SEMESTER I. LISTENING COMPREHENSION

Henry works in an office in town. He wants to live to be a hundred, so health is very important to him. He gets up at five o'clock in the morning and does exercises for 30 minutes. For breakfast, he eats salad and a raw egg with garlic and chilly pepper. It tastes disgusting but he thinks it's good for him. Then he runs for an hour in the park even if the weather is bad. He never goes to work by bus or by train and he thinks that cars are very dan­gerous. At the office, he washes his hands 10 times a day. His lunch is 15 sunflower seeds and one onion. He is sure that the lunch which the firm gives isn't good for him. After work, he hurries home to water the plants. He has tens of plants because they clean the air. In the evening, he never watches television because it's bad for his eyes. On Monday, he goes to a yoga class and on Thursday he goes to a vegetarian cookery class. He rarely goes to the cinema or to the theatre — there are too many germs. In summer, he sleeps in a tent in the garden. At the weekend, he goes camping in the country. But he never sits in the sun. On the first day of every month, he goes to the doctor's just to make sure that he isn't ill. After all, he doesn't want to find himself in hospital.
