11BOOK NINE REVIEW THREE
N:  Review Three. For this lesson,
  you'll need a pencil and a
  piece of paper.
  Listen to this lecture about the
  history of the computer. Don't
  write anything yet. Just listen.
F:  The inventor of the modem
  computer was an English
  mathematician, Charles
  Babbage. He invented a machine
  in 1832 which had most of the
  features of a modem computer.
  Unfortunately, people weren't
  interested in it because it was too
  complicated.
M:  The first successful mechanical
  computer was built in 1944 by an
  American, Howard Aiken. Two
  years later, a new type of
  computer was built with
  electronic parts called valves.
F:  Modem computers use
  microchips instead of valves.
  These microchips are tiny but
  very efficient.
N:  Now take your pencil and a piece
  of paper. You will hear the
  lecture again. After each
  important group of words, there
  will be a pause. Don't write every
  word you hear, just the
  important facts, like names and
  dates and why a person or thing
  is important. Ready? Let's begin.

13BOOK NINE LESSON TEN
N:  Welcome to Lesson Ten. Sam
  Finch and Maria are at the
  studio. They are talking about
  changes at WEFL. Listen to their
  conversation. Listen carefully for
  sentences that begin with the
  words if or even if. How many
  times do you hear the word if?
  Let's listen.

  to spend on "Hello
  America," what changes
  would you make?
MARIA:  A million dollars?
SAM:  How about the furniture? If
  you had a million dollars,
  would you buy new
  furniture?
MARIA:  New furniture? No. We just
  bought these chairs last
  year. Even if I had a million
  dollars, I wouldn't change
  them. I like these chairs.
SAM:  Who selected them?
MARIA:  I did.


181
  SAM:    How about the colors?
      Would you change the
      colors of the set?
  MARIA:  The colors. I wouldn't
      change the colors. These
      colors are good for Jake and
      Connie. We selected these
      colors on purpose.
.....  SAM:    How about the carpeting?
  MARIA:  If I were making changes, I
      wouldn't spend money on
      new carpeting. No one
      really sees it. If I had a
      million dollars, I'd give
      everyone on the staff a raise.
  N:  OK. If you had a million dollars
    for every time you heard the
    word if in the conversation
    between Maria and Sam, how
    much money would you have?
  F:  Five million dollars.
  N:  That's a lot of money. Now

  N:  Good. Now you hear. . .
  F:  If I had a million dollars, I'd give
    everyone on the staff a raise.
  N:  And I say, "At WEFL." So you
    say. . .
  M:  If I had a million dollars, I'd give
    everyone at WEFL a raise.
  N:  I say, "Buy everyone a new car. "
    And you say. . .
  F:  If I had a million dollars, I'd buy
    everyone a new car.
  N:  Ready! Let's begin.
  F:  If I had a million dollars, I'd give
    everyone on the staff a raise.

N:  Were a millionaire.
F:  If I were a millionaire, I'd travel
  around the world.
N:  Give you everything.
M:  If I were a millionaire, I'd give
  you everything.
N:  All right, now let's listen to
  some more of the conversation
  between Maria and Sam. Sam
  asks Maria for some advice about
  . . . what? What does Sam want
  advice about?
SAM:  Maria, I want to ask you for
  some advice.
MARIA:  Yes?
SAM:  Remember that station in
  California I told you about?
MARIA:  Sure.
SAM:  Well, the owner called me
  yesterday. He's ready to sell.
MARIA:  Great.
SAM:  Yes, but his price is very
  high. Maria, do you think I
  should buy that station?
MARIA:  Yes, I do. But if I were you,
  I'd make a lower offer.
SAM:  I don't think he'll accept a
  lower offer.
MARIA:  Then if I were you, I'd pay
  his price. It's a very good
  station. In a few years, it'll
  be very big. I wouldn't miss
  this chance to buy it.
N:  OK, what does Sam want Maria's
  advice about?
M:  Buying the station in California.
  He wants her advice about
  buying the station in California.
N:  Now listen and repeat.
F:  if I were you
  I'd make a lower offer
  If I were you, I'd make a lower
  offer.
  If I were you, I'd make a lower
  offer.
  if I were you
  I'd pay his price
  If I were you, I'd pay his price.
N:  Now you hear. . .
M:  Should I make a lower offer?
N:  And you say. . .
F:  If I were you, I'd make a lower
  offer.
N:  You hear. . .
M:  Should I pay his price?
N:  And you say. . .
F:  If I were you, I'd pay his price.
N:  OK? Here we go.


   
M:  Should I make a lower offer?
F:  If I were you, I'd make a lower
  offer.

F:  If I were you, I'd pay his price.
M:  Should I sell my share of WEFL?
F:  If I were you, I'd sell my share of
  WEFL.
M:  Should I tell the staff?
F:  If I were you, I'd tell the staff.
M:  Should I call a meeting for
  tonight?
F:  If I were you, I'd call a meeting
  for tonight.
M:  Should I offer them a million
  dollars?
F:  If I were you, I'd offer them a
  million dollars.
M:  Should I wait a few months?
F:  If I were you, I'd wait a few
  months.
N:  Sam is still asking Maria for
  advice about the station in
  California. Listen for the things
  Maria tells Sam not to do.
SAM:    If I bought this station, how
    could I improve the show?
MARIA:  If I were you, I wouldn't
    make any changes at first.
    I'd wait a few months.
SAM:    You would?
MARIA:  Yes. I'd spend some time at
    the station. I'd follow the
    ratings. Then, after I
    learned everything about the
    show, I'd think about
    changes.
SAM:    Would you hire new people?
MARIA:  No, I wouldn't hire new
    people at first. I wouldn't
    fire anyone. I'd wait.
SAM:    Good advice, Maria. So, if
    you were me, you would buy
    the new station.
N:  What does Maria tell Sam not to
  do? 
M:  She tells him not to make any
  changes, not to hire or fire
  anyone.
N:  Now listen and repeat.
F:  I wouldn't make
  I wouldn't make any changes
  if I were you
  If! were you, I wouldn't make
  any changes.
  If I were you, I wouldn't make
  any changes.
  I wouldn't hire
  I wouldn't hire new people
   
182

 
  if I were you
  If I were you, I wouldn't hire
  new people.
  If I were you, I wouldn't hire
  new people.
N:  OK. Let's practice giving advice
  using the negative form. You
  hear.. .
M:  Would you make any changes?
N:  And you say. . .
F:  No. If! were you, I wouldn't
  make any changes.
N:  You hear. . .
M:  Would you hire new people?
N:  And you say. . .
F:  No. If I were you, I wouldn't
  hire new people.
N:  Ready? Here we go.
M:  Would you make any changes?
F:  No. If I were you, I wouldn't
  make any changes.
M:  Would you hire new people?
F:  No. If I were you, I wouldn't hire
  new people.
M:  Would you sell your share of
  WEFL ?
F:  No. If I were you, I wouldn't sell

  deal?
F:  No. If I were you, I wouldn't be
  worried about this deal.
M:  Would you continue this
  exercise?
F:  No. If! were you, I wouldn't
  continue this exercise.
N:  OK, let's move on. In this
  lesson, you have heard the
  expression to hire people, which
  means to give them a job, and to
  fire people, which means the
  opposite: to dismiss them from
  their job. The boss usually
  decides who to hire and who to
  fire. Here are some short
  statements made by people who
  are employed at KELT. If you
  were the new boss of KELT,
  which ones would you fire? Listen.
TOM:  My name is Tom Malek. I'm
  thirty-five years old. I have an
  M.A. in journalism from
  Columbia University and have


 
  worked as a writer at KELT for
  three years. I'm always on time
  and have never missed a day of
  work. My health is excellent.
  I'm not married. I live with my
  friend Greg and my dog,
  Charlie.
N:  If you were the boss at KELT,
  would you fire Tom?
BETH:  Hi. I'm Beth Smith. Not
  everybody likes me here at
  KELT. Some of the members
  of the staff are jealous because
  I'm such a good worker. I
  always look terrific, as you can
  see. Sometimes I type a letter
  or two, lick envelopes, and
  answer the phone. I'm very
  good at answering the phone
  - it's not an easy job, you
  know. But really, most of the
  time I just try to look good
  and stay out of trouble. Oh, I
  never come in on Tuesdays
  and Thursdays. I have to
  spend quality time with my
  cat.
N:  How about Beth? Would you fire
  her?
BOB: The name's Bob, Bob Conte.
  I've been at KELT since it
  began. I'm the janitor here. I
  know everything about this
  station. When the boss wants
  to find out something about
  someone, he calls me. Yes, sir.
  You see, I spend a lot of time
  at the coffee machine. I
  pretend to clean the floor, but
  actually I listen to what people
  say. It's been hard work, but
  it's paid off. You want to know
  anything, anything at all,
  about the other employees
  around here, just come to old
  Bob.
N:  And finally, Bob Conte, the
  janitor. If you were the boss at
  KELT, would you fire Bob?
  This is the end of Lesson
  Ten.

04BOOK HINE LESSON THREE

N:  Lesson Three. Listen to this
  conversation that takes place
  in the gift shop of the
  Stamford Nature Center. Notice
  when the words make and do are
  used.
F:  Good morning, young man. How
  can I help you?
M:  I'm looking for information
  about how people lived on
  American farms one or two
  hundred years ago.

 
F:  What exactly do you want to
  know?
M:  I want to know how they made
  their clothes and how they made
  their meals.
F:  Well, they had to make a fire
  before they could do their
  cooking. Say, are you doing a
  composition for school?
M:  Well, I'm making plans to write
  a report on early American life.
  Maybe you could do me a favor.
  Could you help me do these
  exercises in my history book for
  school?
F:  Sorry, I'm not a teacher. I just
  work in the gift shop. But I can
  help you do your shopping if you
  want. . . Oh, I guess I could
  help you make an appointment
  to see the director of the
  museum. And maybe he could
  help you.
M:  Gee, thanks.
N:  Now listen and repeat.
M:  to make clothes
  make their clothes
  How did they make their
  clothes?
  to make meals
  make their meals
  How did they make their meals?
  to make a fire
  they make a fire
  How did they make a fire?
  to make plans
  making plans
  Are you making plans?
  to make a reservation

  Are you doing a composition for
  school?
  to do a favor
  do me a favor
  Would you do me a favor?
  to do exercises
  doing these exercises
  Are you doing these exercises?
  to do shopping
  doing your shopping
  Are you doing your shopping?
N:  Now listen to the cues and make
  a question using either make or
  do. For example, you hear. . .

169

M:  Are you … these exercises.
N:  And you say…
F:  Are you doing these exercises?
N:  Or you hear…
M:  How did they… a fire.
N:  Are you say…
F:  How did they make a fire?
N:  Ready? Let’s begin.
M:  Are you … these exerdises.
F:  Are you doing these exercises?
M:  How did they …a fire.
F:  How did they make a fire?
M:  Are you… plans.
F:  Are you making plans?
M:  How did they… the cooking.
F:  How did they do the cooking?
M:  Are you … a reservation.
F:  Are you making a reservation?
M:  How did they… their meals.
F:  How did they make their meals?
M:  Are you … a composition
F:  Are you doing a composition?
M:  How did they … their clothes.
F:  How did they make their clothes?
M:  Are you … the shopping .
F:  Are you doing the shopping?
M:  Would you … me a favor.
F:  Would you do me a favor?
N:  Would you do me a favor? You can also say, “Would you do a favor for me?” they both mean the same thing. But remember that we don’t say, “Would you do a favor? You must always mention the person who receives the favor. For example, we say, “Would you do my friend a favor?” or “ Would you do a favor for my friend?” Let’s practice these forms. When you hear a noun or a pronoun, use it in a question beginning with would you do…? For example, you hear…
F:  Steven.
N:  And you say…
F:  Would you do Steven a favor?
N:  Or you say…
M:  Would you do a favor for him?
N:  Ready? Let’s begin.
F:  Steven
M:  Would you do Steven a favor?
F:  For him
M:  Would you do a favor for him?
F:  His father
M:  Would you do his father a favor?
F:  For his wife
M:  Would you do a favor for his wife?
F:  Fir his baby
M:  Would you do a favor for his baby?
F:  Us
M:  Would you do us a favor?

N:  Now listen to this conversation between Connie and the assistant director of the Stamford Nature Center. They‘re talking about a restored New England farm.
Connie:  I can see you did your best to keep the original features.
Bard:  Yes,we did.
Connie:  Why did you save the barn?
Bard:  It was too good to lose.
Connie:  It looks wonderful.
Bard:  We did our best to restore it. I think we did a good job fixing it.
N:  Now listen and repeat.
M:  To restore it
We did our best to restore it.
We did our best to restore it.
Fixing it
We did a good job foxing it.
We did a good job fixing it.
N:  Notice how we use an infinitive after to do one’s best for example, we say…
M:  I did my best to finish the work.
F:  He did his best to arrive on time.
N:  But after to do a good job ,we use the gerund, or the –ing form, of the verb.for example, we say…
M:  You did a good job building that house.
F:  She did a good job planning that party.
N:  Now you ‘re going to hear a cue like this one…
F: I did you best… arrive on tine.
N:  Are you say…
M:  I did my best to arrive on time.
N:  But if you hear…
F:  You did a good job… build that house.
N:  You say…
M:  You did a good job building that house.
N:  All right, Let’s begin.
F:  I did my best… arrive on time.
M:  I did my best to arrive on time.
F:  You did a good job… build that house.
M:  You did a good job building that house.
F:  She did a good job… plan that aprty.
M:  She did a good job planning that party.
F:  I did my best …finish the work.
M:  I did my best to finish the work.
F:  We did our best… restore the farm.
M:  We did our best to restore the farm.
F:  We did a good job… fix it.
M:  We did a good job fixing it.
N:  And you probably did a good job finishing this lesson.
This is the end of Lesson Three.
