o, not your birthday, Mrs. Parkinson. Your date of birth. Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) Twelfth of June 1946. But not a word to my husband, mind, he thinks it was 1956. Psychiatrist: 1946. Right. Now, what seems to be the trouble。 Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) Well, it’s nothing very much, doctor. It’s just that (crunch) I can’t stop (crunch) eating these crisps (crunch). Psychiatrist: Yes, I had noticed that you seemed to be getting through rather a lot of them. Er ... do you mind picking up those two empty bags off the floor, please。 Thank you. Now, when did this problem start。 Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) About six months ago. My husband and I won a huge box of crisps in a talent petition. And we’ve not been able (crunch) to stop eating them ever since. It’s costing us a fortune. (Crunch) Psychiatrist: I see. Now, what do you think about when you’re eating these crisps。 Mrs. Parkinson: More (crunch) crisps. Psychiatrist: I see. And what do the crisps remind you of。 Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) Potatoes. (Crunch) Potato crisps. (Crunch) All nice, crisp and golden brown with plenty of salt on them. Psychiatrist: I see. But don’t they remind you of anything else。 Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) Cheese. Cheese crisps. Cheddar crisps. Roquefort crisps. Edam crisps. Oh, I’d definitely say they remind me of cheese. Psychiatrist: Yes, they certainly seem to do that. Does anything else e to mind when you’re eating these vast amounts of crisps。 Mrs. Parkinson: Not much, apart from crisps, doctor. (Crunch) If I’m really on form I can work up an appetite for, oh, paprika crisps, or shrimp crisps or even ham and bacon crisps. Psychiatrist: And have you made any effort to stop eating these crisps。 Mrs. Parkinson: Oh, no. I wouldn’t want to (crunch) eat anything else. I like my crisps. Psychiatrist: But if you don’t want to stop eating them, why e to a psychiatrist。 Mrs. Parkinson: (Crunch) Well, it’s the noise, doctor. (Crunch) My husband plains he can’t hear the telly. And the neighbors bang on the walls late at night. (Crunch) Say they can’t sleep. I’ve offered them a whole box so that ... so that they can do the same, but (crunch) they say they’d rather sleep. Psychiatrist: I should have thought earplugs would have been a more sensible thing to offer them. Mrs. Parkinson: Earplugs。 That’s it。 The problem’s solved. (Crunch) Thank you. Thank you very much, doctor. Psychiatrist: Er ... Mrs ... um... Mrs. Parkinson: Parkinson. Psychiatrist: Parkinson, yes. Er ... could I have a crisp。 Mrs. Parkinson: Certainly, (crunch) doctor. Here, have a couple of bags. Psychiatrist: Oh, thank you, Mrs. Parkinson. Oh, paprika with cheese. (Crunch) Thank you so much and good day. (Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch) Lesson ThirtyTwo Section One: Tapescript. News Item 1: Presenter: Now before the weather report, we have some road news for you from Philip Thomson. Philip Thomson: Yes, well, the A41 is still very busy at the Dome roundabout this morning. Harrow Road, the A404, Harrow Road is now flowing freely, no problems there. The other congestion we have is in the A1M up near Hatfield. The M1 is heavy but at least is moving along, a little bit slower than normal. In Hammersmith, road repairs between Ridge Street and King Street are causing delay. Finally, a demonstration march at twelve thirty will cause congestion in central London. News Item 2: Presenter: And now our weather report. Nice sunshine all day long today, soon being very warm, but there will be some relief from the heat with something of a breeze developing. Even so, the temperature will get up to twentyfive degrees later today。 it’s already up to nieen degrees Celsius now, at nine in the morning, and it’ll go on rising. Very little cloud at any stage during the day, just a few clouds drifting around early in the afternoon, so we should end up the day with a good fourteen hours of sunshine going into the record books. That breeze is an easterly one that’s going to keep the coastal areas a little bit colder during the day but still quite pleasant. Over the night, clear, dry weather, still a little bit of the breeze and the temperature down to sixteen in central London and twelve or thirteen out of town. Section Two: Tapescript. A. Acmodation: Visitor: Where can I stay in this town。 Resident: There are lots of hotels, but they tend to be fairly expensive. And then there are bed and breakfast places, which are much cheaper— and you can find out about them through looking in the paper, or else just walking around the streets, and they have signs in the window saying ‘Bed＆ Breakfast’. And then there are youth hostels. Visitor: What are the youth hostels like。 Resident: The youth hostels are OK. All you get is a bed, but they do tend to be very cheap. Visitor: Do I have to bee a member。 Resident: Yes, you do, in fact. But it’s very easy to join, and there’s an office along the road, where you can go and sign on. B. Schedule in the Nursing Home: Mrs. Weston is describing her schedule in the nursing home. I usually get up at . I’ve always been an early riser. When my husband was alive, we had to be up by five o’clock. He was a long distance train driver, you see. Before breakfast I have a cup of tea and I listen to music on the radio. Then between seven and eight I get dressed and eat breakfast— a boiled egg and a large glass of orange juice— I never have anything else. Then at eight o’clock I always watch breakfast television— for the news and the weather and the chat. And then I usually have a nap until lunch. That’s always at twelve. We have a big lunch here at Twybury’s— soup, roast meat, potatoes, vegetables, always a pudding. After lunch I like being taken out in my wheelchair, or even in a car, if there’s anyone to take me. I hate staying indoors. I like looking in the shop win。
