Guide 1 Commentator 1 [FX football crowd] We‟re in the 75th minute of the World
Cup Final. It‟s Brazil 2 Germany 1. Robinho passes the ball to Diego. Diego back to Robinho. Robinho shoots – and he scores! What a goal!
2 Commentator 2 [FX hushed voice, crowd silent] And the 100 metre sprint is
about to start. [FX starters pistol, crowd roar] And they‟re off. Brown had a fantastic start … Brown is in the lead. … Powell is just behind him. … And here comes Powell … He‟s passing Brown … Powell wins – it‟s a very fast time – 9.97 seconds.
3 Commentator 3 [FX tennis – lengthy rally] What a great shot! The French girl
is really hitting the ball hard today. Her opponent can‟t win a point!
4 Commentator 4 [FX ice hockey] And we‟re in the final minute of the match.
It‟s five goals each. Here comes the Czech forward again – he shoots – but he misses the goal! The goalkeeper kicks it away with his skate. Who is going to win this match?
5 Commentator 5 [FX golf] And his car is slowing down! She‟s still about 150
metres from the hole, and this is her third shot. She‟s really having a bad day. The crown become quiet as she prepares to hit the ball again – and it‟s a terrible shot. Oh dear. I think the ball is in the river this time.
6 Commentator 6 [FX basketball crowd – ball bouncing] Smith throws the ball to
Jones. Jones runs forward and passes the ball back to Smith … Smith shoots. Yes, it‟s in the basket! The score is 36 all.

15 kilos on the bar. That‟s a very heavy weight indeed now – 165 kilos. Can he lift it? Let‟s see … ah, no he can‟t. And I think he‟s in some pain now. But he‟s smiling – that‟s good to see.

At the Sydney Olympics in 2000, the biggest cheer from the spectators at the swimming pool came when Eric Moussambani finished the 100 metres freestyle. Eric didn‟t win the event. In fact, his time was 1 minute 53 seconds, the slowest time in Olympic history. Eric, from Equatorial Guinea in Africa, only learned to swim eight months before he competed in the Olympics.
In a tennis match between Pete Sampras and Patrick Rafter, Rafter became angry with himself when he missed an easy shot. He gave his racket to Chad Little, one of the ball boys, andshouted: “You play.” Chad didn‟t know what to do, so he got ready to play the next point against Sampras. More than 10,000 spectators cheered.
[Radio programme about the history of the race] The idea for a boat race between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge
started with two schoolfriends, Charles Merivale and Charles Wordsworth. Merivale went from school to Cambridge university, and Wordsworth went to Oxford. On 12 March 1829, Cambridge sent a note to Oxford and challenged them to a race. The race took place a few weeks later on the river Thames (Oxford won it easily) and a tradition began. By 1856, the race was an annual event. In the 150 years since then, the boat race has provided lots of interesting and exciting moments.
1859 was a bad year for Cambridge. Their boat sank. In 1877 nobody won or lost the race - the result was a dead heat – in other
words, both boats finished the race at exactly the same time. However, Oxford believed that they won the race easily, but the referee was asleep and didn‟t see it!
In 1912, both boats sank. The race took place again the next day. In 1938, the boat race was on television for the first time. Not many people
watched it though, because only a few people had TV sets in their homes at that time.
1981 was an interesting year for the boat race, for this reason: Sue Brown became the first woman to take part. She was the cox for the Oxford team.
1984 was another bad year for Cambridge. Their boat crashed into another boat before the start of the race. The umpire had to abandon the race for that day while Cambridge prepared another boat. The race took place the next day, and Cambridge lost.
1998 was a more successful year for Cambridge. They won the race and set a new record for the course: 16 minutes and 19 seconds, the fastest time in history.
2003 was a very exciting race. Oxford won, but only by a few centimetres. That year, two members of the Oxford team had brothers who were in the Cambridge team.

On 1st August 1976, Niki Lauda was racing in the German Grand Prix when he had a terrible accident. The weather was bad – it was raining and the track was getting wetter and wetter. As Lauda was going round a corner, he suddenly lost control of his Ferrari. The car crashed and caught fire. Another driver, Guy Edwards, was coming towards the corner when he saw Lauda inside the burning car. He stopped and pulled Lauda out.

in the city. There isn‟t much entertainment, but there‟s a lot of beautiful scenery
and it‟s very peaceful. I love living here.

Interviewer Good morning and welcome to the programme „Country Eye‟. This week on the programme we are looking at the beautiful region of North Wales, and finding out about what life is like for the people who live there. First of all, we have three young people from North Wales here in the studio. Welcome to the programme, Bryn, Gareth and Bethan. All Thanks! I First of all we are going to hear from Bryn. Bryn – can you tell us a little about your life there? Bryn Yes. Well, I was born on our farm in the village of Dolanog a little village near Welshpool, and I‟ve lived there all my life. My first language is Welsh – we speak it at home – but I learnt English at school. My dad‟s a sheep farmer and I‟ve helped him on the farm for as long as I can remember. I think the Welsh countryside is a wonderful place to grow up. As a kid, me and my brothers had a lot of freedom to run about. Everyone is very friendly, but life is difficult sometimes. There isn‟t much money in sheep-farming, and the winters can be hard. Interviewer So, do you think you‟ll stay in North Wales, then? Bryn Oh, yes. I wouldn‟t want to live anywhere else. When I finish school, I want to study agriculture at college. But then I‟ll come back to look after the farm with my dad. I What about you, Gareth? Do you feel the same way? Gareth Actually, no, not at all. I come from the small town of Llangollen. I‟ve lived in Llangollen all my life and I can‟t wait to leave! I mean, Llangollen is beautiful. Quite a few tourists come in the summer to go walking in the hills or visit the famous music festival. It is a nice place, and I enjoyed living there when I was younger, but not any more. Nothing happens and there‟s nowhere to go! I want to meet new people and try new things. I‟m interested in computers, so I‟m planning to go to a university somewhere like London or Cardiff. I want to try city life! I So Bethan, are you planning to leave the Welsh countryside as well?
Bethan Well, no, not really. I live in Caernarfon – it‟s a small town on the north coast. I‟ve been there all my life, but I don‟t know if I can stay. You see, there aren‟t any jobs for people there, especially young people. A lot of young people are moving out of the area because of this. I love where I live. I think it‟s a beautiful place to live in, but I think that I‟ll never find a good job there. After I leave university, I‟ll probably have to live and work somewhere else, and I think that‟s sad. I I‟m sorry to hear that, Bethan. Well, you‟ve heard the views of some young people from the region. What are your views? Call the programme now or send us an email, and we‟ll read out your opinions at the end of the show. Meanwhile …

Number 1 Lucy from Australia
Lucy We aren‟t formal here, not at all. We generally treat everybody the
same, whether they‟re an important company director or a shop assistant. So, for
example, when you get in a taxi in Australia, you should sit in the front, with the
driver, not in the back. There aren‟t many rules about behaviour – but of course,
you shouldn‟t be rude. Actually, one thing that‟s quite rude in Australia, but not in
some other countries – in Australia, you shouldn‟t wink at a woman. If you do, they
might get quite angry with you!
Number 2 Haruki from Japan
Haruki Many people think that the Japanese don‟t show their feelings in
public. I think this is probably true. At least, it‟s true that we‟re quite formal. One of
the nice things about Japanese people is that they‟re very polite – and they expect
other people to be polite too. Sometimes people are rude without meaning to be,
because they don‟t know the customs. For example, in Japan, you shouldn‟t cross
your legs when you‟re in a formal situation – crossing your legs is very casual.
When you meet a woman for the first time, you should bow to her – you certainly
shouldn‟t kiss her on the cheek, like they do in many European countries. And if
you visit somebody‟s house in Japan, it‟s rude to look in the kitchen. Many visitors
don‟t know that, and they do it by mistake!
Number 3 Ludmila from Russia
Ludmila Although many parts of Russia are very cold, I think the people are
very warm. They‟re friendly, too – and helpful. If you get lost in Russia, somebody
will always help you to find where you‟re going. In fact, they‟ll often actually take
you there themselves! When Russians meet, they often greet each other with a
hug. Men and women do that. Strangers often shake hands, but close friends kiss
each other. Traditionally, they give each other three kisses because three is a

Darryl Hannah is a Hollywood star who cares about the environment. Her car is very unusual because it doesn‟t use petrol – it uses vegetable oil. „Vegetable oil is better than petrol because it produces very little CO2,‟ she says. „If all our car used it, we wouldn‟t produce so much CO2. It‟s also renewable – we can grow it. If more people had cars like mine, the world‟s farmers would earn more money.‟

Mark Can I ask your advice about something?
Lucy Sure. What‟s the problem?
Mark I lent £20 to Joe last week and he hasn‟t paid me back. I think he‟s forgotten
Mark Yes, but it‟s embarrassing. He might get upset.
Lucy If I were you, I‟d say “I‟m a bit short of money, Joe. When do you think you
could pay back £20 you borrowed last week?” He shouldn‟t get upset at that.
Mark OK. Thanks. That‟s a good idea.

Sally Why won‟t they let you stay out?
Will Well, one day last week I got home very late because I missed the last bus.
It was nearly midnight, and they were very cross because I didn‟t ring them or
answer my mobile.
Sally Did you apologise?
Will They didn‟t give me a chance. We just got into a big argument.
Sally If I were you, I‟d say sorry for being late last week, and tell them you‟ll make
sure you‟re always back before 10.
Will OK. I‟ll give it a try.

The speckled band – part 1.
At 7.15 in the morning, Sherlock Holmes wakes Doctor Watson and tells him that there is a visitor downstairs: a young woman called Helen Stoner. She is very frightened, and she has come to see Sherlock Holmes to ask for help. He asks her to explain why she is frightened. Helen Stoner tells Holmes that she lives in the south of England with her step-father, Doctor Roylott. Doctor Roylott met Helen‟s mother, a widow, when they were both in India. Her father had died a few months earlier. Helen and her twin sister, Julia, were only two years old when their mother married Doctor Roylott. Helen Stoner explains to Holmes that her step-father is a violent man. While they were living in India, somebody burgled their house and Doctor Roylott was so angry that he murdered one of his own servants. He spent a long time in prison for his crime. Then, he came back to England with his wife and daughters. Soon after they got back to England, Helen‟s mother died in an accident. This was eight years ago. Six years later, the sisters were no longer children. Julia was planning to get married. One evening, two weeks before the wedding, Helen was in Julia‟s room, talking to her. Julia mentioned a strange sound – a whistle – that she sometimes heard at night. Helen said she hadn‟t heard it. She left the room and went to bed. Later that night, Helen woke up when she heard her sister scream. She ran to Julia‟s room. Julia opened the door. She was in terrible pain. She said something about a “speckled band”. Their step-father came, but he couldn‟t do anything to help Julia. She died in a few minutes. What had she meant when she talked about the speckled band? It was a mystery.

Part 2 Now, two years later, Helen is planning to get married. She is frightened because she has started to hear a strange sound at night – a whistle – just like her sister mentioned before she died! Helen thinks that her own life is now in danger too.
Sherlock Holmes visits the house. He examines the room where Julia was sleeping when she died. He notices that there is a rope by the bed. This room is now Helen‟s bedroom. Gradually, Holmes works out what has happened. He agrees that Helen‟s life is in danger and tells her that she cannot sleep in the room tonight. Holmes and Watson wait in the room overnight, while Julia sleeps in another room. For hours, nothing happens. Then suddenly they hear a whistle. Holmes jumps up and hits the rope by the bed with his stick. A few seconds later, they hear a terrible scream. They go next door and find Dr Roylott sitting in a chair, dead. Around his head is something that looks like a band of speckled or spotty material. Then it moves. It‟s a snake! Holmes recognizes it as the most poisonous kind of snake in India. Holmes reveals that it was Doctor Roylott who murdered Julia and was planning to murder Helen. He had brought the snake back from India and trained it to go from his room, down the rope, to the other bedroom. He gave it instructions by whistling! When Holmes frightened the snake by hitting the rope with his stick, it went back and attacked Doctor Roylott. One bite was enough to kill him in ten seconds.
