Woman: How does he spell his surname?

Man: J-A-Y-E. Got that?

Woman: Oh yes, here we are … live at a hundred and eighty-three School Road, Barnfield…

Man: Yes, that’s the one.

Woman: And you say he was working in Finance?

Man: Uhm, Customer Service, actually.

Woman: Aah – they had lots of students working for them last summer.

Man: Well, the tax people want to know his exact job title – I’m not sure why.

Woman: Mm, let me see … He was an office assistant.

Man: Right, got that. They also want to know about his monthly earnings.

Woman: Let’s have a look … five hundred and thirty-eight pounds seventy a month … Oh, sorry, he was a scale one, so that’s four hundred and fifty-seven pounds sixty. Anything else?

Man: That’s fine. Thanks. I’ll send them the information today…

Conversation Two. Questions 5 to 8.

Look at the note below.

You will hear a man describing a problem with an order.

You have 15 seconds to read through the note.

[pause]

Now listen, and fill in the spaces.

Woman: Hello, Blackwell Printers. Julie Davidson speaking. How may I help you?

Man: Hello, This is Mark Jones from Europe Holidays. I was hoping to speak to Steven Kirby about the stationery you’re printing for us.

Woman: I’m afraid Steven’s away until Friday.

Man: Oh-you see I’m not very happy with the business cards and I wanted to see if I could make a couple of changes to the paper too.

Woman: Would you like me to pass on a message?

Man: Yes, please. The thing is, I’ve just received your proofs – the cards themselves are fine, but you seem to have misunderstood the quantities. I’m sure I asked for five hundred for each of the marketing executives and seven hundred and fifty for me but you’ve put everyone down for seven hundred and fifty.

Woman: Right, I’ve made me a note of that. Is there anything else?

Man: Yes, well this is my mistake really. Could you ask Steven to move the company logo further to the left? It’s too close to the address at the moment. I think that’s all for now. Thanks.
