Please raise your hand if the sound is too quiet (pause). Now we will begin. Part One. Listen to a radio interview and tick TRUE or FALSE. You will hear the interview twice. You now have half a minute to read the questions (30 second gap). I = Interviewer AW = Alan Weaver I – Good morning to all our ABC Radio listeners and a very warm welcome to Alan Weaver, former top striker and captain of Newcastle United Football Club. Good morning, Alan. AW – Good morning. I – Thanks for coming onto the show today to tell us about your charity work in one of Africa’s poorest countries – Uganda. AW – It’s a pleasure. I – Alan, can you start by telling us why you went to Uganda? AW – Yes. It was part of this year’s Sport Relief fundraising effort. I wanted to show people in the UK why places such as Uganda so desperately need our money. It’s a country where one million children have lost their parents to HIV/AIDS and life expectancy is 49 years old, compared to 79 in the UK. I – Tell us a bit more about what you saw and did in the slums of Kampala, the capital. AW – Well, I should start by saying that what I saw will stay with me forever.

  • The Emory Student Guide to Queen Mary University Meet the Author
    The Emory Student Guide to Queen Mary University Meet the Author Emily Gaines (‘16C ) My name is Emily Gaines and I am a history major and a sociology minor. I studied abroad at Queen Mary University, University of London (QMUL) in the fall of 2014. I’ve compiled this guide with some general information about the university and its application process, as well as what to expect once you arrive in London. I hope you find it helpful! Queen Mary at a Glance Address: Mile End Road London E1 4NS Nearest Underground Stations: Mile End (Hammersmith & City, District and Central lines) Stepney Green (District and Hammersmith & City lines) Total Enrollment: 20,260 Undergraduates: 13,240 Study Abroad Students: ~ 300 per semester Number of Countries Represented: 151 Why Choose Queen Mary? Queen Mary, University of London is located in the East end of London and offers programs in business, social sciences, natural sciences, arts, engineering and mathematical sciences. As an Emory student, you’re prepared for the academic rigor of Queen Mary’s courses. QMUL is the largest self-contained campus in inner London and has a highly diverse study body. The majority of first year and study abroad students live on campus, making it easy to settle in and meet new people. Classes are only a short walk from your flat too! Financing Your Study Abroad Experience During your time abroad, you will remain enrolled as a full-time Emory student and as such, you will continue to pay Emory tuition. The difference between cost of attendance at Emory and in London is the living costs.
