Section 1.

Good morning, McMurray's Real Estate.

Peter speaking.

How may I help you?

Hi, Peter.

My name is Susan.

I'm calling from Australia.

I'll be moving to New Zealand soon and I was hoping you could help me find somewhere to live in Auckland.

Would be pleased to.

I just need to get some information about what you want so we can find the perfect place.

Sounds good.

Let's start with some personal details.

What's your last name?

It's Smith.

And your phone number?

I only have a mobile.

Is that okay?

That's fine.

Okay, it's 614381997.

But if you want to contact me, usually the best way is by email.

Okay, what's your email address then?

It's susansmith at post.com.

Thanks.

Now, you said you're living in Australia.

Right, in Brisbane.

Okay, what's your address in Brisbane then?

234 Beckett's, that's B-E-C-K-E-T-T-S, Road, Brisbane, 4054.

Right.

Will you be working in New Zealand?

Yes, I have a job at Auckland Hospital.

Oh, are you a nurse?

Most people assume that or think I'm a doctor, but actually I'm a chemist.

Oh, sorry.

That's OK.

When will you need the accommodation from?

Well, I don't start work until the 25th of February, but I'd like to give myself some time to settle in.

A couple of weeks would be nice.

let's say, from the 10th of February.

Our leases start from a Monday, and the Monday closest to that is the 8th of February.

Would that suit?

That's fine.

OK, let's talk about what kind of place you'd like to rent.

Hmm, I like the outdoors, so my dream would be a house that has its own garden.

Is there anything else you'd consider?

An apartment, for example?

I don't know.

They usually don't have an outdoor area.

But I guess, as an alternative, If you could find me one with a large balcony, I'd be happy.

How many rooms do you want?

Usually one-bedroom places are too small.

Two would be ideal.

Now, what would you like to have in the place when you move in?

I'm bringing most of what I need with me.

I have beds and sofas and a television, all that sort of stuff, so none of that is necessary.

Sounds like you want a partially furnished house with a washing machine.

Actually, I'm bringing that too.

All I really need in the place is a fridge.

I don't have one, so we'll definitely need one.

Okay.

Can you find something like that for around $350 a week?

Well, I'll certainly try.

I'll start looking for places that cost around $300 and see if there's anything suitable.

You definitely won't need to pay more than $400 for something like that.

Oh, that's good.

I couldn't pay more than that.

All right, I'll see what I can find.

You're working at the hospital.

Do you want to live somewhere near there?

Most people think it's strange, but I don't like living close to work.

but I'm a mad keen surfer so it's important for me to be close to the beach.

Okay.

Do you need to be near public transport?

No, I usually drive to work because I work a lot of shift work so wherever I live we'll need to have parking close to the door so I won't have to walk far at night.

Anything else?

I've heard that power bills can get quite expensive, especially in the winter.

It'd be great if electricity was part of the rent.

Okay.

Section 2 Good evening, everyone.

and welcome to the Preschool Family Centre.

It's really good to see so many parents here, and I hope this talk will help you to find out more about what we do here and how the centre works, so you can decide if this sounds the right sort of place for your child.

OK, so first of all, what is the Preschool Family Centre?

Well, basically, it's a childhood education centre for children from three months up to five years old.

but we're different from a lot of other organisations for preschool children.

We believe that the first educators of a child are their parents and so the preschool family

centre is organised as a cooperative by the parents which means it is the parents themselves who are responsible for running the centre and also for running each session.

So this means that we ask parents to attend the centre with their children on a regular basis.

In In order to make this work, we offer training for parents, teaching them the skills they need to work with children and run the sessions.

The children do all sorts of different activities – art, music, singing and games – and these are all done in groups of mixed ages because we believe that by learning to play together,

learn how to make choices and how to respect people and things.

Now some factual information.

Sessions run each morning from 9.30 to 12.30 and we have an extra session on Thursday afternoons which is solely for older children where we do some activities to help prepare them for reading before they start school.

We feel this is really important and can make a big difference when they get to school.

And now, before you enrol your child in the centre, you need to make at least five visits with your child.

This is so you are fully aware of how the centre works before you enrol.

The centres are recognised as official pre-schools and so each centre is entitled to funding from the government.

The centre is a really wonderful experience but does require some work, so I'd just like to talk about some of the commitments you will need to make if you decide to go ahead and enrol your child.

A couple of points first.

Once you and your child have settled into the centre and are familiar with how things work, you will be asked to choose a a particular job, like secretary or gardener or librarian, or something to be responsible for.

And we have a meeting which we use to plan the programme, and each parent is expected to attend this.

100

Now, just before we move on to answer any questions you have, I'd just quickly like to mention some of the ways you and your child are able to get the most out of the centre.

101

It's important that you attend regularly.

102

This way you'll get to know other parents well and your child will develop confidence while he or she is here.

103

Younger children might need to leave early.

104

It's better to leave early than to go home with an overtired child.

105

We do provide drinks for the children, but we ask you to make sure your child has a snack to eat during the morning.

106

No crisps or chocolate, please.

107

Section 3 I've had a look at your draft presentation plan and compared it with mine, Kath, and we seem to have the same basic structure.

108

We've both included the same three main sections – that's the anatomy of the foot, the injuries and the treatment – and we've organised our presentations in the same way.

109

But the types of sports we've chosen to illustrate the possible injuries aren't the same.

110

I'll deal with the anatomy bit.

111

I've got notes and a handout on that from Professor Gilligan's lecture.

112

Oh, I was hoping to do that.

113

I've downloaded some useful stuff.

114

I do think we should limit this section though.

115

We don't want to spend much time on anatomy when the main focus is on the treatment.

116

That's true, but in the last section maybe the two of us could show how some of these therapies actually work.

117

I could be the patient and you could do the treatment.

118

Hmm, good idea.

119

Because it's hard to find pictures, as injuries are mostly internal.

120

It would be good to hear some first-hand accounts from injured athletes too.

121

Yeah, but we don't have time.

122

No.

123

Should we then discuss different types of heel injury?

124

It's worth pointing out that these vary enormously in how bad they are.

125

It might be just a pulled muscle or a bone injury which needs surgery.

126

Sometimes only an expert can tell the difference.

127

Excellent.

128

I'll do the slides on that.

129

Leave that one to me.

130

Now, what about causes of heel injuries?

131

Well, it's easy enough to list them.

132

Overuse, improper footwear...

133

Yes.

134

Um, incorrect running style?

135

They're all relevant, but for simplicity, let's just pick one cause.

136

Say, stuff about changing your training habits suddenly.

137

You mean like suddenly doing a lot of mountain training?

138

Yes, that's a good idea.

139

and there was research on that in the latest edition of Physio Journal wasn't there?

140

Professor Gilligan recommended it to us.

141

Great!

142

You can leave the bit on stretching techniques to me.

143

I really like all that stuff.

144

So what's going to be your approach there?

145

Well, I'll summarise all the various techniques with visual support and then I'll make the point that the stretching should be carefully managed.

146

Obviously you have to be careful not to overstretch and to stretch only when your muscles are warmed up.

147

Otherwise, you could do yourself more harm than good.

148

It's also important that on a supervised programme, stretching is later on combined with balance exercises, which stretch and also strengthen the muscles.

149

OK, then.

150

It's always useful to have some information on case studies at the end, in case we're short of material.

151

Did you manage to find anything?

152

Yes.

153

a female runner in her 30s talking about her treatment for a swollen heel.

154

Initially, she rested the injury.

155

This did help to reduce the swelling, although it was still a little bit uncomfortable.

156

Then she applied an ice pack to the injury twice a day.

157

Did that work?

158

Well, she persisted with this treatment for the first month, but decided it wasn't helping.

159

After this period, she was shown how to use deep tissue massage techniques and was surprised at how much freedom of movement this created in her foot.

160

Wasn't she having ultrasound treatment?

161

Yes, she was having sessions at the hospital, but she remained unconvinced about its value.

162

She felt the same about the balancing exercises she was prescribed.

163

OK, that's interesting.

164

I looked at the aftercare programme of a male sprinter who was allowed to do some sports activity as part of his rehabilitation.

165

After four months of treatment, he did some light running on grass, wearing shoes that gave plenty of support to his injured heel.

166

So it didn't hurt?

167

Well, he found the heel was sore afterwards, and the same happened with some jumping exercises he was asked to try.

168

Did he go to the gym and use weights?

169

Yes, after a few weeks, and if he used light weights, he could train without pain.

170

He also tried cycling and found this beneficial as his foot was not making contact with the ground.

171

He expected a similar result with swimming but found the repetitive kicking motion was actually aggravating the injury.

172

Section 4 We've been looking at marketing techniques which influence buying decisions.

173

Some of these techniques are related to the way the products are presented in the store.

174

For supermarkets, the store layout is not as random as it seems.

175

Decisions have to be made about the arrangement of the aisles where the customers walk, and the shelves and so on where the products are displayed.

176

The most common layout pattern is the grid layout, where parallel aisles are arranged in a rectangular pattern.

177

Supermarkets like this layout as it allows them to utilise floor space efficiently by providing the greatest amount of display space proportionate to aisle space.

178

Also, this layout helps to manage traffic flow as it encourages people to all walk in one direction.

179

The main weaknesses of the grid layout are the monotony of rows of aisles and the fact that it is easier for customers to rush through the supermarket without lingering.

180

Another layout pattern used by supermarkets is known as the freeform.

181

Here, displays and aisles are arranged in a random pattern.

182

The good thing about this layout is that customers tend to spend more time in the store as they wander about looking for different products.

183

Its main weakness is the inefficient use of space, which means it is less cost effective.

184

Then we have the boutique layout, where everything is organised around a food specialty, such as the bakery.

185

The advantage of this layout is that it divides parts of the store into smaller areas, which may be distinguished by changes in flooring or displays.

186

A further advantage is that this style of layout is attractive to shoppers.

187

This however is not used economically and it is therefore expensive.

188

The choice of location of particular types of items in the store is also important.

189

A supermarket's design aims to direct customers to the store's side and rear walls.

190

Items typically displayed along the rear length of the store include meat and dairy products since these appear on the grocery list of the majority of shoppers.

191

This means shoppers must pass by a large number of other items to get to them.

192

Items which consumers tend to spend more time considering before buying, such as cosmetics, are usually placed away from the busy areas so that people can look at them in comfort without feeling rushed.

193

Products placed at the end of aisles are clearly visible and therefore these locations provide a greater opportunity for shoppers to view the products.

194

Consumers tend to assume that items on display at the end of an aisle are on sale, but this is often not the case.

195

In fact, supermarket managers often place products which are not selling quickly enough in these positions.

196

The placement of products on shelves is very carefully planned.

197

Supermarket executives use computer-generated plans to help them place products on shelves in a way that ensures consumers spend more.

198

The eye level of the average woman is 1m 60cm off the floor, which is the height of the middle shelves, so the things which cost more are placed here, while cheaper products are placed on higher or lower shelves.

199

items targeted at children break this rule.

200

They are placed on the lowest shelves.

201

Supermarkets also use a range of other marketing techniques to encourage consumers to spend more.

202

It's no accident that in nearly every supermarket, the fruit and vegetable department is the first shoppers come to as they enter the store.

203

These, together with flowers, produce a greater profit than any other department.

204

After complaints from parents, many supermarkets no longer place popular products aimed at children on the shelves next to the checkout.

205

Instead, you are most likely to find products aimed at impulse buyers, such as chocolate, magazines and other treats here.

206

Many supermarkets have also expanded into non-food areas such as clothing, entertainment and stationary.
