M: What a smart-looking black dress! You look so elegant for my work party tonight.
W: Thank you. That suit makes you look slim. But I’m a bit worried. Do you think your work colleagues will like me?
M: Oh, yes. There are some colorful characters, but they’ll love you.
Text 2
W: I’m putting my name forward for the upcoming student election. I’m hoping to be the first student union president from Asia at the university.
M: That’s fantastic news — and you’d do a great job. I think you have a great chance of winning as everybody likes you!
Text 3
M: How much further is this walk?
W: Not long. We just have to walk past that big house and then through a park.
M: We’ve been walking through the forest for ages now.
Text 4
W: Watch what happens when I place some cheese on the edge of the wall just here…
M: Oh, my goodness! Is that a mouse that just grabbed it?
W: Yes! And the dog kept watching from his bed!
M: Maybe it’s time to get a cat!
Text 5
W: If it weren’t for my mom and dad, I’m not sure I would have got my degree.
M: Aren’t your professors very good?
W: Oh, they are great, and I have supportive friends. There were so many hard times when my folks helped me out.
Text 6
M: Isn’t it incredible how our DNA holds so much information about who we are?
W: Yeah, it’s like a biological map of a human being. I’ve been reading about it a lot lately as part of my biology homework.
M: It’s fascinating how it can influence not just our appearance but also our health and personality.
W: Absolutely. I wonder if we’ll ever unlock all the secrets hidden in our DNA.
M: It seems that the more we look closely at things like this, the more there is to discover.
W: Yes, the universe is never-ending, both looking out and looking in.
Text 7
W: What’s it like working as a sales representative?
M: Like most professions, it has its good days and bad days. Why? Are you thinking about following me into a career in advertising?
W: I’m keeping my options open at the moment. I’ll be going to college next year and I do need to think about my career.
M: I thought you always wanted to be a doctor.
W: That was when I was in primary school! Recently, I’ve been interested in engineering after being inspired by my friend’s aunt. But I’m not so sure now.
M: Well, you could do a lot worse than working in advertising. But the pressure can be quite high. How about you come to work with me for a few days during your winter vacation?
W: Great idea. Will I get paid?
M: No, but nice try.

M: That trip to the Atlas Mountains of North Africa was a very stressful experience.
W: What happened?
M: It was a two-week hike through the mountains. We had to cook our own food and set up camp each night.
W: That sounds easy for you. You’re always spending weekends away in the wild.
M: Yes, but only for two or three days! The maximum I’ve done before this was eight nights, and I usually found nice woodlands to sleep in or warm beaches. This place was cold and uncomfortable with loads of wild animals.
W: Like the Atlas lion?
M: No. But there were wolves! I could hear them calling in the distance at night! Plus, there were spiders and snakes everywhere! One of the group found a snake next to her when she woke up in the morning!
W: What? Did she get bitten?
M: No, I observed that the snake was poisonous, but it didn’t want to hurt her. It just wanted to keep warm! Anyway, we eventually made it across to the desert on the other side.

M: I love my job, but sometimes I can’t get my head around some of the numbers when studying our universe. It is just so big.
W: It certainly is. I often wonder about its size. In school, my teacher once said there are more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on Earth’s beaches… But that surely can’t be true.
M: Actually, it is. Carl Sagan, the author of a book called Cosmos, said this. Most scientists estimate that there are around ten times more stars than there are grains of sand on all of Earth’s beaches!
W: Wow, that is unbelievable!
M: I know! Hey, speaking of sand and beaches, have you thought about where we’re going on holiday this year? Do you still want to go to Italy for its fine food? Or would you prefer Spain for its wonderful beaches?
W: Actually, I found a lovely hotel in Iceland. There are high-powered telescopes on the top floor of the hotel specifically for looking at the stars!
M: What? Book it now!

Hello and welcome. My name is Adaline Greenwood. I am the manager of this great theater. Here, many amazing and inspiring musicals are held. Now I would like to offer each one of you the chance to take part in our next musical. This is an incredible opportunity for any young musician, actor, or actress.
To win the place, you all must perform a song with an instrument of your choice. We have all sorts of instruments, such as violins and guitars. When I was your age, I too took part in this competition. My instrument of choice was the piano.
This theater is famous for many things: musicals, ballets, and many more. It’s most famous for its opera though. During the 18th and 19th centuries, this theater was used as an opera house for the people of London. Not only did the opera attract the locals, but people from around the world came to see it, from as far as Sydney and New York.
It is important that all of you take the role very seriously, and perform to the best of your ability. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which will open doors for your future. You must be willing to put in hard work to see the best rewards.
You will start your performances at twelve and finish them by three this afternoon. You will have your results at seven this evening.
