As long as the majority wants it, these Games will continue.B.Aociation football, also known as soccer, is an 11-a-side team game played on a gra field.At each end of the field is a goal net.The object is to move the ball around the field, with the feet or head, until a player is in a position to put the ball into the net and score a goal.The goalkeeper defends the goal, and he is the only person allowed to touch the ball with his hands while it is in play.The ancient Greeks, Chinese, Egyptians and Romans all played a form of football.In the early 19th century it became an organized game in Britain, and was played in most universities and public schools.In 1863 the Football Aociation was formed.The first FA Cup final was played in 1872.The first World Cup was organized in Uruguay in 1930.The European Governing body, the Union of European Football Aociations(UEFA), was formed in 1954, and it controls the major European club competitions.1.Translation 1.He is the manager’s son, but that alone does not qualify him to criticize out work.2.Mr.Smith took up photography as a hobby after he retired from teaching.2.By comparison, this house has the advantage of low price and that house has the advantage of convenient transportation.4.It seems that he is making every effort to promote the sale of this new product.5.The eager students crowded into the lecture hall to hear the famous profeor from Cambridge University.6.She, like thousands of others, is greatly fascinated by this work of art.7.It was not until I got married that I could afford to buy a house of my own.B.The transport problem in Lavenport has been growing because in this cosmopolitan city there are too many people but there is not enough space.The population has been increasing very quickly in recent years and now Lavenport has become very crowded.Hardly any city / Very few cities in the world is / are as crowded as Lavenport.Since 1851 the people in this port city have been reclaiming land from the sea and today it is difficult to imagine what the original shoreline looked like.But over the years, reclamation schemes have been growing more and more expensive and today there is hardly any place left where reclamation is poible.The harbour is one of the busiest in the world.Each day about five million paengers make use of some kind of public transport or other in Lavenport.Unit 2
Dictation A:
The motion picture is a highly complex art form which combines many other arts.The filmmaker is a writer using language, a musician using music.He is a painter concerned with composition, light, and color.He is a sculptor mounding forms in space, a choreographer shaping human movement.With the camera as the major tool, the filmmaker recreates the external world.Using the camera and putting pieces of film together or separating them in the editing proce, the filmmaker powerfully controls time and space.A gunfight can become a ballet in slow motion.The act of climbing a short flight of stairs can be extended to seem like an endle journey, and an airplane can be made to cro continents in seconds.In the theatrical film, the filmmaker uses these and many other artistic techniques to tell a story.Not all films are made to tell stories or to be shown in theatres.Filmmakers can also use their craft for other purposes than to create a work of art and entertainment.Dictation B An opera is a play with music.The actors sing some of the words instead of speaking them.In grand opera, they sing all the words.The music and singing portray the moods of the story and the feeling of the characters in it.To appreciate an opera, you should go and see one.Listening to opera on the radio or on records does not give much idea of what it is really like.Going to an opera can be very exciting.There is usually a large orchestra, and a chorus of singers as well as the leading singer.The scenery is colorful and the stage lighting often very dramatic.Although parts of an opera are treated in such detail that the action is rather slow.The beauty of the songs compensates for the breaks in the action.Spelling

It is often said that they are an American invention;but this is not entirely true.The motion picture has been the most international of the arts.At the end of the nineteenth century, inventors in France, England, and the United States were among the dozens of men who were trying to develop ways of using photographs to create the effect of motion.Soon after 1889, when the famous American inventor Thomas Edison first showed motion pictures through a device called the kinetoscope, other devices for the same purposes appeared all over the world.Edison had solved certain problems, making it poible for other inventors to develop their own devices.One other important contribution by Edison was the introduction of 35mm.as the international standard film width.When it became poible to use any 35mm machine for showing movies from any part of the world, the international trading of films began to take place.Unit 3

Dictation A: Specialists in marketing have studied how to make people buy more food in a supermarket.They do all kinds of things that you do not even notice.For example, the simple, ordinary food that everybody must buy, like bread, milk, flour and vegetable oil, is spread all over the store.You have to walk by all the more interesting things in order to find what you need.The more expensive food is in packages with bright-coloured pictures.This food is placed at eye level so you see and want to buy it.The things that you have to buy anyway are usually located on a higher or lower shelf.However, candy and other things that children like are on lower shelves.The store has a comfortable temperature in summer and winter, and it plays soft music.It is a pleasant place for people to say and spend more money.So be careful in the supermarket.You may go home with a bag of food you were not p;anning to buy.The supermarket, not you, decided you should buy it.Dictation B:
While I was shopping in a large department store, I stopped in the book department.I spent at least 30 minutes there because I was looking for a number of books which I wanted to give to people as presents.I found quite a few of them so I put them in a pile beside me.I was standing there and reading the books quietly, choosing some and putting some others back, when an elderly lady came up to me, pushed a book at me and said: “ I’ll take this.” I replied to her, “Go ahead, madam, but you had better pay for it first.” Then I realized that because I was standing by a great pile of books, she thought I was a shop aistant.I was starting to explain when she interrupted me and complained about the service in the shop.I said nothing and walked away.T F F F F

Dictation A The price of gasoline should have been set at dollars a gallon in 1918 when Henry Ford introduced the Model T.Consider what would have happened.If the price of gas had been too expensive for the average person, then there never would have been such serious pollution problems in every major American city.Moreover, there would be no need to rehabilitate our cities, because large numbers of people would never have left them for the suburbs.Finally, if the price had been set at ten dollars a gallon, there would have been enough gasoline reserves to last for centuries.Instead, the low price of gas helped to exhaust the supply and create over-dependence upon foreign sources of oil.Dictation B People used to think that the Miiippi was too big to be polluted.But today it is in trouble.In the past half century or so hundreds of factories have been built on the banks of the river.As production has increased, so has the amount of harmful waste been discharged into it by the factories.Every day, thousands of tons of industrial waste are poured into the river.In many places the water can no longer be safely used for drinking or irrigation.Birds and fish have been killed off in large numbers by water pollution.A New York paper reported on February 8, 1972, “The Miiippi has now been made so dirty that swimming and fishing in it are almost out of the question.” III.Translation 1.Linda can’t have gone to America, for I saw her yesterday in the street.2.The governments of these countries must take strong measures to bring population completely under control.3.The old couple should have applied for a number of traveler’s checks so that they needn’t have carried so much cash with them while travelling around the world.4.He is so famous an artist that his paintings should all be kept in such paces as art galleries or museums.5.For lack of experience, the young doctor didn’t take immediate action, which caused the death of the patient.6.She wanted to show in some way how much she cared about him and his happine.7.The president made a speech to the effect that the state would preserve its wildlife.8.Teachers should exercise their imagination and add art to their teaching.B.The Queen wasn’t an entirely succeful film.The music might not have been right for the theme of the film.The actre might not have been quite right for her role as a queen,.The director could have organized the plot more carefully.The actor’s role ought to have been larger.The producer might not have had enough time to supervise the production.They may not have had enough money to make a truly succeful film.But it was still a fine movie.Unit 5 I.Dictation A
A National Park is an area where natural scenery and wildlife is protected by law to preserve them for future generations.It is only recently that man has realized that he must make a positive effort if many species of wildlife and areas of great beauty are not to disappear forever.There are many kinds of areas of conservation and their central priorities may differ slightly.In the U.S.A., a national park such as Yellowstone safeguards natural features and wildlife in a way that will contribute to public enjoyment.In Africa generally, the chief purpose is the preservation of the remnants of the great herds of animals which once wandered around the country.National Parks depend on tourists for income but the animals must remain unharmed.National Parks may be small or large, privately or government owned.II.Dictation B We are trying to decide where to go on our vacation this summer.We usually go to Lake Arrowhead for a couple of weeks, but we’d like to go somewhere else this year.We’re tired of doing the same thing summer after summer.Some friends of ours suggested that we go to Hawaii.That would be wonderful!I am sure we’d enjoy a trip like that, but of course it’s out of the question.In the first place, it would be terribly expensive, and in the second place, there wouldn’t be enough time.As a matter of a fact, if we wanted to plan a trip like that, it might be advisable to stay home this summer and not go any place.That’s one way we could begin to save money for next year’s trip.Also, if we were to stay here, I could offer to work instead of taking two weeks off;then maybe my bo would recommend that I be given four weeks’ vacation next summer instead of two weeks.Spelling 1.digit

One solution is that we should have smaller families and lower the birth rate.Many nations have plans to limit their population.Another solution is that we should improve our food supply.Farmers are experimenting with ways to increase the amount of food that they grow on each piece of land.Another solution that may help is to plan places for people to live.Many countries are limiting the size of their large cities and trying to make people live in small towns and in the countryside.
