AUDIO SCRIPTS Module 1 My name is Alex, or Alejandro in Spanish. My family are from Mexico, but we live in London. I’m 18 and I’m an economics student at London University. This is my family: my mom, Elena. She is 41, and my dad, Enrique is 53. He has got a computer business here in London. Then this is my sister, Beatriz. She is at school. I’ve also got a little brother, Lucas, he’s only three. He’s really great…really, really funny. This is my mom’s sister, Lourdes . I think she is about 36 or 37. She is a really big lawyer in Mexico. She is very clever, I think. She hasn’t got any children… she isn’t married. And this is my dad’s brother Roberto. He is a businessman. He’s got four or five shops in Mexico City. I think he is quite rich. His wife’s name’s Isabella. She is a Spanish teacher. She is really nice - really funny, and they have got two children. Bella’s about 6, I think, and Mateo’s 4. Module 2 I have not much time to relax. In my free time I usually listen to music, watch TV and videos, read books and magazines, play computer games. The computer is one of my many interests. That’s why programming and computer technology are my future professional sphere. Every weekend I spend a lot of time in the world wide web. I use the Internet in the educational process and, of course, for fun. I have a great number of web friends and we like talking to one another using a web camera. I have a big collection of CDs and records. They include reggae, rock, pop, classic music, jazz. I can say that reading is also my favorite pastime. Books bring pleasure and delight. From books we learn to express our thoughts and feelings more exactly. Books are the richest source of information. My friends and I often exchange books and discuss them. Among my favorite genres are fantasy, history, philosophy and technical literature. I think that hobbies and interests are an important part of our life. They help people to develop, express themselves and relax. They can be funny, educational, satisfying in different ways. So, it’s good to have many hobbies. But the problem is to find time for all of them. Module 3 Steve: Hi Susan, did your new Spanish class start today? Susan: Hi Steve. Yeah, it was great fun. Hola! Steve: Hey, you learned something already! So, tell me about the other students. Susan: Well, first I want to tell you about the teacher. She's crazy! Her name in Maria and she's from Malaga in the south of Spain. She's about 35 years old and is a really friendly person. She's very funny. It's difficult to understand her accent sometimes but I'm sure it will get easier. Steve: How many students are there in the class? Susan: Oh, about 12 I think. Everyone is about the same age, so that's great. Steve: Where are you going, where are you doing the lessons? Are you at the college near the tennis club? Susan: No. We're at the town library. We are using a small room at the library so it's really quiet and all the books are right there! Steve: Are the other students all American? Susan: Most of them are, yes. There is a Japanese girl called Miko. She is probably the best in the class. Her accent is wonderful. I think she studied Spanish at school. Steve: Ah ha... Susan: And then there's an English boy called James. He lives here and works at the university. He wants to learn Spanish because he hopes to go to Argentina next year. He is very young, about 22 years old. Steve: And the rest of you are American? Susan: Yes, apart from James and Miko, the rest of us are American. I met your mother's friend Rosemary. Steve: Rosemary? Who's she? Susan: That friend your mother plays tennis with sometimes. Steve: Oh, Rose Marie! Why is she learning Spanish? She speaks Italian and French already! Susan: Well, maybe she wants to be multi-lingual. She speaks really well. I feel so stupid in that class and that's after just one lesson! Oh dear.... Steve: Don't worry Susan, maybe I'll come by next lesson and then I will be the worst for sure. What did you do in today's class? Susan: Because it was the first lesson only, we did some basic things like the numbers to ten and how to ask a person's name. Steve: OK, ask me my name in Spanish! Susan: Oh! Erm, I can't remember. Como ti, come te yama, como ti yamo, oooh! I can't remember anything! Steve: (laughs) I will come to the next lesson and help you! Module 4 The Moscow Metro is a rapid transit system that serves Moscow and the neighboring town of Krasnogorsk. Opened in 1935 with one 11-kilometer line and 13 stations, it was the first railway system in the Soviet Union. Currently, the Moscow Metro has 182 stations. Its route length is 327, 5 kilometers. The system is mostly underground, with the deepest section located at 84 meters below ground, at Park Pobedy station. The Moscow Metro is the world’s second most heavily used rapid transit system after Tokyo’s subway. Module 5 Lake Baikal is one the oldest lakes in the world. It is located in the very heart of the largest continent in a rift valley between two tectonic plates. There is a theory that Lake Baikal is on its way to become an ocean basin. Its shores are spreading apart at the speed South America is moving away from Africa. The Lake contains 20% of the world’s fresh water resources. In the course of millions of years its closed ecosystem formed a unique natural environment which should be carefully studied to gain a deeper understanding of the evolution of life on our planet. This region of Eastern Siberia is of particular interest to world science. Here the steppes are gradually replaced by Siberian boreal forests, the mountain ranges form diverse landscapes of forest: Alpine meadows and Alpine tundra. This is the land of crystal clear lakes, clean rivers, and magnificent waterfalls. Lake Baikal has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. Module 6.
