听力原文：Reception: Good morning. Can I help you?

Montse: Yes. Could you tell me the best way to get into the center of London, please?

Reception: Well, there is a courtesy bus, which leaves every 20 minutes during the rush hour, or the river taxi service to London Bridge.

Montse: And when is the rush hour?

Reception: It's between seven and nine in the morning and five and seven in the evening.

Moatse: And after nine in the morning?

Reception: After nine the courtesy bus service runs every 40 minutes.

Montse: Ahha. And how long does it take?

Reception: The bus takes about 15 minutes, depending on the traffic.

Montse: And which way does it go?

Reception: Here, I'll show you on the map. From the hotel it goes along the river bank and then on to Brunel Road. It crosses the fiver at Tower Bridge and then stops just after Tower Bridge at Tower Hill Underground Station.

Montse: And what about the fiver taxi, does that change after rush hour?

Reception: Yes, it's a half hourly service during rush hour and after that it runs to a timetable. It takes about 15 minutes. It's a really nice trip. You go across to Canary Wharf Pier first, then you go along the river, under Tower Bridge and you stop at a pier just before London Bridge. The only thing is, it costs ￡1.80 each way.

Mortise: OK. Thanks very much.

Reception: You're welcome. Bye.

d communications. I finished studying in 1992 and then I got my first job. That was with Siemens. I stayed there for five years. With the growth of the Internet, I decided that I wanted to have my own business as a consultant to people wanting to set up websites. I went to the bank and they loaned me some motley. Two months after I got this, I left Siemens and took a management course at Kenya College of Communications Technology. This was a short course which taught me how to run my own communications business. My business is now doing very well, and I have five people working for me.

听力原文： Welcome to the 2002 International Sales Conference. As you know, this is a chance for salespeople from different countries to meet. I'm Peter Roberts, the Sales Director of Fashion House. This is Alex Smy the, the MD.

We start with a session today on a key issue for us-company strategy. Alex will lead that. I think you'll be interested in the ideas he's going to talk about. In the next session, from the coffee break until lunchtime, we'd like you to think about what these ideas mean for each country we work in. I think we've called that 'Workshops' in the schedule.

We've left you some free time before dinner. There are drinks in the hotel lounge at seven o'clock Please all meet there before moving into the Blue Room for the meal itself.

Tomorrow, Sunday, we start at 9 am. Alex wanted to schedule a product demonstration. I'd also hoped to fit in sales training. We finally derided to go with Alex's idea. Please can you be ready to start the session punctually. That session's followed by one called 'Discussion Groups', where we'll be looking at issues raised during the first session of the day. But we hope you'll not only talk but also think of an action plan by the end of the session.

We haven't scheduled a sit-down lunch for tomorrow. Instead, we'll have a buffet at 12.30. That'll leave time for our guest speaker, Susan James. Most of you know her from last year, and I'm sure you'll all be interested in what she has to say about customer contact. Her session will include some reports from research about how clients feel when approached by salespeople and how this experience can be imp'roved.

And then at five o'clocK the coach will take us all to the airport. Right, that's enough of the introductions. Let's now start the first session.

How to approach Listening Test Part Three

?In this part of the Listening Test you listen to a monologue, e.g. a presentation.

?Note all possible answers as you listen for the first time. Do not make an immediate decision.

?Do not worry if you do not know the answers. You will hear the recording a second time.

?Listen for overall meaning. Do not choose an answer just because you hear the same words in the recording as in the question.

?Decide on your final answer only after you have listened for the second time.

?Check that you have used no more than two words in each numbered space.
