Текст аудирования:
— Well, Dorothy, school is practically over. Any idea about what you’re going to do next?
— I hope to do modern languages in Manchester University. I’m taking my A level in French but in the future I’d like to study some oriental language as well, Chinese or Japanese. And you? What are your plans?
— Oh, I’m going to university after my gap year.
— Your gap year? Have you taken a gap year?
— Yes. I’ve always been keen on the idea of travelling. Last summer when I left school, I realized that a gap year was a good chance to do so.
— Where did you go? How long did you stay there?
— I spent eight months away altogether — four months in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam) , three months in Australia and then a final month back in Thailand.
— What made you choose that part of the world so far away from home?
— Southeast Asia has always interested me. No one from my family had ever been there so it seemed new and different. I was searching for something that wouldn’t be easy.
— What about your mum and dad? Did they support you?
— Actually it was hard saying goodbye — both for me and for my family — but they understood because going travelling was something I always talked about. I knew it would give me a lot of new experience, probably change me.
— Did it really happen the way you expected it to be?
— Travelling made me see the world entirely differently. It was like spending a year in the university of life.
— I’d like to spend a year abroad too after I’ve done one year at university. And I want to make myself useful during this year.
— In what way do you want to be useful?
— I thought I might teach English in a Chinese school.
— It’s a very good idea. I’m sure it will help you to widen your scope.
— And learn to be more independent. Though I’m certain I’ll miss my family and friends.
