TEST 6

8   9:10           9   camera     10   Modana

Woman:   Please listen because I want to tell you about the next class trip. We’re going to a castle. You read about this one in Tedbury last week in your history lesson. Tell your parents they need to pay for the trip this week. It’s five pounds sixty. That’s three pounds for the ticket and the rest is for transport.

This trip’s on a Saturday. We don’t want you to miss a school day, like a Friday.

We’re going by bus. Please get to school by eight fifty at the latest because the bus will go at ten past nine exactly.

You don’t need to bring paper or a pen, but you’ll need a camera. If you haven’t got one, you can share with a friend.

While we’re there, we’re going to see a special exhibition. The one about cars has just finished and now there’s one about clothes that’s called Modana. That’s M-O-D-A-N-A. It’s very interesting to see what people wore hundreds of years ago.

Now, any questions … (fade)

Woman:   Welcome to the library. You will all come here a lot, so there’s some important information that you need to know.

First of all, the hours the library is open. During term time, the library is open 24 hours a day. But outside term time, it’s open from half past eight in the morning until seven o’clock in the evening.

Of course, you will want to take things out of the library. You can borrow different things, like magazines, CDs, books. You can take up to ten different things out of the library, but only six books at one time. But please be careful! If you return things late, you will have to pay a fine! The cost is two pounds a day for each book and one pound a day for other things. Library cards are free, but you need to fill in a form and give it in with a photo. If you lose your card, you can get a new one, but it will cost five pounds.

 

 

 

 

TEST 8

6 China   7 4/four   8 6/six   9 games   10 July

Jessica:   My name’s Jessica Chapman and I’d like to tell you about a job I did a few months ago. I worked as an online language teacher. I helped schoolchildren in China to learn English. I talked to them online using special software for two hours every Monday and Wednesday. My students were all young, eight to ten years old and about the same level. The groups I taught were small: three to six students in each lesson.

I had an interactive whiteboard on my screen that I could write and draw on. The students could see it on their screens, too. We played games, sang songs and had conversations.

I saw an advert for the job in January, and I applied immediately. A month later I got a reply, and I started working in July. I want to be a teacher in the future and this job gave me lots of experience. I really loved it, and I was sad when the job came to an end in September.

 

 

TEST 9

6 13   7 1,045   8 4/four   9 15/fifteen   10 quiet

Woman:   Now I’m going to give you some information about university flats. The first type is the cheapest. There are ten students in each flat. A room costs £95 per week. Each term is a different number of weeks. The first term is longer than the others. It’s 13 weeks, so it’s more expensive: one thousand two hundred and thirty-five pounds.

The second term costs nine hundred and fifty pounds, and the final term costs one thousand and forty-five pounds. The second type of flat is £110 a week and you share with three other students. In the first term, flats are available from the fifteenth of September until the twentieth of December. You can’t stay in the flats during the university holidays, but you can move back in on the fourth of January for the second term.

We have quiet time at night in student flats from Monday to Thursday between ten o’clock at night and half past six in the morning so students can study and sleep.
