3 Script Part 1 Address: listening/amazing-facts Source: British Council Learn English Teens Length of piece: 3:43 mins. File name: Amazing facts A: Hey, I'm reading this really interesting article about the human body. B: Yeah? Weil, we know all about that from biology lessons. A: No, we didn't learn much at all at school! They're discovering loads morethings all the time. Really amazing things! Did you know that only about one tenth of the cells in your body are really you? The rest are bacteria. B: What? Im not really me? A: No, of course you are you, but you also have millions, or trillions, of bacteria in you. B: Eeeeuuugh! A: No, they're mostly really helpful. Someone did an experiment to see if animals can live without bacteria, and he found that a lot of them died or had to have a special diet. Animals need bacteria to digest food, you see. So we're better off with bacteria. B: Unless the bacteria are bad. A: Unless they are bad, but they're nearly all good. Oh yeah, and gaing back to cells, do you know how many cells you have in your body? B: Quite a lot, l'd say. A good few. A: Yeah, but how many? B: I don't know. I m not mathematical. A: 7 octillion! That's 7 plus 27 noughts. B: I knew it was a lot. A: OK, that's an amazingly huge number, almost impossible to imagine. But the really weird thing is that most of the atoms are empty space, just air or nothingness. And if you took out the empty space, you could fit your body inside a tiny cube which measures one 500th of a centimetre on either side. That's a box measuring of a centimetre an each side. You'd be much too small to see. B: Mmm, 1 can imagine that. lt sounds like something that would happen in a really bad Hollywood movie. You know, a mad scientist goes: (funny voice) 'Im going to extract all the air from your body'. OK, enough facts for one day. A: Don't go! One last thing, did you know B: No. A: Did you know that you probably have mites in your eyelashes? B: Mites in my eyelashes? What are mites exactly anyway? A: Yeah, they're very small creatures, like insects, only not insects. They're about a third of a millimetre long, so you can't really see them. These particular mites live in eyelashes and Seite 3

4 eyebrows. B: But in mine? A: Well, maybe not. Only about 50% of people have them, and more older people. So you might not have any. Anyway, they're completely harmless, they just eat dead skin. B: Yeah, right, harmless. 1 realiy would have preferred not to know that. A: Sorry. B: I mean, really! Part 2 (2 points for correct answers for 10 13; 1 point for 14 15; max. 10 points) 10. Food that is not picked right away can often rot. 11. This time of year seems to be cooler than usual. 12. Farmers are usually on a very strict schedule. 13. Rain at the wrong time can cause a lot of damage to their crops. 14. One man who grows said that he welcomed the cooler weather. peaches grapes rice crops 15. Some farmers hope that the rain will because of their crops. come soon pour down continue not start 2P./ Seite 4

5 Script Part 2 Address: Source: California Distance Learning Project, Adult Learning Activities Length of piece: 0:50 min File name: Farmers and the Weather The calendar might say "August," but the weather's more like October. For some farmers the cool weather is a good thing. For others, it's a cause for concern. At Apple Hill, the cooler weather was giving the Boeger Winery a chance to concentrate on bottling instead of picking. "Things were really maturing, its just been a welcome relief to have more time to prepare," said Greg Boeger of Boeger Winery. But down in the Delta, the earlier hot weather has them two weeks ahead of schedule. Their harvest actually started Tuesday, and this cooling trend is a worry. There have been no problems yet, but for each of the last two years heavy rain right after Labor Day was a problem, one that Don Pylman would not like to see repeated. "If it doesn't start raining, we're in good shape," said Pylman. "If the sun comes out and clears up we can get right back to work but if we do get rain, the rots will start." The kind of grape makes a difference as well. Thin-skinned grapes like the chardonnay variety are much more sensitive to rain than some of the others. They're also more difficult to dry off. Seite 5
