Tapescript (Ex. 4B)Interviewer: Do you think our modem lifestyle could be called unhealthy?Woman interviewee: Ah, yes...modern lifestyles, I think, arc pretty unhealthy... And largely because we spend too much time rushing and too much time working under stress and er... I think that we don’t have the facilities near our workplace or in our workplace to keep fit and healthy.Interviewer: So, you think it’s lack of facilities.WI: I think employers expect a lot...too much from their employees, they are always asking for better performance and more results and the result of that is that each individual person pushes himself or herself harder...er....and they neglect their own health and their own balance... sense of balance...So I think that what’s most unhealthy about the modem lifestyle is the lack of balance between work and leisure time. In Britain, the statistics show that we are the nation in Europe that works the longest hours in our full-time jobs. I think employers should be concerned about that.I also think that employers should provide facilities and time for their employees to keep fit, to relax more and even to have some rest during the day. It would be really good, for example, if in a college like ours, we had a room where you could go and lie down for an hour during the day.Interviewer: But your college has really good facilities. I have been using them myself twice a week recently...Wl: Yes, we are lucky, we have sports facilities at college, we have a gym and we have a swimming pool. So it is possible to lake exercise, but that’s an exception, it’s not the rule, and most employers push the work ethic, which is all to do with performance, performance, performance and people feel guilty if they take time to look after themselves. That shouldn’t be the case.Interviewer: But you can\'t deny that performance is an employer’s main aim?WI: A really enlightened employer would recognize the need for exercise, the human needs that people have, and the need for leisure, the need to spend time with your family and to follow your own interests. And I think that workers would actually be more efficient and deliver better results for the employers if there wasn’t so much pressure. So 1 think the biggest problem is stress and I think it comes largely from our results-oriented society.Interviewer: Would you like to change your present lifestyle?WI: Er...as for myself I’d quite like to do more exercise. I walk a lot, and I enjoy walking. In summer I play a bit of tennis. Er...but what I think I’d like to do most of all is to have a bit more time for myself, to follow my own interests and that’s difficult in a busy work schedule. So those arc the things I’d most like to do. I’d also like to...have more lime to spend with friends and family. As for the future, I think, some employers arc already learning the lesson that they have to change, but I don’t know, it’s very, very difficult to predict.Interviewer: Do you think in the future people will be more concerned about having a healthier lifestyle?WI: Er...Doctors these days try to do more preventive medicine with patients. What happens is that you are encouraged to go to the doctor for a health check, and the doctor will advise you about exercise or about diet...you know that’s quite a significant step forward. Prevention is better than cure.Another thing that I have noticed is, and I think you have noticed that as well, that more and more people are paying attention to their diet. I think in a society which is quite prosperous, where food is freely available and there is a lot of choice of different types of food, then people pay attention to a diet because they can choose...they can choose what they eat. In poorer societies where there isn’t so much choice it’s very difficult to choose what you eat, you eat what there is. You know, we have a saying, “you are what you eat\"... So if you eat lots of fattening food, you get fat; if you cat nice healthy salads and things like that, you stay a bit slimmer. So I think, diet is a... I think people are more and more concerned with diet, all the magazines focus on it, all the TV programmes focus on it, and then a lot of...
