B: Hello - yes, um, is your club taking on new members at the moment? A: Oh yes - we're always interested in taking on new members Just give me a moment and I'll get an application form Right-here we are So - let's start with your name B: It's Harry A: OK - and your sumame? B: It's Symonds A: Is that like Simon with an 's'? B: No, um, it's S-Y-M-O-N-D-S Most people find it rather difficult to spell A: I see - it has a silent D I guess a lot of people miss that Now let me see - can you tell me when you were born? B: Yes certainly - the 11th of December A: Thanks - and the year? B: 1996 A: OK good Now - are you thinking of becoming a full-time member? B: Er, probably not What kind of memberships you have? A: Well, we also have off-peak membership which is between and 12 in the morning and and in the afternoon and then we have a weekend membership B: So a weekend membership is just Saturday and Sunday? A: Yes, that's right B: OK - well that's not going to work for me It looks like I'll have to be full-time I'm afraid off-peak membership won't as I'm not free at those times and I don't just want to be restricted to weekends A: I'll make a note of that Right - we have several facilities at the club including a gym, a swimming pool, tennis and squash courts What activities are you planning on doing? B: Well, you have badminton? A: Yes we B: And table tennis? A: I'm afraid not - well not at the moment anyway B: Oh - OK Well I'm also very keen on swimming so I'm glad you have a pool I'll certainly be doing a lot of that A: OK - I've got that Will you be using the gym? B: No - I'm not interested in that A: OK So just let me work out what the cost will be Yes - that comes to £450 for the year You can choose to pay annually for the full year or monthly It's up to you B: Oh, I'd prefer to pay regularly in small amounts, rather than have a large amount to pay in one go, if that's OK? A: Sure - that's fine Right, I've got the most important details for now Part You will hear an interview in which a deep-sea map-maker called Sally Gordon and a marine biologist called Mark Tomkins are talking about making maps of the ocean floor For questions 11-15, decide whether the statement is TRUE (T) or FALSE (F) (10 points) T F F T 10 T Transcripts with highlighted keys Interviewer: Tonight we're talking to map-maker Sally Gordon, and marine biologist Mark Tomkins, about making maps of the ocean floor Sally, how did you get started on your career? Tell us about your first expedition Sally: As a recent graduate, I was fortunate to receive a full-paid internship aboard an exploration vessel to participate in sonar mapping I was delighted to be selected, but I was extremely nervous about living at sea for three weeks Fortunately, everyone was really friendly and helpiul to me as the new kid on board On my very first mapping expedition, we collected some data which really changed the way that they thought about geology in that area, and from then on I was completely hooked, and inspired by the thought of repeating the success Now a lot of my shipmates call me the Mapping Queen! 11 T Interviewer: Mark, how far have we progressed in terms of researching the ocean floor? Mark: Here's a troubling fact: most of us know more about planets than we about the depths of the ocean And yet with volcanoes, deep valleys, mountain peaks and vast plains, the landscape of the ocean floor is as varied and magnificent as it is on the surface of some astronomical body Ninetyfive percent of the ocean floor remains unexpired - which is nothing compared to how small a part of space we have reached, of course But mapping the ocean floor is very technologically challenging and is progressing much more slowly than space exploration 12 F Interviewer: Sally, I know you were wanting to make a point about public attitudes towards deep-sea exploration Sally: Yes thanks I think it's challenging to get the public engaged about deep-sea exploration I think you can get people excited about some parts of marine science People love to see footage of coral reefs, for example These are bright, well-lit portions of the ocean, but really just its skin But the depths are so far removed from people physically, so it's a case of out of sight and out of mind, I suppose, which is a shame and so unnecessary 13 F Interviewer: Here's a question for both of you Where does the funding for these projects come from? Mark: The government tunding has tended to dry up in recent years, and a lot of corporations have really taken up some of the slack Our project is financed by Alison insurance It's a very interesting model for ocean science because it's like instead of sponsoring a football team, you're sponsoring a very important scientific mission that really can make a difference - and people notice that Sally: Tt's an interesting development I think corporates are starting to see the opportunity here for getting massive brand exposure in an area that there aren't too many competitors And i don't think a government funded project could've worked at the speed that we've been working at Interviewer: There are a lot of mineral resources under the sea Mark, aren't some nations particularly island nations - rushing in to exploit this? Mark: Some are Though, of course, without knowing the shape of the ocean floor, we'll never realise the economic viability of these resources Some island nations have been trying to extend their territorial sea claims further under one interpretation of maritime law I think who owns these resources is a huge issue, and particularly who might be responsible for any damage done to the ocean if these resources are mined - who would be liable 14 T Interviewer: With all the new technology, our knowledge of the oceans is increasing Where you both see this leading? Sally: More awareness leads to more engagement and - I hope – more responsibility People would be seeing landscapes everywhere, as gorgeous as the Himalayas or the Grand Canyon, and they'd be seeing them for the first time because these are places that no human had ever seen before We've already witnessed this with photos of galaxies coming back from the latest space probes Mark: I think the only reason we haven't seen these places is we haven't had the will to go find them, It'll make people think before they're careless about pollution, or eating seafood unsustainably, because they'd really know how beautiful the ocean is, and that it's not just a big dumping ground It's our planet, not some distant galaxy we're talking about here after all 15 T Part 3: You will hear part of an interview with the astronaut Charles Duke, who is talking about his trip to the moon For questions 6-10, choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which fits best according to what you hear (10 points) 11 D 12 B 13 A 14 C 15 D Transcripts with highlighted keys Interviewer: My guest today is Charles Duke, one of the few people to have walked on the moon as part of an Apollo mission Charles, welcome to the studio Have you always been hooked on space travel? Charles: Quite frankly, as a kid, it'd never entered my head There wasn't even a space program when I was young so there weren't any astronauts Interviewer: What about science fiction films at the cinema? Charles: I'd seen them, of course I used to wonder what space travel might be like — but it was never what you might describe as a fascination — if you follow me -> D Interviewer: So, how did it all come about? Charles: It was at the Naval Academy Interviewer: Not in the Air Force? Charles: No, but I was a navy pilot I had fallen in love with planes and nothing else would And that gave me the opportunity to start — to get selected for the astronaut program Interviewer: Presumably by then they were talking about putting rockets into space? Charles: Absolutely Interviewer: And how did you find the training? Charles: I suppose the lunar surface training in the spacesuit was physically demanding in a way Interviewer: Quite uncomfortable, I imagine Charles: It's not what you might expect Once the spacesuits get inflated, it gets very rigid You had to fight to bend your arms and move your fingers inside the gloves Interviewer: And how long did you spend inside it? Charles: Around four to five hours But actually, the most challenging part was worrying about how to handle the simulator because we needed to know how to land and then take off on the moon B Interviewer: I don't think I could have coped with that! Charles: I’m not sure I did But if you did something wrong, you were in trouble and we often spent eight hours a day trying to learn what to do! Interviewer: So how did you feel when you first heard that you were actually going to the moon? Charles: I suppose you're expecting me to say 'exhilarated' But I knew there were lots of ‘ifs' — it would happen if they didn't cancel the program, if I didn't get sick and so on So I stopped doing all the dangerous sports I was involved in Interviewer: So you knew you had one chance and if you blew it, you wouldn't get another? Charles: That just about sums it up! A Interviewer: And when you eventually got there, what impact did it have on you? Landing on the moon, I mean! Charles: When we saw the moon for the first time from about 1500 meters, we recognized the landmarks but, as we got closer, we saw that the spot we were going to land on was very rough — big rocks and craters —and we panicked a bit And the more we tried to maneuver and the closer we got, the more moon dust we blew out Interviewer: But you landed safely? Charles: Eventually, yes We were six hours late So when we touched down, we erupted in enthusiasm We shook hands and hugged each other Interviewer: Not an easy feat in spacesuits Charles: [laughs] No, indeed But after that we had to rest for a certain period we got outside for the very first time Interviewer: You must have been terrified Charles: We had no sense of fear about stepping off the ladder onto the moon We just jumped off and started bouncing around like lambs in a field in springtime Interviewer: And when you saw the lunar landscape, did it live up to expectations? Charles: What struck me most, apart from its awesome attraction, was its desolation The sky was jet black You felt as if you could reach out and touch it There were no stars and the sun was shining all the time 9 C Interviewer: And what went through your mind at that moment? Charles: The fact that it was so untouched The fact that nobody had ever been to that particular spot before It was simply breathtaking Interviewer: And you have a favorite memory of the mission? Charles: Definitely It was the thing that we did during the last moonwalk We were about kilometers or so from the base, and on the edge of a big crater, 100 meters deep We had to be careful as we walked along the ridge because one slip would have been dangerous Suddenly we saw this huge rock It was a long way off, and there are no people or cars to judge distances or give you any sense of scale Interviewer: But you managed to get down to it? Charles: Eventually It was enormous The biggest rock anybody had ever touched on the moon I had a hammer and I hit a chunk of it — and it came off in my hand — a piece the size of a small melon 10 D Interviewer: A different kind of souvenir! So you think we should go back? What's the reason for investing all this time and money in the space race anyway? Charles: Oh, it's the prime place for a scientific base… Part You will hear part of a scientific television programme for young people in which the speaker explains what meteors' are For questions 16-25, complete the notes below which summarise what the speaker says Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer (20 points) 16 shooting stars 21 downwards 17 car 22 a jet plane 18 insects 23 hotter and hotter 19 iron 24 melts 20 orbit 25 reach the ground Transcripts with highlighted keys Presenter: Even if you have never watched the sky at night, you probably know what you would see if you did The view is best on a night with no moon You stare upwards into the inky blackness over which are scattered millions of tiny points of light These, of course, are the stars Then just as you're beginning to get bored with this unchanging scene, a tiny white streak of light shoots across the sky It's going too fast to be a plane Then two seconds later you see another one What you are witnessing is the beginning of a shower of meteors or shooting stars To understand what is happening, it helps us to imagine a car driving fast along the road In a way, our planet Earth is like that car As it is racing along, it comes towards a large group of insects all flying together just above the road Now, not all the insects are hit by the car, but several of them crash into the car's windscreen with an unpleasant noise In many ways, the meteors are similar to the swarm of insects, although they aren't really animals In fact, meteors are mostly tiny pieces of iron that look like little stones In a similar way, the Earth is not really moving along a road But it does follow the same circular route around the sun once every year This enormous circular path is called the Earth's ‘orbit' All the other planets are in orbits like this as well Now, there are small groups of those stones waiting in certain places along the Earth's route around the sun Some of them are fixed in one orbit while others are moving around the sun in their own orbits Once every year, the Earth's circular path around the sun takes us through some of these groups of little rocks Now, when the earth approaches one of these stones, it is pulled downwards towards our planet by a strong force called gravity And when the meteor starts to rush towards the ground, a shooting star is born Normally, as shooting stars fall, they are travelling at speeds of 10 kilometres every second This is about a hundred times faster than a jet plane However, before the meteor can reach the Earth, it must go through the air around it - the atmosphere Now, because it is going through the air so fast, the shooting star starts to become hotter and hotter and the air around it gets very hot too This is a bit like the head of a match rubbing along the side of a matchbox Now, very soon the outside of this piece of iron gets very hot indeed and, as a result, it gets soft and melts and then starts to burn So, as this hot little rock rushes through the atmosphere, it leaves a tail of hot burning metal and flames behind it This is the bright streak we can see from the ground - 100 kilometres below Yes, you see, fortunately for us, most meteors are so small that they have completely burned up long before they could ever reach the ground - which is just as well because, otherwise, we would need to carry rather stronger umbrellas!
