class called Extreme Bootcamp.
For each question, fill in the missing
information in the numbered space.
Woman: Hi, everyone. I’d like to tell you about a new exercise class I’ve just tried. It’s called ‘Extreme Bootcamp’ and it’s hard
but great fun!
What does ‘bootcamp’ mean? It’s actually a word used by the army when they’re training new soldiers. It’s nothing to do with what’s on your feet. And believe me, it’s nothing like a camping trip either! It’s a short course of challenging physical training..
Most of us are used to exercising in the gym, with nothing but TV screens or other people to look at while we’re on the machines or whatever. But Extreme Bootcamp is different ’cos you do the class on a bridge. It goes over a river, so it’s nice to look at while you exercise.
You won’t like the sound of this, but the class meets at 6.30 am every weekday for a month. It’s only for an hour but class members do lots in that time, beginning with jogging to warm up.
After that there’s some weight lifting and jumping, and then you do some more relaxing exercises at the end. The clothes you should wear are pretty much the same as you’d wear for any other exercise class – so a T-shirt and shorts or a tracksuit is fine. Oh, and wearing trainers is a must, so do bring a good pair with you.
Bootcamp is good fun, I promise! If you’re interested in joining the next one, there’s a registration day on 17th September – though the first class won’t be until the 30th. The bootcamp’s run by Ellie Shawes and she can give you more information if you need it. Her surname’s spelt S-H-A-W-E-S, and you can contact her via the website. I’ve got her phone number too if you want it. OK, so has anyone got any questions?.

Mandy: Morning, everyone! Thanks for attending this training session at our new department store. You’ve all been offered jobs as sales assistants, so well done and welcome! My name’s Mandy Hickets – that’s H-I-C-K-E-T-S – and I’m your training manager.
I’ll tell you a bit about how the store’s organized. The top floor’s where the stock room is – that’s where everything’s kept before it goes out onto the shelves. The first floor’s mainly clothing, and the ground floor, where you’ll work, is where we sell things like
make-up and electrical items..
Most of you are part-time staff, which means you’ll work from Monday to Saturday, either in the mornings or the afternoons. Your rest day is Thursday. Full-time staff take either a Tuesday or a Wednesday off – you’ll find out which later today.
I know that some of you live out of town. There’s a regular train service as I’m sure you already know, but we also operate a bus service for those nearer by. There’s no charge for this. There’s also a staff car park, though you’ll need to pay a small monthly fee for this.
All staff get 25% discount on certain items and services. You could have your hair cut in our salon, for example, and you can use
the discount when the sales are on, too, which some stores don’t offer. I’m afraid there are no discounts on food, however. I believe you’ve already ordered your uniforms and you’ll be able to collect those at the end of today’s session. When you arrive on your first day, please go to the office, where you’ll pick up your ID card. We provide keys for lockers, where you can keep your personal items safe. These are already in the locker doors, ready for use.

Man: Welcome to The Film Review Programme! Today we’re reviewing some of this week’s new films.
Let’s start with this week’s likely hit, Jungle Fever. This is quite an unusual one! Some of you may remember last year’s TV documentary film about a family of tigers in India. Well, this is a cartoon based on that programme and I can report that it’s great fun for people of any age..
Some of you will be excited to know that actor Steve Wills is back on our screens! You’ll remember him as action hero Marty Kay, but in his new film, Call it, he actually plays a chef, working in an Italian pizza takeaway in New York City. Actor Jennifer Peckory plays his manager, Jo-Jo, and romance is in the air!
Don’t miss Swim!, a comedy which takes a look at learning to swim as an adult. It’s about a 20-year-old man who wants to join in with his friends when they swim in the lake near his home. So, he goes to the local pool to take lessons. Be prepared to laugh until it hurts!
And now it’s competition time, so I hope you’ve listened carefully and made some notes! If you want to enter this month’s competition, just go online and answer the ten questions in our quiz. Go to www dot movies dot co and select your answers.
