Beginning of the tour. This is the Ellis Island audio guide. You are listening to our special tour for kids.
Welcome to the museum.
((Beep))
Room 1. Imagine yourself in the past. One hundred years ago, maybe in the year 1910 or in 1920. You
are a poor immigrant from Europe. Arriving in New York City, this is the first room where you arrive,
the baggage room, where you leave all your bags and your personal objects for the rest of your stay.
In those days, many immigrants were very poor, so there were very few personal belongings.
((Beep))
Room 2. This is the medical room. All the immigrants had to see a doctor. If you were sick, you could
not enter the United States. So they had a medical examination in this room.
((Beep))
Room 3. This is the legal inspection room. In those days, immigration officers interviewed all the
immigrants, sometimes through an interpreter. There were twenty nine questions to answer. For
instance: are you married? What is your occupation? How much money do you have?
((Beep))
Room 4. The immigrants who were sick could not enter the country so, first they came here, to the
detention room. It’s like a prison. After that, they returned to their country on a ship. It was a
separation for many families and it was very difficult for them.
((BEEP))
End of the tour. If all the inspections and investigations were ok, then the immigrants transferred to
New York and they were free to work, to live and to become Americans. In just fifty years, from 1880
to 1930, about twelve million immigrants arrived in the USA.

Dangerous, difficult, poor, rich, a bag, a baggage, belongings, personal objects, an immigrant, a
prison, to be free, to be married, to become, became, to have money, to interview, to return.
Unit 8 A Trip to Scotland

Lisa: Well, I’d definitely like to go to a place where I can take lots of nice photos. I want to post a lot
of pictures on Instagram this time, so that all our friends can follow our trip. What about you?
Jim: I’d love to swim in lakes. Even if the water is a bit cold…Run in the forest…I want to feel nature.
Lisa: Ok, ok. But I’d like to visit some cities and towns too. I want to get to know something about
Scottish people and culture too. Not just the animals in the woods!
Jim: Haha…Yeah don’t worry. I’m ok with visiting a couple of cities.
Lisa: Great. So…nature, some sport activities and city life.
Jim: Yep and we’ve got a maximum of seven days to spend. Let’s see which tour has that in the
leaflets…

Impressive, romantic, spectacular, unforgettable, wonderful, a castle, a cliff, an island, a loch, a lake,
a moor, a mountain, a river, a waterfall, to enjoy, to explore, to go kayaking, to go sightseeing, to hike,
to ride a train.
Track 13 p. 105

This is the weather forecast. Now, let’s see what the weather will be like tomorrow. The south of the
country, near Glasgow and Edinburgh, will have nice weather. It will be sunny and the temperature
will be around seventeen degrees centigrade. In the west and in the midlands, the weather will be dry
but windy, with temperatures around ten degrees centigrade. Hikers - be careful, because there may
be thunderstorms on Ben Nevis. In the east, around Aberdeen, don’t forget your umbrella. It will be
rainy all day tomorrow, I’m afraid, and the maximum temperature will be eight degrees centigrade.
In the north of the country it will be very cold and quite cloudy. The temperature will be around seven
degrees centigrade. There is a chance of some showers and it may be snowy in the Highlands. That’s
the forecast.

Cloudy, rainy, dry, snowy, sunny, windy, a shower, a thunderstorm, the temperature.

An art gallery, a cathedral, the city centre, an entrance fee, an exhibition, a lighthouse, a museum,
opening hours, a shopping area.
Track 14 p. 107

Tourist Information: Glasgow tourist information office, what can I do for you?
Naomi: Good morning. I’ll be in Glasgow next week and I’d like to plan my visit.
Tourist Information: Of course. There are many wonderful places to visit in Glasgow. Why don’t you
go tot he Glasgow School of Art and the Kelvingrove Art Gallery. You can also
see…
Naomi: The problem is that if I stay only one day, I won’t have much time to see very
much.
Tourist Information: Ok, so you’ll have to choose carefully.
Naomi: I know, that’s why I need you help. I’d like to visit the lighthouse, the cathedral,
the botanis gardens…maybe more places. But could you tell me the opening
hours?
Tourist Information: Aha…The Botanis Gardens opens at 7am in the morning, so you can start there.
Then, if you go there early and take the subway, you’ll be able to get to the
cathedral at 10. Then you can walkt to the lighthouse because it’s really close.
Naomi: Ok, what about Kelvingrove Art Gallery or the Riverside Museum, how can I get
there? Are they worth visiting?
Tourist Information: Certainly. They’re both great places. Maybe I’d recommend after the cathedral
you take the subway to the Riverside Museum and after that you can take Bus
number 100 to Kelvingrove. That would make a very nice visit. Remember that
most museums close at 5 o’clock. So you’ll have to hurry a little.

Naomi: Great, thank you very much. I’ll follow your recommendations.
Tourist Information: You’re welcome. Don’t forget to visit our website for further information or,
if you have some time on Saturday, come to the tourist infotmation office and
we’ll give you leaflets and everything you might need.
Naomi: Thank you very much for your help. Bye.
Tourist Information: Bye now. Thank you for your call.

What are the opening hours? How much does it cost? How can I get there? Is it worth going? Is it
worth visiting?

Hey I’m Tara and I live and go to school in Dublin. I live about 20 minutes from school on the bus. I
get up at 6.45am Monday to Friday So I have an hour to get ready and leave for school. Normally,
I wake up and I look at social media on my phone for a few minutes. Ya know, check Instagram and
Snapchat. Well, I usually get up at 6.45 but today I wake up and then I fall asleep again. Ugh I wake
up at…10 past 7! So I have to run, no time for my phone! Oooh…I run downstairs to eat my breakfast.
Normally I have cereal, some fruit and coffee. But today I just have a banana. I don’t like running in
the morning and I hate starting the day with no coffee! I always have a shower and get dressed and I
usually take some time to do my hair. But today I do my hair in one minute! I get my bag and normally
leave the house at 7.45 and walk to the bus stop. But today I leave the house at 7.50 and I run to the

School starts at 8.40 in the morning. On Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays I have business studies.
I don’t like these classes because it’s very complicated and not fun! We learn about salaries, budgets,

don’t see why. I have English avery day and Spanish is my foreign language. My Spanish classes are at
8.40 on Wednesdays and Thursdays. My best friend Sophie is in my Spanish classes. She loves writing
and she goes to a writing club after school on Wednesdays. She likes reading in Spanish too so she

favourite subjects – art in the morning and drama in the afternoon. I also have geography at 12.30
and the teacher is really nice. Tomorrow afternoon is great too – I have PE after lunch. We finish at
3 o’clock. We play different sports. And then IT – information technology. We usually make websites
and videos on the computers. I sometimes see my friends Callum and Aidan after school. We listen
to music or play video games. Callum goes to drama club on Fridays. What time does your club start,

the only one that I don’t like. I usually like ball sports – rugby, tennis – but my favourite sport
is by far football, or soccer as they call it in America. I love the passion of football on TV. I like
watching all kinds of sports. But football has to be the number 1.
Lisa: What‘s my favourite sport? My favourite sport is skiing. But my favourite sport to watch on
TV is ice hockey. I love ice hockey. I think it’s the best sport on television today. Mmmm…but
I don’t like football at all.
Peter: My favourite sport would actually be badminton because I hate sports. I don’t like football, I
don’t like ice hockey. I just hate it when my friends always talk about sports and I don’t like
watching the games on TV at all. So I guess the only sport I like is badminton.
Unit 7 New York, New York

Beginning of the tour. This is the Ellis Island audio guide. You are listening to our special tour for kids.
Welcome to the museum.

Room 1. Imagine yourself in the past. One hundred years ago, maybe in the year 1910 or in 1920. You
are a poor immigrant from Europe. Arriving in New York City, this is the first room where you arrive,
Bloggers 1 fourteen 14

the baggage room, where you leave all your bags and your personal objects for the rest of your stay.
In those days, many immigrants were very poor, so there were very few personal belongings.
((Beep))
Room 2. This is the medical room. All the immigrants had to see a doctor. If you were sick, you could
not enter the United States. So they had a medical examination in this room.
((Beep))
Room 3. This is the legal inspection room. In those days, immigration officers interviewed all the
immigrants, sometimes through an interpreter. There were twenty nine questions to answer. For
instance: are you married? What is your occupation? How much money do you have?
((Beep))
Room 4. The immigrants who were sick could not enter the country so, first they came here, to the
detention room. It’s like a prison. After that, they returned to their country on a ship. It was a
separation for many families and it was very difficult for them.
((BEEP))
End of the tour. If all the inspections and investigations were ok, then the immigrants transferred to
New York and they were free to work, to live and to become Americans. In just fifty years, from 1880
to 1930, about twelve million immigrants arrived in the USA.
Pronunciation
We visited New York in 2005.
I liked the trip very much.
They wanted to be free in America.
I arrived in Ellis Island in 1902.
I cried when I saw the Statue of Liberty.
My father saved up money for the family.
We stopped at the Empire Stae to admire the views.
We walked around Central Park.
The city looked awesome in the evening.
We all pushed to see the lady.

After more than four decades of relatively little immigration into America after it‘s founding, in the
1830s tens of thousands of immigrants began arriving on her eastern shores. Again, mainly from
Britain, Ireland and Germany. Some were attracted to the cheap farm land that was made available

by westward expansion, while others took advantage of the manufacturing boom in the cities sparked
by the industrial revolution. Before long, millions of immigrants were arriving on America’s shores.
They passed through immigration processing stations like Ellis Island in New York and Angel Island
in San Francisco Bay. This wave was much more diverse than before, coming mainly from southern
Europe it was led by Italians, Poles, Greeks, Swedes, Norwegians, Hungarians, Jews, Lebanese and
Syrians.
Unit 7 A trip to Scotland

Track 38 p. 113 & 114 (Also Track 12 SB)
Jim: Hey, Lisa. Summer’s coming soon and we have to decide about our holiday.
Lisa: You’re right. I’ve got leaflets about Scotland with different tours. Let’s have a look at them.
Jim: Ok, but first tell me what you’d like to do.
Lisa: Well, I’d definitely like to go to a place where I can take lots of nice photos. I want to post a lot of
pictures on Instagram this time, so that all our friends can follow our trip. What about you?
Jim: I’d love to swim in lakes. Even if the water is a bit cold…Run in the forest…I want to feel nature.
Lisa: Ok, ok. But I’d like to visit some cities and towns too. I want to get to know something about
Scottish people and culture too. Not just the animals in the woods!
Jim: Haha…Yeah don’t worry. I’m ok with visiting a couple of cities.
Lisa: Great. So…nature, some sport activities and city life.
Jim: Yep and we’ve got a maximum of seven days to spend. Let’s see which tour has that in the
leaflets…
Track 39 P. 116 (Also Track 13 SB )

This is the weather forecast. Now, let’s see what the weather will be like tomorrow. The south of the
country, near Glasgow and Edinburgh, will have nice weather. It will be sunny and the temperature
will be around seventeen degrees centigrade. In the west and in the midlands, the weather will be dry
but windy, with temperatures around ten degrees centigrade. Hikers - be careful, because there may
be thunderstorms on Ben Nevis. In the east, around Aberdeen, don’t forget your umbrella. It will be
rainy all day tomorrow, I’m afraid, and the maximum temperature will be eight degrees centigrade.
In the north of the country it will be very cold and quite cloudy. The temperature will be around seven
degrees centigrade. There is a chance of some showers and it may be snowy in the Highlands. That’s
the forecast.
Track 40 & 41 P. 119 & 120 (AlsoTrack 14 SB)

Tourist Information: Glasgow tourist information office, what can I do for you?
Naomi: Good morning. I’ll be in Glasgow next week and I’d like to plan my visit.
Tourist Information: Of course. There are many wonderful places to visit in Glasgow. Why don’t you
go tot he Glasgow School of Art and the Kelvingrove Art Gallery. You can also
see…
Naomi: The problem is that if I stay only one day, I won’t have much time to see very
much.
Tourist Information: Ok, so you’ll have to choose carefully.
Naomi: I know, that’s why I need you help. I’d like to visit the lighthouse, the cathedral,
the botanis gardens…maybe more places. But could you tell me the opening
hours?
Tourist Information: Aha…The Botanis Gardens opens at 7am in the morning, so you can start there.
Then, if you go there early and take the subway, you’ll be able to get to the
cathedral at 10. Then you can walkt to the lighthouse because it’s really close.
Naomi: Ok, what about Kelvingrove Art Gallery or the Riverside Museum, how can I get
there? Are they worth visiting?
Tourist Information: Certainly. They’re both great places. Maybe I’d recommend after the cathedral
you take the subway to the Riverside Museum and after that you can take Bus
number 100 to Kelvingrove. That would make a very nice visit. Remember that
Bloggers 1 sixteen 16

most museums close at 5 o’clock. So you’ll have to hurry a little.

Naomi: Great, thank you very much. I’ll follow your recommendations.
Tourist Information: You’re welcome. Don’t forget to visit our website for further information or, if
you have some time on Saturday, come to the tourist infotmation office and we’ll
give you leaflets and everything you might need.
Naomi: Thank you very much for your help. Bye.
Tourist Information: Bye now. Thank you for your call.
Pronunciation
I’m sure you will enjoy yourself on your holiday.
They will send me some photos of their holiday.

When will you come to visit us in Glasgow?
She’ll go shopping in the city centre.
Don’t forget, our flight to Edinburgh will leave from terminal 2, not terminal 1.
They’ll enjoy their visit, I’m sure of that.

My parents keep asking me
„What will you be?“
„A pilot, a farmer, a teacher, maybe?“
I don’t really know, and I think, probably,
I’ll just live on and wait
Until I become me!

Welcome on board our tour bus. On your right is the Glasgow School of Art. This impressive building is
by the famous architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh. If you look, you’ll see the repair and restoration
work that is going on after a major fire in 2014. Now, if you look over to your left ((now)), you’ll see
Glasgow Cathedral, which is one of Scotland’s most magnificent medieval buildings. The cathedral
is open for visitors from 9.30 to 5.30 on Monday to Saturday and on Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm.
Admission is free.
The very impressive building coming up in front of us is the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum,
which has a wonderful collection of Scottish and European paintings. Visitors can admire works by
Rembrandt, Gauguin, Dali and Van Gogh. And you won’t have to pay if you want to visit it, which of
course is something we like in Scotland. And if you walk just behind, you’ll find one of Glasgow’s most
beautiful parks.
