Questions 32 - 34 refer to the following conversation.
M-Au I just got a call from Mr. Benson, the owner at 488
Oak Street, where we're doing that big interior renovation.
He was a little upset. He says the wrongcolor countertop has
been installed in his kitchen.
W-Am That's strange. I placed the order for that countertop
myself. It was white marble, if I remember correctly. I'd
better order a replacement immediately.

ordering him a new one right away.

W-Br I know. I really hope this will help boost our sales.
The chef teaching the class will be using a lot of the
equipment we sell here in the store, so hopefully the

W-Am Yeah, she seems very approachable. Her last job
was with a computer manufacturer, so I think she's a really
good fit for the company. So, how did the new product
launch go?

North America. I'm actually going there next week.

W-B, Hi, Jin-Sung. Oh, I was wondering ... have you
noticed how cold it's been here in the coffee shop lately?
M-Cn Actually, yes. I wonder if it's because the side door
hasn't been closing properly. That door should close
automatically. Maybe a hinge is broken or needs to be
adjusted.
W-Br Well, I'm really concerned about the temperature.
Our customers don't want to sit in a cold coffee shop! I’ll
try to get a repair person to come and fix it today.

M Au Oh ... OK. My manager here can help you. Mr.
Jensen?
M-Cn Sure. Sorry about the confusion. That camera just
went on sale today, and we haven't changed the price on our
display yet.
W-Br Oh, that's good to hear. I 'd like to buy it then.

wrong type of toothbrush. I have a pamphlet about that ...
uh, here you go. This has some useful recommendations.

would be a big decision for me, though, so I’ll need to think
about it.
W-Am Well, we'd really like to fill the position this week.
M-Au OK, I understand.

playground.

our colleagues during lunch. I'll talk to them tomorrow
about joining the team.
W-Am Great, thanks Amelia! We need ten people to make
a full team.

thing before you go.
M-Au OK, sure. Oh ... Last time I was in the stockroom, I
noticed that we've sold out of a lot of sizes in this style. I'll
go look, but it might be a good idea to ask the customer if
she'd be interested in a different style.

M-Cn Ms. Sorensen. It's Tony Reed calling from e-Energy

our energy management software.

energy bills are quite substantial. We're always looking for
ways to cut energy costs.
M-Cn~ Well, our software automatically controls the
lighting, heating, and cooling of multiple rooms, as well as
the energy needed for operating machines. It redirects the

company. I checked your Web site ... Can I reserve the Rose
Hall for May fifteenth?
W-Am Let me check the schedule ... I'm afraid the Rose
Hall's unavailable that day. The Sunflower Hall is available.
It's 50 dollars more expensive than the Rose Hall, but it's
larger.
M-Cn Hmm, that's OK. The Sunflower Hall should be fine.
I also had a question about food for the dinner. Can you
recommend a good caterer?

Questions 65 - 67 refer to the following conversation.
M-Au Michelle, thanks for agreeing to lead this afternoon's
meeting with me. One topic I think we should discuss with
the staff is factory productivity. We haven't met our quotas
for lightbulbs for a few months.
W-Br I know. Productivity hasn't been stable recently. We
had a month of strong production, but the next month was
the lowest we've had in a year!
M-Au Right... So at today's meeting, let's focus on the
month when productivity was very low.
W-Br I know that our bulb manufacturing machines broke
down several times that month. We should probably have
all of them inspected.

meeting?

Questions 68 - 70 refer to the following conversation.
W-Am~ Hi, Corey. I wanted to talk to you about the way
we currently conduct hiring for the firm. I was thinking that
we could reduce our workload in the human resources
department by reducing the number of steps in the hiring
process.
M-Au Well, we have to be sure we hire the right people.
We can't eliminate the phone call ...
That's the best way to decide who we should bring in for
interviews. But we could stop doing a group interview.
W-Am I agree. Honestly, those haven't provided much
information about job candidates in the past.
M-Au Good point.
W-Am OK, Let's work on a presentation to show Mr.
Kobayashi our idea.
M-Au All right.

Questions 77 - 79
Glad to see everyone's back on the bus. I hope you've
enjoyed today's tour of Rosedale so far. City Hall is one of
my favorite stops. You may not have heard me say it, but
our city hall is notable as the biggest government building
in the nation. In a few minutes, we'll arrive at Carpton
Market It has some of the city's best local food. You'II
have time to explore the market on your own-but the bus
leaves at three P.M. I'll be walking around too, so join me

Questions 80 - 82
Recently we conducted a market survey about our new
phone application called Minimarket. Well, we found that
people of all ages like the idea of using their mobile
phones to order groceries. However, there has been one
consistent complaint about the app. According to users, the
process for ordering groceries with this app is too
complicated. So, we invited Lupe Gonzalez here to present
some ideas. She's a technology consultant who has
designed similar apps before.

Questions 83 - 85
Before you start this evening's shift, I'd like to make a
quick announcement. As you know, we've had a very
successful two months since our restaurant opened. But, of
course, that means you've all been working some very long
days and serving many customers at once. Now, we'd
originally planned to have only six waiters on our staff, but
our business is increasing. We'll be working to remedy the
situation. In the meantime, to thank you for your hard
work, we've arranged to get you all some complimentary
tickets to the upcoming music festival. Enjoy the event!

Questions 86 - 88
As you all know, when sales at Henry's Home Furnishings
dropped again last year, the executive board decided it was
time to reevaluate our brand. Our research revealed that we
were missing out on a large market-young adults-who saw
our products, especially our living room furniture, as "out-
of-date" and "unimaginative''. So we're now launching an
updated product line based on the latest trends, called
Urban Henry. Some of the furniture will even feature
wireless charging for mobile devices. Now, before the
official launch in May, I'd like you, our public relations
team, to prepare a press release to send to the usual
business news outlets.

Questions 89 - 91
Hello, this is Tom Pollard from Human Resources calling
for Wilma. We're so happy you'll be joining our team at
Moorestown Engineering. Could you come in next
Monday morning for your orientation? After, you'll be able
to meet some coworkers and have a tour of the facility. Just
to warn you, getting to our office is a little tricky right
now. The street we're on is closed to traffic because of
construction. I recommend parking a couple of blocks
away and walking. Also, I'd like to invite you to join me
for lunch the day you come. That way, you can ask any
questions you might have. Anyway, give me a call back to
confirm.

Questions 92 - 94
Good afternoon, everyone. I want to compliment you all
for your excellent work on the Peterson ad campaign. Their
company has already seen a jump in sales from the
advertisements we created! Next on the agenda, I want to
let you know about a great professional development
opportunity. We've decided to start offering
reimbursement, covering tuition and other fees, for all
employees who take classes at the local business school.
And there are lots of great options to choose from. There's
an interesting evening course called Creative Advertising
and it has earned many awards. If you have any questions,
let me know.
Questions 95 - 97
Hello, I'm calling because I can't find my sunglasses. I
think I may have left them in one of your theaters
yesterday. The sunglasses should be in a blue case-the case
could have fallen under the seat. Anyway, I was at the
four-thirty showing of Long Distance Run and was sitting
toward the back of the theater with some friends. If the
sunglasses are there, could you call me back to let me
know? You can call me at any time. My number's 555-
0129.Thanks.

Questions 98 - 100
Good morning. We're happy you've joined our team at BG
Gardening Service. I'd like to tell you about some of the
landscaping you'll be responsible for. Our gardening
company maintains the outdoor areas at the Del Ville
Shopping Complex, and you'll be doing your first job over
there today. Look at this map of the shopping complex. In
the lower-left, where Elm Road and Main Street meet,
there's a small building. You'll be responsible for the
gardens around that building. I’ll explain more at the site.
Let's head over there now so I can show you in person.
