15 Listening Scripts FILE 10 Listening 1 Interviewer June Interviewer June Interviewer Thomas Interviewer Thomas June Interviewer June Thomas Excuse me. I m doing a survey about people s holidays. Can I ask you and your husband a few questions? Yes, of course. First of all, can you tell me your names? I m June Smith and this is my husband, Thomas. And are you from Bristol? No, we re from Bolton. We re visiting our daughter she s at university here. Can you tell me about your last holiday? We had a week in Bridlington, on the east coast. It was really nice and we had sunny weather all week. There are lots of interesting things to do there we had some nice walks and visited the museum and art gallery. It wasn t expensive either. And the holiday apartment was very comfortable great views of the sea from our bedroom window. Well, I didn t enjoy it. It was cheap and the weather was nice, but Bridlington wasn t very exciting. It was very quiet in the evening and there was nothing to do. It was sunny, but I couldn t sunbathe or swim in the sea. I like hot countries and I like to go dancing in the evening. And it s better to stay in a hotel. I don t want to cook or make beds when I m on holiday! So, where are you going to go for your next holiday? Well, I want to go somewhere exciting. Maybe New York. I can go shopping during the day and Thomas can visit some of the museums. Then, in the evening we can do some sightseeing and visit some of New York s restaurants and nightclubs. No, thanks! I don t like big cities and sightseeing is boring. I prefer to find places that are quiet and relaxing. I m going to buy a new mountain bike and travel round the coast of Ireland. FILE 10 Listening 2 1 Presenter There s only ten minutes to go until the end of the match and the score is 2 1. Leeds are definitely the better team today and they look very strong. Manchester City aren t playing very well. They scored the first goal, but they look quite tired now. I don t think they re going to get another goal before the end of the game. 2 Presenter 1 Now it s over to Jonathan Hodge for the weather. Jonathan, the weather is really bad at the moment. Is it going to be better later on in the week? Presenter 2 You re right, Tricia. The weather isn t very nice. It s snowing all over the country at the moment, and it s very cold. The average temperature is only two degrees. That s six degrees lower than it usually is at this time of the year. The snow isn t going to stop and temperatures aren t going to get higher. 3 Paul Rosie Paul Rosie Paul 4 Sara Dom Sara Rosie? In the living room, Paul! Hi. What are you doing? I m moving all the furniture into the bedroom. I don t want to get paint on anything. That armchair looks heavy. Let me help you. Be quiet! I m trying to work. But me and Jake are practising. We re going to enter the school music competition next week. There are lots of really good musicians in the competition. You can t sing, and everyone is going to laugh at you! Woman Who s the best person for the job, Jim Brown or Terry Webb? Man Jim has more work experience, but he can t speak German. Terry s German is very good he went to university in Berlin, but he doesn t have any experience. Woman Well, most of our customers are German, so we need someone who can speak to them in their language. That s more important. Man OK, I ll phone them both this afternoon. 10
