Man : Hello and welcome to the Healthy Ways exhibition here in San Antonio.
My name is Hiroki and I work at Cambria Technologies. Today I’d like to show you
a new personal fitness tracking device my company just released. What makes our
device unique is not its many features, it actually has all the same features as the
other fitness trackers. What sets ours apart is its price. It’s the least expensive device
available. And by participating in today’s session, you’ll get one to keep at no cost to
you. All you’ll have to do is fill out a survey about your exercise habits.
243
Questions 83 through 85 refer to the following broadcast.
Woman : Good morning SKL Radio listeners.
And welcome to the Madison Business Show. Today I'll be speaking to
professional career counselor Tara Goldberg. Over this next hour Ms.Goldberg
will outline strategies for finding a profession that matches your skills, interests
and personality. During the last part of the program she'd like to hear from
listeners, so we encourage you to call in when we open up our lines and let us
know what you think. Well, let me start off by saying welcome Ms.Goldberg!
From what I understand, you’re publishing a book about this topic which will be
out in print next month.

Questions 95 through 97 refer to the following telephone message and coupon.

are coming. But unfortunately, it looks like we can’t use the coupon from Dinner
Delights after all. We might want to make a reservation some place else. Also,
Mark agreed to play Nadia's favorite song on his guitar during the party. Do you
think you could make photocopies of the lyrics so that everyone can sing along?
Questions 98 through 100 refer to the following instruction and flow chart.
Man: First some great news to start the meeting. Thanks to the team’s excellent
product designs our line of Ruby Star appliances outsold all competing
appliances on the market last quarter. Well done! Now I want to discuss
a revised product development process. As you can see from this flow chart,
we've added a step between creative design and building a model. This new
step means you'll need approval from the executive board before creating your
prototype. Lately there's been some concern about the amount of time being
spent on prototypes that never actually become products. This new process will
help out team become more productive and use time more efficiently.
