W：Did you have a good time on holiday?
M：Yes, we had a great time.
W：What did you do?
M：Well, on Monday, the weather was really good, so we went for a long walk near the sea. It was beautiful.
W：That sounds nice.
M：On Tuesday, we wanted to go up a mountain, but it was very rainy and windy, so we visited some museums. They were quite interesting. On Wednesday, we went shopping in the city. We bought lots of great things. We spent a lot of money.
W：Oh, dear! That always happens.
M：On Thursday we visited a lake. I wanted to go boating, but the water sports centre was closed.
So we just went swimming.
W：Really? Was the water cold?
M：Yes, it was a bit! On Friday we were quite tired, so we went to the beach and relaxed with a
book. And on Saturday we came home!
W：Well, it sounds like a great holiday.

W：Excuse me? Would you mind taking my picture?
M：Of course not. Is this your first time on the London Eye?
W：Yes, it’s a great view from up here.
M：Oh, would you like me to get St. James’ Park in the photo?
W：It doesn’t matter. Could you try to get as much of London in the background as possible before
we move down too much?
M：All right, I’ll do my best. I can get Westminster Abbey in nicely.
W：Is that the church with the round roof?
M：No, you’re thinking of St. Paul’s Cathedral. Westminster Abbey is a church where lots of
famous people are buried.
W：Really? Do you think you could take the photograph, now? Or we’ll lose the nice view.
M：Certainly. Let me see...
W：Look, just try to get a photo of the river and Big Ben.
M：You mean the tower that holds Big Ben?
W：Yes, that tall building over there.
M：The building you’re talking about is not Big Ben. Big Ben is just the bell which is inside the
tower, not the tower itself.
W：That’s very interesting, but can you take the photo, please?
M：And another thing...
W：Thanks a lot. I think I’ll just take the photo myself.

Welcome back. First here’s the traffic report every hour on the hour. It’s a busy day out on the roads. We have an accident on Central Street. There’s a bus on fire. Everybody is OK, but traffic is moving very slowly. A large group of people are standing in the middle of Oxford Street. They are standing in front of the cars, so traffic isn’t moving. The police are talking to them at the moment. Now I will tell you something about the accident on Hampton Road. There’s a lion---yes, I said a lion on Hampton Road. A lot of cars are moving slowly around it. It’s sitting in the middle of the road and looking at the cars. The police say that the lion escaped from the zoo. And we have a report coming in now from East London. There’s a big traffic problem. Someone is driving on the wrong side of the road. OK, that’s all for this report. Next comes more pop songs and the next traffic report updates at 11:00.
