Listening text:

A doctor is talking to a visitor to Britain about her life in the north of England.

(D - Doctor ; V - Visitor)

V: What do you do for a living?

D: I’m a doctor. I treat people with skin diseases.

V: Are you an expert?

D: Yes. I suppose you could call me that! I don’t do any general medicine. I treat people who have trouble with their skin. I do research into skin cancer, and other things. I go abroad to international conferences where I often have to give a talk. I write articles for magazines, so I have a very busy life.

V: What do you do in your spare time?

D: Spare time? I love paintings. So when I go abroad to conferences I try to visit the art museum there. I enjoy music. I play, but not very much now, and I also sing in a group once a week.

V: What do you do when you’re at home?

D: I enjoy cooking. I have a small garden and I grow flowers. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough room to grow any vegetables. When anything in the house goes wrong, I fix it. At the moment, I’m painting my living room.

V: What do you do at the weekend?

D: Cleaning, shopping and cooking! But if the weather’s fine, I try to get out of town for a walk. My house is very close to the mountains and it’s beautiful taking a walk around there.

V: What made you decide to study medicine?

D: I had a serious disease when I was young. So I spent a lot of time in hospital between the age of six and sixteen. In total, I think I had eight operations on my left leg. So I got to know the inside of hospitals very well, and I became very interested in medicine. I can walk now but I can’t run. If I go for a long walk, I’ll feel very tired the next day.

Dear Professor Peterson,

We are very glad to know from your letter that you will come to our school on June 12th to give us a talk on “The Beginning of Space”. All of us are interested in this topic. We are looking forward to your coming that day.

We are sorry to hear that you have your legs broken. We hope that there’s nothing so serious and that you’ll be all right very soon.

Now, about the things that you want to know for sure.

First, luckily, our lecture room is on the ground floor. It won’t be too much trouble for you to get to the lecture room in a wheelchair.

Second, our school will send a car to fetch you at about 8:30 and two students from the Students’ Union will be in the car to meet you. Many of us will gather at the school gate to welcome you and help you out of the car.

It’s so nice of you to bring a video tape with you for a video show. We have a TV and video set in the lecture room. We’ll be very happy to watch it.

Thank you very much!

Yours sincerely, Wang Lin
