Section 1.

You will hear a telephone conversation between a musician and a man working in a music agency.

Hello, Music Alive.

How can I help you?

Hi, I've just moved to the area and I saw your advert.

I wanted to find out about your services.

Sure, what would you like to know?

Well, I've got a number of questions if that's okay.

Have you got a few minutes? Of course.

Can I make a note of your name?

Yes, I'm Jim.

Jim Granley.

Thanks.

And do you represent every type of musician?

Can you tell me a bit about that?

Well, we're basically a networking agency for musicians,

but we don't actually find you work.

We have all our members on our database,

the type of music they play,

and also we can put people in touch if they want to form a band, for example.

Is there a lot of live music here?

Yes, and venues contact us when they need musicians,

etc. We deal with modern music,

especially rock, which is what most people seem to enjoy around here.

But we do also represent some jazz musicians.

We don't accept classical music, I'm afraid.

No, that's fine.

What do you play?

Guitar and violin, and a bit of flute.

As I'm new here, I thought you could help me get in touch with people.

I see.

Sure.

We actually have a newsletter I could send you

that would give you a good idea of what we do and how you can benefit from joining.

The latest one came out this week.

Would you like me to send you a copy?

That would be great.

Is it weekly?

No, every month.

Weekly would be too much work, I think.

Right.

And what are the costs for joining and becoming a member?

Is it expensive?

I'm on a tight budget.

You and every other musician in the region.

No, we do everything to keep costs down because we know what it's like.

We're pretty much all musicians ourselves too.

So to join is just £35 and that's a one-off payment.

Oh actually that's the discounted rate for young musicians under 18s.

The standard rate is £45.

Unfortunately I'm over 18.

And how about joining?

Can I join when I want?

Now, for example?

Or do you have a limit on numbers?

No, you can join anytime.

We don't have a limit on the numbers of members we can have.

The more the merrier, in fact.

Our membership's gone up recently from 700 to 750.

That's good.

And your ad says you also have facilities there that musicians can use.

Can you explain a bit about that?

Sure.

Well, it's not huge, but we do have a couple of rooms where you can rehearse.

They're soundproof.

And we've just opened a studio, a small one.

And it's already proving popular with bands that want to send demo tapes to venues and record labels.

Wow, that sounds brilliant!

And is that free?

Guess not.

No, that's extra.

But we do have some free services.

For example, we can offer legal advice if you need it,

for contracts and things like that.

Pretty useful stuff, you know.

Great!

So if I'm interested, what's the next step?

How do I become a member?

Well, simple really.

Just send us a letter with your contact details,

and a recording made within the last couple of months.

That'll give other members an idea of what you play.

And where are you based?

We're at 707 Kipax Street, Marbury.

How do you spell Kipax?

It's K-I-P-P-A-X.

And is there an email address?

Yes, it's music.talent at bsu.co.uk.

Talent as in the word?

Yes.

Right.

Section 2 You'll hear the organiser of a fishing competition giving a talk to people participating in the event.

Hello everyone and welcome to the Albany Fishing Competition.

I'm going to give you some information you'll need for the next two days.

Right, let's talk about registration.

You'll need to head to the registration desk before the event starts.

If you're here to compete rather than just watch,

you'll have already paid your entrance fee online and you will have been given a competitor number.

But to fully complete your registration in the competition,

100

we'll need to see some form of identification today.

101

So make sure you show that at the desk,

102

otherwise you won't be properly entered.

103

Right, so what do you get for your entrance fee?

104

This is a fully catered competition.

105

So whenever you're hungry, either today or tomorrow,

106

just go down to the dining tent.

107

As for things necessary for fishing,

108

you know, your hooks, rods,

109

all your gear, I'm sure you've brought all that with you.

110

And if you fancy fishing from a boat,

111

you'll need to cover the cost of petrol.

112

Okay, now, if you want to fish in this country,

113

you must have a fishing license and have it with you.

114

If you don't have one,

115

don't worry, You can always go online and they'll issue you one immediately.

116

We wanted to be able to sell them here at the competition,

117

but the council wouldn't allow it, sadly.

118

I think it's also possible to call the Department of Fisheries,

119

but they send them by post,

120

so obviously you won't get that in time now.

121

OK, so the competition starts today and ends on Sunday evening.

122

At 5.30pm you will all have to stop fishing

123

and at 6pm exactly the judges will start weighing the fish

124

to see how heavy they are in order to choose the winners.

125

So you'll need to be in the judging area before then.

126

The prize giving will happen later in the evening.

127

Right, have a look at your maps and I'll point out the important places.

128

First, the registration area.

129

To get to it, go to the roundabout in the middle of your map.

130

From there, take the road that heads to the east.

131

You'll find the registration desk on that road.

132

It's a nice shady area surrounded by trees.

133

OK, if you're planning to fish from the shore tomorrow,

134

then there's a specially designated area for you.

135

The shore fishing area is in one particular spot,

136

you can't just go anywhere on the coastline.

137

You'll find the area directly to the north of the skate park.

138

If you're planning to fish from a boat,

139

you'll need to go to the boat launching area.

140

To reach it, you should go to the roundabout and take the road that's on the right.

141

Follow that road to the beach and that's where you launch your boat.

142

When the competition is over,

143

you need to take your catch to the judging area so we can determine who the winner is.

144

To get there, head out from the car park and take the first road on your left.

145

Go past the first aid tent and the judging area will be set up down there.

146

Meals will be served in the dining area.

147

To get there, you'll need to go to the roundabout and take the road that leads west.

148

Follow that road and just where there's a sharp bend,

149

you'll find where you can eat.

150

If you keep going, you'll come to a lighthouse.

151

If you're lucky enough to win,

152

or you just want to see the winners get their prizes,

153

you'll need to head to the prize-giving area.

154

It's north of the roundabout, past the playground.

155

The prize-giving area's at the end of that road, right on the beach.

156

OK.

157

Question 3.

158

You will hear two first-year art students called Max and Abby talking about their end-of-year art exhibition. So, Abby,

159

we have to prepare our individual displays for the end-of-year exhibition

160

to showcase all the work we've done for the first year of our art degree.

161

Yeah, Max, I've been thinking about how to put it all together.

162

I'm excited about letting my friends and family see all the stuff I've produced.

163

Me too.

164

Actually, I'm really keen to see the work of the other students on our course.

165

I mean, it'll be great to see all the finished displays.

166

But we've seen what they've been doing throughout the year already, really.

167

Anyway, what about getting feedback on our exhibition from our tutor?

168

I wonder what that'll be like.

169

Mmm, I'm a bit nervous about that part.

170

Mmm, I hope our stuff ends up looking as good as some of the displays in last year's exhibition.

171

Yeah.

172

Do you remember that display of printed textiles?

173

Fantastic mixtures of silk and wool,

174

all coloured with natural dyes.

175

Yeah, I can't actually remember that.

176

What sticks in my mind are those ten wooden reproductions one student made,

177

all of different types of transport,

178

little cars and trains and stuff.

179

Yes, it was really delicate work and much harder to do than if he'd tried to construct them out of metal.

180

So, our tutor asked us to come up with a name for our display which reflects the work we've done.

181

What have you gone for?

182

Well, most of what I've done has focused on the countryside,

183

so I've been thinking of things connected to that.

184

A lot of my larger pieces are views of farmland.

185

That's not a particularly memorable name, though.

186

I've gone for Mother Nature in the end,

187

though I did think about the name Seasons,

188

as the fields are shown at different times over the farming year.

189

Oh, OK.

190

Do you think it's going to be challenging putting our displays together?

191

Well, I've pretty much come to a conclusion about which pieces I'll include now.

192

I'll have to miss out some of my preparatory drawings for

193

the bigger pieces to make sure my best work fits into the space we've been allocated.

194

I'm more concerned about how long it will take me to put everything in place.

195

We've got a day and a half.

196

That'll be plenty.

197

Hmm, we'll see.

198

What about writing the summary of our work?

199

It's for people who visit the exhibition to read and I'm absolutely certain they will.

200

It explains the reasons behind our work and they'll want to know what it all means.

201

We've got a strict word limit to stick to,

202

but I've got so much to say it won't be easy to say it in so few words.

203

Hmm, so what about other organizational stuff?

204

We'll need good lighting for one thing.

205

The technical guys are doing that, aren't they?

206

Yeah.

207

One thing to do is copy a load of comment forms so people can write what they think of the exhibition.

208

Hopefully they'll be kind.

209

I'm sure they will.

210

I don't know about the journalists who've been invited though.

211

They might not be quite as nice to us.

212

Well, fingers crossed.

213

You never I don't know.

214

So, our tutor suggested visiting a few exhibitions to look at the way work is presented

215

and to give us a few ideas about improving and displaying our own work.

216

Yeah, I liked the On the Water exhibition.

217

The way the artist used the brush strokes in the oil painting to create a sense of movement was amazing.

218

Mmm, it takes a long time to develop skill like that.

219

Maybe we'll get there one day.

220

What I liked about the City Life exhibition was the fact that,

221

although the paintings themselves were of busy places,

222

the display itself wasn't crowded at all.

223

Perhaps the fact that the paintings were actually quite small was what created a more open feeling to the exhibition.

224

Yeah, though the way they were arranged wasn't especially unusual.

225

And then there was the Faces exhibition.

226

Yeah, I mean, painting people's portraits isn't a new thing.

227

But what I did like was the way the artist managed to reproduce the exact tones of the skin

228

and hair of the people in the pictures.

229

And the last exhibition we went to see was moods.

230

Hmm, I expected that to show emotions.

231

People laughing, crying, whatever.

232

But it was about plants.

233

You don't tend to think of trees and flowers having feelings.

234

And I'm not sure they do.

235

But it certainly seemed that way in the pictures.

236

Not the most obvious choice of subject, that's for sure.

237

Anyway, I guess we'd better get on with it.

238

Section 4.

239

You will hear part of a student presentation about a conservation project on the Florida coast of the United States.

240

Today I'm going to be talking about the first year of a regeneration project in a mangrove forest.

241

Mangrove forests are found along river estuaries and coastlines and are important

242

because they prevent flooding by acting as a barrier between the land and sea sea.

243

The mangrove trees have special roots which can breathe and allow them to survive in thick, airless mud.

244

They are also a very important habitat for wading birds,

245

fish and other animals.

246

In the area where the project is taking place,

247

there have been a number of problems since the area was first settled over 100 years ago.

248

Many of the mangrove trees were initially burnt as firewood by local farmers.

249

The mangrove forests were also poisoned by settlers' farming methods

250

because the farmers used fertilizer to increase crop yields and this started to seep into the water,

251

eventually killing part of the mangrove forest.

252

Farming in the area wasn't successful,

253

and what was left of the mangrove forest area wasn't valued by local people as crops couldn't be grown there.

254

And so what happened was that the area started to be used as somewhere to dump trash.

255

Action was urgently needed to protect the mangrove forest and prevent flooding,

256

and so the mangrove regeneration project was set up.

257

The conservationists involved decided to construct a sand barrier around the forests.

258

But unfortunately, this proved to be ineffective.

259

The only way forward appeared to be to grow new mangroves from seed.

260

Several species of mangrove inhabit the forests in this area of the United States,

261

but it is the gray mangroves that we are concerned with here.

262

The seed of this plant is about the size of an almond,

263

and most seeds fall only when they are fully ripe.

264

The Mangrove Regeneration Project first began three years ago.

265

The first set of seedlings was planted in small pots and left to germinate in a hothouse.

266

The plants thrived, and large roots appeared at the bottom of the pots.

267

Ideally, these seedlings should have been conditioned with increasingly salty water before being planted in the sea.

268

They had, in fact, only been watered with rainwater.

269

As the plants weren't used to a saline environment,

270

it was decided to plant them out on the south side of a small island nearby.

271

It was hoped that this would allow them to get used to salt water gradually,

272

since this part of the island was flooded every day at high tide.

273

There were over 100 plants planted in this particular spot,

274

and it was necessary to protect them not from the large number of wading birds which visit the area looking for food,

275

but from the large rabbit colony living in the area.

276

The process for the second set of seedlings was completely different.

277

Young seedlings were collected from the forests and then taken to a new site.

278

The seedlings were then planted in the seabed behind old mangrove roots for protection.

279

However, this method did not prove very successful,

280

and the vast majority of these seedlings were washed away in a storm.

281

Luckily, the first set of seedlings survived,

282

and this method is the one which the project will continue to use in the future.

283

That is the end of the listening test.
