[00:01.20]That's not the point.
[00:02.52]Just look at all this new food
[00:04.40]they're experimenting with,
[00:06.09]growing tomatoes the size of footballs.
[00:08.53]I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole.
[00:10.93]I think we need to be careful, sure,
[00:12.99]but clone food could increase food production.
[00:15.81]It's all right for you,
[00:17.02]but what about people in developing countries

[00:40.37]I think you're being too negative.
[00:42.31]If people like you had their way,
[00:43.83]we'd still be living in caves.
[00:47.10]Exercise 2 Listen again and match the worlds
[00:51.13]with the colloquial 1 expressions.
[00:52.07]
