_______ | Soho is a colourful neighbourhood in central London. It has something for everyone,
from trendy restaurants and cafes to unusual shops and theatres. Soho promises visitors a
variety of things to see and do. It’s a truly unique experience.
| 2 | | A walk around Soho offers the chance to see some well-known streets and buildings.
Stroll down Carnaby Street or check out the grand Palace Theatre from the 1880s. Sit for a
moment in Soho Square to enjoy a little green space and look out for famous faces.
|В| | For those looking for unusual things to buy, Soho’s shops sell almost everything. Old
records, antique books and vintage clothing are just a few of the rare treasures to buy in the
streets and markets of Soho.
] Londoners and tourists from around the world come to Soho for its variety of theatres.
There are many plays and musicals to see in different venues in this arty neighbourhood. For
more information on performances, see the Time Out London Magazine.
|5 | | Soho is truly an international spot. Italians, Greeks, Asians and many others come
together in the streets of Soho. Of course with all these nationalities living in one
neighbourhood, there is a wide variety of food choices. Great ethnic cuisine from just about
everywhere is available in Soho. So get ready for a delicious treat.
|6 | [ The streets are always busy in Soho. People there like to go out and have a great time.
There is no better way to have fun and really live the Soho experience, than to attend one of the
many festivals that take place throughout the year. Festivals celebrating music, the arts, films
and food guarantee a fun time in this lively neighbourhood.
[7 | | The neighbourhood of Soho covers 2.6 square kilometres and is in the shape of a
square. There are four underground Tube stations that give access to Soho; one in each corner
of the square. Also various London bus routes run through Soho. However, it’s not a good idea
to drive to Soho, as traffic can be a problem and there is little parking available.

Good Enough to Eat!
Who doesn’t love a delicious buffet with lots of food
and desserts to choose from? But imagine a buffet
with a cheese sculpture of a woman, a giant
chocolate picture, bread in the shapes of people or
thousands of biscuits that look like a scene in a city
street. People can see a buffet just like this at the
Experimental Food Society Spectacular. This yearly
event brings together the best in food artists from
bread, butter, cheese and chocolate sculptors to
food landscape artists and performers. This isn’t a
typical food exhibition with top chefs and restaurants
cooking up their best dishes. This is a day long event
that showcases today’s most talented food artists.
It’s the creation of the Food Experimental Society.
According to the society’s founder, Alexa Perrin, the
Food Experimental Society’s goal is to promote food
as a serious art form. Their idea is not to make
strange things out of food but to see food in a
creative way.
At the event, visitors get the chance to view the
amazing artworks and to taste them. They can also

watch some of the artists as they create their own
works of art and get tips from them on how to get
experimental in the kitchen. And that’s not all. There
are also music and dance performances for visitors
to enjoy.
A highlight of the exhibition is the landscape art such
as the “foodscapes” of food artist and photographer
Carl Warner who creates magical lands from food
such as broccoli, bread, meat and bananas. And
chocolate lovers should not miss the amazing
creations of chocolate painter Sid Chidiac who
makes amazing chocolate portraits. Cake sculptor,
Louise Hill, also presents desserts in a new way. Her
creations are very realistic and detailed. There is
even an extraordinary section for children with
artworks that capture their imaginations.
Unlike most art events, the artists here don’t sell
their work or even win a prize for the best artwork.
This event concludes with the guests really
experiencing the artwork through a five-course meal
featuring many of the food art creations. It’s a unique
dining experience that no other restaurant or food
festival can offer.

A take cooking classes.

1 On top of Wawel hill in Krakow, Poland is a grand castle. It was the home of Polish kings
throughout the Middle Ages. The castle is a well-known tourist attraction in Poland. However, what
continues to attract tourists even more over the years is a cave at the bottom of the hill. According to
legend, it was the home of the Wawel Dragon, Poland’s most famous beast!
|2 | | There are various versions of this famous legend. One of the older stories tells of a small
village on the River Vistula near Wawel hill. Many of the villagers believed that a powerful dragon was
asleep in the cave at the bottom of the hill. Old people in the village warned the others not to wake
the dragon or they would all be in danger.
Some of the young people in the village did not believe in the dragon. They decided to
explore the cave and prove there was no dragon there. They took some torches and went into the
cave. Once inside the cave, they heard heavy breathing and saw a huge scary beast. They started to
run away, but it was too late. The dragon was awake!
|4 | | As the young people were running away, they turned back to look at the cave. In the entrance,
they saw a fierce fire-breathing dragon with six arms and a long tail. From that day on, the people lived
in fear. Everyday the dragon carried off and ate their farm animals. Sometimes the dragon would even
take people instead of animals.
|5 | | Many brave men of the village tried to kill the dragon, but didn’t succeed. One day, a shoe
maker’s wise apprentice named Krakus (Krak) thought of a better way to kill the dragon. He stuffed
some dead sheep with sulphur. Then he placed the sheep outside the dragon’s cave and waited for
the dragon to come out. Eventually the dragon came out of his cave. It saw the sheep and greedily ate
them. The sulphur began to burn inside its stomach and it ran to the river to drink some water. The
dragon became very sick.
|6 | [ Krak followed the dragon and began to throw stones at it. The dragon tried to blow fire at Krak
but couldn't because of all the water in its stomach. It continued to drink and drink until finally it
exploded. A simple shoemaker was victorious in killing the dragon and saving the village.
|7 | | The people were overjoyed and made Krak the ruler of the village. Together they built a
castle on Wawel hill. Krak became a great king. More and more people came to Wawel hill and it
| eventually became the great city of Krakow in honour of Krakus.

Ready, set, action! Get ready for an experience of a lifetime with the Holiday Movie Company. We are
not a film school, nor do we offer qualifications in film production. What we do offer, however, is a
unique filmmaking holiday in a beautiful location with experienced filmmakers.
Our holidays are aimed at beginners who want to learn about filmmaking. Our guests come together
to make a short film over a period of two weeks. Guests choose what position in the film production
team they are interested in. Positions in areas such as lighting, sound and costume design are
available. All guests w ill have the opportunity to direct a part of the film and work with professional
actors. The film crew will have a screenplay to follow, however, all decisions in the filming are under
the control of the director and crew. Our role as a company is simply to help and advise each guest.
Guests must make their own travel arrangements to the holiday movie company. Once there, we
provide hotel accommodation, all necessary equipment and transport to and from the different
shooting locations. Before production starts, we will demonstrate how to use the equipment and train
guests for their positions in the film project. At the end of the training, the guests w ill get together
with the actors and produce a small part of the film as a test piece. Once filming begins, there w ill
be a daily filming schedule. Some days might be longer than others due to weather and filming
problems. Of course, there will be time off for sightseeing and relaxation. We want our guests to have
lots of fun in a new place, meet like-minded people, learn new skills and have an unforgettable
experience making a film . Our guests not only leave with pictures of what they did on holiday, but
with a professional film to show their friends back home.

Making a Difference:
a little water at a time.
Did you know that one person dies every 15 seconds of a water-related disease or that about one
billion people in the world live without access to clean, safe drinking water? Scott Harrison didn’t.
About 8 years ago, Scott was living in a fancy flat in New York City and driving an expensive car. He
had a great job promoting nightclubs and events. Life was easy and fun for Scott, yet he felt very
empty inside because his life had no real purpose. So he decided to do something about it.
Scott volunteered on a floating hospital with an organisation called Mercy Ships, which offers free
medical care to the world’s poorest countries. Doctors and other technical staff from around the
world leave their jobs and work for free helping thousands of people who need medical care. Scott
went to Liberia, Africa. He took the position of photojournalist. What Scott saw there changed his
life. He was shocked to see thousands and thousands of people waiting in a queue every day for
medical attention. Some of them had very serious medical problems. What Scott realised in his two
years of service with Mercy Ships was that about 80% of all the diseases they encountered were
due to unsafe water and poor sanitation.
Scott returned to New York City with a mission: he would form a charity to provide clean water in
poor countries. Scott founded “charity: water” on the night of his 31st birthday. He threw a huge
party. Instead of gifts, he asked his guests to donate money to his new charity. He raised 15,000
dollars that night, which went to fixing and building wells in Uganda. Scott used his natural talent for
promoting things to turn “charity: water” into a very successful humanitarian organisation. Since its
beginning “charity: water” has provided 1.5 million people with clean water, with 3 ,2 0 0 projects in
17 countries. Scott’s plans don’t stop here. The organisation’s goal is to bring clean water to 100
million people by 2020. Why do all this? “Guilt has never been part of it," according to Scott. “ It’s
the excitement, instead, presenting people with an opportunity - you have an amazing chance to build
a well!”

1 Scott left New York City because he wanted to change job.

2 Mercy Ships is a charity hospital in Liberia, Africa.
3 Doctors and staff don't get paid on Mercy Ships.
4 Scott volunteered as a doctor on a floating hospital.
5 Unsafe water caused many of the illnesses of Mercy Ships' patients.
6 The first project of "charity: water's" was in Uganda.
7 17 million people now receive clean water from Scott's charity.

Interviewer: Hey Trevor, why are you holding that video
camera?
Trevor: Oh, hi Carla, I want to film the bridge across the
street.
Carla: Oh really, why?
Trevor: Г т making a real-life video with everyday people
on the street. Г т filming different city streets to show
how accidents happen. I want my film to show that
careless driving is a form of crime and that we must try
to make our streets safer.
Carla: That's an interesting idea. There is lots of traffic on
this street. You should get some great footage. There are
many careless drivers that don't pay attention to the
road signs. And, well the police...they are never around.
I hardly ever see any patrol cars. The city should increase
the amount of police in the streets.
Trevor: Yes, it certainly is a problem. I hope my film can
help. I plan to show it to the city council.
Carla: That's a great idea, (pause) Oh look Trevor, there
is a motorcycle driving towards the tunnel under the
bridge into oncoming traffic!
Trevor: I don't believe it. That's exactly what I am looking for!
Carla: (Sigh) Ahhh fortunately there are very few cars in
the tunnel and the motorcycle is driving around them.
Trevor: That driver is really lucky.
Carla: Are you getting everything on film?
Trevor: Yes, it's the perfect example of how dangerous
bad drivers really can be.
Carla: You know Trevor, when you finish your film, you
should bring it to school and show it to the class too.
Trevor: That's a good idea!

Interviewer: Hello and welcome to this week's community

Minton festival is taking place this week and Kevin is here
to tell us all about it. Hello Kevin and welcome to the show.
Kevin: Hi everyone! It's great to be here.
Interviewer: So, Kevin, what can we expect?
Kevin: Well, the festival kicks off on Sunday 10th
September and lasts for one week. This year it's bigger
and better than ever with a full programme of events.
Interviewer: Can you tell us a bit about the events?
Kevin: Of course. Well, the festival begins on Sunday
morning with the annual Pancake Breakfast. Later in the
afternoon, people can take part in the village fun run.
Interviewer: What's that?
Kevin: Well, it's like a mini-marathon and people of all
ages are welcome to participate.
Interviewer: What other events are there?
Kevin: There are different events taking place from
Monday to Wednesday. Visitors can see local bands
performing live, circus acts, puppet shows, dog shows
and even skateboard displays. On Thursday, there is a
history fair where people can buy local arts and crafts.
And on Friday, it's time for people to show off their
cooking talents and try to win a prize for the best dish.
Interviewer: Wow. There are definitely many events. Tell
us about the parade.
38
Kevin: Well, the festival ends on Saturday with the
annual parade. It starts off at the town centre and goes
down Maple Street. People wear colourful costumes and
parade through the town. It's a must-see event!
Interviewer: Sounds like fun.
Kevin: It is. And it's not too late for people to help out
with the festival. We are still looking for volunteers.
Interviewer: OK. That's a good idea. Let's hope our listeners
take notice. Well, Kevin, thanks for joining us today and
good luck with the festival.

TEST 3
Interviewer: Welcome to the show 'Great Musical
Talents'. With me today is Professor Saunders from the
Royal Academy of Music to talk with us about Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart, one of the greatest composers of all
time. Welcome to the show Professor Saunders.
Prof. Saunders: Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here.
Interviewer: We all know that Mozart was a musical
genius and composed some of the greatest works in
classical music. He began his career at a very young age.
Tell us about his childhood?
Prof. Saunders: Certainly. Mozart was born in Salzburg,
Austria in 1756. From early on, young Mozart showed a
great talent for music. At three years old, he could play the
piano. At the age of five, he was composing music. He
published his first piece of music at the age of seven and
wrote his first opera when he was twelve. He was truly a
gifted child.
Interviewer: He obviously came from a musical family.
Prof. Saunders: Yes, he did. His father, Leopold Mozart, was a
minor music composer. He also played the violin exceptionally
well. Mozart's sister was an accomplished keyboard musician.
Neither Mozart nor his sister went to school, as they left home
to perform in concerts around Europe. While on tour young
Mozart learned to play the violin.
Interviewer: When did Mozart establish himself as a composer?
Prof. Saunders: Well, he was always composing music.
Even while on tour in different countries Mozart never
stopped composing. He composed some of his best
operas when touring Italy in 1770-1773. He would often
compose music in his head and then write the notes
down perfectly later without any mistakes. He was also
very talented because he could hear a piece of music only
once and then play it. From the age of seventeen until his
death at thirty-six, Mozart composed most of his greatest
works.
Interviewer: How did he die?
Prof. Saunders: In the last few years of his life, Mozart
was not well and remained in his home in Vienna
composing most of the time. He completed many works
at this time. He eventually died of an illness. Although
there are many great composers and many other better
opera writers, Mozart stands out for composing over
600 beautiful musical compositions in such a short time.
Interviewer: Truly an amazing man. Thank you for joining
us today, Professor Saunders.
Prof. Saunders: You're welcome.

children. All the money we raise goes to a children's
hospital in our city.

My parents only buy environmentally friendly products
and recycle our rubbish. I, however, like to do something
positive for my community. Together with other
energetic, young people we collect food, clothes and toys
for the needy families in our city. We deliver these items
ourselves and it's an amazing feeling to see the difference
we are making by helping other people. It's so satisfying.

My school is supporting an SOS children's village. It's an
international charity that has been around for a long
time. I think it is a great way for our school to help other
children in need. We have to raise £240 a year and the
organisation sends it directly to the children's village in
another country. This money helps pay for food, clothes,
books and toys for the children. They also send us
photos of the children and updates about how our class
has helped. I like the idea of improving lives everywhere.
TEST 6
Interviewer: Welcome to "Art Today", the show that explores
new and upcoming artists. One of my favourite art exhibits
currently on display at the Coldwater Gallery is "My World"
by landscape artist Melanie Glassar. Mrs Glassar joins us
today to discuss her art. Thank you for being here with us.
Melanie: It's a pleasure.
Interviewer: Let's start at the beginning. How did you
become an artist?
Melanie: Well, I always thought I would be a lawyer. Even
my parents thought so too, probably because l like to
argue. Then, when I was at secondary school, I started to
do a lot of animated drawings and cartoons in art class. My
art teacher really encouraged me and from there I began
to paint. Eventually it led to my real passion, landscapes.
Interviewer: Your work has been compared to many
great impressionist artists such as Renoir. Is your work
based on impressionism?
Melanie: Not really. It's true I use many impressionistic
techniques, but I'm inspired by the work of nature
photographers. I want to capture the same images in
paint and add my emotions to them.
Interviewer: How do you work?
Melanie: Unlike most landscape painters, I don't create my
work while looking at the landscape. I work in my studio for
about 4-6 hours a day only. That's all I can do each day. At
night, I look for inspiration in photography books. At the
weekends, I like to explore new places to get new ideas.
Interviewer: Where can we see and buy your work?
Melanie: Besides my exhibition at the Coldwater Gallery,
some of the other galleries around town also show my
work. I don't work with any art dealers, so all of my work
can be bought at my website: Melanie Glassar.com.
interviewer: One last question, Mrs Glassar. What are
your artistic goals?
Melanie: I'm not like most artists who aspire to exhibit
their work in top galleries or to make lots of money. I
don't really care about that. What I'd really like to do is
have the opportunity to travel around the world and
paint the places that really make an impression on me.
That would be a dream come true for me!
