TAPESCRIPT 2
OK, today we’re going to talk about the life of Sir Isaac Newton. He was one of the most important mathematicians
and scientists of all time and his ideas and theories were not improved on until Einstein’s work, almost two hundred
and fifty years later. So, who was Newton? Well, he was born in 1642 in a place called Woolsthorpe, in England, and
he went to study at Cambridge University in 1661. At first, he studied Law, but later he became very interested in
Mathematics and Science. He later went on to teach at the university and he made some very important scientific
discoveries about light and mechanics. His most famous discovery though is probably gravity. One day Newton saw an
apple fall off a tree. He realized that the force that made the apple fall to the ground was the same force that made the
moon travel around the
Earth. He called this force gravity and this brilliant idea changed the way we look at the world. Later in his life, Newton
gave up scientific research. He never really returned to Woolsthorpe. In 1696, he left Cambridge and went to work for
the government in London. He died there in 1727.
TAPESCRIPT 3
M: Why is Sean in such a bad mood? He did well in the maths test today, didn’t he ?
F: Well, not as well as he expected, but I don’t think that’s it. I think he’s worried about his driving test tomorrow ...
M: Really? But why? He’s such a good driver.
F: Well, you know how stressed out he gets. He believes he’ll do nothing right. Maybe you should take him out in the
car one more time, just to calm him down a bit.
M: That's a good idea. What time is his test?
F: It’s at 2:30 in the afternoon I think. Let me check. ... No, actually it's at 3 o'clock.
M: OK, well, we can go for a quick drive in the morning and later I'll give him a lift to the test centre.
F: I think that would help ... a little warm-up before the test. Also, make him park the car a couple of times ... parking
makes him nervous ...
M: I will ... but ... calm down ... you’re getting even more stressed out than him now ...
F: I'm not getting stressed out ... but ... you remember how upset he was last time he took the test and didn’t pass ...
M: He’ll pass now ... I’m sure ... let’s not overreact... [fade]
