2 Questions: What do you know about The Beatles? Where does their name come from? THE BEATLES READING EXERCISE: EXERCISE 1: Correct the spelling mistake in each line: The Beatles were an English rok band, active during the 1960s and the most commercially sucesful and critically acclaimed act in popular music. Formed in Liverpool, in 1962 the group was made up off John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. The group wirked in many genres ranging from pop ballads to psychedelic rock, incorporating classical arrangements in there songs. EXERCISE 2: Correct the grammatical error in each line: The name were inspired by the film "The Wild One." A motorcycle gang wearing black leather jackets is called the Beetles (insect). It be suggested to John Lennon as the new name for his band and he said yes, but we'll spell it Beatles, as were a beat group." They gained popularity in the United Kingdom after there first single, "Love Me Do", became a modest hit in 1962, and they acquire the nickname the "Fab Four". By 1964 they become international stars. After 1966 they produced some of their best material, includes the innovative album: Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. 2

3 EXERCISE 3: Put a suitable preposition into the gaps: Lennon was murdered his home George Harrison died Los Angeles New York City in cancer McCartney and Starr remain active. The Beatles are the best-selling band break history, and 4 decades, their recordings are still their demand. GRAMMAR POINT 1 Correlative Conjunctions W hat Are Correlative Conjunctions? They are conjunction pairs and you have to use both of them in different places in a sentence to make them work. They get their name from the fact that they work together (co-) and relate one sentence element to another. Correlative conjunctions include pairs like: both and / either or / whether or / neither nor / not but / not only but also Other pairs that often have a coordinating function (activity) include the following: such that / scarcely when / as many as / no sooner than / rather than EXERCISE: Combine the following sentences into one sentence using these correlative conjunctions. In some cases more than one option is possible: whether or / neither nor / not only but / scarcely when / as many as / rather than / as many as 1. There are never enough customers. There are too many products. 2. I d want to go to the concert. I don t want to watch it on TV. 3. Did you want orange juice or water? I got you both. 4. I arrived in the room. I had to leave again. 5. OK, you don t want pizza. You don t want pasta. No problem. 6. I ll take them both. The CD and the DVD. 3

4 In business, there is a theory called The Long Tail. What is a tail? What does the phrase mean? The Long Tail is a way to describe niche marketing and the way it works on the Internet. Traditionally records, books, movies, and other items were geared towards creating "hits." Stores could only afford to carry the most popular items because they needed enough people in an area to buy their goods in order to recoup their overhead expenses. The Internet changed all that. It allows people to find less popular items and subjects. It turns out that there's profit in those "misses," too. Amazon can sell obscure books, Netflix can rent obscure movies, and itunes can sell obscure songs. That's all possible because the Internet has taken geographic location out of the equation. SPEAKING EXERCISE: In pairs, explain the Long Tail theory to your partner. Partner should ask questions of clarification e.g. So, the Long Tail only works with the Internet. Is that right? 4

5 LISTENING 1: Exercise: listen to the audio and answer the questions 1. Who identified the Long Tail? 2. Why is the Long Tail book kind of funny? 3. What do people misunderstand about the Long Tail? 4. What does it really mean? GRAMMAR POINT 2: Dependent Prepositions EXERCISE 1: decide what preposition goes with each verb. 1. Rely 2. Protect 3. Choose for - against - between - to - with - in - at - about - on - from 4. Prevented 5. Devoted 6. Deal 7. Complain 8. Laugh 9. Confidence 10. Hoping EXERCISE 2: Put the correct verb and preposition into the gaps. 1. In 1965 people The Beatles hair. 2. I have every the new system. I am sure it will be a success. 3. The director is an immediate improvement in sales. 4. Can we him to come here on Friday? He is forgetful. 5. We our house the heavy rains and flooding. 6. I can t the two candidates. They are both very good. 7. The manager was leaving the building by protestors. 8. The company had to a strike in their American factory. 9. He is music and listens to it all day long. 10. He went to the head office and the service. 5

6 PRONUNCIATION: Short or Long /e/ Short /e/ sounds like: net Long /e/ sounds like: neat Exercise: Say these words and decide if they are short sound or long sound /e/ Meant - Fled - Meat - Met - Exit - Team - Second - Meet - Smell - Bet - Beat - Pepper - Greet - Set - Seat - Beach - Bench - Shell - Deal - Help - Bee - Be - Feel - Fell - Hell - Heal - Lend - Lean - Felt - Men - Red - Read - Said - Seed - impede - Letter - Debt LISTENING 2 Exercise: Put a preposition into the gaps and then listen to see if you were correct. So if you, if you can t think what that means strategically an economic point view, I guess the key message from, for a record label might be, get together as much of that kind stuff as you possibly can. Whether it s the outtakes, whether it s the demos, you know, just gather it all together and sell small amounts lots of things because it s economically viable do that. a band s perspective it means you ve got team. You ve got work other people. You ve got to get with a group, because you re not going make a lot money selling your music if your music is unpopular. But a combined forces, if you like, you can team and be the preferred visiting point all the people who like that kind thing and you re more likely be discovered that way. 6

We talked until two, and then she said, "It's time for bed." She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh. I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath.

12 Audio Scripts Listening 1 The long tail is a really interesting phenomenon that Chris Anderson, the editor of Wired Magazine, first identified and then wrote about in an article, and then the book came out, that s a best seller, which a lot of people think is kind of funny because it s talking about the opposite of best sellers, I guess. But a lot of people misunderstand what the long tail is about. They think what it means is: stuff that isn t popular will be profitable now. That s not what it means. What it means is, you can now make money selling lots and lots of things that aren t popular. And so the kind of key message for that is not, the Internet has come to save the day, and all of the people that make music that nobody likes are going to suddenly find it profitable. What it means is, a niche can be carved up and you can say, I m going to, I m going to gather together all of the things that are like this and I m going to make more money selling fewer amounts of more things. And I think that s a, that s a really interesting thing. Listening 2 So if you, if you can t think of what that means strategically from an economic point of view, I guess the key message from, for a record label might be, get together as much of that kind of stuff as you possibly can. Whether it s the outtakes, whether it s the demos, you know, just gather it all together and sell small amounts of lots of things because it s economically viable to do that. From a band s perspective it means you ve got to team up. You ve got to work with other people. You ve got to get in with a group, because you re not going to make a lot of money selling your music if your music is unpopular. But with a combined forces, if you like, you can team up and be the preferred visiting point for all the people who like that kind of thing and you re more likely to be discovered too. Listening 3 So how can globally popular groups like The Beatles exploit the long tail? The Beatles are experts in managing their music portfolio, even though they have not produced anything new since The group saturated the market while they were actively producing music, and built up a huge musical catalogue. Once they broke up, the challenge was to manage the long tail. This means tightly controlling access to their music. They are creative in terms of packaging and repackaging the albums into different concepts. Ballads or rock, for example. Next, they segment the market by releasing rare tracks, interviews and demo tapes. Distribution is also important and the music is released slowly to create a demand as they did through itunes, ten years after the ipod was launched. This restrictive and creative strategy introduces The Beatles to new customers, and reintroduces their music to long time fans. 12
