My friend Suzy met her husband in a strange way. She was tra-
veling to Eastern Europe by train one summer. For some time she
looked at the handsome young man sitting opposite her.
Finally he smiled at her and said "Hello". It was a long trip and
they talked about a lot of different things. He came from Hamburg,
and he was very interested in politics and English. When he got off
the train in Hamburg, Suzy felt a little sad because she didn't even
know his name. Then she noticed a book on the floor. It had an
address, but no name in it. She didn't know if it belonged to the
handsome German man, but she decided to write to the address in
the book. After a couple of weeks she got a reply. The following
summer he visited her in England, and last year they got married.

That's all right.
2. Listen to the Weather Forecast and repeat the phrases paying attention to the
word linking. Transcribe the text and read it aloud. (T.5.3.A, B, C "Headway
Pronunciation Intermidiate", p.25) (1,5 points)
And now here is the weather forecast for the next twenty-four
hours for the whole of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern
Ireland. At starting with Southern England and the Midlands, well it'll
be mainly dry and sunny, but quite cold, with temperatures around
six or seven degrees Celsius. It should stay dry all day, but there'll
be quite a wind, so wrap up warm.
And in the west country, Wales and Northern Ireland. You can
expect some rain in the morning and afternoon and quite strong
north easterly winds, and the temperature will be lower than
yesterday, around the three or four degrees mark. I don't think
you'll see much of the sun: cloudy all day, I'm afraid. The East coast
of England will see the best of today's weather. It'll be warmer than
yesterday, no winds, and sunshine, so quite warm for the time of
year.
In Scotland and Northern Ireland, however, there'll be heavy rain
and maybe some snow during the afternoon, and on the hills
temperatures will drop to below freezing, minus four or five, and on
the highest spots minus ten. Over much of Scotland it will be
cloudy, and windy too as the cold front moves in over the Atlantic.
Northern Ireland can expect the same, but the rain will end
before dark. But again very cold, with temperatures not going above
freezing. And that's all from me.
4. Read the short texts attaching the unstressed syllables to the preceding
stressed word rather than to the following one (2 points).

the ˋtelevision for a 'while.
