[00:40.99]Section 2 (1) Good afternoon ladies,gentlemen and children of all ages!
[00:47.99]I am the ringmaster of Barnum and Balley's Circus.
[00:52.79]Before I allow you all to enjoy today's entertainment,
[00:57.89]permit me to tell you about the fairground.
[01:02.28]The Big Top is the large red and yellow-striped tent you see behind me.
[01:09.07]That is where all of today's featured acts will be performing.
[01:14.45]On my rent there are two long trailers.
[01:19.05]That is where you can view human and animal oddities of all sorts--our Freak Show.
[01:28.14]Across from the Freak Show to my left is the Petting Zoo.
[01:34.15]Here both children and adults can enjoy playing with cute little animals.
[01:40.34]We have young goats,lambs and rabbits,
[01:44.65]as well as ponies1 for the children to ride.
[01:49.04]Now there's an adorable picture,eh folks?
[01:53.84]If your camera needs more film,
[01:58.23]remember that you can buy some at the souvenir stalls outside the main entrance.
[02:04.84]Located directly behind the Big Top are the Ferris Wheel and roller coasters.
[02:12.65]These rides are sure to give you a thrill.
[02:17.33]And speaking of thrills,in the unlikely event of accident,
[02:23.12]please use the emergency exit
[02:27.30]located at the back of the park near the Ferris Wheel.
[02:32.69]Refreshments may be purchased at the concession3 stand

[02:43.29]Be advised that on the left-hand side of the Main Entrance
[02:48.39]can be found public telephones.
[02:52.49]On the right-hand side of the said entrance
[02:56.80]there is the security and first aid stall.
[03:02.10]If you lose anything while at the fairground
[03:06.38]be sure to go as soon as possible to security and report it.
[03:12.68]Finally,the restrooms are at the rear left-hand side of the fairground,
[03:18.97]between the Freak Show trailers and the Ferris Wheel.
[03:24.25]Please bear in mind that these are pay toilets,costing 20 pence per use.

[03:56.30]Look at the entertainment program and questions 15 to 19.
[04:03.62]Answer questions 15 to 19 to complete the table.
[04:10.20]Now that all the official announcements are out of the way,
[04:15.29]I will quickly go over today's program.
[04:19.89]The entertainment will begin at 12 o'clock,
[04:24.67]with the Great Santini in the Big Top.
[04:29.56]Santini has traveled far from his native land of Romania
[04:35.46]to amaze you with feats4 of magic.
[04:40.16]He might even make you disappear!
[04:44.06]Following Santini at around one o'clock will be the bozo Brothers.
[04:50.35]These clowns will hit,trip,trick each other
[04:55.13]and maybe even crash their clown car,all for your laughter and amusement.
[05:02.73]Also at one o'clock at the Petting Zoo
[05:06.73]there will be a goat milking demonstration5.
[05:11.75]This is a fun and educational activity.

[05:21.23]the Bearded Lady will take the stage at 2 o'clock.
[05:27.00]Ever wondered what a woman would look like with a full beard?
[05:32.28]Well,here is your chance to find out!
[05:37.08]Trust me folks,the beard is real,but don't try to pull it,
[05:43.69]or you might just find out what it is like to get hit by a bearded lady!
[05:50.80]If you do not want to see a woman with facial hair,
[05:56.08]then back at the Big Top at two o'clock
[06:00.46]you can watch Gary the Glass Eater
[06:05.87]do just what his name implies,eat glass!
[06:11.25]Gary will make you cringe as he chews and swallows all sorts of glass items,
[06:19.85]from shards6 to entire lightbulbs,
[06:24.94]all without injuring himself,Don't try this at home kids!
[06:30.74]From 3 to 4 o'clock there will be an intermission.
[06:35.13]This is a great time for you to visit the refreshment2 bar and take a rest.
[06:41.01]When activities resume at four o'clock you will have two options.
[06:47.61]Down at the Petting Zoo there will a lamb shearing8 demonstration.
[06:54.12]Want to know how lamb's wool became that beautiful sweater in your closet?
[06:59.81]Just ask Maggie Simpson,Scitland's leading wool expert,how it was done.
[07:07.02]She will demonstrate how to shear7 the wool from a lamb
[07:12.22]and then explain the many processes the wool must undergo
[07:17.71]suitable for making clothing and other products.
[07:23.12]If you are really interested,
[07:26.51]she might even let you have a hand at shaving a sheep yourself!
[07:33.22]At the same time,over at the Big Top,
[07:37.51]there will be an Elephant Parade.
[07:42.03]Watch as eight massive Indian elephants perform lever tricks
[07:48.01]with beautiful female acrobats balancing on their backs.
[07:53.42]Immediately following the Elephant Parade,at about five o'clock,
[07:58.82]the Swan Sisters will perform their world-famous flying trapeze act.
[08:06.43]Watch these two lovely sisters risk life and limb
[08:11.31]as they fly and tumble through the air 150 meters above the ground-
[08:18.91]all without a safety net.
[08:22.80]I don't want to say too much,but make sure to stay for their grand finale,
[08:29.99]which is said to be one of the most dangerous trapeze stunts9 ever performed.
[08:36.60]At 5:30 the Siamese Twins will take center stage at the Freak Show Trailer.
[08:44.59]Originally from China,identical twin brothers Ping and Pong
[08:50.78]have been attached at the hip10 and shoulder since birth.
