LISTENING PART 1
You will hear a man who runs a transport hire company talking to a 
woman who wants to hire a vehicle.
Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.
Brian:
Good morning. Island Transport company, this is Brian speaking. 
Jenny:
Morning. This is Jenny Cartwright here. I’m visiting the island next 
week and I want to hire some form of transport.
Brian: 
No problem, Jenny. Island Transport can off er a range of diff erent 
vehicles to hire. So, um, the first option is a motor scooter – they’re very 
popular.
Jenny: 
Oh right. And how much do they cost to hire? 
Brian:
Well, you can hire them by the hour or by the day. Per hour, it’s 
$15.50.
Jenny: 
And what about for a day?
Brian:
Daily, it’s $49.99. That includes a full tank of petrol, but you need 
to fill it up before you bring it back.
Jenny:
Is a scooter a good way to get around the island?
Brian:
Oh yes, it’s a lot of fun. Visitors really enjoy it.
Jenny:
Do you provide helmets?
Brian:
Yes of course, all sizes. We can also let you have gloves as well – it’s 
not a bad idea.
Jenny: 
Oh yes, I hadn’t thought of that.
Brian:
The only thing is with the scooters, you have to keep to sealed 
roads. That means you can’t ride on Battenburg Road – so you can’t visit 
the far end of the island.
Jenny: 
Sorry, I didn’t catch the name of the road. Could you spell it? 
Brian:
Sure, it’s spelt: B-A-T-T-E-N-B-U-R-G. But there are still plenty of 
other places you can explore on a scooter.
Jenny:
OK. And what about a car?
Brian: 
Yes, we’ve got a range of cars.
Jenny:
Well, there’s four of us. But if we do go for the car option, we’d be 
happy with a very small, basic one. 
Brian:
An ‘economy car’ would be $87.80 per day. That’s for a four-door 
car, it can take five passengers.
Jenny:
Right, OK.
Brian:
And a car is the best way to see the whole island. You can drive on 
all the roads. And if you’d like to go for a swim, you can drive right down 
to Green Bay, which visitors love. 
Jenny:
Well, a car is definitely something to consider. It’s certainly a good 
price, if we split it between the four of us.
Brian:
Exactly.
Jenny:
Only thing is, it’s pretty hot at this time of year. Does the car have 
air conditioning?
Brian:
Not that model, no. You’d need one of our bigger cars if you want 
that.
Jenny:
Well, maybe it doesn’t matter.
Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.
Brian:
The other option to consider is an E-Bike. These are very popular – 
like a normal bicycle, but with electric power to help you along. 
Jenny:
How much are they?
Brian: 
Normally they’re $59 per day, but I can off er you a discounted rate 
at the moment of $52.20.
Jenny:
Oh, OK.
Brian:
To be honest, a lot of our customers these days prefer E-Bikes to 
motor scooters, because they’re so quiet and peaceful. On some E-Bikes, 
the battery is really heavy, but on these bikes it’s nice and light.
Jenny:
I’ve never ridden an E-Bike before. How diff icult is it?
Brian:
Not diff icult at all. You’ll find they are very easy to handle. Like 
I say, just like a normal pedal bike really, but you don’t have to do too 
much work. Which is a good thing because the island is quite hilly. These 
are good quality bikes too. Well made with high quality brakes both front 
and back, so you won’t have any problems.
Jenny:
Well, that does sound like a lot of fun. Do they come with GPS?
Brian:
No, but we can provide you with a map. 
Jenny:
What about a lock?
Brian:
Yup, one of those as well, with each bike, so you can leave it 
securely if you want to.
Jenny:
I think my friends will like the idea of an E-Bike. A good 
compromise.
Brian:
Like I say, they’re very popular these days. And another big 
advantage is that you don’t have to have a licence for this type of vehicle.
Jenny: 
Well, let me discuss it with my friends and I’ll get back to you.
Brian:
No problem. Thanks for your…
