Collecting stamps

The collecting of postage stamps is an hobby that interests people of all ages and all
walks of life. The more valuable stamp in the world is the one-cent British Guiana
magenta of 1856. Only one copy is known to exist; it is valued at about $50,000. There
are another stamps worth several thousands dollars while many others are valued at

hundreds of dollars. Yet most stamps are very expensive. There are hundreds of stamps
worth a few dollars and many more hundreds that you may buy with a few cents. So you
see that stamp collecting is not merely a rich man’s hobby. Each stamp collection finds
his own stamps fascinating, no matter how much or how many money he spends on
them. The reason is that there is always a story behind postage stamps. The countries in
the world use them as a mean of telling the world about their industries, their culture,
and their great men. They also use stamps to celebrate importance events in his history.
So while a stamp collector is enjoying hobby, he is also storing up knowledge about all
kinds of things from every corner of the globe.

SECTION 1 
Questions 1 - 10

Adam Hello Cheap Calls Unlimited, this is Adam O’Shaughnessy. How can I help you?
Mandy I heard something on the TV the other day about cheap local and national calls. Do

you have a new offer available at the moment?

Adam That's right! You would have heard about our special no-limit offer.
Mandy How does it work? How can I save?

Adam Well, do you make many calls outside your local area?

Mandy Yes, as a matter of fact, I often call my mother-in-law in Sydney and I sometimes call
Perth and Melbourne, we've got family there

Adam OK. Where are you calling from?
Mandy Brisbane

Adam Right! This would be perfect for you. How it works is you tell us which city you call

the most and we set up our special offer of 3 cents per minute no matter what time of
the day you call. But it gets better! We also offer you 10-cent local calls. No other
telephone carrier can offer you such a cheap plan!

Mandy Wow! That is cheaper than what I currently pay. But, what about international calls. I
often call America. What are your rates to The States?

Adam Our rates to the USA are also competitive. You can call America for 6 cents per
minute – this also includes a connection fee of 15 cents.

Mandy That's competitive all right! So…how do I sign up?

Adam Well, we can do it right here over the phone if you like…or I can send you out an
application form…or I can email you the details with the form attached. Which would
you prefer?

Mandy How long will it take over the phone?
Adam Just a matter of 4 or 5 minutes.
Mandy OK, let's do it now.

Adam Right then, first off, I need your name and address

</div>
(12)<div class='page_container' data-page=12>

Adam Good, now what about your telephone number, date of birth and do you have an email
address?

Mandy Yes. The telephone is 55 22 3481 my date of birth is July 13, 1972 and my email
address is 's M-A-N-D-Y at T-E-L-E dot com…why do you need
my date of birth?

Adam Right…OK. Yes, we request your date of birth for security reasons. We will ask you

for this each time you call us to request information about your account… not for
making a payment…but, you know…if you wish to change any of your details…or
change your plan…you know…those kinds of things

Mandy Ok, I understand

Adam OK… Right…well, we're finished. Do you have any other questions at all?
Mandy Yes, when does this new service actually start?

Adam Yes, I'm going to send the information to our sales department. They will process it
today and your new service will be ready tomorrow. By next month you will really
start to experience the savings!

Mandy Fantastic. OK that's all I wanted to know…Oh, when will I receive the bill?

Adam That'll be one month from the day you signed up. It will be sent on the same day
every month thereafter…unless you request a change. We can send them every two or
every three months if you would prefer?

SECTION 2 
Questions 1 - 5

Dr.
Thomas

…Ok, I’d like to take a moment now to talk about the assessment requirements
for this semester. Firstly as you can clearly see, on your handout, there are 4
assessments this semester – an oral report, an essay and two exams. They are

weighted 20% each for the oral report and the essay and the remaining 60% as
you can see is divided equally between the two exams. Yes, John.

Student 1
(Man)

Yes, Dr. Thomas, regarding the oral report, can we present this with a partner or
must they be handled individually?

</div>
(13)<div class='page_container' data-page=13>

or 3. This year, we’ve decided to try them singly and see how they go. We’re
certainly not locked into any one way…all we do ask is that you use PowerPoint
for your presentations. The university has all the equipment you will need to
deliver the presentation, further details can be found at the Library… Yes, young
lady at the back…

Student 2
(woman)

I noticed that there is no word limit given on the essay. Can you give us some
more details about that?

Dr Thomas Actually, the limit is listed…it just happens to be on the next page…a technical
problem with the printing! Now you’ll be pleased to hear that we’ve reduced the
word count on the essay from last year. Before it was 2000 now it’s fifteen
hundred…so that gives you some more time for your oral report, right!

Student 2 Can you give us any indication of the topics that will be available…
Dr T Ahh, not at the moment.

Student 2 None at all? I’d like to make an early start on it if I can..
