M: Could you suggest some ways to bring family members closer together? W: Well, I feel it is very important for families to have regular meals to?gether. One of my good childhood memories was dinner with my parents and two sisters. Because my husband and I both worked and our three children were busy with their studies, we seldom had a chance to get together as a fam?ily. But we thought it would be possible for us to sit down and enjoy meals together every week. First we tried setting fixed days: Mondays,
Wednesdays, and Fridays. But almost everyone was unhappy. Then my son had the idea that everyone told his or her most convenient days and I would choose the two best days. For a while the children were still unhappy with the idea. They said they would rather spend the time with their friends playing sports. Gradually, though, they began to see the evenings together as
interesting and helpful. We loved a lot. We made plans for trips. We discussed each other’s problems. After a couple of months anyone who had to miss a family meal felt regretful. And now we all feel than we have been able to build stronger relationships within the family that we had before.

W: There are many interesting stories about how a baby learns to say its first
word. Now Mike, would you like to share your story with us?
M: OK, here’s my story, I was about 18 months old I think and I had just started to say my first word. Every time a truck went by, I would shout a word that sounded like a track, but to eve?ryone else, it sounded nothing like it. My parents tried to cor?rect me, but failed. Then, about three months later, we traveled to New York, as we were waiting for our plane at the air?port. I looked out of a huge window, at that very moment I saw the largest truck in the world, I had to tell someone about this. I turned to my father who was standing next to about a thousand people waiting for the very flight and screamed “Track! Track!” My father tried hard to shut me up, but I was so excited, I kept screaming my special word. My poor mother decided she didn’t know this baby and then ran into the ladies-room where she hid until I finally stopped. Well, I learned how to say truck correctly, and soon I was talking like a normal child. Howev?er, my parents will never forget the very first word I pro?duced in my life.

M: Good afternoon, everybody and welcome to this class on English words. I hope that all of you can hear me. If not, please let me know. I am Pref. John Morris. I’ll be your teacher for the next 13 weeks. As you can probably tell, this is one of popular and crowded classes. Indeed, every time these courses are offered, this room is very full. Why is that? Well, in order to use the English language, it’s very important to have at least a basic understanding of how words are formed. Just to mention one figure, and there are many. There are about one million words in English. If you are an English learner, you might wonder how you can possibly remember all of these words. Well, for one thing you don’t have to. No native speaker exists who knows all of the words in the English language. Besides, there are shortcuts. Shortcuts?
Yes, for example, if you know how words are formed by using parts of words from other languages, such Greek and French, you’ll understand a good number of English words when you first come across them. Let me put it this way. Knowing the rules will help you master a large number of words. This is probably the No. 1 reason why this class is so popular.

M: Air pollution is so bad in this city. I think the government should stop people from drivingcars on certain days.
W: You have a point, air pollution is a problem. But not letting people drive on certain days isa bad idea. People have to go to work by car. M: I'm afraid I don't agree with you there. Reducing air pollution is really important. People areso used to driving that they don't think of other ways to do things. If we stop them fromdriving on certain days, maybe they could think of new ways to get around.
W: I see your point, but I still think it wouldn't be possible to stop people from driving. Text 8
M: Let's go and have lunch together. W: OK.

M: Not yet. I am planning to book my flight in two weeks time. W: Book your flight right now. M: Why?
W: Because the longer you leave it, the more expensive it will be. As a matter of fact, the pricesmay double at Christmas time. New Zealanders usually
go home for Christmas.
M: Then I'm going to book my flight tomorrow morning. Text 9 M: Hello.
W: Hello, Mike. This is Jane. M: Oh, hello, Jane.
W: Listen, Mike, I've got a real problem. M: What is it?
W: The car's broken down. M: Oh, not again.
W: Yeah. I checked the oil and I checked almost everything. It's just not
starting at all.
M: You have to get rid of it, you know.
W: I know, I know. But look, the thing is I've got to pick Tom up at the
airport. Can I．..
M: Use my car? Yes, of course.
W: That will be great. It's very kind of you.
M: Come around when you like. I don't need it until tonight. W: OK, I'll be around in about an hour. Thanks a lot. M: It's all right. See you then. W: See you. Text 10

W: My notebooks, or a few books for homework.

M: Ok, I watch people a lot, I do that when I travel, I have been to many countries such as Britain, Italy, and Sweden. So I spent a lot of time at the airports, while waiting for my flights, I watch people passing by and start my imagination. For example, the other day when I was waiting for my flight to
Greece, I saw a couple, they were buying magazines at that moment, they were not wearing business clothes, but the man was carrying a suitcase, every few seconds, the women looked around, I wondered someone was following them. Perhaps they were running away and, you know, this reminded me of a story in the newspaper that day: a banker stole one million ponds a week before and disappeared with his wife, there was a picture of them in the paper, the couple really looked like the thieves, maybe I should stop them. Just then, I saw them say goodbye to each other. And the women walked away. Well, sometimes I make mistakes like that, but I find things like that very useful for my writing.

children fromsecondhand smoke when they smoke outside their home or only when the children are notthere. But now researchers are warning about what they call thirdhand smoke. When yousmoke, dangerous matter from cigarettes gets into your hair and clothing. As babies are
theweakest, when you come to a baby, you pass it to the baby and increase the chances ofdisease in the baby.
M：Is that so? In that case, I have to say that I should never get close to a
baby.

M：We are glad to have Dr Garfield to talk to us today about dreams. Let me
start by askingthe first question. Does everyone dream?
W：It appears that everyone does. Mostly when people say that they never
dream, what theyreally mean is that they don't remember their dreams or they don't think their dreams areimportant. The reason behind is that they might have been made one with a child when theyfirst report their dreams or it was so frightening that they just turned off
dreamingcompletely. The other day someone named Davis came to me and said that he used to be agreat dreamer, but suddenly he stopped having dreams. I asked him what had happened. Itturned out that his brother died of a heart attack and he never expected that such a terriblething would happen to a young person. Generally, when they are with some frightening eventsand dream about it was too terrible, people prefer not to dream about it. Actually, the worstthing you can do is stop dreaming, because it means that the bad experience was too painful toeven appear in dreams. As long as you are dreaming about it and even if the dreams arefrightening, your mind is working on it. My personal opinion about what dreams do is that theyhelp us deal with our problems. We see certain patterns take place in dreams. When a personis hurt deep inside, when a person is seriously ill, or when a person has been really sad, ifpeople turn off their dreams totally, it means they don't allow themselves to even think about it.

Where can you look if you want to know how tall the tallest person in the world is, or who the oldest person in the world is? There is only one place where you’ll find all these information, and that’s in the Guinness Book of World Records. This morning we have someone from the Guinness Company that produced that famous book, Thomas Manning. “Welcome to the program, Thomas!” “Thanks, Sue. It’s a pleasure to be here.” “Perhaps you could start by telling us where the idea for the book came from.” “Well, it was first suggested in the early 1950s. Sir Hugh Beaver, the managing director of Guinness, was out shooting birds with some friends. A bird flew away so quickly that no one was able to shoot it. Sir Hugh wondered whether this bird was the fastest bird in Europe, and if it wasn’t the fastest, he wondered what was.” “So I suppose he went to the nearest library to look for the information and he couldn’t find it?” “Yes, that’s exactly what happened. And this made Sir Hugh think there must be other people in the same situation who wanted this kind of information. He thought that, like himself, people would be interested in finding facts of all records to satisfy their curiosity.” “So the idea for a book of records was born. And when did the first book come out?”“A few years later, in 1955. So, to ask your first question: the tallestperson in the world is 231.7cm tall. And the oldest person is Jeanne. L. Calment, who was born in February, 1875.”“There are also some rather strange records, aren’t there, Thomas?” “Yes ,that’s right. Did you know, Sue, that the shortest time it is taken …”

At the beginning of the tour, we all started the most important place at my town which is the Plaza Leon. The Plaza Leon is more than 100 years old.

Hemandes Street which was named after writers born in the city contains all of the food stalls fish markets and vegetable stands. Femando Street which was named after a famous educator is where all of the government offices, shops and houses. Via del Mar Street which is the only street which has old stone surfaces. Finally we came to the Hewish’s Street on which there are two universities, one of which is the most famous university in my country. That’s why it’s my favorite street of all.

M: Well, I'd love to share with you my personal opinions on city life and life in small towns. Igrew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced thegood and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like living in a big city, but I waswrong. After ten years of living in one, I can't imagine ever living in a small town again. Surelysmall towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town,you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can't get around without one becausethere isn't any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensiveparking, but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving.So, if you don't have a car, you'd better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. Ican always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows. However, these things arenot common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet differentkinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I thinkthat living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course,safety should be considered, and that's one area where small towns are better than big cities.Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.

Look at this picture. It?s the London Tea Trade centre. As you can see, it is on the North Bank of the River Thames. It is the center of an important industry in the everyday life of the British people. Tea is the British national drink. Every man, woman and child over ten years of age, has an average over four cups a day, or some one thousand five hundred cups annually. About 30 percent of the world?s export of tea makes its way to London. And Britain is by far the largest importer of tea in the world. Now in the second picture, you can see how tea is tasted in the Tea Trade Centre before it is sold. Here, different types of tea are tasted by skilled tea-tasters before they are sold at each week?s tea sale. It?s amazing to see them at work! Over a hundred kinds of tea are laid out in a line on a long table. The tasters generally taste tea with milk, since that is how the majority of British people drink their tea. The tasters move down the line with surprising speed, tasting from a spoon and deciding what is a fair price for each tea. After that, they….
