4 Experience Lesson 4.1 Discussing past performance
Students build up their vocabulary base with a gap-fill activity based on the sentences from the recording.
24 Play the recording for students to listen and check their answers.
Key 1 successful 2 much Soften 6 dangerous
too/enough
PRE-TEACHING Recycle and practise the past simple of be in the context of days, dates and weather. Ask questions: What day was it yesterday? What was the date? etc. Students discuss the sentence and say whether they agree or not. This could be done in pairs first and then as a class discussion. Ask for examples of 'simple' inventions. Students work with a partner and discuss why the bicycle was a successful invention. They should list its advantages/disadvantages to feed back to the class.
24 Point to the photo of Rob Marte! and read the rubric with the class. Play the recording for students to listen and answer the question.
Because the bicycle is a very successful invention.

25 Students listen to Rob and make a list of the adjectives he uses. The listening is short, so play the recording more than once, to give students time to write down all the adjectives.

bicycle - a very successful invention. Any ideas why? What are the main advantages of bikes? They don't cost much. OK. They're not complicated. They're easy to use, yeah. Not too easy when you're going uphill! No, that's true. Let's say 'simple'. Running costs are low. OK, yeah. Very cheap to run. They don't often break down. Yeah. Reliable. They're safe. Well ... They're not too dangerous. OK. So, a successful invention, for all those reasons. And, with modern bikes, we have a good example of using the latest materials for a design that's over a hundred years old.
brainstorm on very successful products and products that have failed. Point to the photo of the Sinclair C5 and see if students know what it is. Ask if it looks useful. Students then read the text to find out if the C5 was a success. With weaker groups, do this with the class.
Key No, the Sinclair CS was a failure. Students then consolidate the past simple of be. They need to refer to information in the text.
Key 1 was
2 wasn't
3 were
4 weren't
be: past simple Point out that there are only two positive forms of the verb be in the past (was/were) and only two negative forms (wasn't/weren't). Grammar reference ... > SB Page 108, Section

So, when's the best time to meet, for you? I'm free next week. Um ... I can't make it next week. I'm ... I'm busy all week. The week after's OK for me. The week after. What about Monday? Monday, December the twelfth? Yes, that's OK for me. In the morning? Yeah. Half past nine? Nine thirty? Yeah, that's fine. OK. Monday, December the twelfth at nine thirty, then. And can you send me an agenda? Yes, I'll write an agenda this morning, and send it to you this afternoon. Excellent. OK, so I look forward to receiving that, and I'll see you on the twelfth. OK. I look forward to seeing you then. OK. Bye. Bye.
Divide the class into pairs and each pair into A and B. Give them time to look at their different pages. Summarise the scenario by telling them that Student A wants to visit a company to make a presentation. He/She phones the sales manager (Student B), and makes arrangements for the visit. Student A starts and should make notes of what they agree. Demonstrate the start of a phone call with a student before students do the role play in pairs. Monitor and support them during the conversation. After the pair work choose one or two pairs to do the phone call for the class. Finally, pairs work together to write an emait from the sales manager confirming the arrangements made on the phone. Refer students to email b, on SB page 32 as a template. Afterwards one or two students could read out the email to the class. To personalise the language of the unit, students think of an em ail they wrote recently to confirm arrangements and write it in English. This could be done as a homework assignment.
rI Students check their answers by referring to the transcript on SB page 118. You could conclude by playing the recording once more, for them to listen and read through the whole dialogue.

Transcript Interviewer What do you think about the locationof the resort,near Berlin? Well, the reasonit's thereis, simply, Caroline becausetherewas alreadya dome there. TropicalIslandsResortdidn'tbuild the dome.They bought it, for quitea low price.A company calledCarpolifter built the dome as a factory,to make big airships.But Cargolifter went out of businessand had to sellthed om e.So TropicalIslandsbought it and ... so they had ver ylo w co nstr uctio ncosts. lnterviewer So, do you think the resort'llbesuccessful in the long term? Possibly.I think it'll probably be quite Caroline popular in the short term ... in the first few months.I think a lot of people'11 probablycome to havea look ... they'll want to seewhat it's like. After that,it dependswhat they think of it. lnterviewer Some people say this resort won't help to make forecastsfor other resortsbecause therewas no needto build a dome. Do you agreewith that? Carolíne Um ... no . I think it'll help a lot.Definitely . The construction costs aren'tdifficult to calculate.The difficultquestionis, what sort of peoplewillvisit the dome?I'm sure it'll be popular with familiesrvithyolrng children,for example.So the project'll be good for gettinginformationabout the market. !nterviewer Do you think someonewill build another dome like this somervhere,one day? It'spossible,yeah.Maybe there'sa huge Caroline market for thern.I mean, it's not a completelynew idea.There'salreadya dome like this one in /apan.

Transcript Interviewer
Also write two columns to record reasons For and Against. Refer students to the photos of Virgin Galactic. Ask them what they know about the Virgin group. Do they know any other Virgin companies? Do they know the name of the owner? What does the company do/sell? (For information see www.virgingalactic.com) First give students time to read the sentences about the text, and check they understand them. Then students can read the article independently or, with a weaker class, go through together as a class. Then students decide which sentences match the company's objectives.

Teaching notes
Do you think we'll see a space tourism industry in the next ... five years? Is that realistic? I think so, yeah. I'm not sure how big it'll be. It all depends how much it costs. You know, if a flight costs ... under fifty thousand dollars, I think there'll be a lot of demand. If tickets cost over five hundred thousand dollars, very few people will buy them. Obviously, it'll be expensive. The question is, how expensive? Some people say two hundred thousand dollars is a realistic price. Mmm ... well, that's probably about right for a short-term objective. In the long term, I think the cost will need to be less than that. Probably less than half that. What do you think space tourists will want? What sort of experience? Urn '" I think they'll want ... I think it has to be a real space trip. If it's too short, then people won't be happy. I don't think it needs to last for hours, but a couple of minutes won't be enough. It has to be worth the money. What do you think it will take to really make space tourism take off? If somebody shows that it's possible, for a reasonable price, I think that'll be the start. If the first company is successful, a lot of others will follow. And, obviously, the top priority is safety. That's the big challenge - to show that it's safe.

Transcrípt So, first,let'slook at our presentadvcrtisingstratecy. How arewe promotingthe brand at the monrcnt?As you know, we advertisein the press-. most of clur press ads are in magazinesread by the eighteento twenty-four agegroup.We also use advertson billboards.We occasionallyr,rse TV commercials.And, of course,we marketthe brand with sponsorshipin sports- we sponsorbasketball,snowboardingand surfing.

P a s s i v ep: r e s e nst i m p l e ,p a s ts i m p l e
At the moment,our spendingon advertisingis hiqh as a percentageof sales.The reasonfor that is the cost of TV commercials.But the problem is,to make TV conrrncrcials work, you needa lot of them.A lot morc than we haveat present.Norv,obviouslyrvedon't lravethe budsct íortl-rat. So,in my opinion,TV commercialsarenot the right strategyfor Sway.

Mike Absolutcly.It'sall aboutprocedures,in fact.Pilotslnust know exactlywhat to dcr in allsituations. !nterviewer Obviouslyyou needa lot of experience. Mike Y es ... t o e e ta n a i r l i n ep i l o t' sl i c e nccvo u needa rninimum numberof hours flying time. Yru must haveat leastone thousand fivc hunclredhours. And you must be at leastturcnty-three yearsold. Obviously, most professionalpilotsare a lot older than that. Interviewer Sure.And do all pilotshaveto be ableto speakEnglish?Is thata requirement? Mike Yes- to fly internationally. lnterviewer What are the main safetyproceduresyou havc to follow? Are therecertainthings thatare especiallyimportant? We havc a lot of checklists.Tl-rereare Mi ke thingsyou must alwayscheck beforeeach flight.\'ou mustn't take off untilyou've checkecleverythinc.The first thing is. you walk around the plane,outside, and check that ... you knou,,nothing'sbroken or ... cracked. Interviewer That thcrc are no cracksin thc winss! Mike Actuaily, most planeshavecracksin their rvings!Very,very small ones.It'sperfectly safe. lnterviewer Right!And apparently, yolr can still land if an enginebreaksdown,can'tyou?
You can takeoJJii an enginebreaks down. If it happensa fervsecondsbeforetake-ofí um ... if you'reabovea certainspeed,the procedureis,yon nlustn'ttry to stop, becausethe runrvayisn'tlong enough.So you take off, fly around the airport, and tl'rcnland again.

people,so we haven'tmade very good progressthere.We've onlyfoundone technicianso far (we need anothertwo),and she hasn'tstartedwork yet - she's startingnext Monday. Thatmeans we'retwo weeks behind
schedulewithlT. I'vewrittento Danielain Zurichto ask her if she can send us someonefrom theofficethere.She hasn'trepliedyet.l'llgive hera call latertoday. Our new sales repAnna is doingverywell.So far,she's been to Bangkok,Manila,Jakarta, H o n gK o n g ,a n d h a s j u s tg o n et o S e o u l .S h e ' s o n l yb e e n h e r e fourweeks and she's alreadyflownto halfof the citiesin Asia! Itcertainlyhasn'ttaken her longto make a start.She's sent me a few textmessagesto say her meetingshave gone well.She's seen about20 clients so far.And she's also done a big presentation at the FTO tradefair in Hong Kong. i
i So, in general,I thinkthingsare goingwell.We can stillopen the officeon schedule,if we can solve the problemwiththe lT people.I'llsend another progressreportnextweek. Best regards, Andy Pre s s2 0 0 6 PHO T O CO P IAB@ L EC a m b r i d g U e n i v e rs i ty
