Task 2 (3-4 minutes)
You are discussing what special event to organize during the Arts Week. These are your ideas about each option:
| + | – | ||
| A picture exhibition | - I think everyone likes to draw since her / his childhood. So this idea may appeal to our friends. | - I don’t really like this idea. It seems childish to me. - It takes a lot of time first to collect the pictures then to place them on the wall. | |
| A musical | - We could perform a piece from a famous musical. They are very popular now. | - The idea is not bad, but it requires many people to be involved, plus time to rehearse, to practice music, to design costumes. | |
| A disco | - I am in favour of this idea. We could invite some pop group and dance to live music. | - I think we all are bored to death with school discos. | |
| A photo competition | - A fresh idea. I am sure that everyone has got an album with exciting pictures that will be interesting to look at. | - I am not sure that this idea will interest our schoolmates. | |
Note: Make sure all the options have been discussed.

Speaker 1
In Spain I lived in a flat with students from the local university. In my drama class I met a Spanish girl who was looking for someone to speak English with. We became best friends and we spoke half the time in English, and half the time in Spanish. I also joined a gym and had great fun trying to do an aerobics class which was not a difficult task though the instructions were given in Spanish. On Sundays I went to the cinema and only watched Spanish films. Now I’m quite good at Spanish.
Speaker 2
I went to China to work as an English language teacher because I wanted to understand people who live in China. It took me a long time before I met local Chinese people with the same interests as I had. I met even more interesting people thanks to them. I had great fun and left China with a better understanding of the lifestyle of ordinary Chinese people.
Speaker 3
The first foreign language which I studied was French. I learnt it at a secondary school. Between school and university I spent three months working on two farms in southern France. This helped me to speak easily in French and to get a rich vocabulary connected with farming. I can still speak and read in French quite well. However, my written French is rather bad.
Speaker 4
I have always been good at languages that’s why I studied French and German at high school. To brush up my French and German I took part in a few student exchange programmes. But then I thought that my chances of finding a good job might be improved if I chose a more unusual language. I considered Chinese,
Japanese and Arabic. Finally I decided on Chinese and Japanese, which I studied at the University of Leeds. During my second year I spent a term studying Chinese in China, and another term studying Japanese in Osaka.
Speaker 5
I began learning Arabic because I planned to visit different Arabic-speaking countries, including Morocco. Using a textbook I learnt Arabic pronunciation, the Arabic script, a few words and a bit of grammar. Soon I spent some weeks in Morocco. Unfortunately I found out that my French was much more useful than the little Arabic I knew.
Speaker 6
Many years ago I was given an Irish whistle as a birthday present. I liked it so much that soon I started to collect Irish tunes, songs and albums, it became my favourite occupation. I enjoyed listening to Irish music so much that I started playing it myself. As I listened to and played Irish music I got interested in the Irish language as well. And you see, my hobby led me to the decision to start learning the Irish language.

Now we are ready to start.
Mother: Morning, Ted.
Ted: Good morning, Mum.
Mother: I’m making scrambled eggs. Shall I make some for you or would you rather have a sandwich?
Ted: No, thanks Mum. I’ve already eaten. I got up early . Did you see some sandwiches? I made some sandwiches earlier. They were right here.
Mother: They’re in the fridge. You have enough sandwiches to feed a small army. Why don’t we do something together today?
Ted: I’m sorry, Mum. But I’m busy from morning till night.
Mother: Where are you going?
Ted: To the park.
Mother: Why? What’s happening at the park?
Ted: Don’t you remember, Mum? It’s Riverdale Day.
Mother: Oh, that’s right. Today’s the day when everyone helps clean up the town parks.
Ted: You know they’re doing something special to improve the playground area.
Mother: They want to make it bigger or smaller?
Ted: Not bigger, it’s big enough. Mostly they want to make it safer. Do you remember my friend Jimmy? He broke his arm on the playground last year.
Mother: Jimmy? The tall guy with freckles on his face? He has a job as a lifeguard at the town swimming pool. Right?
Ted: That’s right. He and I will be working together today. Jimmy’s father is a builder, and he’s bringing a tractor to make the rough ground smooth. He doesn’t want Jimmy to break his arm again.
Mother: There must be something I can do to help you. I could do some painting or any other job.
