I haven't actually registered yet. I was told I'd be able to register today, so I hope that's OK ... I've just arrived in Melbourne. Woman: That should be fine, if you're a student. I'll need to take your details though. So can I have your full name? Student: Yes, sure. It's Melanie Mitchell. Woman: Is that M I T C H E double L? Student: Yes, that's right and that's Ms not Miss.

They'll take place on the Friday afternoon and Saturday morning but they're filling up quickly which is why you need to nominate now. Student: Right. What are the SIG's?

Lauren: Well, um, I’ll take any part-time jobs I can get. I’m really strapped for …………….at the moment. Manager: Okay, bear with me while I have a browse on our system. [Pause] Here we are. We have …………………….. at the moment, all involving quite different roles. Lauren: That sounds ……………. What are they? Manager: The first one is for a post as ……………….. It says here that experience in reception or ………………………………. is preferred, but not essential. Have you worked on a reception desk previously? Lauren: No, I haven’t. I had a baby quite young, and so I have very little work experience. Could you tell me a few more details? Manager: Yes, of course. The job will be to mainly provide quality …………….. both over the phone and in person.

Manager: That’s great. Lauren: Do you have any information about the ………….. involved? Manager: It says here that you will be expected to work several early mornings, 4 days a week. Lauren: Any other ……………………..? Manager: Yeah, you’ll have to go through a couple of weeks of unpaid training before qualifying for the post.

It also explicitly states that at least one of your working days must fall on a weekend. Lauren: I’ll have to think about that and talk to my …………………………….. Lauren: Are there any other roles beginning later in the day? Manager: Yes, there’s ………………………here for a driver. It says you’ll need a clean and valid UK driver’s license, with absolutely no exception. Lauren: No problems there. I passed my test first time and have never received any points. Manager: It also explicitly states that you must be over twenty-five and have been driving for at least six years. Lauren: That sounds quite exciting. Is there any more information? Manager: Yep, it says here that working hours are flexible, and the employers are happy to work within your ……………………. since they employ multiple drivers.

Do you want to hear about it anyway? Lauren: Yeah, can’t do any harm. Manager: Okay, so it’s a post for a cashier in a cinema in the centre of town.

Manager: Yes, sure. It says that you’ll be required to sell and ……………………………., and provide ………………...

The building where you bought your tickets is the New Barn, immediately to your right, and we’re now at the beginning of the main path to the farmland - and of course the car park is on your left. The scarecrow you can see in the car park in the ………….., beside the main path, is a traditional figure for keeping the birds away from crops, but our scarecrow is a permanent sculpture. It’s taller than a human being, so you can see it from quite a distance. If you look ahead of you, you’ll see a maze. It’s……………… the New Barn, beside the side path that branches off to the right just over there. The maze is made out of hedges which are too tall for young children to see over them, but it’s quite small, so you can’t …………………..in it! Now, can you see the bridge crossing the fish pool further up the main path? If you want to go to the café, go towards the bridge and turn right just before it. Walk along the side path and the cafe’s on the 38 first …………. you come to. The building was originally the schoolhouse, and it’s well over a hundred years old. As you may know, we run skills………………here, where you can learn traditional crafts like woodwork and basket-making. You can see examples of the work, and talk to someone about the courses, in the Black Barn. If you take the side path to the right here, just by the New Barn, you’ll come to the Black Barn just where the path first bends. Now I mustn’t forget to tell you about picnicking, as I can see some of you have brought your lunch with you. You can picnic in the field, though do clear up behind you, of course. Or if you’d prefer a covered picnic area, there’s one near the farmyard: just after you ………………, there’s a covered picnic spot on the right. And the last thing to mention is Fiddy House itself. From here you can cross the bridge then walk along the footpath through the field to the left of the farmyard. That goes to the house, and it’ll give you ………………………. of it. It’s certainly worth a few photographs, but as it’s a private home, I’m afraid you can’t go inside. Right. Well, if you’re all ready, we’ll ……………………. on our tour of the farm. EX3:C11T2 39 Now, a word about the layout of the building. The auditorium, stage and dressing rooms for the actors are all below ……………. Here on the ground floor we have most of the rooms that the public doesn’t see. The majority are internal, so they have windows in the roof to light. Standing here in the foyer, you’re probably wondering why the box office isn't here, where the public would expect to find it. Well, you might have noticed it on your way in - although it's part of this building, it’s next door, with a ………………. from the road. For the theatre manager's office, you go across the foyer and through the double doors, turn right, and it's the room at the end of the ……………., with the door on the left. The lighting box is where the computerised stage lighting is operated, and it’s ……………… the building. When you’re through the double doors, turn left, turn right at the water cooler, and right again at the end. It’s the second room along that corridor. The lighting box has a window into the auditorium, which of course is below us. The artistic director’s office is through the double doors, turn right, and it’s the first room you come to on the right-hand side. And finally, for the moment, the room where I’ll take you next - the relaxation room. So if you’d like to come with me ... 40 KEY 41 Ex4: C11T4 42 43 UNIT 10: LISTENING PART 2: MULTIPLE CHOICE Ex1:C8T4 44 45 Ex2: C7T1 46 47 Ex3: C7T4 48 49 Ex4: C8T2 50 51 Ex4: Ex1: C9T3 52 UNIT 11: PICKING FROM A LIST Ex1: C11T2 53 Hi. Great to see you! I’m Jody, and I’ll be looking after both of you for the first month you’re working here at the Amersham Theatre. I’ll tell you something about the theatre now, then take you to meet two of the other staff. It’s an old building, and it’s been…………………… several times. In fact, as you can see, we’re carrying out a major ……………….. at the moment. The interior has just been repainted, and we’re about to start on the ……………..of the building - that’ll be a big job. The work’s running over ……………., so we’ve had to postpone installing an elevator. I hope you’re happy running up and down stairs! When the theatre was built, people were generally ……………..and shorter than now, and the seats were very close together. We’ve replaced them with larger seats, with more legroom. This means fewer seats in total, but we’ve taken the opportunity to ……………..seats that can easily be moved, to create different acting spaces. We’ve also turned a few ………... over to other purposes, like using them for meetings. We try hard to ………………….. members of the public in the theatre. One way is by organising backstage tours, so people can be shown round the building and learn how a theatre …………... These are proving very popular. What we’re finding is that people want to have lunch or a cup of coffee while they’re here, so we’re looking into the possibility of opening a cafe ………………….. We have a bookshop, which …………… in books about drama, and that attracts plenty of customers. Then there are two large rooms that will be decorated next month, and they'll be available for hire, for conferences and ………………, such as parties. We’re also considering hiring out costumes to amateur drama clubs. Now I want to tell you about our workshops. We recently started a programme of workshops that anyone can join. Eventually we intend to run courses in acting, but we’re waiting until we’ve got the right people in place as ……………. That’s proving more difficult than we’d expected! There’s a …………… to learn about the technical side of putting on a production, and our lighting workshop has already started, with great success. We’re going to start one on sound next month. A number of people have enquired about workshops on ……………., and that’s something we’re considering for the future. A ………………… is the workshop on making puppets - we happen to have someone working here who does it as a hobby, and she offered to run a workshop. It was so popular we’re now running them every month! 54 Ex 2: CA12T7 55 56 UNIT 12: MATCHING Ex1:C9T3 57 Ex3: C11T3 58 59 Ex4: C11T4 60 61 UNIT 13: REVIEW Ex1: C10T2 62 63 Ex2: C10T3 64 65 Ex3: C10T4 66 67
