- Recently, my husband has given me an unusual present. It was an excursion. - Wow, not bad, ha? Let me guess! Did you go to San Francisco? - No, no, much better. The excursion was through my native city, where I have already lived for 20 years. - Ok. Now I don't understand a thing. What? - The thing is that we were going along the streets I see every day, but that time I was blindfolded. That's funny, but it was a real eye-opener for me! - For instance‌ - For instance, that was the first time I noticed that two acacias grow right near our parking lot! And they smell gorgeous, but I was always too busy looking how awfully our neighbour parked, so I never noticed them. - That's interesting! Tell me more. - For the first time I didn't focus on traffic jams, and I heard how happy kids were making fast steps on the sidewalk returning home after school. Daniel was telling me how a street vendor was feeding a homeless dog and how impatient was the man with flowers at the cash machine. I liked the city I heard more than the city I saw every day. We had a great time at the grocery shop, I touched cool vegetables in the middle of a hot day and I guessed their color. There were some places I recognized immediately, for example, an old library, it smelled like nothing else. I recognized one underpass as well because of my favorite street musician who has been playing here for two years. But there was one place I recognized because of its silence – a huge old temple in the city centre. When we started running into people I understood we were in the department store. It was interesting even without shop windows! - Did you go to the suburbs? - Suburbs? Are you kidding me? It would be too cruel! - We explored only the downtown. The court, the House of Parliament. When I was too tired, we took a double-decker bus. 9
- Wow… - Although, I would say it was not the most interesting thing. The real challenge was when I had to cross a busy intersection with my eyes closed just holding my husband's hand. But I passed this test for trust! - You know what? I hope you didn't throw your blindfold away. I guess, it's time to take my husband for such an excursion. He really needs to pass the test for trust… - Ok, but, please, make sure when you cross an intersection there is a pharmacy close to it. - Ok, you have just failed the trust test for me! © by Tsvitana Yakymenko https://www.enpodcast.com/podcasts/item/unusual-excursion-around-the-city/ 15.

All the symptoms look very dangerous, maybe, will you recommend me some good syrup or effective drops? - Ok, but tell me some details, please. - I feel dizzy all the time, once I even fainted at work. My secretary had to pour cold water right on my expensive Gucci suit. - Did somebody take your pulse? - Yes. If you examine my chest, you will hear that my heart is throbbing! - Have you ever had problems with you blood pressure? - No, doctor.

I lost 5 kilos and I'm so skinny now that even some big crow can steal me. - Does anything else disturb you? - Yes, sure it does! I've got aching muscles, and I feel so weak that even my legs tremble. - Go on. - I sleepwalk as well, and my lungs don't work properly. I can hardly breathe. 14
- It seems to me, I'm close to solving the mystery, but can you recall any especially strange symptoms? - Yes, I can. I've got a few. A have a fever every time I see something red and my heels don't touch the ground, I feel as if I had a pair of wings behind me. - Oh, that makes sense. - What? Why are you smiling, doctor? - Your disease is really contagious, very contagious. - So, should I take some pills? Or maybe just painkillers? Is this some new epidemic of flu or pneumonia? - No, no. This disease is veeery old. And here is your prescription. - What? ‘To sleep and to buy some flowers for a person you are madly in love with'?

4. Read and listen to the podcast. Work in pairs. Think of a subheading for each paragraph. When you're a young guy who's in shape, middle age can seem like a long way off. But once you hit 30, the bad habits you didn’t kick during your 20s can take a toll on every part of your life. Make a few small changes now!
1. ____________________________ We all know that our lives consist of different stages we should pass through. Each of these stages demands certain development from a person. We don't have the same mindset we had when we were teenagers and we don't have the same mindset now, when we are about to reach the wonderful age of 30. Unfortunately some people refuse to grow up. They see this natural process as something intimidating, as if they are losing something. It's not true! We don't lose anything, but instead achieve a new level of understanding and gain new experience. By the age of 30 you should understand certain things, like who you are and what you want in life. You are responsible for your achievements and failures, and nobody else. You should be able to give up certain habits and control your reactions to situations that take place in your life. Therefore, I'd like to present some examples of things You should better stop doing by the time you turn 30. So let's get started. 2. ____________________________ You are responsible for your financial well-being, so it's time to stop calling your parents and constantly asking if you can borrow some money. It's immature to 25
point fingers and blame others, like your own parents or friends, for your problems. You are an adult and you are responsible for everything that happens to you.You shouldn't look back, regretting the things you have or haven't done. You should always look ahead and doggedly strive toward your goals. 3. ____________________________ You shouldn't waste your money on alcohol and partying, but you should instead spend it sensibly. And speaking about partying: never brag on social media about how drunk you were, No matter how old you are. It doesn't create a good impression. And don't engage in online arguments or respond to every negative comment. Adults don't do that. Stop looking for other people's approval. You're not a kid anymore. You don't need to live up to others' expectations of you. It's your life. Choose your friends carefully. Stop maintaining friendships with people who are a bad influence just because you're scared to cut them out of your life. 4. ____________________________ You shouldn't refuse to do something just because it seems difficult. Just do it! You'll never know if you can, unless you try.You mustn't compare yourself to others or worry about what other people think of you. This feature is peculiar to teenagers. Never stalk your ex on social media and don't envy the lives of other people. You have your own life. and don't wait for things to happen: make them happen. You are the creator of your own happiness. 5. ____________________________ Dressing like a teenager and boasting about expensive things, like clothes or a new iPhone, on social media, in order to get attention is silly. It's not appropriate for an adult. Don't try to be perfect all the time. Stop beating yourself up. Allow yourself to make mistakes. Don't take life or yourself too seriously. And most importantly, never ignore your relationships with people who care about you and are always there to help. Life isn't worth a thing without your family and friends. Keep that in mind!
26
6. ____________________________ And one more thing: Don't think that your life should be perfect now that you are almost 30. Remember that success is a long-lasting process made out of failures. So be patient, dogged, and do your best and you will achieve everything you want. Good luck! Š Olga Savytska https://www.enpodcast.com/podcasts/item/men-of-thirty-dont-do-/ 5.

What tip will you use if you have to reduce the your expenses? Why pay more than you need to on travel? Listen to our podcast, and find out how to cut costs and travel cheaper!
There is a prevailing opinion that, travelling is very expensive and not everybody can afford it. It's not necessarily so. If you spend a fortune on vacation abroad, it won't mean you have more fun than someone who spends less. There are a lot of easy ways to enjoy a quality vacation without spending a ton of money. I'd like to bust the myth that traveling is a great luxury and give you certain tips for turning any trip into both affordable and enjoyable activity. Why do you think all those popular spots are so expensive to visit? This is because they are popular and everyone goes there. Of course, nothing can substitute Rome, for example. But there are many other less expensive cities in Europe that are also very beautiful and exciting. Try to travel in the shoulder seasons, I mean just before or after the peak season. Shops are open, the prices are lower, there are fewer tourists and the weather is still very nice. Book at the last minute. This tip doesn't apply to airfare, because it is the most expensive at the last minute. I'm talking about cruises and tours. This way you'll easily get 25% off and save on your budget. The perfect time to do that is either a couple of weeks before you are planning to depart or a year or even more in advance. The companies don't want to run a half empty tour so they make 35
reductions. There's no need to stay at big expensive hotels paying $200 per night when you can get the same thing for $50 if you choose more reasonable options. For instance, mom-and-pop hotels. These small family-run hotels are way cheaper, cozier and have more personality to them. Another great option is house-sit. You get free lodging in exchange for taking care of someone's home while they are away. A small disadvantage of this option is that, the length of your stay depends on the owners. If you travel with family, apartment rental will be the best option. You get everything you need and pay half the price of a hotel room. Besides, you have a kitchen where you can cook for yourself and save on food costs. Food can become one of the most substantial expenses. Therefore, you can do some grocery shopping and cook on your own. You would reduce 70% of your food expenses. That's why I recommend staying in the place with kitchen facilities. Never eat in a tourist area. Sure, it's easier to have a bite near the attraction, but the prices there usually are up to 50% higher. On the side streets, where there are no tourists the food is better and you'll pay a local price instead of paying the tourist price. Taking free tours is also a great method to save money. Of course, you can pay a sightseeing service for the standard tour. But in the largest cities around the world there are free walking tours, where you can observe the best spots and learn a lot of interesting information about the culture and local customs. Moreover, you'll have a chance to get acquainted with many nice and intelligent people. You can also use the couch-surf web-site. Here you can connect with locals, who will be happy to show you around. It's a great way to make new friends. These tips will be useful in any country, no matter where you are going. So good luck and have a great trip! Š Olga Savytska https://www.enpodcast.com/podcasts/item/how-to-save-on-a-trip/

3. Read and listen to the podcast. Work in pairs. Think of a subheading for the paragraphs. Show me your home, and I'll tell you who you are. Or, just to be fair, tell me what your dream home is.
1 _______________________________ They say "Tell me who your friend is, and I'll tell you who you are", "Tell me what books you read, and I'll tell you what kind of person you are". But my favourite saying on this topic is "Show me your home, and I'll tell you who you are". Though I wouldn't like to be judged that way, because I might not be the only person whose home is somehow different from what he or she is dreaming about. 2 _______________________________ I wouldn't say that a person who lives in an inaccessible bothy in the woods with minimum of furniture and lots of greenery inside is actually a recluse. He doesn't necessarily avoid people, he might just be looking for some fresh air to breath and freedom to do whatever he wants and not to be judged by his neighbours. And a log cabin does not necessarily mean the person lives there alone. There is no bad home as long as somebody feels home there. Some people prefer quiet neighbourhoods and immense mansions, while others look for hectic places to live in, with narrow streets and bars bursting at the seams around. And from what I've seen, it's not always a question of how fat the wallet of an owner is. It's a question of choice. For instance, Montmartre is one of the noisiest areas in Paris, but the rent there is one of the highest in the city even for a decrepit musty studio apartment. And so is a rent in a quiet private
45
part of 16th Arrondissement, a district of Paris. Tastes differ, and something that's fitting for you may look quite undesirable for another person. Apostles of New-Age philosophy suggest that you should imagine your dreams in all the details to make them come true. So let me share with you the idea of my dream home. I would ideally have a big flat in the centre of a big city and a nice house with a panoramic view, for instance, on the seaside or the ocean coast. A secluded one if possible. Though with all that climate change thing and the tendency of natural disasters to threaten the coastal lines it might be very perilous. That's why I have a loft, that's my plan B. 3 _______________________________ My flat has very high ceilings, minimum four meters high because my place should be spacious. I'm not claustrophobic or something, I just like dancing and doing yoga at my place, and for that, my friends, I need some space. The huge windows stretching from the ceiling to the floor are free of any shutters or blinds to let the natural light fill the apartment, though some decorative drapes may suffice. Some part of the wooden parquet is covered with a carpet and lots of big cushions, but no tapestry of any sort on the walls because it frustrates me. The kitchen is big and with lots of crockery and flatware in the cupboards because I adore cooking. And if my kitchen happens to be connected to a living room there should be a cooker hood to take all the smells off the stove. A big, round dining table is a must! But if not, I can always go for an Asian style picnic on the floor of my living room in front of the windows. 4 _______________________________ There is no TV set, but a big library with my favourite books and one of the walls is white to project movies on in the rainy gloomy evenings. One of the walls is red just because it's my dream to have a red wall in my flat. And don't judge me, my favourite colour is blue, and has always been. I haven't quite decided yet on my bedroom,
46
but there definitely is a bed with bed linen of a good quality. As for flooring in places like kitchen, bathroom or toilet I prefer tiles to the lino. It feels spick and span to me that way. Bathtubs are not very eco-friendly from the point of view of water consumption. And even though I'd like to have one, I'll probably opt for a shower cabin in my apartment. Then I have a bathtub in my house on the seaside, of course. Actually, the same dreams I have about my cabin on the seaside. The most important is a view from my cabin's window that gives on the sea. That's probably as far as my imagination can go right now. But nothing makes me feel more at home than a sort of creative mess I make around. © Tanya Pekarchuk https://www.enpodcast.com/podcasts/item/no-place-like-home/ 4. Look through the text again.
