Tapescripts

PART 1

Sarah: Good morning, Mr. Thompson. I’m calling to check the details for our class trip next Tuesday.
Mr. Thompson: Ah, yes, Sarah. We are very prepared... Usually, we focus on modern art, but this time... We will focus specifically on stilt house architecture.
Sarah: That sounds amazing... Is it true they always have 7 steps?
Mr. Thompson: That is common for smaller families. However, the model house you will visit is very large, so it has 9 steps...
Mr. Thompson: We planned bamboo dancing, but the dancers are busy. Instead... You can try hitting the gong...
Mr. Thompson: Pottery is next month. For this tour... You will practice weaving cloth on a loom.
Mr. Thompson: No sandwiches this time! You will be served a specialty: Five-coloured sticky rice.

PART 2

David: ...what truly took my breath away were the terraced fields... They don't have electricity... Instead, they build enormous waterwheels... I thought they might be made of expensive silk... So, it is actually 100% cotton... Instead, the whole village went to the communal house... I bought a bamboo flute instead.
