【正文】 someone in Antarctica will need about just over double! This energy is provided by foods which are high in carbohydrate and fat. Rations for fieldwork present an additional problem. They need. to provide maximum energy, but they must also be pact and light for easy transport. Special boxes are prepared, each containing enough food for one person for twenty days. You may be familiar with coffee processed by freezedrying, which preserves the quality of the food product while making a large saving in weight well, this type of presentation is ideal in our situation. It wasn39。t built on land but on an iceshelf, hundreds of metres thick. Supplies were brought to us on large sledges from a ship fifteen kilometres away at the ice edge. Living in the Antarctic hasn39。 I was based on one of the allyearround ones.The research stations are really selfcontained munities of about twenty people. There39。s simply a wilderness of great beautyFirst, some facts and figures. Antarctica is a place of extremes the highest, coldest and windiest continent and over fiftyeight times the size of the UK. The icecap contains almost 70% of the world39。 for researchers like me, it remains a place of great intellectual challenge。ve learnt this time. Do you have any ideas about...SECTION 4 Tonight I39。s very interesting. Next semester we will anther video project with a different content, of course but you39。dplete each separate step of the project, and we should have agreed about that in the beginning, because we were always late with everything! T: Right. Anything else? C: I think we should have tried to experiment more with the camera. I mean with angles, and the focus and that kind of thing. T: So you should have been more ambitious? Do you agree, Ibrahim? I: Not really. In fact, I think we were too ambitious. We were inexperienced, and we didn39。t plan very well. For example, we didn39。d like to ask. What mistakes do you think you, as a group that is, made? I mean, to put it another way, if you had to do it all over again, is there anything you39。re filming you think that everything39。ve never done anything with a group before, and we had to find ways of cooperating, erm, and promising, and sometimes persuading people, when they don39。ve talked a little bit about enjoyment, and about language practice. Were there any other benefits? What else did you feel you39。t speak as slowly as most of the tutors on our course. I think they speak at natural speed, so it forces me to get used to it. And they use a lot of slang. T: So you learned some new words which will be useful? I: Yes. TUTOR: Good. I39。s good for your English too. Cristina, what did you find? What was the most useful aspect of the project from the point of view of the English practice? C: I think, when we were being shown how to edit the film, we had to follow the instructions. And that was very good practice for me. And I also learned sometechnical words that I hadn39。t decided what to make yet I can tell you they39。ll maintain the contact now? I: I hope so. I39。d never been inside a British home before. T: OK Cristina, thanks. What about you, Ibrahim? What did you enjoy? I : Well for me it was a very good chance to get to know students who are on other courses, because everyone in our group is studying English, and we don39。d like to use this tutorial as a feedback session, where you reflect on the experience of doing the project. So Cristina, I was wondering, what did you enjoy most about making the video? CRISTINA: I liked using the camera.T: Is it the first time you39。d like some more information about where to donate an old bicycle or offer help in other ways please contact us on ...SECTION 3 TUTOR: First of ail I39。re always interested to hear of other places that would benefit from receiving a consignment of bikes, and wele suggestions from people who39。ll strip it down for spare parts. Of course, to do that we always need tools, which are expensive to buy, so we wele any that you can give. Also, you could help by contacting the voluntary staff at our offices, they39。s in if we can39。d like to send more, at least 50,000 by the end of the year. Now there are many ways in which you can support the work. of Pedal Power, not just by taking a bike to a collection in your area. I should also like to say if you do have a bike to donate, it doesn39。re currently looking to invest in puters so that our office staff can do an even better job. Because of our work, people in a number of countries now have a better standard of living so far we39。t recognise it as the same place. In fact, there are more bikes than on the streets of Amsterdam, if you39。t really help the local economy The demand for bikes is enormous, which makes them very expensive locally So we sell them for 5% of the normal price. But in order to continue operating we need to have a constant supply of bikes which we send out every six months. One example of a own that39。t give them away for free. We39。s business was unusually successful, and for years I couldn39。d like to talk about the work of Pedal Power, a small charity based mainly in the UK. I39。ll be along later this week to join. Thanks. Bye.SECTION 2My name39。s just changed it. You can contact him by ing the library. M: Okay. Right, well that39。s our resident author. He runs the creative writing classes.M: John ... Grant .... Could you spell that for me please? L: .M: Are the classes here at the library? L: Yes he39。t take coins. M: OK. Oh by the way, another thing I was wondering about was if you ran any writing classes through the library? L: We do, but you39。ve got all the big nationals, The Guardian and The Observer, The Independent and The Times and Sunday Times. We39。 notice. However, the earliest you can book a puter is fortyeight hours before you need it, and you can only book one hour at a time. If noone else has booked the puter out, then you may be able to have
