- A (I doubt local people feel they are losing their national identity just because a fast food outlet has opened up.)
- A (And anyway, the nice thing about it is that in many places, these chains have to change the food they sell to suit the local culture. So there is a lot of give and take going on and you still get cultural diversity to some extent.)

Son: Dad. Can I go outside to play?
Dad: Well, did you get your Saturday's work done?
Son: Ah, Dad. Do I have to?
Dad: Well, you know the rules (правила). No playing until the work is done.
Son: So, what is my work?
Dad: Well, first you have to clean the bathroom including the toilet. And don't forget to scrub (почистить, отскрести) the bathtub.
Son: No, I want to do the family room.
Dad: Well, okay, but you have to vacuum the family room and the hall, and be sure to dust (удалять пыль с помощью тряпки или пылесоса) everything. Oh, and don't forget to wipe (протереть) the walls and clean the baseboards (плинтуса). [Okay.] And after that. [Oh, no.] Next, sweep (подметать) and mop (мыть с помощью швабры) the kitchen floor and be sure to polish the table in the living room.
Son: Okay. Okay.
Dad: And make your bed and pick up all your toys and put them away. And...
Son: More?
Dad: Yeah. And then, how about going out for lunch and getting a big milk shake (коктейль), but you probably don't want to do that.
Son: No, No. I want to.
Dad: Okay. While you're doing your work, I'll be out in the yard raking (работать граблями, сгребать) leaves and pulling weeds (полоть сорняки).

Father: Time to eat!
Daughter: Coming. Oh, I'm starving (умирать от голода). [ Good, good. ] Oh yuck! (Фу!) What's that?
Father: Ah, now don't complain!
Daughter: But what is it, and where is mom?
Father: Now, mom put me in charge of dinner because she's not feeling well tonight.
Daughter: But what is it... and that smell (запах)!
Father: It's pizza. I just followed an old family recipe here, and...
Daughter: Let me see that... Oh, Dad. [ What? ] You're missing a page (не хватает страницы)!
Father: Oh, uh, well, uh... well I couldn't find the second page of the recipe, but don't worry. I have plenty of experience around the house. Plenty of experience cooking.
Daughter: That's not what mom says.
Father: Well, wait, wait, here let me try a piece first. Here, let me, let me cool this off here. Ohhh, yeah. Oh, this is great stuff.
Daughter: Yeah right. Why are you making that face?
Father: Well, well, it's just, just a little rich (жирновато) for me. That's all.
Daughter: Let me try it Dad. Uh. Dad. You put a little too much salt in it and besides it's burned. [ Well... ] And what's that?
Father: Oh, well, well, that's just part of my own adaptation (усовершенствование) to the recipe. I added some pumpkin (тыква).
Daughter: Oh, not another one of your surprises. Pumpkin doesn't go on pizza!
Father: Well, okay, well, so what? Uh, what do we do now?
Daughter: Well, how about some cold cereal... You can't mess up (здесь: сленг «облажаться», опозориться) on that, Dad.

(I = Interviewer; P = Paulo, G = Gisela, A = Armelle, L = Luigi)
| I: | Do you like your city? |
| P: | Oh yes, I feel lucky to be living in a city that's so big and exciting. I love looking out of my apartment window over the high-rise buildings. |
| I: | What's the city centre like? |
| P: | Some people say it's too noisy and crowded, but I love that. There's always something to see and do. We also have the most famous beach in the world - Copacabana Beach. Then, on the other side of the city there are beautiful mountains. The highest one is called Corcovado, and it has the famous statue of Christ. If you look down at the city from there, the view is spectacular. |
| I: | What's the weather like? |
| P: | It's great most of the time. The only time I don't like Rio much is in the summer: it's too hot and humid. |
| I: | Do you like your city? |
| G: | Yes, it's wonderful. I think my city has everything. |
| I: | What's the architecture like? |
| G: | It's a mixture of old and new with plenty of shops for everybody. The castle is the most famous monument, and at night it looks amazing. |
| I: | What's the nightlife like? |
| G: | It's a young city because of the university, so there are plenty of cheap restaurants and interesting cafes and bars. It's got a great nightlife. |
| I: | And what are the people like? |
| G: | Well, some people are a bit reserved, but in general they're really friendly. |
| I: | Where do you live? |
| A: | Well, I live in a small village with my parents. My grandparents live here too, and my aunts and uncles. In fact, I think I'm related to about fifty per cent of the people in my village. |
| I: | What's your village like? |
| P: | It's very pretty. The countryside is beautiful, and the air is lovely and clean. But it's too quiet. I find it so dull and boring here - there aren't any discos or cinemas. |
| I: | What are the people like? |
| P: | Oh, they're lovely, but there aren't many young people. I want to go and live in the city. Soon. |
| I: | What do you think of your city? |
| L: | It is a very special place. There is nowhere else in the world like my city - it's so romantic. |
| I: | What's the city centre like? |
| L: | The buildings are beautiful, and we have San Marco, one of the most famous churches in the world San Marco Square is wonderful, and during carnival in February Venice is the best place in the world to be. |
| I: | Do you like living here? |
| L: | No, I really hate living here. It's horrible. There are too many tourists everywhere. |
| I: | Oh dear. What are the shops like? |
| L: | Well, because of the tourists the shops are too expensive and the canals are dirty and polluted. My city is not big enough for all these people. Why don't they leave us in peace? |

Let's find out just how environmentally aware you are.
Question one. How many trees do you think it would take to offset the C02 emissions from a long distance flight? Well, it's estimated that for each mile or 1.6 km that a jet flies, half a kilo of C02 is added to the atmosphere. So a round trip of 10,000 miles would emit about one and a half tonnes of C02 per passenger. The amount of C02 a tree can absorb depends on factors such as its type, location and age. The company, Future Forests, says that, on average, it would take two trees 99 years to counter the effect of this trip, so the answer here is C.
Question two. What is the most environmentally friendly way to wash your clothes? Well, the solvents used by most dry cleaners are damaging to the environment. In a washing machine, the vast majority of the energy - about 90 per cent of it - goes into heating up the water, not running through the cycle. Washing clothes in hot water, even by hand, uses a lot of energy to heat the water. Keeping washing temperatures low and always washing a full load is the best policy. So the correct answer is C.
Question three. Do you need to always turn off your electric lights to save energy? It is a common myth that flicking the lights on and off uses more energy than leaving them on. In fact an ordinary bulb only has to be turned off for three seconds to outweigh the cost of turning it back on. For energy efficient and other fluorescent bulbs, this rises to five minutes. Energy efficient light bulbs use 75 per cent less energy than ordinary ones - so if you have those, but leave them on as you tidy - you'll probably still use less energy than if you switch your standard bulbs on and off. So the correct answer is B.
Question four. What is the most energy efficient way of cooking a baked potato? A microwave uses just a third of the electricity required to operate an electric oven, and of course the potato will take much less time to cook, so the correct answer is B.
Question five. What is the best way to help reduce your C02 emissions throughout the year? Well, it's estimated that one person taking the train for a year, rather than driving a car, would reduce their C02 emission total by 2.9 tonnes. Hanging out your washing rather than using a tumble dryer would cut C02 by 0.9 tonnes and working from home one day a week would cut 0.88 tonnes. So the correct answer is A.
