Questions 41 through 43 refer to the following conversation.
[F-Am] Hello. I’d like to send this package to Singapore. How much
will it cost?
[M-Am] Put it on the scale, please. … That’ll be fifty-eight dollars and 
fifty cents. Priority Mail. Is that OK?
[F-Am] It’ll have to be. Is that the quickest?
[M-Am] Yes. It’ll be there in six days.
[F-Am] OK. Well, I don’t have enough cash, so I’ll pay by card, thanks.
[M-Am] That’s fine. I’ll just check that all the details are correct first 
before I take payment.
Questions 44 through 46 refer to the following conversation.
[F-Cn] Look, it’s after two already and we’re still not on the freeway. 
We should have taken the train. Can I borrow your cell phone, 
Joe? I left mine at home this morning, and I really should 
phone the office to say we’ll be late.
[M-Am] No problem. It’s in the glove compartment. Yeah. Just slide 
that button and… yeah…that’s the keypad. I’d better keep my 
eyes on the road.
[F-Cn] Good idea. Oh no! It says there’s no reception. It must be the 
mountains.
[M-Am] Don’t worry. Just another five minutes or so and we’ll be 
through them. It should be OK then.
Questions 47 through 49 refer to the following conversation.
[F-Am] Hello. This is Pauline Connelly from KL Plastics? 
[M-Am] Oh yes, Ms. Connelly. Good to hear from you. 
[F-Am] I came over earlier today to look at the offices on Commerce
Drive. Number 54.
[M-Am] I remember, 54 Commerce Drive. We’ve had a lot of interest 
already in that property. Have you had enough time to make a 
decision?
[F-Am] Yes, and I’m afraid we won’t be going ahead. The location is 
perfect, and there’s enough office space for us there, but the 
price is rather high. 
[M-Am] Oh, that’s too bad. 
[F-Am] I mentioned it was a concern at the time and after going
through the figures, it just doesn’t work for us financially, I’m
afraid.
[M-Am] I could contact the owner if that would help, and maybe ask 
if there’s any room for negotiation. Let me see… it’s two 
hundred thousand, right? How does one hundred eighty work 
for you?
