VIII Lesson 10 Listening and Grammar (tapescript)

N Hi, Wanda. Did you have a good holiday?

W Oh, yeah, we had a great time. But I have to tell you – the most amazing thing happened.

N Really? What was that?

W Well, Roy and I were at the beach near the hotel and we were swimming in the sea - it was our first day – and this huge wave came along and knocked my sunglasses into the water. I…

N Why were you swimming in your sunglasses?

W Oh, I don’t know. I’d just left them on top pf my head. I’d forgotten they were there. Anyway, they were gone. I couldn’t find them anywhere. I was really upset. You know Roy had given me those glasses for my birthday. And they were really expensive.

N I remember – nearly £100.

W Yeah. Anyway, I had to have sunglasses, so I bought a new pair – just a cheap pair this time. The next day I was lying on the beach, sunbathing. Then, suddenly another huge wave…

N you didn’t lose another pair of sunglasses?

W No, no. I’ll never believe this. There was another huge wave. It completely covered me. I was so wet and…

N Are you sure this was a good holiday?

W Yeah – but listen! When I looked down, there on the sand, right next to me, were my expensive sunglasses. The ones I had lost the day before. I couldn’t believe my eyes!

N You’re joking! That is amazing!

X Lesson 3 Jigsaw reading Text b

Leaving home - Jackie Snow talking about her life in London.

I came to London two months ago because I want to be a professional dancer, and the best schools of dance are here in London. I'm doing a course at the National Dance School, which is very hard work, but I'm really enjoying it. The course is expensive, but I work with a theatre group at the weekend. We teach dance to groups of children. I'm living with another girl in a Rat in north London. It's small, but it's comfortable. My boyfriend, Tony, lives in the same street with his parents. They're very kind, and often cook meals for me.

I know my parents are worried about me living in London, but it isn't dangerous at all if you're careful. It's so exciting here, there's so much to do and see. It was difficult in the beginning, especially getting to know the Underground, and I didn't know many people, but it's fine now. I have a lot of good friends. I love my Mum and Dad very much, but I don't want to live at home for the rest of my life. I phone home every Sunday, and when I go to a museum or art gallery, I always send them a postcard. Mum reads them, but I don't know if Dad does.
