When I was 12, my parents moved out of London to a small village in Oxford.I was the only Asian girl in my school, and I suddenly felt a bit lonely.Luckily, I had a brilliant art teacher who encouraged me to go to art college.
However, on the day of my college interview in Bath, I woke up late.I left the house wearing two odd shoes and didn't notice that my bottle of chocolate milk had poured all over the painting in my bag.Then when I finally got to the station, I got on the wrong train.Who knows, if I had gone to Bath that day, I might have become a professional artist.But I went to Sweden instead.I told the woman next to me on the train about what had happened, and she suddenly cried with laughter.It turned out she was a producer of a comedy program on the radio.To cut a long story short, I got an invitation a week later to attend an interview for the show, and the rest, as they say, is history.I am very lucky my life has been full of happy accidents.Now I am in charge of a very popular TV comedy program.

Today, I will make a speech on zoos.Many people think zoos are cruel, and have no place in the modern world.It is my own opinion that zoos, although not perfect, do have a useful function.
Firstly, zoos are places of education.Zoos can help children to appreciate nature.Further more, research into animal behavior is done in zoos, and has increased on knowledge of zoology, genetics and even psychology.Above all, zoos can protect the future of many species of animal.Many species today are in danger of extinction, and thanks to zoos, they have a chance of survival.
Opponents of zoos say that they are cruel.First of all, they argue, zoos can not recreate the environment in which animals live and because of this, animals are bored and depressed.Secondly, animals have frequent contact with human visitors.Which can be stressful?
However, in my opinion, most zoos have improved recently.It is now quite rare to see animals in cages, and most zoos try hard to recreate the environment in which different animals live.
In conclusion, although zoos are not perfect environment for animals, I believe that they have more advantages than disadvantages.In an ideal world, zoos would not be necessary.But as long as man hunts animals for profit and destroy their environments, zoos are essential.
14: What is the most important function of zoos according to the speaker?
15: Why are some people against zoos?
16: What does the speaker think of zoos?

W: No, things have changed.Today, many parents, especially parents of girls, think their children get a better education in single sex schools.
M: Why do girls do better at single sex schools?
W: Because girls learn to be more self-confident and less worried about their appearance.
M: What about boys?
