Tommy:   Olga, you’re coming to the class party at school, aren’t you?

Olga:   Yes, Tommy. I’m glad it’s at the end of June because I’m having my birthday party on the first of July.

Tommy:   And the twenty-eighth’s better than the twenty-fifth because it’s a Friday!

Olga:   What are you going to wear?

Tommy:   Either my black jeans or blue shorts.

Olga:   Wear your new black T-shirt with blue shorts.

Tommy:   OK.

Olga:   I’m a bit worried about the party.

Tommy:   Why? You’re not singing in front of everyone like in the school concert or playing the guitar like last year.

Olga:   But I’ve got to help make sure everything’s clean and tidy after the party, and that might take a long time.

Tommy:   I don’t think so. Actually, I’ll probably arrive late.

Olga:   Why?

Tommy:   I want to be in the tennis match at my sports club. I won’t have time to get the bus, but my mum will drive me to the party.

Olga:   Oh, OK. Is your mum cooking some food for the party?

Tommy:   Yes, and we’ll bring some paper plates. And you’ve got some balloons, haven’t you?

Olga:   That’s right.

16   You will hear a girl talking about a video. Which part of the video didn’t she understand?

Millie:   I liked that film about animals that live in the Amazon Forest. It started by showing the different places different animals like to live in, and all that bit was clear. The next bit was difficult though. I needed my mum to explain it to me! Then the last past was good and I didn’t have any problems understanding it.

17   You will hear two friends talking about a concert. What’s the boy’s opinion of the concert?

Jess:   I didn’t like the school concert yesterday, mainly because the musicians hadn’t practised enough. They were really bad, I think.

Tom:   Really? I think they played well, but I’ve never heard music like that before or seen some of those instruments before.

Jess:   It must be interesting to play new stuff, I guess.

Tom:   Exactly! Doing the same thing’s awful.

Boy:   Shall I phone Mum now to say we’ll be at the café in the main square in 30 minutes?

Dad:   Yes, please. And could you ask her to get today’s newspaper for me?

Boy:   Sure.

19   You will hear a teacher talking to his class. What information is he giving his student?

Man:   Listen, everyone. Because you still need some photos to add to your geography project, we’re allowed to go to the park today! I know you love working there, but you must still make sure you do your school work carefully. We’re coming back to the classroom at ten, so that we have time to put everything away.

20   You will hear a boy talking about his sister, Emma. Who has Emma married?

Boy:   My sister Emma got married last week to a guy she met in Paris. And now she lives in an apartment above that restaurant called Marco’s in Green Street. She finished studying art and design last year and has just got a job drawing pictures for a book! Her husband travels a lot in his job, showing tourists round different cities.
