Activity 1:
Ralph: Hello?
Paula: Ralph, it’s Paula
Ralph: Hi
Paula: You know I told you we could apply to the local council for money for our drama club…I’ve
got the application form here but we need to get it back to them by the end of the week. I could send
it on to you – you really ought to fill it in as president of the club – but I don’t know if it’ll get to
you in time.
Ralph: Well, you’re the secretary, so I expect it’s OK if you fill it in.
Paula: Yeah…but I’d really like to check it together.
Ralph: Right. That’s fine.
Paula: Like the first part asks for the main contact person – can I put you there?
Ralph: Sure.
Paula: Right. So that’s Ralph Pearson…and then I need your contact address, so that’s 203 South
Road, isn’t it?
Ralph: No, 230…
Paula: Sorry, I always get that wrong…Then it’s Drayton …do you think they need a postcode?
Ralph: Better put it – it’s DR6 8AB
Paula: Hmmm. OK…telephone number, that’s 01453586098, isn’t it?
Ralph: Yes.
Paula: Right. Now, in the next part of the form I have to give information about our group … so,
name of group, that’s easy, we’re the Community Youth Theatre Group, but then I have to describe
it. So, what sort of information do you think they want?
Ralph: Well, they need to know we’re amateurs, not professional actors…and how many members
we’ve got – what’s that at present – twenty?
Paula: Eighteen…and, should we put in the age range, that’s 13-22?
Ralph: No, I don’t think we need to. But we’d better put a bit about what we actually do
….something like members take part in drama activities.
Paula: Activities and workshops?
Ralph: OK.
Paula: Right. That’s all for that section I think.
…..
Paula: Now, the next bit is about the project itself – what we’re applying for funding for. So first of
all they need to know how much money we want. The maximum’s £500
Ralph: I think we agreed we’d ask for £250, didn’t we?
Paula: OK. There’s no point in asking for too much – we’ll have less chance of getting it. Then, we
need to say what the project …erm, the activity is.
Ralph: Right, so we could write something like “to produce a short play for young children”
Paula: Should we say it’s interactive?
Ralph: Yes, good idea…
Paula: Right…I’ve got that. Then we have to say what we actually need the money for…
Ralph: Isn’t that it?
Paula: No, we have to give a breakdown of details, I think.
Ralph: Well, there’s the scenery.
Paula: But we’re making that
Ralph: We need to buy the materials, though.
Paula: OK. Then there’s the costumes.
Ralph: Right. That’s going to be at least 50 pounds.
Paula: OK. And what else…oh, I just found out we have to have insurance…I don’t think it’ll cost
much, but we need to get it organized.
Ralph: Yes…I’d forgotten about that, and we could be breaking the law if we don’t have it. Good
thing we’ve already got curtains in the hall, at least we don’t have to worry about that.

Paula: Mmm. We’ll need some money for publicity – otherwise no one will know what we’re
doing.
Ralph: And then a bit of money but unexpected things that come up – just put “sundries” at the end
of the list.
Paula: OK, fine. Now the next thing they want to know is if they give us the grant, how they’ll be
credited.
Activity 2: You will hear part of an international radio broadcast on the subject of Guy Fawkes
Night’, an annual public celebration in Great Britain.
Presenter: Every year in Britain, at the beginning of November, schools have a one week holiday
and on the fifth of November, many people celebrate Guy Fawkes Night. The celebration centres
around the burning of a life-sized model of a man, with a black hat and beard, called “Guy”. The
model has been specially made for this purpose. It’s a wonderful time for kids of all ages but not so
much fun for cats and dogs, which are usually terrified by sounds of exploding fireworks and
skyrockets. To understand the reason for this tradition, we have to go back almost 400 years to a
time when there were two important religious groups in Britain – the Catholics and the Protestants.
For many years, there had been fighting between them. In 1605, the king, James I, and his
government, were Protestants and they made life rather difficult for the country’s Catholics, of
which there were many. According to the popular story, a group of prominent Catholics met
secretly and decided that the king and his government must die. They came up with the idea of
destroying the Houses of Parliament with explosives. The leader of this gang of conspirators was a
man called Robert Catesby. Of course, being well-known Catholics, the group were not trusted by
the government and so they needed the help of a professional soldier who the government officers
would not recognize. The man they eventually found for the job, was Guy Fawkes. After an
unsuccessful attempt to dig a tunnel, the conspirators bought a house beside the parliament building,
which already had a tunnel going into the Houses of Parliament for its cellar. For many weeks,
Catesby and his companions moved huge barrels of highly explosive gunpowder along the tunnel
and placed them in exactly the right places under the government building. When the king and his
parliament had their first meeting of the year in November, the conspirators planned to explode the
gunpowder and so kill everybody in the building. Guy Fawkes had the important job of watching
the street outside the conspirators’ house and warning the others of any approaching danger. Well,
the king found out about the plot and he sent soldiers to arrest them. However, they found only Guy
Fawkes on duty outside the house. The other conspirators had escaped.
Eventually, all the plotters were caught and executed but Guy Fawkes has remained the
most famous, probably on account of his being caught first. There was also another result of the
discovery of the plot. Afterwards, all Catholics in England were blamed for the attempted attack,
and this gave the Protestant government the excuse it wanted to persecute the Catholics even more.
Although these events are still celebrated throughout Britain today, Catholics and Protestants have
learned to live together in peace and so the celebration itself is mostly harmless fun. Besides, the
story is no longer believed by most serious historians.
Activity 3: You will hear a woman and a man speaking together on a train.
W= woman M = Man
W: It’s me again…no…, look, this is no good. I’m talking to you on my mobile and the train keeps
going into tunnels and we get cut off. Yes, I know this is important… Look, I’ll phone you again
when I get off to change trains at Haywards Heath…Okay then…
M: Er,..excuse me, did I just hear you say “Haywards Heath?”
W: Well, er…yes…that’s where….
M: But isn’t this the train for Salisbury – I mean, that’s what it said on the board?
W: Oh, I think you should have been in the front four coaches. You see, the train divided at Redhill
and this is one of the rear four coaches, which goes on to Brighton.
M: Oh, oh…but that’s impossible, it didn’t say anything on the announcement board. How…how
did you know?
W: They made an announcement, didn’t you hear it?
5
M: Er..no. I can’t believe this is happening.
W: Well, if you don’t believe me, go and ask the guard.
M: Oh…hang on…If this is the Brighton train, I haven’t got the right ticket. I could end up having
to pay extra and I’ve only got plastic, which he won’t accept
W: Well, what you could do is get off at the next station and get the next train going back to
Redhill. Let’s see, the last one was Three Bridges, so we should be arriving in Balcombe in just a
minute.
M: And I can just get on another train without showing my ticket?
W: Ah, now that’s a point. That’ll be a bit difficult at a small station like Balcombe. No, what you
need to do is get off at Haywards Heath and cross to platform 3 where the northbound trains depart
from.
M: Is that what you’re doing?
W: Not exactly, I’ll be taking the connecting service to Lewes but I can show you where to go.
M: Er…look…thanks very much. I really appreciate this. Er…you don’t happen to know if there
actually is a northbound train to Redhill at this time of night?
W: Mmm… I think they run trains all night because of Gatwick airport. But if you like, I could
phone through to central enquiries and make sure.
M: If it wouldn’t be too much trouble. Look, um, I really appreciate this.
W: No, don’t mention it. Now, let’s see if I can get this thing to work this time.
