News Item 1:
Prenter: Now before the weather report, we have some road news for you from Philip Thomson.
Philip Thomson: Yes, well, the A41 is still very busy at the Dome roundabout this morning. Harrow Road, the A404, Harrow Road is now flowing freely, no problems there. The other congestion we have is in the A1M up near Hatfield. The M1 is heavy but at least is moving along, a little bit slower than normal. In Hammersmith, road repairs between Ridge Street and King Street are causing delay. Finally, a demonstration march at twelve thirty will cau congestion in central London.
News Item 2:
黄自Prenter: And now our weather report. Nice sunshine all day long today, soon becoming very warm, but there will be some relief from the heat with something of a breeze developing. Even so, the temperature will get up to twenty-five degrees later today; it’s already up to nineteen degrees Celsius now, at nine in the morning, and it’ll go on rising. Very little cloud at any stage during the day, just a few clouds drifting around early in the afternoon, so we should end up the day with a good fourteen hours of sunshine going into the record books. That breeze is an easterly one that’s going to keep the coastal areas a little bit colder during the day but still quite pleasant. Over the night, clear, dry weather, still a little bit of the breeze and the temperature down to sixteen in central London and twelve or thirteen out of town.

Accommodation:
Visitor: Where can I stay in this town?
Resident: There are lots of hotels, but they tend to be fairly expensive. And then there are bed and breakfast places, which are much cheaper—and you can find out about them through looking in the paper, or el just walking around the streets, and they have signs in the window saying ‘Bed＆Breakfast’. And then there are youth hostels.
Visitor: What are the youth hostels like?
Resident: The youth hostels are OK. All you get is a bed, but they do tend to be very cheap.
Visitor: Do I have to become a member?
Resident: Yes, you do, in fact. But it’s very easy to join, and there’s an office along the road, where you can go and sign on.

Schedule in the Nursing Home:
Mrs. Weston is describing her schedule in the nursing home.
I usually get up at 6.30. I’ve always been an early rir. When my husband was alive, we had to be up by five o’clock. He was a long distance train driver, you e. Before breakfast I have a cup of tea and I listen to music on the radio. Then between ven and eight I get dresd and eat breakfast—a boiled egg and a large glass of orange juice—I never have anything el. Then at eight o’clock I always watch breakfast television—for the news and the weather and the chat. And then I usually have a nap until lunch. That’s always at twelve. We have a big lunch here at Twybury’s—soup, roast meat, potatoes, vegetables, always a pudding. After lunch I like being taken out in my wheelchair, or even in a car, if there’s anyone to take me. I hate staying indoors. I like looking in the shop windows, or sitting in a park and watching the world go by. Sometimes someone will read to me or write some letters. I usually fall asleep about three, and then of cour we have our tea around five—nothing heavy—cold meats and salads and fruit, and that kind of thing. In the evening we play cards, or do knitting, and then I’m in bed by eight. I am getting on a bit, you know. I’m nearly eighty-three.
C. Free Samples:
Man: Good morning, love.
Woman: Morning.
Man: Sleep well? I’ve made some tea; there you are.
Woman: Thanks. Any post?
Man: Not really. There’s a postcard from Aunt Lil and there’s a questionnaire to fill in from the company which gave us the free samples of tinned meat to try out for them.
Woman: They’ve got a nerve!
Man: But we did say we’d return the questionnaire when we took the samples.
酒仙桥Woman: What do they want to know?

Man: I’ll put ‘not much.’ That sounds nicer. Then it says ‘If not, why?’
Woman: No flavour. Too much fat.
Man: ‘How did you cook it?’ is next.
Woman: Fried it like they said, didn’t I? Took a mouthful and gave it to the cat.
Man: ‘Guests’ comments, if any’!
Woman: The cat became ill. Poor thing, her fur went all green.
Man: ‘Did guests ask for the brand name?’
Woman: Tell them that our cat can’t speak.
Man: ‘Will you be buying our product regularly?’
Woman: Certainly not! They must be out of their minds.
Man: ‘Did you find the tin attractive?’
Woman: Cut mylf opening it. Nearly lost my thumb. Couldn’t u it for a week. I thought it was infected.
