[02:47.18]Number 3 Listen to the tape and write as much information in the table as you can.
[02:55.07]Bart:  So Mary, do you really like living in London?
[02:59.83]Mary:  Yes, for most of the time I ... I really love it,
[03:04.89]Bart, there are so many things to see and do there and they're very easy to get to.
[03:09.86]I mean, I love the theatre, for example,
[03:13.20]and there's ample 2 opportunity to see whatever the best things are that are going on there.
[03:17.69]Of course, it's not cheap and so one can't really go all that often.
[03:22.68]Bart:So you don't ... you don't really go very often to the ...
[03:26.94]Mary:Well, not a lot, but there's the cinema too.
[03:30.76]Sometimes I'm able to take in a film, and there are lots of other good things, just about London itself.
[03:37.63]Sometimes I feet I really love 'the bustle 3 and the feeling and atmophere of London,
[03:43.32]and especially the river, Which I 1ove, very much.
[03:46.98]There are good trips, by the way, that you can take on the river.
[03:50.58]Bart: Do you ... do you like driving in 'London.?
[03:53.64]Mary: Oh no, I hate it. In fact I don't do it at all if I can possibly avoid it.
[03:59.41]Everyonehere is so aggressive 4 behind the wheel of a car, that's really bad, especially at rush-hour times.
[04:07.48]In fact rush-hour, of course, is just awful.
[04:11.69]I loathe 5 the rush-hour--er--in any form of transport but the tube,
[04:16.68]you're standing 6 shoulder to shoulder and everyone's packed together.
[04:20.91]In the mornings you feel exhausted 7 before you arrive at work.
[04:24.99]Bart:  So you like the things that London offers but you don't like getting there?
[04:30.11]Mary: That's right. There are some things that I just don't like about London.
[04:34.52]I don't like the noise particularly, that really gets on your nerves 8 sometimes.
[04:40.37]So there are lots of things that you'll be able to do and see here.
[04:44.63]Bart:  Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
[04:47.53]Mary:  How about ... how about the zoo--do you like animals?
[04:51.58]Bart:  No, I don't really like going to the zoo. I don't mind it,
[04:56.83]but I don't really like it because I don't like seeing the animals all caged in
[05:01.09]and they can't walk around or run around as they should be able to.
[05:04.72]Mary:  I hate the lion-house for that reason, too.
[05:07.96]Bart:  And I hate dealing 9 with crowds of people, I really do.
[05:11.67]I like cities, butI hate dealing with crowds of people.
[05:15.59]Mary:  Well, the crowds of people, the rush-hour and the other thing I dislike,
[05:20.24]which is the dirt here and the noise, are one of the reasons why l really like to get out of London,at the weekends,
[05:26.97]so that I can get away for peace and quiet and relax and' build up my reserves 10 for next week.
[05:33.17]Number 4 Listen to some foreign students talking about what they like or don't like about Britain.
[05:42.26]First, listen to the example.
[05:45.34]For me, coming from Spain, there's one big advantage to living in Britain
[05:50.88]and hat s the postal 11 service--it's really efficient.
[05:54.40]Do you know, I got, a letter from Edinburgh  yesterday.
[05:57.88]I,looked at the postmark and then I looked at the date on my watch,
[06:02.32]and Iwas amazed 12 -- it,was posted the daybefore and it had only taken one day to reach me!
[06:08.30]The boy was Spanish, and he thought one of the best things in Britain was the postal, serviee.
[06:15.69]Now listen to six other people, and fill 'in the table in your book.
[06:21.18]As you can probably hear.
[06:24.08]I come from Genmany NOW one thing I've noticed is perhaps a small detail about the British way of life' but I love it,
[06:32.05]and that is the way you have your milk, delivered, every day,to your doorstep -- it's marvellous 13!
[06:39.23]I don't tike the beer here at all.
[06:41.74]It's warm! At home in Denmark, the beer's always cold,the way it should be.
[06:48.06]But to get it here, you'have to ask for 'lager', not 'bee'. That's strange.
[06:54.90]I'm sorry but I find the weather really depressing 14.
[06:59.11]It's the middle of July and it seems like winter--day afterday it's greyand cloudy.
[07:04.62]The only change is when it rains-- and that happens ,every time you don't' take your umbrella !
[07:10.37]I brought summer clothes, but I've had to buy two thick sweaters hem 15.
[07:15.57]And when I get letters from my family in Greece,, they're complaining,that it's too hot !
[07:19.98]The French, have a very good reputation 16 for their ,food and the British a terrible reputation.
[07:27.09]Now, I'm not going to say that the food is the best thing about Britain!
[07:30.95]But I have to ,admit that I just love English desserts-- the puddings and trifles 17 are delicious.
[07:37.46]I find most young people here are aggressive, not nearly as friendly as old people.
[07:44.77]If I'm lost, I never ask a young person to help me.
[07:48.48]I can't understand what's the matter with them.
[07:51.72]Perhaps they don't like foreign people in their town. We're not like that at all in Portugal.
[07:58.49]The traffic is much more disciplined 18 in Britain than in Turkey.
[08:02.51]People drive more ,slowly, and they respect traffic  lights and other drivers.
[08:08.02]The cars  actualty stop for you at zebra crossings! Unbelievable!
[08:12.64]Number 5 Listen to two people talking about places they know,and make notes.                                                                                                                                                                                       :     !:<ii  '
[08:21.34]Every year for the last few years we've visited our friends in a small tiny little village in the middle of France
[08:30.46]and they bought a cowshed and it was literally a cowsshed with,
[08:34.53]not fit to live in and they have gradually made it better an renovated it
[08:39.68]and it's in a beautiful position-it's on the top of a hill
[08:43.36]and for miles around you can see this beautiful countryside,
[08:46.97]and I think only one other house so you do neet a car,
[08:51.49]and you take the car the tiny little village where there are about four or five shops
[08:56.66]and a very nice restaurant where you can go and have a five course meal
[09:01.47]for very little miney an also near is  a very big lake
[09:06.09]beautiful this place is in the Dordogne an there are lost of lakes there and we go there most afternoons an windsurf and sail.
[09:14.11]Also there's a very nice market-French market there once a week where you get lovely pates,
[09:20.67]lovely fresh fish,really good fresh fish and lovely bowls an baskets which th local people have made.
[09:28.22]I like this part of France very much but I think it's shame that there are too many English people there.
[09:38.82]What kind of city is it?It's a very modern city.
[09:43.97]I expected that Tokyo would be quite old but there are very few parts of it which are old in fact at all
[09:51.28]because it was firebombed during the Second World War by the Americans,
[09:55.36]there are one or two temples that survievd that but basically it's a city that's been built since 1945.
[10:02.59]Um,a lot of it is low rise;one-two-three-storey houses because of the earthquake danger,'cos they get lots of earthquakes.
[10:12.26]Once you've mastered a little bit of japanese it's relatively easy to get around ToKo
[10:18.21]because they've got an excellent subway system and it's quick an easy to get around.
[10:23.05]The problem is course that Tokyo is a city of thirteen,fourteen,fifteen million poeple
[10:29.24]an they all want to get around at exactly th same time,
[10:32.35]er,so especially if you're travelling in hte rush hours,eight o'clock in the morning,
[10:37.47]five o'clock at night ity is a question in how many of the big stations of being pushed on to the train
[10:44.99]they pay student sa bit of extra pocket money to do this.
[10:49.25]Right in the centre of Tokyo is the Imperial Palace,and that's set in delighful gardens,
[10:55.02]but it's completely closed to the public so nobody ever sees it.
[10:58.99]In the rest of Tokyo there are ten,twelve public gardens but they tend to get very filled up with people,
[11:06.83]especially during national holidays and what have you.
[11:09.81]Other than that it's just street after street an block after block of very similar houses,
[11:15.27]as I say one-or two-storeyed houses which just go on and on for mile after mile
