Maybe you could mention that to Tony? I don't think he knows it. Amy : Is that a new hairstyle? It's very ... unique. Talia : Very funny. I had to work late last night. I' m tired, I'm in a bad mood, and I don't care about my hair. Amy: That's probably why you're not a reporter yet. Talia : You think so? Amy: No, I'm just kidding... Talia : You may be right. Amy : Maybe Tony will take you more seriously after you finish the journalism class. Talia : Oh, no! Our journalism class! I forgot. It's tomorrow. What's the homework? Amy : Compare two news stories on the same topic. Talia : That's easy enough to do. Sounds interesting,too. I guess I'll do it after work. Amy : You work too hard. Video 2 Amy : Why don't you take a break tonight? Yeah, why not come with me to a party? Talia : No thanks. Maybe some other time. Amy : Come on! Josh Taylor is having a party. A lot of available guys will be there... You might meet someone. Talia : No, listen! I'm too busy to go. Go without me... Tony : Good, you're here. I have something important to talk to you about. What are you working on? Talia : I'm researching the background information for that transportation story. Amy : She's always working. She told me to tell you that. Tony : I have a big project for you to work on. I know you've been hoping for a break. This may be it. Talia : Really? That's great! Tony : Come to my office in about 10 minutes. By the way, you look different. Have you done something with your hair? Unit 2 Breaking News Video 1 Tony : Someone sent us this tape. This is incredible. What a shame. Talia : What' s a shame? Tony: Have you ever heard of Nick Crawford, the soccer player? He's the star forward on our national team. Talia : Of course. Everyone's heard of him, I think. Tony : Well, apparently this conversation took place a while ago: Nick Crawford talks about how he needs money. Amy: That's not big news. There's a rumor that he's fallen into debt lately. I've heard all sorts of gossip about that. Tony: Yes, but, it gets even more interesting. Also on the tape, a woman offers him $50,000. Talia : What for? Tony: To sit out the first round qualifying match. Remember? Nick Crawford had an injury and couldn't play in that game? Talia : Sure, I remember. We lost that match, and if we lose again, we might be eliminated. Tony : Exactly. The next qualifying round is coming up. If this tape is real, Nick Crawford will be history. Amy : You mean, he won't get to play in the next match? Tony: Exactly. And without him, we'll probably lose again. Amy: Wow! A real scandal! Is the tape for real? Tony : Talia, that's your job now. Find out if the tape is authentic. And you'd better find out fast. Video 2 Talia : OK. I'll get this tape to an expert. Tony: If we can, we'll run the tape on tonight's broadcast—before the competition hears about it. In fact, they may already have a copy of this tape. Talia : Speaking of copies, we ought to make a copy of this. We shouldn't give away our only one. Tony: Good thinking. Amy ... handle this with care. Amy: Absolutely! Talia : See you later. I'm going to call the audio department. They can give me the name of an expert. Tony: Tell them we need someone fast. Talia : OK. I'm on it. Tony : Is there a problem? Talia : Not exactly. I'll do it. It's just that ... I know Nick Crawford. Tony: You do? Talia: Yes. We went to college together. It's hard to believe he would do something like this. Tony: Well, wake up and smell the coffee, Talia! He's a big star. He's been a star on the national team for four years now. People do crazy things when they get famous. Talia: I just can't believe it. Nick Crawford taking a bribe? Tony: Listen, Talia. You're smart. You're a good researcher, and one day— I hope — you'll be a great reporter. But don't let your emotions get in the way of your work. If you do, I'll have to find someone else to work on this story. Unit 3 A Job For Talia Video 1 Woman’s voice on tape: We’ll pay you fifty thousand dollars. Nick’s voice on tape: And all I have to do is sit on the bench? Woman’s voice on tape: That’s right. Do that, and fifty thousand dollars is yours. Nick’s voice on tape: Well, I can really use the money. You’ve got yourself a deal. Woman’s voice on tape: Great. It’s a pleasure doing business with you. Tony: How’s it going? Talia: I can’t tell. I hope our expert will be able to figure it out. Tony: Me, too, when will we have the results? Talia: He’s going to call me back this afternoon. Tony: Good. Talia: You know, I’ve been a researcher here for three years. I’ve investigated other scandals. But something here doesn’t seem right. Tony: What do you mean? Talia: It just doesn’t make sense. Nick Crawford loves soccer. Why would he do something to hurt his career? Tony: That’s a good question. How well do you know Nick Crawford? Is he a friend of yours? Talia: No, not really. I just knew him in college. We had English together for two semesters. Tony: Oh, that’s it? Talia: Well, I got to know him a little. I know that he moved here from England about 10 years ago. I know that he’s smart. And I know that he’s always dreamed of being a great soccer star. Tony: Mm-hmm. Talia: So, why would he risk ruining his career? Video 2 Talia: Bad news. The audio expert needs another day to check the tape. Tony: Did you tell him it was urgent? Find someone else. Talia: Of course I told him. But I also told him we need to be sure, absolutely sure. Tony: That’s true. Talia: Tony, listen. I have an idea. Let me go and talk to Nick. Tony: I don’t know… Talia: He may remember me. He may be willing to confide in me. Tony: Talia, look, you’re not a reporter yet, you’re still a researcher. Remember? Talia: Please, Tony. Give me a chance. What do you have to lose? Tony: All right, I’ll give you one more day. But only one more day. Talia: You won’t be sorry. Just one more thing: if I find something big, the story is mine, right? Tony: What do you mean? Talia: I mean, you’ll let me report it, won’t you? If I can get Nick to tell me everything? Tony: You deserve a break. I know that. I’ll tell you what: come up with something big and the story is yours. But,Talia be careful. Talia: What do you mean? Tony: This Nick Crawford guy… I hear he can be very charming. Don’t let him charm you out of a story. Unit 4 A Matter Of Trust Video 1 Talia: Nick? Nick: I know you, don’t I? Talia: Yes. I’m Talia, Talia Santos. Nick: Yeah, Talia! Of course! Talia: After all these years, I’m surprised you remember me. Nick: How could I forget you?? We were in an English literature class together, weren’t we? Talia: Tha’s right, the Shakespeare class. Nick: Right, Dr. Custer’s class. She was a tough teacher. She really made us work hard. Talia: Oh, gosh, don’t remind me. Nick: We studied together for the final, didn’t we? Talia: Yes, that’s right. As I recall, you did really well on it. Nick: That’s right! But only because I speak Shakespeare so fluently. Talia: Very cute. Nick: So, what are you doing here? Are you a big soccer fan now? Talia: Not exactly. I’m a researcher now… with Newsline. Nick: Oh, I see. Well, news people aren’t my favourite people right now. I heard there’s a nasty story coming out about me. Something about me throwing a game? Talia: That’s why I’m here. Nick: Too bad. Well, maybe we can meet again sometime, under different circumstances. Video 2 Talia: No listen. I’d like to … I want to hear your side of the story. You don’t trust me, do you? Nick: Nope. You’re in the news business. You’re all alike. Talia: Hey, don’t judge me so quickly. I told you the truth about why I was here, didn’t I? Really. You can trust me. Nick: Look, the only goal I have right now is helping my team win the qualifying match next weekend. After that I will deal with this mess. Talia: Wait, Nick. The charges are serious. People say you threw a game. They think you have gambling debts. Nick: Yes. That’s why I gave the Soccer Federation access to my bank accounts. Talia: They could stop you from playing. Forever. Nick: That’s impossible. Talia: No, it’s not. That’s why I want you to talk to me. I want your story. Did you or didn’t you take the money? Did you or didn’t you throw the game? Nick: Oh, you want to hear my story? Do you want to hear the true story, or the story that will get your show more viewers? Which story do you really want? Take your pick. Talia: The only story I want is the true story. Nick: Well, the truth is, I didn’t do it. I’m an innocent man. Unit 5 Nick’s Explanation Video 1 Talia: OK, let’s get this straight. You’re one of the country’s best soccer players… Nick: Well, I have to admit — that's true. Of course, some people think that’s not such a great achievement. Talia: Now, for some reason, you sat out one of the biggest games of the year. Nick: Not just for some reason. I sat out because I had a sprained（扭伤）ankle. I could hardly walk, I certainly couldn’t play. Talia: But your coach can’t verify this. Nick: Of course not. You can’t see a sprain on an X-ray. Talia: You can’t? Nick: No. Talia: I see… Nick: You don’t have to believe me, but it’s the truth. I sat out the first round qualifying match because I had a sprained ankle. Talia: And not because you took a bribe. Nick: A bride? How can anybody believe such a ridiculous thing? Talia: Then can you explain the tape? Nick: What tape? Talia: Listen to this. Woman’s voice on tape: We’ll pay you fifty thousand dollars. Nick’s voice on tape: And all I have to do is sit on the bench? Woman’s voice on tape: That’s right. Do that and fifty thousand dollars is yours. Nick’s voice on tape: Well, I can really use the money. You’ve got yourself a deal. Woman’s voice on tape: Great. It’s a pleasure doing business with you. Video 2 Nick: It sure sounds like my voice, but I don’t know why. Why would I do something so stupid? Talia: That’s what I want to know. Nick: Hey, Coach! Can I talk to you a minute? Some TV station is going to report that I deliberately sat out a game! Coach: I know all about it. Who is this? Nick: This is an old friend of mine from college, Talia Santos. She works for Newsline. This is Coach Haskins, and you may recognize my teammate, Dean Bishop. Dean: Hey. Coach: Hi. Talia: Nice to meet you both. Coach: Would you excuse us for a moment, please? Talia: Sure. Coach: Look. I don’t think it’s such a good idea to talk to the media right now. Dean: Yeah, you’ve got that right. Nick: Coach, I just don’t get it. Why would anybody try to do this to me? Coach: Well, we’re going to find that out. Now, I don’t want to worry you, Nick, but I’ve been getting some pressure from the Soccer Federation. Nick: What do you mean? Coach: They want you to sit out the game next week. Dean: No! Nick: They can’t do that! Coach: Yes, they can. Nick, I know how badly you want to play, and, frankly, I don’t think we can win without you. Unit 6 Bad News Video 1 Talia: I don’t think he did it. Tony: What do you mean? Talia: Nick. I don’t think he did it. I have a feeling. Tony: And you have that feeling because… Talia: Well, for one thing, he told me he’s innocent. Tony: And you believe it. Talia: As a matter of fact, I do. This could all be a mistake … or something… Something is funny here. He’s a soccer star. Making money is not a problem for him. Amy: But gambling may be a problem for him. Tony: Yes, have you ever thought about that? Amy: He might owe a lot of people money. Tony: And sometimes people do things just because they can. Take it from me. I’ve seen a lot of people do stupid things. Even rich, famous people. It may not always make sense. Talia: But, except for that tape, we have no proof. Tony: We had no proof. We have it now. Amy, tell her. Amy: Sorry, Talia. The audit of Nick’s bank account came in. He deposited fifty thousand dollars in his bank account a week before the qualifying match. Talia: Oh, my gosh. What? Let me see that… I’m not going to stop investigating. There might be a good explanation for this. Video 2 Tony: You can keep investigating, but after looking at this bank statement, we have no choice. We’re going with this story tonight. If we don’t, the competition may beat us to it. Amy: You’ve got to admit, Talia, it doesn’t look good. Talia: I keep telling myself we are missing something. Things aren’t always as they seem. Tony: And sometimes things are exactly the way they seem. Talia: I just don’t think that’s true in this case. Tony: You just may be too trusting to be a reporter. Reporters have to be skeptical. Are you sure you’re all right working on this by yourself? Maybe you should work with John Donnelly. Talia: No. I can do this myself. I promised Nick I’d be fair. I promised you I wouldn’t let my emotions color my judgment. And I promised myself I’ d do a good job. Tony: OK. But if you let me down, I’m giving the story to John. Talia: Thanks, Tony. I’ll be fine. You won’t be sorry. Unit 7 An Endorsement Deal Video 1 Talia: There you are! Nick, are you gonna stop lying to me? Nick: Hello, Talia. And how are you? Would you like to have a seat? Talia: No. Actually I prefer1 to stand. Nick: OK, whatever2. So now what’s going on? Talia: This! Fifty thousand dollars appeared in your bank account just before the qualifying match. Fifty thousand dollars! Nick: So? Talia: So? So that’s exactly the amount of money they say you accepted for throwing that game3. Nick: It’s also the exact amount of money I got for endorsing4 a new line5 of athletic shoes. Talia: Oh, really? Nick: Yes, really. They’re going to be called Kicks. They’re coming out6 next year. “Kicks:They’re cooler7 than your old shoes.More comfortable, too.And they’re less expensive than they look. Come and get your Kicks8!” Talia: Stop! I get it. Now, what was I saying? Oh, yes. Can I call your agent9? I wanna confirm10 this “endorsement deal”. Nick: Except11, I didn’t use an agent. Talia: No agent? What a surprise!12 Video 2 Nick: Talia, this is what happened. Talia: Ooh, here comes another story. Nick: It was about 10 o’clock one morning. I was having something to drink at the juice bar here. Jackie: Excuse me, aren’t you Nick Crawford? Nick: Yes, that’s right. Do I know you? Jackie: No, not yet, that is. I’m Jackie Baker. I’m the VP13 of Marketing for Kicks Shoes. Nick: Uh-huh. Jackie: And I have a very interesting proposition14 for you. Nick: Keep going. I was listening. Jackie: Why don’t we meet at my office tomorrow? Let’s say15, 12:30. We can have lunch nearby, and I’ll tell you about the deal. Nick: She offered16 me this deal. Fifty thousand dollars just to endorse a new line of athletic shoes, and I agreed to wear the shoes next year when I play. Talia: That’s it? Nick: Basically17. Talia: Hmm. Nick: Well, that’s what happened. I’ve still got her business card. You can call her yourself if you like. Talia: Jackie Baker, Kicks Shoes. OK, I’ll call her. You know, on second thought18, I’d rather pay her a visit19. Unit 8 No One by That Name Video 1 Talia: Hello. I’m here to see Jackie Baker. Receptionist: Hmmm. I don’t think… I know who you want. Jack Baxter. He’s on the third floor, 301. Talia: No. I’m here to see Jackie Baker, Ms. Jackie Baker. Receptionist No, definitely not. There's no one here by that name. Talia: This is the Gower Building? 119 Gower Street? Receptionist: Yes. But like I said, there’s no Jackie Baker here. Talia: Well, maybe she’s no longer here. Maybe she used to work here. Receptionist: I don’t think so. I’ve been here for ten years. Ten years too long, I might add.… Someone named Jacob Banker used to work here. Funny, he was an architect, not a banker. Anyway, he was on the 2nd floor. Are you sure you’re not looking for Jacob Banker? Talia: No. No. The name is Jackie Baker. She’s a VP at Kicks Shoes. Receptionist: Now I really don’t know what you’re talking about. Kicks Shoes? Hold on a second. I’m sorry, but I’ve never heard of Kicks Shoes and they’re not in our directory. Are you sure you’re in the right place? Talia: No. I’m not sure where I am. In fact, I’m not sure about anything anymore. Video 2 Talia: Oh, no. My cell phone is dead. Can I use your phone for a moment? Receptionist: You seem really angry. Are you going to yell at someone? Talia: I don’t know. Maybe. Probably… Yes! Receptionist: In that case ,be my guest. Just dial 9 first. Receptionist: Uh-oh. Someone’s in big trouble. Nick: Hello. Talia: Hello, Nick. It’s Talia. Remember me? Nick: Of course I remember you. Talia: I wasn’t sure. You seem to have trouble with names. And faces. And facts. Nick: Really? I used to have a good memory. I remembered you, didn’t I? Talia: There is no Jackie Baker here. There has never been a Jackie Baker here. And, to make matters worse, they’ve never even heard of Kicks Shoes. Nick: That’s ridiculous! You’ve got her business card. You’re at the Gower Building? Talia: That’s right. Nick: But I met Jackie there. I met her there. She took me to lunch… Have you tried calling her? Talia: I called before I came, but I got voicemail. One of those messages like, “The person you are calling is not available”. I thought it was odd. Nick: Look, Talia, I don’t know what I can say. I’m telling the truth. Talia: Well, someone is lying. And if you think you’re gonna see a good story on Newsline, you’re wrong! Good-bye, Nick. Receptionist: Oh, that was good. Unit 9 No Help for Nick Video1 Nick : Jackie Baker, please Receptionist: Oh, I'm sorry. But there's no Jackie Baker here. Nick : Do you mind if I look at that? Receptionist: Not at all. Have a look. Let me guess. You're Nick. Nick: That's right, but ... how did you know? Receptionist: Oh, you' re famous! Nick : Oh. Do you follow soccer? Receptionist: Soccer? No, never watch it. I was listening when that woman called you. I overheard everything. Nick : Well, that's great. Receptionist: She was really angry. Wow! Nick : I know. I know. Say, do you know what time it is? Receptionist :Nearly five. I was just getting ready to leave when you arrived. Nick : It's probably too late anyway. The news is going to be on in an hour Video2 Receptionist: So Nick, is there anything else I can do for you? Nick: Yeah, maybe. Could I speak to someone else at Kicks? Receptionist: Excuse me? Nick: Kicks shoes,,may i speak to someone else at Kicks shoes? Receptionist: Sorry, Nick, but there’s no Kicks Shoes here, either. In fact, I’d never even heard of them before today. Nick: I don’t understand. Receptionist: Cheer up. Things can’t be as bad as they seem. Nick: No? Receptionist: Maybe you could describe this Jackie Baker to me. Nick: Great. Thanks. She’s, uh, about as tall as you are. She’s got long black hair. She wears glasses. Oh, she was wearing a nice business suit when I met her here. She looked like an executive. Receptionist: And she’s got blue eyes? Nick: Yes! Do you know her? Receptionist: No, I was just trying to help. Sorry I don’t know her at all. Unit 10 In the News Video1 Patty: Hey, Nick. It's good to see you again. What can I get for you? Nick : Could I get a large pineapple and strawberry smoothie? ? Patty: Coming right up. Is everything all right? Nick : My life is a mess! And just when I thought things were going great. Patty : What's the matter? Did you get hurt? Nick : Yeah, I got hurt. But not on the soccer field. Patty: Really?
