Tapescript I:
J = Jane Swaine
P = Peter Walsh
J: Please sit down, Mr. Walsh. My name’s Jane Swaine, and I’m the personnel manager.
P: Hello. How do you do?
J: Now, this is just a short preliminary interview. I’d like to chat about your present job and what
you’ve done up till now.
P: Yes, of course.
J: Wll, could you tell me how long you’ve had your present position in Weston’s. It is Weston’s, isn’t it?
P: Yes, that’s right. Um, I’m not sure. Let’see. I left university in 2005 – is that right? – yes, 2005. Then,
I was unemployed for a bout three months, and then I travelled round America for a few months, so
yes, it must be about three years now, in fact.
J: Um, yes. And have you any particular reason for wanting to change jobs? I mean, why do you want
to move?
P: Well, I actually like my present job and still find it interesting and stimulating. The salary’s Ok, so
it’s nothing to do with money, though you can always do with more. I suppose the thing is that I’m
really very ambitious and keen to get promoted, so that’s the real reason.
J: You say you like your job. Can you tell me what aspect you like most?
P: Oh, my dear. That’s difficult. There are so many things. The other people are great, there’s a good
co- operative atmosphere, I mean, among the staff, and compared to other companies, the conditions
are great. I mean the office itself and the working conditions.
J: Um
P: And then, there’s the fact that they give me lots of room for initiative and let me make decision. You
know, that’s what I really like most about the job.
J: Yes, well, we’re looking for someone like that. You know, someone who isn’t a clock-watcher and
who isn’t too concerned about working fairly long hours.
P: Oh, I don’t mind that. I’m used to it.
J: And what about your education? You went to Manchester University, didn’t you?
P: Er, yes. After leaving school I started a diploma course in Design, but I decided to give it up and did
an Arts degree at university instead.
J: Good, and have you done any courses since?....
II. Listen to a report on healthy lifestyle. Complete the following sentences, using NO MORE

(1 p; 0.25 point/correct answer)
1. Chinese
2. 80 minutes
3. longevity
4. (the) society
Tape:
A new study shows the importance of exercise for teenage girls. Researchers analysed data on 75,000
Chinese women aged between 40 to 70. They found that women who exercised regularly as teenagers were
healthier than those who didn’t. Teenage girls who did 80 minutes exercise a week had a 16 per cent lower
risk of dying from cancer and other diseases. This percentage was 13 for women who exercised more than
80 minutes a week. The researchers said that in general, women would live longer if they did just 15
minutes of exercise a day in their teens.
According to the research, doing exercise as a teen would increase longevity even if they stopped
exercising when they were older. Regardless of adult exercise, teen exercise would reduce the risk of
illnesses like cancer. Although the findings were based on women in China, the benefits of exercising
during the teen years apply to women worldwide. Therefore, schools, parents and the society should
encourage teenagers to do exercise regularly. It is an effective way for them to prevent diseases in later life.
