Man: I’ve had a letter from the tax office about a student who worked here last summer – I wonder if you could look him up in your records. Woman: Sure, what’s the name? Man: The surname’s Jaye. First name Stephen. Woman: How does he spell his surname? Man: J-A-Y-E. Got that? Woman: Oh yes, here we are … live at a hundred and eighty-three School Road, Barnfield… Man: Yes, that’s the one. Woman: And you say he was working in Finance? Man: Uhm, Customer Service, actually. Woman: Aah – they had lots of students working for them last summer. Man: Well, the tax people want to know his exact job title – I’m not sure why. Woman: Mm, let me see … He was an office assistant. Man: Right, got that. They also want to know about his monthly earnings. Woman: Let’s have a look … five hundred and thirty-eight pounds seventy a month … Oh, sorry, he was a scale one, so that’s four hundred and fifty-seven pounds sixty. Anything else? Man: That’s fine.

Julie Davidson speaking. How may I help you? Man: Hello, This is Mark Jones from Europe Holidays. I was hoping to speak to Steven Kirby about the stationery you’re printing for us. Woman: I’m afraid Steven’s away until Friday. Man: Oh-you see I’m not very happy with the business cards and I wanted to see if I could make a couple of changes to the paper too. Woman: Would you like me to pass on a message? Man: Yes, please. The thing is, I’ve just received your proofs – the cards themselves are fine, but you seem to have misunderstood the quantities. I’m sure I asked for five hundred for each of the marketing executives and seven hundred and fifty for me but you’ve put everyone down for seven hundred and fifty. Woman: Right, I’ve made me a note of that. Is there anything else? Man: Yes, well this is my mistake really. Could you ask Steven to move the company logo further to the left? It’s too close to the address at the moment. I think that’s all for now. Thanks.

Could I speak to John Fitzgerald, please? Man: I’m afraid he’s not in the office at the moment. Woman: Well, this is Elizabeth Parnell calling. I wanted to talk to John about the meeting next week. You see, I only get back on Tuesday night from a trade fair in the States. Man: So, would you like me to give him a message? Woman: Yes, could you ask him if we can postpone Wednesday’s meeting? Till after lunch. That would be easier. I was originally going to be at ten a.m. Man: OK. I’ll ask him to change it. I’ll get back to you with a time. Woman: Thanks. And could you also ask him to add another item for discussion at the meeting? I thought we were going to talk about the revised budgets – but I can’t see this on the agenda. Man: OK. I’d better ask him to call you … Woman: Yes, please. I’m at Head Office at the moment. Can he phone me here today – I won’t be back at my own desk until tomorrow afternoon. Man: Right, I’ll give him the message. Woman: Thanks. Man: Bye. Woman: Goodbye. [pause] Now listen to the recording again. [pause] That is the end of Part One. You now have 20 seconds to check your answers. [pause] Part Two Section Two (Questions 18-22) You will hear another five recordings. For each recording, decide what the speaker’s purpose is. Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording. Do not use any letter more than once. After you have listened once, replay the recordings. A to make a complaint B to deny something C to offer assistance D to ask for advice E to express doubt F to ask for permission G to explain an action H to recommend a new policy 18 …………………………………… 19 …………………………………… 20 …………………………………… 21 …………………………………… 22 …………………………………… 答案：18 C 19 G 20 H 21 E 22 B Tapescript Section Two. Question 18 to 22. You will hear another five recordings. For each recording, decide what the speaker’s purpose is. Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording. Do not use any letter more than once. After you have listened once, replay the recordings. You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H. [pause] Now listen, and decide what each speaker’s purpose is. [pause] Eighteen Man: Hello. This is Guy Cooper from Centron Electronics here. I believe you rang for some advice about your alarm system, which isn’t functioning properly. The message I got said you weren’t sure if you needed someone to come and sort it out, or if we could advise you over the phone. Well perhaps you’d like to get back to me as soon as it’s convenient and tell me exactly what the problem is, and I’ll see what I can do. [pause] Nineteen Woman: Well, as you say, Redlon has been supplying us for years but, quite honestly, two-thirds of the complaints we receive about our products are actually due to faults in components we’ve had from Redlon. So I talked to the Production Manager and he agreed that I should look at some alternatives. Future World’s range is fine for us, and one of their customers who I spoke to recommended them highly, so that’s why we’ve changed to using them. [pause] Twenty Woman: The competition’s getting tougher, and you know we’ve facing serious problems. We need to see more benefit from the undeniably hard work we’re putting in, and this means saying no to jobs which aren’t profitable. It would be much more beneficial to put all our efforts into winning higher-margin contracts. So the way I feel you can help most is by identifying the types of contracts which bring in the income we need in order to ensure our future. [pause] Twenty-one Man: John Woods here, phoning about the project we discussed earlier. Could you give me a ring so that we can talk about it a bit more? I’ve done a few calculations and I’m beginning to wonder whether it’s really a practical proposition. I still think the project’s got potential, but there are significant additional costs which we hadn’t taken into account. So could you get back to me as soon as you can, please? [pause] Twenty-two Woman: Hello, Sally here, from Pagwell Paints, returning your call. I’m very sorry you aren’t happy with the latest consignment you’ve had from us. It’s rather strange, because following your complaint about the last delivery, we did in fact take action to change the specifications in the way you suggested. So it isn’t quite fair to say that we ignored your advice. I know it’s important to achieve the consistency that you require, but perhaps your recommendation wasn’t exactly what’s needed. [pause] Now listen to the recording again. [pause] That is the end of Part Two.

This is Mr. Lim from T. P. Consultants. We arranged to rent some computers from you for a training course in July, but they won't be needed. We've run into some problems with the training room. When it's sorted out we'll get back to you. Donald, this is Mary here. I'm trying to get the project leaders together to discuss the current delivery delays. I've provisionally booked Room W72 for Wednesday morning. Could you phone round to see if everybody can make it? Hello, I wonder if you can help me. This is Bill Kennedy on 3416577. I am phoning to see if you have any vacancies in your Accounts Department. I spoke to someone at the weekend who thought there might be the possibility of a temporary position. And I'd like to find out more about it. Hi, it's Tom Ling. You left a message asking if I could attend the directors' meeting Friday lunch time. I'm just calling to let you know that I'll be able to make it although I might be a few minutes late. I've got an appointment with the dentist earlier on, but I hope to be back in time. Dave, it's Maisy. If you're free at the weekend, would you like to come with us to the theatre. We'd like to treat you. We feel we owe it to you for all the help you've given us recently. There's a new comedy on.

This is the third time I've called about this. It's a complete waste of my time and my staffs time. When we ordered the photocopier from you, you assured us it would be installed by one of your engineers and set up ready for use. Well, all your engineer basically did is plug it in and that was that. And now every time we switch it on, we get a warning message. But we don't know what it means because your man didn't even leave us a copy of the manual. 19. Before we begin, I've been asked to tell you that Dr Jones has been delayed. That means he won't make it in time for his presentation on 'Dealing with Complaints'. Unfortunately, this means we've had to cancel the session and anyone who signed up for it should now choose between the other two sessions which are running this afternoon. Thank you. And now I'll hand you over to Kate. 20. I'm just ringing to tell you about the positive feedback we've had on the presentation you gave the other day. I really appreciate you stepping in like that at the last moment. I know you were a bit nervous, but I'm very grateful you agreed to do it. And looking at the feedback forms, it seems the only complaint was about the size of the room. So, well done! 21. I've checked with the Warehouse Manager and it seems there was a mix-up with the transport documents and your order was somehow sent to Gatwick instead of Heathrow. By the time the driver got back to Heathrow, he'd missed the next flight out. And then there was an announcement cancelling the last flight due to technical problems. Anyway, your order will be on the first plane tomorrow. 22. Hello, David. This is Tina Woodhouse. I was just calling to say I'm actually busy on the 15th, so I won't be able to see you in the morning. In fact, I'll be out all that week. So, I was wondering, rather than delaying things any longer, could we bring everything forward to the 14th? If that's OK. for you, perhaps you could call me.
