TRANSCRIPT Hello. This is the Cambridge Assessment English Flyers Listening Test.

Part 1 Listen and look. There is one example.

• GIRL: Look at this picture of the new shopping centre in my town.
• MAN: It looks nice, but they haven't finished it yet, I think. There's a man who's going to do some work.
• GIRL: The man who's wearing a baseball cap?
• MAN: Yes.
• GIRL: That's Richard. He's a painter and he lives on our street.

Can you see the line? This is an example. Now you listen and draw lines.

• GIRL: Can you see the woman who's holding the envelopes? That's my Aunt Sarah.
• MAN: Does she work there?
• GIRL: Yes she does. Her office is on the fifth floor.
• MAN: Ah... so she's going to take the elevator to her office?
• GIRL:That's right. There are too many stairs!
• MAN: Do you know that man in the uniform?
• GIRL: The man who's cooking something?
• MAN: No, not him... the other one.
• GIRL: Oh OK... you mean the firefighter?
• MAN: Yes. He's waving to someone.
• GIRL: His name's Oliver. He's a friend of my dad's.
• MAN: Look at that woman's scarf. It's verybright!
• GIRL: That's Emma... my friend's mom. She always wears clothes like that.
• MAN: Does she? I think she's just bought a newspaper.
• GIRL: Perhaps... she goes to the shopping centre every day to buy something or have a coffee.
• MAN: OK. So, she doesn't work there?
• GIRL: No, she doesn't.
• GIRL: Another one of my dad's friends is there too.
• MAN: Is he the man who's wearing the shirt and striped tie?
• GIRL: No. He's going into that shop... look.
• MAN: Oh yes... the man in the sweater?
• GIRL: That's right. His name's William.
• MAN: He looks nice.
• GIRL: Do you see the woman who's reading the magazine?
• MAN: Yes. What's her name?
• GIRL: That's Helen. She's my mom's best friend.
• MAN:Her hair's the same as your mom's...long and straight.
• GIRL: I know!

Now listen to Part 1 again.

[The recording is repeated.]

That is the end of Part 1.

Part 2 Listen and look. There is one example.

• MAN: OK, children. I want to tell you about our school camping trip next Monday.
• GIRL: I love camping! Can I ask a question, please?
• MAN: Yes, of course, Katy.
• GIRL: Where are we going to stay?
• MAN: Well, this year we're going to stay in the desert for two nights.
• GIRL: Oh wow! That's so cool! Can you see the answer? Now you listen and write.
• GIRL: Where will we camp?
• MAN: We won't be far from the famous Silver Pyramid, sorry I mean the Gold Pyramid. You can actually see it from our camping place.
• GIRL: Oh I've heard about that. My dad said it's amazing!
• MAN: It is! I've seen it several times.
• GIRL: What do we need to take with us for the camping trip?
• MAN: Well, just the usual things really..nothing special. The school will bring a hat for everyone because it'll be very hot there. And you mustn't forget to put your sunglasses in your bag.
• GIRL: OK. What will we do on the first day?
• MAN: We'll learn about the life of the people who live there... their food, their work, their homes. We'll also see some wild horses that live there. We can't ride those but you can all go for a ride on camels.
• GIRL: Cool! I've never done that before. So what are we going to eat? Well, you're going to eat something very nice on the first night. We'll cook it on the fire... meatballs and rice.
• GIRL: That sounds fantastic! My mum often makes that. Who's going to come with us on the trip?
• MAN: Well, I'll be there. And Miss Birch, the new science teacher, will come too.
• GIRL: Erm, I don't know her. How do you spell her name?
• MAN: It's B-I-R-C-H. You'll like her. She's very kind.
• GIRL: OK. I can't wait!

Part 3 Listen and look. There is one example.

Where did Aunt Betty buy each of

these things in her cupboard?

• Boy: I like your belt, Aunt Betty. Where did you get it?
• WOMAN: I bought that on holiday. We visited a market and they had lots of nice things there.
• Boy: Was it expensive?
• WOMAN: No. It was actually very cheap! Can you see the letter B? Now you listen and write a letter in each box.
• BOY: What about this necklace? Did you buy that on holiday, too?
• WOMAN: Yes, I did. I got it on the day that we left home.
• BOY: Oh? So, did you get it when you were waiting at the airport?
• WOMAN: That's right! This crown's really cool! You worked as an actor, didn't you? Did you buy it at a shop in the theatre?
• WOMAN: Well, I wore it when I was acting. I played a queen!
• BOY: Wow! I'm sure you were great!
• WOMAN: Thanks. I loved doing it. I found it in a small shop at the museum in town one day when I was there with my friend. She bought one, too.
• BOY: Is she also an actor?
• WOMAN: Yes, she is.
• WOMAN: I've worn these gloves a lot.
• BOY: They're nice, but they look a bit old now.
• WOMAN: Well, I've had them for ten years. I always wore them when I was travelling to work.
• BOY: Do you remember where you bought them?
• WOMAN: Let me think. Oh yes... in the shop at the castle.
• Boy: Oh I know. They have some really cool things there! This ring's great. Was it a present?
• WOMAN: No, I bought it when I was on holiday with your uncle. There was one just like it in the shop at our hotel.
• BOY: So did you decide to buy it then?
• WOMAN: No, we left the shop and walked to the beach and guess what?
• BOY: What?
• WOMAN: I found the same one there but it was much cheaper!
• Boy: So you got that one.
• WOMAN: That's right!
• Boy: Mom has an umbrella that looks like this. Did you go shopping together?
• WOMAN: I don't think so, no. I bought this when I was shopping at the market one day...
• BOY: OK.
• WOMAN: No, wait a minute... I remember now...I got it at the shop at the train station on my way to the city because it started to rain!
• BOY: I like the colours. It's pretty!
• WOMAN: I love it, too. It's my favourite one!

3 What was the weather like on Friday?

• Boy: Last Friday I saw something amazing!

• WOMAN: WOW! You're lucky! We just had a lot of fog here.
• BOY: I know. My friend told me that, too.

4 Which food did Michael eat every day for breakfast?

• WOMAN: Was the food nice?
• Boy: Yes, it was wonderful. Everyone's favourite meal was breakfast.
• WOMAN: Why was that?
