Test 1
Part 1
You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have to answer questions on what
you hear. There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a
chance to check your work. All the recordings will be played once only. The test is in four parts.
At the end of the test, you will be given 10 minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.
Now turn to Part 1.
PART 1
You will hear a student from overseas phoning a student accommodation office of a college in
the UK for some information.
First you have some time to look at questions 1-4.
Now listen and answer questions 1-4.
Darren: "College Accommodation Bureau, Darren speaking, how may I help you?"
Woman: "Oh, good morning. l am starting at the college in September and I need to find some
accommodation."
Darren: "Right, well, there are various options. The first one is to stay in college accommodation.
That’ll be a single room."
Woman: "How much would that cost?"
Darren: "Well, it depends. For a standard room, you're looking at 3276 pounds for the year. That's
just for a room with wash basin. Or 3834 pounds if you want an En-suite(Q1). That's with
your own small bathroom."
Woman: "I see. That's more than I expected."
Darren: "It does include heating. That's quite a saving because energy costs can be high, especially
in winter."
Woman: "Hum, does it include meals as well?"
Darren: "No. AII our rooms are self-catering now. There is a shared kitchen on each corridor where
you can cook if you want to. Or there are plenty of places to eat out on campus."
Woman: "OK. And you said that is the price for the whole year?"
Darren: "Well, you pay annually. But actually, it's for 36 weeks. lt doesn't include holidays(Q2). You
have to vacate the room then."
Woman: "Oh, um… l’d need somewhere to stay in the holidays. I can't afford to go home. The flights
are too expensive."
Darren: "Well, there is another option - Several families who are the workers at the college or have
children studying here offer visiting students a room in their homes."
Woman: "Oh?"
Darren: "We call this arrangement "Home Welcome(Q3)". And we've still got a few places left at
the moment. You pay 150 pounds per week and that includes breakfast, a packed lunch
and dinner, as well as heating."Woman: "ls there a contract? Do you have to stay for the whole year?"
Darren: "No, it’s flexible(Q4)."
Woman: "It sounds really good, but I'm not sure. I really want to be a little more in

Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 5-10.
Now listen and answer questions 5-10.
Woman: "What about finding somewhere to live off campus?"
Darren: "Yes, you can rent a property in town privately. You might want to rent a room in a shared
house. You'd have a room of your own and share the kitchen and bathroom with other
students."
Woman: "What about if I don't want to share?"
Darren: "You can get what we call a studio(Q5). They are often quite small but they'll have everything
you need."
Woman: "Right. How much would those two options cost?"
Darren: "Well, prices vary, depending on which part of town the property is in. Generally speaking,
the cheapest is around 275 pounds a month for each student."
Woman: "Oh, that's not too bad."
Darren: "Yes, but it can also be as high as 490 pounds and then you’ll have to pay all your other bills."
Woman: "What sort of amount would I be looking at for those?"
Darren: "Well, last year, students were paying on average about 43 pounds per month each for gas
and electricity. This year, it would probably be somewhere in the region of 48(Q6) pounds."
Woman: "That's a lot."
Darren: "Yes, they'd gone up quite a bit. And on top of that you have to pay for water(Q7) and
that’ll probably be around 9 pounds."
Woman: "That didn't occur to me. And I guess I'd have to pay for transportation(Q8), too."
Darren: "That’s right. Most of these properties are quite a long way from the college."
Woman: "Oh, that just gets worse and worse. What's the minimum contract on this type of
accommodation?"
Darren: "Six months. And you have to pay a deposit(Q9). But of course, you can stay there over
the holidays."
Woman: "That's true."
Darren: "And you'd have to provide references(Q10). They want two from someone in this country."
Woman: "I see. That's not a problem."
Darren: "If you do choose this option, we can't find the property for you. You'd have to go through
the estate agent which manages the property for the owner."
Woman: "Right. Thanks. Well, l think I'd like to see what's available privately. Could you give me the
estate agent details..."That is the end of part 1. You now have half a minute to check your answers. Now turn to part 2.
