S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Good afternoon and welcome to the City

0:04

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Museum of History.

0:05

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We're starting our tour right here in the lobby by the main entrance.

0:10

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

This room itself is of historical interest as it was the

0:14

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

first house ever built in the city.

0:16

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

You can see that a good deal has been added to it since then,

0:19

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

as the museum now contains several large galleries in addition to

0:23

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

the lobby.

0:24

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Moving straight ahead,

0:25

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we're now in the local history exhibit.

0:28

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Over here we have a display showing the founding of the city and

0:33

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

around the room you can see displays about various other historical events.

0:37

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

After you've enjoyed the displays in here,

0:40

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

you may follow me into the next room where we'll find a photograph gallery

0:44

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

filled with photos dating as far back as the 19th century.

0:48

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

They'll give you a good idea of how the appearance of our city has

0:52

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

changed over time.

0:53

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

On the other side of the gallery is the theatre.

0:56

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

I believe a film will be starting at 11pm.

0:59

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

That gives you plenty of time to look around first.

1:03

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

The price of the film,

1:04

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

of course, is included in the price of your entrance ticket.

1:07

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

You may also wish to visit the gift shop,

1:10

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

which is just beyond the theatre.

1:11

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

You can buy some simple snacks there as well as souvenirs of your

1:15

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

visit.

1:16

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

The gift shop looks out on the garden,

1:18

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

which is quite lovely this time of year,

1:20

S… Speaker 2 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

and you may want to enjoy your snacks out there.

1:29

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

As you know,

1:29

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we've been discussing for several months the best way to make use of the open

1:34

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

land on our club property.

1:35

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

This evening I'm happy to be able to share with you our new plan

1:39

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

for using this land.

1:41

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

If you'll just take a look at this map of the club.

1:44

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Over here is the clubhouse.

1:46

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We've decided to move the parking lot away from the building for several reasons.

1:51

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

For one thing,

1:52

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we think it should be more centrally located.

1:55

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

so we plan to make an area for parking cars over here,

1:58

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

on the other side of Centre Road,

2:00

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

just across Main Drive from the tennis courts.

2:03

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

You'll be happy to know that our plan includes a new swimming pool.

2:06

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We've decided to make use of this land right next to the clubhouse for that

2:10

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

purpose.

2:11

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

It'll be professionally landscaped and add to the beauty of that

2:15

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

area of the club.

2:16

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

This area here to the left of the lake is rather wild

2:20

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

and neglected, but it is a lovely spot we should take advantage of.

2:24

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

So we've decided to clear out all the brush and add some tables and

2:28

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

fire pits so members can enjoy outdoor meals while relaxing by

2:32

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

the lake.

2:33

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

The snack bar will remain where it already is.

2:37

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Across Main Drive from there is a large open space which

2:41

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we plan to develop into an area where children can play soccer.

2:44

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

And we'll probably also include a baseball diamond and some volleyball

2:49

S… Speaker 1 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

nets.

2:49

S… Speaker 3 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Talk 3

2:55

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

The Green Acres residential community is known for its convenient design,

3:00

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

as this map illustrates.

3:01

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Right here,

3:03

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

in the northwest corner of the map,

3:05

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

is the shopping complex.

3:06

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

It's conveniently placed close to most of the community's

3:10

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

residences.

3:11

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

So here,

3:12

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

right next to it,

3:13

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

are the apartment buildings.

3:15

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

And here,

3:16

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

just across Maple Avenue from the shopping complex,

3:19

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

are the single -family homes.

3:22

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Just to the south of these homes is the park,

3:25

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

a convenient recreation area for both children and parents.

3:30

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

And looking over the park,

3:31

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

just to its east,

3:33

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

is the school.

3:34

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

So shopping,

3:35

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

recreation and the school are all conveniently close

3:39

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

to the residences.

3:40

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

And if we look across Greenacres Street from the park,

3:44

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we'll find the library and just to the east of it,

3:48

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

the bank.

3:49

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We've installed traffic lights at all intersections to make crossing the

3:53

S… Speaker 4 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

streets safe for everyone.

3:55

S… Speaker 3 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Standing

4:00

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

here on the back porch of the mansion,

4:04

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

we have a good view of the grounds and can appreciate their beauty

4:08

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

and how well everything has been maintained.

4:11

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Directly in back of the house,

4:13

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

as you can see,

4:14

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

is a marble fountain,

4:15

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

which was imported from Italy in the 18th century.

4:19

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

There are lovely plantings all around it,

4:22

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

which include roses,

4:23

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

lilies and other fragrant flowers.

4:26

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

To the right of the fountain,

4:28

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

just behind that row of pine trees,

4:30

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

you can just make out a small building.

4:34

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

The gardener's cottage originally stood on that site.

4:37

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

But after it was torn down,

4:39

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

that small shed was erected in its place and is used

4:43

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

to store gardening tools,

4:45

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

lawnmowers and other outdoor equipment.

4:48

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Over to the left of the fountain,

4:50

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

you can see a footpath.

4:52

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

If you want to walk down it later on,

4:55

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

you'll find at the end a tiny lake filled with goldfish.

4:58

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

On the other side is a place where you can sit and rest and enjoy

5:02

S… Speaker 5 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

the scenery.

5:09

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Okay, here we all are in the parking lot,

5:12

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

and we'll be walking up to our camping area in a minute.

5:15

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We'll walk down this road here through the woods.

5:18

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Just past the woods on the left is where we'll find our tents,

5:22

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

all ready and waiting for us.

5:24

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Although we'll be sleeping in the great outdoors,

5:27

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

don't worry.

5:28

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We won't be living entirely without modern conveniences.

5:31

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

There are showers just across the road from our tents.

5:35

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

We'll be cooking all our meals over the fire pits near the tents.

5:38

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Just beyond the fire pits is a nice little pond.

5:42

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

So if anyone is up for a swim,

5:44

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

that's the place to go.

5:46

S… Speaker 7 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

I should warn you,

5:47

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

however, that the pond water is not potable.

5:50

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

I repeat,

5:51

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

don't drink the pond water,

5:53

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

as it will make you sick.

5:54

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

Drinking water is available near the showers,

5:57

S… Speaker 6 (Preparation-L7-U2-Listening-Audio-Pre-Ex2)

just across the road from the fire pits.
