1 What time is the man’s plane leaving?
F: What time shall I drive you to the airport?
M: Well, I should be there by 11.00 pm.
F: I don’t think you need to be that early. That means you will wait for two hours!
M: Ok. Let’s leave at 11.30. It’s only half an hour to get to the airport, so I’ll have an hour to get to the plane by 13.00.
2 How much does their meal cost?
M: Well, £50 is expensive for such a small meal!
F: I told you that this is an expensive restaurant!
M: I know! But we only got a salad and some chicken. The chicken alone was £35.
F: Well, it could be worse. My sister paid over £70 here last week! But they did have a great time!
3 What type of house is the woman looking for?
M: Let’s have a look in the house advertisements, shall we?
F: I looked last night. All the houses are either too big or apartments.
M: I think I saw exactly what you want on the internet last night. It had a lovely garden.
F: Well, if it’s a one-bedroom house that isn’t expensive, I think it’ll be great!
4 What does the man need to buy?
F: Can I help you, Sir? Are you looking for summer clothes? Our T-shirts are on sale.
M: Um. No, actually I’m looking for something a bit warmer.
F: Well, the trouser department is here, and upstairs is the jumper department. My colleagues will be there to help you.
M: OK. I’ll go upstairs then. Thank you for your help.
5 What was the weather like at the weekend?
F: Hi Jim! Did you have a good weekend in the countryside?
M: Great, thanks. The weather couldn’t have been better!
F: Oh, I thought the forecast was for a cloudy rainy weekend in the South.
M: Yes, but luckily they were wrong. I spent the whole weekend outdoors! Not like the last time we were there when it snowed all day.

M: I know most of you are interested in going on tomorrow’s class trip so here’s everything you need to know about it.
As our last visit to The Arts Museum was so popular, (6) I’m glad to say we’re going to The Music Museum this time.
I know we usually travel by train but a coach will be much faster this time. (7) The coach leaves at 8.30 am so we must have everyone on it by 8.20 at the latest. Please try not to be late.
We are going to meet at 8 o’clock (8) outside the library. This is the building opposite the gym.
(9) You can have your own snacks with you and you can buy water and drinks at the museum. No food will be served during our visit. (10) Tickets cost £9.50 but as we are a large group, we get a £3 discount, so that’s £6.50. Make sure you bring the money at the time of the visit if you haven’t paid already.

B: Hi Paula. I’ve got some free tickets so some of us are going to the cinema. Are you free tonight?
G: Yes, I’d love to come with you. Who else is coming?
B: I wanted to ask Sarah and her brother but as he’s sick, they wouldn’t come – (11) so there’ll be three of us from my basketball team and you.
G: So who gave you the free tickets?

G: (15) I think we should be there at around 6.30 to have time for a coffee too.

16 You will hear a woman talking to her friend about her new car. Why did she sell her last car?
M: So, you’ve got a new car, Susan?
F: Yeah, do you like it?
M: It’s great!
F: Thanks! I was always late with my old car. It kept breaking down. I had it for 14 years.
M: And you always had to repair it, didn’t you?
F: Yeah. I really needed something newer.
17 You will hear two friends talking about the man’s future plans. What is the man going to do?
F: So do you think you’ve decided?
M: I loved football at school, but it isn’t useful for job searching. I’ve always dreamt of living in Spain and my friend Luis told me there are quite a few jobs there. So I guess knowing Spanish will help a lot. I even thought about going back to university but I couldn’t find anything I really liked.
18 You will hear a couple talking about a video. What’s the video of?
F: Look how happy Lindsay is. They are jumping into the pool and laughing…
M: Look, she’s racing with Sam to get to the cake first…
F: She really enjoyed it. I can’t believe she’s 12 already. Remember the summer in Italy? Well, I didn’t think we could have a better time than that.
M: But we certainly did.
19 You will hear a woman calling a friend. What’s her problem?
F: I feel awful! I got stuck in traffic. There are no buses today. I couldn’t find Harry’s phone number so I’m calling you. Do you happen to know if there’s any other way to his house? Oxford Street is too busy and I’m afraid I’ll get lost if I turn into Madison Road. Please start without me. Call me back, will you?
20 You will hear a woman talking to her friend about a present. What did she get?
M: Did you get anything nice for your birthday, Mia?
F: Well, John got me the best present this year. We’re going over to his parents’ house tonight. His whole family is going to be there. I think he’s going to give me a ring. Anyway, look…
M: Oh, that’s lovely! Dresses always look great on you!
F: He knows what colour I like and it matches my favourite boots.
