Look at the questions for this part.
For questions 24-30, indicate which of the alternatives A, B, or C is the most appropriate.
Mark one letter A, B, or C on the Answer Sheet.
Host: My guest today is Douglas Turner who recently spent a weekend climbing a mountain in Africa.
Host: Douglas, how does this come about?
Douglas Turner: Well, I suppose it started with seeing an advert for activity holidays in the National Press week after week. It somehow got into my subconscious. There was one which said, "Are you ready for the greatest physical challenge of your life?" 5000 meters. One weekend. And somewhat against my better judgment, I found myself picking up the phone straight away. You see, I simply haven’t trained for it, the nearest I’d go was a bit of hill walking five years ago.
Host: What did you think you would get out of the weekend?
Douglas Turner: Generally when I go to things, I enjoy meeting people. But in this case, I was afraid that the rest of the group would be a bunch of healthy types and I wouldn’t have much in common with them. And as for the physical effort of climbing the mountain, I thought I’d be lucky if I survived the weekend at all. It was more a kind of wanting to see what I was mentally capable of doing. Would I get cold feet and go not at all. Or go, but give up half way up? That sort of thing.
Host: Then you made it to the top.
Douglas Turner: Yes, I did. Much to my surprise I can tell you.
Host: And were you right about the other people?
Douglas Turner: No, actually. They were a few serious walkers and climbers, but most of the participants were professional people who wanted to do something quite different once in a while. More or less like me in fact. So not intimidating after all. Though I have to admit that nearly all of them were fitter than me. Actually, I haven’t realized so many people did this sort of thing. It was runny. When I told a friend that I was going and she said, "Oh, not another one. Everyone I know is going climbing this year. " There is a big thing about pushing yourself to your limit at the moment, isn’t there? "You are welcomed to it," she said, "You won’t catch me up there."
Host: How did you all get on together?
Douglas Turner: I suppose we were suspicious of each other at first. But that soon went and we somehow developed a really close group feeling. And nobody complained about having to wait for the slow ones, which usually included me. Or at least, if they did complain, they did it out of earshot. In fact, on the flight home, we were busy exchanging cards, and decided to book another weekend trip as a party. But without a mountain sight this time.
Host: So how did the weekend compare with your expectations?
Douglas Turner: It was much better than I’d expected. It made me change in subtle ways. As I’d hoped, I gained self-knowledge. And I learnt to get on with people I couldn’t escape from. But I also became much more observant. Of the tiny little wild flowers for instance, and that was quite a bonus.
Host: I suppose you are going to be a regular mountain climber now.
Douglas Turner: The pair of boots I wore, I’m keeping with the mud still on them on my desk at work. They are kind of trophy. To prove to myself that I’ve done it. But I somehow don’t think I will be using them again. I’m going to have to put them somewhere less visible though because it sometimes a bit embarrassing when other people are impressed.
Host: Douglas Turner, thank you very much.
Douglas Turner: Thank you.
