W: Good morning. You have reached Dr. Henry’s office. This is Laura. How may I help you?  

M: Hi, this is Phillips. I’d like to reschedule my appointment today at three o’clock to another time tomorrow. Is that possible?

W: I’m afraid the appointments have already been fully booked this week. Mr. Phillips, you’ve already waited two weeks to make this reservation   and you really should have your teeth examined.   Is there any way you can come today as arranged?

M: I know, but I am at an urgent meeting with my client right now and I might not make it to the three o’clock appointment this afternoon. Well, I’ll try to conclude everything quickly in the meeting so that I can arrive at your clinic on time.   Thank you.

M: Today I’m talking with 15-year-old Adriana Brown.She built her own bicycle generator.   Adriana, can you tell us something about your project? How did you get started?

W: Well, I’ve helped my dad with some of his projects. But I decided I wanted to do my own project this time. So I researched ideas on the Internet. I decided on a bicycle generator because it’s really useful.   I can use it to power my computer.

M: So, how did you build it?

W: First, I found plans for generators. I chose a simple design and made a first draft of the project. Then, my dad made some suggestions and I made another draft. After that, I started to look for materials. The only problem was that I didn’t have a lot of money, so it was difficult!  

M: So, what did you do?

W: Well, I went to a bicycle shop and a car repair shop. I told them about my project. They gave me some extra parts.

M: Oh, that was nice.

W: Yeah, it really was...When I got all the materials, I was ready to put them all together.

M: Well, I think it’s great. Very impressive!

M: OK, are you all settled? Well, first of all, welcome to Cardiff University. I’m here to explain what we can offer you.Now, as a new student at the university,   you will probably need some sort of guidance to help you to use the library effectively to study and research. Some of you have asked about a guided tour but we find this rather confuses people.So, in this first week, we run a series of talks   which focus on different aspects of the library and its resources. OK, now let me give you an outline of what’s available to you. You’ll find that the computers are increasingly used as a research tool. Many students do most of their research on the Internet and  the library computers are permanently online.   Having found what you need, you’ll find you can readily save the text on your personal computer space. You can even print it off if you need. Naturally we do still have the full range of classic reference books for you to use and there are several copies of each one. This is because some of you may prefer to borrow a book rather than sit in the library. There is a restricted loan time on these so that they are not missing from the shelves for too long. Although there is a Section Manager for each part of the library, they are very busy and so if you do get stuck in looking for things, you should ask the relevant Cataloguing Assistant.   As your Training Supervisor, I just oversee your work for a week and will not be around after this initial week.
