00:09.90]Hair today,gone tomorrow!
[00:15.15]So,we’ve got to take this one and then change at Cannon¹ Street,right?
[00:24.40]Yes,that’s.Hey,did I tell you about what happened 
[00:30.04]with me and my dad on the underground last year?
[00:34.51]No,go on,what?
[00:38.03]Well,about a year and a half ago,
[00:43.08]I decided² to get all my hair long hair cut off,right?
[00:47.93]I always used to have really,really long hair
[00:53.08]-ever since I was about fourteen or fifteen,
[00:57.21]you know-way down past my shoulders-parted in the middle like curtains,
[01:04.08]So,anyway,about a week after I had it all cut off,you know-really short-
[01:10.24]and I looked quite different.
[01:13.80]Yesh,I bet³.So,anyway,I was going home on the tube⁴,
[01:19.65]and I was half asleep because it was five or six o’clock
[01:25.68]and I was just standing⁵ there,
[01:29.13]-and a little did I know that my dad
[01:33.20]was actually coming back from a business trip abroad,
[01:38.25]passing through London on the undergroud to get his train back to Durham.
[01:44.20]And guess what?He got into the same carriage as me!
[01:50.16]The doors closed behind him.So there I am,
[01:55.72]standing there face-to-face with my own father!
[02:00.76]I don’t recognise him at first,
[02:04.89]but then I think,’Ah,that’s my dad.’and,of course,
[02:10.17]he’s obviously⁶ only seen me with really long hair for the last then years,
[02:16.54]and so I’m standing there,staring at him
[02:21.19]and he keeps on glancing at me nervously,thinking,
[02:26.05]’Who’s this lunatic staring at me?’and I’m thinking-you know,
[02:31.72]it’s the strangest feeling not being recognised by your own dad
[02:37.28]-so I just stood there thinking,
[02:41.44]’Well,shall I just get off at the next stop without telling him,
[02:46.69]or shall I risk giving him a nervous breakdown⁷ and a heart attack by saying,
[02:52.33]’Hello dad?’But,anyway,eventually I went,’Hello dad?’and he went,
[02:59.77]’Diane!’and then said how he was getting really worried
[03:05.13]because he though I was a pick-pocket or a drug addict⁸
[03:09.70]or something who’d been getting ready to pinch⁹ his wallet
[03:14.35]or something-and,um,yeah,that was a pretty strange and funny thing.
[03:22.21]Yeah,really strange.
[03:28.09]6 Story-telling expressions
[03:43.56]Listen and check your answers.
[03:48.41]Did I tell you about what happened to me in France last year?
[03:53.69]No,I don’t think you did.Go on.
[03:57.95]Well,I was on holiday with my parents in this little village near the sea,
[04:03.70]and we ran out of money.
[04:07.17]Really?That’s awful.
[04:10.93]Yes,so we went into town to find a cash machine-which we did,no trouble.
[04:17.70]Anyway,when we put the card in the machine,
[04:22.45]it just started spitting¹⁰ out loads and loads of money.
[04:28.09]You’re joking!So did you keep it?
[04:32.74]Of course we did!Wouldn’t you?
[04:36.82]3 Pronunciation
[04:48.89]Listen and notice where the speaker pauses¹¹:
[04:54.95]There was this great big dog,sitting there,barking at me.
[05:00.70]Listen to these short sections of speech and mark the pauses.
[05:10.44]1.It was five or six o’clock and I was standing there,minding my own business.
[05:19.40]2.My dad was actually coming back from a business triip abroad,passing through London.
[05:28.96]3.He keeps on glancing at me,thinking,’Who’s this lunatic staring at me?’
[05:38.91]4.I was dancing about in the street,acting like a fool.
[05:48.37]5.I was lying there on the ground,screaming in pain.
[05:58.22]Now listen again and underline¹² the strongest stress :

[06:53.88]2 While you read Spider woman
[07:08.25]Have you heard the story of the woman who dried her cat in the microwave after it had got wet
[07:18.28]-or the one about the woman who opened a bag of prepared saled
[07:23.72]and out popped a fully-grown frog?
[07:28.37]Whether they are true or not,we love telling each other scary¹³ stories.
[07:34.92]Unfortunately,the story that follows is definitely¹⁴ true.
[07:41.09]Recently,a woman living in Kent in suthem England went to her doctor.
[07:48.35]For days she hadn’t been ablt to sleep because of noises in her ear.
[07:54.51]The doctor told her that this was not unusual.
[07:59.56]Lots of people have noises in their ears.
[08:04.00]However,when he looked into her ear,he got the shock of his life.
[08:10.16]He could see legs and something moving.
[08:14.89]It was a large spider!The woman was absolutely terrified¹⁵ of spiders!
[08:22.65]The doctor was able to re,pve ot qiickly and set it free.
[08:28.21]When speaking to a colleague¹⁶ a few days later,
[08:33.49]the doctor mentioned that that was the first time 
[08:37.93]he had ever found a spider living in someone’s ear.
[08:42.66]His colleague suggested that the spider was probably looking for somewhere warm
[08:48.93]in order to lay its eggs.
