Hey Jenny!

Oh, hi Steve.

Nice to see you.

Good to see you too.

How's it going?

Fine, thanks.

I'm so glad the exams have finished.

Me too.

So, are you going on holiday this summer?

Yes.

I've decided to go to Mexico for the whole summer vacation, six weeks in total.

That sounds great.

What are you going to do there?

Well, actually, it's a working holiday.

I'm going to work at a school teaching English to children.

What about you?

I'm going to Paris for two weeks.

Are you going with your family?

No, I'm going with my best friend.

We've enrolled in a language school to study French.

That sounds like fun.

Have a good trip.

You too.

Track two.

Good afternoon, Royal Mount Hotel.

How may I help you?

Hello.

I'd like to book a twin room, please, for next week.

One minute, please.

I'll just check if we have one available.

Yes, we do, sir.

Now, I just need to take down a few details, if I may.

Yes, of course.

What name is the booking under?

My name?

Duncan Jeffrey.

That's G-E-O-F-R-E-Y.

G-E-O-F-R-E-Y.

And could I have a contact telephone number, please?

Yes.

5762-238-21.

When will you be arriving, sir?

Sometime on the evening of the 19th. Of September?

Yes, and we'll be leaving on the 23rd.

How much will that be in total?

So, that's a twin room.

For a twin, it would normally be £235, but I can give you a special rate as it's low season.

£210 for the six nights.

Great, thank you.

And how would you like to pay, sir?

We accept cash, cheque or credit card.

I'll pay cash on arrival, if that's OK.

Of course, sir.

We look forward to seeing you.

Track 3 So, what are the differences between these four hotels?

Well, the main difference is in the facilities they offer.

The Hotel Sunshine is the only one which has a gym, and it's also got one of the top health spas in the area.

It's next to a lake, so you can do water sports there.

But if you really like sailing or water skiing, then the Highland Hotel would probably be the best place because it offers great instruction programs in these sports.

Actually, I'm not a sporty person.

OK.

Erm, well, what about the Hotel Carminia?

It's a brand new hotel and it prides itself on its cinema and multimedia centre.

And then there's the Royal.

This one has a conference room, a meeting room and free computer access.

But it's not really appropriate for children.

There's not much in the way of entertainment.

Well, I'm going on holiday, not to work, and it's just my wife and me.

So I think we'll book with the Hotel Carminia, please.

Track four.

So, there's a great walking tour tomorrow morning.

Or tomorrow night we could go on the cruise round the harbour.

What do you think, John?

Well, we've got theatre tickets for tonight, so we'll be too tired for the walking tour in the morning.

But I don't fancy the cruise either.

Why not?

It'll be fun.

Look, it's a dinner cruise and it's only $12 each.

I hate the sea and I'll be sick with fear if the waves are big. And dinner?

On a boat?

I just couldn't.

But we'll be in the harbour.

Still.

Ah, what about this?

There's a bus tour tomorrow evening.

It's only $5.50 and it goes all around the main tourist sites.

Yeah, that sounds OK, but I'd much rather...

Track 5 Where shall we eat tonight?

Well, there are plenty of options.

The guide says this city has hundreds of restaurants.

What kind of food would you like to have, John?

Well, I quite like seafood.

There's the captain's table on Firth Street.

The guide gives it four stars.

Hmm, I don't know.

The hotel receptionist told me the service is slow.

But if you like seafood, there are a couple more places in the guide.

Ah, yes.

Mangin's or Joe's Cafe.

100

What about those, Sam?

101

Mangans could be a good option.

102

It's nicer than Joe's Cafe, and there are fantastic views as well.

103

We'd probably pay a bit extra.

104

Joe's Cafe is much cheaper.

105

But we're on holiday.

106

I think we should splash out.

107

That sounds great.

108

Oh, no. Hold on, it's closed tonight.

109

What a shame.

110

Shall we go to Joe's Cafe, then?

111

Yes, I suppose we'll have to.

112

I'll give them a call and book a table.

113

Can I use your phone?

114

Er, no. Sorry.

115

I've left my phone in the hotel.

116

We can ask the receptionist to do it.

117

Let's go back now and sort it out.

118

We can get changed and have a drink before dinner if you like.

119

OK.

120

Good idea.

121

Track 6 Section 1 You will hear a tourist asking for information at a tourist office.

122

First, you will have some time to look at questions 1 to 4.

123

In the exam, there will be a pause of 20 seconds.

124

You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.

125

On this occasion only, the conversation related to this will be played first.

126

Hello, how can I help you?

127

Erm, hello.

128

Is it possible to book a bus tour of the city here?

129

Of course, sir.

130

When would you like to take the tour?

131

There are tours in the morning, afternoon and evening.

132

Sometimes it's nice to see the city at night with the buildings lit up.

133

We'll be going out for dinner tonight, so we'd prefer to go this afternoon.

134

Oh, and it's for two people.

135

The tourist says that the tour is for two people, so the number of passengers has been written in the notes as two.

136

Now we shall begin.

137

You should answer the questions as you listen, because you will not hear the recording a second time.

138

Listen carefully and answer questions one to four.

139

Hello, how can I help you?

140

Er, hello.

141

Is it possible to book a bus tour of the city here?

142

Of course, sir.

143

When would you like to take the tour?

144

There are tours in the morning, afternoon and evening.

145

Sometimes it's nice to see the city at night with the buildings lit up.

146

We'll be going out for dinner tonight, so we'd prefer to go this afternoon.

147

Oh, and it's for two people.

148

Right.

149

Now, I just need some details.

150

Can you give me the names of the two people, please?

151

Yes, Susan Field and James Carter.

152

Susan Field and James… sorry, can you spell your surname for me please?

153

It's Carter.

154

C-A-R-T-E-R.

155

Thank you.

156

And can I have a contact telephone number?

157

Why do you need one?

158

Just in case we have to cancel the tour and need to contact you.

159

I see.

160

Well, my mobile number is 07988 636 197.

161

That's 07988 636197.

162

Now, can you also tell me which hotel you're staying at?

163

The Crest Hotel.

164

Oh, er, no, sorry.

165

That's the hotel we're staying in next week.

166

It's the Riverside Hotel.

167

Oh, the Riverside is a lovely hotel.

168

Are you enjoying your stay?

169

Yes, we are, very much.

170

We'd definitely recommend it to others.

171

Oh, I am glad.

172

Now, I can book you on the tour at 4pm.

173

Would that suit you?

174

Alternatively, there is one at two.

175

Two would be better for us, please.

176

Right.

177

That's booked for you, sir.

178

Two people at 2pm today, August the 14th.

179

You pay the bus driver when you get on, and it's £4 per person.

180

Thank you very much.

181

Track 7 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 5 to 10.

182

In the exam, there will be a pause of 20 seconds.

183

Now listen and answer questions 5 to 10.

184

Can I also ask you about the museum in the main square?

185

I was reading about it in my guidebook and was shocked to see that the entrance price is £10.

186

Why does it cost so much?

187

Well, the museum has the largest collection of Latin American art in Europe.

188

People come from all over the world to see it.

189

But that's not the reason why it's so expensive to get in.

190

You see, the building is very old and it needs repairs.

191

The £10 ticket cost will go towards repairing the roof and the walls.

192

I see.

193

Well, I suppose it's worth paying ten pounds to see the collection.

194

Yes, I think so too.

195

Is there anything else I can help you with?

196

Actually, there is.

197

I was wondering if you knew of any good restaurants in the area?

198

Well, there are a few restaurants near the harbour and a couple on the beach, which are nice.

199

The problem is that the smell of the fish market is quite strong down there.

200

Hmm, I don't think my girlfriend would be very pleased.

201

I know what you mean.

202

It's not very romantic, is it?

203

My advice would be to go to the next town.

204

It's bigger and the restaurant selection is wider.

205

You can get there by taxi and it only takes about ten minutes.

206

The town is quite picturesque.

207

Is it for a special occasion?

208

Yes, it's my girlfriend's birthday, so I'd like to go somewhere special.

209

Do you know any of these restaurants well enough to tell me about them?

210

Well, I know about a few of them and there are pictures in this leaflet here.

211

Oh, this one here is lovely.

212

The Belle View and it's extremely popular.

213

It has a famous chef, so it's not cheap, but the standard of the food is very high.

214

It's right by the sea and there are wonderful views if you get a good table.

215

Then there's the Lighthouse Cafe.

216

You can see the picture here, which isn't really a cafe at all.

217

In fact, it's a great restaurant and a lot of TV celebrities and actors eat there.

218

The place has been going for over a hundred years.

219

It's quite an institution around here.

220

I'm not sure about those two.

221

They sound too expensive to me.

222

I was thinking of somewhere small, not too upmarket, but with good food.

223

In that case, what about Harvey's?

224

The same family has run this restaurant for over a century and it's reasonably priced and really popular with local people.

225

Oh, and there's another family-run restaurant, Stonecroft House.

226

New owners took over a month ago and they're getting good reviews.

227

There's a new chef there and the food is meant to be very good.

228

This leaflet has the contact details for all the restaurants, so you can just call them if you'd like to book a table.

229

Great, thanks.

230

You've been very helpful.

231

That is the end of section one.

232

You now have half a minute to check your answers.
