Presenter: Thank you for joining us. Tonight on the show we have Ian Marshall, one of our local lifeguards, here to tell us a little bit about his job. Ian, thanks for coming. I’m sure that most of us have a very good idea about what a lifeguard does, but can you give us a few more details?

Ведущий: Спасибо, что присоединились к нам. Сегодня вечером на шоу у нас в гостях Ян Маршалл, один из наших местных спасателей, который расскажет нам немного о своей работе. Йен, спасибо, что пришёл. Я уверен, что у большинства из нас есть очень хорошее представление о том, что делает спасатель, но не могли бы вы рассказать нам ещё немного подробностей?

Ian: Sure. Well, of course, as a lifeguard, I make sure that people are safe in and around the water. I patrol the beach, but other lifeguards are on duty at lakes and swimming pools. A lifeguard is a necessity on a busy beach because even strong swimmers can get into trouble.

Ян: Конечно. Ну, конечно, как спасатель, я забочусь о том, чтобы люди были в безопасности в воде и вокруг неё. Я патрулирую пляж, но другие спасатели дежурят у озёр и бассейнов. Спасатель — это необходимость на оживлённом пляже, потому что даже сильные пловцы могут попасть в беду.

Presenter: OK, so how did you become a lifeguard, Ian?
Ведущий: Хорошо, так как же ты стал спасателем, Ян?

Ian: Well, actually, it was quite difficult. I had to take some courses including advanced first aid and beach management and then I had to complete various different fitness and skills tests. Even now, I take different courses to improve my skills. This year I’m hoping to take a course in powerboat driving.

Ян: Ну, на самом деле, это было довольно сложно. Мне пришлось пройти несколько курсов, включая продвинутую первую помощь и управление пляжем, а затем я должен был пройти различные тесты на пригодность и навыки. Даже сейчас я посещаю различные курсы, чтобы улучшить свои навыки. В этом году я надеюсь пройти курс вождения моторной лодки.

Presenter: And what’s a typical day like for you?
Ведущий: А какой у вас типичный день?

Ian: Well, between October and March, I’m on patrol from 6 in the morning until 3 in the afternoon. That’s OK with me – I actually really like early mornings! Daily duties include rescuing when necessary, of course, checking all the equipment and keeping swimmers aware of any dangers. Our main duty though is to observe the beach and the swimming area to make sure everyone is obeying the beach rules in order to prevent accidents and emergencies. There’s a lot of paperwork to do, too. This is probably my least favourite part of the job, but it’s very important.

Ян: Ну, с октября по март я нахожусь в патруле с 6 утра до 3 часов дня. Со мной всё в порядке — я действительно очень люблю раннее утро! Ежедневные обязанности включают, конечно, спасение при необходимости, проверку всего снаряжения и информирование пловцов о любых опасностях. Однако наша главная обязанность — следить за пляжем и зоной для купания, чтобы убедиться, что все соблюдают правила пляжа, чтобы предотвратить несчастные случаи и чрезвычайные ситуации. Кроме того, нужно сделать много бумажной работы. Это, вероятно, моя наименее любимая часть работы, но она очень важна.

Presenter: You mentioned equipment. What kind of equipment do you use?

Ведущий: Вы упомянули оборудование. Какое оборудование вы используете?

Ian: Well, we have a boat for accidents out at sea, but we also use horns, loudspeakers and even the simple whistle to get people’s attention. In fact, the whistle is probably the most important piece of equipment I use because I have it with me all the time and it’s very effective at getting people’s attention. There’s also a radio to get in touch with other lifeguards and the emergency services. It’s not very high-tech, I know, although I recently heard about some research that scientists are doing. They want to electronically tag sharks, so when they get near the shore, we get an SMS warning on our mobile phones.

Ян: Ну, у нас есть лодка для несчастных случаев в море, но мы также используем рожки, громкоговорители и даже простой свисток, чтобы привлечь внимание людей. На самом деле, свисток, вероятно, самый важный элемент оборудования, которым я пользуюсь, потому что он всегда со мной, и он очень эффективен для привлечения внимания людей. Есть также радио, чтобы связаться с другими спасателями и аварийными службами. Я знаю, что это не очень высокотехнологично, хотя недавно я слышал о некоторых исследованиях, которые проводят учёные. Они хотят пометить акул электронным способом, поэтому, когда они приближаются к берегу, мы получаем SMS-предупреждение на наши мобильные телефоны.

Presenter: Really? While we’re on the subject of sharks, just how dangerous are they to swimmers off the coast of Australia?

Ведущий: Правда? Раз уж мы заговорили об акулах, насколько они опасны для пловцов у берегов Австралии?

Ian: Well, in the past 10 years, sharks have killed about 10 people and attacked about ten others in Western Australia, but we shouldn’t just focus on sharks. There are many other dangers such as the box jellyfish, which is one of the most poisonous creatures in the sea, especially as it’s almost invisible to swimmers. Actually, another important part of our training is looking out for dangerous creatures and giving first aid treatment if someone gets, for instance, a jellyfish sting. The first thing we do with a sting is to pour vinegar on it! We also try to educate swimmers about the risks. A little knowledge can save a lot of lives.

Ян: Ну, за последние 10 лет акулы убили около 10 человек и напали ещё на десять человек в Западной Австралии, но мы не должны сосредотачиваться только на акулах. Есть много других опасностей, таких как коробчатая медуза, которая является одним из самых ядовитых существ в море, особенно потому, что она почти невидима для пловцов. На самом деле, ещё одна важная часть нашего обучения — это наблюдение за опасными существами и оказание первой медицинской помощи, если кто-то получит, например, укус медузы. Первое, что мы делаем с жалом, — это наливаем на него уксус! Мы также стараемся информировать пловцов о рисках. Немного знаний может спасти много жизней.

Presenter: Interesting, Ian. Well, it’s been fantastic having you on the show. Tune in next week, listeners, when we have a real-life storm chaser in the studio. Until then, good night and have a great week.

Ведущий: Интересно, Ян. Что ж, было здорово, что ты участвуешь в шоу. Настройтесь на следующую неделю, слушатели, когда у нас в студии будет настоящий штормовой охотник. А пока спокойной ночи и удачной недели.

1) Chilling Out — Охлаждение

The freezing cold has no effect on Wim Hof. Also known as the «Iceman», Wim Hof climbed Mount Everest wearing only a pair of shorts in temperatures that can kill an ordinary person. He holds an incredible nine world records and often appears in various countries up to his neck in ice. Scientists can’t explain Hof’s superhuman ability to put up with below-zero temperatures, but believe it may be due to his skill at meditation. When most people face extreme cold, the blood in their bodies moves away from theirfingers and toes to protect their inner organs. After years of meditating, Wim has complete control over his blood flow and can keep it moving to all parts of his body, no matter how cold it gets.

Леденящий холод никак не влияет на Вима Хофа. Также известный как «Ледяной человек», Вим Хоф поднялся на Эверест в одних шортах при температуре, которая может убить обычного человека. Он владеет невероятными девятью мировыми рекордами и часто появляется в разных странах по шею во льду. Учёные не могут объяснить сверхчеловеческую способность Хофа мириться с минусовыми температурами, но полагают, что это может быть связано с его умением медитировать. Когда большинство людей сталкиваются с экстремальным холодом, кровь в их телах отливает от пальцев рук и ног, чтобы защитить их внутренние органы. После многих лет медитации Вим полностью контролирует свой кровоток и может поддерживать его во всех частях тела, независимо от того, насколько холодно.

2) Making Dangerous Friends — Заводить Опасных Друзей

South African animalbehaviourist Kevin Richardson first made friends with some lion cubs 12 years ago at a lion park, and now he is playing with, cudding and even falling asleep next to lions! He says he can do this because he tries to know each animal’s personality and develop understanding with them. Now Richardson, known as ‘The lion whisperer’, cares for 39 lions on his 1,800-acre wildlife reserve. Kevin uses his fame to raise awareness about lions under threat in the wild. «Numbers have dropped by up to 75% in the past decade,» he says. Kevin also made a film using members of his adopted family called White Lion: Home is a Journey.

Южноафриканский анималист Кевин Ричардсон впервые подружился с несколькими львятами 12 лет назад в львином парке, и теперь он играет, обнимается и даже засыпает рядом со львами! Он говорит, что может сделать это, потому что он пытается узнать личность каждого животного и развить понимание с ними. Теперь Ричардсон, известный как «Шепчущий льву», заботится о 39 львах в своём заповеднике дикой природы площадью 1800 акров. Кевин использует свою славу, чтобы повысить осведомлённость о львах, находящихся под угрозой в дикой природе. «За последнее десятилетие их число сократилось до 75%», — говорит он. Кевин также снял фильм с участием членов своей приёмной семьи под названием «Белый лев: дом — это путешествие».

3) Finding it Easy — Найти его легко

32-year-old Daniel Tammet can solve the most difficult math problems in the time it takes most of us to remember where we put our calculator! He has an incredible mental ability to count and calculate. He doesn’t see numbers in his head, though, he sees shapes. «When I multiply, I see two shapes. The image starts to change and a third shape appears. That’s the answer.» Daniel is an autistic savant^∗ who has broken records with his unbelievable memory. Daniel can also speak 10 languages and learned Icelandic in just one week! In 2007, he also wrote his autobiography, Born on a Blue Day.

32-летний Даниэль Таммет может решить самые сложные математические задачи за то время, которое большинству из нас требуется, чтобы вспомнить, куда мы положили наш калькулятор! Он обладает невероятной умственной способностью считать и вычислять. Однако он не видит чисел в своей голове, он видит формы. «Когда я умножаю, я вижу две фигуры. Изображение начинает меняться, и появляется третья фигура. Вот и ответ.» Дэниел — учёный-аутист, который побил рекорды своей невероятной памятью. Даниэль также может говорить на 10 языках и выучил исландский всего за одну неделю! В 2007 году он также написал свою автобиографию «Рождённый в голубой день».

autistic savant^∗ — somebody with a mental condition that prevents them from communicaring well, but has a highly-developed talent in another area e.g., painting, calculating.

аутичный учёный* — человек с психическим заболеванием, которое мешает ему хорошо общаться, но обладает высокоразвитым талантом в другой области, например, в живописи, вычислениях.

1 Two families – one from London, and one from Liverpool – have won last night’s national lottery. Speaking from outside their home in London’s East End, Mr and Mrs Miller said that they will ‘not let the money change their lives’ and that they will both be at work as usual on Monday morning. The Liverpool family, who do not wish to be named, plan to move abroad.

2 For many years now, Changi Airport in Singapore has been voted the world’s best airport by airline travellers. Changi Airport does not simply provide travellers with wonderful restaurants and shops in a calm and pleasant atmosphere. You can also swim in its rooftop swimming pool, have a massage in one of its spas, sit quietly in the ‘garden’ area of its main hall, or watch TV in comfortable chairs while waiting for your flight.

3Before the invention of the compass, sailors looked to the sun in the daytime and to the stars at night to help them find their way across the oceans. For example, by locating Polaris (or ‘the North Star’) in the night sky, sailors could identify the direction of North. This is because Polaris never moves from its position in the night sky directly above the North Pole.

4Long ago, zoos obtained their animals by going out into the wild and capturing them. Today, this happens very rarely. For one thing, it is extremely stressful for the animals involved and there is a high risk of injury.

E A great shopping experience

F Working to protect animals

G Everything you need

H Waiting in comfort

Also, wild animals often carry diseases that would harm the other animals in the zoo. Today, therefore, most zoos get their animals from the captive breeding programmes of other zoos.

5Gyms these days are full of all kinds of fancy exercise equipment; treadmills, rowing machines, exercise bikes, resistance machines and much more. But the biggest gyms also have swimming pools, steam rooms and cafeterias. They offer classes in yoga, dance, aerobics and many other forms of exercise. And they have expert trainers on hand to answer all your fitness questions.

6Here is one thing that we can all do to help species that are close to extinction. When travelling overseas, be very careful not to buy any souvenirs that have been made from species nearing extinction. This means avoiding purchasing items made from ivory, coral and fur and also ‘medicinal’ products as they often contain rhino, tiger and bear parts.

7Wildlife parks and zoos are very educational places but perhaps their greatest purpose is the conservation of endangered species. Animal centres all around the world work together in order to breed rare and endangered species. For example, today there are only a few hundred giant pandas left in the wild. If breeding programmes and conservation efforts are successful, future generations may still be able to see these beautiful animals in the flesh, not just in books.

A15

We’d been all around the country that summer, finding temporary work to pay for our travels. Ian had grown up in a village, so

A16

the local farmers had been happy to hire him to help them out for a week or two. I’m a city boy myself, but because I’m pretty well-built I didn’t have a problem either. Of course, that meant that I got all the heavy work!

Once we had collected our bags, we followed the man up a nearby side-street. He didn’t stop talking the whole way. After a few twists

That first night we strolled around the town to see what opportunities there might be for work. Our last job had given us enough to live off for a few weeks so we weren’t desperate,

possible. Everyone we met was very friendly and we went back to our rooms feeling quite optimistic.

Within a couple of days, I had started work

at a fish restaurant in the town washing up the

A20

pots and dishes. Maybe it wasn’t the best job in the world, but after weeks of manual labour in the fields it was a welcome change. I could watch the chef preparing the food and sometimes, when the restaurant was particularly busy, I would help him. He knew

these rooms would be too expensive for us. The man must have read my thoughts. “Now, normally I’d be asking twice as much for these rooms,” he began, “but you’re in luck because the tourist season is practically over.”

The rooms were perfect. The décor was slightly shabby but, as if to make up for it, the balcony had a stunning view over the town. We decided to stay for a month initially, and depending on what happened, we would come to an arrangement after that. It was a relief to be settled somewhere, if only for a few weeks. I could now pack my suitcase in record time and we’d met so many people that I’d lost count. Sometimes when I was introduced to yet another stranger I would change my name, just to make it more interesting.

tasted amazing. I’d go home at night and write down the recipes and tips that I’d learnt.

Our first month in the town came to an end and we decided to stay for another three. Ian had found some painting and decorating work and I was quite happy. Those three months turned into six, and before I knew it I had been at the restaurant for a whole year. The chef asked me if I would like to become his assistant — he said I had a natural gift for cooking. So that’s how I ended up here, ten years later, as Head Chef at Alberto’s Fish

Restaurant. Ian is still here as well, running

A21

his own decorating business. One day I hope to achieve something similar for myself, too.

1 For hundreds of years, people have been competing in bizarre ‘gurning’ contests around England. What is gurning? Well, it is simply the act of making the ugliest face possible. Some elderly people can make some spectacular gurns. If they have false teeth, they can take them out and bring their lower lip so far up that it can cover their nose! But even younger people can make amazing gurns – just look at celebrity Jim Carrey!

2Thousands of spectators line the route of the Tour de France bike race each year, trying to see over other people’s heads. Then when the competitors pass, they flash by so quickly that it is hard to get even a glimpse of them. Therefore, it’s worth buying a tour guide with route information so that you can plan well in advance the best place to stand to see your favourite cyclists speed by.

3The goal of responsible tourism is to help people in need as well as the holidaymakers themselves. Some tour operators, for example, organise charity bike rides. Visitors cycle around places of interest following a pre-arranged route. They enjoy a valuable new experience and at the same time part of the cost of the holiday is donated to local community projects.

4The Sibit-sibit Festival is held each year to give tourists a rich and colourful picture of the history of Olongapo in the Philippines. Sibit-sibits are ancient paddle boats that

were used by fishing villages. During past celebrations, fishermen held races and won with their great physical strength alone. Today, the traditional Sibit-sibit Festival is a lively and enchanting event that brings together Olongapo’s rich past, successful present and promising future.

5Bicycles were first introduced in the 19th century and there are now over one billion of them worldwide. Many people still prefer this eco-friendly mode of transport. Postmen, delivery personnel and even police officers can often be seen riding bicycles.

6The Archaeological Seminars Foundation offers visitors of all ages the opportunity to ‘Dig for a Day’. This programme allows the unskilled enthusiast to get their hands dirty while getting the chance to make a fabulous discovery. Activities include digging, pottery examination and touring the latest excavation site. Thousands of people have already participated in this memorable experience!

7What is the most important mechanical invention of all time? The wheel no doubt! The earliest known use of the wheel was probably the potter’s wheel in 3500 BC in Mesopotamia. Interestingly enough, the wheel was used for manufacturing before it was used for transporting. Today, nearly every machine includes the wheel; from the smallest of pocket watches to the largest of aeroplanes.
