Detailed Guide to BEC 2 Listening 1
This part in each Listening Test paper contains three telephone conversations. There is a short incomplete form in the Question Paper for each telephone conversation. The incomplete form contains 4 spaces which you should fill in as you listen to the conversation.
You should listen very carefully to each conversation, especially names, numbers, and simple facts. While you listen, look at the form and write the appropriate word or figure as soon as you hear it spoken. Don t waft until the end of the conversation before you start writing. This is a test of your
ability to identify words and short phrases rather than a test of your memory.
Read the form to obtain or follow the gist of the telephone conversation as you hear ft. Frequently, the same or similar words and phrases will be used. Almost all the information you will hear is given in the same order as that appearing in the form in your question book.
If you think you have missed a piece of information, don t worry. Above all, don t look back at the words and phrases in the form. Try to find the present place in the form as quickly as possible. Remember that you will hear the conversation again to enable you to check all the information. Sometimes you can glance ahead at a heading in the table. This approach will help you to recognise the word, number or phrase to write in the form when you hear ft in the telephone conversation.
The conversations may include simple information for messages, notes and diaries as well as enquiries, requests, invitations, orders, complaints, plans, bookings, arrangements, and confirmation of requests and arrangements.
In the following example, candidates hear a woman asking to speak to another woman who has left her office. She gives the man who answers the phone a message for the woman. Although there are three telephone conversations in Part One, only one is given here as an example. Note that the instructions have been slightly aftered here to take account of this.

Detailed Guide to BEC 2 Listening 3
PART THREE
This part consists of an interview, conversation, discussion or presentation and involves 1 or 2 speakers. The questions take the form of 8 multiple-choice questions, each comprising 3 options: 1 correct option and 2 distractors. It is necessary for you to listen very carefully to the talk, looking at
the multiple-choice questions as you listen.
Try to answer each multiple-choice question as quickly as possible. If you spend too long thinking about the answer to a certain question, you may miss an important part of the talk. In any case, you will lose your place in the talk and find it harder to answer the next question. It is extremely important to try to follow the talk and the questions at the same time, matching each multiple-choice question with the appropriate part of the talk., Above all, try not to worry too much if you don t hear the answer to a multiple-choice question.Read the next one or two questions (or even more, if necessary) and try to listen for the particular topic or subject of each question in the talk.
In the following example, a salesman is talking to a potential business customer. As you listen, you must decide which sentence is correct and mark the appropriate letter (A, B or C).
You hear.
You will hear a negotiation between a salesman and a potential customer.The salesman is trying to sell a number of fax machines to a certain business while someone in the business is trying to negotiate the best price and terms. Choose the correct ending for each of the sentences 1 - 8. Mark one letter A, B or C for the ending you choose.
S1: Thank you very much for the demonstration of the new fax machine which you re marketing. I can tell you now that we re very interested in purchasing a quantity for our branch offices as well as for our headquarters. This will involve about 40 machines in all - provided that we can reach a
suitable agreement with you.
S2: I m very happy to heart hat. I m sure you ll find the machines very reliable indeed.
S1: Can you give me again the minimum price per machine - bearing in mind that we re talking about as many as 40 machines?
S2: Well, our normal wholesale price including delivery works out at RMB9,000 per machine. But we can let you have a 12 per cent discount
for any order of over 20 machines.
S1: Actually, we were hoping for a discount of up to 20 per cent.
S2: Oh dear, I m afraid that isn t going to be possible. I d be in trouble with my company manager if I agreed to such a large discount. 12 per cent is our usual discount on bulk orders. I ll tell you what I ll do. I ll see my supervisor and try my best to get a further 3 per cent for
you. That ll give you a total of 15 per cent discount.
S1: Is there any further discount for early settlement?
S2: Oh dear. Our chief accountant won t be very happy. but we can sometimes make a reduction of 2 per cent if the bill is settled in full within ten days.
S1: At the other extreme, would a 6-month credit period be acceptable to you?
S2: I m afraid not. If we do give you a 15 per cent discount, it ll use up almost all of our profit, and we ll require payment within one month. I just can t do anything about extending that it s simply not going to be possible for us.
S1: I understand, but what about warranty? What s the period of warranty on these machines?
S2: It s 6 months, but I can make an exception in your case and give you a one-year warranty period.
S1: So that s free repairs if any machines develop a fault within a one-year period. But what happens if any of the machines break down after a year?
S2: Well, we have a special scheme: it s RMB2,000 or so for a years cover. And we guarantee to carry out any repairs on site within 24 hours provided that the machines are used in offices within the city. If you phone us before ten o clock in the morning, we usually come out to your office or factory the same day. Outside the city ft will obviously take longer. Occasionally, we may even ask you to send the faulty machine to our nearest factory.
S1: I understand. Now what about delivery time?
S2: Usually two weeks from receipt of your order - three weeks at the most.
S1: Can you deliver within one week? It s all very urgent in our particular case. We run the risk of losing business until we have the machines.
S2: Well, if you decide now and let me have a firm order with a 1 0 per cent deposit, I think we can promise to get the machines to you by one week tomorrow - that ll be eight days. We ll give your order top priority - and you can have 17 per cent discount provided we receive the full amount in ten days from now.

Ms. Martha Weston
Word Processing Supervisor
ABC Company
Post Office Box 1072
28 King's Street London
Dear Ms. Weston.
Performance of the Cpt Equipment
I'm Pleased to tell you about our experience with the CPT Word Processor as you requested recently... ...example ... .. I assume you have looked at several machines and have narrowed down your choices. Here are my observations.
An approach to adopting word processors
Eighteen months ago we adopted CPT equipment on limited scale with the idea in mind that we could gradually get rid of electric typewriters as we became familiar with the word processor. ...... 8 ......The stations are actually in pairs so each pair can share a common printer...... 9......
We use the equipment as dedicated word processors, although we do have the ability to link up with our computer installation.
The step-at-a-time development of our word-processing center has, we think, saved us money and training time. ......10......
Performance
In terms of performance , the CPT equipment is excellent. ... ...11.. ...Moreover our service contract and warranty have covered all maintenance costs.
We have software packages that check spelling and signal when a mistake occure. ...... 12 .....Using both printers , we recently prepared 1200 individually typed form letter mailings a under four hours. We have no complaint about our preparation of executive reports.
Example: I
A So it works very well and has so many different functions.
B Also it has reduced the confusion that exists about buying software packages .
C The train stops at each station for only fifteen minutes.
D We began with two work stations and now have four.
E Our routine letters are prepared from disc-stored masters.
F The Rotary W printer with a speed of 45 characters a second can easily handle two input stations.
G In contrast ,its size and weight are ideal for carrying.
H We have not yet experienced mechanical problems so far.
I We are pleased with its performance and multi-functions.
PART THREE
Questions 13-20
. Read this text about the problem of Barclays Bank.
The New Look
When Sir John Quinton, then chairman of Barclays Bank, was given his marching orders last April, Britain's biggest bank thought it had found the scapegoat for its sudden fall from grace and profits ,Andrew Buxton, the bank's managing director and an offspring of its founding families ,was a pointed chairman and chief executive ,with effect from January 1st of next year. It seemed a glorious victory for good business management. Is the problem solve do Certainly not.
1. No sooner had Mr. Buxton been appointed chairman and chief executive than big
shareholders and quite a few board members began quietly to question his ability to do both jobs at once. Now ,weeks before he is due to move up ,the questions are louder. Many wish the bank had seized the opportunity Lasy April to separate the two top posts. And privately. Some wonder whether Mr. Buxton is the right man for either one. What started as a thoroughly British Whispering Campaign has assumed much bigger dimensions..
2. Mr. Buxton has suffered it all ,but in truth he has no way out. After weeks of talking to shareholders and discussing with his non-executive directors ,he has accepted that Barclays will separate the top jobs sometimes in the future. How7 He says that there has been no formal discussion of it in the boardroom.
3. Formally or informally, it has been agreed that Mr. Buxton will not be moved from his chairmanship, and that Barclays must find a strong chief executive. Opinions differ as to whether this person should be chosen from inside or outside the bank. Several board members believe that there is no ideal candidate inside Barclays.
4. Neither shareholders nor non-executive directors want to wait long. If the right candidate can be found, the bank could combine the announcement of a new appointment with its annual results at the end of March. Mr Buxton stressed the importance of getting this next step right, particularly since any appointment will mean overturning a management reorganization that was announced only eight months ago.

Question 47
(Sample for reference) .
Nowadays, less people like to spend their holidays at home. More people go camping outside or even travel abroad. The changes are caused mainly by three factors. First ,people become more open. Instead of staying at home, they visit foreign countries to know the different races. Secondly ,in the 1990s , house wives are more free from the heavy housework with more and more household utensils. Families are very happy to spend holidays outside with mothers or wives. Thirdly, travelling abroad can also mean enjoying comfortable weather in another country. Therefore less people go to crowded seaside ,they turn to other ways.

Part Three.
Questions 23 to 30.
Retailer: A person's life style has a significant effect on the purcharsing process. So how do I determine and understand the life style of my target market?
Sociologist : The consumer's activities , interests ,and opinions or AIO can be used to analyze life styles and their impact on purchase behavior. Activities, interests, and opinions are especially useful when they can be related to demographic data. Grouping people according to these three criteria will reveal substantial differences in product usage ,time spent shopping, enjoyment of shopping experience, location and hours of the store, and so on. A typical consumer AIO survey would include questions on membership , hobbies, travel, shopping, work, and entertainment activities , involvement in the home , the family, and community interests and feelings about economics, politics, and advertising. The use of the AIO measurement has also been called psychographics ;it is in the early stages of development.
Retailer :So the AIO survey of consumers is not enough. What else should I pay attention to?
Sociologist: Culture, social class, reference groups and class consciousness are social dimensions of life style that have an impact on purchasing behavior. A person's culture affects the importance of family ,religion ,education and other concerts. North Americans act differently than South Americans or Europeans because of their cultural heritage. For example, in the United States, purchasing decisions are more decentralized; religion has a declining impact on behavior. From a retailing perspective, the norms or standards of behavior that are influenced by culture are most important. Culture has an impact on all aspects of the purchasing process.
Retailer : How does social classes influence a person's purchasing behavior?
Sociologist :Lower-class consumers have limited information sources and seek local ,friendly retailers. Middle class consumers utilize media information and extensive search. They are willing to shop out of their neighborhoods. Upper-class consumers use media information and shop at prestige stores. For products or services that are conspicuous ,reference groups have an important role in the purchasing process. Those reference groups that are face-to-face have the most impact on the purchasing process. The different types and uses of reference groups need to be understood , As an example ,one's neighbours are a membership reference group. However ,a retailer must distinguish between the use of neighbours as a reference group by suburbanites and the use by city dwellers. The suburbanite will follow his or her neighbours and know them much better. City dwellers are more independent and know little about their neighbours.
Retailer :Don't you think motives are very important in purchasing behavior?
Sociologist : Yes. Personality , motives , and performance are individual dimensions of life style that have an impact on purchasing behavior. A consumer's personality traits affect the purchase process. For an impatient person, the process is short. For someone with little selfconfidence, the process is long. Post purchase satisfaction is very important to a statusseeker. Consumers have different motives (reasons) when they buy products. Motives are critical when the consumer ranks alternatives and makes a final decision. Motives do change in different situations. A person's performance in various roles determines his or her social acceptance and influences the purchasing process.
Retailer ,Thank you very much. I think I've learned about the importance of life style.
