Questions 41 through 43 refer to the following conversation.

(M-Cn) 41
You must be Jocelyn, the new accountant. I'm Andrew Wong — my office is right
next to yours. Let me know if I can help you with anything.
(W-Am) Thanks. I appreciate that. 42
I was wondering where people go for lunch. Is there a
cafeteria here?
(M-Cn) Unfortunately, there isn't one in our building, but 43there's a cafe next door. A lot of us
go over there around noon. Why don't you join us today?
(W-Am) That sounds great. I have a training session this morning, so I'll meet you there as soon
as it's finished.
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Excuse me, I bought this jacket here last week, but when I got home, I realized that one
of the buttons was missing. 44 I'd like to exchange it for another one.
(M-Au) I'm sorry about that. 46This jacket has been very popular this season and, unfortunately,
we're sold out of them right now. Can I show you some other jackets?
(W-Br) Actually, I really like this jacket. Do you know if you'll be getting more of them in the
store soon? (M-Au) Yes, but 44
let me check the computer to see when they're arriving. I'd be
happy to put one aside for you once they come in.
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Divya, I have a question about the client
appreciation banquet.47 Do you know how many people we can invite this year?
(W-Br) 48 I'm still waiting to get a confirmation from the South York Hotel that we can use their
ballroom. If it's available, we can host as many clients as we like.
(M-Cn) Oh, OK. Please let me know as soon as possible. 49
I'd like to send out the invitations
well in advance.
Questions 50 through 52 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Good morning, I'm Susan Cho. 50
I'm here to perform the safety inspection of your
assembly plant.
(M-Au) It's nice to meet you. I'm Richard Tillman, the factory floor manager. I announced your
visit at yesterday's general meeting, so everyone should be ready for you.
(W-Am) Good.51I brought a checklist of all the areas that I need to look at. It includes some
questions for the assembly line supervisors.
(M-Au) That's fine. 52 Let me take you around and introduce you to them.
Questions 53 through 55 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Carlos, 53
we ordered more test tube labels for our lab, didn't we? Have they come in
yet?
(M-Cn) I placed an order last Tuesday, but it hasn't been delivered yet. The supplier has
promised to deliver them by the end of the week. 53 Do you have enough labels for today?
(W-Am) I don't think so. 54I have to prepare a lot of samples for testing.
(M-Cn) Hmmm, that's a problem. Why don't we try asking one of our coworkers? I'll call
55

Maryanne in the second-floor lab and see if she can lend us some.
Questions 56 through 58 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) 56 Dr. Lee wants us to enter the medical records of our patients into the new database. Do
you think we can start today?
(M-Cn) That's a lot of files — so 57
why don't we take turns entering the data? That way one of
us will always be at the front desk to greet patients when they get here.
(W-Br) That's a good idea. I can't wait until the records are in the new system. 58It'll be so much
easier for us to look up information about our patients when they call for an appointment.
Questions 59 through 61 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Ms. Weiss? 59
I'm really enjoying this exhibit of your paintings. I especially like the
large landscape of the desert.
(W-Am) Thank you. I've recently returned from a trip to North Africa. Most of my paintings in
this gallery were influenced by my visit there.
(M-Au) How interesting. 60 Is it possible to buy your artwork? I'd love to purchase the landscape
for my office.
(W-Am) I'm sorry but I've already promised this painting to another customer. But I have a
similar one at my studio. 61I can e-mail you a picture to see if you'd be interested in that one
instead.
Questions 62 through 64 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) 62
I'm calling from technical support to let you know we'll be replacing your computer
next Thursday. The installation will take about two hours. Will there be a time when you won't
be using your computer that we could come by? (W-Br) Well, actually, I won't be working next
Thursday, so any time would be fine. 63 I have one question though — will you transfer all of my
files to the new computer, or should I make backup copies before you come?
(M-Au) We'll copy all of your files and put them on the new computer for you. But when you
first log on, you'll need to choose a new password. 64
I'll leave instructions for how to do that on
your desk.
Questions 65 through 67 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Hello, Mr. Whitman? This is Susan Wright, the editor of Mountain Ridge Magazine. 65

I'm calling because I'd like you to write an article for our publication. We've seen previous
articles you've written on rock climbing, and we're impressed with your work.
(M-Au) I'm glad to hear that. I've been reading your magazine for many years, so I'm excited
about the opportunity to write for you. 66
Could you give me more details about the subject you
want me to write about?
(W-Am) We'd like you to review some rock-climbing equipment that's just come on the market.
67
We'll send you the equipment you'll be reviewing. If possible, I'd like to have the review by the
end of the month so we can include it in our August issue.
Questions 68 through 70 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Sarita, this is Robert Pierson from the marketing department. I sent you my department's
budget proposal for next year. Unfortunately, I made an error in my calculations. 68
I was
wondering if the proposal has been reviewed yet or if there's still time for me to make a
correction.
(W-Am) Well, the budget meeting isn't until this afternoon, so you still have time to make
changes.
(M-Cn) Oh, excellent. 69
I almost forgot that my department's planning to hire an additional
project manager, so I want to increase our budget request by five percent.
(W-Am) No problem.70 Why don't you give me the details and I'll revise the document before I
make copies for the meeting.
Questions 71 through 73 refer to the following telephone message.
(M-Au) Hi, Robin, it's John. I'm calling to let you know that I'll be a little late getting to the
office today. My water heater suddenly stopped working, so I called a repairperson to come and
fix it.71 I'm waiting for him to get here. Unfortunately 72
this means I won't be able to attend the
sales meeting at nine thirty. 73
There are copies of the meeting agenda on my desk—could you
hand them out at the meeting? Thanks so much.
Questions 74 through 76 refer to the following radio advertisement.

next week in the west parking area. Because of the reduced number of available parking spaces,
78

I'm happy to report that our new children's footwear line has been an amazing success! In only a
few short months, it's become our best-selling line of shoes. In fact, 87
they've become so popular
that we've decided to start selling them abroad next year. 88
We've hired an international
marketing consultant based in Singapore to give us expert advice on marketing our shoes
overseas. 88
Her name is Maggie Tan, and we've arranged for her to join us today to talk about
some of the challenges of breaking into a new market.
Questions 89 through 91 refer to the following announcement.
(W-Am) Good evening, everyone. 89 Welcome to this special celebration in honor of Dr. Anthony
Heller, who is retiring after 35 years with the Society for Environmental Sciences. Now, there's
no doubt that 90 Dr. Heller is best known for his distinguished work as the director of the research
center. But, as some of you will remember, Dr. Heller began his professional career as a field
biologist. 91
Now that he's retiring, he plans to write a nature column for the Hartland Daily
newspaper. His first column on common fish found in the Hartland River, will appear next
month.
Questions 92 through 94 refer to the following excerpt from a meeting.
(M-Cn) So, now I'd like to talk a bit more about the upcoming NatTech Technology Conference
in Vancouver. This year, 92
we're planning to send three reporters to the conference. Keep in
mind that this is one of the biggest industry events of the year, and as a leading technology Web
site, we need to provide our readers with comprehensive news coverage. 92, 93

selected, 94
I'll e-mail you more details about plane tickets and lodging arrangements later in the
week.

(W-Am) Welcome to Westwood City Park. My name is Ingrid, and I'll be your tour guide today.
As some of you may know, in 1920, the town of Westwood installed a number of sculptures in
this public park for residents to enjoy. Since then, 95 this town has become known for its sculpture
garden, which now contains over 50 impressive installations. In fact, 96
just last year, renowned
director Santiago Torres was so inspired by his visit here that he filmed a full-length
documentary about the park. After we've toured these beautiful grounds, 97
we'll stop at the gift
shop, where you can buy some great souvenirs. Let's get started!
Questions 98 through 100 refer to the following radio broadcast.
(M-Au) This is Rick MacEvoy, host of Auto Update, 98
your source for all the latest in
automotive news. Yesterday, industry leader Inaba Company released their newest line of high-
performance tires. According to a company representative, 99
the new model was engineered to
last longer than any other tire currently available on the market—and a number of product tests
have confirmed that the tires really do seem to be incredibly durable. 100
If you check the Inaba
Web site, you'll find a detailed comparison of the new tires with comparable models from its
competitors.
TEST 07
Questions 41 through 43 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Jacob, 41 are you sure the art gallery's ready foi the opening tonight? I was just in there,
and 42 it looked like a few of the paintings weren't very well lit.
(M-Cn) I hadn't noticed that, but we can adjust the spotlights to make sure they're focused on the
artwork.
(W-Am) OK, 43 I'll get a ladder from the supply closet and we can do that right now.
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Good evening. I'm Kira, and I'll be your server. 44Tonight we have a special that's not
listed on the menu. It's roast chicken, and it's served with mashed potatoes and sauteed wild
mushrooms.
(M-Au) That sounds delicious. But 45is it possible to have it with rice instead of potatoes?
(W-Am) Oh, I'm not sure if we can serve it that way. But 46
give me a moment to ask the chef,
and I’ll let you know.
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Roxanne, are you having any problems with your computer? Mine hasn't been working
right since 47they upgraded everyone's computer yesterday.
(W-Br) Actually, all of my programs have been running much faster. I'm really impressed with
the new software. What's the problem with yours?
(M-Au) 48I can't play any audio files. The speakers are on, and the volume is turned up as high as
it can go, but I still can't hear anything.
(W-Br) 49
Did you check the speaker cables? Maybe one of the cables is loose, and it's not
connecting the computer and the speakers correctly.
Questions 50 through 52 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Hi, this is Jim Tanaka calling from room 323.
50
I just got my bill, and there seems to be a mistake. It looks like I'm being charged for staying
three nights, when I only stayed two.
(W-Br) Let me pull up your bill, Mr. Tanaka. My computer shows that you arrived on Thursday
and are checking out this morning. Is that incorrect?
(M-Cn) I flew in on Friday, not on Thursday. If you'd like,
51
I can come down to the front desk and show you my plane ticket before I leave for the airport.
(W-Br) That won't be necessary. I'll go ahead and fix the error. Is there anything else I can help
you with? 52Perhaps call a taxi to take you to the airport?
Questions 53 through 55 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Hi, Marcus. 53 I heard the engineering team
from our Seoul office is visiting next week to discuss the plans for the new wind turbine.
Do you know who's coordinating their visit?
(M-Au) I am, actually. 54The schedule's pretty full — you didn't want to add anything, did you?
(W-Am) 55I was hoping that some of our interns could meet with them for an hour — I think the
interns would really find it interesting.
(M-Au) 55
Why don't you bring them to lunch on Tuesday? I was planning something casual
anyway.
Questions 56 through 58 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) 56I just found out that the shipment of those designer dresses from Bruni's fall collection
has been delayed in Paris — now we won't get them until Tuesday.
(W-Br) Oh no. 57We were supposed to photograph those dresses on Monday for the October
issue of the magazine. I thought the designer said she'd send them express delivery.
(M-Au) Well, she didn't, so it looks like we're going to have to reschedule. I'll call the
58

photographer right away and see if he's available later in the week.
Questions 59 through 61 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Excuse me — 59I'm interested in becoming a member of this fitness center, but I have a
question: What does the membership fee include?
(W-Am) Well, we have a pool, a running track, and many different kinds of exercise equipment.
If you have time now, 60I can show you around the facility.
(M-Cn) Thanks, but I'm on my lunch break, and I have to get back to the office — but could I
have a tour tomorrow morning, before work?
(W-Am) Of course — but if you'd like to talk to some current members about the services we
offer, 61 I'd recommend that you come back after work today, since evenings are the busiest time
around here.
Questions 62 through 64 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Carl, 62could you send me last quarter's production totals for the new microchip? I have a
meeting with the board of directors tomorrow — they'll want to know if we've increased output
enough to meet demand.
(M-Cn) Of course. I'll e-mail you the numbers as soon as I get back to my desk. But I can tell
you now that even though production's up, orders are coming in faster than we can fill them.
63
We just can't find enough people to hire who have the skills we need.
(W-Br) Maybe 64
it's time we start our own training program. It would be a big financial
investment in our workforce, but that's better than losing business.
Questions 65 through 67 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) I see from your resume that 65you have an extensive background in marketing — and tha
you're working as a manager at the Lee Harrington Agency. Can you tell me a bit more about the
projects you've worked on there?
(M-Au) Well, 66I've worked with a diverse group of clients on a wide range of marketing projects
M Most recently I led the team that developed a television commercial for Trail Run Snacks.
(W-Br) Lee Harrington is a highly respected firm — wha made you decide to apply for a
position here at the Milfort Company?
(M-Au) Oh, I enjoy my job there, but the company only has offices here in Boston. 67I'm very
interestec in the fact that the Milfort Company has offices all over the world — someday I'd like
to have the opportunity to work internationally.
Questions 68 through 70 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Hi, Mingmei? It's Sasha. I'm just calling to see if the installer has been to the
68

warehouse to put in the new deep freezer.

(W-Am) I was just about to call you. It seems we have a bit of a problem. 69The electrical supply
isn't sufficient for such a large unit.
(M-Cn) We really need that deep freezer installed. We have a large shipment of frozen shrimp
arriving in three days. Could you please get in touch with the utility company and see if
70

someone can come out right away?

Questions 71 through 73 refer to the following weather report.
(M-Cn) Good afternoon, this is Casey Davis from CRPX, with your local weather report. 71This
week's hot weather will end this afternoon, when we'll finally get some rain. You can expect
some light showers starting around one o'clock. 72The rain shouldn't affect this weekend's harvest
parade; but, if you're going to the parade, 73you may want to take an umbrella just in case. By
Monday, we'll have sunshine again, and temperatures will return to around seventeen degrees.
Questions 74 through 76 refer to the following telephone message.
(W-Am) Hi, Mr. Reed, 74this is Margo from Tweed Menswear. 75I'm calling to let you know that
we're finished with the alterations on the trousers you purchased. 76The shop will be closed next
week, so if you're unable to pick them up by Friday, you'll have to wait until we reopen on
September first. Thank you again for your business, and we hope to see you soon.
Questions 77 through 79 refer to the following announcement.
(W-Br) Good evening, 77library patrons. We'll be closing in 30 minutes. If you're working on a
public computer, we ask that you shut it down before you leave. 78If you would like to check out
any books, please proceed to the service desk near the front entrance. Also, we'd like to remind
you that 79
we will be showing a free movie tomorrow evening at six o'clock called Life in
Tuscany. Please join us for this wonderful film.
Questions 80 through 82 refer to the following radio broadcast.
(M-Cn) Welcome to What's Going On, where we give you the latest news about books, films,
and more. I'm Jim Harlow, your host. To start our show, 80I'd like to recommend Ann Nolan's
new novel called Where the Wind Settles Down. It's an intriguing story about a small town in
New Mexico in the 1930s. Of course, we're exceptionally proud of 81Ann Nolan, since she's lived
in our town for many years. I'm sure the book's going to be a best seller, and I encourage you to
pick up a copy. 82Up next, I'll have a review of the latest album release from the band Tribal
Journey.
Questions 83 through 85 refer to the following excerpt from a meeting.
(W-Am) Next, we'd like to congratulate the employee with the highest customer service
83,84

ratings at the car dealership this quarter — Jessica Brenner. Many customers have said that
Jessica's the most helpful car salesperson they've ever encountered. And not only does Jessica
keep the customers happy, but her positive attitude makes her a wonderful colleague as well. As
a token of our appreciation, 85we're giving Jessica a 200-dollar gift certificate to Pierre's Bistro.
Let's give a round of applause for Jessica.
Questions 86 through 88 refer to the following announcement.
(M-Au) I'm pleased to 86welcome everyone to the Journalism Today conference. We're happy to
have reporters joining us from a variety of different fields. But before I introduce the keynote
speaker, 87I have a note about a change to one of today's programs. The Medical Journalism
panel has been rescheduled to start later in the day. It will be held at 3 P.M. and will still be in
the Parkview Room. 88More information about today's programs is available at the registration
desk.
Questions 89 through 91 refer to the following advertisement.
(W-Br) Do you own a small business? Are you too busy to clean your office or store every
night? 89
If you want to make sure your business is kept immaculately clean, call Hartford

Questions 92 through 94 refer to the following announcement.
(M-Cn) I'm happy to say that last week our company signed an exclusive deal with Yamaguchi
Distributors in Tokyo. 92This is great news — Japan's a whole new market for us. The people at
Yamaguchi were very impressed with our new line of folding commuter bicycles. There's one
thing though — while 93
everyone at Yamaguchi loved the design, they did suggest that we
expand our color selection. So, 94before we start production, we're going to conduct a survey in
several Japanese cities to see which colors people like best.
Questions 95 through 97 refer to the following talk.
(M-Au) 95Thank you for inviting me to your directors' meeting. Mr. Shin has asked me to report
on the construction project I'm supervising in the West Tower building. At my last review
session with this board, 96you asked that we include an employee cafeteria in the plans, and you
can see here in the blueprints that we've done that. The cafeteria will be on the first floor, along
with the two conference rooms and auditorium. However, 97
with that change, the construction
firm we're using says the project will take a month longer than originally expected.
Questions 98 through 100 refer to the following excerpt from a meeting.
(W-Br) 98
Now, I've been asked to go over the process for getting budgets approved for our

100

every Monday at two-thirty.

TEST 08
Questions 41 through 43 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Hey, Tom, good to see you back in the office. I hope you had a great vacation.
(M-Au) It was wonderful.41I didn't know that staying at home could be so relaxing. Now I just
have to get back into a work routine. By the way, 42I can see from the blinking light on my phone
that people left me voice-mail messages last week, but I can't seem to pick them up.
(W-Am) That's because the new phone system went into operation while you were away. 43I'll
give you a copy of the manual — there's a whole section on how to use voice mail.
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Good morning. 44I'd like to set up a savings account with your bank.
(W-Am) Of course. We can open the account today, if you'd like. You'll just have to fill out this
form, and then 45I'll need to see some photo identification.
(M-Cn) I’m afraid I don t have my driver s license witl me. Why don't I take this form home, fill
it oi there, and 46 come back later this afternoon with my I.D.?
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Good morning, 47I was picked up at the Atwood Concert Hall last night by one of your
taxis. 48I'm worried that I left a folder full of sheet music on the back seat. Has anyone found a
red folder?
(M-Cn) Yes, actually, someone did find a folder with music in it. One of the drivers on call last
night turned it in this morning.
(W-Br) Oh, that's a relief. I have a concert tonight, so I'd like to come and pick it up as soon as
possible. 49 Can you give me the address for your office?
Questions 50 through 52 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Hi. 50I'm here to check on my order for business cards. They were supposed to be ready
sometime this week.
(W-Br) I was just about to call you — 51there's a problem with your order. It seems that we're out
of card stock in the color you wanted. We should be getting more in next week, though.
(M-Au) Oh, I was hoping to have those cards for a conference this weekend. Is there any way I
can get them before Friday?
(W-Br) Well, 52
if you choose a different color for the cards, I can get them printed up and
delivered to you by the end of the week.
Questions 53 through 55 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) 53Have you been to the new coffee shop on Arch Street? It opened just a few days ago.
(M-Cn) No, but I’ve heard that the coffee there is really good. Maybe I’ll check it out during my
lunch break.
(W-Am) If you go, 54you should ask for one of the discount coupons they're giving out for the
jazz festival this weekend. It takes 50 percent off the ticket price.
(M-Cn) Well, then I'm definitely going there for lunch. The festival has a great lineup of jazz
singers scheduled — even 55 Audrey Kane will be performing.
Questions 56 through 58 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Emily, this is Daniel Cho from the Cho Art Gallery. 56I'm calling to let you know that
we'd like to exhibit some of your paintings in next month's spring show for new artists.
(W-Am) Thanks so much, Mr. Cho. 57
Your gallery is one of the best-known in the area; I'm
really excited to have my work displayed there.
(M-Cn) We were very impressed with the pieces you submitted. 58In fact, would it be possible
for you to provide another painting by the end of the month? There should be enough display
space for one more piece.
Questions 59 through 61 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Hello. 59I'm calling because I'm interested in having some landscaping done outside my
home, at 19 Sycamore Street. Your company did a lot of work around my neighbor's house
recently, and I'm very impressed with how beautiful everything looks.
(M-Au) Yes, I remember that job — that's the Watson residence. I'll be in your neighborhood on
Monday — would you like me to stop by so you can show me the property?
(W-Am) Monday would be fine. But 60I should mention that the job here would be much smaller
than the one at my neighbor's. I just want some flower beds in front of the house.
(M-Au) That's OK. We're happy to do small jobs as well. 61After I've seen the front yard, I can
draw up some design options for the flower beds and send them to you.
Questions 62 through 64 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Ms. Delgado, 62now that it's spring and the weather's getting nicer, more of us are riding
our bikes to work. But the one rack we have outside isn't big enough now for everyone's bikes.
Could we get a second bike rack?
(W-Br) That's certainly a reasonable request. 63
I've noticed that the area outside the front of our
building is looking rather untidy with bikes parked everywhere—why don't we put the second
rack by the side entrance?
(M-Au) The side door's actually closer to the bike path that a lot of us use to get here, so that
would be very convenient.
(W-Br) Then let me call Jason in the maintenance department. I'll ask him to order the
64

additional rack and find a good spot for it by that entrance.

Questions 65 through 67 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Ajay, did you see the television show last night about how medical devices are created

Helen Jaspers
— is speaking at the science museum tonight. She'll be talking about how advances in robotics
have influenced her inventions. 66 Would you like to go?
(M-Au) 66Absolutely! When does it start?
(M-Cn) It's right after work, so 67
why don't we drive over to the museum together? You know
how limited parking is in that area — it'll be easier to park just one car.
Questions 68 through 70 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Scott, 68
your first few articles for the politics section of our newspaper have been
excellent. Even though you're relatively new here, I'd like you to cover the mayor's press
conference on Thursday.
(M-Au) That's the one about education reform in our local schools, right? 69I heard the mayor's
going to make an important announcement. When's the deadline for the article?

(W-Br) Hi, this is Margaret Morelli. I'm scheduled to meet with Mr. Peterson at 8:30 this
morning. 41I was told a car would pick me up at my hotel and bring me to your office, but it's
already 8:15 and no one has arrived.
(M-Au) Hello, Ms. Morelli. We are expecting you this morning, but not until nine. I asked the
car service to pick you up at 8:30.
(W-Br) Oh, 42I apologize. I must have read my schedule incorrectly.
(M-Au) No problem, and 43don't forget to bring some form of identification with a photo. The
security desk at the front of the building will ask for it when you arrive.
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) John, 44we have a problem with theater 4. 45People have been complaining about the
sound - they can't hear what the actors are saying. 45Can you figure out what's wrong with the
audio equipment?
(M-Au) Sure, but it might take some time. 44Do you want me to stop the movie now, or wait until
it's over?
(W-Am) So many people have complained I think we should just stop the screening. 46I'll offer
everyone in the audience a refund. Maybe some of them will use it to stay and see another film.
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) 47
I think everything's almost ready for our presentation to the board of directors on
Friday. Have the color charts been printed yet?

print them right away. We should have them by tomorrow.
(M-Cn) Great. 49Once they get here we can work on putting everything together in those nice
black folders with the company logo. I think that'll look very polished and professional.

(W-Br) Hi, Carl, I'm Helen Klein, the laboratory
supervisor. 50I'll give you a brief tour of our research facilities and then we'll start your training.
(M-Au) It's nice to meet you, Helen. Before I came over to the lab, I filled out some
50,51

paperwork at human resources. They told me to give the documents to my supervisor.

(W-Br) Thanks, I'll take that paperwork. 52While we tour the lab, you'll have to wear a lab coat
and some safety glasses. Let's get them from the supply closet now, and then we'll be on our
way.
Questions 53 through 55 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Good morning. 53I'm organizing a luncheon for an employee who's retiring from my
company, and one of my coworkers recommended your restaurant. There'll be about 35 people.
Can you accommodate that many?
(M-Cn) We do have a dining room large enough for a group that size. 54If you tell me what date
you have in mind, I'll see if it's available then.
(W-Am) Well, we'd like to hold the luncheon during the last week of August. A Thursday or
Friday would be best.
(M-Cn) The room is still available for Thursday, the twenty-eighth. I can reserve that for you
right now, if you'd like. Then 55you can look on our Web site for details about the menu options
and get back to us with your selections.
Questions 56 through 58 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Hi, 56I'm planning to completely renovate the kitchen in my house. I understand that57
I'll need a building permit from the city before I can begin construction.
(W-Br) Yes, you do need one. 57You're required to submit the building plans ahead of time, fill
out these forms, and pay a fee with your application.
(M-Cn) OK. I'll go ahead and take these forms home to fill out. I'll be back tomorrow with the
paperwork and the blueprints.

Questions 59 through 61 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Good afternoon, and thank you for calling Sunnydale Furniture, where you'll find the
area's biggest discounts on all home and office furniture. How can I help you?
(W-Am) I was looking through your catalog, and there's a desk I'm interested in. 59
I was
wondering if you have it on display in your store. It's the Putnam model.
(M-Au) I'm sorry, 60that particular model was recently discontinued. But it's been replaced with a
very similar style, called the Shipley, and we do have one of those here in the store.
(W-Am) OK, great! I'll be in town later today, so 61I'll stop by to take a look.
Questions 62 through 64 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Hello, Carolyn, this is James Martin from Oak Leaf Financial Services calling about the
account executive position you applied for. We've narrowed the field to the top three candidates,
and 62we're hoping that you wouldn't mind coming back to Vancouver next week for a final
interview.
(W-Br) That sounds wonderful, Mr. Martin, but 63could we possibly have the interview this week
instead? There's a snowstorm predicted for this weekend, and I'm afraid it might make travel a
bit difficult. Would that work for you?
(M-Cn) We should be able to do that. I'll go ahead and reschedule the interview for this week.
64
Once I reserve your train tickets and book your hotel,
Questions 65 through 67 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Lucy, 65
have you come up with any ideas for the print campaign for The Sawgrass
Company's new line of spring clothing?
(W-Br) Well, 66
from the samples the client sent us, I think what really stands out is the fabric.
The material is so lightweight. Plus, it's washable and wrinkle-resistant.
(M-Cn) Then why don't we market it as travel clothing? When we do the photo shoot we can
really showcase how the fabric would make the clothing perfect to pack and wear on your next
trip.
(W-Br) Good idea - we can come up with a travel-related scenario for each ad. 67
I couldn't book
the space for the photo session until the end of the month, so we still have time to figure out ail
the details.
Questions 68 through 70 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Excuse me, I've been coming to this fitness center for a while now, but 68
I'll be
transferring to my company's office in London for several months, so I'm going to have to cancel
my membership.
(M-Au) Did you know 69 you can suspend your membership for up to six months? If you do
that, you won't have to pay any new member activation fees when you return.
(W-Am) Oh, that's fabulous - I do like the exercise classes here, and I was planning to enroll
again when I get back from London.
(M-Au) 70

assignment. We'll keep the letter in your file, and when you return, just call us to reactivate your

(M-Cn) I'm so glad you could all join me this evening in honoring Ms. Aviva Rozen. After

our healthcare applications group was established by
Aviva. Under her strong leadership, that division has become one of our most profitable areas.

watercolor painting.

TEST 10
Questions 41 through 43 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Molly, 41
did you reserve the main conference room so that we can rehearse our
presentation for tomorrow's board meeting?
(W-Am) I thought 42 I did but the room assignment sheet says that Stan's meeting with a client in
there, so we'll have to find somewhere else to go.
(M-Cn) Well, 43 why don't we practice in the second floor meeting room instead?
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Hello, this is Ian Kowalski from the personnel department. I just got into work, and 44

when I tried to log on to my computer, my password was rejected.

(W-Br) I’m sorry about that, Mr. Kowalski. The company updated its security protocols last
night, and since then we've received a lot of calls about password problems. 45
At this point,
every member of the IT support team is working on one of those other requests so it may be
several hours before one of them can call you back.
(M-Au) That's OK. I'm leading a recruiting workshop at ten and it goes until noon — 46
so I won't
be back at my desk until twelve-thirty. Please call me then as I have another appointment at one
o'clock.
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Hi, 47
I'm here to register for the charity bicycle race — the one that takes place next
Saturday. Is there a registration fee? The flyer I saw didn't say.
(M-Cn) Registration is twenty-five dollars. Please fill out this registration form and then read and
sign the safety rules and you're all set.
(W-Br) Oh dear, 48
the rules say that my bike has to have a reflector on both the front and rear
wheels. I only have one in back but I'll get the other one installed before Saturday.
(M-Cn) And one other thing — 49 you should plan to come early that day. You'll have to pick up
a tag with your entry number on it to wear during the race. Good luck!
Questions 50 through 52 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Hello, I saw your advertisement in the newspaper for moving services. I own a small
shop and I'm opening a second location in Middleton. 50
I need to move some of my inventory
there for the grand opening.
(M-Cn) When are you looking to move? We're pretty busy, but I have some time next Monday.
(W-Am) Monday's fine. 51
The store's scheduled to open the following Saturday, so that should
give me plenty of time to set up. 52 I'm just worried about things breaking during the move — it's
all handmade pottery, so it's quite delicate.
(M-Cn) Don't worry, we have plenty of experience moving fragile items. We've moved pottery
and other breakables in the past and we’ve never had a problem.
Questions 53 through 55 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) Hi, Lisa. Since you planned the company picnic last year, I was wondering if you could
help me with this year's picnic. 53
The deadline for the Greenlaw project's been moved up so I
don't have as much time to plan it as I thought I would.
(W-Br) Of course, I can help you. We were very happy with the caterer we used last year so 54

why don't I contact them and take care of ordering the food? 55
Let me know what the budget is
and I'll make sure we don't go over it.
(M-Cn) I'll e-mail that to you right away. If you'll contact the caterer, then I can focus on
reserving a location before all the good places are booked. Thanks!
Questions 56 through 58 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Excuse me — 56
a friend of mine booked her vacation here recently and recommended
your agency. I'm thinking about going to the Bahamas in June and could use some help planning
my trip.
(M-Au) The Bahamas are a great place to vacation, but have you considered other destinations?
57
There are some excellent deals on airfares to Florida right now, and the beaches are gorgeous.
You could save a lot of money by traveling there instead.
(W-Br) Hm, that's a good tip — I think I'd better talk it over with my family before I book
anything.
(M-Au) That's fine. 58 Why don't you take a look at these brochures about Florida resort options?
Some of these spots have special activities for families, so I think you'll be able to find
something you like.
Questions 59 through 61 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Au) Hi. 59 I'm calling because I ordered a book from your bookstore's Web site last week, but
I haven't received it. My confirmation number is 3467.
(W-Br) OK, let me check our records. 60 It looks like your order was for the paperback edition —
but that won't be released for a couple of weeks. If you want the book now, I can send you the
hardcover, but it costs 15 dollars more.
(M-Au) Oh, I thought the paperback was already available. The thing is, I'm giving the book as a
gift, so I really need it by the end of the week. Could you send me the hardcover instead?
(W-Br) Certainly. And, to make sure you get it on time, 61
I'd be happy to upgrade your order to
express shipping, at no extra charge.
Questions 62 through 64 refer to the following conversation.
(M-Cn) This is Sanjiv Roy calling from Riverbend Sporting Goods. I wanted to talk about the
advertising campaign for our Pathbreaker backpack.
(W-Am) Hi, Mr. Roy. 62
We've made a lot of progress on the print advertisements, and they'll
certainly be ready in time for the launch date on April first.
(M-Cn) Actually, that's what I'm calling about. 63
We've just learned that one of our competitors
is releasing a similar product in April, so we want to start shipping the backpacks to stores
sooner than that. 62 Can you have the ads ready by March first instead?
(W-Am) I'll have to check with my project manager before I can confirm that. 64
I'll speak with
him after our call and see if he thinks that timeline is feasible.
Questions 65 through 67 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Am) Jin, I just got 65
a message from Ellen. She's having some car trouble and she won't be
able to make it to work until later this morning.
(M-Au) Oh, 66
but she was supposed to spend this morning training the new front-desk staff.
They're already here, waiting in the lobby. 66
Could you take over for Ellen? I know she was
planning to show them how to program wake-up calls for the guest rooms.
(W-Am) Well, since I don't usually work at the front desk, I don't actually know how to do that.
But 67
I'd be happy to show them around the hotel until she gets here; we can see the business
center, the gym, the dining rooms ... that'll take a couple of hours.
Questions 68 through 70 refer to the following conversation.
(W-Br) Rodney, 68 I finally finished the window display for our spring furniture collection. How
do you think it looks?
(M-Cn) Hmm. Well, it's great that you were able to incorporate so many of the new living room
pieces, 69 but it seems awfully crowded.
(W-Br) What if we push that oak bookcase all the way back against the wall, instead of having it
standing next to the sofa? That way, it'll still be visible in the background but it won't take up so
much space.
(M-Cn) That could work. 70 But you should ask Jeff. He's done a lot of window displays for us.
Questions 71 through 73 refer to the following radio broadcast.
(M-Cn) Good morning WKOP listeners. 71
This is Mike Davis with your 7 A.M. traffic report.
Traffic is slow coming into the city on Highway 1 this morning. 72
Last night's storm brought
down a few trees along the road, closing travel lanes in several places. 73
Until the trees can be
removed, we recommend that you go a different way - right now the Northern Expressway and
Biltmore Avenue are better options.
Questions 74 through 76 refer to the following recorded message.
(M-Au) You have reached the Monroeville Fishing Museum. 74
We are located on the riverfront

of the museum will be closed this week, as a new interactive exhibit is being installed. We
apologize for any inconvenience, and hope to see you here soon.
Questions 77 through 79 refer to the following excerpt from a meeting.
(W-Am) And before we leave, I just wanted to talk a bit 77
about our department's monthly
luncheon. 78
As you all know, we had to postpone last month's gathering because of that big
client project. Thankfully, we were able to pull together and meet the deadline. To reward us for
our hard work, the company has agreed to pay for this month's luncheon. But before I call the
restaurant, 79 we have to decide whether we want to do this on Thursday, the 21st, or Friday, the

(W-Br) Hi, 83 this is Mary Fuller, manager of the Wakeson Hotel. 84
There's a problem with some
of the lighting you installed in the hotel's garden last Friday. The lights around the flower beds
are fine but the spotlights that are supposed to illuminate the fountain aren't working. We
replaced the bulbs but that didn't help, so could you come to the hotel tomorrow to check the
wiring? Normally, we wouldn't be in such a rush, but 85
we're hosting a wedding in the garden
this weekend — it's in the evening and we'd like to have the fountain visible in the wedding
photos. Please give me a call as soon as you can. Thanks.

this is Philip from human resources at XT Research. Congratulations on your
new job here as a research analyst - 96
we look forward to welcoming you on Monday. Since
you're starting so soon, there wasn't time to mail you our standard employment contract, 96
