The transcription is about a tour guide named Michael, also known as Mickey, giving instructions to a group of students on a free tour of Lisbon. He mentions that there will be a difficult walk up to the castle later in the afternoon, but offers the option to take a bus instead. He explains that the castle tour will start at five o'clock and that tickets to go inside the castle cost ten euros for adults and five euros for students. He emphasizes the importance of staying together and not taking photos while walking, and asks everyone to stand together on the same side of the street when they stop. He mentions that lunch can be organized individually or at a traditional Portuguese restaurant, which offers a discounted price for the tour group. The tour continues at three o'clock and Michael asks if anyone has any questions. Unit four. Progress test. Listening. Okay, everyone. Is everyone here? Ten, eleven, twelve. Twelve, yes. All here. Yes. Are you all students from the same school? Yes. Has everyone got a map? Yes. Perfect. Welcome to the free tour of Lisbon. My name's Michael, but everyone calls me Mickey. I've got the biggest umbrella in Lisbon. It's twelve o'clock and you're in the centre of Lisbon. Walking is easy here, but later this afternoon there is a difficult walk up to the castle. If you prefer, you can get the 737 bus from the centre and meet us at the castle gate. You must get the 4.30 bus or you will be late for the tour. We start our castle tour at the castle gate at five o'clock. We don't go inside the castle on this tour. If you want to go inside, the tickets cost ten euros for adults, but only five euros for students. The castle closes at six, so it's a better idea to go tomorrow if you want to see everything. Okay? Okay. Now, important. When I walk, please follow me. You mustn't stay behind taking photos. If you do that, the tour will take eight hours, not six. LAUGHTER Second, the streets are not very big, so when we stop, everyone must stand together on the same side, either left or right, but leave a space so that the people who live here can walk past. Okay? Okay. Now, lunch. You can organise your own lunch or you can have lunch at a traditional Portuguese restaurant at two o'clock. The meal is usually twelve euros fifty, but on this tour, you only pay ten euros fifty. You must tell me by one o'clock if you want to go to the restaurant so I can call them. Okay? Okay. The tour continues at three o'clock because there is a lot to see before we go to the castle. Any questions?
