Question 1. You hear a man telling a friend about an email he has received. Woman: So tell me exactly what happened. Man: Well, I got one of those emails that looked as if it came from my bank. It said I was at risk of identity theft and told me I had to log on and verify my account information. I was really worried. Woman: So what did you do? Man: Well, I was about to reply, to give them the information they wanted, but then I thought I ought to check with my bank first. So I rang my branch and they said they never sent emails like this. But it looked so realistic - it had my bank logo on it and it had links to real websites. Woman: I've heard of that before. Apparently, it's a very common scam which everyone needs to be aware of. Question 2. You hear someone talking about her first impressions of someone. Woman: The first time I met Ben was at a party. We were introduced to each other by Charlie, a mutual friend, and we chatted for a few minutes - you know, we exchanged the usual pleasantries: 'Where do you live?'; 'What do you do?'; 'How do you know Charlie?' - that sort of thing. Then he started talking about his job - he seemed very self- centred and that put me off a bit, but I didn't think much about it. A couple of weeks later, he phoned me and asked if I'd like to meet for a drink. I ummed and ahhed a bit and then I said, 'Yeah, why not?' So we met and he was really nice. He even said he was sorry if he'd come over as a bit arrogant at the party.

Question 3. You hear a conversation between a young man and an older relative. Young man: I wonder if I could ask your advice. Older man: Sure. How can I help? Young man: Well, I'm going for a job interview next week and I'm thinking about how to do my best. They've already got my CV, so they know about my qualifications, and obviously I must look my smartest at the interview and sound as intelligent as I can. Older man: Do you know all about the company? Young man: Not yet, but I'll be doing a bit of research at the weekend so that I can ask sensible questions about the kind of work I'd be doing if I got the job. Older man: Good idea. So what are you worried about? Young man: I want them to see what I'm really like - you know, I don't want to have to pretend to be someone I'm not. Older man: That's fine. Just be yourself. I'm sure they appreciate that. Question 4. You hear someone describing how he heard about winning a competition for a mobile phone. Man: Last year, I got an email telling me I'd won a mobile phone in a competition. I couldn't remember going in for a competition, but that didn't matter. I had to email my debit card details so they could charge me for the cost of shipping the phone to me. Like an idiot, I made a basic mistake by giving them my card details and the address for the phone to be delivered to. Needless to say the phone never arrived, but my bank statement showed that money was being taken out of my account.
