Fragment programu radiowego (rozmowa o wakacjach typu „glamping”):
Man: Alice, you look so relaxed! How was your camping holiday with your friends?
Woman: I wasn't camping. I was glamping.
Man: Glamping? What's that?
Woman: It's luxury camping. My tent, for example, was huge – about 50 sq.m. It had electricity, a fridge, a cooker and a bed. The bathroom was outside, just a few steps away from the tent. There was also a place for a campfire.
Man: Wow! Did you have to put your tent up by yourself?
Woman: No, everything was ready when we arrived. I didn't need to take anything with me except for clothes – the bed had clean sheets and pillows. There were also fresh towels.
Man: So, it's like staying in a hotel, isn't it?
Woman: Not really. The tents were located in the middle of a forest, next to a small stream. There was no road, so we couldn't get there by car. We had to walk for an hour to get to the site.
Man: And how did you spend your time there?
Woman: We spent most of the time outside in the fresh air. There was a mountain bike rental so on one of the days we had an exciting race in the forest. Another day we had a volleyball match. In the evenings we hung out around the campfire, playing the guitar and singing songs.
Man: Sounds like fun! But tell me, is glamping expensive?
Woman: Well, it was a bit pricey but it was still cheaper than staying at a hotel. And more fun, too! Next year I'll definitely do it again. It's a great option for me because I love spending time in nature.

Wypowiedź 1.
Leinster Gardens is a street in west London which doesn't look especially thrilling, but it is still worth visiting. If you walk along the street past numbers 23 and 24, you'll notice that the windows are painted grey and the doors do not open. Very few people know that what looks like the front of the houses is really just a wall behind which there is an ugly-looking ventilation system for the London underground. If you walk round the back of the wall, you won't see any houses there. Only underground tracks can be seen – and heard – just below.

I'm an artist and I live in a quiet street with terraced houses on both sides. When I had to redecorate my property I thought: what if every house on my street was a different colour? I managed to convince all my neighbours to paint their houses. Now the houses are different shades of yellow, blue and red. These colours look lovely in sunny weather. The people living in the street used to be strangers but now we often have a chat over a cup of tea. And the street has become so popular that sightseeing tours often visit the neighbourhood!

Seattle may not be a very popular place for sightseeing because it's the most rainy city in the US. Yet, when you are there next time and it's raining, look down at the city's sidewalks. Several painters have created art on them, using special paint that you can only see on a rainy day. So, when you are in Seattle and get caught in a heavy shower, why don't you stay outside and enjoy yourself? You may find a beautiful drawing or a fun message to cheer you up.

Man: Guess what happened at work today.
Woman: I have no idea! Tell me, Mark.
Man: An elderly man came in. He was wearing a very old T-shirt and dirty trousers. But I didn't care. A customer is a customer. I went up to him to find out what he wanted. He told me our shop was the fourth he had visited. Because of his appearance salespeople in the other shops had acted as if he wasn't there.
Woman: What happened then?
Man: He looked around and in a few minutes decided what to get. He chose a Harley-Davidson motorbike from the 1960s and paid $17,000 for it – in cash! I later discovered that he's a musician from a famous rock band who has recently become a great Harley-Davidson lover.

Have you ever watched a balloon rise up into the sky? People use balloons for birthday parties and parades and it's fun. But it's also terrible for the environment. Balloons can rise up to 8 kilometres into the Earth's atmosphere but they come down in the end. And then, when they land, they can be really harmful. If they fall into the sea, they can be eaten by a fish or a turtle. So if you're thinking about buying balloons for a big event, think again. Perhaps there's a different way to celebrate.

Man: True. What are your working hours?
Woman: We work flexible hours, which is great. I have to work 40 hours a week.

A Japanese company has designed an umbrella drone which can fly over its owner's head for up to twenty minutes. The drone automatically follows its owner and protects him or her from the rain, sun or snow. It will be especially useful for people who often carry things in both hands while walking. A disadvantage of the drone is that it is quite heavy. The designers are planning to reduce its weight to less than a kilo. They also want to increase its flight time to one hour before making their invention available in shops.

People who come to this restaurant eat as much food as they want but pay only once, so the place is very popular. They usually take reasonable portions but not always.

He hadn't eaten anything for 20 hours and then came to my place to eat as much as possible. I never criticize my customers, but I told him he wouldn't be served here anymore. He simply ate too much.

„Learn English if you want to make money; learn Esperanto if you want to make friends,” someone has said. „Esperanto” means „one who hopes”. Most people know about this language, and the truth is many enthusiasts of all ages, across the world, have decided to learn it. The World Esperanto Association has members in over 120 countries. Esperanto users write books, poetry and songs. Professional associations publish articles in the language and hold regular international meetings.

Fragment 2. (4.2)
The person who invented Esperanto was Ludwik Zamenhof. He worked on it for ten years and then in 1887 he published a book describing its rules. He dreamed of peace and tolerance and that's why he started thinking about creating a new language that would help people all over the world to communicate. He believed they would then solve problems through talking rather than fighting. His beautiful vision was soon forgotten, but Esperanto still exists.

Some people like studying Esperanto on their own using teach-yourself books. Others prefer learning the language in a traditional classroom, and if you are one of them, Stoke-on-Trent is the ideal place for you. This is because this British town has many schools of Esperanto. Those who are looking for more technological options can use various language-learning applications.

One of our crew members will then drive you across, so you'll enjoy your trip without worrying. There is no additional fee for this.

„Good morning. I'm looking for a covered bridge in this area. Do you think you could help me find it?” said a man to Francesca, who was standing near the porch.
„I'll be glad to guide you there,” answered Francesca, and climbed into his pickup. „Turn right,” she pointed.
„I'm Robert Kincaid, a photographer working for National Geographic. I'm here to take pictures of covered bridges in Madison County. I've located six of them, but I guess there's at least one more, and it's supposed to be out in this direction.”
„I think it's the Roseman Bridge you are looking for,” said Francesca. After half an hour she said, „There it is.” The old bridge with a red roof sat across a small stream. Robert Kincaid smiled.

AN UNUSUAL CEREMONY
The authorities didn't put off the opening ceremony for a bridge over a canal in the small town of Jested, although the bridge was a metre too short. They discovered this four days before the ceremony. However, the invitations had already been sent, so the official opening of the bridge took place at the previously announced time.
„We ordered a bridge to go from one side of the canal to the other. Someone made a mistake during the construction and now the bridge can't be used. Engineers say it will be ready in two months. But we won't organise a second ceremony,” the mayor of Jested said.
5.3. Which sentence is TRUE about the bridge?

The opening ceremony took place two months later than planned.

The authorities decided to organise more than one opening ceremony.

Many people get to see meteorites burning up in the Earth's atmosphere at least several times in their lives but few have the chance to see a meteorite up close. And then there are those who've had enough luck (or bad luck) to have their lives changed by a meteorite falling from the sky. Nearly thirty years ago, there was a strange and fascinating incident like that in Peekskill, New York.
Before 1992, only a few meteorites burning in the sky had been caught on film. However, on October 9th that year, the fall of a meteorite in Peekskill was filmed by a large number of cameras. Since it was a Friday afternoon, many high school students were attending a local football game and were able to film the fall of the meteorite. At least 16 of them recorded the meteorite as it fell from the sky like a green fireball.
When it fell to Earth, still burning, it hit the car of Michelle Knapp, who was 18 years old at the time. Michelle's parents had bought a second-hand Chevrolet for $300 a few weeks earlier and they had given it to her on her 18th birthday. When the meteorite hit, her beloved car was parked in her driveway and Michelle was watching TV in her bedroom. She was surprised by an extremely loud noise in her front yard and ran out to see what had happened. She thought that there had been a traffic accident in front of her house.
Instead, she saw something that almost gave her a heart attack. A meteorite had hit the back of her Chevrolet, gone through her car and landed on the ground below it. Michelle couldn't believe her eyes. She realized that her car had just been hit by a meteorite that had fallen from the sky!
Although Michelle's 10,000 to Iris Lang, wife of the well-known meteorite collector Al Lang. Museums from all over the world borrowed the car from Al Lang to put it on display. Michelle decided to break the meteorite into pieces and got $25,000 for each of them from three different private buyers.

Many people get to see meteorites burning up in the Earth's atmosphere at least several times in their lives but few have the chance to see a meteorite up close. And then there are those who've had enough luck (or bad luck) to have their lives changed by a meteorite falling from the sky. Nearly thirty years ago, there was a strange and fascinating incident like that in Peekskill, New York.
Before 1992, only a few meteorites burning in the sky had been caught on film. However, on October 9th that year, the fall of a meteorite in Peekskill was filmed by a large number of cameras. Since it was a Friday afternoon, many high school students were attending a local football game and were able to film the fall of the meteorite. At least 16 of them recorded the meteorite as it fell from the sky like a green fireball.
When it fell to Earth, still burning, it hit the car of Michelle Knapp, who was 18 years old at the time. Michelle's parents had bought a second-hand Chevrolet for $300 a few weeks earlier and they had given it to her on her 18th birthday. When the meteorite hit, her beloved car was parked in her driveway and Michelle was watching TV in her bedroom. She was surprised by an extremely loud noise in her front yard and ran out to see what had happened. She thought that there had been a traffic accident in front of her house.
Instead, she saw something that almost gave her a heart attack. A meteorite had hit the back of her Chevrolet, gone through her car and landed on the ground below it. Michelle couldn't believe her eyes. She realized that her car had just been hit by a meteorite that had fallen from the sky!
Although Michelle's 10,000 to Iris Lang, wife of the well-known meteorite collector Al Lang. Museums from all over the world borrowed the car from Al Lang to put it on display. Michelle decided to break the meteorite into pieces and got $25,000 for each of them from three different private buyers.
6.2. Which is TRUE about the car that the meteorite hit?
- A.
Michelle had paid $300 for it.
- B.
It had belonged to Michelle for years.
- C.
Michelle had borrowed it from her friend.
- D.
It had been given to Michelle as a present.
