Questions 7 through 9 refer to the following announcement.
[M-Am] Welcome everyone. As your Chairman, it is with great
pleasure that I can announce Mrs. Gifford has agreed to
become the new President of CAM Industries. As you know,
Mrs. Gifford has been Vice President here for three years
now, since she first came to us, and in a very challenging
market, she has helped to make CAM Industries stronger
and more competitive. At a time when many of our rivals are
struggling to survive, thanks to her efforts, business for us
has never been better. As Chairman, I am delighted that she
has accepted the position. So please, join me in a round of
applause to congratulate Mrs. Gifford in her new role, which
she will start next month.
Questions 10 through 12 refer to the following speech.
[F-Cn] Thank you for coming here today. I am very proud that after
almost one year of renovation, work is finally finished, and
the Space Museum now has a brand new gift shop. It covers
three times the area of the previous shop, and as you can
see, has a huge variety of posters, postcards, books, games,
and other products that I’m sure will prove popular. Shortly,
the renovation of the cafeteria will also be completed, and
we hope and expect sales in both facilities to contribute in no
small part towards the financial success of the museum for
many years to come.

2. [M-Br] Hello, my name is Gary Wilson, and I’d like to welcome
you all to the Seaview Bay Resort. When you check in at
reception, don’t forget to pick up your Welcome Guest
Pack. That tells you all you need to know to help you get
the most out of your stay here. Please make yourselves at
home and enjoy your time with us. I’m in charge here, so if
you have any questions during your stay, please just ask.
3. [F-Am] At Joe’s Grill, we serve the best steak in Chicago.
Everyone who works with me here in the kitchen needs to
understand that. I know you’re new here and there’s a lot
to learn, but you have to do your best to be the best. I’ll be
watching every move you make, and no dish leaves here
unless I see it first, OK?
