Audio Script

1.
A: Have you met Raj, the student from India?
B: No, I haven’t.
A: Well, he seems really nice, but there’s one thing I noticed. He moves his head from side to side when you talk to him. You know, like this.
B: Maybe it means he doesn’t understand you.
A: No, I don’t think so.
B: Or it could mean he doesn’t agree with you.
C: Actually, people from India sometimes move their heads from side to side when they agree with what you’re saying.
A: Oh, so that’s what it means!

2.
A: So, how are things at school, Raj?
B: Oh, pretty good actually.
A: Do you find it easy to communicate with people?
B: Most of the time. Though there are some things I find a bit unusual. For example, the way that people end a conversation. You know, they’ll say things like “Hey, let’s get together soon.” At first, I thought they were inviting me to do something, but then I realized it’s just a way of saying goodbye. It’s not really an invitation at all. It takes a bit of getting used to.

The Answers

1. Move their heads from side to side when they agree with what you are saying.
2. Say “Hey, let’s get together soon” for saying goodbye.

Summary:

Conversation 1:
A and B discuss Raj, a student from India. They notice he moves his head from side to side when he listens. C explains that in India, this gesture can mean agreement, not misunderstanding or disagreement.

Conversation 2:
A asks Raj how school is going. Raj says it's good but mentions that some communication habits are unusual. For instance, he initially thought people were inviting him to meet when they said "Let's get together soon," but he later realized it's just a way of saying goodbye.

Imperatives in Conditional Sentences Type I


An imperative can function as the main clause of a conditional sentence type I. An imperative is a sentence which is a command or an order such as “Open the door.”, “Don’t close the window.”, “Let’s go.”, etc.

Examples:

• If you see Joe Jackson, kill him on the spot.
• If you see your grandpa, remember me to him.
• If you’re not busy, let’s go to the park and take a walk.
• If you have a stomachache, drink some peppermint water.
• If you see a beautiful flower, don’t pick it.
• If it is cold outside, don’t open the window.

Body Language


More than half of what we communicate is communicated not through words but through body language. This includes our posture, facial expressions, and gestures.

Because body language is so important, you will want to know what yours is saying and how to interpret other people's, too. Here are some examples of body language and its meaning. (Note: These meanings are for North America. Interpretations may differ a bit in other cultures.)

If your posture is slumped and your head is down, this could mean that you are sad or lack confidence. If your posture is straight but relaxed, you are expressing confidence and friendliness.

A smile is a sign of friendliness and interest. But people sometimes smile just to be polite. To get another clue from people's faces, notice their eyes. Friendliness and interest are expressed when a person's eyes meet yours (especially when you're the one who's talking) and then look away and meet yours again. A person who doesn't look away is expressing a challenge. A person who doesn't look at you is expressing lack of interest or is shy.

Hand gestures can mean a person is interested in the conversation. But repeated movements — like tapping a pencil or tapping a foot — often mean the person is either impatient or nervous. Stay away from someone who points at you while talking with you: That person might be angry at you or feel superior to you.

Unit 8, Reading: Body Language (PDF)


Sample Summary:
The text explains how important body language is. Body language means using your body to communicate without words. In North America, if someone slumps and looks down, it might mean they are sad or not confident. Standing up straight but relaxed shows confidence and being friendly. Smiling and looking at people shows you are friendly and interested, while not looking at them might mean you are not interested or shy. Using your hands while talking shows you care about the conversation, but doing it too much can mean you are impatient or nervous. Pointing at someone while talking can show anger or that you feel superior.

Banks


We usually go to the bank to draw some money or deposit some. We can open either a checking account or a savings account. The bank doesn't pay any interest on a checking account. It may pay some interest on a savings account. When we deposit the money into our account, the bank clerk gives us a receipt.

Merchants and some other people put their money in the bank to keep it in a safe place. Banks have strong boxes called safes for keeping money and other valuable articles.

Banks also finance foreign trade and travel by exchanging the money from people's own country with the money from other countries. They also address checks and bills to people who settle in other cities or countries.

When you borrow some money from the bank with the purpose of buying a house or other things, you have to pay some interest on the loan. You should have no trouble getting the loan if you have good credit.

In the present century, banking is no longer an individual profit-making activity as it was in the past. It provides many financial services and is a good resource for the whole society.

Unit 7, Reading: Banks (PDF)


Sample Summary:
People visit banks to withdraw or deposit money. Two common types of accounts are checking and savings accounts. Checking accounts do not earn interest, but savings accounts may earn some interest. When we deposit money, the bank gives us a receipt. Banks serve as safe places for merchants and others to store their money and valuable items. They also make foreign trade and travel easier by exchanging currency between countries. Banks handle checks and bills for people who live in different cities or countries. If you borrow money from the bank to buy a house or a car, you will have to pay some interest on the top of the money that you pay back. Nowadays, banking extends beyond individual profit-making and provides essential financial services for all people in the society.

📖 Workbook (Unit 7)


Session 17

Unit 7: Grammar

Conditional Sentences Type I

Conditional sentences type I are used to express situations that are possible or likely to happen in the present or future.

Formula of a Conditional Sentence:

If-Clause + , + Main Clause (Result Clause)
Main Clause (Result Clause) + If-Clause

A conditional sentence has two parts: an if-clause and a main clause (result clause).

When we use the if-clause at the beginning of a conditional sentence, it is followed by a comma. But when we use the main clause at the beginning of the conditional sentence, we don't need to use a comma.

Point:

In the main clause of a conditional sentence type I, we use “will”, “can” or “may” followed by the simple form of the verb.

Point:

In the if-clause of a conditional sentence type I, we use the simple present tense.

Examples:

  • If we set off now, we will arrive tomorrow morning.
  • If we set off now, we can arrive tomorrow morning.
  • If we set off now, we may arrive tomorrow morning.
  • We will arrive tomorrow morning if we set off now.
  • We can arrive tomorrow morning if we set off now.
  • We may arrive tomorrow morning if we set off now.

Conditional Sentences Type Zero

Conditional sentences type zero are sentences that express a general truth or a scientific fact. They use the present simple tense in both the if-clause and the main clause.

Examples:

  • If you heat water, it boils at 100 ° centigrade.
  • Plants die if they don’t get enough water.
  • If you mix red and blue, you get purple.

Point:

In conditional sentences type 0, “if” means “when”, “whenever”, or “every time”. Therefore, you can use “when” instead of “if” to show that the condition always has the same result. For example:

  • When I drink coffee, I feel more energetic.
  • Snakes bite when they are scared.
  • When it rains, the grass gets wet.

Ellipsis in Conditional Sentences

Ellipsis = Omission, Deleting

Point:

If the main verb is the same in the if-clause and the main clause, we can omit the main verb in the second part of the conditional sentence.

omit = delete

Examples:

  • If he agrees, I will agree, too.
  • If he agrees, I will, too.
  • If he doesn’t agree, I won’t agree, either.
  • If he doesn’t agree, I won’t, either.
  • I will agree if he agrees.
  • I will agree if he does.

Point:

In the third example, after we delete the main verb in the if-clause, there is no helping verb. Therefore, we should use a helping verb (do or does).

  • I won’t agree if he doesn’t agree.
  • I won’t agree if he doesn’t.

The Miracle of Sight


When a butterfly hovers near a bush, you can see both its beautiful colors and shape. And if it folds its wings and clings quietly to a flower, you can see it better. You may see the lines and spots on its wings and its round, shining dark eyes.

But do you know that most animals cannot see color? Only some mammals, such as apes and monkeys, and birds, can see color. Birds need to see color in order to judge distance, so they can catch bugs or alight on branches. But to other animals, such as dogs, the world looks like a black and white television show.

Some other animals and insects can only see things when they move. A butterfly will not see you unless you move. This insect sees your moving hair as a mass of ropes to cling to. Dogs, like butterflies, see best when things move. The animals they hunt seem to know this. A hunted rabbit or deer freezes so that the dog will not see or injure it. Hunted animals attempt to protect themselves this way.

Even the shape and location of the eyes of some animals and insects fit their requirements. The pupil of a horse's eyes, for instance, is long from side to side to help it see its enemies on either side. In cats and foxes, the pupil is long from top to bottom to allow them to see a bird up the tree or a mouse in the grass. Some small bugs even have their eyes located on the tips of their feelers. They are so much in danger that they need to see around things before moving ahead.

So, animals have developed sight according to their needs, and scientists have discovered enough unusual facts about their sight to fill us with wonder. However, scientists say there is a lot more they have to discover.

Sample Summary (in Simple English):
This text talks about how animals see the world in different ways. For example, while we can see the beautiful colors of a butterfly, most animals cannot see colors. Only some mammals and birds can see colors, which helps birds judge distance when catching food or landing on branches. For other animals like dogs, the world looks black and white. Some animals and insects can only see things that move. A butterfly will not see you unless you move. Dogs also see best when things move. This helps hunted animals like rabbits or deer, which freeze to avoid being seen by dogs. The shape and position of animals' eyes match their needs. Horses have pupils which are long from side to side to help them see their enemies on either side. Cats and foxes have pupils that are long from top to bottom, allowing them to see things above or below. Some small insects have eyes on their feelers to see around things and stay safe. Scientists have learned a lot about how animals see, but there is still much more to discover about the amazing ways animals view their world.

Recycling


Some waste is not dangerous. Often somebody will recycle it and do something useful with it. You can break up old cars to get the metal, or make new glass from old bottles. But some waste is toxic – it is very poisonous. In the USA, for example, factories dump – throw away – about 265 million tons of toxic waste every year. How do you dump toxic waste safely? Well, you can put it in metal containers and leave it somewhere safe, but this can be a very bad idea.

You can bury toxic waste. You put it in a deep hole and cover it with soil. In the 1930s, a chemical producer buried many tons of toxic waste in metal containers. In the 1950s, a builder bought the land and built a little town there. Nobody remembered the containers of toxic waste under the ground. Then, in the 1970s, the waste started to come through the metal of the containers and polluted the ground. Trees and grass blackened and died. There was a bad smell everywhere. People had to leave their homes. The people who cleaned up the place found eighty-two different toxic chemicals in the soil.

You can burn toxic waste, but it is more expensive than burying it, and the burning can produce dangerous gases. So some people burn their toxic waste at sea in special ships. The chemicals get into the air and the wind carries them a long way.

You can send your toxic waste to a poorer country and pay somebody to burn or bury it there. The USA sends toxic waste to Panama. Germany and Holland send toxic waste to the Czech Republic. Is this a good idea?

Toxic waste can be useful if you know how to recycle it. Some petrol producers bury their toxic waste in the soil. There, special bacteria in the soil eat the waste and change it into clean, safe carbon dioxide and water. In Britain, some people are growing special waste-eating bacteria. These bacteria eat toxic chemicals. There is a lot of toxic waste in the world: Are these bacteria hungry enough?

Sample Summary:
The text discusses the problem of toxic waste and how to deal with it. It mentions four ways of dumping toxic waste: leaving it in metal containers, burying it underground, burning it at sea, or sending it to other countries. It also suggests a better way of recycling toxic waste: using bacteria that can eat it and turn it into harmless substances.

1. Newspapers
A: Hey, if you’re done reading the newspaper, I’ll throw it out.
B: No, wait. I wanna recycle it.
A: Recycle the newspaper? That’s a good idea.
B: Yeah. Uh…. just put it in the closet. When we get a big pile, we’ll take it to the recycling center.
A: OK.

2. Cups
A: Hi Bob. Do you want a cup of coffee?
B: Yeah. Just a minute. My cup’s on my desk.
A: That’s OK. We’ve got styrofoam cups.
B: No. Let me get my cup. I don’t use styrofoam cups anymore.
A: Really? Why not?
B: Well, I was reading. Did you know that foam cups never break down? They never break down at all. They aren’t biodegradable. If I used the styrofoam cup today, it would still be around in 500 years. So, I use my own cup.
A: Wow! I didn’t know that.

3. Bags
A: OK. With tax, that comes to 28.19.
B: 28.19. OK. Here’s 30.
A: And your change. Would you like paper bags or plastic bags?
B: Neither. I brought my own bags.
A: Your own bags?
B: Yes, I’ve got these cloth bags. I always bring my own shopping bags. Saves trees you know.
A: Yeah. I suppose it does.

4. Plastic Bottles
A: I don’t throw away that plastic bottle. You can reuse it.
B: An old plastic bottle? What for?
A: To save water. You put some rocks in the bottle, and fill it with water. The rocks and water make the bottle heavy. You put the bottle in the bathroom, uh… in the toilet tank.
B: You put it in the toilet tank?
A: Yeah, it saves water. Every time you flush the tank you save 15 to 20 percent of the water.
B: It saves that much water? Wow!

5. An Air Pressure Gauge
A: What’s this thing?
B: That? That’s an air pressure gauge. You use it to see if there’s enough air in your tires.
A: Oh, I’ve never seen one like this before.
B: Yeah, I’ve started checking the air pressure in my tires every couple of weeks.
Did you know that if your tires are low, your car uses a lot more gasoline?
A: Mmm. I never thought about that.
B: Yeah. So with a two-dollar air gauge, I use less gas and save money.

Answer Key
1. example
2. don’t use
3. paper or plastic
4. toilet
5. air pressure – gasoline

Our Changing Diet


What do most North Americans usually eat? Many people think that the typical North American diet consists of fast food — hamburgers, hot dogs, French fries, pizza, fried chicken, and so on. They think North Americans also eat a lot of convenience foods usually frozen or canned, and junk food — candy, cookies, potato chips, and other things without much nutritional value. Unfortunately, this description is not totally inaccurate. Their diet is generally high in sugar, salt, fat, and cholesterol, and these substances can cause health problems.

However, some people's eating habits are changing. They are becoming more interested in good health, and nutrition is an important part of health. North Americans are eating less red meat and fewer eggs, and they are eating more chicken and fish. Chicken and fish contain less fat than meat and eggs. Many people are also buying more fresh vegetables and eating them raw or cooked quickly in very little water in order to keep the vitamins.

Restaurant menus are also changing to reflect people's growing concern with good nutrition. Even fast-food places now offer "lean" (low-fat) hamburgers, broiled or roasted (instead of fried) chicken, and salad bars with a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables.

How are we going to eat in the future? Because we now know about the importance of nutrition, we will probably continue to eat more fish and vegetables and less meat. We will still buy convenience foods in supermarkets, but frozen foods may be more nutritious and canned foods may have less salt and sugar. Our junk food will not be "junk" at all because instead of candy bars we will eat "nutrition bars" with a lot of vitamins and protein. In the future, our diet will probably be even more interesting and healthful than it is now.

Sample Summary
Many North Americans eat fast food, convenience foods, and junk food high in sugar, salt, fat, and cholesterol, which can cause health problems. However, eating habits are changing as people focus more on health. They are eating less red meat and more chicken, fish, and fresh vegetables. Restaurants, including fast-food places, now offer healthier options like low-fat hamburgers and salad bars. In the future, people will likely eat even healthier, with nutritious frozen foods, less salty and sugary canned foods, and "nutrition bars" instead of candy bars. 🍔🍏🥗

Unit 3: Reading

Life at a Snail's Pace


How far can you walk in an hour? Five miles? Three miles? Thirteen feet?

"Thirteen feet!" you might say. "That's not far. That's moving at a snail's pace!" One kind of land snail moves at thirteen or fourteen feet an hour. That's slow to us, but maybe we wouldn't think so if we carried our houses with us. And that's what a snail does.

Wherever it goes, a snail moves on a carpet of glue that comes from a gland in its body. The sticky stuff does its job well. Snails can crawl along the sharp edge of a razorblade without being cut!

Hot sun will dry out a snail's body, so on hot sunny days, it draws its body into its shell and closes the opening with a thin cover of glue. A snail will drown in heavy rain. So whenever it rains, a snail goes inside its shell house and goes to sleep. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all winter in its shell, asleep.

In spring, the snail wakes up and gradually stretches its three-inch-long body out of its shell. It hunts for food hungrily everywhere. It can't see very well, but its sense of smell helps it find fresh greens. Its tiny mouth, no bigger than the point of a pin, begins to work. Its 25,600 teeth are so small you can't see them, but they do their work well. A snail can eat for hours and never feel full.

Twice a year, in spring and fall, the snail stops eating and goes to look for a mate. Twelve to fifteen days after mating, it lays eggs in a hole in a damp, flat spot near the trunk of a tree or in a clump of grass. The fertile snail may drop as many as twenty-six eggs. It covers them and goes away, and after three or four weeks the eggs hatch into tiny baby snails with paper-thin shells.

Snails are fun to watch, but they are hard to spot because they are very small. If you find one, try to put it on a piece of glass. Then raise the glass and watch the snail from underneath. You can see how it moves — at a snail's pace.

Sample Summary:
Snails move very slowly, about 13-14 feet per hour, because they carry their homes on their backs. They travel on a sticky substance from their bodies, which even lets them crawl on sharp objects without getting hurt. To avoid drying out in the sun or drowning in rain, snails retreat into their shells and can sleep for long periods. In spring, they wake up, search for food using their sense of smell, and eat with their tiny, tooth-filled mouths. Twice a year, they mate and lay eggs, which hatch into baby snails. Snails are small and hard to spot, but fascinating to watch, especially on glass.

1. Snow leopard
- It is found in central Asia.
- It feeds on animals such as deer.
- Because people hunt it for its beautiful fur.

2. Panda
- It is found in China.
- It feeds on bamboo shoots, stems and leaves.
- Because of lack of food.

Audio SCRIPT

1. This solitary animal lives in the cold areas of central Asia and moves up to the Tibetan highlands in the summer. It feeds on animals such as deer often leaping as far as 45 feet to catch them. It is endangered because people hunt it for its beautiful fur.

2. This animal lives in the bamboo forests of the mountains of China. It stands around 6 feet tall and weighs about 200 pounds. To support its size, it must eat almost 85 pounds of bamboo shoots, stems and leaves a day. Because many bamboo forests have been destroyed, and because the bamboo has a very long growth cycle, this animal is dying out from a lack of food. Zoos are trying to breed them, but unfortunately have not been very successful.
