So, when you’re at work or in class, I’m in bed! I get up late in the afternoon. I still feel tired, so I just watch TV or I listen to music. I also work on Saturday and Sunday. So my weekend is in the middle of the week. I do my shopping on a Wednesday morning and I go to the movies on Thursday afternoons. It’s good because the town is quiet then. But my evenings aren’t great. I don’t see my friends much. And there aren’t many parties on Wednesday evenings!

In this week’s program, we look at the problem of tired teenagers. Many parents have the same problem – their sons and daughters just can’t get up in the morning. So why is this? Are they just lazy? Well, we know from scientific studies that young people have a different internal clock. They are fine late at night, but they don’t feel good early in the morning. They are often tired, so they don’t feel happy. Sometimes they are even angry with their parents and their friends. But a school in Massachusetts near Boson thinks it has the answer. Hampton High School has a new “no-mornings” schedule for its students ages 16 to 18. So the first class of the day isn’t at nine o’clock. The new school day for older students starts at 1:30 and finishes at seven o’clock. The principal thinks students are more interested in their work when they aren’t tired and stressed. And what about the parents? Most of them think it’s a good idea. And they like driving to school when the traffic isn’t so bad! And now for news on the best ways to destress at work … Vocabulary plus / Language in Action 1 1 taxis; buses 2 Planes 3 Underground 4 boat; helicopter/airplane 5 bike 6 motorcycles; cars 7 tram; train 2 1d 2b 3 1 Really 5 Cool 3c 4a 2 sure 3 Fantastic 4 great 4 1 Do you live?

So first let me tell you a little about SportsAble. We’re a sports disability charity, but a charity with a difference. We don’t just have offices – we have our own recreation center. We have two swimming pools, two gyms, and a large field for outdoor sports. This means we can help disabled people do a lot of different activities. And here are just a few examples: swimming, ping pong, golf, and archery. And our new sport for this year is wheelchair basketball – it’s very fast and really fun. And it’s a very popular event at the Paralympics. Here at SportsAble, we’re also part of the Paralympics. SportsAble was a training center for the Games in London in 2012. And some of our athletes are themselves Paralympians. The first year our athletes were in the Paralympics was 1976, just one year after Sportsable was started in 1975.

And I think I spent about seven hours using technology. Reporter Seven hours … Leyla Yes, I was on my computer for about three hours for work. I used Facetime to speak to my sister in Turkey, and then the internet again for emails. 10 Answer key Reporter And then I was on my cell phone for about two hours. In evening I watched a DVD for about two hours. OK, so what about your husband, Hasan? I think it was about ten hours. Ten hours! Yes, but I can explain. I used my computer all day for work.

My boss asked me to make ice cream, so I got the eggs and cream and a white bag from the cupboard. I didn’t really look at what was inside the bag. Big mistake – it wasn’t sugar, it was salt. I made the ice cream, tasted it, and it was awful. My boss was really mad, so I don’t make desserts for him now. Hello, my name’s Raj. I feel horrible when I think about my mistake. We were really busy in the kitchen one day, plus we had lots of calls for reservations. I answered the phone once, and a lady wanted a reservation for a big party of 70 people. I wrote down her name, phone number and the date, but for the number of customers, I wrote 17 not 70. On the day of the party, all those people arrived but we didn’t have tables for them. It was awful. Hey, this is Nina. I work really long hours in a hotel restaurant. One day, I was really tired after making lunch, so I decided to relax for half an hour in one of the hotel rooms. But I went straight to sleep. It was so quiet and warm, and I was asleep for more than three hours! I usually start to prepare dinner at four o’clock, so I was two hours late. My boss tried call me on my cell, but I just didn’t hear it. She’s a vegetarian. We can’t afford to eat in restaurants. I’m a foodie.

Here are some of their answers. Ping Hi, my name’s Ping. I work in a Chinese restaurant and I usually prepare meat and fish dishes. But one day, we had a very big group of vegetarian customers. I prepared a lot of fresh vegetable dishes, and all the rice and noodles. The food looked delicious. But then, at the last minute, I put in some shrimp and chicken. I don’t know why! The waiter didn’t see me do it, and he served the food to the customers. Of course nobody ate it! What a mistake! 12 Answer key Vocabulary plus / Language in Action 1 1 carton; glass 2 bowl; cup 4 plate; slice 5 can; piece 2 1 roast 2 bake 3 1 put 2 add 5 oven 4 1c 2a 3d 3 boil 3 jar; bottle 4 chop 3 knife and fork 4e 5 fry 4 mug 5b 5 1 want 2 have 3 you are 4 Would 5 I’d like 6 wants 7 Do 8 want 9 don’t want 10 check Unit 8 Lesson 1 1 1 Spanish; Catalan 2 Arabic; Turkish 3 Greek; Japanese 4 Russian; Mandarin Chinese 5 Italian; Portuguese 2 1 can write 2 can use 3 can’t swim 4 can’t dance 5 can’t play 6 can speak 7 can cook 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Can Emma sing and dance?

Can you tell us about it? Angie Sure. I’m a stand-up comedian. It’s my job to make people laugh. But I don’t just do it through single jokes. I like to tell funny stories. I look at everyday life and I find things to talk about. I’m also a musician, so I play the guitar and sing funny songs. Interviewer OK, so what’s a typical working day like for you? Angie Well, it’s very different from most people’s routine. I work at night, of course. I start at about ten, so that means I don’t go to bed until about 3 a.m. Answer key 15 Interviewer Wow, that is late! Angie Yes, but I don’t have to get up early the next day. I can sleep until about 11 a.m. Interviewer That helps! And do you have to travel a lot? Angie Yes, I work shows all over the country. I sometimes have to drive long distances and stay in hotels. Interviewer I see. Is that pretty stressful? Angie Actually, I don’t mind travelling – it’s just part of my work. And I love my job. When you tell a story and everybody laughs, it’s an amazing feeling. Interviewer So, what type of person can be a comedian? Angie You have to be confident, of course. And you have to be silly sometimes. Audiences come to a show to have fun. But it’s also hard work. I spend a long time preparing each show. I write new stories and songs all the time. It’s important to give the audience something new. Interviewer So, where is your next show? Angie I’m at a comedy club in Seattle all this week. I live in Seattle, so that means I don’t have to travel very far … Vocabulary plus / Language in Action 1 1 tights; dress 2 tracksuit; tennis shoes; swimsuit 3 ring 4 glasses 5 earrings 6 coat 7 socks/shoes/slippers 8 hat 9 jeans 10 earrings, glasses, jeans, socks, tights (boots, flip-flops, gloves, leggings, shoes, shorts, pants) 2 1 change 2 borrow 3 fit 4 try; on 5 wear 6 lend 7 take off 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Do you need; I’m just looking any; they’re this; small try these pants on; fitting How much; It’s size; I have Are you paying; cash 4 1 help 2 have 3 are 4 know 6 sit 7 feel 8 are 9 think 16 Answer key 5 try Unit 10 Lesson 1 1 a2 g5 b 9 c 8 d 11 h 4, 7, 10, 12 e 3, 6 f1 2 two syllables yoga, diving, zumba, salsa, tai-chi, climbing, judo, skipping three syllables karate, Pilates, weightlifting, kickboxing 4 1 2 3 4 5 They’re going to have lunch.

Is there anything a bit easier – maybe a group activity? Receptionist Of course, we have lots of great group activities – something gentle like yoga or tai-chi. They’re very popular. Or there’s a Pilates course starting next week. But if you’re into music, we also have zumba and salsa classes. Alison Oh, I love dancing. Zumba and salsa sound great. Receptionist OK, and you can always start with a dance activity and then try something different. Alison Great! So, what about the cost? How much is it to join? Receptionist Well, at this gym we have three levels – Gold, Silver, and Bronze. The top price is Gold and that’s $75 per month. Then we have Silver at $50 per month, and Bronze is a lot cheaper at $27.50. Alison Gosh, that’s still expensive. I can’t really afford that. Receptionist Don’t worry, that’s fine. We have pay-as-you-go tickets. Alison What does that mean exactly? Receptionist You pay for each activity on the day you come to the class. Alison Oh, that sounds good. How much is each class? Receptionist It’s $5. Alison Perfect! Pay-as-you-go sounds right for me. Receptionist OK. We have two salsa and three Zumba classes a week, all at $5.

Hmm, I don’t think “good” is really the right word. Why, what happened? Well, my gift from Rob was a surprise. I knew it was a trip, but he didn’t say where. He told me we had to go on a long car ride before I could have my surprise. So, we got up early in the morning. I went to get the car out of the garage and … we had a flat tire. Oh, no! Yes, but Rob changed the tire quickly and then we left the house. My birthday was the same day as a big sports event in the city, so there was traffic everywhere. We got to the highway and then waited and waited and waited. Finally, we started to move , but we were on the road for at least two hours. OK, so what was your surprise? Wait a minute, there’s more. We drove into the middle of a huge parking lot. And then it started to rain and it was really windy. Rob got a text, and he looked really disappointed. I had to wait for my surprise because of the weather. So that was another hour in the car. Answer key 19 Then, at about four o’clock, the sun came out and the weather was much better. We got out of the car, and there was a big group of people next to small office. They all had tickets and a lot of them had cameras. I didn’t really understand why they were there. Anyway, we waited for a long time, and at that point, I was really hungry. We didn’t have lunch because of all the traffic and bad weather. So what was your surprise? At five o’clock, we walked into a field. And then I saw a hot air balloon. That was my surprise – a ride in a hot air balloon. That’s wonderful! How romantic! Not if you don’t like heights. I hate being high up in the air. But Rob was so excited. I had to get into the balloon and spend an hour with my eyes closed, holding onto the ropes. Rob loved it. He took about a hundred pictures. I just wanted to get out. I was so happy when we landed back in the field and I was safe. Wow. That’s some story.

Last year, we made a lot of money, for several charities, so we need more of your good ideas for this year. Linda, would you like to start? Linda Sure. Well, I want to lose some weight, so I’m going on a diet. People can pay me for every pound I lose. How about $1 per pound? It would be great – I can get thinner and make money for charity. Emily Good idea, thank you. Joe, do you have any ideas? Joe Yes, um, my idea is to be quiet! Everyone knows I love talking, so I’m not going to say anything for 24 hours. So for eight hours at work and the rest of the day at home, I’m not going to speak. People will pay the charity when I finish the 24 hours – maybe $5 for the whole day? Of course, I’m going to be asleep for some of the time! Emily Good luck with that, Joe – great idea. So, Magda, what’s your idea? Magda I like the idea of dress-down Friday – you know, people come to work in ordinary clothes. They can pay for each thing they are wearing – 50p for a T-shirt, $2 for jeans and $5 for shorts and flip-flops, something like that. It could be fun to go to a meeting in a tracksuit! Emily Yes, that’s a good one. We made a lot of money from that last year. So, who’s next … Tom? Tom OK, right. I thought about something to do with transportation. A lot of people come to work by car – the parking lot’s always full. So why don’t we make money from that? People pay $5 if they don’t walk or bike to work. Or come by bus, of course. We could a make a lot of money that way. Emily What do you think? Yes, great. That’s an excellent idea. And finally, Erik? Well, this is an idea we tried in my last job and it was very successful. Work is very tiring, so my idea is that can take a “cat nap” at work. The idea is that you can put your head on your desk just for a short time and feel rested. People pay for every minute they aren’t working – maybe 50 cents per minute. But there’s a maximum of 15 minutes! You can’t nap all day! Thank you, everyone – these are some fantastic ideas … 5 1 True 2 False (She suggests they pay her $1 for every pound) 3 False (He is going to keep quiet at home too.) 4 False (They pay different prices for different clothes.) 5 True 6 False (They tried it where he worked before.)
