Текст аудирования:
Очень мало людей не знают имя Джоан Роулинг, автора серии книг «Гарри Поттер». Она известна во всем мире, и ее книги продаются в миллионах экземпляров по всему миру. Дж. К. Роулинг - одна из самых успешных писателей в мире. Итак, как она стала такой?
Роулинг родилась около Бристоля, в Англии. В детстве ей нравилось писать рассказы, которые она часто читала сестре. В школе Роулинг хорошо владела языками, но не любила спорт или математику. Она изучала французский язык и Антиковедение в Университете Эксетера, включая год обучения в Париже. После окончания университета Роулинг переехал в Лондон для работы в качестве исследователя и секретаря организации «Amnesty International» (Международная амнистия). Однажды, когда она ехала на поезде из Манчестера в Лондон, у нее появилась идея рассказать о мальчике, который ходит в школу волшебства. Как только она вернулась домой, она начала писать. Несколько месяцев спустя Роулинг отправилась в Португалию, чтобы преподавать английский как иностранный. Там она вышла замуж за португальского телевизионного журналиста Хорхе Арантеса. У них появилась дочь Джессика. Пара вскоре развелась, их брак длился всего один год.
В декабре 1994 года Роулинг и ее дочь переехали в Шотландию, чтобы быть рядом с сестрой Роулинг. В то время Джоанна была безработной и нуждалась в деньгах. В 1995 году Роулинг закончила свою рукопись для Гарри Поттера и Философского камня на старой пишущей машинке. Вскоре после этого книга была отправлена в двенадцать издательств. Никто из них не взял ее.
Через год Барри Каннингем из небольшого издательства «Блумсбери» согласился опубликовать книгу. Он сделал это после того как восьмилетняя Элис Ньютон, дочь председателя компании, прочитала первую главу и сразу попросила вторую. Во всяком случае, издавая книгу, Каннингем не был уверен, что книга принесет какие-то деньги и даже посоветовал Джоанне найти дневную работу. «Блумсбери» беспокоились о том, что молодые мальчики не захотят покупать книги у женщины-автора. Они попросили ее использовать инициалы вместо своего христианского имени. Роулинг выбрала К от имени своей бабушки Кэтлин, как второй ее псевдоним.
«Блумсбери» опубликовал всего тысячу копий Гарри Поттера и Философского камня, пять из которых были переданы библиотекам. Это был первый шаг на пути к успеху книги.
1) Джоан Роулинг начала писать рано.
2) Когда она училась в школе, она предпочитала математику другим школьным предметам.
3) Джоане понравился год, проведённый в Париже.
4) Джоанн подумала о том, чтобы написать о Гарри Поттере, когда она была в поезде.
5) Роулинг покидала Великобританию только один раз.
6) Когда Джоанна и ее маленькая дочь жили в Шотландии, они были довольно бедны.
7) Несколько издателей поняли, что книга будет успешной, как только они увидели рукопись.
8) Интерес Элис Ньютон к книге помог опубликовать ее.
9) Сначала Барри Каннингем из Блумсбери не был уверен в успехе книги.
10) Книга стала бестселлером, как только она была опубликована.

Текст аудирования:
There are very few people who do not know the name of Joanne Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series. She is internationally famous and her books are sold in millions of copies worldwide. J. K. Rowling is one of the world’s most successful writers. So, how did she become one?
Rowling was born near Bristol, England. As a child, she enjoyed writing stories, which she often read to her sister. At school, Rowling was good at languages, but didn’t like sports or mathematics. She studied French and Classics at the University of Exeter, with a year of study in Paris. After graduating from the University Rowling moved to London to work as a researcher and secretary for the organisation called “Amnesty International”. One day while she was on a train trip between Manchester and London, she had the idea for a story of a young boy who goes to a school of wizardry. As soon as she got home, she began writing. A few months later, Rowling went to Portugal to teach English as a foreign language. While there, she married the Portuguese television journalist Jorge Arantes.They had a daughter Jessica. The couple soon divorced, their marriage lasted only one year.
In December 1994, Rowling and her daughter moved to Scotland to be near Rowling’s sister. At the time, Joanne was unemployed and badly needed money. In 1995, Rowling finished her manuscript for Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone on an old typewriter. Shortly afterwards, the book was sent to twelve publishing houses. None of them took it.
A year later, Barry Cunningham from the small publishing house “Bloomsbury” agreed to publish the book. He did it after eight-year-old Alice Newton, the daughter of the company chairman, read the first chapter and immediately asked for the second one. Anyhow, while publishing the book, Cunningham was not sure that the book would make any money and even advised Joanne to find a day job. “Bloomsbury” were worried that young boys might not want to buy books by a woman author. They asked her to use two initials instead of her Christian name. Rowling chose K from her grandmother’s name Kathleen, as the second ini’ tial of her pseudonym.
“Bloomsbury” published Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in just one thousand copies, five hun’dred of which were given to libraries. That was the first step on the book’s way to success.
1) Joanne Rowling began writing early.
2) When she was at school, she preferred mathematics to other school subjects.
3) Joanne enjoyed her year in Paris.
4) Joanne thought of writing about Harry Potter while she was on a train journey.
5) Rowling left the UK only once.
6) When Joanne and her little daughter lived in Scotland, they were rather poor.
7) Several publishers understood that the book would be a success as soon as they saw the manuscript.
8) Alice Newton’s interest in the book helped to publish it.
9) At first Barry Cunningham from Bloomsbury was not sure of the book’s success.
10) The book became a bestseller as soon as it was published.
B. Have you read any of the Harry Potter books? Have you seen any films based on them? What are your impressions?
