A Suggested new site for the gift shop

B Suggested site for the information office

C Suggested site for the tennis courts
D Suggested new site for the picnic area
E Suggested new site for the swimming pool
F Suggested new site for the cafe
So Bryan Ive had a look at your proposed plan for the park and I think we may need to
make some alterations Im not convinced that the lay out is quite right. I think we
should keep some of the same facilities we just need to relocate them a little. Let me
talk you through how I would change things around.
First of all, I see you have the car park to the west of the site a little way from the main
entrance to the north. Thats fine. I do think though that it makes sense to move thegift
shop to plot next to the main entrance opposite where the caf is now and just
before the lake (A). That way all the paying customers will see the shop as it is I think
many may just not see it down that road on the east side.
Next up. There may be problems with having the swimming pool right next to the river
I can foresee all sorts of health and safety issues there. It makes sense to keep it in
the same neighbourhood, but I would move it a little to the north and west further
away from the river (E). I also think that we should place the cafe next to the new site
for the swimming pool right at the end of the path (F) it would make a good place for
people to sit and relax after a long walk.
What else? Ah yes. The picnic area. Its currently a little bit in the middle of nowhere.
Wouldnt it be better placed next to the trees where the swimming pool currently is
(D)? It would be much more scenic if it people could picnic among the trees.
Can I also suggest some more facilities? Firstly, how about an information office? My
feeling is that this probably is best sited fairly near the main entrance people will then
to know what they can find when they enter the park. My idea is that we put it in the
centre of the park more or less opposite the lake (B). That way everyone should be
able to find it.
Also most parks nowadays arent complete with some sports facilities. Im not a sure a
swimming pool is enough and the golf course is really off site. Tennis is a growing
sport and Id say a perfect spot for some tennis courts would be to the south east of
the site on the bank of the river (C)`

Good afternoon everybody and welcome to Riverside Industrial Village. To
start your visit I'm just going to give you a brief account of the history of the
museum before letting you roam about on your own. I won't keep you long.
OK?

Now, from where we're standing you've got a good view of the river over
there. And it was because of this fast-flowing water that this site was a
natural place for manufacturing works. The water and the availability of raw
materials in the area, like minerals and iron ore, and also the abundance of
local fuels, like coal and firewood, all made this site suitable for idustry from
a very early time.

Water was the main source of power for the early industries and some of
the water wheels were first established in the twelfth century, would you
believe? At that time,local craftsmen first built an iron forge just behind the
viflage here, on the bend in the river. By the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries the region's rivers supported more than a hundred and
sixty water mills - and many of these continued to operate welf into the
nineteenth century. But then the steam engine was invented and then the
railways came and the centres of industry were able to move away from the
rivers and the countryside and into the towns. So, industrial vilfages like
this one became very rare.

So that's the history for you. If you'd fike any more information, you can ask
me some questions, or you can read further in our exceflent guide book.
Now I'm going to give you a pfan of the site and I'd just like to point out
where everything is and then you can take a look at everything far yourself.

I've already pointed out the river, which is on the left. And of course,
running along the bottom is Woodside Road, got it? OK. Now we're
standing at the entrance, see it at the bottom, and immediately to our right
is the Ticket Office. You won't need that because you've got your group
booking, but just past it are the toilets - always good to know where they
are. In (rant of us is the car park, as you can see, and to the left, by the
entry gate is the Gift Shop. That's where you can get copies of the guide,
fike this one here.

Now, beyond the car park all the buildings are arranged in a half circle with
a yard in the middle. The big, stone building at the top is the main
Workshop. That's where the furnace is and where all the metal was
smelted and the tools were cast, as you'ff be able to see. Now, in the top
right-hand corner, that building with bigger windows is the Showroom,
where samples of all the tools that were made through the ages are on
display. In the top left corner is the Grinding Shop, where the tools were
sharpened and finished. And on one side of that you can see the Engine
Room and an the other is the Cafe, which isn't an antique, you'll be pleased
to know, though they do serve very nice old-fashioned teas.

The row of buildings you can see on the left are the cottages. These were
built for the workers towards the end of the eighteenth century and they're
stift furnished from that period so you can get a good idea of ordinary
people's living conditions. Across the yard from them, you can see the
stables where the horses were kept for transporting the products. And the
separate building in front of them is the Works Office and that still has
some of the old accounts on display.

Right, if anyone wants a guided tour then I'm starting at the Engine Room.
If you'd like to come along, this way please, ladies and gentlemen.

Agent Good morning. Can I help you?
Customer Yes, I'd like to get some information about trips to New Zealand.
Agent Certainly. Take a seat and I'll be right with you.
Customer Thanks.
Agent Now, where would you like to go in New Zealand?
Customer
Well, I was hoping to do a bit of travelling around, actually. There are a few things I'd like to
see and do before ! go back home.
Agent Right.
Customer
One thing I really want to do is go to Christchurch. I have relatives living there that I can stay
with - my mother's cousin - and I've heard it's a nice place.
Agent Yes, it's a lovely city. And staying with relatives will help with the budget, of course.
Customer The budget?
Agent It will save you some money.
Customer
Oh right! Well, I'm not too worried about that. I've saved quite a bit of money working in
Australia.
Agent
Oh, that's nice. Good for you! Well, you know that New Zealand consists of two main islands,
the North Island and the South Island, and Christchurch is on the South Island.
Customer Is it? I was never very goad at geography at school! Da you have a map I could look at?
Agent Sure! Here we are.
Customer
Right. I see. And... well... then I'd also like to spend some time in Auckland. And maybe I
could do an English language course there. Can you organise that sort of thing for me?
Agent
Certainly. We'd be happy to arrange that. But bear in mind that Auckland is in the North
Island.
Customer
OK. And I'd also like to do some skiing or maybe even some snowboarding. I hear New
Zealand is a great place forthat.
Agent
Yes, absolutely. But you should go to Auckland first for your studies, and then you can get the
ferry across to the South Island and take the bus down to the snow.
Customer Oh, I don't like boats very much. I'm not much of a sailor. I think I'd prefer to fly.
Agent Right. What about joining a walking tour? That could be really fun.
Customer
Not sure about walking, but joining a tour might be a good way to travel, because then I
might make some friends my own age.
Pause
Agent Now, let's get some details. Can I have your name, please.
Customer Yes, it's Su Ming Lee, but you can call me Sue.
Agent OK, Sue. And what's your address here in Melbourne?
Customer I'm living with my aunt in the suburb of Kew. It's 29 Loch Street. That's L O C H not L O C K.
Agent Do you have a phone number that I can get you on?
Customer
The best thing would be if I give you my mobile. I always have it on me. It's 0 4 0 2 double 5 8
double 92.
Agent OK. And when do you want to travel? Because you'll need to be dawn south in July or August.
Customer Oh, yes. Of course. That's winter, isn't it? So I'd better go to Auckland in May...
Agent
Yes, Let's say departing from Melbourne on the first of May - that's a Saturday - and then you
could begin your course an Monday the third.
Customer That sounds great!
Agent And how long would you like to study for? A month, two, three? What do you think?
Customer Well, I'll probably need more than a month. What about eight weeks... until the end of June.
Agent Fine. I'll see what I can do. Oh, and how would you like to pay for this?
Customer On my Visa card if that's possible.
Pause
Agent
Hello Sue. It's Angelo from Kosmos Travel here. I've booked your flight and I've found you an
English college called The Harbour Language Centre.
Customer Great! Where exactly is that?
Agent Well, have you got that little map I gave you yesterday?
Customer Yes.
Agent You see where the harbour is, with the three wharves and the water?
Customer Yes, got that.
Agent
OK, there are two parallel streets - Quay Street, that's Q U A Y and Customs Street. The
building where the college is located is on Quay Street, opposite Princes Wharf.
Customer Right, got it. And what about accommodation?
Agent
Well, I've booked you into a hotel for the first three nights and then the accommodation officer
will find you a family to live with.
Customer Good. And where's the hotel?
Agent It's a short walk from the college, on the corner of Queen Street and City Raod.
Customer Which corner exactly?
Agent On the left-hand side as we are looking at the map.
Customer OK. Near the little park.
Agent Yes, that's right.
Customer
And what about a good bookshop? I'm going to need to buy a dictionary and some English
books.
Agent
Yes. Well, I believe there's a really good language bookshop on the corner of Customs Street
and Queen Street. It's near the college so that's pretty convenient.
Customer Thank you so much. You've been really helpful.

Mia: Hello, David.
David: Oh hi, Mia. Sorry I'm a bit late.
Mia:
Oh. No problem! Thanks for agreeing to help me with my assignment today. I really needed to
go over it with someone.
David: Sure. You were going to talk about European rock art, weren't you?
Mia: Yes, the rock drawings in the caves of Lascaux in western France.
David: Oh, fantastic, over 13,000 years old, I believe. What sort of drawings are they?
Mia:
They're drawings of animals on the whole, but you can also find some human representations,
as well as some signs. There are roughly 600 drawings at Lascaux.
David: Really? Were they mostly pictures of bulls?
Mia:
Well, no, actually, the animal most depicted was the horse. Have a look at this graph. It shows
the distribution of the different animals. You see... first the horse. and then after that a sort of
prehistoric bull...
David: Oh, OK. That's interesting, isn't it?
Mia:
...and the third most commonly drawn creature was the stag. There were some other animals
but these are the main ones.
David: What are the drawings like? I mean, what sort of style?
Mia:
Well, the bulls are depicted very figuratively - they're not very realistic. They are very bigby
comparison to the other drawings, of people and signs. They appear to be almost three-
dimensional in some cases, following the contours of the cave walls, but of course they're not.
David:
Amazing. Perhaps they felt these animals were the most impressive and needed to be
represented like that.
Mia:
Yeah, maybe. The drawings of humans by contrast consist of just simple lines. Like the stick
figures my little sister draws. Perhaps humans were seen as less important.
David: Mmm, perhaps. What about the signs. How did they draw them?
Mia:
There doesn't appear to be much evidence of signs, and those that have been found are usually
made up of little points.
David: Rather like Aboriginal art from Australia.
Mia: Yes. Something like that, but not as complex, of course.
David: So apart from the bulls and horses and stags, were there any other creatures depicted?
Mia: In one or two chambers, you do find pictures of fish but they're quite rare.
Pause
David: What sort of size is the cave? It must be quite large to have that many pictures.
Mia:
Well, it's actually a number of inter-linking chambers, really. Here's a map showing where the
different drawings can be found.
David: Oh, good. Let's have a look at that.
Mia:
The first 20 metres inside the cave slope down very steeply to the first hall in the network.
That's called the Great Hall of the Bulls.
David: Here. OK.
Mia:
Then off to the left we have the Painted Gallery, which is about 30 metres long, and is
basically a continuation of this first hall.
David: But further into the cave.
Mia:
Exactly. Then we find a second, lower gallery called the Lateral Passage. This opens off the
aisle to the right of the Great Hall of the Bulls. It connects the next chamber with an area
known as the Main Gallery. At the end of the Main Gallery is the Chamber of Felines. There
are one or two other connecting chambers but there's no evidence of man having been in these
rooms.
Pause
David: Is the cave open to the public today?
Mia:
Well, no. Because after the initial discovery in 1940, it was opened and literally millions of
people came through to see the drawings. Then in the fifties the experts started to worry about
the damage being done to the drawings, and the government finally closed the Lascaux cave in
1963.
David: Is that so!
Mia:
It wasn't really the tourists that were doing the harm, but the fact that after thousands of years,
the cave was suddenly open to the atmosphere and so bacteria and fungi started to destroy the
pictures. You need a special permit to enter the cave now and very few people can get that
unless they're scientists or have some official status.
David:
It's a shame, but I can see that they had to do something to protect the cave. So that means you
can no longer see this rock art.
Mia:
Well, not exactly. What they've done is re-create the drawings in a man-made cave, which you
can visit.
David: Oh brilliant!
Mia:
Yeah, the authorities decided to reproduce the two best sections of the site so they'vecreated a
life-size copy of the Hall of the Bulls and of the Painted Gallery. It's just a cement shell, which
corresponds in shape to the interior of the original.
David: So now you can visit the caves without actually harming any of the 13,000-year-old paintings.
