Imagine, everybody wants to have fun, but nothings’ really happening, it’s time for you to show one of your new tricks. Here, you can learn how, and without any need for special materials or much practice. A trick with a coin, a handkerchief and a friend: Put the coin on your palm. Cover the coin with the handkerchief. Ask several people to put their hands beneath the handkerchief and feel the coin, to make sure that it is still there. Then take the corner of the handkerchief and pull it rapidly off your hand. The coin has gone! How? You must make sure the last friend who feels the coin knows the trick and removes the coin when he seems to be just feeling it. And nobody knows where it has gone! A trick with a piece of paper and a pencil: Tell your friend that you can communicate your thoughts without speaking to other people. Write on the piece of paper the word No. Dont let your friends see what you have written. Say, "Now I will communicate this word into your minds." Pretend to concentrate. Ask them if they know what is written on the paper. They will say, "No!" And you say, "Quite correct! I wrote No on the paper!" A trick with an egg and some salt: Ask your friends to stand the egg upright on the table. They wont manage to do it. Say that you can speak to the chicken inside. Say, "Chicken! Can you hear me? Get ready to balance your egg!" When you first get the egg back from your friends, pretend to kiss the egg at the base. Make the base wet. Then put the base into salt which is in your other hand. The salt will stick to the egg. Then put the egg on the table. Twist the egg around a few times as this will arrange the grains of salt. Then it will stand up. Dont forget to thank the chicken. Questions: 1. What does the magician ask people to do in the first trick 2. What happens to the coin? 3. How does the magician prove that he can communicate his thoughts to the audience in the second trick? 4. What is the first step to make the egg stand upright? 5. What else is needed to make the egg stand upright? Keys: 1. B 2. C 3. C 4. A 5. D Part 1 listening two (The following is an interview from a weekly sports program.) Presenter: Good morning, listeners. Welcome to our weekly sports program aimed at all those underactive youngsters with time on their hands! Listen to what our two guests have to say about their hobbies and how their hobbies have made a difference to their lives. Adrienne first, then, Jonathan. Adrienne: I collect very interesting jewelry. I tend to travel a lot as most of my family do, so whenever I have a holiday, I like to go traveling. Whenever I travel somewhere, I like to pick up something to remind me of the place that I visited. And, the easiest thing to do is to pick up a small piece of jewelry instead of getting a poster or a T-shirt that won’t last. I like the idea of having something small and also, I find whenever I wear jewelry from somewhere, it’s a good conversation piece. Usually people ask you, “Where did you get this?” I then have a story to tell, and it’s a good way to meet and talk to people. It’s just interesting. I have jewelry that I picked up when I traveled to Thailand, when I traveled to Africa and when I traveled to Europe. Presenter: Wow! Sounds nice. You’ll have to show your collections to us. Adrienne: I’d love to. Presenter: Thank you, Adrienne. Now Jonathan. Jonathan: I prefer canoeing because youve always got the water there for support. If youre a good swimmer, have a good sense of balance and strong arms, youll like canoeing! The main trouble is transporting your canoe to the right places—my father takes it on the roof of the car—or sometimes I put it on the roof of the club’s Land Rover. What it has taught me most is to be independent. Its just you and the canoe against the wind, the weather and the water. It gives you a lot of self-confidence and it can be really exciting as long as you dont mind getting soaked, of course! It makes you feel close to nature somehow. Last year, when I was qualified, I began to run my own canoeing center. Presenter: So you are making your hobby work for you. Jonathan: People are usually very skilled at their hobbies. The combination of interest and skills is a very compelling reason to choose a particular career. Presenter: Then, Adrienne, do you have a similar plan? Adrienne: Yes, I love making beaded jewelry. I’ve decided to get some formal training. I want to learn how to be a jewelry designer. Questions: 1. Who is the target audience in the program? 2. What is Adrienne’s hobby? 3. What does Adrienne usually buy when she visits a place? 4. How does Jonathan benefit from canoeing? 5. What should be the major concern in choosing a career according to Jonathan? Keys: 1. A 2. B 3. D 4. C 5. B Part 1 listening three Gerry: Ive just been to see Gone with the Wind. It was fantastic. Well worth seeing. Have you ever seen it? Judy: No, but Ive read the book. I dont think I would like to see the film really. It would spoil the story for me. Gerry: Really? Oh, give me a film any day. Honestly, if I had to choose between the film of a story and the book of it, Id go for the film. Judy: Would you? Gerry: Yes. Its much more real. You can get the atmosphere better. You know, the photography and location shots, period costumes, the right accents. Dont you think so? Judy: Not really. I much prefer to use my own imagination. I can imagine how I want it, rather than how someone makes me see it. Anyway, I think you get much more insight into the characters when you read a book. Part of a persons character is lost on film because you never know what they are thinking. Gerry: True, but I dont know. Its much easier going to the cinema. It takes less time. I can get the whole story in two hours but it might take me a week to read the book. Judy: I know, but its so expensive to go to the cinema nowadays. Gerry: I know, but its a social event. Its fun. You can go with your friends. When you read a book you have to do it on your own. Judy: All right. Lets agree to differ. Ill get some coffee. Keys: 1.1. spoil the story 1.2. and day 1.3. Honestly choose the film 1.4. Atmosphere photography location period 1.5. insight into the characters 1.6. social event 1.7. agree to differ 2. Films: get the atmosphere better---photography/location shots/period costumes/right accent easier take less time: two hours an social event: fun, go with friends Books: take more time: one week not a social event: do it on your own books: use readers’ own imagination get much more insight into the characters films: spoil the story expensive Part 1 listening four Sally Marino gets married. After the wedding, there is a big party—a wedding reception. All the guests eat dinner. There is a band and, after dinner, everyone dances. Sallys mother and father pay for everything. At the end of the reception, Sally and her new husband cut the wedding cake and all the guests get a piece. Pete and Rose buy a new house. After moving in, they invite their friends and family to a party—a housewarming party. Everybody comes to see the new house. They look at the bedrooms, the dining room, even the garage. Pete and Rose serve drinks, sandwiches, and snacks. The party is on a Saturday afternoon. It is Christmas time. Ted and Sarah Robinson want to see many of their friends over the holiday. So they invite their friends to an open house. The hours of the party are from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. The guests arrive and leave whenever they want. The Robinsons serve sandwiches, drinks, and snacks. Some guests stay for just 20 minutes, others stay for 3 hours. About fifty people come to the open house. Mr. and Mrs. Todd ask their neighbors to come to an evening party. They dont serve much food, just snacks—pretzels, chips, peanuts and many types of drinks. No one dances. Conversation is important with people asking questions like "Whats new with you?".

Receptionist: The first one is an aerobics class from 8:30 to 9:30 in the morning. Then theres another aerobics class at lunchtime from 12:30 to 1:30. Cathy: Right. Receptionist: Then in the evening from 5:30 to 6:30—another aerobics class too. And theres a jazz dance class from 6:30 to 7:30. Cathy: Right. And what level are they for? I mean, would they be OK for a beginner? Receptionist: The morning aerobics—8:30 to 9:30—is advanced. All the others are at the beginner to intermediate level. But let me give you a schedule. Cathy: Thanks. And how much does it cost for a class? Receptionist: You pay a ￡1 entrance fee and then the classes are ￡2.50 each and ￡3.50 for the jazz dancing. Its there on the sheet. Cathy: Oh, yes, I see. Receptionist: If you become a member, entrance is free and... Cathy: Oh, no, its OK. Im only in London for two weeks. Receptionist: Oh, right. Thats no good then. Cathy: And I guess you have showers and everything? Receptionist: Yes, sure, and in the evenings you can use the sauna free, too. Cathy: Oh, great. So the next class is at 5:30?

Woman: Oh, come on, Steve. Think of the sun! Man: Yes, but think of the cost! Going abroad is very expensive. Woman: Oh, it isnt, Steve. Not these days. Man: Of course it is, Juliet. The best thing about having a holiday here in Britain is that its cheaper. And another thing, traveling in Britain would be easier. No boats, planes or anything. Woman: Even so, weve been to most of the interesting places in Britain already. Whats the point in seeing them again? Anyway, we can travel round Britain whenever we like. Theres no point in wasting our summer holiday here. Man: Mm, I suppose youre right. Nevertheless, what I cant stand is all the bother with foreign currency, changing money and all that when we go abroad. I hate all that. And its so confusing. Woman: Oh, dont be silly, Steve. Man: And whats more, I cant speak any of the languages—you know that. Its all right for you. You can speak some foreign languages. Woman: Exactly. You see, what Id really like to do is practice my French and Spanish. It would help me a lot at work. Man: Mm, but thats no use to me. Woman: But just think of the new places wed see, the people wed meet! Man: But look, if we stayed here, we wouldnt have to plan very much. Woman: Im sorry, Steve. No. I dont fancy another cold English summer. Questions: 1. Where does the man want to spend the summer holiday? 2. According to Steve, what is considered important in planning vacation? 3. What does Steve find confusing about traveling abroad? 4. What will help Juliet in her work? 5. What does Juliet think of summer in Britain? Keys: 1. C 2. B 3. D 4. C 5. B Listening 3 The game of football may have started in Roman times. It seems that the Romans played a game very much like our modern rugby but with a round ball. English villagers played football in the 16th century and they often had almost a hundred players on each side. It was a very common game, which was very rough and even dangerous until the early part of the 19th century. In the 18th century a Frenchman who had watched a rough game of football in a village wrote, "I could not believe that those men were playing a game. If this is what Englishmen call playing, I would not like to see them fighting!" From the mid-19th century, it was played in schools in England and soon spread all over Britain and Europe. Until in 1850, it was not possible to have football matches between one school and another, because each school had different rules! So set rules had to be made. They were not improved though until, in 1863, when those who preferred to play with hands as well as feet formed the Rugby Union while the others started the Football Association (F.A.). It was only in 1863 that the first set of rules for all football clubs was agreed upon. Nearly 150 years later, football has become by far the most popular sport in the entire world. Would that 18th century Frenchman have believed it possible? Questions: 1. According to the passage, when may the game of football have first started? 2. How many team members were often involved in the game when the English began to play the game? 3. What did the speaker say about the earliest football game in England? 4. Why was it NOT possible to have football matches between two schools until 1850? 5. What happened to football in 1863? Keys: 1. D 2. D 3. A 4. C 5. C Listening 4 In one town, there were three longtime friends, Pat, Mike and Bob. Pat and Bob were quite bright, but Mike was rather dull. One day as Pat and Mike were walking down the sidewalk together, Pat put his hand on a solid brick wall and said, "Mike, hit my hand as hard as you can." Mike struck a hard blow, but Pat pulled his hand away from the wall just before Mikes fist hit it. Of course, it hurt Mikes hand very much when he hit the wall, but Pat said, "That was a good joke on you, wasnt it?" Mike agreed, but was not too happy. The following day Mike and Bob were walking in the town square. Mike decided to play the joke on Bob. He looked around, and seeing no solid object, he placed his hand over his face and said, "Bob, hit my hand as hard as you can." Bob agreed, and as he struck a hard blow with his fist, Mike quickly pulled his hand away and was knocked to the ground, unconscious. After a few minutes Mike recovered, and saw Bob worriedly looking down at him. Mi
