At this time it's usually much cooler and raining already． 　　W：Well, this weather will probably end soon; all the leaves on the trees are brown, and it's been pretty cold at night． 　　(Text 5) 　　W：Is the book in this bag for Mum? I didn't think she was interested in flowers． 　　M：I thought she'd like it-to give her some good ideas for the garden． 　　W：I thought you were going to get those gloves I showed you in that shop last Saturday． 　　(Text 6) 　　W：Here they come, Steve．It's the final 50 metres． 　　M：Yes, and Ricky Evans is in the lead． 　　W：He sure is． 　　M：But here comes Paul Timmons! Wow! Look at him go! 　　W：It's very close … and … It's Timmons! Paul Timmons is the new European champion! Timmons wins gold! 　　M：A great gold medal! 　　W：… and in record time, too! 　　M：Wow! Is that a new world record? 　　W：No, but it's a new European record! 　　M：An excellent performance by Paul Timmons! 　　(Text 7) 　　W：This is the most beautiful palace in the city, but it's not as big as the one we’ve just visited． 　　M：How many palaces are there in the city? 　　W：Three． 　　M：Just three? I thought there are more． 　　W：On your right, you can see a statue of Paulo Pimentez． 　　M：I'm sorry．Who's he? 　　W：He was a famous writer who lived and died in the city． 　　M：I think I saw another statue of him in the park．It was beautiful! 　　W：That wasn't a statue of Paulo Pimentez you saw in the park．There are a lot of statues in the city． 　　(Text 8) 　　W：Can I help you? 　　M：Yes, I bought the T-shirt in the sale here a couple of weeks ago．I think it was … 　　W：I see, yes … 　　M：And I’ve only worn it a few times, but when I looked at it yesterday I just thought, no, I don't like it．I don't think it suits me．The colour's not really right for me．Do you know what I mean? 　　W：Well … um, do you have any receipt, or proof of purchase? 　　M：No, no, I didn't keep the receipt, sorry． 　　W：Well, we can't normally exchange goods without proof of purchase, you see． 　　M：Oh no． 　　W：I can speak to the manager if you like, see what he says． 　　M：Well yes, if you would … because I would like to change it． 　　(Text 9) 　　M：I'm broke again．Could you lend me some money? 　　W：Broke again?

Never mind -you nearly won, so better luck next time．Congratulations to The Storm who are our winners today．The singer had such a great voice that we had to give them first place．Well done．
