000] - Speaker 1
Get in touch with the help desk at the phone company, and I ended up shouting at the phone a couple of
times.

[00:00:07.060] - Speaker 3
Because the line was.

[00:00:08.500] - Speaker 1
Always.

[00:00:08.960] - Speaker 3
Engaged.

[00:00:10.570] - Speaker 1
In the end, I called the number at three in the morning.

[00:00:14.490] - Speaker 3
Talked to a.

[00:00:15.160] - Speaker 1
Really helpful person and he found a solution straight away.

[00:00:20.450] - Speaker 3
You.

[00:00:20.800] - Speaker 1
Wouldn't believe how glad I was to be able to keep in touch properly with everybody again. Question 6.
You hear a girl talking about her sister. How does she feel towards her?

[00:00:38.380] - Speaker 2
I've been losing patience with my sister lately. She's always found school work tough and I used to feel a
lot of sympathy for her because she was always studying till late and doing her best. Recently, though,
she's been going out at all hours and then complains about how frustrating it is that she doesn't have time
to study and to think my parents actually believe her. It's amazing.

[00:01:09.050] - Speaker 1
Now, listen again.

Question 7. You hear a boy talking about an exam. What is he the most anxious about?

[00:01:53.920] - Speaker 2
Hey, Yusuf. What are you looking so worried about?

[00:01:58.840] - Speaker 3
My Spanish exam. It's tomorrow.

[00:02:02.870] - Speaker 2
But you always do really well in language tests.

[00:02:07.720] - Speaker 3
True, but this one is in two parts, written and spoken. I'm pretty confident about the first because I
normally get a good mark for my essays. It's just that when I have an examiner in front of me asking
questions, I just panic and make a mess of everything. It happens a lot in exams and it really gets me
down. I failed.

[00:02:35.980] - Speaker 1
One recently.

[00:02:36.720] - Speaker 3
Because of that. I'll definitely pass this one, but I need to get a good mark to do Spanish in College, which
is what I really want to do. If I get a low mark, they won't accept me.

[00:02:52.020] - Speaker 2
Well, I'm sure you'll be fine. Good luck anyway.
[00:02:56.920] - Speaker 3

Question eight. You hear a man talking about his new flatmate. What's the most annoying thing about
him?

[00:04:23.330] - Speaker 3
You.

[00:04:23.800] - Speaker 1
Haven't told me much about your new flatmate Juan.

[00:04:27.640] - Speaker 3
What's he like? Well, he's okay. It took me a while to get used to him after having Dan here for so long. Of
course, Dan was difficult because he was so sensitive. Any little criticism I made, and he wouldn't talk to
me for days. The main thing that bothers me about Juan is that he works from home and gets really angry
with people he works with. He ends up arguing with them loudly on the phone, and I can't concentrate on
my own work. I really have to talk to him about it. He does seem a little bit stubborn, too. For example, I
tried to arrange a cleaning program for the flat, but he kept saying we didn't need one. I hope we can sort
that out, though, eventually.

[00:05:23.360] - Speaker 1
Now, listen again.
