Everyone used to go to the cinema to watch films, but things are changing ... nowadays, more people are watching films and TV
programmes online. A new survey shows that 51% of people in the United States watch a streaming video at least once a week; 5% of people use a tablet to stream TV programmes or movies on a weekly basis, while 4% use a smartphone. Age makes a huge difference when you look at the numbers for streaming video. Not surprisingly, people in the age group 13 to 33 are in the majority, with 62% watching at least weekly. People in the age group 34 to 47 are in second place, with 46.7%, and it drops to 30% for people in the age group 48 to 69.

JOE Hi there, Julie! Are you having some
repairs done on your house? I saw the builder’s van outside. Have you been having problems?
JULIE Yes. It’s been a bit of a nightmare,
actually ... our water heater broke down and we had to get a new one. And we had a new one installed just a couple of years ago!
JOE That’s a bit expensive, isn’t it?
JULIE Yes, it is ... and then they found a leak
under the bathroom floorboards, and it looks like the floor’s rotten and needs replacing too.
JOE Oh, no! Did it damage the ceiling below? JULIE Fortunately not, but the whole floor
needs to be taken up and new
floorboards put down, and then some of the pipes need replacing and all the radiators need cleaning out ... so it’s turning out to be quite a big job.
JOE That does sound serious! I hope you’ve
got a good builder.
JULIE This is the second one we’ve tried. The
first one said he would charge over a thousand pounds and we just couldn’t afford it. So we found someone else who’s a bit cheaper.
JOE Oh, dear. I hope he’s not one of those
cowboy builders ... 13 Suggested answers
1 Because he saw a builder’s van outside her house.
2 Because there were so many problems with the house.

ASSISTANT Good afternoon, can I help you? CUSTOMER Yes, I’d like to return these jeans. ASSISTANT What’s the problem with them, sir? CUSTOMER I’m afraid they’re much too short.
They’re completely the wrong size.
ASSISTANT I see. Do you have the receipt? CUSTOMER Yes, here it is.
ASSISTANT Hmm, I’m afraid there’s a problem.
You see, you bought these jeans over a month ago, and the return date has expired.
CUSTOMER But that’s completely unacceptable!
The point is that I bought them here and I’d like to return them – I mean, they’re brand new! I haven’t worn them at all!
ASSISTANT I understand that, sir, but that is our
company policy. It’s written here on the receipt.

ASSISTANT Good morning. How can I help? CUSTOMER Well, there’s a slight problem with
this bowl. I’m afraid it’s cracked.
ASSISTANT Let me see. Ah yes, it does seem to
be cracked. Could I see your receipt?
CUSTOMER I’m afraid I didn’t keep it. Can I still
get a refund?
ASSISTANT Just a moment. Let me ask the
manager about that. I shouldn’t think it would be a problem.
MANAGER Good morning, madam. You’d like to
return this bowl, is that correct?
CUSTOMER Yes, that’s right. It’s cracked, as you
can see.
MANAGER Mm, well, we don’t usually accept
returns without a receipt. But in this case, we would be able to offer a replacement bowl if that would be acceptable?
CUSTOMER Yes, that would be fine. Thank you

ASSISTANT Good afternoon. How can I help? CUSTOMER Well, you see, I bought this coffee
maker here about two weeks ago, but when I switched it on, it made a funny noise and it didn’t work properly.
ASSISTANT I see. Let me take a look. Yes, we’ve
still got those in stock. Would you like a replacement?
CUSTOMER No, actually, I’d like a refund if
possible.
ASSISTANT Yes, of course. Have you got your
receipt?
CUSTOMER Yes, I have. Here it is.
ASSISTANT Fine. So that’s 34.99 to go back on
your credit card, then. Could you just swipe your card and enter your PIN?
... Right, that’s gone through for you
now.

MAX Rosie, what made you decide to be a
photographer?
ROSIE I think it was my art teacher who
influenced me most.
MAX Your art teacher? At school, you mean?
ROSIE Yes, that’s right! I’ll always remember my
art lessons with Mrs Roberts because she taught me to really look at paintings and think about them with fresh eyes. If she hadn’t taught me how to look at art, I’d never have become a photographer.
MAX I see! I never studied art at school …
I took carpentry instead. I wish I had, though, because now I really need to know about colour and design in my job designing web pages. I’ve had to
learn everything from scratch, really, and there’s so much you need to know.
ROSIE I know what you mean. I wish I’d studied
more about computers at school. It would really help now. But instead I chose fashion design and textiles. I thought I was going to be a fashion designer.
MAX And I thought I would be a furniture
maker!

MAN Could you show me how to play this
game?
WOMAN Yes, of course. It’s a game for two,
three or four players. Each person gets seven pieces.
MAN Do you just take any pieces you want? WOMAN Yes, but you can’t see what they are! MAN Then you try to make words out of
them, don’t you?
WOMAN That’s right. And the more letters you
use, the more points you get.
MAN Hmm. I guess you need to be good at
spelling ... 2
WOMAN Would you mind explaining the rules
of this game to me, please?
MAN Yes, of course. There’s a board, and
you need some dice and a counter that you move round the board. Each person has a certain amount of money to start off with.
WOMAN It’s not real money, is it?
MAN No, it’s play money. And when you
land on a square, you can buy the property there – if you have enough money!
WOMAN And what’s the aim of the game? MAN Well, the aim is to have the most
money and property at the end of the game.
WOMAN I see.
3
MAN Could you explain this game to me,
please?
WOMAN Yes! This is a game for two players.
Each player has 12 pieces and it’s played on a board like chess.
MAN It’s a bit easier than chess, isn’t it? WOMAN Yes, it is. The players take turns to
move a piece forward – they move diagonally. And if you jump over the other player’s piece, you can take it.
MAN So who’s the winner?
WOMAN Well, the loser is the one who loses all
their pieces!
MAN That doesn’t sound too hard – shall

Transcript 16
MATT Have you seen the magazine article on
how to improve your memory?
ALLY No, but it sounds interesting. What does
it say?
MATT Well, the first thing is that we all lose
memory as we get older, but there are lots of things you can do to keep your memory in shape.
ALLY That’s just what I need! Like what, for
example?
MATT Well, like playing games. Apparently
playing games and doing puzzles like crosswords and sudoku can help to keep your brain active.
ALLY Yes, I love crosswords, I must try to do
more of them ...
MATT The next thing is diet. ALLY Diet – really?
MATT Yes, some types of food are really good
for your brain. It’s good to eat fish and superfoods like blueberries, spinach, avocado and beets.
ALLY OK, that doesn’t sound too hard. What
else?
MATT Well, nowadays people do a lot of
multi-tasking, which means they aren’t really paying attention.
ALLY So just do one thing at a time and pay
attention to it?
MATT Exactly! Maybe make a list to help you
focus. And the final thing is to exercise regularly and get enough sleep. They say you should try to be in bed before midnight. Being fit and being rested both help the brain to function better.
ALLY Well, that sounds good – I guess I’ll be
off to the gym now before having my blueberry and avocado smoothie! 14 1 insomnia 2 lie awake 3 wake up
