You will hear each item twice. R1 Question 1 How high have the tourists climbed to get the view of the city? V1 *From the top of this building, you can see right across the south of the city, all the way to the river over there. V2 How high up are we? And how far away is the river? V1 The river is 6 kilometres away and we’re approximately 60 metres above ground.** Pause 00’10” Repeat from * to ** Pause 00’05” R1 Question 2 Why do the two friends have some time for a drink? V1 *The next train to Mumbai will arrive at 6pm. Please note that this train is delayed by 45 minutes. V2 That’s our train. We have some time now, what shall we do? V1 Oh well, we might as well go and have a drink while we’re waiting.** Pause 00’10” Repeat from * to ** Pause 00’05” R1 Question 3 What difference to the price will Zac’s incorrect measurement make? V1 *Well, this room is quite a bit bigger than you said it was over the phone, Zac. V2 I measured it in just the way you told me to. V1 It’s 30% bigger – that’s 30% more paint, and it will take longer to do the job. V2 Does that change the price you quoted to do the job? V1 I’m afraid so. It'll be £18 more.** Pause 00’10” Repeat from * to ** Pause 00’05”

You will hear the interview twice. V1 *We’re here today with Imelda Jarmusch at her new shop. Hello Imelda, I believe that you’re due to open for business tomorrow? V2 Yes, that’s right. I’m a little nervous, but excited too. V1 It must have taken a lot of planning and preparation to get to this stage, Imelda. Have you had any previous experience of setting up a business? V2 No, none at all. This is a completely new project for me. I’ve been putting in lots of hours over the last 6 months, and doing a lot of learning. V1 You must have plenty of energy but you must also be very tired. V2 Absolutely, yes. I’m really tired – and I’ve been living on a diet of coffee and burgers for the last few weeks. V1 Oh dear. Well, I do hope things settle down for you after tomorrow and you can eat normally. Now, Imelda, please tell us what your business is all about. V2 It consists of two parts really. In the shop, we’ll be selling gifts such as those shoulder bags over there and the wooden giraffes in the corner. But also, we’re running a sort of travel agency. V1 Oh, that’s unusual. Is there a link between the two then? I mean the items for sale and the travel? V2 Well, I run the shop, but my business partner, Stefan, is managing the travel agency. The idea is that the goods we’re selling highlight interesting places to visit, and that creates a desire to travel to those places. V1 And that’s where Stefan comes in. What type of holidays is he offering? V2 Activity and exploration. So it’s not really the sun and beach crowd that we’re trying to attract. V1 Who came up with the plan, Imelda? V2 Both of us really. I was in Sri Lanka last year and met Stefan there. He was working as a tour guide for a group of people from Belgium and we got talking about going into business together. V1 And how did you finance the business? V2 We both had some savings, so we put 25% each into the business, and then we borrowed the remaining £30,000 from the bank. V1 Was that the toughest part, getting the money from the bankers? V2 Not really, no. We had a good business plan and we presented it confidently. I think the toughest part was getting the shop ready. V1 What would you like to achieve by the end of your first year? V2 We hope to have sold at least one thousand items, and we also hope to have organised at least two trips a month.

Page 9 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2013 0510 33 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 V1 It’s a lot of work, Imelda. Will you be employing anyone to help? V2 Yes. We have two people working for us. One to help in the shop on a part-time basis and another to take care of the travel arrangements. V1 Is there any chance of you and Stefan swapping places? I mean you leading the trips abroad and Stefan working here in the shop? V2 Oh yes, definitely. We are taking it in turns to do the travelling. I’m not interested in standing behind a sales desk all the time – I also need an active life.** Pause 00’30” R1 Now you will hear the interview again.

You will hear the interview twice. V1 *We’re here this morning in the South of France with Marcel Benault. Marcel lives on a boat. Hello there and thank you for offering to show us your home on water. V2 Hello...welcome aboard. V1 How long have you been living on your boat, Marcel? V2 For the last five and a half years. I’ve owned several smaller boats in my life, but 8 years ago I decided to sell my house and live full-time on the water. It took me a while to get things organised though. V1 What type of boat is this then? V2 It’s called a motor cruiser. It can be used on rivers and canals and also out at sea. V1 So from where we are now in the South of France, you can go inland up to Paris, but you could also sail across the Mediterranean and end up in Africa. V2 That’s right, yes. In fact, I was in Cyprus last week – it took me 4 days to get back! V1 The inside of the boat seems larger than it looks from the outside. So where we are now, what’s this section called? V2 This is the cockpit, where we steer the boat, but where we can also enjoy the sights and the sea breeze. V1 It does feel great out here in the open on a sunny day like today. How fast does the boat travel, Marcel? V2 Quicker than you think. It has a modern, electronic 300 kilowatt engine which can propel the boat at up to 34 knots – that’s the speed measurement we use for water. That equates to about 64 kilometres per hour on land. V1 What other technology does it have? V2 The boat has a satellite communication system, so I always know exactly where I am at sea. And it has a digital depth finder, so I don’t get stuck on the river bed anywhere! V1 And what about things that make life comfortable for you? V2 It has a high-definition television, built-in mp3 player with speakers, central heating, and even air conditioning for when I’m in hot places. V1 What about when you are out at sea, for days or even weeks at a time? V2 I can store 825 litres of water and 910 litres of fuel. That’s enough for more than a month’s cruising. V1 And I can see that you have a refrigerator, a gas cooker and even a normal electricity supply, just as you would see in a house.

Mark scheme, page 11

Page 11 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2013 0510 33 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 V2 Yes. When I’m back in harbour, I just plug in a cable and that gives me constant electricity. The boat has 4 batteries though, so when I’m out on the water, I rely on those. They are re- chargeable. The gas is just a portable bottle, like the ones you use for camping. V1 What about the social side of things. Doesn’t it get lonely? V2 No, not really. In each harbour, or marina if you are using rivers and canals, there is a lively community of people just like me. The harbours and marinas have shops, restaurants and other places to relax. At this harbour, which is my main base, I have lots of friends. V1 Where are you off to next? V2 I’m going to make my way along a canal called the Canal du Midi all the way inland up to Toulouse. I’ve been at sea for a while already this year, so I fancy a change. V1 The Canal du Midi…isn’t that a World Heritage Site? V2 Yes. It was opened in 1681 and took 15 years to build. It cuts across South West France from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. V1 There must be some beautiful scenery along the way. I think I envy you, Marcel. V2 The scenery is very special, yes. The canal has a 173 metre-long tunnel, and this was the first ever canal tunnel in the world. And let’s not forget the reservoir – the Canal du Midi has its own purpose-built lake which supplies water to the canal. V1 Sounds exciting. Just one last thing – do you need a licence for a boat? V2 Yes. We need two actually: one for rivers and canals, and the other for the sea. In fact, for the latter, we need to gain a special certificate, and this involves passing some written and practical tests. The rules are much stricter for taking a boat out to sea, as you would imagine. V1 For safety reasons, I’m sure. Thanks Marcel. It’s been a pleasure.** Pause 00’30” R1 Now you will hear the interview again. Repeat from * to ** Pause 00’30” R1 That is the end of Question 8. In a moment you will hear Question 9.

Page 12 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2013 0510 33 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 TRACK 5 R1 Question 9 Listen to the following interview with the manager of a library, and then indicate whether each statement is true or false by putting a tick in the appropriate box. You will hear the interview twice. V1 *I’m in Oxford this morning, and I’m here to meet Hugo McDaniel, who looks after this great library. Hello Hugo. V2 Hello. V1 Hugo, what a lovely city, and of course quite a famous city. It’s my first visit to Oxford, and I’m here for a few days, so perhaps you can give me some hints later about where to go and what to see. V2 Yes, of course. I’ve lived here all my life, so I should know one or two interesting places. There’s the University of course, which has produced 47 Nobel Peace prize winners and 26 Prime Ministers. V1 OK, I’m here to talk to you about the problems that you are experiencing in the library at the moment. But before we get to that can you tell us a little about the great library itself. V2 The original library dates back to 1320, when it was situated in the north of the town, but it wasn’t until 1620 that the library was established in its present location, here. So it’s a very old library. V1 And not just a single building, right? V2 No. We have 30 separate buildings now in the city; all linked by private footpaths. And the two main departments are linked by an underground tunnel. V1 Fascinating. Hugo, you have an unusual policy about lending out books, don’t you? V2 Well, it’s simple really – we don’t lend books. Anyone who wants to read one of our books has to do it here, in the library. Even the King of England was refused a book, back in 1645. V1 I guess that’s because you have so many valuable items. You must have rather a lot of books here if they never leave the building. V2 Yes, we have over 12 million books, maps and documents – some of which date back to the time of the Pharaohs in ancient Egypt. So yes, we have some very valuable books and manuscripts indeed. V1 And you have another unusual policy, don’t you? V2 You mean that we’re not allowed to throw any of our books away. By law, we have to store a single copy of all the books published in the UK and Ireland. V1 That’s a lot of books! Which brings us to the main problem – lack of space. V2 Indeed. We have to find space for just over 1000 books every single day. And quite simply, we’ve run out of shelf space here in Oxford. V1 And people thought that the internet would kill off the printed word, eh. So what’s the solution? V2 We’re building a warehouse – about 80 kilometres away. It’s almost ready and it’s huge, housing another 10 million books.

Mark scheme, page 13

Page 13 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2013 0510 33 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 V1 Will you remove books from here then? V2 Actually, we started removing the less popular items a few years ago. We have 2.4 million books stored in a mine – a moisture-free and very dark salt mine in northern England – all awaiting a permanent home. The conditions in the mine help to protect and preserve the books. But yes, we’ll also be removing another 2 million of the least wanted books from here, the library itself. V1 Tell us more about the process of moving this large amount of books, Hugo. V2 We’re employing around 150 people. We need people who can operate machinery, such as cranes and lifting devices, and to drive trucks to carry the books. And then we need people to re- catalogue every single book and put them all on the new shelves. V1 So how are the books catalogued? V2 Each book has a unique bar code. So they all need to be scanned into a database, and then re- located in the warehouse. We’ll do this by size of book and not by subject. So we could easily have a book on fishing stored on a shelf next to a book on astrophysics. This will be quite different to the way that the books are shelved in a regular library. V1 And what does the warehouse look like inside? V2 Very modern. Almost like a space station. It’s temperature controlled, has constant low-level lighting and the moisture levels are kept very low. V1 Will people be able to visit the warehouse and read the books there? V2 No. If a particular book is required, we will arrange for it to be delivered here within 48 hours. V1 Sounds like a challenge, Hugo. And all because you can’t throw any old books away! V2 Yes. But it’s not going to be a solution for ever. We calculate that if the same number of new books arrive each year from now on, the new warehouse will be full in around 18 years. And then we’ll have to build another one. V1 Unless you start scanning books into computers, Hugo, and create digital copies? That would take up far less space. V2 That approach has been discussed, and of course, there are plenty of digital books out there now. But we decided that we just couldn’t destroy any of our books and replace them with digital copies. Some of them are really old, many are famous, and others are just beautiful.** Pause 00’30” R1 Now you will hear the interview again.

You will hear the talk twice. V1 *Good evening. I'm here to tell you about sleep. I think it's fairly obvious that humans need sleep and the current thinking among scientists is that sleep performs two functions: firstly, your body needs to rest and prepare for the day ahead, and secondly, your brain needs to clear itself of the bits of unnecessary information that have built up during the day. Dreams are thought to be a result of this latter process. The amount of sleep you get can be affected by the amount of light in the room where you are trying to sleep. So it's true to say that complete darkness should make you sleep much better, but if any light is getting through, this will affect your pattern of sleep. Perhaps surprisingly, many people like to try to get to sleep with some sort of light in their bedrooms, which actually makes it harder to fall asleep. Science is telling us that any blue light which is around creates poor conditions for sleep, whereas red light has the effect of helping us sleep. So in the bedroom it makes sense to have a red light at night, but a blue light to wake you up in the morning. Maybe it’s time to go out and buy some coloured light bulbs… Some people like to have naps – or short periods of sleep – in the daytime. This is probably because they have not been sleeping as much as they should do at night. Your body remembers how much sleep you actually had over-night and tries to make up for a lack of sleep in the daytime. So if you borrow sleeping time by staying up late, eventually you will have to pay it back by falling asleep in the daytime. And sleeping patterns are hereditary – so if your parents prefer to go to bed early, you probably will. And resisting this will not be good for you. Waking up after seven or eight hours of sleep is ideal. Any more or any less usually results in your body suffering a slight degree of shock. This is because you are interrupting the natural sleep process. Leaving your curtains or blinds open is therefore not advised if you want to get the perfect night's sleep. On the other hand, using a red-coloured light at night, set to switch off automatically after no more than 60 minutes – and a blue coloured light to come on 7 to 8 hours later is a good idea. ** Pause 00’30” R1 Now you will hear the talk again. Repeat from * to ** Pause 00’30” R1 That is the end of Question 10, and of the test. In a moment your teacher will collect your papers. Please check that you have written your name, Centre number and candidate number on the front of your question paper. Remember, you must not talk until all the papers have been collected. Pause 00’10” R1 Teacher, please collect all the papers. Thank you, everyone.
