Interviewer: WE spoke to some girls to find out their opinions about sport.

Speaker 1: I play tennis quite often, and it's a great form of exercise. It keeps me healthy. It's imporzam to stay in shape and a good game of tennis really makes your body work. Everyone needs to find a way to get some exercise andfor me. it's tennis.

Speaker 2: I'm not really very interested in most sport, but there is one 1 like — motor racing. Some people think it's boring to just watch cars going round and round, but I love it. It's really exciting, and it takes a lot of skill. I'd like to try it, but I think I'd be a bit frightened because they go •very fast.

Speaker 3: WE 've tried a few different sports at school, and 1 really like playing volleyball. It's a great feeling when you know you've played better than the other team. You have to be quite fit do it well. I'd like to play again, but none of nyfriends are interested I think I need to find a ream in my local area.

Speaker 4: I love going to football and basketball matches. 1 try to go every weekend, with my fiends. What I like about those sports is that the players have to work together to be successful. You can be a fantastic player. but without the others, you're nothing.

Speaker 5: I like sport, buz I don't really take it seriously. Wzhnthg and losing aren't very Important to me, but spending time with my friends is. We get together every Saturday and play a different sport —football or baseball, usually. It's a lot offun.

Speaker 1: Up until a few years ago, I never wore dresses and skirts. I hated them, and felt much more comfortable in trousers usually jeans, to be honest. Now, though — I suppose it's since I started my new job — I actually wear skirts quite often and I must say 1 really like them! I think they suit me, and they're a lot cooler than trousers in the summer!

Speaker 2: Yeah, I do follow fashion a bit and I'd never wear something that 1 thought was really out offashion. I mean, if you do that, you just end up looking stupid, and I certainly wam people to think I'm well dressed Other people judge you by what you wear, don't they, so I try to keep up wzth the latest changes.

Speaker 3: IfI knou I'm going to be at home all day, I'll just put on an old pair ofjeans and a T-shirt, but I'd never wear something like that to work — or if I was going out in the evening. You've got to think what's suitable for what you 're going to do, haven*t you? You wouldn wear a swimming costume to a wedding!

Speaker 4: Well, I hate shopping for clothes — I can 't stand it — so ,YZOSt of my clothes are a feu years old, at least! When I get up, Ijust put on the first thing I find that's clean. I don't really think abouz hou fashionable it is or what iz looks like on me. I'm lust not that interested in my appearance, really.

Speaker 5: I¥'7zat you wear can really affect how you feel about yourself, so 1 am a careful, yes. For example, ifyou've got an important job interview or something like that, you've got to uear something that's smari obviously, but more importantly, you've got to wear something you feel good in. You don't want to be sitting there thinking: 'This jacket doesn't fit me properly.'

Speaker 1 : I make model aeroplanes. I've been doing it for about five years now, and I think I'm beginning to understand it! You have to make a lot of very bad models before you make a good one. You learn from your mistakes, though, and practice makes perfect, as they say. It's important not to give up, but just keep on tryzng until you get it right.

Speaker 2: There's nothing like the feeling you get when you 've got a fish on the end ofyour line. 1 first went fishtng with my Uncle Derek when I was very young. I loved it from the start. It's good to learn a new skillfrom someone who knous you so well because you don't mind making mistakes. He taught me the basics, but I was soon gang out to the river on "-ty own or with my friends.

Speaker 3: Karate, That's my hobby. It looks like il could be dangerous, but it's not really. The biggest risk is hurting yourself because you're nor fir enough to do it. It's not a good idea to do karate ifyou aren't already in good shape. Get some exercise and then try karate. That's what I tell people. Once you're ready to try it, though, it can be a really enjoyable hobby.

Speaker 4: My hobby is walking in the countryside. There are lots of walks to go on in this area, and you always find someone to chat to. People are usually very friendly when they are out walking, and we talk about the weather, or the beautiful views. It's tnreresting to hear aboar all the places they've been walking in. money than they're askingfor it. Sometimes, I sell Stamps for a

bit more than I paid for them. That way, I have little extra money to spend on more stamps.

Situation 1

Woman: There have been quite a few burglaries around here: and some of the residents are quite concerned. They say that it's getting more dangerous, but the police seem to behe•ue Thai it's just a small group ofyoung men causing all the problems. Of course, some people are very angry, bur I'm sure that things'!! get better once the police find the people responsible.

Situation 2

"6rnan.•You've heard other programmes about football, and seen the matches on zelevision, bur it's tame for something neu. This Friday on Sportchaz Radio, we're bringing you the stories you never hear — the spectators' stories. What's it like to be in the stadiums around the country, following your team an all weathers, win or lose? Do they agree with the experts or do they have their own views? mne in on Friday az 8 pm on Sportchat Radio.

Situation 3

Man: We had a great time. Well, I say 'great'. We actually spent a lot of lime in the hotel, which wasn't so good. 1 mean, they looked after us very well, and it was a very luxurious place. It's just that we wanted to get to the beaches and the rain wouldn't let us. It's a shame when you've spent so much money, but I don't suppose there ²s much you can do about it.

Situation 4

Wbman.• I think you've just been working zoo hard Stress can often affect us physically, especially If we don 't have time to eat properly. IT's easy to think the solution is taking rime off, but then you get back to your desk and face the same problems. The main thing is, when you're not at your desk, try to go for walks, or maybe even take up an outdoor sport. I'm sure you'll see a difference.

Situation 5

Woman: The Eurovision Song Contest was on TV last mght, and it does make me laugh! 1 mean, the music is pretty ordinary, and you don't see many stars in it these days. The only thing that keeps me entertained is the way that you just knou that some countries are going to gave other countries lots of potnz,s. It's the same every year.

Situation 6

Man: This match really has reached an exciting point. You can feel the excitement in the spectators. They knou this is critical. The umpire has had to make some tough decisions, and the players haven't always responded in a respectful, professional way, so let's hope that these last few games are played in the right spirit.

Situation 7

Man: It's really not good enough. I've already brought the camera back to be replaced once and now this one's gone wrong, too! And no, the money's no good to me. I took some pictures on holiday that I wanted to keep, and now they're lost forever. 1 think you'd better find the person in charge so that I can complain.

all day in the office, especially when it's raining! No, I think the only problem is that my salary hasn't gone up for a year. A little more money and il would be the perfect job for me, really

Speaker 2: You get used to living out of a suitcase in this job. I can 'l tell you how much time I've wasted in hotels. Most of whar I do is meet people from other companies and try to get them to buy my company's products. To be honest, I think I'd like to do the same job, but in an office.

Situation 1

Man: Like everyone else, I've got a mobile, and I really don 't know how anyone lives without one. It can be really annoying when you leave home and forget to take your mobile with you. I never use mine when I'm driving, though. There have been too many cases where people haven 't been concentrating on the road and have been chatttng and the next thing you know, bang. You really should stop to make a call.

Situation 2

Man: It's called Digital Music and it comes out once a month. I never miss an issue. I like writing my own music on my computer, and I even make my            CDs to give away to friends. WII, Digital Music is all about that. They have great articles by experts on hou to get the most out ofyour programs. I think that's why I

get it, because I never read any of the interviews with musicians.

Situation 3 llbman.• I went to Mary and Paul's wedding last month. Oh, what a disaster! WII, the wedding itself was lovely. Mary was so beautiful in her dress and people had come from all over the country to be there. Anyway, some of us were invited to a meal after the wedding. all got into our cars and drove to the restaurant, and we had been there for twenty minutes when we realised that Paul's parents didn't know the way. It took them two hours to find us. They weren't happy, I can tell you.

Situation 4

Girl: I've been having lessons for a few months now, and my test is in another month. I was quite nervous at first, but you soon get used to it. My dtfficulty is the road signs. There are so many to remember, and they just get mixed up in my mind. I've got pictures of them on my bedroom wall to help me remember. Ijust hope I get it right on the day.

Situation 5

Man: Crack Up is the great new game that everyone 's playing! Simply take one of the Crack Up cards and do what it tells you, Ifyou can get everyone laughing at your hilarious                 you could be Crack Up champion! The question is, can you do it without laughing yourself? Crack Up is for everyone, from eight to eighty! Play Crack Up today.

Situation 6

Wornan: I've got one brother, Terry, who's two years older than me. He went to live in America about ten years ago. I've been out to see him a couple of rimes, and we try to speak on the phone about once a month. It would be nice if he could come here and see how I live, but he always seems to be working. We were really close as children, but then you each have co live your oun life.

Situation 7

Woman: Do you know the park round the corner? Well, I used to be frightened to go in there at night and it was always such a mess, with rubbish everywhere. They've done up and put some _floaer beds in and more Izghts and it doesn'l look too bad now. Maybe local people will start to use it again.

Speaker 1: I always 100k forward to going to school, and I think I am quite a good student, but several times a week we have what are called 'double periods' and they're awful! Can you imagine? I mean, fifty minutes of history ts fine, but when it's a hundred minutes it just seems to go on forever! Double chemistry's the worst. It's almost two hours of absolute boredom!

Speaker 2: Wk have seven or eight different lessons a day and that's okay — unless we've got a test, of course — but the real problem is that every teacher gives us things to do before the next lesson. I spend hours each evening preparing for the next day. It would be okay if it was just for one or two lessons — that wouldn 't take too long — but it's all of them!

Speaker 3: There aren't any subjects that I don't like, but my favourite lesson has to be maths. I just really lcn•e solving problems and it all seems really easy to me. I don't knou why people have such difficulty with it. Actually, I think I'd like to teach maths when I'm older. I'm sure J could explain it quite well. I'd set lots of tests and give loads of homework, though!

Speaker 4: My friends think I'm really strange, but I always look forward to wken we have exams and tests. I'd much rather spend the evening at home revising.for an exam than, say, having to write an essay or do lots of exercises. Maybe it's because I've got a good memory, but I think exams are a really good way to show what you 've learnt.

Speaker 5: I've only been at this school for a couple oj weeks, but I feel quite comfortable already. It's really similar to my old school, you know — lessons are the same length, we get about the same amount of homework each night — and the teachers seem really nice. I've made a couple offriends already and I'm sure

I'll make more as the year goes on.

Speaker 1 : My parents both worked when I was young, so they were ouz Of the house quite a lot. I used to be looked after by my grandma and granddad. They would take me out to the park and we had a lot offun, and then my parents would pick me up when they finished work. I was a very happy child, and I Siill have a great relationship With them today.

Speaker 2: I had to work really hard to make friends because we had to move house quite often. Dad was in the army, and they would send him to another job and wed all have to him. It's not easy suddenly to arrive in a neu place when you're eight, or eleven, or thirteen, but toe managed. My sister was quite shy and I think it was harder for her.

Speaker 3: You wouldn't think it to look at me now, but I was a real city kid. 1 love the farm, and my own children love it too, but it's nothing like my life back then. lived in a block offlats near a motorway. I never dreamed that one day I'd be the sort of person who likes looking after animals. I haven't been back and I wonder sometimes whether il's changed. I knou I have.

Speaker 4: Until was about eighteen, we lived next door to a garage and it was really noisy and smelly. There were always lots of cars around, and I used to Wish that we laved m the countryside because I hated the smell of and petrol. It was close to Mum '5 work, though, so zee couldn really move. I was glad When ) finally went away to university and found somewhere else to live.

Speaker 5: There's a supermarket there now, but when was little there were a few houses and a small park there. We used to play in the park and tee had really nice neighbours. They knocked the houses down about ten years ago. It's strange to think that those places only exist in my memory now. I sometimes think about those days when I visit that supermarket.

loud, but Ijust feel like I've seen one too many of them. It seems like just another bank robbery movie until you get to the last five minutes, and I suppose the ticket's worth it for that alone. I won '1 give it away, but the characters aren't what they seem. You should go and see it ifyou've nothing berter to do.

Well, I'm afraid I'm hopeless when it comes to these things so I took it to a garage. I was worried it might be a big thing, and then he said it was gozng to cost over five hundred pounds! I had no way of knowing whether that was right or not, so Ijust told him to do it. I'm so useless! Maybe doing a course in mechanics might help save me some money!

Girl: It's the way she just walked into my room without knocking that annoyed me. She wanted borrow some money TO go our with her friends. So I'm doing my homework when I suddenly hear a voice behind me saying: 'Gor any money?' Well, I was furious because it's not the first time she's come in withoul permission. I started shouting at her and threw her out. In fact, I did have some cash, and she could •have borrowed it, even though I don't understand why she wants to go out with that group of people. She just has learn to knock next time.

Speaker 1: Yes, I've basically decided whal I want 10 do •iohet'l I grow up. I really want to be a leacher ill a primary school. It musl be so satisfytng teaching young kids to read and write and seeing them start to learn about maths and science. I know It's hard work, and the pay'S not very good, but there are more important things than money, aren't there?

Speaker 2: I'd really like a job where I'm going on busmess traps all the time. You knew, gotng to other countries and places I haven't been to before and staying in really nice hotels. It sounds really exciting, doesn 't it? Lots ofpeople have jobs like that these days — and some of them earn quite a lot of money too — so ] think it's possible that I'll be able r.o get a job like that when I'm older.

Speaker 3: Well, my uncle's a travel agent. He's goz a shop in the High Street and I often help ham out at weekends. I'm learning a lot about the business — it's really interesting — and I think it's something I'd like to do too when I'm older. I know my uncle will be pleased if I follow in his footsteps, and I can't actually imagine myself dQing anything else, to be honest.

Speaker 4: I'd hate to have a job where you go to an office and sit at a desk all day In fact, I don't really want to have a job at all! I really enjoy Studying — I know it sounds Strange — so when I leave school, I'm going to go to university to do a degree. If I do well, and I hope 1 will, then I'll stay on after my degree to do research. Who knows? I may be a professor one day!

Interviewer. And now as part of our regular Monday morning look at some of the things people in rhe local community have been doing recently, we're joined by Alan Dawson. Alan, hi, Thanks for coming in. Alan: No problem.

Interviewer. Now, Alan, we're going to be seeing you soon in a major Hollywood movie, IS that right?

Alan,                 Well, yes and no, Gloria. I'm pretty sure I be in the film, yes. But I don't know Whether you'll notice me. I'm not one of the stars, you see. I was an extra.

Interviewer. Okay. Let's start at the beginning. What's the movie?

Alan                It's called Battle of the Chants and it stars 'eff

Piper and Celia McCullum.

interviewer: And some Of the scenes were she! in the local area, were they?

Alan:                 Well, put i: like this, Most         was done in

Hollywood, but I think people who live round here

will be able to spot a few local landmarks in the battle scenes!

Interviewer: Right! So how did you get involved in the movie?

Alan: About six months ago, I saw an advert in the local paper asking for extras. 1hey said acting experience wasn't important, you didn't have to be particularly good-looking, you didn 't have to have any skills really —just a desire zo be in the background of a film.

Interviewer: And you applied?

Alan: Yes, I thought it sounded really interesting, You know, apart from a couple of school plays when I was a kid, I've never done any acting and it's not often a chance like this comes up, so Ijumped at it. Interviewer: And what happened after you applied?

Alan: For about three months, nothing. Then, one day, I got a phone call asking me if I was still interested. I said I was, so they asked me to come to an interview the following week,

Interviewer. That interview — was that some kind of audition?

Alan:                 Not really. I didn 't have to do any acting or anything like that and as soon as 1 turned up, it

became clear that I could be in the film if I wanted to be. I think the real point of it was to take ny measurements so they could make a costume for me!

Interviewer: And how long after that did you have to actually act in the film?

Alan:                 About two weeks later. I'm not sure Id call it real acting, though and I didn't have any lines to learn. I'm in six or seven crowd scenes, just standing around really. And in one scene with a few other extras we had to run away from one of the giants.

Interviewer: Did you enjoy it?

Alan:                Oh, it        great fun!

Interviewer. And have you seen the finished film yet?

Alan:                 No, it hasn't been released yet. But as soon as it comes out at the cinema, I'll be going.

Interviewer: I'll make sure I see it too. I'll be looking out for you!

Alan:                  I hope you spot me!

Speaker 1: I get on very well with my parents. Whenever I have problems with my friends or with my schoolwork, I know they're always there to listen and give advice. They've taught me a lot. They've got a lot of experience and they're always happy to share their knowledge with me.

Speaker 2: My mum and dad want me to go into the family business. We've got a restaurant and they've always thought I'd beconze a chef. They don't like the fact that I actually want to become a policeman. Wé've had arguments about it, but they have to realise that it's my life and I have to make my own decisions.

Speaker 3: Mum and Dad are okqy, but they seem to think I'm san a kid When Igo out With friends, I ahxzys ha. to be back home by ten o'clock and they call me on mobüe to check uhere I on. I hate to ask permissionfor almost eærything I do. It doesrù seem fair sometimes. Speaker 4: Wbrk is very important to my parents and they both have very good careers. The thing is that when I've got problems, they're usually too busy to sit down and talk about it. It seems like every weekend one of them is off on a business trip somewhere, and I miss them. I wish we could be together a bit more. really.

Speaker 5: My parents never had the chance of an education, and I think that's why they want me to do well at school. That's fine, but I wish they would relax a bit.

MTS Hormcks: Oh, hello. Yes, I've been expecting you. The problem is the roof. Let's go into the garden and I think you'll be able to see what the problem is.

Builder:    IS it this way?

Mrs Horrocks: That's right. Let's go round the side of the house.

Budder.              Okay. Yes, a 10t ofpeople round here have had the same problem. Last week 's storm did a lot of damage and these old houses just can't take high winds.

Builder:             Yes, it's easy to miss these things. Now, where is It?

Mrs Horrocks:lfyou look up there, to the right of the chimney, you can see what's wrong.

Builder.        Yes. Some of the tiles are missing. I'll only need a day or two to fix that.

Situation 1

W6man: More and more women are playing football these day5, and at my club there are lots of garls who want to get involved. The biggest problem is that newspapers and the TVjust don't pay us any attention. I'm sure there's an audience out therefor a successful team like ours, but they newer get to see us.

Situation 2

Woman: Tired Of camping Or staying in a caravan because a hotel is just too expensive? Now you too can envy comfort and service. Poundmaster Hotel is a new concept in hotels. Within easy walking distance of some of the best restaurants in town, Poundmaster gives you a basic hotel experience al a prtce you won't believe, We're able to do this because we know that you don 't want the swimming pools, the saunas and the hairdressing salons you might find in some hotels. Wk gave you exactly what you do need to enjoy a good ntght's sleep.

Situation 3

Man: By deciding to build the sporrs centre ourside town, the council are making clear their commitment to developing the surrounding area. The increased tourzsm will be a bag boost to local people, and it avoids the increase in Traffic that building it in the town centre would have caused.

Situation 4

Wornan: Ah, Vincent. just the man I wanted to see. I knot" you're on yoür lunch break, but it won't take a minute. I don't want to make a big Issue our of this, but it's âbout your

time-keeping. You know I have to leave each day in the afternoon to go and see what's happenmg th the other office, and I don't want any more reports ofyou disappearing at four thirty. Do I make myself quite clear? Now please don't be late back after lunch.

Situation S

Man: I 've been patn¿zngfor a few months now and I enjoy it a lot, although you see ptctures for sale in a gallery any time soon! There's a lot of satisfaction in making something that's attractive. You have to learn rely on your own judgement about a picture while you're working because no two people see things tn the same way. When you finish, though, it's rewarding when somebody else says That they like what you've done.

Situation 6

Vibman: Well, I was driving along the road — not far from home, actually — when this idiot just pulled out right in from of me. I didn't have any time to react and went into the side of his car. He was very apologetic, and admitted that iT was his fault. I always thought that I'd panic in a situation like that, or get really angry, but to my surprise I was actually quite calm. The police arrived about fifteen minutes later and took everyone's details, and then I went on my way, half an hour late for work.

Situation 7

Man: The argument goes that you are grown up at sixteen and you are old enough to knew what you want, so why shouldn't you be able to vote for the government you want? I'll tell you why not — because you don 'r have the maturity make a sensible choice at that age. You're still discovermg a lot about the world and about other people, and that kind of imporzant decision should be left in the hands of adults.

Speaker 1: I've always been very slim and that's not because I don't eat a lot. I do! 1 have breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, and sometimes have snacks between meals too. The thing is, ir just doesn seem to matzer what I eat. Even if I have a really meal, I never seem to get fat. It's great because it means I cal eat what 1 like, when I like!

Speaker 2: I know I should be more careful about what I eat, but 1 do seem to ear a lot of crisps, sweet-s andjunk food I think it's because of job. I don't have time for proper meals during the day, so I just have lots of-slacks at desk. I know rm a bi overweight, but then lots ofpeople are, aren 't they? It doesn't really bother me.

Speaker 3: 1 decided to become a vegetarian when I was about sixteen. I started by just giving up red meat, like beef, and that was easy, so then I stopped having things like chicken and pork too. It's great, actually. Ifeel very healthy and I don t miss it at all. There are lots of other things you can have instead,

Speaker 4: I really do believe that the first megl of the day ts the most important. I usually only have a snack for lunch and don't have a big meal in the evening, but as soon as I get up I like to have a big bowl of cereal, some toast, and maybe even an omelette too. It gives me the energy to keep going all through the day.

SPeaker 5: I put on weight really easily, so 1 have to stop myselJ from eating too much. If I'm in a restaurant, I'll usually choose just a small salad Or something like that, rather than a steak or a big meal. I hate otherwise 1 know the next day I'll look in the mirror and think, 'Look! You 're fatter than you were yesterday!'
