M: Oh good. W: And then the last one is to Bath on the 23rd of March. M: Oh yes, is Bath the Roman city? W: Yes, that’s right. And that’s in the 16 seats mini bus. M: And where’s the optional visit? W: It’s to the American Museum, well worth visit. M: Okay, that’s great. And thanks all that. 4 W: My pleasure.

To start your visit, I39。m just going to give you a brief account of the history of the museum before letting you roam about on your own. I won39。re standing you39。s rivers supported more than 160 water mills and many of these continued to operate well into the nieenth century. But then the steam engine was invented and then the railways came and the centres of industry were able to move away from the rivers and the countryside and into the towns. So industrial villages like this one became very rare. So that39。d like any more information, you can ask me some questions, or you can read further in our excellent guidebook. Now I’m going to give you a plan of the site and I’d just like to point out where everything is and then you can take a look at everything for yourself. I’ve already pointed out the river, which is on the left. And of course running along the bottom is Woodside Road. Got it? Ok, now, we are standing at the entrance. See at the bottom, and immediately to our right is the ticket office. You won’t need that because you’ve got your group booking, but just pass it are the toilets, always could to know where they are. In front of us is the car park as you can see. And to the left by the entry gate is the gift shop 6 that is where you can get copies of the guide like this one here. Now beyond the car park, all the buildings are arranged in a half circle with a yard in the middle. The big stone building at the top is the m The lower buildings you can see on the left are the cottages. These were built for the works towards the end of the eighteenth century and they are still furnished from that period so you can get a good idea of ordinary people living conditions. Across the yard from them, you can see the Stables where the horses were kept for transporting the products. And the separate building in front of them is the Works Office and that still has some of the old accounts on display. Right. If any one wants a guided tour, then I am starting at the engine room. If you’d like to, e along this way please, ladies and gentlemen. test1_section3 W: Excuse me, Dr. Johnson. May I speak to you for a minute? M: Sure. Come in. W: I’m Melanie Griffin. I’m taking your course in population studies. M: Right, so, well, Melanie, how can I help you? W: I’m having a bit trouble with the second assignment and it’s due in 12 days. M: What’s the sort of trouble are you having? Is the assignment question a problem? 7 W: Well, that’s part of the problem. I’m also having… been having trouble getting hold of the books. I’ve been to the library several times and all the books were out. M: It sounds like you should start borrowing the books a bit earlier. W: Well I have really a big assignment due for another course and I have been spending all my time on that and I thought… M: And you might get an extension of time to finish your assignment for me? W: If that’s possible. But I don’t know… M: Well. Yes it’s possible. But extensions are normally given only for medical or passionate reasons. Otherwise, that’s really a question of anizing your study and we don’t like giving an extension to a student who simply didn’t plan the work properly. What did you get for your first assignment? W: I got 87 percent. M: Umm. Yes, you did very well indeed. So obviously you can produce good work. W: I don’t think I need too much extra time, as long as I can get hold of some important refe
