[00:23.28]There is a man who leaves the thirteenth floor apartment and goos to work every day. [00:29.70]He gets in the elevator, presses the button for the ground floor, [00:35.24]gets ont and goos to work. [00:38.53]However when he goes home, he presses the button for the twelfth floor [00:43.31]and gets out at the twelfth floor and walks up to the thirteenth floor. [00:47.83]Why? Why do you think? [00:51.96]B:The elevator won't go up to the thirteenth floor? [00:55.51]A:No, it goes up to the thirteenth floor. [00:58.88]B:Er...no. Can you give me a hint? [01:02.35]A:OK. Here is the hint. [01:05.91]If he carries an umbrella or a tennis rocket, [01:10.24]he gets off at the thirteenth floor. [01:13.35]2.A: Here is another riddle. [01:16.75]One day Bill and Mary were found dead in the middle of the floor of their living room. [01:23.17]The window was open and some broken glass and water was found next to their bodies. [01:29.31]However there was no blood on the floor. [01:33.05]How did they die? Here is a hint. [01:36.89]Bill and Mary are names used not only for people. [01:41.85]3. A: Now this is a difficult one. [01:46.19]A gardener was told to plant four trees. [01:50.52]All the trees must he in the same distance from the other trees. [01:55.96]How did he plant the trees? [01:59.20]B: How about like this? [02:01.99]This tree is in the middle of the other three trees [02:05.94]and other three trees are in a triangle. [02:09.46]A: Then the tree in the center [02:13.90]is closer to the other trees than the trees in the triangle are from each other. [02:18.87]B: Ah,all four same distance from each other. [02:22.81]A: From each other, yeah. [02:25.53]B: Can you give me a hint? [02:27.96]A: Well, they don't all have to be at the same level. [02:32.58]B: Oh. [02:34.88]4. A: There are nine dots arranged in three rows, three dots in row. [02:41.49]Now what you have to do is to connect all the nine dots using only four straight lines, [02:48.20]and you can't lift your pen from the paper. OK? [02:52.54]So, how will you do that? [02:55.26]B: Well, let's see...Let's do it this way...mm. [02:59.49]Let's go this way....And this way is three lines? [03:03.93]A: Three lines ! [03:07.27]B: Gee ... got a problem here. [03:10.09]A: Yeah, it doesn't look that you could make it. [03:13.72]B: Let's try again. Can you give me a hint? [03:17.07]A: OK. The lines can he extended beyond the boundaries created by the dots. [03:24.41]B: Ah, yes, yes, yes ... [03:27.96]Listen to the dialogue and complete the table below. [03:32.58]The first one has been done for you. [03:36.22]A: Oh Rod!Um,welcome back! [03:41.13]B: Hi Jim. My goodness. What on earth happened to the flat? [03:46.14]A: Er, I had a party with a few friends. [03:50.58]B. A few! It looks like a bomb fell on it. [03:54.74]A: kook. I'm really sony.I wasn't expecting you hack so soon. [03:59.31]I was going to tidy everything up before you got back. [04:03.04]B: Hmm. Hey, the leg on this table's broken, [04:08.76]A: Urn, yes. I think someone fell over it.I'll fix it, don't worry. [04:14.30]B: These are my records, aren't they? [04:17.93]This one's scratched. [04:20.26]A: Is it? Well I'll replace it,of course. [04:24.88]B: I've only just bought it. [04:28.04]A: Yes. I feel really bad about all this.You know what it's like, Rod. [04:33.19]Everyone was having fun and things just got,um,a bit out of hand. [04:38.54]B: Some of our glasses are broken too.Look. [04:43.06]A: Oh, I'll buy some new ones. [04:46.80]Urn,I'm afraid the record player doesn't work, [04:50.64]but I'll take it to the shop this afternoon. [04:53.88]B: Have you seen all this rubbish on the floor? [04:58.11]Empty cans, bottles,food, serviettes, cigarette ends [05:03.36]A: Yes, l was just about to clear it up. [05:07.04]I should have been more careful. [05:10.05]B: Whata disaster! What about these stains on the sofa [05:15.40]and the cigarette bums on the carpet? [05:18.75]A: Urn,I'll clean the sofa immediately and the cigarette bums. I'll ... well ... [05:26.19]3.Listen to Brian talking about an experience he had in Africa. [05:34.03]Then decide whether the following statements are ture or false. [05:39.41]Jan:Brian you've had some fairly horrifying experiences in your life,haven't you? [05:46.23]I mean, having lived all over the world and things like that. [05:50.96]Brian:Yes, I've been in earthquakes, [05:55.29]hurricanes, tornados, seen tidal waves, volcanos erupting,just about everything-- [06:01.93]all possible--floods,all possible natural disasters, [06:07.07]but I think the most frightening experience was being involved in a bus crash. [06:12.51]Jan: In this country? [06:14.65]Brian: No, this was in Africa, [06:17.47]in a bus which was going through the countryside on a dirt road. [06:21.68]Er it was a bus crowded with people, [06:25.62]crowded with luggage and the bus had stopped at a small town, [06:30.14]at a bar,where the driver had a few beers [06:34.37]and then loaded a crate of beer on the bus on the roofrack. [06:38.39]When we eventually set off from that place the driver got up speed and suddenly ran off the road. [06:44.82]Er,I remember the bus turning over two or three times and grabbing hold of a handle [06:51.06]and eventually the bus came to rest upside down. [06:54.80]All I could feel was a tremendous bang on the head [06:58.93]which later turned out to be the crate of beer. [07:02.37]The only sound was of the engine still running. [07:06.42]Jan:People weren't screaming, and things like that? [07:09.79]Brian:No, there was a dead silence,absolute shocked silence [07:15.91]and it was a long way from any town or any village [07:20.03]and the only thing you could hear was the engine. [07:23.48]The driver ran away into the bush, he was frightened, [07:28.10]so what happened was everybody crawled out through the back window [07:32.44]and left their suitcases and possessions [07:35.71]and everyone was terrified the bus would explode [07:39.47]and eventually someone had the sense to turn the engine off [07:44.17]and we all crawled back in again to get our possessions, [07:48.19]and no one seemed particularly injured, [07:51.75]everyone was just shocked and stunned [07:55.09]and it was only after about ten or fifteen minutes of sitting on the ground [07:59.43]that people began to collapse [08:02.77]and become unconscious and suddenly appear very seriously injured. [08:07.78]Eventually a lorry came and took us to hospital [08:12.20]and it was only in hospital I realised just how serious it was. [08:16.51]A girl sitting next to me on the bus was also sitting next to me in the hospital [08:22.33]and the nurse was asking her her age, her religion, etc.etc., [08:27.19]and suddenly the girl just lay down and died, [08:31.03]and three other people who'd been sitting near me also died. [08:35.47]So I think even though I've been in earthquakes and floods, [08:40.72]that was the most frightening experience, [08:44.54]being in the bus as it turned over and over. |
