LISTENING: CITY VISIT 1a 2b 3b 4a 5b 6a Audio script Megan: Here’s my house key. Paul: Thanks. M: And I’ll see you later for lunch at about 2pm. P: Where are we meeting again?

Mark Street, and carry on - you can’t miss it. It’s got lots of nice shops and cafés. P: Perfect! M: So, I think you’ve got everything, haven’t you? P: Yes, I think so. Oh, erm, I think

I’ve left my phone and the sheet of paper with the useful addresses on it in your house. M: You’re joking? P: No, sorry. I’ll just go back and get them. It’s this way, isn’t it?

Audio script THREE GREAT HOLIDAY ESTINATIONS! We spoke to a few people who are on holiday. They told us where they are and what they’re doing. 1. I’m on a cruise ship in the

Mediterranean. It’s got lots of great things. There’s a swimming pool, a disco and a theatre. There are shows in the theatre every night. We saw a comedian last night who was really funny. The restaurant is right next to the theatre. That’s where we have breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are lots of bars on the ship too, so you can sit outside and have a drink and enjoy the view. It’s fantastic! 2. I’m in a spa hotel in the country.

It’s really relaxing and I’m here with a few friends. There’s a forest and a lake close by where we go for walks. Inside the hotel, there’s a swimming pool, a gym, a Jacuzzi and a sauna. Our room has a lovely view of the mountains.

There’s a restaurant here too where they serve really healthy food. It’s amazing! 3. I’m in a chalet in the mountains right next to a ski resort.

There’s a kitchen in the chalet where we cook most nights.

However, if we’re tired, we go into the village, which is about a kilometre away. It’s really nice, with lots of shops, restaurants and bars. The best thing is that the ski lifts are just 100 metres away from our chalet STORY TIME 1. In the first joke, the man wasn’t surprised that a horse was serving drinks - he was surprised that the bear had sold the bar. 2. In the second joke, the woman feels nothing for the man anymore, but still “loves” the ring. CRANK CALLS Crank call I: the man wants to know where he can buy drugs. Crank call II: the man says the music is too loud, the staff are rude, they look at him in a strange way and that one person tried to follow him into the shower. BUSINESS DIALOGUES THE SECRETARIAL JOB 1. The new secretary will have to do some filing, send faxes, work on the databases and use the phone. 2. The unusual jobs are: cleaning the office and looking after the pets. CROSSWORD

BUSINESS DIALOGUES THE OFFICE SHARE 1. The new office has lots of light, they can share the electricity bill, and have just one secretary between them. Plus they can help each other if one of them is ill. 2. They both want the desk next to the window, they both want to be on top of the plaque and they both want their names to be bigger.
