1
Part 1.
2
You will hear a woman asking a friend for restaurant recommendations.
3
First, you have some time to look at questions 1 to 4.
4
Now listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 4.
5
I've been meaning to ask you for some advice about restaurants.
6
I need to book somewhere to celebrate my sister's 30th birthday, and I liked the sound of that place you went to for your mum's 50th.
7
The junction?
8
Yeah, I'd definitely recommend that for a special occasion.
9
We had a great time there.
10
Everyone really enjoyed it.
11
Where is it again?
12
I can't remember.
13
It's on Grayson Street, only about a two -minute walk from the station.
14
Oh, that's good.
15
I'd prefer not to have to drive anywhere.
16
But I don't want to have to walk too far either.
17
Yes, the location's perfect, but that's not necessarily why I'd recommend it.
18
The food's amazing.
19
If you like fish, it's probably the best restaurant in town for that.
20
It's always really fresh, and there are lots of interesting dishes to choose from.
21
But all the food is good there.
22
Is it really expensive?
23
It's certainly not cheap, but for a special occasion I think it's fine.
24
It's got a great atmosphere, and before dinner you can go up on the roof and have a drink.
25
It's really nice up there, but you need to book.
26
It's very popular, as the views are spectacular.
27
Hmm, sounds good.
28
So that's definitely a possibility then.
29
Is there anywhere else you can think of?
30
Um, if you want somewhere a bit less formal, then you could try Paloma.
31
Where's that?
32
I haven't heard of it.
33
No, it's quite new.
34
It's only been open a few months, but it's got a great reputation already.
35
It's in a really beautiful old building on Bow Street.
36
Oh, I think I know where you mean.
37
Right beside the cinema.
38
Yes, that's it.
39
I've only been there a couple of times, but I was really impressed.
40
The chef used to work at Don Felipe's, apparently.
41
I was really sorry when that closed down.
42
So is all the food they serve Spanish, then?
43
Yeah.
44
You can get lots of small dishes to share, which always works really well if you're in a group.
45
Hmm.
46
Worth thinking about.
47
Yeah.
48
There's a lively atmosphere and the waiters are really friendly.
49
The only thing is that you need to pay a £50 deposit to book a table.
50
A lot of restaurants are doing that these days.
51
I should have a look at the menu to check there's a good choice of vegetarian dishes.
52
A couple of my friends have stopped eating meat.
53
Not sure.
54
I'd say the selection of those would be quite limited.
55
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions five to ten.
56
Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.
57
I've just thought of another idea.
58
Have you been to the Audley?
59
No, don't think I've heard of it.
60
How's it spelt?
61
A -U -D -L -E -Y.
62
You must have heard of it.
63
There's been a lot about it in the press.
64
I don't tend to pay much attention to that kind of thing.
65
So where is it exactly?
66
It's in that hotel near Baxter Bridge, on the top floor.
67
Oh, the views would be incredible from up there.
68
Yeah, I'd love to go.
69
I can't think of the chef's name, but she was a judge on that TV cookery show recently.
70
And she's written a couple of cookery books.
71
Oh, Angela Frayne.
72
That's the one.
73
Anyway, it's had excellent reviews from all the newspapers.
74
That would be a memorable place for a celebration.
75
Definitely.
76
Obviously, it's worth going there just for the view, but the food is supposed to be really special.
77
She only likes cooking with local products, doesn't she?
78
Yes.
79
Everything at the restaurant has to be sourced within a short distance, and absolutely nothing flown in from abroad.
80
I imagine it's really expensive, though.
81
Well, you could go for the set lunch.
82
That's quite reasonable for a top -class restaurant.
83
Thirty pounds a head.
84
In the evening, I think it'd be more like fifty pounds.
85
At least that, I should think.
86
But I'm sure everyone would enjoy it.
87
It's not the kind of place you leave feeling hungry, though, is it?
88
With tiny portions.
89
No, the reviews I've read didn't mention that.
90
I imagine they'd be average.
91
Well, that's all great.
92
Thanks so much.
93
That is the end of part one.
94
You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
95
Part 2 You will hear a potter, Heather McCallum, speaking to a group of people who are visiting a pottery,
96
a place where people make pots and other objects from clay.
97
First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 16.
98
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 16.
99
Hello and welcome.
100
My name's Heather McCallum and I'm one of the potters who work here at Edelman Pottery.
101
Before we go into the workshop, I just want to say a bit about the craft of pottery.
102
Then we'll have a look at the equipment and you can try making a pot of your own.
103
Like many people, I'm sure you know that pottery as an art form is tens of thousands of years old.
104
And we know this because it stands the test of time.
105
Things like baskets and pictures don't survive in the earth in the same way that pots do.
106
And even if ancient pots are found in small pieces, they still provide a lot of information about the past.
107
There's no doubt that pottery has given archaeologists a fascinating insight into how ancient humans lived.
108
The shape of an artefact may have been lost, but archaeologists can tell whether the pots were for,
109
say, storage or cooking by examining the impressions on the clay,
110
the scratches from tools, and the clay itself can reveal where the pots came from.
111
When I ask people why they want to take a pottery class with me, they sometimes talk about these things.
112
Like our ancestors, they hope that something they create will also last longer than they do.
113
That their work, whether it is good or not, might say something about humanity many years after their death.
114
Of course, you will all have your own reasons for coming here.
115
As far as I'm concerned, what I love most is the concentration you need to make a good pot.
116
That focus takes you away from the stresses of everyday life.
117
If you're elderly, it's also good exercise for hands and wrists and helps with arthritis.
118
And of course, it's a fun activity for children because it's so messy.
119
Here at Edelman Pottery, we show you some of the basic pottery techniques
120
so that you can use these to create whatever you wish.
121
A gift for a friend, perhaps.
122
Like nearly everyone who comes here, I'm sure this is the first time you will have tried the art.
123
So we'll keep things simple today.
124
Now, before we move on, can I just say a word about what you're wearing?
125
As we said in our email, please remove any watches, necklaces, etc. and put them somewhere safe.
126
If you have long hair, do tie it back now.
127
We'll provide aprons later, but I trust your clothes are old but comfortable, not your favourite T -shirt or jeans.
128
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 17 to 20.
129
Now listen and answer questions 17 to 20.
130
So now we're in the workshop.
131
Have a look around.
132
There's a lot going on.
133
To make pottery that will last, you need a potter's wheel,
134
a kiln, which is basically a very hot oven where you fire the pottery, and some tools. So, first, the kiln.
135
If you look over in the far corner, you'll see one of ours.
136
Since their invention, kilns have changed very little, though in the past 20 years, a lot of progress has been made in temperature control.
137
Basically, a kiln removes the water from clay at temperatures of around 1000 degrees Celsius.
138
This allows anything you've made to set permanently in shape.
139
It's a pretty ugly heavy object that's hard to keep in a house or flat, so most people don't have one.
140
You may think, can't I use my oven?
141
Well, Well, that's possible, but domestic ovens don't really get hot enough and eventually the clay will crack and fall apart.
142
Some people fire pottery in a fire pit outside, but bear in mind that can be dangerous.
143
You also need to know about safety procedures for kilns as they release toxic compounds into the air.
144
Every potter needs a potter's wheel.
145
This machine is used to shape the clay into an object with circular walls or sides, such as a bowl.
146
Its invention revolutionised the pottery industry, allowing multiple items to be produced in a day.
147
Lastly, there are a number of different tools that potters use, depending on what they want to make.
148
When you start, your hands can make all kinds of shapes and curves without relying on a sculpting tool.
149
However, there are some basic tools that you will need to handle the clay on the wheel.
150
Some look very strange and have even odder names that you may find hard to remember.
151
Rather than go through them all now, I'll just name a few tools as we go along.
152
We can provide these and I wouldn't recommend spending money on them yet.
153
So, let's try making a pot of your own.
154
If you sit down...
155
That is the end of part two.
156
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part two.
157
Part three.
158
You will hear two sociology students, called Tamara and Dev, discussing their research for a presentation on loneliness.
159
First, you have some time to look at questions 21.
160
Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 26.
161
Shall we go through the notes we've made from our research into loneliness now, Dev?
162
OK, Tamara.
163
It's been a real eye -opener.
164
I had no idea that loneliness has been increasing steadily for the last 20 years.
165
I know.
166
And it's the same all over the world.
167
The downside of a modern lifestyle, I guess.
168
Did you come to any conclusions about what the reasons for the increase are?
169
Well, I'd assumed it was mainly an issue for the elderly, but in fact it's something which affects young people just as much.
170
So nothing really to do with longer lifespans.
171
What about social media?
172
In my case, far from making me feel isolated, it actually does the opposite it it definitely does more good
173
than harm i'd say loneliness has a lot to do with
174
the way cities are designed people living in high -rise flats
175
with not much opportunity to speak to their neighbors i think you're right another possible reason is
176
that people are having fewer children and don't live in large extended family groups
177
but in this country anyway that all changed decades ago and yet loneliness is a more recent problem.
178
I suppose so.
179
A more plausible explanation is that people are having to move around for work
180
and often end up living miles away from their family and friends.
181
That's true.
182
Looking at the studies on health risks and loneliness, there are claims that loneliness has as much impact as smoking 15 cigarettes a day
183
or similar to the risks caused by obesity
184
but i'm not sure there's enough evidence for some of these claims well what about
185
that one in finland which showed
186
that loneliness increased the risk of cancer by about ten percent
187
and those findings have been supported by other studies too you're right about
188
that one i was actually thinking of the studies on dementia Some found no association between loneliness and dementia
189
and others found the opposite Not exactly reliable then There's been a lot of research on cardiovascular disease
190
and whether loneliness contributes to that Yes,
191
I read that it was hard to reach a judgement as the definition of loneliness varied quite a lot
192
and the responses from participants were too subjective But there's no doubt that loneliness contributes to a weakened immune system.
193
Unquestionably.
194
The data on that is sound.
195
What did you think about the evolutionary theory of loneliness?
196
Well, I thought the idea that loneliness evolved because it motivated people to be with other people quite convincing.
197
Survival often depended on group cooperation but I don't think there's enough evidence to claim
198
that there must be a group of neurons in our brains
199
which influence social behavior by making us feel bad
200
when we're alone there are a few studies which support the theory
201
but not conclusively enough more evidence is needed
202
and anyway this theory is not really useful when it comes to solving the problem of loneliness today True.
203
Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions 27 to 30.
204
Now listen and answer questions 27 to 30.
205
Should we look at the relationship between loneliness and mental health now?
206
OK.
207
So, loneliness and depression are clearly related, and that's been recognised by various governments around the world.
208
But unlike depression, loneliness has no recognised clinical form.
209
There's no available diagnosis or effective treatment, and that's not likely to change.
210
I don't think so either.
211
I was thinking we should start our presentation with an example from our own experience.
212
I'd like to talk about how lonely I was
213
when I started university Being away from home for the first time
214
and all that Good idea Everyone will be able to relate to
215
that Although a lot of students were probably too embarrassed to
216
admit to it Yeah We could discuss ways of dealing with
217
loneliness as well Like just talking to strangers Loads of studies have shown
218
that interactions with shop assistants and bar staff make people feel more optimistic and relaxed I don't know about that,
219
but it must make people feel more connected with their community True,
220
although you need to be a certain kind of person to be able to just strike up a conversation Good point.
221
We should say something about solitude and how being alone and being lonely aren't the same thing.
222
It's strange the way some people can't stand being by themselves while others love it.
223
Yeah, the research shows a certain amount of solitude is beneficial for well -being,
224
which I appreciate but being alone isn't something I actually like.
225
I'd never choose to go on holiday alone, for example.
226
Me neither.
227
Well, let's not...
228
That is the end of part three.
229
You now have 30 seconds to check your answers to part three.
230
Part 4
231
You will hear part of a presentation by an urban planning student about the role of rivers in cities around the world.
232
First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.
233
Let's go.
234
Thank you.
235
and answer questions 31 to 40.
236
It's quite hard to think of a city that doesn't have a big river running through it.
237
If you think about the major cities in the world, Shanghai, New York, Mumbai, London, they're nearly all built on rivers.
238
When these cities were established hundreds or even thousands of years ago, the rivers were a big part of people's lives.
239
In sixteenth -century London, the quickest way to get from one part of the city to another was by river.
240
But people also used the river for fishing, as the water then was relatively clean, and they would also go on boat trips up and down the river just for pleasure,
241
as a relaxing escape from the noise and bustle of the city streets.
242
But as industries developed and populations increased, city rivers suffered.
243
The rising number of people meant there was a huge increase in the amount of sewage discharged into the rivers.
244
Rivers had always been used for this purpose, but when the number of inhabitants was so small, that wasn't such a problem.
245
However, as cities grew to over a million inhabitants, the impact on the rivers became more serious.
246
In addition, other types of pollution increased as factories were built beside the river and discharged their waste materials into the water.
247
This got worse over time.
248
As recently as 1957, scientists at London's Natural History Museum declared that the River Thames was dead in biological terms,
249
as the water was too filthy to support any kind of life.
250
But in recent years, as rivers lost their industrial function, cities have begun to recognize their true value and to take steps to clean them up.
251
For example, the River Thames is now cleaner than it's been for 150 years.
252
These days, you can see seals swimming in the water, and recently people had to try to rescue a whale,
253
which had got lost and swum up the river from the sea by mistake.
254
Unfortunately, they didn't succeed, but the problem was disorientation rather than the quality of the water.
255
Then, all around the world, riverside areas are now seen as prime sites for development.
256
Warehouses that were once used for storing goods are now being converted into expensive restaurants and also into apartments with river views,
257
which are in great demand and sell for astronomical prices.
258
In Los Angeles, on the west coast of the USA, an architect has plans to revitalise the banks of the river
259
and to make a park there which can provide facilities for sports as well as a natural environment for relaxing in.
260
It's also hoped that the riverside can be used for other purposes.
261
It's been proposed that facilities could be provided for displaying projects related to various kinds of art
262
that have been produced by local people, for example.
263
In the city of Paris, during the summer months of July and August, all the traffic is banned from the roads by the sides of the river
264
and the banks are transformed into beaches where people can relax in deck chairs under potted palm trees,
265
sunbathe or buy a drink or a snack while enjoying the view.
266
But to make the most of our rivers in our increasingly crowded cities, we need to allow them to regain their original purpose and be used as a means of transport,
267
reclaiming our streets from cars and lorries.
268
To do this, we'll have to shift more traffic back to the river, but this time cleanly and silently,
269
making the most of modern technology.
270
Already, more than two billion passengers use the ferry to travel in cities around the world, like Istanbul, San Francisco, and New York,
271
and these numbers are set to rise further.
272
Admittedly, it's not a fast way of traveling, but neither is a car when it's stuck in traffic.
273
Of course, passenger traffic on roads might decrease as more people start working from home,
274
But another recent development, the huge rise in online shopping,
275
has meant that another form of urban traffic just keeps on growing, and that's deliveries.
276
Trucks and vans in the city pollute and double park while dropping off parcels.
277
Imagine using the immense capacity of shipping to take these trucks off the road.
278
One freight barge can replace 44 large trucks, uses far less energy, and causes less pollution.
279
When the barge docks at the riverside, the parcels could be taken the last few kilometres to their final destination on cargo bikes,
280
electric ones of course.
281
This is already happening in the Dutch city of Amsterdam, and in future, the final stage could even be carried out by drone,
282
although at present this isn't allowed.
283
Wouldn't it be great to unblock our city centres in this way?
284
Looking further ahead...
285
That is the end of Part 4.
286
You now have one minute to check your answers to Part 4.
287
Thank you.
