LISTENING – PART 1 Understanding distraction C A B Woman: Well, I would’ve given you a ring, but there was something wrong with the battery in my mobile. It was really annoying because I was expecting a call from Emily and I’ve lost her number so I can’t call her back. Man: It doesn’t matter. It was probably getting quite late by then anyway. Woman: Well, actually, I was going to call you when I got home last night. I didn’t think you’d mind how late it was, really. But I couldn’t find the spare battery I’d left somewhere in my room so I couldn’t do that either.

LISTENING – PART 1 1 C A B Well, most of the time I really enjoy my job. I like travelling to different places and meeting customers, and I don't mind the irregular hours. I'd hate to be stuck indoors all the time, working 9 to 5 every day, like the management staff at head office. It's so much better to be out and about, and even if I had a day or two when people don’t buy much off me, I'd still feel it's been worthwhile. If I didn’t do this job, I think I’d like to be a reporter for a magazine, interviewing celebrities and that kind of thing.

LISTENING – PART 1 2 C A B Personally, I felt they couldn't have found a better location for it. If you're going to look at desert wildlife, then surely central Australia is ideal. And although I know there have been some critical remarks about the camera work, overall it didn't look that bad to me. The only thing I would say is that perhaps we didn’t learn as much as we might have liked about the creatures we were seeing. I don't think it's enough just to show us a strange-looking Australian insect and expect everyone to know what it is and what it does.

LISTENING – PART 1 3 B Woman: Things aren't going so well, are they? Woman Man: No, I suppose not. What do you think the problem Man is? Woman: Woman It seems to me that whenever something goes wrong, you don't really learn the right lessons. Instead you just carry on making the same mistakes again and again. And that's not fair on the other staff here, many of whom are paid a lot less than you. Man: But I've only been here for a while. I'm sure that Man in a few months I'll have a better idea of what to do. Woman: We haven't got months. I'm afraid that unless Woman there's evidence of real improvement very soon, we’ll have to let you go.

LISTENING – PART 1 4 B A C Man: The air’s getting worse and worse, isn't it? Some Man mornings you can hardly breathe. And those factories on the edge of town are to blame. Woman: I'm not sure about that. I mean, it’s bad today, Woman but the wind’s blowing the opposite way. I think it's more likely to be the traffic. The air would be a lot better if they could limit the number of cars and trucks allowed downtown. Man: Man That would certainly help. They should encourage people to move out to the suburbs, too. There are too many living right in the centre, with all their vehicles. Woman: Um, that's not really the way I see it. The real Woman problem is people driving into work every day.
