M I’m Tony from the Daejeon local news center. Let’s check the weather for today. The water on the streets turned into ice overnight. Today, it will snow again. In Busan, the wind will blow and the temperature will fall below zero. In Seoul, it will be cold as the other cities, but everyone in Seoul will be able to enjoy clear skies. In Daegu, it will rain in the morning, and the rain will turn into snow in the afternoon.

02

M What are you making?

W I’m making a cup with a handle.

M What are you going to do with the cup?

W I’m going to give this to my mom as a gift. She got promoted this time.

M That’s amazing! How will you decorate the cup?

W I’m thinking of drawing a flower and a butterfly on it.

M It must be nice.

03

W Have you ever heard about Kay?

M Of course. I know him very well. He is a world-famous singer, isn’t he?

W Yes, he is. You know what? I ran into him in front of the cinema.

M I can’t believe it! He’s my favorite singer. Did you get his autograph?

W Of course I did. More surprising is that I took pictures with him.

M I wish I could do that.

04

M What did you do last weekend?

W I went to the national zoo with my friends.

M Did you go to see the panda?

W No, I do volunteer work there once a month.

M Really? What kind of work do you do? Do you feed the animals?

W Not really. Feeding the animals is not as easy as you think. We clean up the animal cages.

M Oh, I think that would be tough.

W Yeah, but it’s rewarding.

05

W Good morning. May I help you?

M Hello. I’d like to open a bank account.

W Okay, come and sit here. Can you show me your ID card first?

M Sure, here you are.

W Please fill out this form.

M Do I have to I make a deposit today?

W Yes. You must put a little money in your account.

M I see. How long will it take?

W It won’t take long.

06

M Did you see the curling match yesterday?

W Are you talking about the match with Japan? Of course I did.

M It was amazing, wasn’t it? When the final stone was thrown, my family all shouted with joy.

W I was worried the Korean team would lose the game when the Japanese team turned the game around.

M So was I.

W Anyway, the Korean team surprised many people around the world.

M You can say that again.

07

M Claire, are you okay now? You didn’t feel well yesterday.

W Yes, my mom made me herb tea and it made me better.

M You mean you got well because of herb tea?

W Yes. Whenever I’m ill, my mom makes it for me and it really works for me.

M Well, when I’m sick, I usually have hot water or chicken soup. But next time, I’ll try your way.

08

M Can I borrow your science textbook today?

W I’m sorry. I have a test, so I have to study with it. Where is yours?

M I don’t know. I can’t find it anywhere.

W Don’t you remember where you left it?

M No, but I’m certain that it is somewhere in the classroom.

W I think I saw a textbook on the lockers in the classroom. It might be yours.

M Really? I have to go back and check it.

09

W Welcome to the Seoul Water Center. First, we are going to watch a video clip about the history of the city’s running water. Then, I will explain how the water in the Han River goes to the taps in your homes. After that, we are going to move to the water treatment plant and see the facilities. When you leave the plant, I will give each of you a water bottle. You can taste water that was just treated.

10

M Attention, please. In ten minutes, we’ll call at the Mystic Seaport. It’s a fabulous place to visit, shop and eat. You can take photos if you’d like to. Also, I recommend you to try various dishes there. But, please don’t smoke because there is a large gas station nearby. Thank you and enjoy your stay.

11

W What great pictures! I’m sure you have traveled a lot.

M Yes. I have traveled to more than ten countries.

W Wow, when did you visit all those countries?

M My dad is a diplomat. He has worked in many countries, so we could travel thanks to him.

W I see. By the way, I’m curious about this girl with blonde hair. Who is she? She is pretty.

M That’s my cousin. She lives in Paris.

12

M Judy, what are your plans for this weekend?

W I’m still not sure. Do you have any special plans?

M Yes, my grandparents run a farm in the country. So I will help them plant some vegetables on the farm.

W That sounds good.

M I’m calling to ask you to go with me there.

W Sure, I’d love to.

13

M Excuse me, can I ask you to show me this red shirt in a smaller size?

W Sorry, it is sold out. We have a black shirt and a white sleeveless shirt in that size.

M How much are they?

W The black one is $35, and the white one is $55.

M I have only $50. I have no choice but to take the black one.

W It’s cheaper, but more popular than the white one.

14

M How can I help you?

W I bought this magazine here yesterday, but some pages were missing.

M Let me check that magazine. (pause) I’m very sorry. Do you keep your receipt?

W Yes, here you are.

M Would you like to get a refund or exchange it?

W I want to exchange it for a new one.

M Okay. Again, I’m really sorry about that.

15

M I’m going to school now, Mom.

W Don ’ t for get to go to the dental clinic at 4 p.m., will you?

M Oh, no! I totally forgot about it.

W Why? Are you planning to do something at that time?

M My friends and I are going to practice for a school drama festival at 4:30. We can’t change the time.

W Then, I will move the check-up time earlier, at 3 o’clock.

M Thanks, Mom.

16

M I wanted to have a new camera as a photographer of my school newspaper. So I have worked three times a week at a restaurant to earn some money. But the camera I wanted was too expensive. So I couldn’t make enough money. When I came home this afternoon, I found a box on my desk. Guess what? It was a new camera with a note from my parents. The note said “For a future photographer. Good luck, son!”

17

① W Can you drive?

M No, but I have a driver’s license.

② W Why don’t we take a walk?

M That’s a good idea.

③ W I picked this flower.

M You should not do that.

④ W Do you want me to give you a ride?

M No, thanks. I prefer walking.

⑤ W Could you please pick up some milk on your way home?

M Okay, I will.

18

W Your attention, please. Before you enter the museum, you should know some rules. We have various artworks here, so you are not allowed to take drinks or foods inside. Also, you should be quiet when you watch artworks. You must not touch the works or take pictures, either. However, you can take pictures without a flash.

19

M We often use gestures when we talk to other people.

W Right. I think gestures help us to express ourselves more clearly.

M They do. It is almost like a “second language.” Do Koreans use gestures often, too?

W Of course. We communicate by using many gestures.

M Then, what gesture do Koreans use for “Hello”?

20

W Excuse me. You cannot make a U-turn here.

M I know, but I have an important thing to do. And there are no cars on the street.

W I understand, but I have to give you a ticket anyway.

M What? Are you serious?

W Yes. You broke a traffic law. Give me your driver’s license.

M Oh, please give me a chance!
