First you have some time to look at questions one to seven.

...:

Now listen carefully and answer questions one to seven.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Good morning, East Coast Rail.

EAST COAST RAIL:

How may I help you?

HELEN:

Yes, hello.

HELEN:

I left something on a train yesterday.

HELEN:

I got this number from the internet.

HELEN:

Is this the right number to call?

EAST COAST RAIL:

Yes it is, madam.

EAST COAST RAIL:

I can certainly help you with that.

EAST COAST RAIL:

I just need to take your name so I can fill out the lost property form.

HELEN:

It's Helen Flynn.

HELEN:

That's F-L-Y-N-N.

EAST COAST RAIL:

OK, I've got that.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Now you say you left something on the train?

HELEN:

Yes.

EAST COAST RAIL:

I just need to take some more details from you and I'll see what I can do.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Can I take your address please?

HELEN:

Yes, it's 57 the High Street, Greenside.

EAST COAST RAIL:

And the postcode?

HELEN:

L-W-3-9-B-Q.

OK, madam.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Now you say that it was a bag you left behind.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Can you describe it for me?

HELEN:

Well, there wasn't anything special about it really.

HELEN:

It was black and just a shoulder bag really.

HELEN:

It was leather.

EAST COAST RAIL:

And what was in the bag?

HELEN:

Let me think.

HELEN:

It was my college bag, so there were some books, papers, pens and stuff.

HELEN:

Oh, and also my umbrella.

EAST COAST RAIL:

OK, I've got all of that, thanks.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Now, which train were you on yesterday?

HELEN:

It was the train from Newcastle to Greenside.

EAST COAST RAIL:

And do you know what time it arrived in Greenside?

HELEN:

Hmm, let me see.

HELEN:

It was later than the train I normally get because I went to the library to study.

HELEN:

It was ten o'clock, I think.

HELEN:

No, wait, it was later than that.

HELEN:

I arrived at half past ten.

EAST COAST RAIL:

OK, and do you know which carriage you were sitting in?

I've got all the details I need now.

...:

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions eight to ten.

...:

Now listen carefully and answer questions eight to ten.

HELEN:

So, what happens now?

EAST COAST RAIL:

OK, I will process this form onto our system, then when we find lost property items, we index them all and enter the details into our computer before we can match them up.

HELEN:

How long does that take?

EAST COAST RAIL:

That can take up to five days from when the item was left behind.

HELEN:

That's a long time.

EAST COAST RAIL:

Yes, I'm sorry, but we do have a lot of items left on our trains.

HELEN:

OK, what happens after you've done that?

HELEN:

Do I need to call you back or will you send me an email or something?

EAST COAST RAIL:

No, we will call you if we find your bag on the phone number you gave me.

EAST COAST RAIL:

If you don't hear from us in the next week, then please do call for an update, but the chances are that if we don't call you, then your bag wasn't found.

HELEN:

OK then, will you post it to me if you find it?

EAST COAST RAIL:

No, you need to come and collect it from the lost property office.

HELEN:

Where's that?

EAST COAST RAIL:

It's behind the ticket office in Newcastle train station.

HELEN:

And do I need to bring anything with me?

EAST COAST RAIL:

Yes, we will need to see some ID.

HELEN:

OK, like a letter from my bank or something?

EAST COAST RAIL:

It will need to have something with a photo on it, like a driving licence or passport or something.

HELEN:

OK, no problem.

❓ Tapescript section 2

Larswater

Now look at part two.

You will hear a podcast produced by the Tourism Authority at Larswater, a lake in England.

First you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14.

One of the most beautiful lakes in England has to be Larswater.

It's a glorious lake, surrounded by wooded hills, which in the old days were famed for their hunting.

But things have changed since the 19th century, the days when poet William Stanklin called the area home.

Stanklin is still associated with the area and visitors can still visit the house he lived in, which is open to the public throughout the year.

Larswater gained fame in 1953, when a man called Ricky Shorting set a national water speed record with his speedboat, reaching 325 kilometres per hour.

These days, safety rules have slowed the pace of life on the lake, although the Yacht Club still does host an annual weekend of racing, which takes place at the start of July.

And if you're sporty and you fancy something even more energetic, well, each June there's also the Lake Challenge, in which swimmers cover the whole 9 kilometres from end to end.

These days, many visitors come here for the hiking.

One popular route is the Larswater Way, a 22 kilometre circular trail around the lake.

Now, while that might sound like quite a distance, let me reassure you, the great thing is that the route itself doesn't involve any steep climbs or big hills, it's actually pretty gentle going all the way.

And if you don't want to walk quite so far, you have the option of taking the bus some of the way round, or buying a ticket to use the ferry network, the Larswater Steamer, to get where you want to be on the walking route and save your legs.

If you want further details, you can register with the Friends of the Larswater Way website and receive more information and updates about this lovely route.

Before you hear the rest of the podcast, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 15 to 20.

Right, let's look at the map and explore the geography of the area in a bit more detail.

Some visitors find themselves staying in the little village of Goughton.

Now, if you look at the map, you'll see the dashed line going across the lake, representing the ferry route from Splidding to Turley.

But on its way, you'll see it makes one stop, just short of half way.

Well, that's Goughton.

It's handy for visitors to know whereabouts to park, and one such place is at Coyne Car Park.

Now, you'll see the main road out of Splidding travels north for a bit, and then takes a sharp right turn before going east.

Well, just at that corner, that's Coyne Car Park, but it does fill up quickly, so you'll need to get there early.

What else?

Oh yes, there's an ancient stone circle put there about 4,000 years ago.

To get there, well, if you see where the village of Turley is, and then there's a footpath from Turley going directly south, heading away from the lake.

Then, as far away from the lake as it gets, it comes to a turning and heads back towards the lake.

Well, the stone circle is at that bend.

Now, especially if you do go all the way around the lake, you're likely to go through Paterdale at some point.

That's the village just after the lake ends at the south-west, just beyond Splidding.

And it's where the road meets up with a footpath that follows along the south side of the lake.

Another prehistoric settlement is Maiden Castle, at least the remains of it.

To get to that, as you head west away from Turley on the footpath, that's the dotted line on your map, you come to a point where there's a loop, so you've got a choice of two possible paths.

But just before that split is Maiden Castle.

And if you're feeling really energetic, or you want to get away from Larswater and explore another valley, there's always Grisedale.

That's a valley just west of Splidding, which you can get to on the road, heading away from Larswater.

Also well worth exploring.

That is the end of part two.

You now have some time to check your answers.

✅ Đáp án đúng: A

🧐 DOLBIE lưu ý:

❌ B (poetry festivals): Chỉ nhắc đến nhà thơ William Stanklin từng sống ở đây, không có lễ hội thơ thường niên.

❌ C (day trips to go hunting): Có nhắc xưa kia vùng này nổi tiếng về săn bắn ("which in the old days were famed for their hunting") nhưng hiện tại không còn hoạt động săn bắn nào. ❌ E (speedboat demonstrations): Chỉ nhắc kỷ lục năm 1953: "Ricky Shorting set a national water speed record", hiện tại đã có quy định an toàn nên không còn các màn biểu diễn speedboat nữa.

George and Lisa's project

...:

Now look at part three.

...:

You will hear a lecturer setting up a task in a seminar for students on a public health degree course.

...:

First you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.

...:

Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 25.

LECTURER:

Right everybody, in a moment I'm going to ask you to work in pairs and plan a piece of action research.

LECTURER:

Present your findings to the class and write them up, okay?

LECTURER:

And the research question I want you to investigate is this.

LECTURER:

To what extent do the main sports facilities in the town contribute to the health and well-being of the residents?

LECTURER:

I'll repeat that.

LECTURER:

To what extent do the main sports facilities in the town contribute to the health and well-being of the residents?

LECTURER:

Okay, so over to you.

GEORGE:

Alright Lisa, shall we work together?

LISA:

Okay George, sure.

GEORGE:

I've made a note of the research question.

GEORGE:

I knew I'd forget the wording if I didn't.

LISA:

Me too.

GEORGE:

Thing is though, the main sports facilities, I mean, that could mean anything.

LISA:

True.

LISA:

So it's up to us to say what it covers.

LISA:

We could take it as meaning just the big sports centre in town, along with the pool.

GEORGE:

I suppose so, yeah.

GEORGE:

Or we could consider all the member gyms.

GEORGE:

But either way, we'll make a judgement so that we're clear on what's being included.

LISA:

Sure.

GEORGE:

With this project, there's going to be loads to do for sure.

GEORGE:

But ironically, I think it's better that there's just two of us.

GEORGE:

You know, if there were five of us, everything would take longer because everyone wants to put their ideas forward about every single thing.

LISA:

Yes, I see what you mean.

GEORGE:

Do you think we should look at the data about how the fitness levels have changed in recent years?

LISA:

Well, I think that'd be a valid way to address the research question.

LISA:

And the tutor hasn't explicitly said if we should or not.

LISA:

But the thing is, I can't see where we'd find out about how healthy people were in the past compared to now.

LISA:

If we asked for, say, people's hospital records, it'd be confidential and we wouldn't be given access.

LISA:

So I'd say no.

GEORGE:

Fair enough.

LISA:

But to find out about people's fitness, we'll need to do interviews, won't we?

LISA:

For example, with gym users.

GEORGE:

Sure.

GEORGE:

I mean, I can't imagine they'd have anything against being interviewed for our project.

GEORGE:

They could even do it while they're on the exercise bike, so it's not like it takes up extra time.

GEORGE:

But what bothers me is, don't you think people might overstate how much exercise they do?

GEORGE:

Or how often?

GEORGE:

Their responses might not be entirely reliable.

LISA:

Yeah, I suppose.

LISA:

But I don't think that needs to bother us now.

LISA:

The thing is, I know you've got the skills that are needed to get a decent score on this assignment.

LISA:

You see, you're already looking ahead and anticipating possible difficulties, which I think shows that you're a good planner.

GEORGE:

Thanks, Lisa.

GEORGE:

That's great to hear.

...:

Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.

...:

Now listen carefully and answer questions 26 to 30.

LISA:

So, shall we talk about what we need to do at various stages of this task?

GEORGE:

Sure, and what we need to concentrate on at each one.

LISA:

Good idea.

LISA:

So the questions we're going to ask people about exercising and their health, I think it'd be worth seeking some input from the tutor.

GEORGE:

Once we've drafted them?

LISA:

Exactly.

LISA:

To see if he thinks we should amend them in any way.

GEORGE:

Fair enough.

LISA:

And then with the interviews.

GEORGE:

Oh yeah?

LISA:

Like, you mentioned maybe interviewing gym users?

GEORGE:

Right.

LISA:

Well, we'd need to gain the consent, for example, of the manager of the gym before we start.

GEORGE:

Fair point.

GEORGE:

And get something in writing from them.

GEORGE:

And from the interviewees too, if we're going to quote what they say.

LISA:

Sure.

GEORGE:

We may want to use surveys too.

LISA:

Definitely.

LISA:

To get a larger amount of data from gym users, students, or whoever.

LISA:

Thing is, we need to ensure we get a decent response rate.

LISA:

Because they can easily just ignore an email from us that says, please complete this survey.

GEORGE:

Well, if we make it absolutely clear what our rationale is, why we're asking for this information from them, hopefully that would help.

GEORGE:

Persuade them that it's worth spending a few minutes on it.

LISA:

Definitely.

LISA:

Let's do that.

GEORGE:

When we put the presentation together, we've really got to double check there aren't any mistakes on the slides.

LISA:

Good point.

LISA:

The tutor's quite particular about that.

GEORGE:

Sure.

GEORGE:

We'll need to be thorough.

LISA:

And I guess the final thing we'll do is write up our research.

GEORGE:

When we do that, we can make sure we're using our time efficiently if we allocate, say, certain sections or chapters to each of us.

LISA:

Good idea.

LISA:

But we can talk about who does what later.

GEORGE:

Sure.

That is the end of Part 3.

❓ Tapescript section 4

The Bosco Verticale in Milan

Now look at part four.

You will hear a lecture for students of architecture about two apartment blocks in Italy known as Bosco Verticale.

First you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.

Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.

Welcome to the third in our series of lectures on innovative urban architecture.

Today I'll be telling you about an award-winning pair of tall buildings called Bosco Verticale or vertical forest which are in the Italian city of Milan.

The vertical forests project comprises two residential tower blocks situated in a central district of Milan, about half an hour's walk from the cathedral, another iconic piece of Milanese architecture.

One of the towers is 110 meters in height and has 26 floors while the other is 76 meters high and comprises 18 floors.

The balconies of these two high-rise blocks have been planted with 900 trees ranging in height from 3.6 to 9 meters tall each.

In addition, 20,000 shrubs have been planted.

In total, if the trees and other plants on these two tower blocks were planted on flat ground, they would represent a forest that was 7,000 square meters in area.

Apart from making the buildings look more attractive, both to observers from the street and for residents looking out from inside, the trees offer several environmental benefits.

On an urban scale, they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, release oxygen and cool the air.

For residents of the buildings, they also filter small dust particles out of the air.

All of these are helpful processes in Milan, which features among the top 20 European cities afflicted with air pollution.

In addition, they regulate humidity naturally and offer shade in summer, thus reducing or eliminating the need for air conditioning.

A further benefit is that they reduce noise pollution.

Boeri Studio, the architects who designed the vertical forest, spent two years in consultation with a team of botanists who helped them choose suitable trees for the towers.

They selected trees and other plants suited to the local climate in Milan, but chose a range of species depending on their position on the building, so that plants that require less sunlight are on the north facades, for example.

Additional considerations were providing biodiversity.

By varying the species of plant life forming the external so-called living walls of these buildings, they hope birds and insects will be attracted back into the city.

The plants used on the building were selected and pre-cultivated specifically for this project and were lifted onto the balconies by cranes, then secured in their specially designed planters.

The irrigation of the plants is carried out automatically, using a system that recycles grey water, that is, wastewater from sinks and showers, produced in the building.

This offers an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution to the need to provide water for maintaining the plants.

All the vegetation in the vertical forest is the property of the management, not the individual owners of each apartment in the blocks.

The management team at the vertical forest are responsible for all maintenance of the trees and shrubs, and the owners are not allowed to interfere in any way.

Teams of gardeners carry out pruning and fertilizing tasks three or four times a year, via access through the apartments to the balconies.

Sections of vegetation that cannot be accessed from the balconies are maintained by gardeners who descend on ropes suspended from a telescopic arm on the roof of each block.

The vertical forest opened in October 2014 and has met with acclaim, winning the International High-Rise Award in 2014 and the Best Tall Building Worldwide Award in 2015.

However, as with most highly innovative architectural projects, there has been criticism as well as praise.

That is the end of Part 4.
