| 00:04.60]2 Talking about life in your country [00:12.04]What do you do back home? [00:16.40]Well,I was working in a car factory,but it closed down. [00:23.54]That's why I'm here,really. [00:27.69]I got some money when I lost my job [00:31.45]and I decided to go travelling for a while to think about what to do next. [00:36.91]And what are you going to do? [00:40.46]I still haven't decided.The economy's in a bit of a mess at the moment. [00:47.02]There's a lot of unemployment and people aren't spending much money, [00:52.58]so it's going to be difficult to find a new job. [00:56.95]I might try to retrain and do something completely different. [01:02.59]Have you got any idea what you want to do? [01:06.95]Not really.Maybe something with computers. [01:12.52]I might try to find a job abroad for a while before I do that. [01:18.18]What about your country? Is it easy to find work there? [01:24.04]Yes.A few years ago it was quite bad, [01:28.79]but the economy's doing quite well at the moment. [01:33.23]I think unemplohyment is about four per cent, [01:38.19]so finding a job isn't really a problem. [01:42.45]The problem is the cost of living. [01:46.11]Prices have gone up a lot over the last few years. [01:51.26]Everything is more expensive,so the money you earn goes really quicky. [01:57.52]Right.Sometimes I think I should move to somewhere like here. [02:03.77]I'm sure people don't get paid very much, [02:08.44]but the cost of living is so low and there's a better quality of life. [02:13.77]People don't work as hard;life is more relacxed; [02:19.10]the food's great;the weather's great;it's just very nice. [02:25.16]Yes,maybe,but don't forget that you are on holiday. [02:30.52]Maybe it's not like that for the people who live here. [02:35.19]No,maybe not. [02:38.43]So anyway,how long are you going to stay here? [02:43.40]Just till Friday.I have to get back to work.What about you? [02:49.56]How long are you staying? [02:52.80]Till I get bored or I run out of money.I don't have any plans. [02:59.64]4 Proununciation:of [03:12.31]the quality of life [03:20.18]a lot of money [03:24.72]the cost of living [03:30.08]out of business [03:35.22]lots of problems [03:41.39]a bit of a mess [03:45.83]3 While you listen [03:57.30]Did you see those two young people at the bus stop? [04:02.57]I did.Young people nowadays have got no shame. [04:09.84]We were never alowed to kiss in public like that,were we,Doris? [04:15.90]No.We lived in a more polite time. [04:20.75]The language young people use today-it's awful. [04:26.40]They swear all the time-using all those bad words.Honestly,it's shameful. [04:33.97]I know.Did I tell you what happened to me in the supermarket the other day? [04:41.70]No,what happened? [04:45.23]Well,you know I have a bad leg. [04:50.19]Oh yes.You have to use a stick sometimes,don't you? [04:55.84]Yes.Well,I did my little bit of shopping-you know, [05:02.99]just a little bit of bread and cheese-I don't eat much these days. [05:09.94]And then I bought some tins of cat food. [05:14.80]Just a few things,then. [05:18.17]Yes,and I came to the checkout to pay and there was a queue. [05:25.43]Well,my leg was hurting because I'd been walking round the shop,you know. [05:32.09]Well,you've got a bad leg,haven't you? [05:36.46]Mm.But no one offered to let me go first. [05:42.52]I just had to wait. [05:46.28]Oh,young people! [05:49.75]When we wer young,we always used to let old people go first,didn't we? [05:56.41]I know,but it just doesn't happen any more. [06:02.16]No.Young people today-they're always in such a rush. [06:07.80]Anyway,I told the boy in front of me.I said,'My let's hurting. [06:15.67]They should have help for old people like me. [06:20.32]We should get treated better.' [06:24.44]Good for you. [06:27.60]But do you know what he did then? [06:31.44]He called me something which I'm not going to repeat and he laughed at me! [06:37.61]No!That's terrible,Marge.They've got no respect,these young people. [06:44.69]Oh,look at those two standing by the door. [06:49.73]Are they boys or girls?You can't tell the difference sometimes [06:56.10]with these girls with their short hair and trousers [07:01.15]and the boys with rings in their ears and noses and everywhere. [07:07.31]Oh,I know.It wasn't like that in our day. [07:13.19]Girls were girls and boys were boys. [07:18.54](sound of a mobile phone?Oh that's mine.
