Bottle Banks
In Britain more and more people are becoming
concerned about the environment. One of the results
is an increase in the number of bottle banks placed
around the country. Glass can be recycled, and
everyone is asked
to do their part and
throw bottles and
other glass into
these containers to
help in saving raw
materials.

A National Park
This national park, which covers 260 km2, includes
various forms of scenery which make it an excellent
area for touting. The moors, in particular, offer many
interesting possibilities to tourists who like walking.
For less active people there is a steam railway which
covers the 29 km from Grosmont in Eksdale across
Goathland Moor to Newtondale. The area was made
famous in the books and television series by James
Herriot, the veterinary surgeon.
Wh at is this area in Yorkshire called?

A Cold
Pete is lying in bed with a cold, feeling miserable. He
has taken a lot of medicine, none of which has done
much good. He asks his
wife Sue to make him a
hot toddy, but she doesn't
think that it is a good idea
to take alcohol on top of
all the medicine. Pete
agrees rather reluctantly
and feels even more
miserable.

A Dent in the Car
Bill: This morning on the way to the office, some-
one drove into my car when I was stopped at
the traffic-lights.
Eric: It's always a nui-
sance when some-
thing like that
happens. No one
was hurt I hope.
Bill: No. But I imagine
the repair ofmy
car will cost the
other driver quite
a lot ofmoney.

A Birthday Party
Tom: I suppose your grandmother will be having a
Lyn: big party for her 80th birthday.
My mother said
Tom: that she has invited
Lyn: all our relations.
I haven't seen some
ofthem in years.
What do you think
we can give her as
a present?
I don't know yet.
Can you think of
anything?
A Prize for Literature
This prize is awarded annually for the best full-length
novel published in the previous twelve months. It is
financed by a multinational company which gives it
its name. The prize was founded in 1969, and its aim
is to stimulate public interest in novels. Even being
accepted in the so-called short-list, the final stage with
just six book titles, is a great honour for the authors.
Among the previous prizewinners are V. S. Naipaul
(1971), Iris Murdoch (1978) and Kingsley Amis (1986).
What is the name ofthis prize?

Buying Shares
Tom has inherited some money from an uncle.
He makes an appointment at his bank so that he can
obtain some advice on
investing the money. He
would like to buy some
shares, but he is not very
sure which ones will give
him the best return. At the
bank they advise him to
invest half of his money in
bonds. With the other half
he buys several shares
which pay a good dividend.

Tom: Moving House
Lyn:
What time is the removal van coming?
Tom: They said they would be here at eight o'clock,
but it's already
ten past.
I assume they
have the right
address. Not that
they are at our
new address, ex-
pecting to pick
up furniture to
bring it here.

A London Building
This assemblage of buildings on the north bank of
the Thames was originally a fortress and palace until
the reign of James I. It later became a state prison and
also housed an observatory until the building of the
Greenwich Observatory in 1675. It was even a zoo and
menagerie until 1834. Today it is used as a repository
of ancient armour and weapons. The Crown Jewels,
the largest collection of precious stones, are also kept
here.

Getting Lost
Tom and Lyn go for a walk to explore their new
neighbourhood. After they have walked for an hour
or so, they realize that
they are lost. Tom stops
the next person they pass
to ask where they are.
The man is very helpful
and offers to walk with
them to the next main
road from·where they
can find their way
home.

A Town
This town in the southeast of England became a pop-
ular tourist resort in the middle of the 18th century.
Until then it had only been a small fishing village.
The Palace Pier, built in 1899, attracts many thou-
sands of tourists. George, Prince of Wales, had the
'Royal Pavilion' built in 1822. The architect used
moguls' palaces in India as a pattern, and with its
Chinese interior it is probably the most exotic palace
in Europe.
What is the name ofthis town ?

some flea powder
as well.

Skiing
Sue and Pete read in the paper that new snow had
fallen in Scotland. Since they both enjoy skiing, they
decided to drive up to
Aviemore for the week-
end. A lot of people ob-
viously had the same idea
as they had difficulty
booking a hotel in the
area. The queues at the
ski lift were also rather
long, but the run down
the hill was worth it.

A Book Title
This science fiction fantasy was written by H. G.
Wells in 1898. It describes the landing of Martians,
who had to leave their planet, on earth. They are
intelligent, destructive creatures with a huge brain.
Before they fall victim to bacteria, they devastate
most of the country. When the book was broadcast
on radio by Orson Welles in America in 1938, it
caused a panic. Many listeners thought it was a
factual account of a Martian invasion.
What is the title ofthis book ?

Pete's Birthday
Today is Pete's birthday, and his wife gets out of bed
earlier than usual to prepare ~reakfast. Pete is rather
surprised to find his breakfast on the table next to
his bed, when he opens
his eyes. He is even more
pleased, when he unwraps
the present Sue has
bought for him. It is a
new watch which he has
wanted for a long time.

Sue: I didn't know that you had.invited so many
friends from the office to the party.

In the Clubhouse
The clubhouse on a golf course is quite often jok-
ingly referred to as the 19th hole. There are 18 holes
on a golf course, and
when you have played all
of those, you can quench
your thirst at the bar in
the clubhouse. There will
probably be several other
golfers who will tell you
how they just missed
getting a hole in one.

A Seaside Resort
This seaside resort south of London boasts a fiye kilo-
metre long beach. Every schoolchild in Britain 'knows
the famous battle which took place here in 1066,
when the Normans changed the course of British
history. In the fisherman's quarter of the town there
are many picturesque small alleyways and Tudor-
style houses. Close to this area of the town is the
Shipwreck Heritage Centre which narrates the history
of shipwrecks on the Sussex coast.
What is the name ofthis town?

Friends
Lyn has invited a few girlfriends round for the
evening. As Tom doesn't feel like being the only
man there, he phones
up one of his friends and
arranges to meet him in
the local pub for a game
of darts and a few beers.
When Tom comes home,
most of Lyn's friends
have already left.

Pete: A New Passport
Sue:

Pete: You better get the application form for the new
one as soon as
possible. I heard
that there are
long delays.
I know. Since
everything has to
go to a main
office now it
takes four times

The British School System
In Britain children start
school at the age of five.
They are at school for the
whole day with a lunch-time
break. The children at-
tend primary school till
they are 11. Most children,
aged from 11 to 16, attend
comprehensive schools.
If pupils want to stay on
for A-levels, they remain
at school till they are 18.

A London Bridge
Along with Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament
this bridge is one of London's most famous land-
marks. Of the eighteen road bridges in London this
one, built 1886-1894, is nearest the mouth of the river
Thames. The middle section consists of two draw-
bridges which can be raised to allow large ships to
pass. However, since the docks have been moved,
they are seldom used.
What is this famous landmark called?

A British Symbol
This sitting woman is regarded as the personification
of Great Britain. She is, for example, represented on
the 50 pence coin as wearing a helmet and carrying a
shield and trident. The yacht belonging to the Royal
Family also bears the name of the woman we are
looking for. Bearing in mind that a patriotic song
written in 1840 also includes her name,
it should not be too difficult to guess who she is.

In the Library
Lyn has realized that books which she had borrowed
from the public library are long overdue. Usually the
library sends a postcard
reminding her that the
books have to be returned,
but they seem to have
overlooked it this time.
Lyn adds up the fines
she will have to pay and
decides to take the books
back that very day, before
she has to pay even more
money.
38
An English Author
The author we are looking for was a professor of
English language and literature at Oxford university.
He published a number of philological and critical
studies such as "Beowulf: the Monsters and the
Critics". He became internationally famous for his
two books based on a mythology which he created
himself: "The Hobbit" (1937) and "Lord of the Rings"
(three volumes, 1954- 55). Another book, "The
Silmarillion'', was published in 1977 after his death.
What is the name ofthis author?

Carnival
Carnival, as it is celebrated
in Germany or Brazil, is
unknown in Britain. Tele-
vision coverage has brought
the celebration into the
British home, but most
British people just regard
the whole thing as some-
thing "foreign". It's just
"not British" to dress up
and dance around the
streets.

Sue: Carnival
Pete:
I would like to go to Rio sometime to see the
Sue: carnival there.
I'm sure it would
be interesting to
see all those
dancers and the
carnival floats.
Well, since the
trip is too expen-
sive we willjust
have to watch it
on telly instead.

A Department Store
The history of this store began in 1849 when a tea
merchant took over a small grocer's shop in the
village of Knightsbridge. By 1870 he was employing
16 people, and by 1874 the number had increased to
almost one hundred. In 1898, the first escalator in
London was installed. An assistant stood at the top
with brandy for nervous passengers. Today the store
is famous for being able to supply everything to
everyone everywhere.
What is the name ofthis famous London store?

A Bank Loan
Pete would like to buy a new car, but he does not
have enough money in his bank account. He decides
to apply for a loan even though interest rates are
rather high at the moment. After a discussion with
the bank manager
he is given the "
necessary amount.
He has to repay
the loan over three
years so he hopes
that he does not
need a new car
before then.

A Cold Frame
Sue: When areyou going to build that coldframe
in the garden? We have to think about plant-
ing some vegeta-
bles under glass
next month.
Pete: I've got enough
wood lying
around in the ga-
rage, but I never
seem to get
enough timefor
all these littlejobs
around the garden.
44
New Furniture
Pete and Sue have had several catalogues sent so that
they can look at new furniture for the living room.
They need a new settee
as the one they have at
present is liable to fall
apart soon. When they
see all the nice furniture
in the photos they decide
to throw the armchairs
out as well and buy a
whole new suite.
