[00:08.86]Last Saturday,Debbie arrived at Sunbeam Travel and was given an urgent1 job.
[00:15.70]Mr Yang gave her this information
[00:19.67]and asked her to arrange a tour programme
[00:23.72]for a group of 20 tourists visiting China.
[00:28.08]1 The Great Wall rises and falls,
[00:33.12]twists and turns along the hill-tops of mountain chains in northern China.
[00:40.49]It is the only man-made structure which can be seen from space.
[00:46.73]Construction of the wall began in the fifth century B.C.
[00:52.58]The wall finally took shape in the the third century B.C.
[00:57.76]It is preserved as a historic2 monument today.
[01:02.72]Travellers can go by car or train
[01:07.37]to visit a famous section of the wall called Badaling,
[01:13.01]which is 85 kilometres north of Beijing.
[01:18.47]2 The new Shanghai Museum Building
[01:23.33]is a magnificent3 structure with a square base and a circular4 top.
[01:29.57]The centre of the top is a glass dome
[01:33.65]which looks like a huge bronze mirror of the Han Dynasty.
[01:39.81]The museum's collections of ancient Chinese bronze,ceramics,
[01:45.87]paintings and calligraphy5 are well-known in the world.
[01:51.44]Museum open 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
[01:57.60]3The Peak Tram has been making the seven-minute journey to the Peak since 1888.
[02:06.75]You can enjoy a superb6 view of Hong Kong from the Peak.
[02:12.39]The lower terminus is only a five-minute walk from the Bank of China Building.
[02:19.55]4 The scenery along the Lijiang River in Guilin
[02:25.29]is just like a beautiful landscape painting.
[02:29.76]Take a boat trip,and you will be fascinated7 by the oddly-shaped hills and peaks
[02:36.21]along the river and also their reflections8 in the clear water.
[02:42.09] LISTENING page 42
[02:46.35]Following directions on a map.
[02:50.71]Listen to this conversation.
[02:54.47]The woman is telling the man about her tour of Europe last summer.
[03:01.55]Using a pencil,draw lines on the map of Europe to show where she went.
[03:09.91]Next to each line,write down how she travelled(e.g.by plane),as in the example.
[03:20.96]Woman:We had a very good tour of Europe last summer.
[03:26.52]Man:Where did you go?
[03:29.68]Woman:Well,first we flew to Amsterdam.
[03:35.54]  After a couple of days in Amsterdam,we went to Berlin.
[03:42.62]  We took a train from Amsterdam to Berlin.
[03:48.18]Man:Did you stay there long?
[03:52.15]Woman:Just a couple of days,then we went by bus from Berlin to Brussels.
[04:02.00]Man:Did you see any snow,when you were in Europe?
[04:07.95]Woman:Yes,we went from Brussels to Zurich.We went by train.
[04:15.90] Zurich is in Switzerland and it's very high in the mountains.
[04:23.16]  So we saw some snow even though it was the summer.
[04:28.90]Man:Where did you go after Zurich?
[04:33.87]Woman:Well,we hired a car in Zurich and we drove from there down to Venice.
[04:42.62]Man:Was it difficult to go by car?
[04:47.37]Woman:No,we just had to drive carefully,especially over the mountains.
[04:56.02]  We stayed in Venice for several days,it's a beautiful city.
[05:03.60]  Then we went by bus to Rome.
[05:08.95]After staying in Rome for a few days,
[05:13.91]we went by boat to Barcelona,that's where they had the Olympic Games in 1994.
[05:23.47]Man:Did you like Spain?
[05:27.24]Woman:Yes,but it was very hot.
[05:31.91]We went from Barcelona to Madrid by bus,hence,that was a very hot journey.
[05:40.24]Then we hired a car and drove over to Lisbon in Portugal.
[05:47.90]Man:Was that the end of your tour?
[05:52.76]Woman:Oh,no,we flew from Lisbon by plane up to Edinburgh in Scotland9.
[06:01.53]We spend a day or two there,looking around Scotland,and then hired another car,
[06:10.18]and drove down through England,until we got to London.
[06:16.53]Then we took the new train that goes under the channel
[06:22.56]and went by train from London to Paris.
[06:28.13]Man:You must had been tired by that time?
[06:33.17]Woman:Yes,we were,but we stayed in Paris for a week,just to relax. [06:42.31] And then we flew directly from Paris,back home.
[06:49.47]Man:So,you had a really good tour?

[07:05.40]page 46 and 47  A Talk time
[07:12.07]Using extra stress to highlight10 important words.

[07:33.25]2 Do not stress other words(e.g.,a the,is,have,etc.)except for special reasons.
[07:51.51]Here is a third rule:
[07:56.26]3 Give a little extra stress to the most important word in the sentence.
[08:05.41]Note that you,the speaker,decide what the most important word is[08:13.35]Exercise A1
[08:17.11]MARIA:What do you think of my new camera,Boris?
[08:23.27]BORIS:It looks a bit strange.What kind of camera is it?   MARIA:A Toyota.
[08:33.54]BORIS:A Toyota?That's the name of a car,not a camera.
[08:41.61]MARIA:But look.The name's on the case.

[09:26.13]BORIE:It's got its name on its face.
[09:30.88]MARIA:Yes,but look at how it's spelt.

[12:08.35]Taking notes from interviews.
[12:13.00]Debbie has asked four tourists what they liked and disliked about Hong Kong.
[12:20.44]Listen to then answers and make brief notes.
[12:26.68]lst man:Well,I guess the thing I'm enjoy most is the food.
[12:32.85]I have to admitted I do like my food,as you can see from my size.
[12:40.50]The food in the hotel is just excellent.
[12:45.26]We usually have breakfast and dinner in the hotel,
[12:51.71]and then have lunch out somewhere.
[12:55.97]And the thing I like,is the variety of food you can get here.
[13:02.52]We've had French food,Indian,Thai,and what else...oh,yeah, Japanese.
[13:11.90]We are just having a great time,
[13:16.26]but when we get back home,I'm going to a have to go on a diet.
[13:23.03]1st woman:  What do I like most? Oh, the shopping.
[13:29.38]There are so many shops here,it's wonderful!
[13:35.73]I'm not interested in taking tours,I just like to shop,all day long.
[13:46.17]There are two things I really like,I like shopping for clothes. 13:54.72]I just got to have the latest fashions,and I like collecting antiques20.
[14:05.35]So I often take a cap up to Hollywood Road,
[14:11.83]and check out the antique19 shops there.
[14:16.97]Mmm,of the one thing I don't like is the heat,it's just too hot for me.
[14:28.23]It never gets this hot back home.
[14:32.99]It's all right if you're in somewhere airconditioned,like Pacific place.
[14:42.23]But if you're outside,well,it's just too hot for me in the middle of the day.
[14:51.90]So I often stay in my hotel,and then go out again in the evening.
[14:59.37]2nd man:Well,I like the views best of all.
[15:04.41]Hong Kong just looks so amazing.
[15:10.05]I like the view of the harbor21 at night if you go out of the Peak Tram.
[15:17.03]And I like the view of Hong Kong from Kowloon side.
[15:23.59]I like some of the buildings very much too.
[15:28.84]You have some of the most interesting buildings in the world here.
[15:36.10]The Hong Kong Bank Building,the Bank of China,the Central Plaza22.
[15:44.46]What do I dislike? Oh,the crowds,I think.
[15:51.43]I come from a small town myself
[15:56.40]and I'm not used to being in a middle of so many people all the time.
[16:03.45]It's difficult,if you want to get somewhere quickly.
[16:09.30]But I don't really mind it too much because I like watching people.
[16:16.67]So I just go along with the crowds[16:21.73]2nd woman:Well,I have my two young children with me
[16:27.19]and they don't really enjoy shopping or seeing Museums.
[16:33.15]So I took them out to Ocean Park,and we all had a really good time there.
[16:41.80]So I think that is the thing I like most about Hong Kong.
[16:47.75]They liked seeing Beethoven's and so on.
[16:53.11]We all enjoyed Ocean Park.
[16:57.47]Oh,I supposed it's over noise,that's what I dislike.
[17:04.31]Our hotel room is quite near the street,
[17:09.07]and we have traffic noise all day long.
[17:13.93]I'm not used to the noise of the airconditioner,either.
[17:18.89]And almost everywhere you go,it seems to be noisy.
[17:24.45]There's the traffic,building sites,and people shouting,
[17:31.32]but we still enjoyed our stay here very much.
