Tell Me About Your Interests!
Anne
W: I want to be a writer when I grow up. In fact, I am writing many things right now. I write in my diary every
night before bed. It helps me remember my experiences and feelings. I also write fan fiction. They’re stories made
using the characters and settings of other people’s stories. Do you want to know what kind of fan fiction I write?
I’ll give you a hint… it has magic in it!
Carlos
M: I love competition. That’s why I do combat sports. Combat sports are activities like karate and judo. At the
moment, I’m taking taekwondo classes. I’m applying for my blue belt next week. I hope I get it. I have two
dreams. One of my dreams is to get a gold medal at the Olympics. My other dream is to be a famous mixed
martial artist like the fighters you see on TV.
James
M2: I have a lot of interests. It’s hard for me to pick just one. Right now, I’m really into squash. I played tennis for
a little while and got bored. Squash is similar to tennis in many ways but also very different. In tennis and squash,
you use a racket and take turns hitting the ball. But a squash racket and ball are smaller than a tennis racket and
ball. Also, the size of a squash court is smaller. This makes the games feel a lot faster.
Sarah
W2: I do a lot of different things. I’m on my school’s softball team, and I surf with my friends on the weekend.
But secretly, I have a favorite hobby: magic. Hear me out… I’ve always loved magic shows. Magicians like David
Blaine and David Copperfield are so exciting to watch. I know it’s not real, but I can’t help but love it. In my free
time, I like to practice magic tricks and work on routines.

<Track 1-03>

Number 3
W: Ezra! Ezra!
M: Huh? Oh, sorry. I couldn't hear you. I had my headphones in.
W: It's OK. What are you doing? Yoga?
M: Yeah. I'm trying to do more relaxing things. What did you need?
W: Oh, right. Mr. Garcia wants to know if we're joining the debate competition this month.
M: Oh. Yeah. I plan to. What about you?

Number 4
W: It's so quiet here. Iman? Are we in the right place?
W2: I think so. The email said to be here at 10 a.m.
W: I hope we're in the right place. I can't find our teammates. The match is supposed to start at 11.
W2: Wait, I just got a text message. We're in the wrong place.
W: Oh no! Do you know where we need to go?
W2: Yeah, it isn’t far from here.

<Track 1-09>
Number 1
M: Do you need help with something in your life? Having trouble deciding what to do in the future? Let me help
you. My job is to teach people how to live their lives better. Many of the people I work with are successful
businessmen. They hire me to help them find a better balance between their work and home life.

Number 2
W: Would you like to live a more relaxed lifestyle? Have you considered yoga? I have practiced yoga for years to
help with my stress. I started teaching yoga full time just two years ago, and I love it. Teaching yoga is great
exercise for your body and mind.

Number 3
M2: Do you want to improve your health? Are you trying to get stronger, or are you simply looking to lose a little
weight? Let me help you live a more active lifestyle. I’ve been a personal trainer for five years and have helped
many people reach their fitness goals.
Number 4
W2: Do you have trouble communicating? Do you know someone who has trouble communicating? If you do,
please consider music therapy. Music therapy is a great way to help quiet and shy people open up to others. It’s
also been proven to help people with intellectual disabilities learn to socialize with others.

<Track 1-10>
M: Boxing legend Juan Manuel Márquez was born in Mexico City. He grew up in a poor and dangerous area. But
Márquez stayed out of trouble. He was a quiet boy and a good student. Before his professional boxing career, he
was an accountant.
Márquez was always an active person. He started boxing at the age of eight. He was also very careful about living
a healthy life and keeping his diet healthy.
Márquez became the world champion in four weight classes. He was the third Mexican boxer ever to do this. He
held nine world champion titles between 2003 and 2007. He is best known for fighting Filipino fighter, Manny
Pacquiao, and fellow Mexican, Marco Antonio Barrera.

Number 1
W: I used to go to a private school. It was very different from the school I go to now. We didn’t have to wear
uniforms there. So, I used to wear a hoodie and jeans to class every day. Now, I have to wear a uniform. It’s so
boring!

Number 2
W2: I used to like really loose clothes. They are very comfortable. But lately, I’ve been wanting to try on different
clothing styles. I am going to the department store this weekend with my mom. We will be looking for some new
clothes that are a bit tighter. My mom says it will make me look more mature.

Number 3
M: When I was in elementary school, I was really into Japanese cartoons. I used to watch shows like Dragon Ball Z
every day. These days, I’m more into sports. I like to watch soccer games with my friends. It’s so much fun to
watch a game together.

Number 4
M2: I need to buy some new pants. My old pants are getting way too tight. Maybe I grew a little. I tried on three
different pairs of pants. One pair are blue with holes in them. The other pair are black and very tight. The last pair
are also blue and loose. I think those are the pair I will buy. I like how comfortable they are.

<Track 2-03>
W: Hi! My name is Amanda, and I have a little sister named Mandy. She’s just two years younger than me. My
mom asked me to give Mandy some of my clothes that I don’t wear anymore. I think I will give her my old jacket.
I used to really like leather jackets, but this one is too short. I think it will fit Mandy better than me. I'm only
going to give her the one jacket. I’ll keep the other one. I’ll also give her these jeans. They’re faded and a lot
tighter than this other pair. I’ll keep the dark blue pair for myself. I think baggy clothes are coming back into
fashion. I don’t really like dresses. Actually, I don’t like any clothes without sleeves, so I’ll give Mandy this pink
dress. The orange jacket and scarves are mine! They’re my favorites. I’ll give Mandy all my old shoes if they fit her.
They’re too small for me. When she gets home, I’ll ask her to try them on.

<Track 2-04>
Number 1. I really like this company. All their designs are so pretty—especially their shirts.
Number 2. I don’t know much about fashion, but I know that I don’t like those shoes.
Number 3. My school does not allow us to wear short skirts.
Number 4. I used to wear a wallet with a chain on it.
Number 5. I love these sneakers! They’re so comfortable.
Number 6. I don’t like to buy cheap clothing. I want clothes from a good brand.
Number 7. I saw a celebrity wearing a jacket just like that on TV.
Number 8. My school doesn’t let girls wear jewelry at school either! It’s so unfair!

<Track 2-05>
Number 1, Inara
W: I used to love sneakers. I loved them so much that I would wear a different pair every day at school.

Number 2, Darwish
M: I used to follow a certain celebrity on social media. I won’t say who—but I would copy whatever he did. I even
tried to wear the same brands of clothes as him and act like him. It’s kind of embarrassing now.

Number 3, Nadine
W2: I never used to wear skirts. I hated them! I preferred jeans. I would fight with my mom every time she tried
to make me wear a skirt. But I’m kind of used to them now. They’re not as bad as I thought when I was a kid.

Number 4, Charlie
M2: I used to really like wearing jewelry. Everywhere I went, I had to wear some kind of jewelry. No matter what, I
had on a gold chain, earrings, and a watch. My mom would complain all the time about me wearing too much
jewelry. But I didn’t care. In fact, I still like wearing jewelry. I got rid of the earrings, though.

W: Fashion Trends through the Ages
In the 15th century, most people had healthy teeth. This is because sugar was not in most food since it was very
expensive. One person who loved sweets and had enough money to buy them was Queen Elizabeth I of England.
She loved sweets so much that some people say her teeth were black. But instead of seeing black teeth as dirty,
people saw them as trendy. People started to blacken their teeth so that they could look rich and noble like
Queen Elizabeth.
High heels are very popular with women. Women wear them with both formal and casual clothing. Some are
cheap and affordable, while others are extremely expensive. But here’s a little secret: high heels were first popular
among men! High heels were originally made for Persian horse riders. But they became popular in the 15th
century with Europeans. In fact, people say that King Louis XIV, one of the most famous kings of France, wore
heels that were almost 10 cm tall!
The samurai were once the highest class of people in Japan. People looked to them to see what was fashionable.
One thing that almost all samurai had in common was their hairstyle—called a chonmage or top-knot. This look
was made by shaving the top of one’s head and growing out the back and sides. Then the long hair was
wrapped into a bun and placed on top of the head. Samurai did this to help keep their helmets on top of their
head, but it soon became a very fashionable hairstyle.

<Track 2-08>
Number 1. I really like this shirt’s pattern. It’s very colorful.
Number 2. This shirt’s collar is too tight. It’s really uncomfortable.
Number 3. I have to go to the dry cleaner’s and pick up my blouse.
Number 4. That jacket is so old-fashioned. Why don’t you wear something trendier?
Number 5. What do you think of my outfit? I bought it last weekend.
Number 6. My sister wears a very nice-smelling perfume. I wonder what it’s called.
Number 7. That’s a really unusual sweater. What is it made of?
Number 8. My dog ate my mom’s lipstick. Now his whole mouth is red.

<Track 2-09>
Number 1: Three days ago, we went to the first day of Fashion Week.
Number 2: Tuesday was the best day of Fashion Week. My favorite brands and designers showed their work.
Number 3: Tomorrow will be super busy! We are going to wait in line to see the opening of the new Marc
Mendez store.
Number 4: Not much happened yesterday. It rained, so we stayed in for most of the day.
Number 5: On Saturday, I will probably sleep all day!

M: Excuse me, Miss. Have you seen my friend Amanda?
W: Um… What does she look like?
M: She’s medium height with blonde hair.
W: I’m sorry. You’ll have to be more specific. There are a lot of people here that look like that.
M: Hmm… She was wearing a loose blue cardigan… or was it red? No, I'm sure it was blue. She was also wearing
a skirt.
W: I’m sorry. I still don’t remember seeing anyone like that. Was she wearing a school uniform?
M: Yes! She was.
W: … with a white collar?
M: Yes, that’s her.
W: Did she carry a yellow backpack?
M: Oh… no. Yellow backpack? That must be Catherine.
W: Oh, I think I remember! She had a brown bag, right?
M: Yes!
W: You just missed her. She left maybe 20 minutes ago. I think she said something about going to the library.
M: Oh, thank you.

<Track R1-02>
W: Hi. Sorry to bother you. Have you seen my friend Michael? He is wearing a school uniform. I think he left
about 10 or 15 minutes ago.
M: Umm. Can you describe him a bit more?
W: Oh, um… He’s wearing a blue and white uniform.
M: Sorry… a lot of kids from the school come here.
W: He’s wearing black pants and sneakers.
M: Is he wearing a jacket?
W: Yeah, he always wears a gray and blue jacket.
M: Is he wearing a blue vest, too?
W: No, I don’t think so.
M: Was he wearing anything else? Jewelry or a backpack.
W: Jewelry? Hmm… no. Oh, his backpack is green.
M: Hmm, I didn’t see any boys with a green backpack. Are you sure his backpack is green? It isn't blue?
W: Yeah, I'm sure. That sounds like Peter. Maybe Michael didn’t wear his backpack today.
M: Wait... does he have dark brown hair?
W: Yeah!
M: I think I saw him heading to the cafeteria.
W: Oh! I must have just missed him.

so exciting. I don’t like classical, and I hate jazz: I think it’s so boring.
M: Hi, I’m Joe. OK, so… I like most kinds of music, but I really like dance music and classical. I play the cello, so I
often listen to classical. I don’t like rock music, and I hate metal.
W2: Hi! I’m Marcy. I love jazz, so I listen to it every day on my phone. I always feel so relaxed when I go to a jazz
concert. I don’t like pop music, and I hate loud rock music—it gives me a headache.

<Track 3-04>
M: OK, so what are your favorite songs, like ever: your top-five list?
M2: Well, I like many different music genres… So, I’ll probably pick very different songs. Hmm… At number 5, I
chose the classic rock song, Let’s Get Out of Here. For number 4, I chose a beautiful classical piece by Bach,
Fugue in D minor. I chose the EDM hit, Move Your Body for number 3. Hmm.... Number 2… I think I’d pick the
romantic pop song, Love U Always.
M: Oh, I love that song.
M2: It’s great, isn’t it? And finally, my number 1 favorite is… the metal song, Darkness at Noon.

W: Three new games this week!
First up is a new game from ImagineLab. The game is called Lock & Load. It’s an FPS, and it’s really exciting. You
can choose one of three shooters and choose clothes for the shooter. There are so many maps to play! I often
think that FPS games are boring, but I played this one for six hours and didn’t get bored!
Second is Dragon King II. This is a new MMORPG from XS Design. It is a newer version of 2010’s Dragon King,
and this one has new characters and places. The game is well-designed. It’s easy to join other players while you
are playing, but the game is very difficult. After two hours of playing, I was bored and tired.
Finally, we have Grand-Prix 3: Euro-Tour. It’s a new racing game, and it’s such a fast and exciting game! You can
race your car in ten different European cities. The graphics are so good! It feels like you’re traveling around
Europe. It’s easy to play at first, but gets challenging later. It’s always interesting, though. Buy this game. It’s
AWESOME!

There are a lot of different devices in my house. That’s because my dad loves technology. He always buys the
newest stuff, like tablets and drones. His favorite machine is a robot that cleans the floor. He plays with it by
feeding it popcorn.
Number 2
My mom does a lot of research for her company. She collects data on people using the internet. She takes the
information and uses it to create advertisements. She says it’s a very hard job, but fun.
Number 3
My brother wants to be a scientist in the future. He is always working on different inventions. Yesterday, he
showed me a new invention. He made a solar-powered bicycle. Talk about impressive!
Number 4
Today I found a strange rock on my way to school. It was a light-green color when I found it. Later in the evening,
it had turned a dark red. I was surprised. I asked my teacher, and she said it was a rare stone called Alexandrite.

<Track 4-03>
M: Technology: Past, Present, and Future
A.
Books used to be hard to find and very expensive. They were expensive because every book was written by hand.
This also made it hard for people to share information. Around 1439, Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing
press. It used raised letters that could be moved around in a machine to make words. Then he put ink on the
letters and pressed paper on it to copy the words. This allowed Gutenberg to create hundreds of pages of text in
minutes. His invention made books easier to make and cheaper.
B.
The smartphone is one of the most useful inventions of the 21 st century. In 2018, 77 percent of all adults in the
US owned a smartphone. Research also found that 36 percent of the world’s population owned a smartphone.
This might be because smartphones have so many uses. People use them to play games, work, take pictures,
record videos, share ideas and experiences, etc. Yet, there are some people who think smartphones are harmful.
These people believe that always being connected makes people less happy.
C.
One technology that will change the world is artificial intelligence. The most common form of AI right now is
machine learning. Machine learning is a system that computers use to learn and predict results. You can find this
kind of AI in chatbots, self-driving cars, and on your smartphone. But scientists want to go further. Using data,
scientists are trying to create real artificial intelligence, or true AI. They want to create a machine that can think
like a person.

<Track 4-05>
Number 1. A program that is used by smartphones and computers is described as this.
Number 2. This is something that we find on the front of a smartphone. It is also a part of a laptop, tablet, and
computer monitor.
Number 3. When something such as a machine works without being controlled by a person, we describe it as
being this.
Number 4. The act of putting something on the internet is described as this.
Number 5. The act of getting something from the internet, such as music or a program, is described as being this.

<Track 4-06>
Number 1, Holly
M: What do you think will be different in the future?
W: Maybe there will be fewer screens. Maybe we will be able to use the internet without a phone or computer.
Number 2, Benjamin
W: What do you think will be different about school in the future?
M: I don’t think school will be as long. Perhaps we will all be able to take classes at home through the internet.
Number 3, Melody
M: What do you think artificial intelligence will be able to do?
W: I think it will make it easier for people to make decisions. Artificial intelligence can be very smart and help
people make smart choices.

W: Hello. My name is Megan, and I’m a programmer. Actually to be specific, I'm a UX designer for smartphone
applications. You know the applications you download to your phone? Well, it’s my job to make those
applications easy to use. Everything you see on your screen when you open one of my applications is carefully
planned to make the application simple to understand. Maybe you’re using one of my applications right now and
don’t even know it.
Number 2
M: Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Jacob, and I'm a futurist. My job is a little difficult to explain. I work with scientists
and social scientists to explore and predict the future. How do I do this? Well, I have a very thorough process.
First, I do lots of research and study trends. Then, I find patterns and try to find out the main reason for these
trends. None of my predictions are based on guesses. Using my research to predict trends in people’s behavior is
perhaps the biggest part of my job. Companies can see what is making customers do certain things and then
make new products that they will want in the future.
Number 3
M2: Hi. It's a pleasure to meet you. My name's James, and I'm a back-end developer. You probably don’t know
what that is. Let me explain. When you go online, you see many websites. What you see on the screen is made
by a front end programmer. My job is to make sure that everything behind the website works well. For example,
it's my job to make sure that everyone's downloads and uploads are fast. I also make sure that the speed of
automatic updates is fast. This way, you won't miss any comments from your friends and family on posts you
make.
Number 4
W2: Hi! I’m Amy, and I’m an AR/VR developer. You’ve probably heard of virtual reality. With virtual reality, we try
to make a digital world. Many people have already seen this with things like video games. AR, or augmented
reality, is similar to VR, but it includes the use of actual reality. This technology has also been used in games like
Pokémon Go. Using a camera and a smartphone, you can use AR software to interact with digital programs. Fun,
no?

M: Hey, Nadine. Are you busy next weekend?
W: Hi, Sam. Well… Yeah, a little.
M: Oh… What’ll you be doing?
W: I’ll be doing a bunch of errands for my mom. Oh, and I might have to meet my study group.
M: I see. That’s too bad. Call me if you have some spare time. We should hang out more.
W: Sure, Sam. I’ll text you.

Number 2
W: Hey, Max. Have you started working on your science project, yet?
M: Not yet. I can’t decide what to do.
W: What are you thinking of doing it on?
M: My dad thinks I should do something simple, like trying to find out the best way to grow certain plants.
W: And what do you think?
M: I might do something on memory and smartphones. I want to know if we remember things better when we’re
told by phone call or by text message.
W: That sounds interesting!

Number 3
W: Hi, Jason. Where are you going?
M: Oh, I’m just finishing my computer programming class. I have P.E. next.

M: Palm Jumeriah is a palm tree shaped artificial island in the United Arab Emirates. Engineers began to develop
the island in 2001. To make the island, engineers first studied the area to make sure it was safe to build on.
Second, engineers collected sand from the ocean. This was used to build the islands. But, before they started
making the tree part of the island, they needed to build a large dam around the area. This dam kept waves from
destroying the islands. Third, they used satellites to help control the construction. Lastly, they made holes in the
dam around the island. They did this to bring fresh sea water to the island.

M: Hi, Maxine!
W: Phil! I didn’t expect to see you here.
M: What are you working on?
W: Oh, this? I’m just writing down my plans for the weekend.
M: You must have some exciting plans if you’re making a schedule…
W: You could say that. My friends and I are working on an application. It creates an AR/VR classroom
environment.
M: That sounds amazing. I didn’t know you could do that.
W: One of my friends has an uncle who is a back-end developer. He’ll be helping us over the weekend.
M: So, what do you and your friends think AR/VR will be like in the future?
W: I’m pretty sure the headsets will be a lot lighter. Right now, we’re using really heavy headsets.
M: You mean we’ll probably be wearing glasses instead?
W: Yeah, something like that.
M: Do you think all the schools will be taught in AR/VR, too?
W: I hope so! Then our application can be used in all schools!

<Track R2-02>
W: George, I heard you’re leading a new team for the smartphone application project.
M: I’m surprised you already know that, Jenna.
W: It is a small office, George. News travels fast. So, who’s on your team?
M: Well, we have Patty. She’s the new UX designer. I’ve seen some of her work, and it’s really excellent! She’s the
one who designed the FastGrub app.
W: I use that app all the time! Who else is on your team?
M: Dora is our AR/VR developer. She’s an expert in developing headsets that can tell where the user is looking.
Plus, she is really excited about the technology.
W: Sounds interesting. And who’s your back-end developer?
M: His name is Ian.
W: Ian? Ian Miller?
M: Yes! We managed to get a back-end developer from a major tech company to join our project!
W: That sounds amazing! Looks like you’ve got a great team on your hands.
M: Speaking of my team, they should be arriving at any minute. Would you like to meet them?

M: Potato chips, chocolates, French fries… They’re all really unhealthy foods.
W: Ugh… Jake, you sound like my mom. I’m healthy!
M: You won’t be for long if you eat like that. Let’s go get a decent dinner together.
W: Like what?
M: Let’s go for sushi.
W: Sushi? I’d prefer cooked food.
M: Have you ever tried sushi?
W: No...
M: Come on, you'll like it. I promise.
W: Fine. Let's go.

Number 4
W: OK. I have one spaghetti and meat balls and one salmon. Would you like any sides?
M: My friend will have the mixed vegetables and oil. I can't quite decide. What's gnocchi?
W: Gnocchi are small soft dumplings. They're made from potatoes, flour, and eggs.
M: I see. Hmm, that sounds like a bit too much for me. I'll have the roasted green beans and tomatoes.
W: Excellent choice, sir. The tomatoes today are very good. Would you like anything to drink?
M: Just water.
W: Coming right up.

<Track 5-04>
M: Hey, Milla. Are you ready to order?
W: Not quite. I can’t decide. You’ve been here before, right, Martin? What do you recommend?
M: Everything. I really liked the barbecue chicken pizza I had last time. The basil pan steak is also really good.
W: Hmm. I don’t want to eat that much. I’m looking for something healthier.
M: Why don’t you try the chicken Caesar salad?
W: That doesn’t look bad… What are you having?
M: I’m going to have the penne arrabbiata.
W: What’s that?
M: It’s penne… umm, tube-shaped pasta… and arrabbiata sauce, which is basically tomato sauce with red chili
peppers.
W: Here comes the waiter.
M2: Hi, there. What can I get you?
M: I’d like the penne arrabbiata.
M2: Good choice. Any sides?

M: No, way! He's never been in trouble before. Whose car did he steal?
W: His parents’.
M: Wait... I know it's stealing... but is it really such a big crime? I don't feel like he should be punished so much
for that.
W: What? Rules are rules. I think it’s good that his parents are letting him sit in jail for a little bit to teach him a
lesson.

M: What? Yeah. Of course I do.
W: It doesn’t look like it. Why don’t you take your bike to a repair shop?
M: What? No way! I can do this perfectly on my own.
W: If your bike breaks down, you’ll be in big trouble. Just take it to the shop.
M: OK… Just let me try a little bit longer on my own. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take it to the shop.
W: OK!

W: Whoa… You’re right. Isn’t that a crime?
M: Yeah. It is.
W: Well, that’s a silly rule anyway. Just forget about him.
M: I think it’s actually a pretty big crime. I’ve heard of people getting huge fines and even going to jail from
doing it.
W: Jail? Wow, that’s harsh.
M: I don’t think it’s that harsh. Copying a movie in theaters hurts the studios and actors that make it. It's the
same as stealing. If he is caught, he will have to be punished.
W: You have a point-but can’t we just enjoy the movie?
M: All right. I’ll try and forget about it.

M: So, what started the fire?
W: The fire department thinks it was from a candle. The staff were having a birthday party.

W: Well, they’re made from very high-quality materials. They’re also very tough. High-performing athletes use
these kinds of clothes in training.
M: Still, the price is way too high.
W: If you sign up for a membership here, you’ll get a discount. Also, you will be able to get a coupon for that

M: Toyosu Market - Tokyo, Japan
Toyosu Fish Market is the largest fish market in the world. It replaced the world famous Tsukiji Fish Market.
Toyosu is almost twice the size of Tsukiji Market. It houses thousands of employees, so it’s a very busy place.
Toyosu is also the host of the famous tuna auctions once held in Tsukiji. At these auctions, hundreds of customers
line up as early as 3 a.m. to bargain for fresh tuna. Customers at these auctions spend lots of money. In fact, in
2019, a rich restaurant owner paid over 3 million dollars for just one blue fin tuna.
Maeklong Railway Market - Bangkok, Thailand
If you visit Bangkok, make sure to see the most dangerous marketplace in the world. This marketplace isn’t
dangerous because of crime. It’s dangerous because a train goes right through it! Seven times a day, a train
passes through this marketplace. Stall owners have to move their goods out of the way to let the train pass. Most
of the stalls sell food, so come hungry and ready to eat!
Chichicastenango Market - Chichicastenango, Guatemala
Chichicastenango Market in Guatemala is the largest open market in the country. Guatemalans also call the
market “Chichi.” It’s a very colorful market. It is open on Thursdays and Sundays. You can bargain for goods such
as jewelry, fabrics, food, and souvenirs here. Keep an eye out for Mayan souvenirs, such as the brightly painted
masks.

W: #FridaysForFuture
Pollution is a huge problem. In places such as China, air pollution is very bad. People must wear masks every day.
In South Africa, water pollution has made the water unsafe. Pollution is also causing climate change. This has
many serious consequences. But what can we do to stop this? Scientists in many countries have warned
governments about pollution. Some have listened; others have not. Many countries even promised to make
changes, but their efforts don’t seem to be fixing the situation. This might be why 16-year-old Greta Thunberg
started the #FridaysForFuture movement.
In 2018, Greta Thunberg started skipping school every Friday. She wanted to raise awareness of climate issues in
Sweden. She called her movement #FridaysForFuture. Her protests started to get a lot of attention. Then, on
March 15th, 2019, students in over 100 cities around the world decided to join in. They came out to raise
awareness of climate change. They wanted to show the world that children are no longer asking for change. They
demanded change. They wanted safety and health in the future. They wanted to breathe clean air. They wanted a
clean planet.

M: Great Inventions by Great Minds!
Louis Pasteur
Louis Pasteur was a French scientist. He invented a way to make foods such as milk and fruit juice safer to drink.
How did he do it? First, he had to find out why certain foods made people sick. This is how he discovered germs!
Germs are small living things. They can make people who come in contact with them very ill. Before Pasteur,
nobody knew what germs were. Next, Pasteur had to find a way to remove the germs from the food. He invented
a process to do this: pasteurization. Pasteur found that heating foods to a high temperature would kill most
germs. Many foods are still pasteurized today. Eggs, milk, juice, canned foods, and others are a few examples.
Alexander Fleming
Infections are caused by germs that poison the body. In the past, doctors didn’t know how to stop infections. So,
they used to have to cut off people’s infections to stop them from spreading. But this was dangerous and painful.
It also didn’t always work. They needed the right medicine. Alexander Fleming was a professor at St. Mary’s
Hospital in London. He was studying the flu. One day, a small accident changed medicine forever. He went on a
two-week vacation. He left a dish with the flu virus out. When Fleming returned, he found mold in the dish. But
he also saw something very strange. The germs didn’t grow where mold was. Fleming discovered penicillin, a
powerful antibiotic! Finally, doctors had a way to stop infections. This saved many lives.

M: Gravity has always been around, but we only really started to understand it 300 year ago. Before that, nobody
had a good reason to explain why things fell. Then, Sir Isaac Newton came up with an idea. He was an English
mathematician and physicist. He is remembered as the man who discovered gravity. The legend says that he
discovered it by watching an apple fall. Actually, he discovered gravity by realizing that something must pull
apples downwards. Otherwise, they wouldn’t fall from their original place in the trees. Then, Newton looked at the
moon. He realized that something must be keeping it from flying away. This little idea led to a series of
experiments. These experiments created a group of rules that helped shape physics. They are called Newtonian
physics. Using these rules, scientists were able to make thousands of new discoveries. For example, two people
calculated the existence of two planets—Neptune and Uranus—without seeing them.

<Track 10-3>
W: The Paradox of Choice
Scientists have found that decision-making is more difficult when people have many options. In a study, scientists
offered shoppers six different jams. Then they recorded how many people bought the jam. Next, the scientists
offered twenty-four different jams. They found that people were way less likely to buy jam when they had more
options. To check their results, they even did the test with other things, such as chocolate and coffee. The results
all came out the same. Scientists found that choice creates decision paralysis. They now call this situation “the
paradox of choice”: you want choice, but when you are given it, you can’t decide! Having many options gives
people stress. It also causes people to think too much about their decisions. So, what can be done? Well, there’s
no clear answer. Everyone is different. Some believe that you need to get used to the idea of “good enough.”
There’s no “best” option. Others say that you need to think about “what’s most important” to guide your
decision-making. What do you think? How often do you have decision paralysis?

the woman will give the man an expensive watch. For women, the best gifts are usually makeup, designer
clothing, and handbags.
They even have a tradition to give friends gifts. If a couple meets because of a friend, they often give that friend
a gift as well. If a man introduces the couple, he is usually given a new suit. If a woman introduces the couple,
then she is given a handbag. Do you know any gift-giving traditions in your country?

M: Grandma, can I ask you something?
W: Of course, Jonathan.
M: Can you tell me about Grandpa?
W: Well, your grandfather was a very smart man. His dream was to be a teacher, but he never went to school.
M: Really? Why was that?
W: Back then, your grandfather’s family was very poor. It was more important for him to make money than to go
to school.
M: Was he clever?
W: He was very clever. Brave too. He learned how to read by looking at newspapers.
M: That’s amazing! He’s a lot smarter than me. I only learned because I had teachers.
W: Well, your grandfather was always good at guessing. He was usually right.
M: How did you two meet?
W: We met outside of a concert my friends wanted to go to. Your grandfather saw me, and he guessed that I
hated concerts because they were so noisy. So, he invited me to a quiet cafe. It was lovely.
M: I guess sometimes being good at guessing is more useful than learning things in school.
W: Sometimes. But you, Jonathan, need to stay in school.
M: I know, I know.

W: Greg, have you written your report on an interesting family member?
M: Not yet. Who did you write your report about, Wilma?
W: My dad. His life is actually a lot more exciting than I thought.
M: Really? How come?
W: He used to be a musician and played keyboards in a jazz band.
M: Wow! My dad just used to sell DVD players. Does your dad still play music?
W: Nope. He gave it all up to become a math teacher. Now, he always makes me study math... I think I would
prefer a musician for a father.
M: I wouldn’t. My aunt is a musician. She would always practice her guitar and drums when she lived with us. It
was so noisy.
W: But you got to listen to music all the time. You didn't even need an MP3 player! My parents never got me a
music player when I was young. I remember begging my parents for one when I was little.
M: A music player isn't like a musician practicing, though. It gets really boring if you listen to same thing over and
over.
W: Well, at least you have an interesting family member to write about now.
M: I guess you’re right! I should write about my aunt!
