　　Test 2

　　Section 1

　　You will hear a number of different recordings and you'll have to answer questions on what you hear.

　　There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions. And you'll have a chance to check your work.

　　All the recordings will be played once only.

　　The test is in four sections.

　　At the end of the test, you will be given ten minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.

　　Now turn to section one. Section one.

　　You will hear two students, Jack and Amy discussing the details of the concerts that they are planning to hold.

　　First, you have some time to look at questions. one to five.

　　You will see there is an example that has been done for you.

　　On this occasion, only the conversation relating to this will be paid first. Amy:Oh, hi, Jack. Thank you for coming to discuss the details of the concert. It's a real help.

　　Jack:No problem, Amy.

　　I'm looking forward to throwing some ideas around. Shall we order coffee before we begin?

　　Amy:Yes, I'll have a cappuccino, please.

　　Right,first on the agenda is deciding who the intended audience is, because we'll obviously have to base our choice of music on this.

　　The thing to do before they start is order coffee. So coffee has been written in the space.

　　Now we shall begin.

　　You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.

　　Listen carefully and answer questions one to five. Amy:Oh, hi, Jack.

　　Thank you for coming to discuss the details of the concert. It's a real help. Jack:No problem, Amy.

　　I'm looking forward to throwing some ideas around. Shall we order coffee before we begin?

　　Amy：Yes, I'll have a cappuccino, please.

　　Right, first on the agenda is deciding who the intended audience is, because we'll obviously have to base our choice of music on this.

　　Classical concerts are held all the time, but I'd really like to do something difference and make it special.

　　What do you think about holding it outside?

　　I like the idea, but the weather is too unpredictable.

　　What if we host the concert for children(Q1) we could make it more lighthearted

　　and everyone could dress up in costume?

　　What a wonderful idea.

　　We could host the event every afternoon so that children can attend after school. How much do you think we should charge?

　　I don't think we should charge more than five dollars for the student tickets.

　　No, I think that four dollars(Q2) would be a fair price.

　　We can charge adults a little bit more. I'd say that six dollars fifty is suitable. Okay, great.

　　That should hopefully cover the costs of running the event.

　　The local press will be in attendance to take photographs to print in the newspaper. So we'll also need to organize a press tent.

　　It's also exciting.

　　There will also be a representative from the local radio(Q3) station broadcasting live.

　　Then predicting is that over a thousand people will tune in to listen.

　　Now that we're agreed, let's move on to discuss our other more sophisticated concert where we'll be hosting a number of well known opera performers.

　　As the majority of people will be at work during the day, I suggest that the concert takes

　　place in the late afternoon or evening, which is do you think?

　　I think we should definitely hold an evening(Q4) concert.

　　The darkness will make the entire performance more dramatic. Yes, that will be fantastic.

　　Let's host the event on Friday when everyone can wind down after finishing a week of work.

　　It'll be a lovely start to the weekend as it will be a lavish and elegant event. I think we should set quite a high entrance fee of around forty dollars.

　　It'll give us some extra money to spend on decorations. That sounds fair.

　　Instead of using chandeliers and electric light, we should decorate the Marquis with

　　candles(Q5) instead.

　　It will be so romantic.

　　Okay, perfect.

　　Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at question six to ten.

　　Now listen and answer question six to ten.

　　Now, moving on to the concert where we showcase talented opera singers from the local area.

　　Perhaps we should host this opera show on Monday evening.

　　I think that the venue is already booked on Monday, but Tuesday(Q6) will do nicely.

　　How much do you think we should charge the audience for tickets since the performers are not professionals, perhaps we should make this a free event?

　　Yes, tickets will be free, but we should ask everyone for a donation(Q7) so that we

　　can cover the costs of the venue and food and drink.

　　The venue also comes complete with the piano(Q8), so hopefully one of the

　　performers will be able to play.

　　I had lessons when I was younger, but I'm not accomplished enough to perform in front of an audience.

　　Well, what if we make our final concert?

　　a karaoke night where every one of any ability can sing on stage?

　　It could be really good fun and it would give every one the opportunity to join in. Yes, I love that idea.

　　Let's hold it during the day on Saturday so that everyone, including families and the elderly, can attend.

　　Perhaps we should offer concessions for students, children and the elderly to make the tickets more affordable and encourage everyone to come?

　　Yes, definitely.

　　I think that the majority of the crowd will be composed of families and friendship groups,

　　so we should avoid giving a group discount(Q9) to maximize the income from ticket

　　sales.

　　Let's arrange a secret surprise to end the show on a high for everyone. How about a band performance?

　　One of my friends happens to know a famous singer(10) who I'm sure would be happy

　　to perform for a small fee.

　　Oh, wow.

　　that sounds brilliant.

　　Well, I think we've addressed the details for all of the concerts. Thank you so much for helping.

　　See you later.

　　That is the end of section one.

　　You now have half a minute to check your answers.
