Considering their wedding cost over $20,000 and took a year and a half to organize,
you would be surprised to hear that Richard and Victoria Hammond now intend to
forget it. Well, almost.
"It was a wonderful wedding, an unbelievable day," says Victoria. "But we have so
much we want to do together now, we are both looking to the future." Her husband,
banker and amateur race driver Richard, agrees. "Both our minds are now fixed
firmly on the future. I'll never forget our wedding ceremony or the reception we had
at a cliff-side hotel afterwards, but there's so much we want, so many hopes. Our
marriage is so much more important than the wedding."
"At the moment, we are still living with my parents," explains Victoria, "so our first
wish is to find our own place. We intend to start looking for a new house with all the
modern conveniences in the suburbs in the new year." Both Victoria and husband
Richard have a lot of siblings. Do they intend to add to the extended Hammond
family? "We plan on having two or three children ourselves," Richard tells me.
"Victoria is just wonderful with children and I can get 3 years paternity leave from
my work, which is just perfect."
The young couple has just returned from a two-week honeymoon spent in an
authentic Scottish castle. Both the newly-weds are big travel lovers and Richard
hopes this will continue. "I would like to go travelling as much as possible together.
Travelling with someone else is such a sharing experience. I think it's sad to
experience all the wonderful places in the world and have no-one else there."
Victoria also has another great travel ambition that she might have to do alone. "I
have always been fascinated by safari and my real wish is to go on safari. Richard

has no interest in wildlife though."
And what about the marriage itself? In a world with such a high divorce rate, how do
Richard and Victoria hope to avoid all the problems that beset so many other
couples? Richard explains thoughtfully that "our ambition is to always talk to each
other. If you stop communicating, what chance do you have?" His wife goes along
with that completely. "I hope that we can speak about things, but also not expect
everything to be easy. I think many people expect the wedding to be the end of
getting to know each other. I think it's the start."

The building company Hong Kong Housing is building a new suburb in Shanghai, a
city with a population of more than 15 million people. But this suburb is not like
other parts of Shanghai. It is a little piece of England. The name of the new area is
"English Town". The manager of Hong Kong Housing, Shi Guangsheng, says many
people in this area of China want to buy an English house and live in an English
town.
"This town is like Bristol or Chester. There is an English square and there are
pigeons to feed like in Trafalgar Square, London. There are four English-style pubs
and you can buy English beer to drink. There is a canal and you can row a boat
there like in Cambridge."
Are there any cricket fields? "No, there aren't any places to play cricket because
nobody in Shanghai can play this game. But there is a football stadium like those in
England. And the thing we are very proud of is our shopping street. There are
several shops where you can buy traditional English food like fish and chips or
Christmas Pudding."
The rich Shanghai businessman can do some gardening too. For with every house in
"English Town", there is an English lawn and there are long gardens with ponds and
tall hedges.

But there is one problem. The houses in this part of town cost a minimum of
$400,000!

Read the following talks about eating out and answer the question below:
1.The last time I went to a restaurant was about 2 months ago. My wife and I
wanted to celebrate our wedding anniversary with a good meal so we went to an
expensive Italian restaurant in downtown Lisbon. We both had pasta to start and for
the main course my wife ordered a steak and I chose fish. For dessert we both ate
chocolate cake topped with fresh cream. Delicious!

2. I went to a restaurant yesterday evening with my sister's children. It wasn't very
expensive and the menu was very limited. We all had a burger and French fries, and
drank cola. It wasn't very good.
3. My boyfriend loves spicy food so this restaurant was perfect. The waiters were all
really friendly and polite, and they played traditional sitar music which was very
relaxing. The menu offered vegetarian dishes as well as meat dishes served with
rice and a sauce - it depended on how hot you wanted it! I chose a mild beef curry
but my boyfriend had a lamb 'vindaloo' - he also drank 2 liters of water!!


4. My class at the university went there last weekend. It's a very popular type of
restaurant in my country. It generally offers one type of food (a kind of bread with
cheese and tomato sauce) which you then choose what ingredients to add on top of
it. I asked for olives and mushrooms on mine and my classmates each had
something different so we could taste a piece of each person's meal.

For one group of children aged between ten and fifteen, Saturdays are spent
learning the art of serious cooking. Their weekly lessons in small classes are so
popular that there is a waiting list of 30 children who want to do the course. Parents
pay $ 280 for the course where their children can have fun and learn how to make
good food,
Class member Bill, aged ten, says, ‘I love my mum’s cooking and now I can do it
better than her. The teachers make us laugh, especially when we sit down with
them to share the good we’ve made’.


Flora is twelve, and she’s having problems preparing onions. ‘I love cooking. I did a
meal for ten friends which they really enjoyed. Then my mum suggested I take up a
hobby, instead of doing nothing at weekends. I was happy staying at home, so I
wasn’t too keen at first. I’m really glad I decided to come, though’.
Their teacher, Phillipe, says, ‘It’s great fun. Children pay attention and remember
things better than adults, although the kitchen isn’t always as tidy when they’re

Siem Reap is a small town near the world famous temple of Angkor Wat. The town is
charming and worth exploring, with some fine examples of Khmer and French
colonial architecture set among the more modern developments. Nowadays, visitors
are flocking in, using it as a base for visits to the nearby temples.
From the 9th to the 14th centuries, when Europe was still struggling out of the Dark
Ages, the Cambodian Empire of Angkor covered most of present-day Cambodia,
Laos, Vietnam, and Thailand. The heart of this empire during the 12th century was
the ancient capital of Angkor Thom, near present day Siem Reap, the site of the
world’s largest temple complexes, which were rediscovered in 1861.This
spectacular city was built over 30 years under the reign of King Suryavarman II
(1113-1150). The area covers about 400 square kilometres and is full of the finest
examples of Khmer art and architecture. Tourists are always amazed at the scale of
the place.
In Angkor Wat you will find more than 100 stone monuments and temple buildings,
each of which contains countless statues, sculptures and reliefs that have
weathered extremely little over the last 800 years. To see the whole thing can take
several days. The most important temples to visit in the area are Angkor Wat,
especially at sunrise or sunset; Angkor Thom, the remains of the capital; Ta Prohm,
a palace overgrown by jungle; and Bayon.

Visas are required to enter Cambodia. You can obtain one on arrival at Siem Reap
International Airport for $20, and 1 passport photo is required per person. You will
also need another passport photo for the Angkor Temple Entrance Pass. Please
ensure you take comfortable walking shoes, light clothing and plenty of water to
drink as it is very hot there. The most commonly accepted currency in Cambodia is
the US dollar.

Wat is in poor condition today.

the capital.

Early morning in California, and Elizabeth Safran, a public relations consultant, is
dealing with a huge number of e-mails. Everybody in the small company works from
home and relies on e-mails and instant messaging to stay in touch. Elizabeth
worries about her work-life balance and thinks that ‘technology makes us more
productive, but everyone is working all the time – weekends, evenings. It is too
much.’
Five o’clock Friday afternoon in the , Paul Renucci, managing director of a systems
integration company, switches off his computer. He now works at home and is off to
pick up his children. In the past, it would take him two hours to get home from the
office.
Ms Safran and Mr Renucci represent different side of a modern problem: the
capacities of the latest communications technologies, such as e-mails, texts,
messaging and video conferencing, make it difficult to draw the line between work

and leisure and raise important questions about the nature of ‘flexible working’where employees can work where and when they choose.
There are three issues here. First, does the rise of portable, networked devices such
as the Blackberry and Palm Treo really damage an individual’s work and life?
Second, what is the effect of these devices on traditional workplace relationships?
And third, how do individuals manage them?
A Microsoft survey found that where flexibility had increased, so had productivity
and employee morale, together with lowered stress levels and staff turnover.


However, individuals can suffer technology-related stress as work moves into their
free time and from the complexity of the gadgets they must use, such as mobile
phones where manufacturers try to persuade customers upgrade more frequently.

Read the following article and choose the best answer for the following
question:
Leading investors have joined the growing chorus of concern about governments
and companies rushing into producing biofuels as a solution for global warming,
saying that many involved in the sector could be jeopardising future profits if they
do not consider the long-term impact of what they are doing carefully.It is essential
to build sustainability criteria into the supply chain of any green fuel project in order
to ensure that there is no adverse effect on the surrounding environment and social
structures. The report produced by the investors expresses concern that many
companies may not be fully aware of the potential pitfalls in the biofuel
sector.Production of corn and soya beans has increased dramatically in the last
years as an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels but environmental and human
rights campaigners are worried that this will lead to destruction of rain forests. Food
prices could also go up as there is increased competition for crops as both
foodstuffs and sources of fuel. Last week, the UN warned that biofuels could have


dangerous side effects and said that steps need to be taken to make sure that land
converted to grow biofuels does not damage the environment or cause civil unrest.
There is already great concern about palm oil, which is used in many foods in
addition to being an important biofuel, as rain forests are being cleared in some
countries and people driven from their homes to create palm oil plantations.An

analyst and author of the investors' report says that biofuels are not a cure for
climate change but they can play their part as long as governments and companies
manage the social and environmental impacts thoroughly. There should also be
greater measure taken to increase efficiency and to reduce demand.

Some scientists have predicted that healthy adults and children may one day take
drugs to improve their intelligence and intellectual performance. A research group
has suggested that such drugs might become as common as coffee or tea within
the next couple of decades.
To counter this, students taking exams might have to take drugs tests like athletes.
There are already drugs that are known to improve mental performance, like Ritalin,
which is given to children with problems concentrating. A drug given to people with
trouble sleeping also helps people remember numbers.
These drugs raise serious legal and moral questions, but people already take
vitamins to help them remember things better, so it will not be a simple problem to
solve. It will probably be very difficult to decide at what point a food supplement
becomes an unfair drug in an examination.

Which of the following is true? Heating and condensation produce the various
products.

According to the passage, ethnic conflicts…
Hatred is a fundamental human emotion that has deep root in society and
culture. Psychologists believe that group identity and cohesion depend to a
large extent on having a common enemy. It seems that the existence of "bad
guys" is an important element in defining who we are within a large realm. It
could be said that human beings love to hate. The first signs appear early in life

when a child, faced with blame for some mistakes, immediately accuses another
child or an inanimate object such as a teddy bear. Later, on the schoolyard
playground, children in rival groups vie for attention and influence. These basic
responses translate into more powerful emotions later in life. One area where
deep-rooted hatred is exhibited is in the ethnic clashes that constantly occur
around the globe. These conflicts are not only over territory but also involve
emotional issues of group identity and unity of purpose. For many, there is no
"us" without a "them" to hate. In a world where conflict between super powers is
on the decline, it may be that humanity will have difficulty adapting to a state of
mutual respect and cooperation.
