Question 6 – 9:
In an attempt to better analyze the reasons for success, Glaxo looked at various statistics
and results of their multidimensional rating system that is based on sales, market value,
profits and assets. They then regrouped these 1,000 companies by industry and analyzed
what was happening to each of them in terms of profits earned, long- and short-term
return on equity, the dividends paid, sales growth and the market price of the company's
stock. They received the assistance of one outside company in making growth forecasts
and another company that could audit accounting methods.
With the assistance of these firms, they crossed out corporations from their study that
didn't meet the standards of accounting, management, or legal issues. Of the 1,000
companies, fewer than 100 passed in all categories. One global high performer was the
Japanese company Nippon Telegraph & Telephone. This company showed a 49% growth
in profits and a 46% total return in the past year. The debt-to-total capital is only 12% and
the growth forecast for the next three to five years is expected to be 40%.

Your colleague from the Florida School of Hospitality Administration, Stephanie Wayne,
recommended that I contact you. Stephanie is currently my client at Canyon Consulting. I
help her plan and devise strategies for her company to successfully launch new products.
As you may already know, the consulting business is quite stressful and I believe it is time
for me to take a vacation. I heard from Stephanie that you operate a renowned
international travel agency. Accordingly, I would be very pleased if you could help me plan
an itinerary. I would like to travel with 10 acquaintances of mine. We are planning to
spend at least three weeks in Asia, specifically in China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines.
Since one of my acquaintances speaks Chinese and Korean, we just need a Japanese
translator to accompany us on our stay in Japan.
If you are interesting in helping me out, please let me know at your earlier convenience.
Sincerely,
Goulet Wilson

The Health Factory will introduce a new line of vitamins, a company spokesman said
yesterday. The vitamins are intended for athletic men and women, who are looking for a
vitamin that will replace vital nutrients lost during strenuous exercise. Unlike regular
vitamins, the Health Factory Active Essentials 2020 have more iron, calcium, and
potassium. The new vitamins have been tested on performance by up to 20 percent. Of
course, health products like the Active Essentials vitamins are not cheap. One month’s
supply of the new vitamins costs about $200. To promote the new product, however, the
Health Factory is offering a special 30 percent discount to anyone who purchases the new
vitamins with their Health Factory card. For more information on the new product or to
apply for a Health Factory card, call the company’s customer service hotline at 1-800-326-

W: Lance, I went on a business trip last week. But I've never had to turn in an
expense report before. Could you help me out?
W: Yeah, I was there. Our boss told me to keep my meal and taxi receipts. How
should I submit them to the accounting department?
M: I'd suggest entering all the information into the report first. Then, scan each
receipt and attach them along with the report to an e-mail. Ah. and address it to Ms.
Rivera. She handles all businesses related to expenses.
2+3.
W: Yes, it is. But, your meeting was moved to one of our other conference rooms.
M: Oh, thanks. I'm still settling in here since it's my first day of work. Can you tell me
where I should go?
W: Sure. Head to the 14th floor. When you get off the elevator on that floor, go right.
The meeting is taking place in the space directly across from the break room.
4.
M: Hmm ... I'm concerned we'd need to buy additional delivery trucks. More
customers would use that service if there were no charge.
W: Well, we could just lease them instead. That would require less initial investment.
M: I like your suggestion. Do you believe we should prepare a cost projection report
before we discuss the idea with our supervisor?
W: Yes, let's do that. Can I get my tablet back from you? I lent it to you yesterday,
and it contains the report template we'll need.

M: Thank you for calling Jenkins Automotive Insurance. This is Bernard speaking.
What can I do for you?
W: My name is Candace Black, and I'm one of your insurance policy holders. I was
just in an accident outside Austin, and I would like my car to be towed to an auto
repair shop. I don't feel comfortable driving it.
W: Yes, I did. In fact, an officer is going to stay here with me until the tow truck
arrives.
2.
W1: aren’t you both pleased that our agency has had more booking lately?
W2: yes. It’s probably because we received an outstanding review on famous travel
blogger George Leeland’s Web page.
M: I agree and that reminds me… is everything ready for the tour we’re leading
today?
W1: I just stocked the bus with water and snacks. And we’ve got the safety gear in
case any wild animals get too close to the vehicle.
M: did you also bring those cans of bugs spray we ordered, Fiona?
W2: sorry, no. I’ll grab those from our office before we depart.
3+4.
M: As you can see, the apartment we're in comes with two bedrooms, a bathroom,
living room, and modern kitchen. Additionally, the Chicago skyline can be seen from
the bedroom. Rent is S1,900 a month. If you're interested in filling out an application,
I have one right here.
W: The apartment is very impressive. But I have another showing tomorrow, which
I'd like to follow through with before making a decision on where to live.
M: Of course. Just be aware that another potential tenant saw the unit this morning.
Although she has yet to submit an application, she assured me that she was going to
do so soon. Whoever turns one in first will be given priority.

W: Excuse me. Does your shop offer international shipping services? I'd like to get
this teapot. But I'm worried it might break in my suitcase on my flight back to Spain.
M: We can't send items overseas, unfortunately. However, I can put the teapot in
bubble wrap for you. That should protect it while you're traveling.
W: Wonderful . . . I love your store, by the way. I often travel to England and always
stop in here.
M: Thank you, would you like a card for our loyalty program then? You can earn
points with everything you buys.
2.
W: Mr. Wesley, here's the completed inventory report you wanted. Ah . . . our shop
is running low on stationery goods, like notebooks and pens.
M: OK. It seems that the free delivery service we offered in September helped us sell
more of those items. Can you please order new stock by this weekend?
W: I was just about to do that. But I don't know what happened to the list of
suppliers that used to be posted in the office.
M: Oh, sorry. It's locked in the top desk drawer because it contains confidential
information. Let me grab a key for you to open that.
3.
W: I'm looking to purchase some moisturizer. My skin gets a bit dry in the winter.
Where can I find these products?
M: I'm glad you like it. We just opened last week. Did you have any trouble finding it?
W: No. I live near the bus terminal, so it was easy to get here by subway.
M: That's right . . . There are only two stops between the terminal and Norton
Station if you take Line 3.
W: Well, that line isn't running today because the track is being repaired. But luckily
there's another one with the same number of stops. I took that one.

M: excuse me. Can you see if I still have any books checked out? I don’t think I do,
but I’m not certain. My account is under the name David Harris.
W: just a minute… Well, it looks like you still have a novel by Brad Thompson called,
uh, Forgotten Time. It was released just last month.
M: oh, right. I forgot about that one. I’ll be visiting my family in Tacoma for a few
days, so I’ll drop it off next week
W: ok, but it’s due tomorrow, which means you’ll have to pay a late fee if you bring it
back then. I can renew it now, if you’d like
(File 5)
1+2.
W: Pardon me. Is there an ATM I can use other than the one by the bank's entrance?
Quite a few people are in line to use that one.
W: Hmm . I'm in a bit of a rush. I need to withdraw cash before I fly to Vancouver for
a business trip.
M: Well, the teller at the end of the counter is helping another customer, but that
shouldn't take too long. You can get cash from her once she's available. I'm sure
you'll find that option faster than using the machine.
3.
W: Excuse me. I was here about an hour ago to open a new savings account. I think I
accidentally left my cell phone here. Has anyone found it?
M: Let me check our lost and found box . . . urn .. Sorry, I don't see anything like that
here. Are you sure you didn't misplace it elsewhere?
W: Well, I went to the library earlier this morning. I plan to check there next.
M: OK. And I'll e-mail our staff and tell them to immediately report it if they find
anything.

M: Hi. I'm interested in seeing the musical Coral Sea. Are there any tickets available
for the opening show on Saturday?
W: A few left, but they're going fast. The leading actor was nominated for several
awards last year, so there is a lot of interest in the play.
M: Great, I'm glad some seats are still available. I'd like two that are next to each
other and as close to the stage as possible.
2.
W: Oh, I can't believe Pasadena Gallery is going to display my artwork! Thank you so
much.
M: We take great pride in supporting local artists, and I think your paintings will
appeal to our clients. Plus, if you go on to achieve success, we can say that your first
exhibit was held at our gallery.
W: Well, I'm very excited. By the way, have you decided on the dates yet?
M: A two-week show would probably work best. I'm thinking about holding it from
August 27 to September 10.
W: Ah . . . Could it start one week earlier—on August 20? I'm traveling to Berlin to
participate in a meet-and-greet event with other aspiring painters on September 8.

W: The Tan Film Festival is coming to BeIlville next month. I can't believe it!

holiday during that time and see every movie they're going to show. I'm also going to
get the signatures of every star I know. Would you like to join me?
M: I wish I could, but I won't be here next month. The company is sending me to our
head office in London for the annual managerial training for a week.

is on the third floor. I'll call Mr. Baxter now and tell him that you're here. The

you arrange that for me?
M: I'm sorry. That shuttle is already full. But, I can place you on ... urn ... the 11:30
A.M. bus instead.
W: No, I'm afraid that would be too late as my flight is scheduled to depart at 1
o'clock. Could I go at another time?
M: Let me see. Yes, we have a spot open at 8:30 A.M. You'll be a bit early for your
flight, but there are no other times available. So, I think you'll have to take that one.

W: I'm not surprised. Food waste is an important issue, and Andrea Parker has
written a best-selling book on the topic.
M: Oh . . . I almost forgot. Sorry to say, but a valet parking driver called in sick. I know
you're overseeing that team as well. Hopefully, you can make things work with one

W: Tom, I want to let you know that I'm almost finished with the seating chart for
Friday's banquet. I'm trying to seat all the winners near the front of the venue.
M: Yes, they should have easy access to the stage. And that reminds me. We got an
e-mail from the caterer for the event about 30 minutes ago. Have you read it yet?
W: No. I've been focused on getting this chart finished. Beeman Corporation
expanded its guest list this morning. Did the e-mail indicate that there will be some
problems?
M: Everything's fine as we decided on the menu a month ago. The message just
mentioned the number of vegetarian meals that will be provided.

M: Right, I've got the actors' photographs framed for display. What else is there to
do?
W: Can you set up some tables where programs can be handed out?
M: Sure. There are a few in the basement. I'll ask Jacob to help me carry them up
here. His shift starts in 15 minutes.
W: OK. And finally, we need a spot where fans can take photos with the cast after the
show.
M: Let's put it where it was last year . . . in the area to the left when you enter the
building, just before you reach the refreshment stand.

Attention all passengers. Due to our airport expansion project, please note the
following changes. All domestic departures will board in the main terminal building,
at gates A, B, and C. All domestic arrivals will deplane outside the airport tarmac, and
passengers will be bussed into the main terminal. International flights will depart and
arrive at the annex terminal, gates D, E, F, and G. To get to the annex terminal, take
the airport subway, which boards in the lower level near gate A. It leaves every 10
minutes. We thank you for your patience as we expand the airport to serve you
better. Expansion work will last approximately 10 weeks. For more information about
the project, visit one of the information kiosks located throughout the airport, or call
our special hotline at 888-555-7473.

Welcome to the Washington Cultural Museum. My name is Sandra Jones and I'll be
your guide today. A guided tour in the gallery will take about an hour. We'll start
here in the Asian art gallery, where you'll see lots of exhibits showing a wide range of
contemporary paintings and sculptures in Asia. Before we enter the gallery, I'd like to
tell you a few things we should be aware of. Once inside the gallery, you are not
permitted to take flash photos. However, taking pictures without a flash is allowed.
Please refrain from eating and drinking in the exhibit area. Following the guided tour,
you will have lunch in the huge food court on the third floor of the museum. If you
happen to separate from our group, let's meet in front of the food court at noon.
Now, would you please follow me?

Good morning, everyone. I'm glad to see all of you here in the training session. As
most of you already know, we recently developed new computer programs in order
to enhance our daily operations. For warehouse workers, we'd like you to get used to
our new inventory software program. I'm sure this program will help you keep our
stock well organized. For instance, when our clients want to order something, you
can check whether we have certain items in stock immediately by using this new
software program. If you work in Accounting, you need to get your current
accounting program upgraded. With this updated program, you can calculate the
gross sales per day more accurately and quickly. Let's break up into groups of two
and learn how these software programs work.

I'm Mitch Bloomfield with this hour's top story. Hurricane Harry is moving south-
southeast about 25 miles off the Florida Coast, and is predicted to strike southern
Florida early this evening. Winds are forecasted to be 75- to 100-miles an hour, with
ocean swells up to 10 feet high. Florida authorities have ordered residents of coastal
cities to evacuate their homes for the next 24 hours, and two units of the National
Guard have been dispatched to assist elderly and disabled residents. Forecasters at
the national weather center have labeled Harry a level-2 hurricane and say it might
decrease to level-1 by the time it reaches land. Residents of islands in the Florida
Keys have also begun evacuating in case Harry suddenly veers farther south. This is
Mitch Bloomfield reporting for WROJ. The next update will be at top of the hour, or
whenever news breaks on news radio WROJ, 920 a.m.

Good evening, listeners. This is Henry Gomez from KTN Radio traffic news. Looking at
the expressways, traffic is slowly starting to pick up as we head into the evening on
Saturday. Particularly, there's a major delay at the West Coast Tunnel. It was
reported that there's a collision between two vehicles inside the tunnel. This has
forced the police to shut down one lane temporarily. The authorities said the tunnel
won't reopen until past midnight as it takes time to have those cars towed from the
tunnel. If you are driving into the city from the west side now, you are encouraged to
take the Silver Bridge instead. Also, just as a note if you're on southbound Interstate
seventy-five near Waterloo River, please be aware that there is currently a high-wind
advisory out for that area, So please drive safely. For more of your latest updates,
keep it tuned to KTN Radio. The next traffic news will be aired in an hour.

Thank you for coming to the grand opening of the Holmstead Library. It's taken 18
months to complete this building, but I think the wait has been worth it. This
magnificent ceiling-glass structure has been called the perfect marriage of function
and form, and I think all of us here today would agree with that statement. Now I'm
going to hand the microphone to a special guest, the man who designed this
beautiful edifice, Klaus Kirshner. Mr. Kirshner has flown all the way from Austria for
this occasion, and we are honored to have him with us. He is renowned throughout
the world for his innovative architecture and distinctive style. Would you please join
me in giving a warm Holmstead welcome to Klaus Kirshner!

Hello, Cathy. This is John Taylor from Accounting and I'm calling about the
reimbursement request you made yesterday. According to the request form you
submitted, you spent as much as 1,500 dollars during the business trip to Tokyo last
month. Though I went through all copies of receipts you attached to your expense
report I wasn't able to find the receipt for the hotel bill. It seems like you didn't
include it by mistake. I need it by the end of the day at the latest in order to process
your payment. Please give me a call and let me know if you can send it to me by
either e-mail or fax. Otherwise, you may have to wait another month until you get
paid. If you have any inquiries about this, you are encouraged to come by my office
on the tenth floor anytime you want. I'll be working at my office until 8 p.m. today.

Hi. Bill. This is Peter from the manufacturing facility. I know that you were at the
plant this morning, and I don't mean to be an inconvenience. However, I was hoping
that you could come back to the plant as soon as you get a chance. There seems to
be a problem with the main assembly line. The conveyer system isn't working
properly, and I was hoping you could come by and take a look at it. Unfortunately.
We can't continue with production until this situation is rectified. As you know, we
have a number of large orders we were hoping to complete before the weekend,
Again. I’m really sorry to bother you.

Good morning. I called this meeting to share opinions about our new growth strategy
with you. As you know, we have experienced a drastic decrease in sales of large cars
in the last 3 years. Although small foreign cars are in high demand in the United
States, full-size cars such as our AX models, have become less popular in the market.
I think it's time to change our future direction. I recommend we develop new
production lines for compact cars as well as hybrid vehicles. In particular, cost-
effective hybrid cars are "strategically" important to us. While the new hybrids are
almost as powerful as normal cars, their fuel efficiency is much better than most
cars. I'm sure they are becoming more popular with consumers. As the president, I
firmly believe that we should start to develop effective hybrids that people want to
drive as soon as possible.
