Listen to the extract on television. Then, answer the questions that follow. Television was not invented or created by any one person. The ideas and innovations of several
people led to the invention of television. It is virtually impossible to say who invented television. Different
experiments by various people, in the field of electricity and radio, led to the development of basic
technologies and ideas that laid the foundation for the invention of television. All the early television systems
were black and white, with colour television being invented much later on.

Listen to the announcement. Then, fill in the table below. SMK Ayer Tawar recently launched ‘Save the Earth’ Campaign. In line with the campaign, the school
authority has decided to cut down on the use of electricity in the school. All rooms equipped with air
conditioners are allowed to switch on the units only after 10 a.m. All fans and light points must be switched
off when no students are in the classroom. Only 2 units of air conditioner can be used at any one time in

cooperation to save mother earth.

JOHOR BHARU, A housewife who thought that she had a good bargain when she bought a cell phone from a
makeshift stall outside the market was horrified when the cell phone exploded when it was used. The woman
who wanted to be identified as May said that she was amazed at the wonder of the cell phone when the stall
owner demonstrated how it worked. May felt that RM150 for the cell phone was a good bargain. She happily
lugged the cell phone home. When she tried to operate the cell phone it made a loud growling sound and
exploded. May escaped with some superficial wounds. She later went back to the market place to look for
the seller but was unable to find him. She later lodged a complaint at the Consumer Association. The public
is warned not to buy electrical products sold by the roadside but from shops and authorised outlets.

Track 32
Listen to the text.
There are many reasons why we should walk instead of driving. First, it saves the planet. It also saves
money on petrol. It even saves us parking fees besides having to spend time looking for a parking space.
Another reason why we should walk is that it is a good form of exercise. It helps to burn calories and keeps
us fit and strong. Sometimes walking can be faster than driving. We often underestimate the time we spend
driving, thinking that a 10-minute journey may only take two minutes. We often do not take into account the
unavoidable extra time involved, either, looking for our keys, filling up with petrol, and not to mention the
time spent on the road as a result of traffic jam.
