1201 Gem Industry Lesson One p107 p77Gems Standards Press Conference, Speech by Director, De Beers and Central Selling Organization (1)Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,My last visit to China was approximately two years age and I am very happy to be back in this exciting country.One can not help but feel immensely impressed when one sees c the tremendous pace of development here,and I can certainly see great changes in the diamond industry of China.Today marks another major step forward in the diamond world with the launch by the STSB & NGTC of the China Standards, which De Beers are very pleased to endorse.De Beers welcomes such new development and initiatives by trade bodies which help maintain consumer confidence in a unique product, to the benefit of the industry.In the diamond world, China is unusual. You produce some 150,000 carats per annum;prospectors are at work to find new sources; diamond are cut and polished here;there is a diamond jewellery manufacturing business; and finally China has a growing consumer market for diamond jewellery which reflects the staggering growth achieved by your economy.China, therefore, is one of few countries in the world which has a total involvement with the diamond business.But I would like to tell you a little about De Beers. Our company has a central and unique position within the global diamond industry.We were formed over 100 years ago in 1888 and have three specific areas of activity.We mine over 50% by value of the world’s gem diamond and, in fact, operate 18 diamond mines in Southern Africa,namely Southern Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Tanzania, together with ourpartners.We sell these diamonds through the De Beers’Central Selling Organization, whose principle offices are in London,together with diamonds purchased under contract from other major world producers, including Angola, Russia, and Zaire, and we market most of the world’s gem diamond productions.We manage a portfolio of international investments, which provides us with an income (which 1995 amounted to US$ 9.6 billion)with the particular purpose of helping to cushion the effects upon De Beers, and therefore the industry, of economic recession.De Beers, however, has one overriding objective, the maintenance of stability throughout the diamond industry- stability of supply and prices.It is only through stability that confidence for what is, after all, a luxury item can be sustained.We believe that there is no one involved in the diamond industry, who does not benefit from this policy of stability.This is why De Beers formed the Central Selling Organization over 60 years ago, to concentrate the marketing of the world’s rough diamonds through one channel.I now want to talk a little more about De Beers Central Selling Organization, as it does perhaps require some explanation.The Central Selling Organization, or CSO for short, is the umbrella name given to a number of companies within the De Beers group which buy, sort, value and sell uncut or rough diamonds.Our sales in 1995 were over US$ 4.5 billion.The rough gem diamonds are sorted by size, color, and quality into over 5,000 individual classifications.This exacting task is carried out by our 500 highly skilled diamond sorting staff in London backed up by sophisticated machines.Once the diamonds have been classified, they are sold at what we call “Sights”which take place ten times a years when 160 of the world’s leading diamond manufacturers (people who cut and polish diamonds),and dealers come to inspect and purchase the diamonds we have individually prepared for them.Most of the CSO’s clients come from the traditional diamond cutting centers: New York, Tel Aviv, Antwerp, and Mumbai.However, in recent years, there has been a move to polishing in South East Asia.The CSO now has two direct Sight holders in China while we supply another ten Sight holders who have Joint Venture operations in China.For us at De Beers Central Selling Organization we are delighted by this as it confirms China’s position as a member of the community of diamond nations.(to be continued)。

1-1在中国共产党中央委员会的经济工作会议中，中国的旅游业被定为国民经济的新增长点。
这不仅提高了旅游业在经济和社会发展中的地位，同时也为旅游业在下个世纪的发展铺平了道路。
通过检查，评选出了54个旅游城市，这样的评选不仅改善了城市旅游环境，也加快了城市旅游业国际化和现代化的进程。
尽管国际市场的环境并不好，但是我国的旅游业仍然保持持续的增长，海外游客的稳定增长促进了国旅游业的发展。
1998年，旅游业的总收入为3430亿元人民币，比去年增长了10.2%，为实现国民经济预定的增长目标做出了巨大的贡献。
征得国务院的同意，我们引进了关于试建中外合资旅游机构的暂行办法，由于这一办法的颁布，形成了进一步扩大旅游业对外开放的新构架。
这一办法会帮助我们打开吸引游客，从海外旅游业中引进先进的管理经验的渠道，这同样也会给国的旅游业市场带来新的竞争。
Tourism industry was designated as a new economic growth point in the national economy at the conference on economic work held by the central committee of the communist party of China. The move promoted the status of tourist industry sector in the economy and social development, paving the way for the rapid development of tourist industry in the next century.//The top 54 tourist cities were selected throughout the country by examination, the event has not only improved the environment for urban tourist development, but also has speeded up the internationalization and modernization of tourist cities.//Continuous growth was obtained despite the adverse circumstance of the international market. A steady growth in overseas travelers has given an impetus to the domestic tourist industry.//In 1998, the total volume of income from tourism amounted to 343 billion yuan, an increase of 10.2 % over the previous year, contributing greatly to realizing the preset growth target with regard to the national economy.//A Provision Method for Trial Establishment of Sino-Foreign Joint-venture Travel Agency was introduced with the approval of the State Council. A new structure to further expand the opening of tourist industry has emerged thanks to the promulgation of the Method. It will help open new channels for attracting expertise from overseas travel services, which will also bring about a new competitiveness in the domestic travel service market.//1-2. Not long ago, the secretary general of the world tourism organization said, “ the Asia financial crisis has slowed down the development of world tourism, but the Chinese tourism industry has maintained a high growth speed” He predicted that by 2020, china will become the largest tourism country in the world.世界旅游组织秘书长日前认定，金融危机使世界旅游业放慢了增长速度，而中国旅游业却继续保持着强劲增长势头，他预测到2020年，中国将有望成为世界第一旅游大国。
自考英语本科口译与听力考试听力重点篇章
自考英语本科口译与听力考试听力重点篇章12-1-1 Dustbin day robberyGentleman Jim has worked out a plan to rob a bank. He's telling his gang, Fingers Jones and Ginger Robertson about the plan. Listen to their conversation.Fingers: Let's see. You're going to walk up the counter and you're going to start writing a cheque. Then you're going to open the canister of nerve gas, and everyone will go to sleep instantly.Jim: That's right. This gas will put anyone to sleep for exactly three minutes.Fingers: And while everyone is asleep, you're going to go round to the manager's desk and steal all the money? Jim: Exactly. I've worked it out very carefully. There should be about ,50,000 in used bank notes.Ginger: Sounds great. There's only one thing. If you open the gas, you'll go to sleep too, won't you? Jim: I have thought of that. I'll wear a motor-cycle helmet, with an oxygen mask inside. If I wear a helmet, no one will be able to recognize me afterwards, either.Ginger: I think it's risky. If the bank clerk sees you take out agas canister, he won't wait. He'll push the alarm button straight away.Fingers: I've just had an idea. If I came into the bank when you were standing at the counter, no one would even look at me. Then, if I threw the can of nerve gas, they wouldn't guess that we were connected.Ginger: Yes, that might be better. Are you going to wear a helmet, too?Fingers: No. It would look very suspicious if two people were wearing motor cycle helmets. I'll just open the door, throw in the gas canister, and leave Gentleman Jim to rob the bank.Jim: I like that idea. Right, we'll do that. Any other problems that you can see?Ginger: What are you going to do with the money? If you walk out with ,50,000 under your arm, somebody will surelynotice you.Jim: You'll be sitting in a get-away car, waiting for me outsaid the bank.Ginger: But there is a police station just fifty yards away. If I park a car outside the bank, the police would probably come and ask me to move.Fingers: Well, what do you suggest? He can't just walk around the town. He'll be carrying,50,000 in bundles of banknotes.Jim: Just a minute! I've thought of something. What day is this robbery?Fingers: Monday.Jim: Monday! You know what happens on Monday, don't you? It's dustbin day!Ginger: So?Jim: So, can you think of a better way of moving the money? If you saw a man pick up ,50,000 and put it into a car, what would you think?Fingers: I'd think he was a thief.Jim: Exactly. But if you saw a man pick up a dustbin and put it into a lorry, what would you think? Fingers: I'd think he was a dustman. Hey! That's clever!Ginger: And if the ,50,000 was in the dustbin, I could pick up the money and nobody would notice. That's brilliant. Fingers: Is there a dustbin?Jim: Oh yes, several. They put the dustbins out every Monday.They'll be standing there, outside the bank. Fingers: But if you put the money in a dustbin, it'll stink. We'll never be able to spend it if it smells like that. Jim: We don't have to put it in a dustbin. We can put it in a black plastic bag. They often have black plastic bags forrubbishnowadays. If I carry one in my pocket, I can pull it out afteryou've thrown the gas. OK? Let's run through the plan once more.Ginger: You go into the bank with a motor-cycle helmet on, and ablack rubbish bag in your pocket. Fingers: I come in a few minutes later.I open the door, throw in the open gas canister, and then go ... where? Jim: I've hired a room in the building right opposite the bank. Go up in the lift to the top floor and keep a look out. When you get there, radio Ginger, and tell him to come.Ginger: In the meantime, everyone in the bank has gone to sleep, except you. You take the money, and put it in the plastic bag.Jim: I come out, and put the bag with the rubbish, and then go back into the bank.Ginger: Go back?Jim:Oh yes. If everyone woke up and I wasn't there, they'd know I was one of the thieves. No, I'll go back and pretend to wake up with everyone else.Fingers: That's a really clever touch.Ginger: I drive a dustcart and wait in the cul-de-sac behind the bank until Fingers contacts me. Then I come and pick up the rubbish, including the ,50,000.Jim: I can't think of any problems, can you?Task 2: Shop-lifter 12-2-2Man: Excuse me, madam.Woman: Yes?Man: Would you mind letting me take a look in your bag?Woman: I beg your pardon?Man: I'd like to look into your bag, if you don't mind.Woman: Well I'm afraid I certainly do mind, if it's all the same to you. Now go away. Impertinence!Man: I'm afraid I shall have to insist, madam.Woman: And just who are you to insist, may I ask? I advise you to take yourself off, young man, before I call a policeman.Man: I am a policeman, madam. Here's my identity card.Woman: What? Oh ... well ... and just what right does that give youto go around looking into people's bags?Man: None whatsoever, unless I have reason to believe that there's something in the bags belonging to someone else?Woman: What do you mean belonging to someone else?Man: Well, perhaps, things that haven't been paid for?Woman: Are you talking about stolen goods? That's a nice way to talk, I must say. I don't know what things are coming to when perfectly honest citizens get stopped in the street and have their bags examined. A nice state of affairs!Man: Exactly, but if the citizens are honest, they wouldn't mind, would they? So may I look in your bag, madam? We don't want to make a fuss, do we?Woman: Fuss? Who's making a fuss? Stopping people in the street and demanding to see what they've got in their bags. Charming! That's what I call it, charming! Now go away; I've got a train to catch.Man: I'm sorry. I'm trying to do my job as politely as possible butI'm afraid you're making it rather difficult. However, I must insist on seeing what you have in your bag.Woman: And what, precisely, do you expect to find in there? TheCrown Jewels?Man: No need to be sarcastic, Madam. I thought I'd made myself plain. If there's nothing in there which doesn't belong to you, you can gostraight off and catch your train and I'll apologize for the inconvenience.Women: Oh, very well. Anything to help the police.Man: Thank you, madam.Woman: Not at all, only too happy to cooperate. There you are.Man: Thank you，Mm. Six lipsticks?Woman: Yes, nothing unusual in that. I like to change the colourwith my mood.Man: And five powder-compacts?Woman: I use a lot of powder. I don't want to embarrass you, but I sweat a lot. (Laughs)Man: And ten men's watches?Woman: Er, yes. I get very nervous if I don't know the time. Anxiety, you know. We all suffer from it in this day and age.Man: I see you smoke a lot, too, madam. Fifteen cigarette lighters?Woman: Yes, I am rather a heavy smoker. And ... and I use them for finding my way in the dark and ... and for finding the keyhole late at night. And ... and I happen to collect lighters. It's my hobby. I have a superb collection at home.Man: I bet you do, madam. Well, I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to come along with me.Woman: How dare you! I don't go out with strange men. And anyway Itold you I have a train to catch.Man: I'm afraid you won't be catching it today, madam. Now are you going to come along quietly or am I going to have to call for help?Woman: But this is outrageous! (Start fade)-2-1 What do you like about your job? 13First speaker: I'm a night person. I love the hours, you know? Ilike going to work at around six at night and then getting home at twoor three in the morning. I like being out around people, you know,talking to them, listening to their problems. Some of my regulars are always on the lookout for ways that they can stump me. Like last week, one of them came in and asked for a Ramos gin fizz. He didn't think I knew how to make it. Hah! But I know how to make every drink in the book, and then some. Although some of the nights when I go in I just don'tfeel like dealing with all the noise. When I get in a big crowd it canbe pretty noisy. People talking, the sound system blaring, the pinball machine, the video games. And then at the end of the night you don't always smell so good, either. You smell like cigarettes. But I like the place and I plan on sticking around for a while.Second speaker: If I had to sit behind a desk all day, I'd go crazy! I'm really glad I have a job where I can keep moving, you know? My favourite part is picking out the music—I use new music for every ten-week session. For my last class I alwaysuse the Beatles—it's a great beat to move to, and everybody loves them. I like to sort of educate people about their bodies, and show them, you know, how to do the exercises and movements safely. Like, it justkills me when I see people trying to do situps with straight legs—it' so bad for your back! And ... let's see ... I—I like to see people make progress—at the end ofa session you can really see how people have slimmed down and sortof built up some muscle—it's very gratifying.The part I don't like is, well, it's hard to keep coming up with new ideas for classes. I mean, you know, there are just so many ways you can move your body, and it's hard to keep coming up with interesting routines and ... and new exercises. And it's hard on my voice—I have to yell all the time so people can hear me above the music, and like after three classes in one day my voice has had it. Then again, having three classes in one day has its compensations—I can eat just about anything I want and not gain any weight!Third speaker: What do I like about my job? Money. M-O-N-E-Y. No, I like the creativity, and I like my studio. All my tools are like toys to me—you know, my watercolours , pen and inks, coloured pencils, drafting table—I love playing withthem. and I have lots of different kinds of clients—I do magazines, book covers, album covers, newspaper articles—sothere's lots of variety, which I like. You know, sometimes when I start working on a project I could be doing it for hours and have no conception of how much time has gone by—what some people call a flow experience. I don't like the pressure,though, and there's plenty of it in this business. You're always working against a tight deadline. And I don't like the business end of it—you know, contacting clients for work, negotiating contracts, which get long and complicated.Fourth speaker: Well, I'll tell you. At first it was fun, because there was so much to learn, and working with figures and money was interesting. But after about two years the thrill was gone, and now it's very routine. I keep the books, do the payroll, pay the taxes, pay the insurance, pay the bills. I hate paying the bills, because there's never enough money to pay them! I also don't like the pressure of having to remember when all the bills and taxes are due. And my job requires a lot of reading that I don't particularly enjoy. I can have to keep up to date on all the latest tax forms, and it's pretty dull. I like it when we're making money, though, because I get to see all of my efforts rewarded.13-2-2 What do you think of yourself?TV Interviewer: In this week's edition of 'Up with People' we went out into the streets and asked a number of people a question they just didn't expect. We asked them to be self-critical ... to ask themselves exactly what they thought they lacked or—the other side of the coin—what virtues they had. Here is what we heard.Jane Smith: Well ... I ... I don't know really ... it's not the sort of question you ask yourself directly. I know I'm good at myjob ... at least my boss calls me hard-working, conscientious, efficient. I'm a secretary by the way. As for when I look at myself in a mirror as it were ... you know ... you sometimes do in the privacy of your own bedroom ... or at your reflection in the ... in the shop windows as you walk up the street ... Well ... then I see someone a bit different. Yes ... I'm different inmy private life. And that's probably my main fault I should say ...I'm not exactly—oh how shall I say? —I suppose I'm, not coherent in my behaviour. My office is always in order...but my flat! Well...you'd have to see it to believe it.Chris Bonner: I think the question is irrelevant. You shouldn't be asking what I think of myself ... but what I think of the state of this country. And this country is in a terrible mess. There's only one hopefor it—the National Front. It's law andorder that we need. I say get rid of these thugs who call themselves Socialist Workers ... get rid of them I say. So don't ask about me. I'm the sort of ordinary decent person who wants to bring law and order back to this country. And if we can't do it by peaceful means then ...Tommy Finch: Think of myself? Well I'm an easy-going bloke really ... unless of course you wind me up. Then I'm a bit vicious. You know. I mean you have to live for yourself don't you. And think of your mates. That's what makes a bloke. I ain't got much sympathy like with themwhat's always thinking of causes ... civil rights and all that. Imean ... this is a freecountry inning?

I was very unhappy ... especially when I was sent to boarding-school at seven. I didn't make close friends till ... till quite late in life ... till I was about ... what ... fifteen. Then Ibecame quite good at being by myself. I had no one to rely on ... and no one to ask for advice. That made me independent ... and I've always solved my problems myself. My wife and I have two sons. We ... we didn't want an only child because I felt ... well I felt I'd missed alot of things.15-1-2Task 2:A new way of lifeAnnouncer: On 'TV Magazine' tonight we're looking at people who have given up regular jobs and high salaries to start a new way of life.First of all, we have two interviews with people who decided to leavethe 'rat race'. Nicola Burgess spoke to them.Nicola: This is the Isle of Skye. Behind me you can see the croft belonging to Daniel and Michelle Burns, who gave up their jobs to cometo this remote area of Scotland. Daniel was the sales manager of Hi-Vita, the breakfast cereal company, and Michelle was a successful advertising executive. Michelle, can you tell us what made you give up everything to come here?Michelle: Everything? That's a matter of opinion. A big house andtwo cars isn't everything! Dan and I both used to work long hours. Wehad to leave so early in the morning and we came home so late at night, that we hardly ever saw each other. We should have come here years ago, but we were earning such big salaries that we were afraid to leave our jobs. In the end we had so little time together that our marriage was breaking up. So two years ago, we took a week's holiday in the Scottish Highlands. We saw this place and we both fell in love with it. It wasfor sale, and we liked it so much that we decided to give up our jobs, and here we are!Nicola: How do you earn a living? If you don't mind me asking.Michelle: We don't need very much. We keep sheep and goats, grow our own vegetables. We've got a few chickens. It's a very simple life, and we're not in it for profit. We're still so busy that we work from fivein the morning until eight at night,but we're together. We're happier than we're ever been and we're leading a natural life.Nicola: There must be some things you miss, surely.Michelle: I don't know. We knew such a lot of people in London, but they weren't real friends. We see our neighbours occasionally andthere's such a lot to do on the farm that we don't have time to feel lonely. At least we see each other now.Nicola: The motor-bike I'm sitting on is a very special one. Special because it's been all the way round the world. It belongs to Luke Saunders, who has just returned to England after a three year motor-cycle journey. Luke, what led you to leave your job and make this trip?Luke: I worked in a car factory on the assembly line. All I had todo was put four nuts on the bolts that hold the wheels on. It's done by robots now, and a good thing too! The job was so routine that I didn't have to think at all. I bought this Triumph750 cc bike second-hand, fitted two panniers on the back and justset off for Australia.Nicola: What did you do for money?Luke: I had a bit of money to start with, but of course it didn'tlast long and I had to find work where I could. I've done so picked fruit, washed up, worked as a mechanic. many different things—Nicola: How did people react to you? In India, for example.Luke: Everywhere I went, the people were so friendly that problems seemed to solve themselves. There was such a lot of interest in the bike that it was easy to start a conversation. You know, often you can communicate without really knowing the language.Nicola: Did you ever feel like giving up, turning round and coming home?Luke: Only once, in Bangladesh. I became so ill with food poisoning that I had to go to hospital. But it didn't last long. Nicola: You've had such an exciting time that you'll find it difficult to settle down, won't you?Luke: I'm not going to. Next week I'm off again, but this time I'm going in the opposite direction! See you in about three years' time!15-2-2CheeseCheese is one of those foods that we tend to take for granted as always having been with us, and it's odd to think that someone somewhere must have discovered the process that takes place when micro-organisms get into milk and bring about changes in its physical and biochemical structure.Obviously, we don't know who discovered the process, but it'sthought that it came from South-West Asia about 8,000 years ago.Early cheese was probably rather unpalatable stuff, tasteless and bland in the case of the so-called 'fresh cheeses', which are eaten immediately after the milk has coagulated, and rough tasting and saltyin the case of the 'ripened' cheeses, which are made by adding salt to the soft fresh cheese and allowing other biochemical processes to continue so that a stronger taste and a more solid texture result.The ancient Romans changed all that. They were great pioneers in the art of cheese-making, and the different varieties of cheese theyinvented and the techniques for producing them spread with them to the countries they invaded. This dissemination of new techniques took place between about 60 BC and 300 AD. You can still trace their influence in the English word 'cheese', which comes ultimately from the Latin word'caseus', that's C-A-S-E-U-S.Well, things went on quietly enough after the Roman period with the cheese producers in the different countries getting on with developing their own specialities. It's amazing the variety of flavours you can get from essentially the same process.At this stage in history, people weren't aware in a scientific wayof the role of different micro-organisms and enzymes in producing different types of cheese. But they knew from experience that if youkept your milk or your 'pre-cheese' mixture at a certain temperature orin a certain environment, things would turn out in a certain way. The Roquefort caves in France are an example of a place that was used for centuries for the ripening of a certain sort of cheese, before people knew exactly why they produced the effect they did.In the nineteenth century, with the increasing knowledge aboutmicro-organisms, there came the next great step forward in cheese-making.Once it was known exactly which micro-organisms were involved in the different stages of producing a cheese, and how the presence ofdifferent micro-organisms affected the taste, it was possible to introduce them deliberately, and to industrialize the process.Cheese started being made on a large scale in factories, althoughthe small producer working from his farm dairy continued to exist and still exist today. Cheese-making moved very much into the world of technology and industrial processes, although, because the aim is still to produce something that people like to eat, there's still an important role forhuman judgement. People still go round tasting the young cheese at different stages to see how it's getting on, and may add a bit of this or that to improve the final taste. Whatever the scale of production, there is still room for art alongside the technology.16-1-1 Men and women:BBC interviewer: It's probably true to say that women have been affected more than men by recent changes in the way we actually live. Over a hundred years ago people began to question whether men werereally so much wiser, stronger, altogether more sensible and simply better than women as the laws of the country made out. In the end women got the vote, and very recently—in 1975—the Sex Discrimination Act was passed.But it's doubtful whether legislation has changed the way we women actually think. A lot is heard about the dilemma of women's two roles. How can a woman be a wife and mother and have a full-time job as well?In this new series we are going to try to find out what people are really thinking and feeling about this problem, and how it affects their personal lives. In the studio with me today is Mrs. Marina Spiden, who recently experienced the problem of having too much to do at home. With Mrs. Spiden are her husband Brian, her mother Mrs. Vera Cresswell and Mr. Tom Penman, their local newsagent. Mrs. Spiden ... tell us what happened will you?Mrs. Spiden: Well ... you just said it ... the problem of having too much to do at home. I do an afternoon job so I have to get the housework and shopping ... er ... done in the morning. And one morning you see ... er ... I just couldn't stand it no more.The ... the baby was bawling her head off. Jimmy—that's my littleboy ... he's two—had thrown the radio out of thewindow ...Interviewer: Really!Mrs. Spiden: Yes really ... The dog ... you know ... had made a ...a mess on the carpet. And there was Brian—myhusband—there he was snoring a way on the settee. Didn't lift afinger he didn't ... not a finger to help me. Mr. Spiden: Now nowlove ... Don't get all her up about it again ... I mean that's your side of the story ... Interviewer: Of course Mr. Spiden ... We'd like to hearyour side later. So ... what did you do about it? Mrs. Spiden: Well ... What do you do when you've got something you're fed up with or ... or ... you don't want like ... You put them up for sale don't you? And that's exactly what I did do. Put the whole damn lot of 'em up for sale. Interviewer: The family you mean.Mrs. Spiden: Yes ... the family ... including the dog.Mr. Penman: She came into my shop that very day and 'Tom', she says, 'I've just about had enough of it. I'm sick of slaving for a husbandwhat sleeps all day. So here you are,' she says. And she gives me an advert on a card to put up in the window of the paper shop.Interviewer: What did it say?Mr. Penman: I've got it here.Interviewer: Read it for us will you?Mr. Penman: 'For Sale—One house-trained dog, one reasonably trained boy of two years, one baby girl of two weeks and one man that needs training. Any offers considered. Apply within.'Interviewer: And were there any offers?Mrs Cresswell: It was me what wrote that advert. You see ... I live with Marina and Brian ...Mr Spiden: She and her dog ...Mr. Penman: Oh yes. Caused quite a stir it did. I should say I had inquiries from ... from about a couple of dozen housewives in all.Interviewer: And what offers did they make?Mr. Penman: Well one woman offered 25p. She said that's all a man was worth.Interviewer: What about you Mr. Spiden? What was your reaction to the advertisement?Mr. Spiden: Well ... you can imagine ... My wife told me about it but I thought she was joking. Little did I realize ... I was bloody furious when I saw it there. It wasn't till next morning. We live upstairs of the paper shop and when I come down to go on my milkround ...Interviewer: Yes of course ... you're a milkman ...Mrs. Spiden: That's right. I often have a dekko at the adverts Tom puts up. And when I saw that one sort of ... staring me in the face ...I nearly blew me top.Interviewer: What did you do?Mrs. Cresswell: I'll tell you what he did. He came and blamed me for everything.Mr. Spiden: Well it was you ... wannit ... that egged her on. It was you that wrote the advert.Mr. Penman: It was a big joke really. Just that Brian took it all the wrong way. Know what he did? When he come off his milk round he barges into the shop and he says, 'Take that bloody advert out and put one in for me. Ask some kind taxi-driver or someone to come and take my mother-in-law back to Birmingham.'Mr. Spiden: But it's all blown over now ... innit. It's done us a world of good in a way. We're the best of friends again. Even the dog started to ...17-1-1 Task 1: News in briefHere is a summary of the news.Shots are fired in a south London street by escaping bank robbers.Four rock fans die in a stampede at a concert Chicago.And how an Air France Concorde was involved in the closest recorded miss in aviation history?Shots were fired this morning in the course of an 80 m.p.h. chase along Brixton High Road in London. A police constable was injured by flying glass when a bullet shattered his windscreen as he was pursuing a car containing four men who had earlier raided a branch of Barclays Bank at Stockwell. Police Constable Robert Cranley had been patrolling near the bank when the alarm was given. The raiders made their getaway in a stolen Jaguar which was later found abandoned in Croydon. Officials of the bank later announced that ,16,000 had been stolen.Four people were killed and more than fifty injured when fans rushed to get into a stadium in Chicago yesterday where the British pop group Fantasy were giving a concert. The incident occurred when gates were opened to admit a huge crowd of young people waiting outside the stadium for the sale of unreserved seat tickets. People were knocked over in the rush and trampled underfoot as the crowd surged forward. The concert later went ahead as planned with Fantasy unaware of what had happened. A。
