Julie: Hi Nick. It’s Julie. Have you managed to find any information about accommodation in
Darwin?
Nick: Hi. I was just going to call you. I’ve found some on the Internet. There are quite a few hostels
for backpackers there. The first possibility I found was a hostel called Top End Backpackers.
Julie: OK.
Nick: It’s pretty cheap, you can get a bed in a dormitory for nineteen dollars per person. Private rooms
cost a bit more, but we’ll be OK in dormitories, won’t we?
Julie: Sure.
Nick: So that hostel has parking, though that doesn’t really matter to us as we’ll be using public
transport.
Julie: Yeah. Are there any reviews on the website from people who’ve been there?
Nick: Well, yes. They aren’t all that good though. Some people said they didn’t like the staff, they
had an unfriendly attitude.
Julie: Mmm. That’s quite unusual in a hostel, usually all the staff are really welcoming.
Nick: That’s what I thought. People said they liked the pool, and the fact that the rooms had air-
conditioning, but the problem with that was that it was very noisy, so they were kept awake. But it
was too hot if they turned it off, so they had to put up with it.
Julie: Someone told me there’s another hostel called Gum Tree or something.
Nick: Gum Tree Lodge. It costs a bit more, forty-five dollars a person.
Julie: What?
Nick: Oh, no, that’s for private rooms, it’s twenty-three fifty for the dorms.
Julie: That’s more like it.
Nick: It looks to be in quite a good location, a bit out of town and quiet but with good transport, and
quiet near a beach.
Julie: Has it got a pool?
Nick: Yes, and its own gardens. The reviews for that one are mostly OK except for one person who
said they couldn’t sleep because there were insects flying around in the dormitories.
Julie: Not for me then. And I’d rather be somewhere central really.

Nick: Right. There’s a place called Kangaroo Lodge. They’ve got dorms at twenty-two dollars. And
it’s downtown, near all the restaurants and clubs and everything, so that should suit you. And it
doesn’t close at night.
Julie: So there’s always someone on reception. That sounds good.
Nick: The only criticism I saw was that the rooms were a bit messy and untidy because people just
left their clothes and stuff all over the beds and the floor.
Julie: Yeah, they usually do, but apparently they don’t here.
Nick: Still, hostels are never particularly tidy places, so that doesn’t bother me. And the same person
said that the standard of cleanliness was pretty good, and especially the bathrooms, they were
excellent as far as that went.
Julie: Right. Yeah, I reckon Kangaroo Lodge sounds the best.
Nick: Me too. Quite a lot of people reviewing it said it was really fun there. Every night, everyone
staying there got together and ended up having a party. So it sounds like it’s got a really good
atmosphere.
Julie: OK, let’s go for that one.
Julie: Did you get the address of Kangaroo Lodge?
Nick: Yes ... it’s on Shadforth Lane.
Julie: Can you spell that?
Nick: S-H-A-D-F-O-R-T-H. It’s near the transit centre where the intercity buses and the airport
buses drop you off.
Julie: Cool. I’m really looking forward to this. I’ve never stayed in a hostel before. Do they provide
bed linen sheets and things?
Nick: Yeah. You can usually bring your own towel. or hire one there, but they don’t usually provide
those for free.
Julie: And what happens about meals?
Nick: Well, you don’t have to pay extra for breakfast. It varies a lot in different places but generally,
it’s OK. And there’s usually a café where you can buy a snack or a hot meal for lunch. But actually,
if you’re really traveling on the cheap, usually for every five or six rooms there’s a kitchen where
you can knock up a snack, and that saves a lot of money.
Julie: Great. Right, well shall I go ahead and book that…

Part 2.
Int: Jack Salter is a young Canadian who has just won the young photographer of the year
competition. Jack, is that right – you started out taking photos of street signs?
Jack: That’s right. I’ve been serious about photography for about a year, maybe a year and a half,
but I’ve been taking photos ever since I was little. I probably first picked up a camera when I was
about seven, and went around talking photos of street signs of all shapes and sizes. My mother tells
me it was all down to my being attracted to the bright colours. I guess she’s right.
Int: Can you tell me a little about the winning photograph?
Jack: It was the first day of dry weather for a while, and I decided to go out and play around with
some new kit for my camera. I started off in my own yard. There wasn’t much to photograph though
until this butterfly happened to land on a large flower, and fortunately I was able to get what turned
out to be the prizewinning photo.
Int: Were you happy with the photograph?
Jack: I was lucky actually, because on the camera screen the butterfly didn’t look terribly amazing. I
could see that it was in a great position and the background scene was nice and clear, but you couldn’t
see the pattern on its wings because of the size of the screen. It was only when I saw the picture on
the computer that I realised how good it was.
Int: What do you think of the other photos from the competition?
Jack: I’ve seen the work on display with mine and the standard is hard to believe. There are photos
of animals and plants from all over the world, and you can see the work of photographers from places
as far apart as Russia and Australia.

Int: Has anything changed for you since winning the competition?
Jack: That’s a hard question. Before winning I’d been concentrating mainly on taking photos of
people, although after coming to London for the exhibition and talking to all the other photographers,
I intend to get more into doing shorts of landscapes in different countries.
Int: Do you have any advice for young people starting out in photography?
Jack: Don’t make excuses. My entry was taken with an excellent camera, but that’s not everything.
My method is just to get out there, and do it, and you don’t have to go far to get the shot, you’ll find
something. You’ll start to love it.

JOHN: Erm…hello Professor, I’m John Wishart. I’m working on my entry for the Global Design
Competition. My tutor said you might be able to help me with it.
PROFESSOR: Ah, yes, I got a copy of your drawings. Come in and tell me about it. What sort of
competition is it?
JOHN: Well, it’s an international design competition and we have to come up with a new design for
a typical domestic kitchen appliance.
PROFESSOR: I see, and are there any special conditions? Does it have to save energy for example?
JOHN: Actually that was the focus in last year’s competition. This year’s different. We have to adopt
an innovative approach to existing technology, using it in a way that hasn’t been thought of before.
PROFESSOR: I see, that sounds tricky. And what kitchen appliance have you chosen?
JOHN: Well, they’re an everyday kitchen appliance in most Australian houses but they’re all pretty
boring and almost identical to each other. I think some people will be prepared to pay a little extra
for something that looks different.
PROFESSOR: That’s a nice idea. I see you’ve called your design ‘the Rockpool’; why is that?
JOHN: Basically because it looks like the rock pools you find on a beach. The top is made of glass
so that you can look down into it.
PROFESSOR: And there’s a stone at the bottom. Is that just for decoration?
JOHN: Actually it does have a function. Instead of pushing a button, you turn the stone.
PROFESSOR: So it’s really just a novel way of starting the dishwasher.
JOHN: That’s right.
PROFESSOR: It’s a really nice design, but what makes it innovative?
JOHN: Well, I decided to make a dishwasher that uses carbon dioxide.
PROFESSOR: In place of water and detergent? How will you manage that?
JOHN: The idea is to pressurize the carbon dioxide so that it becomes a liquid. The fluid is then
released into the dishwasher where it cleans the dishes all by itself.
PROFESSOR: Sounds like a brilliant idea! Your system will totally do away with the need for strong
detergents. So what happens once the dishes are clean?
JOHN: Well, to allow them to dry, the liquid carbon dioxide and the waste materials all go to an area
called the holding chamber. That’s where the liquid is depressurised and so it reverts to a gas. Then
the oil and grease are separated out and sent to the waste system.
PROFESSOR: It sounds like you’ve thought it all out very thoroughly. So, what happens to the
carbon dioxide once the process is complete? Not wasted I hope.
JOHN: Actually, that’s where the real savings are made. The carbon dioxide is sent back to the
cylinder and can be used again and again.
PROFESSOR: What a terrific idea. Do you think it will ever be built?
JOHN: Probably not, but that’s OK.
PROFESSOR: Well, I’m sure a lot of positive things will come out of your design.

Students entering the design competition have to __________.

Part 4.
Tree planting now dominates political and popular agendas and is often presented as an easy answer
to the climate crisis as well as a way for business corporations to offset their carbon emissions. But
unfortunately tree planting isn’t as straightforward as some people think. When the wrong trees are

planted in the wrong place, it can do considerably more damage than good, failing to help either
people or the environment.
Refarestation projects are currently being undertaken on a huge scale in many countries and it’s
crucial that the right trees are selected. A mix of species should always be planted, typical of the local
natural forest ecosystem and including rare and endangered species in order to create a rich
ecosystem. It’s important to avoid non-native species that could become invasive. Invasive species
are a significant contributor to the current global biodiversity crisis and are often in competition with
native species and may threaten their long-term survival.
Restoring biodiversity that will maximise carbon capture is key when reforesting an area but ideally
any reforestation project should have several goals. These could include selecting trees that can
contribute to wildlife conservation, improve the availability of food for the local community and
maintain the stability of soil systems. Meeting as many of these goals as possible whilst doing no
harm to local communities, native ecosystems and vulnerable species is the sign of a highly successful
tree planting scheme.
To ensure the survival and resilience of a planted forest, it’s vital to use tree seeds with appropriate
levels of genetic diversity, the amount of genetic variation found within a species essential for their
survival. Using seeds with low genetic diversity generally lowers the resilience of restored forests
which can make them vulnerable to disease and unable to adapt to climate change.
Choosing the right location for reforestation projects is as important as choosing the right trees.
Ultimately, the best area for planting trees would be informally forested areas that are in poor
condition. It’s better to avoid non-forested landscapes such as natural grasslands, savannas or
wetlands as these ecosystems already contribute greatly to capturing carbon. It would also be
advantageous to choose an area where trees could provide other benefits such as recreational spaces.
Reforasting areas which are currently exploited for agriculture should be avoided as this often leads
to other areas being deforested.

Avoid which species in reforestation?

How many goals should a highly successful scheme meet?

Vital seed characteristic for forest resilience?

Besides right trees, another important factor?

Ecosystems that contribute greatly to capturing carbon?

PART C Herbs (76–85)

Choose A–D.

HERBS AND DRUGS
Herbs are different kinds of plants and plant parts that can be used for medicinal purposes. This
can be the leaves, stems, roots or seeds of the plant. Herbs have been important traditional medicine

for centuries in both the East and the West. In Western medicine, they have been largely replaced by
drugs. Herbal treatments are, however, still an integral part of Eastern medicine.
The main difference between herbs and drugs is that, while herbs are simply parts of the plant,
drugs are specific chemicals in a pure form. Many modern drugs are derived from chemicals found
in plants. One example is aspirin, which is made from a chemical extracted from the bark of the
willow tree. Other drugs are entirely synthetic. Even those drugs that are derived from natural sources
are heavily processed in order to purify and concentrate them. This allows drugs to be administered
in very precise amounts. Different kinds of degrees and illnesses often require dosages that differ
only slightly. A little too much or not enough of a certain drug can have negative effects on the patient.
These undesired negative effects are called “side-effects”. The possibility of dangerous and
unexpected side-effects from drugs has led many people back to traditional medicine.
There are, however, disadvantages to herbal treatments. Few herbal treatments have been
scientifically studied. While the active chemicals in the herb may be known, it may not be clear what
they really do, or if they are really effective at all. Because the active chemicals are not used alone, it
is very difficult to determine the proper amount of treatment, since the levels of the chemical in herbs
are not constant throughout the plant. Therefore, the risk of under - and overdose is higher than with
drugs. A more serious problem is that certain herbal treatments may have no real medicinal effects,
thus giving the patient a false sense of security. This is particularly harmful when the patient refuses
treatment with modern drugs that could be effective.
There are even certain herbs that can cause side-effects, just like a drug. [I] One of these is ma-
Huang, also called ephedra, which is taken to increase energy. [II] It has been known to cause damage
to the heart and nervous system. Garlic and ginger are common elements in food that are also taken
as herbal treatments, but they can be dangerous for people with diabetes. [III] In general, herbs are
most dangerous when they are taken along with common drugs. This may happen in two ways: a
patient decides to supplement his or her regular treatment with herbs, or a dishonest manufacturer
adds modern drugs to an herbal treatment. [IV] In both cases, the results can be very serious.

PART C Machu Picchu (86–95)

Headings + YES/NO/NG.

The Lost City
An explorer’s encounter with the ruined city of Machu Picchu, the most famous icon of the Inca
civilization
A. When the US explorer and academic Hiram Bingham arrived in South America in 1911, he was ready
for what was to be the greatest achievement of his life: the exploration of the remote hinterland to the
west of Cusco, the old capital of the Inca empire in the Andes mountains of Peru. His goal was to locate
the remains of a city called Vitcos, the last capital of the Inca civilization. Cusco lies on a high plateau at
an elevation of more than 3,000 meters, and Bingham’s plan was to descend from this plateau along the
valley of the Urubamba river, which takes a circuitous route down to the Amazon and passes through an
area of dramatic canyons and mountain ranges.
B. When Bingham and his team set off down the Urubamba in late July, they had an advantage over
travelers who had preceded them: a track had recently been blasted down the valley canyon to enable
rubber to be brought up by mules from the jungle. Almost all previous travelers had left the river at
Ollantaytambo and taken a high pass across the mountains to rejoin the river lower down, thereby cutting
a substantial corner, but also therefore never passing through the area around Machu Picchu.
C. On 24 July they were a few days into their descent of the valley. The day began slowly, with Bingham
trying to arrange sufficient mules for the next stage of the trek. His companions showed no interest in
accompanying him up the nearby hill to see some ruins that a local farmer, Melchor Arteaga, had told
them about the night before. The morning was dull and damp, and Bingham also seems to have been less
than keen on the prospect of climbing the hill. In his book Lost City of the Incas, he relates that he made
the ascent without having the least expectation that he would find anything at the top.
D. Bingham writes about the approach in vivid style in his book. First, as he climbs up the hill, he
describes the ever-present possibility of deadly snakes, ‘capable of making considerable springs when in
pursuit of their prey’; not that he sees any. Then there’s a sense of mounting discovery as he comes across
great sweeps of terraces, then a mausoleum, followed by monumental staircases and, finally, the grand
ceremonial buildings of Machu Picchu.
E. We should remember, however, that Lost City of the Incas is a work of hindsight, not written until
1948, many years after his journey. His journal entries of the time reveal a much more gradual

appreciation of his achievement. He spent the afternoon at the ruins noting down the dimensions of some
of the buildings, then descended and rejoined his companions, to whom he seems to have said little about
his discovery. At this stage, Bingham didn’t realize the extent or the importance of the site, nor did he
realize what use he could make of the discovery.
F. However, soon after returning it occurred to him that he could make a name for himself from this
discovery. When he came to write the National Geographic magazine article that broke the story to the
world in April 1913, he knew he had to produce a big idea. He asked himself if it could have been the
birthplace of the very first Inca, Manco the Great, and whether it could also have been what chroniclers
described as ‘the last city of the Incas’.
