S = Student A = Student’s Aunt S: So did you live at home then, Auntie Sue? When you were at university? A: No, no – in those days, they encouraged us to move away from home – to learn to be more independent I suppose. I remember how excited I was to leave home. I couldn’t wait to live on my own and be a real grown up! Though, to b e honest, it didn’t turn out exactly as I’d hoped! S: Why? What happened? A: Well, some first year students lived in college rooms on campus. They had their own rooms and everything. But I wasn’t so lucky. I was put in lodgings with an old couple who didn ’t have any children. Basically they were expecting me to be a surrogate daughter I think - and spend weekends and evenings with them. It was pretty awful! S: And did you spend time with them? A: I did try a bit at first – but honestly, it was so boring. I ended up sleeping on friends’ floors in college at weekends and had a great time, of course! Mind you, it must have hurt the old Upper Intermediate Tests Audio Script PHOTOCOPIABLE © 2011 Pearson Longman couple’s feelings. I’m not very proud of that I must say – but what could I do?

C: Thank you, Helen. Yes, 10,000 demonstrators have been here since the early hours in reaction to the government’s proposal to build a nuclear power station on the west coast. People have come from all parts of the country, both supporters of the proposal, and those environmental and anti-nuclear groups who oppose it. Supporters say it would be the answer to the country’s energy problems, while opponents argue that not only will it endanger wildlife but also destroy the local fishing industry. The Keep Nuclear Out organisation has collected 50,000 signatures and will present their petition to the Minister for the Environment at three o’clock this afternoon. Now back to Helen in the studio.
