[00:05.09]2 While1 you listen  More sleeping policemen!
[00:13.95]Did2 you hear about that did who was3 knocket down on Junction6 Road the other day?
[00:21.21]Yes,it was awful,wasn’t it? Still,it’s hardly8 surprising,is it?
[00:27.27]What do you mean?
[00:30.33]Well,there are always accidents9 down there,aren’t there,
[00:35.29]especially with the speed10 cars go at.
[00:39.73]And,well,basically,the crossing’s in the wrong place,isn’t?
[00:45.06]I don’t know why they’ve never moved it.
[00:49.53]I mean,it’d be better if it was exactly11 opposite12 the shops,wouldn’t it?
[00:55.59]Yes,I know what you mean.
[00:58.93]They could14 do something to slow the traffic15 down,couldn’t they?
[01:04.39]Maybe they could put sleeping policemen there or something like that.
[01:09.72]Yeah,maybe-maybe one every so often would13 help,
[01:15.60]but what would be really great if if they had16 one of those speed cameras.
[01:22.16]Bit Brother,you mean!
[01:25.63]No,they really make a difference17.
[01:29.57]You should see how they’ve slowed the traffic down where my parents live.
[01:35.14]Yeah,I suppose18 you’re right.
[01:38.66]I’m only against19 them because I got20 caught by one last month.
[01:43.94]You’re kidding!
[01:47.10]No.A hundred and fifty pounds22 it cost23 me!A fine and six penalty24 points!
[01:53.87]Oh,that’s terrible25!
[01:57.11]Yeah,but it was my own5 silly26 fault27.
[02:01.65]I mean,I should’ve known28 better,
[02:05.31]but going29 back to what you were saying30 about the crossing,you’re right.
[02:10.56]It would be far safer if it was closer to the shops,
[02:15.52]because that’s where everybody31 crosses,you know.
[02:19.89]That’s where most kids32 cross,so it’d be more sensible33 if it was moved down.
[02:26.65]Yes,I think that’s the root34 of the problem35.
[02:31.33]I mean,it does seem36 a funny place for a crossing.
[02:36.68]And I wouldn’ve said37 the other problem with it is
[02:41.54]the fact38 that lots of cars park all round there.
[02:46.40]Yes,that does make it difficult to see,I suppose.
[02:51.36]Apparently,the car that hit that kid21 had just driven off39 from there.
[02:56.72]Oh,really?Had it?Well,you see what I mean,then.
[03:02.60]4.Disagreeing40
[03:15.34]Listen and check your answers.
[03:20.20]Well,I agree41 up to a point,but(it’s not as4 simple42 as you think.)
[03:26.68]Yes,I know what you mean,but(it’s time we did something about it.)
[03:36.95]Yes,but don’t you think that (we should wait till7 later43?)
[03:46.32]Yes,but don’t forget that(everything costs44 money).
