Text 1
W: Hello, this is Dr. Maxwell’s office. My name is Tami. How may I direct your call?
M: I’d like to speak with Alison Simpson, please. (1) She’s a nurse there, but I believe
she’s on her break now. It’s about our son Jimmy
Text2
M: What time is your flight today?
W: Well, it was supposed to leave at 2:15 p.m., but the airline just called and told me
it was delayed until 7:15 p.m. At least this way, I can take my time and have lunch
at home. (2)
Text 3
W: You like reading a lot, don’t you?
M: Yeah, I find it very relaxing. The one I’m reading now is really exciting. (3)
W: It’s that good, huh?
M: Oh, yeah. Ever since I started reading it, I haven’t been able to put it down.
Text 4
W: I’m sorry to call so early, but I wanted to let you know I’ve come down with 
something and won’t be able to come into work
today. I should be fine by tomorrow afternoon.
M: No problem. We’re having an office party tomorrow night, so I hope you’re well enough to come! (4)
Text 5
W: Bradley, this coffee tastes a little strange. What did you put in it?
M: It’s actually what I didn’t put in it. Rachel! We consume too much sweet stuff
these days. (5) It’s time for us to get back to natural flavors, don’t you think?
Text6
W: I’m here to pick up the flowers for Anna.
M: I’m sorry, but those won’t be ready for another two hours. (6)
W: She’s getting married in two hours! I need time to bring them back so that I can set
them up before the guests come. (6) (7)
M: We haven’t even started putting them together yet. We told you on the phone
they’d be ready by noon. It’s only 10:00. (7)
W: Is there another flower company that can deliver them in the next thirty minutes?
M: I doubt it. Flower companies don’t normally do rush orders.
Text 7
W: It’s nice and quiet out here in the countryside.
M: My grandpa used to take me fishing here when I was five.
W: My parents never took me anywhere when I was little. I guess we went to Los
Angeles to visit my aunt and uncle a few times when I was in sixty and seventh
grade. (8) But other than that, we just stayed at home.
M: It’s important to slow down and breathe some fresh air once in a while.
W: Absolutely. So, what’s the plan for the rest of the day?
M: I figured we could go hiking and then have a picnic on the top of the hill. (9)
W: Awesome! (9)
Text 8
M: So, what do you want to study when you go to college, Megan?
W: I’m not sure. Mr. Sanders. My dad would be excited if I studied medicine, but that
sounds too difficult. I’ve always been interested in art, but I’m not sure if I want
to be a professional artist.
M: Well, you could study art history. That was my wife’s major, you know.
W: Really? What did you major in?
M: Oh, I always wanted to be a businessman, so that’s what I did in college. (10) It’s
not for everyone, but I liked it. I wish I had taken some other classes, though. If you have a chance to learn about a bunch of
different things and then make a decision, I think that would be your best bet. (12)
W: That’s good advice, Mr. Sanders. Thanks!
M: My pleasure. If you want to talk more, come next door anytime you want. (11)
W: I sure will. Thank you!
Text 9
M: OK, your bill comes to thirty-six dollars.
W: Well, I never carry cash on me anymore. Can I just
Venmo it to you? (13)
M: What does that mean?
W: Venmo is an app that you download for your
smartphone.(13) It connects to your bank or a    credit card, and you can transfer money to other people in
about ten seconds.
M: What? That’s fast! I’ve used PayPal before, but it sometimes takes several minutes
for the transfer to be completed.(14) Plus, they charge you a fee for sending the
money.
W: Venmo is free if you use a checking account. But if you use a credit card, I think
they charge you a small fee.
M: That’s cool. I never use my credit card, anyway. So, what can I do with the money
once it’s there? Can I use Venmo at stores?
W: You still can’t use it at most restaurants and big chain stores, but a lot of smaller
shops accept it. (15) It’s getting more popular all the time.
M: All right, how can I sign up for Venmo?
W: Download the app from the App Store, and I’ll email you an invitation to join (16)

Good morning! I’m Samuel Davis, and this is the ten o’clock news report. I hope everyone is having a fine Monday morning. It’s getting pretty wet out there, so grab an umbrella and stay dry! (17) I’m here today with Matt Miller, who has completed his 29,000-mile journey in just six weeks, with a total of 180 hours in flight. Beginning in California, he made twenty-five stops in fourteen different countries including England, Italy,.Greece, Egypt, and Thailand. (18) His final trip was a sixteen-hour flight from Hawaii back to California, just half an hour less than his longest flight from Samoa to Hawaii. (19) Born in South Dakota, Matt is a freshman at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and has said that as a child he was scared of flying. All of that changed when he received his pilot license at just seventeen. After that, he only spent a few years planning everything out before beginning his journey around the world. Matt is here with us today for an interview. Welcome Matt! First, why don’t you tell all our listeners about the craziest thing you saw during your adventure? (20)
