Speaker 1

Once I travelled from London to Oxford. It’s very convenient to get there by bus. The buses are quite comfortable and you can buy a ticket when you are right on the bus. You can buy it from a driver, it’s all right, but make sure, that you have the right coins or banknotes. It’s not polite to keep other passengers waiting while the driver is looking for your change.

Speaker 2

Today we are going to see the most ancient part of the city. The historians say that some buildings there date back to the fifteenth century. The entrance to most museums, we are going to visit today, is free, but we’ll have to buy tickets to get into the Central Museum of Arts. I advise you to buy a group tour ticket as it will be cheaper per individual. We won’t have to take buses or any other transport as this is a walking tour. The meeting point is at the reception at 10 o’clock, right after your breakfast. Do not forget your cameras...

Speaker 3

Welcome to our college! We hope you enjoy studying with us.
On the very first day in our college you’ll get a student’s card. The card contains the most essential information about you, such as your name, the name of the school, the course you are taking. This card is necessary if you want to borrow some books from the college library. And it also gives you discounts in the stationary shop, in the students’ café or if you use city buses. Tickets for students are cheaper than for other passengers, but you need to have your card with you. And certainly if you go somewhere by our school bus, the driver may ask you to show your student’s card.

Speaker 4

The students of our school enjoy lots of privileges. They can get free access to city libraries, half-price bus and train tickets, discounted tickets to swimming pools, and, if necessary, they can get a doctor’s consultation and medicines absolutely free. We also provide our students with six free hours of internet access for free. It’s enough for educational purposes and they can write lots of e-mails home to stay in touch with their families. However, if they want to browse the internet for more than six hours a week or play net games too much, they’ll certainly have to pay more…

Speaker 5

When you register for the exam, you need to fill in the form. Please write your first name and your last name in block letters. Your contact information should contain your address and your telephone number, so that we can contact you by phone. After that, you get your exam ticket – it’s a special card where you will find your personal number, the date and time of the exam, number of the room you need to go to, and the name of your examiner. Please, make sure that you come on time. We don’t accept any excuses like missed buses or traffic jams.

Задания А1-А4

Now we are ready to start.

R: Hi, your name is Sophie, isn’t it? Do you remember me?

S: Yes, I think so. I saw you at our welcome party at the college. You are a second year student in this college, aren’t you?

R: Right, I was the guy who talked about the sports facilities in our campus. And I bet you don’t remember my name, do you?

S: Don’t prompt. You are Rudolf…?

R: No.

S: Rupert?

R: No. But you are on the right track, my name starts with the letter R.

S: Richmond?

R: Enough, it’s not a name-game, and I’m pretty disappointed that I failed to impress the newcomers.

S: Oh no, it’s not that!

R: It’s ok. And my name’s Raymond. Ray for friends… and for people who
can’t remember long names.

S: I-I’m sorry.

R: Never mind. Do you remember at least what I was talking about?

S: Oh, yes! You gave us lots of information about the college sports centre, and about facilities you have here for doing sports. I’m particularly interested in aerobics classes and in the swimming pool.

R: es, aerobics is very popular among girls. Aerobics classes are the earliest ones. We run them from seven am.

S: So early?!

R: Yes, and if you want to book a more convenient time, run to the coach right now and ask what time’s still available.

S: I will, thanks… And the swimming pool? What time does it open?

R: From half past seven. But there are not too many people in the pool usually. Most people prefer cycling, football and basketball to swimming. We’ve got a very good football pitch and a tennis court here.

S: You must be very good at all these sports. Where can I see you next time – on the football pitch or in the gym-hall?

R: I’m afraid neither. I don’t go there very often.

S: Don’t you? I thought you spent all your time there.

R: Not there. I’m a computer geek, not an athlete. You are much more likely to see me in our computer club. Browsing the internet, making web pages, chatting in forums. See you there then.

S: Ok, see you.

Прочитайте текст о Мальтийских островах. Определите, какие из приведённых утверждений A5–A8 соответствуют содержанию текста (1 – True), какие не соответствуют (2 – False) и о чём в тексте не сказано, то есть на основании текста нельзя дать ни положительного, ни отрицательного ответа (3 – Not stated). 

The Maltese Islands are a group of little islands in the Mediterranean Sea. The population of Malta is about 400,000 people. In spite of being so small in size, Malta is quite a famous place and lots of tourists visit it every year.

Tourists in Malta have many kinds of entertainment to choose from. Clear and warm water is full of marine life and attracts divers and people who enjoy swimming and sailing. The place is also unique for people who are interested in history and architecture as there are lots of historical buildings, temples and cathedrals there. There’s the evidence that the first settlers appeared in Malta about 7,000 years ago, so this is one the oldest places on the Earth inhabited by people.

The Maltese are proud of their unique history. They survived through the Arabs and Roman occupation, and they remember the knights of Malta, Napoleon and Nelson. They do their best to keep their history and traditions and are always glad to share it with tourists. Band clubs are part of the social and cultural history of the Maltese Islands. They see their aim in spreading the culture and teaching of music. The idea of forming some music societies or band clubs appeared in the second part of the 19^th century. Small bands were formed in little villages. Anyone could join them. As most participants could not afford to buy a musical instrument of their own, well–to–do villagers helped to pay for the instruments on the condition that the musicians would perform at their village feasts. Today, according to the latest survey by the statistics office, the total number of bandsmen/women is over 4000. Many well–known musicians started their career in a local band club and performed at their village feasts.
