visiting us.
Mr Nelson Thank you. It’s a pleasure to be here.
Interviewer We have a lot of questions we would like to ask you.
Let’s start with the first one. When did you become
a firefighter?
Mr Nelson When I was very young. I began when I was 19 and
now I’m 49 …
Interviewer Oh, that’s a long time. Why do you like being a
firefighter?
Mr Nelson Because I like helping people. I think it’s exciting.
Interviewer What was your most difficult case?
Mr Nelson Last year the local hospital caught fire and there were
a lot of children in it so we worked very hard for more
than ten hours.
Interviewer What do you do when you are not in a fire? Waiting
at the fire station must be very boring.
Mr Nelson No, it’s not boring at all. We usually play cards or wash
the trucks. We also visit schools and teach children
what to do in emergencies. We are not at the station
all the time …
Interviewer What is the most important characteristic of a good
firefighter?
Mr Nelson That’s a good question. A good firefighter is generous,
hard-working and friendly. We have no time to hang
around. We always look after people and also after
our equipment. Our job is not easy. It’s similar to
being a surgeon or a police officer. We are always
ready to give a hand.

Roger’s father is a vet and he has got seven dogs. They are
not ordinary dogs. They are rescue dogs. They help people in
emergencies, for example, when there is an earthquake or an
avalanche, or when a person gets lost in a mountain. In these cases,
there are two important problems: water and exhaustion. Let’s admit
that people sometimes don’t drink or eat for a very long time and
this is bad for the body. They also get tired of waiting and this makes
them nervous. What do these dogs do? They look for people and help
them. They carry food and water to them.
In these cases, we shouldn’t waste any time. We should take the dogs
to the emergency scene immediately. We must give the dogs clear
instructions and people mustn’t play with the dogs when they are
working. Sometimes, the weather conditions don’t help but rescue
dogs are well trained. They can work in all weather conditions.

Mum Does that mean you want an electric guitar?
Richard Yes, of course, but I know they are more expensive than

Mum What kind of music will you play?

How much does one of these guitars cost? Have you got

Richard Mary, my best friend’s sister, bought one last month
and she paid about £750 for it.
Mum £750? That’s a fortune! I think we should look for

them nervous. What do these dogs do? They look for people and help
them. They carry food and water to them.
In these cases, we shouldn’t waste any time. We should take the
dogs to the emergency scene immediately. We must give the dogs
clear instructions and people mustn’t play with the dogs when
they are working. Sometimes, the weather conditions don’t help
but rescue dogs are well trained. They can work in all weather
conditions.

Richard Mum, I need a guitar for school.
Mum A guitar?
Richard Yes, the music teacher will teach us to play the guitar.
Mum When will she start?
Richard Next week.
Mum Oh, that’s really soon! Do you need an acoustic guitar?
Richard You can choose but most students have got electric
guitars and they will take them to school.
Mum Does that mean you want an electric guitar?
Richard Yes, of course, but I know they are more expensive
than the others. Perhaps we should buy a cheaper one.
Mum What kind of music will you play?
Richard Rock, pop … I don’t really know … Maybe classical too.
Mum You will need an electric guitar to play rock or pop.
How much does one of these guitars cost? Have you got
any idea?
Richard Mary, my best friend’s sister, bought one last month
and she paid about £750 for it.
Mum £750? That’s a fortune! I think we should look for a
second-hand guitar online. If you learn and can play
well, you can join a band.
Richard No, Mum. I won’t. I don’t enjoy playing in public.

Now Monica is at home. She is not with her mum and dad. They’re
working. She is in her bedroom with her cat, Leo. Monica is watching
her favourite TV series, ‘The Big Bang Theory’, and Leo is sleeping
on Monica’s bed.
Monica is not wearing her pyjamas. She’s wearing a lovely dress
because she had a party last night and she returned home this
morning. When she arrived, her parents were having breakfast

go to bed. She is planning to sleep in the afternoon.

11 Audioscript
Good evening, friends. There are five very interesting films this week
but only two are excellent. The first one is ‘The cat ran away’. The
director is Martin Scores and it is a romantic comedy. This is ideal
for the family. The star of this comedy is Mary Ashton, the famous
American model. In the film, she is a cat psychologist. She has got an
Oscar nomination for her performance in this film, so you must see it!
The second film is ‘I was waiting for you’. This is not a comedy. It’s
a thriller. There’s a lot of suspense and action in this film with Tom
Shanks. You will feel interested, excited, nervous, frightened … You
must see this film. It’s absolutely fantastic!
And our third film today is ‘A rose for Alice’. It is not great but if you
like sad romantic stories, you will have a good time. ‘A rose for Alice’
is about a love triangle between a secretary, her boss and his wife.
The story takes place in a small village in the north of Scotland.
This is all for today. In our next programme, we will talk about other
films and also about the top ten American actors and their secrets.
See you!
