8. Listening 4.1. You will hear a university travel agent and 2 students discussing travel options for the mid-semester vacation. Before you listen you have some time to look at questions 1 to 4. Now as you listen answer questions 1 to 4.
A: So, you want to plan a trip for the mid-semester break?
M: Yeah, that’s right. We don’t have very much time. So we won’t be able to go over very far. We’d like to get away for about 3 or 4 days.
A: OK. No problem. There are quite a few nice spots within an hour or 2 from here.
W: I heard there were some little villages with boutiques and tea shops.
M: Oh, no. I don’t want to spend my holiday watching you shop. Anyway, we don’t have much money.
W: You are right. I don’t have that much money. I just heard there were some really nice arts and crafts. I’d like to have a look.
A: Rosemont, Richmond and Sun Valley all have boutiques with plenty of arts and crafts. But the best place to find a good variety of pottery, local art, hand-made jewelry, clothe and so on, is the week-ends markets in Richmond. The only trouble is that there aren’t any food stores. Luckily there are some great restaurants, cafes and tea shops 20 minutes away in Rosemont.
W: Great. Are there any youth hostels around there?
A: Yes, there is one in Richmond. Let me get you a pen and book.
M: What about camping sites? I haven’t been camping for ages. And we probably won’t have much money left after we’ve been to the market.
W: Very funny. Camping would be great. Isn’t there a site in Sun Valley?
A: There is. But I’d only stay there if absolutely necessary, as times grow is a much nice location, close to the beach, and there is lots of local wild lives. Besides if you want to do more than swim like go surfing and wind surfing Goom is only 10 minutes from times grow.
M: That’s all sounds great. Do you have some more brochures we can take away with us? We need to talk about it with our friends before we make a decision.
A: Sure. I will get them for you.
That is the end of listening 4.1.
