Lingling: Is this your first time in Beijing, Richard
Richard: Yes, it is.
Lingling: How do you find it
Richard: It's totally fascinating. It's so different from Sydney, where I live. Lingling: Now I'm fascinated. Tell me about the differences, as you see them. Richard: Well, Sydney's a younger city than Beijing. Beijing has a lot more inhabitants and is much more crowded.
Lingling: Yes, we certainly have a huge population, like most Chinese cities. Richard: It's very exciting, as a result. And there's so much construction going on.
Lingling: I know, we're growing very fast. For example, I don't think we have as many freeways as Sydney does, but we soon will!
Richard: I believe you! I think there are fewer tourists in Beijing—at least for now. And I get the feeling that Beijing's less dangerous.
Lingling: Yes, there's probably a lot less crime here.
Richard: What about the climate I think Sydney has less rain.
Lingling: Yes, we can get a lot of rain in July and August.
Richard: I've noticed! It's pouring at the moment!
Lingling: The good thing about the rain, of course, is that it washes the pollution away.
Richard: I've noticed that too. We don't have as much pollution as you do. Lingling: That's because you have less industry. The air can get quite polluted here...Ok, so that covers a lot of the differences. But are there any similarities Richard: Oh yes...for example, I notice the wealth and the energy.
Lingling: Sorry, I didn't get that.
Richard: The wealth and energy. I think there are as many rich people here as in Sydney... and I think your city is just as lively as mine.
Lingling: That's good to hear. So shall we go out this evening and find some of the action

Reporter: I'm standing in the centre of Plymouth, the capital of Montserrat, where just one week ago, a volcanic eruption took place. With me is Frank Savage, the governor of the island. Mr Savage, thank you for talking to us.
Savage: You're welcome.
Reporter: What exactly happened last week
Savage: Well, the volcano erupted, and ash and lava poured down the mountain towards the , there are several villages in its path.
Reporter: That's terrible. Was anybody hurt
Savage: No. Luckily, we had plenty of warning and I told people who lived in the path of the ash and lava to leave the island. We managed to get half the population to another island before the eruption took place.
Reporter: Why are you still here
Savage: Well, I'm still working because there's a lot to do.
Reporter: How many people live on the island
Savage: Eleven thousand people live here and about six thousand people have left. Reporter: Which areas are the most dangerous
Savage: Well, the most dangerous places are between the volcano and the sea. There are a lot of villages there. And it was very dangerous. Sadly, hundreds of houses caught fire when the lava reached them.
Reporter: Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that.
Savage: Thankfully, no one was killed.
Reporter: Are the houses still on fire
Savage: No. Fortunately, we put all the fires out quite quickly.
Reporter: That's very good news. Well, it's a beautiful sunny day here in Plymouth. Does this mean that the danger is over
Savage: No! The volcano could erupt again! People must understand that it is still very dangerous and they can't go back to their houses.
Reporter: OK—so that's the message from the governor —don't go back to your houses. When
will people be able to return home
Savage: We don't know at the moment. Hopefully, it won't be too long. Reporter: Thank you for your time, Mr Savage.
Savage: Thank you.

(int=interviewer)
Int: David, what do you see as the main problems with the environment
: Well, in a nutshell, the most urgent problem of all is the climate. The world's climate seemsto be getting warmer.
Int: We've seen a lot of evidence of that, haven't we Hotter summers, warmer winters, that kind of thing.
: Yes, we have. Also, scientists have found that the ice at the Poles is beginning to melt.
Int: We've heard that too. Is that really happening
: Yes, I'm afraid it is. And at sometime in the future, the ice may melt completely. Then it's Possible that the sea could rise and coastal cities like New York and Shanghai could disappear under water.
Int: It sounds very frightening.
: I couldn't agree with you more. It's scary!
Int: Can you explain why the climate's getting warmer
: Well, I'll do my best! It's pollution that's the problem. Gases from cars enter the atmosphere and stop the sun's heat from leaving the atmosphere. And factories give out chemicals that do the same thing. So as a result, the climate is getting warmer.
Int: From what I understand, carbon dioxide from cars is a major problem.
: You're absolutely right. Carbon dioxide is the gas that does most damage to the atmosphere. But we have a problem with trees too. You see, trees give out oxygen and take in carbon dioxide. So they're very useful because they use up the carbon dioxide.
Int: I know what you're going to say. We're cutting down all the trees.
: Yes, we cut them down because we need the land and because we use the wood for paper and furniture. That leaves more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Int: It's a terrible situation.
: Yes, and another problem is all the garbage that we produce. We burn a lot of garbage, and once again, the gases pollute the atmosphere. The situation couldn't be worse, really.
Int: We should recycle garbage, not burn it.
: Of course we should.
Int: It's strange, we know all this, and yet we do nothing but talk about it. I can't help but feel very concerned.
: Yes, well, it is worrying. But governments are beginning to do something about it. I don't think it's too late.

China has given the world many important inventions. To give an example, it is the country in which silk was first invented. Silk was made there as long ago as 3200 BC. Chinese farmers grew mulberry leaves because they knew that a certain kind of caterpillar ate them. The Chinese did not tell other countries how silk was made and other countries how silk was made and other countries paid a lot for this soft, strong material.
Su Song was an eleventh century monk about whom very little is know. However, we do know that in 1092 AD he invented the first real clock. For the first time ever,
it became possible to tell the time. In the 1950s a copy was built and this copy can be seen today in Beijing.
They say that a man called Cai Lun made paper from the bark of a tree in about 105 AD. If so, he is a man of whom China can be proud. Paper was a very important invention because it was cheap and people could afford to buy it. Before that time, writers had used expensive materials such as silk. The invention was immediately successful. However, paper did not spread to other countries for another 500 years.
Printing was invented in China as early as 868 AD. The book in which printing first appeared was called The Diamond Sutra. With printing, it became possible t produce many copies at the same time. In 1041 AD, a chemist called Bi Sheng invented a type of print that could move. It was not until 1454 that the first book was printed in Europe.
The first time that we hear of a real toothbrush is in a Chinese book of 1498 AD. This toothbrush could clean teeth quickly and well. The toothbrush only reached Europe in the seventeenth century, when it quickly became very popular.
