Listening Text:

Good morning and welcome to the Language School at Dublin University. I’m very happy to greet you all to our Summer programme and hope that you will not only learn a lot more English, but also learn about the Irish way of life. Before you go to your classrooms, I want to have a quick look at your weekly timetable with you. Classes are taught from Monday to Friday with four classes in the morning and three classes in the afternoons. One lesson takes up 50 minutes. We start every morning with two lessons of what we call Language Study, which will mostly be grammar and vocabulary. The rest of the morning classes are either spent in the computer lab, or in workshops. There’s a conversation Workshop to practise your speaking skills, one lesson on Tuesday, directly after the Languate Study class and there is a Reading Workshop of two times fifty minutes on Friday morning. There are also two fifty minutes classes in the computer lab which form the third class on both Wednesday and Thursdays.

Lunch is from half past twelve till one o’clock. Each afternoon, except for Wednesday, starts with two lessons of skill practice. In those classes you will mostly practise listening and speaking. On Monday and Tuesday they are followed by a class of fifty minutes at the language lab.

The language lab is open Monday to Friday from half past eight in the morning until eight o’clock in the evening, while the library is open every day, including the weekends, from eight am till ten pm.

Language Study and classes in the computer lab are taught by Dave. Conversation and skills are taught by Flora and Sarah. Reading is taught by Andrew and the teacher who will be with you in the language lab is Julia. If for some reason you cannot come to class, you have to phone your teacher half an hour before class begins.

2. What do Welsh farmers use dogs for?

To move their sheep from one field to another.

3. Why does it rain a lot in Wales?

Because the wind usually comes from the sea, and when it hits the mountains it starts raining.

3. Listening Text:

Wales is one of the four countries that form the United Kingdom. The Act of Union in 1536 combined west and east Wales into a single state, Wales was considered by the English and later Great Britain and the United Kingdom government as a separate pat of England and Cardiff was named in 1955 as its capital, Since then we speak of “England and Wales” where before only “England” was used.

Travelling from England, you will know when you are in Wales, because all street signs and names of railway stations are written in two languages: English and Wales. Welsh is the original language of the people in Wales. The landscape in Wales is also different from England. While England is mostly hilly, the central parts of Wales are mountainous. It is here that we find the highest mountain in the UK. As it is impossible to grow crops on the mountains, Welsh farmers keep sheep instead. It is difficult to get around the steep mountain slopes, even in a jeep. So the Welsh sheep farmers use dogs to move the sheep from one field to another.

The weather in Wales is warmer and wetter than in other parts of Britain. This is because of the high mountains. The wind here usually comes from the southwest. As it moves across the warm Atlantic Ocean, the wind carries water from the sea. When this wind hits the mountains of Wales, the air rises causing rain to fall.

Wales is popular with holiday visitors. They go hiking in the mountains, or spend their summer days by the sea, swimming or sailing. people interested in history and architecture can visit some of the many historical sites in Wales. Most ancient castles and churches are open to the public. During the holidays, there are festivals too, with singing and dancing. Wales is often called “the Land of song” and its people are famous for their love of poetry and music.
