First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to fourteen. 00:00:15,500 Now listen and answer questions eleven to fourteen. 00:00:21,660 And now we have our know your town section, where we look at what's on offer in our area. Today, John Munro is going to tell us about local food and eating out. John. 00:00:34,580 Well, most of us buy our food in supermarkets these days, but we're very lucky having a wonderful market here. It was originally on the piece of land in front of the cathedral, but at the beginning of the twentieth century, it was moved to a site by the river. When the new shopping center was built in the nineteen sixties, it found a home beneath the multi-story car park where it still is. But there are plans to move it back to its previous home by the river. 00:01:05,460 The market is now open six days a week. On Tuesday to Saturday, you can buy fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and cheese from the area, as well as a whole range of imported produce. 00:01:18,360 But if you come on a Sunday, you'll find a different market where craftspeople sell what they have made, things like bags, cards, clothes. 00:01:28,740 During the week, there are a few stalls selling more everyday utensils like saucepans and cleaning products alongside the fruit and vegetables. As well as one new stall selling antique furniture, which is proving to be very popular. 00:01:45,160 People often ask what our local dish is. As we're by the sea, they expect it to be some kind of fish recipe. 00:01:52,920 Our fish is good, of course, but there isn't one particular dish that stands out. 00:01:58,540 What we do have is an apple cake that isn't really made anywhere else. 00:02:04,240 There's a new cafe in the High Street, Barton's, which bakes them fresh every morning and serves them with delicious homemade ice cream in a choice of flavors. 00:02:15,460 Now, the harbor is obviously the place to buy fresh fish. Every morning there's a stall where local fishermen sell a selection of the day's catch before the rest goes to London or abroad. 00:02:28,390 They've been doing that for as long as anyone can remember, of course, but the harbor itself looks very different from a few years ago. 00:02:37,760 Most of the restaurants used to be at the far end, but that part was redeveloped and the restaurants had to relocate to the other end. Many of them are simply the old ones in new premises, but a couple of new ones have opened recently, so there's a good range now, both in the harbor and the town itself. 00:02:58,340 I'm now going to give you my top six places to eat in different parts of the town. 00:03:05,800 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions fifteen to twenty. 00:03:13,160 Now listen and answer questions fifteen to twenty. 00:03:19,720 So number one for me is Merrivale's, which is in one of the busiest parts of the town leading down to the harbor. It's in a side street, so it doesn't look out over the water, but it's very close, so you can take a walk after your meal and find one of the cafes with live music. 00:03:38,200 At Merrivale's, you can enjoy delicious fresh fish and seafood. The friendly staff offer very attentive service and a really enjoyable evening. 00:03:49,520 The Lobster Pot is on the main road going down to the harbor, so it also misses out on the sea view, but the food makes up for that. 00:03:58,280 It serves a huge range of fish and seafood as well as vegetarian and meat dishes, so there's something for everyone. Prices are from mid-range to fairly expensive, so it's really only for a special occasion. 00:04:13,740 Elliott's is in the city center and is a very upmarket restaurant in the evening, but during the day it serves lunch and coffee. It's on the twentieth floor above some offices, and it's a great place to sit for a while. As you can see, most of the city spread out from there. 00:04:32,360 It does get very busy though, and you may have to wait to be served. 00:04:37,900 Not far from the city center is The Cabin, which is on the canal bank. You can't park your car there. It's a fifteen-minute walk from the nearest car park, but it's very peaceful, a good place to relax away from the traffic. It's not cheap, but it's an ideal place for a long lunch. 00:04:57,600 The Olive Tree is a family-run restaurant in the city center offering beautifully prepared Greek dishes. It's well known locally and very popular. 00:05:07,880 Service can be slow when it's busy as all the food is freshly made. There's plenty of room, and on Friday and Saturday nights, the wooden floors resound with live music and dancing, which is certainly worth going for. 00:05:22,790 The last place I want to recommend has only just opened in a converted school building. The Old School Restaurant has been very cleverly renovated. The use of mirrors, plants, and the colors on the walls makes you feel as though you're in a large garden instead of the city center. There are only a few dishes on the menu, but they change every day. 00:05:46,140 So Tanya, I really... 00:05:48,920 That is the end of part two. ## 题目与答案 ### 11. 11 The market is now situated 11 The market is now situated - near the river - under a car park - beside a car park **答案**：under a car park 原文定位：When the new shopping center was built in the nineteen sixties, it found a home beneath the multi-story car park where it still is 同义替换：「is now situated」↔「where it still is」；「under」↔「beneath」 ### 12. 12 On only one day a week the market sells 12 On only one day a week the market sells - hand-made items - antique furniture - local produce **答案**：hand-made items 原文定位：But if you come on a Sunday, you'll find a different market where craftspeople sell what they have made, things like bags, cards, clothes 同义替换：「hand-made items」↔「craftspeople sell what they have made」 ### 13. 13 The area is well known for 13 The area is well known for - a fish dish - a ice cream - a cake **答案**：a cake 原文定位：What we do have is an apple cake that isn't really made anywhere else ### 14. 14 What change has taken place in the harbour area? 14 What change has taken place in the harbour area? - The restaurant has moved to a different part. - There are fewer restaurant than there used to be. - Fish can now be bought from the fishermen. **答案**：The restaurant has moved to a different part. 原文定位：Most of the restaurants used to be at the far end, but that part was redeveloped and the restaurants had to relocate to the other end ### 15.
