Task 6.2

1. 
   Patrick Lichfield — the photographer, never goes far without the Olympus Pearlcorder dictating machine which lets him catch up with his correspondence wherever he is. The tiny tapes are either posted to his secretary, Felicity, or he gives them to someone to bring back. The quality is very good but there are often some interesting background noises.
   
2. 
   Mel Caiman — the cartoonist, jokes about filling his suitcase with tranquillizers and three different kinds of toothbrushes after recent, expensive dental treatment, but it is his diary and sketch-book that are always with him when he is on the move. "I don't keep a diary except when I'm away. I start a new one each trip now since I lost irreplaceable notes on two previous trips on a bus in the States."
   
3. 
   Richard Branson—, who recently launched Virgin Atlantic Airways, believes in travelling light. "Suntan lotion for my nose and my notebooks which are my lifeline. But I will always sling in a pack of cards. I love a game of cards, particularly bridge, canasta or spades, but I'm not a gambler."
   
4. 
   Barry Norman — the film critic, never travels anywhere without his credit card. The days of anyone being stranded abroad are now over. "I remember once, before credit cards were common, the Daily Mail sent me to Italy at a moment's notice. It was a bank holiday, I had no money and the banks were shut. There I was in Milan on a beautiful sunny day sitting in my hotel because it was the only place I could eat or drink because I could sign for it."
   
5. 
   Frank Muir — the TV scriptwriter and humorist, never sets off on a journey without packing his Swiss army penknife, "It does everything," he says. "It has about 140 things that come out. It opens bottles, gets things out of horses' hooves, it has scissors, screwdrivers, tweezers. I never go anywhere without it and I have never used it."

5. 
   Some students said that they know about the laws but do not obey them. They want to drive with their friends. Some teenagers are breaking the law by driving with friends in their cars.

Task 6.4

When you throw something in the garbage, it does not simply disappear. It may go on a long journey to a transfer station, a landfill site or an incinerator. Since it is difficult and expensive to dispose of garbage at landfill sites and incinerators, the government and other organization (0) .

Garbage from homes is picked up and taken to the nearest transfer station (1) where should go. If the garbage goes to a landfill site, it is spread out on the ground and carefully buried. If the garbage goes to an incinerator, it is burned. The problem with these methods of garbage disposal is that they cost money, take up land and cause pollution.

One solution to the problem of solid waste disposal is recycling. Some examples of things! (2) are glass jars, tin cans, office paper and newspaper. People can recycle used products (3) or by taking them to the recycling depot. The recycled goods are melted down (4) such as carpets, drainpipes, park benches and garden hoses.

Another solution to the problem of solid waste disposal is composting. Some examples of things that can be composted are lawn clippings, apple cores, orange peels and vegetable rinds. People can compost these food products by placing them in a special outdoor container (5) called compost. Compost, which contains plant nutrients, can be spread in the garden to help other plants grow.

Recycling arid composting (6) _ being buried or burned. These methods show people a new way of looking at garbage: many things people throw away can actually be used again.

A - where waste disposal employees decide

B when many prominent genetics consider

C where they decompose into a dark, thick, dirt-like substance

D by putting them in the "blue box" on garbage collection day

E are two ways of reducing the amount of solid waste

F to be used for products

G are encouraging people to recycle and compost their garbage

H that can be recycled

A Which scenes did you like filming most?

B Is it true you've been working out because the owls are so heavy?

C What are the best and worst things about being so famous?

D How has life changed for you since you entered the world of "Harry Potter"?

E What was it like working with Kenneth Branagh?

F What are your relations with other young actors who play together with you?

G Did you have nightmares after watching the film?

H What was it like working with Dobby?

I Are you like your character?

J What were the most challenging scenes for you?

K How did you like the action scenes in "Chamber of Secrets"?

1. 
   I've just started at a new school, and I've caught up with all of the other kids. On set I actually did better with one-to-one tutoring than in a class of people, so I've settled in really well.
   
2. 
   We are similar, in a way, because Harry's friends are very important to him, and my friends are very important to me. We also both get in trouble quite a lot. As I keep reading the books, I keep discovering more stuff about Harry that I have in common with him. I think we're both very curious — sometimes too much so, and that maybe gets us into trouble.
   
3. 
   Probably one of the best is seeing the finished product on the film. Everybody's worked on it for 11 months or so, and to see all the work that everybody on set has put into it, put together something as great as this film, is really great to see. And so far I haven't experienced a worst bit.
   
4. 
   The action scenes for me were so much fun. In the scene when I'm hanging out of the car window, that was actually me, I was hanging 25-30ft up in the air, and it was just really cool. I do as many of the stunts as possible, although obviously there are some I can't do.
   
5. 
   I loved filming the duelling scene, I thought that was really brilliant, because you've got the confrontation between Snape and Gilderoy Lockhart — who are totally different characters. I also loved the scenes where there were loads of people around, I love the crowd scenes.
   
6. 
   Probably one of the most challenging scenes was the Parseltongue scene, because it was a completely different language [Harry speaks to snakes in their own language] and it was hard to get a hold on at first. I got used to it in the end.
   
7. 
   It's intimidating when you're first about to meet him, because he's this unbelievable Shakespearean actor. But then you actually meet him and he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met. It's an honour to work with him.
   
8. 
   Kind of. I have been exercising a lot more, but not just for the owls. I've had to do more physical training for the film to do the climbing and the sword-fighting sequences.
   

9. 
   It was kind of hard knowing what kind of facial expression an orange ball is making. There were digital effects on the first film, but none were as animated as Dobby is, so it was quite hard work. But I think most of the credit goes to Chris Columbus and everybody who worked on the film, for making it so easy for me.
   
10. 
    I was fine with it, I liked it, I liked the fact it was a darker, more edgy film. If you take away the darkness that's in the book, then you haven't done it justice when you've adapted it.
    

Task 7.1

It is often hard to relax in the middle of a noisy city. Sometimes we need to find a quiet place where we can think clearly in a calm environment. Many years ago, Chinese merchants created special gardens just for this purpose. In 1986, the people of Vancouver were given the opportunity to enjoy the first classical Chinese garden built outside of China. Today, many people enjoy relax! in the peaceful atmosphere of Vancouver's Dr. Sun Yat Sen Classical Chinese Garden.

During the Ming Dynasty in China, from 1369 to 1644, many wealthy merchants built Chine classical gardens. The creators of the gardens used elements of nature to make a beautiful environment. While walking through the gardens of carefully arranged rocks, ponds and plants, the merchants relaxed and cleared their minds of stressful thoughts. For a short time during the day, they stopped thinking about the work they had to do. Then when they were ready to leave their gardens a return to work their minds felt refreshed. This helped them to concentrate on their many busing tasks.

In 1985, the governments of Canada and China worked together to create a Chinese classical garden in Vancouver. Fifty-two expert artisans from China spent one year creating the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden, which is modelled after the Ming Dynasty gardens in China. Most of the materials used to make Vancouver's garden were brought from China, including woodwork, large stones and small pebbles. After much work, the Sun Yat Sen Garden opened to public on April 24, 1986.

Today, many people in Vancouver like to stroll through the peaceful environment of the garden. They can leave the noisy streets of downtown and, like the Chinese .merchants, can relax a] forget about their worries for a short time. This style of garden, created so long ago, is now I of Vancouver's most beautiful and relaxing places.
