Текст аудирования:

Interviewer: Now, our next guest, Jane Hargreaves, works at Bradgrove Zoo and organises a volunteer programme there for teenagers each summer. Jane ...?

Jane: Hello, Brian.

Interviewer: So Jane, what exactly do your teen volunteers do?

Jane: Well, the volunteers mainly assist the zoo’s education department by doing what we call ‘interpreting’, which simply means speaking to the visitors of the zoo about conservation.

Interviewer: Don’t the teenagers need to be quite well informed in order to do that?

Jane: Indeed, but that’s why each volunteer has to attend a training programme at the zoo.

Interviewer: And how long does this training last?

Jane: Well, teens who’ve been a volunteer before just do a quick course that lasts for three days, but those who are volunteering for the first time attend a two week course. Generally, they spend a week and a half learning about the environment in various fun ways and then the last three days are spent learning games and activities for children.

Interviewer: That sounds great.

Jane: The teens usually really enjoy it. And not only that, but they acquire various new skills, such as communication skills and how to give an interesting presentation.

Interviewer: … and then, I gather they pass on the information they’ve learnt.

Jane: Exactly. The volunteers particularly enjoy teaching young visitors through games that they have learnt during their training. For example, we have created one game to explain recycling to children. It’s called ‘Toss it in’ where the participants are given different items of household rubbish which they have to throw into the correct bins. Oh, and while we’re on this topic, I’d also like to mention that local residents are encouraged to use the zoo as a drop-off point for all their used paper, mobile phones, bulbs - oh, and phonebooks, too. But they must always remember to take them out of their plastic bags before putting them in the green box provided.

Interviewer: That’s an excellent idea. So, tell me, Jane, is there anything else that the volunteers do?

Jane: Yes, they also actively participate in various conservation projects. Examples of projects are putting up nesting boxes for birds around the zoo and planting trees, flowers and plants.

Interviewer: But the volunteers don’t work on the same project all summer, do they?

Jane: Oh no, most certainly not. The teens work in various different teams, which is one of the main reasons why the volunteers find the programme so enjoyable. This, of course, not only enables them to make new friends, but also to develop their team-work skills.

Interviewer: So what should any teenagers listening who aren’t sure if they would like to become a volunteer or not do?

Jane: Well, probably the best thing is to take part in one of the zoo’s ‘volunteer safaris’ which are opportunities to visit the zoo for a day and see, first hand, what the volunteers do.

Interviewer: And when will the next one of these take place?

Jane: Well, usually they are organised once or twice from September to January and then about once a month until June. The next one will actually take place next week, but that’s fully booked, so the next one after that will be in May.

Interviewer: So any teens interested should book their place really soon?

Jane: Yes, definitely.

Interviewer: And are there any special requirements?

Jane: Yes, applicants must be at least 13 years old by 1st January and not older than 18 by 1st June of the year they will be volunteering. In exceptional cases, we may allow a 12-year-old to join the programme - if they have already had some previous experience working with animals, for example.

Interviewer: Any final comments, Jane?

Jane: Ermm ... well, I’d just like to add that apart from the fact that all volunteers are entitled to free zoo admission, the programme is an incredibly valuable experience. Oh, they also get a discount at the gift shop, too!

Interviewer: Jane, thank you so much for coming.
