Conversation Two.

Questions 5 to 8.

Look at the notes below.

You will hear two colleagues discussing an additional location for their business.

You have 15 seconds to read through the notes.

[pause]

Now listen, and fill in the spaces.

[pause]

Woman: Hello, Mike, have you got a moment?

Man: Sure, what is it? The location?

Woman: Yes, we can’t put it off any longer.

Man: Hm, especially as we chose the site for the new warehouse last night. We need to get organised.

Woman: Exactly. We need a decision today. Where should the discount shop be, then?

Man: Well, not too close to our existing branches, that’s for sure. I think it’d better be in the out- of-town retail centre.

Woman: I know that’s easier for customers, but the business park, which is the other out-of- town site, would be better for deliveries, which is important.

Man: But the trend is towards more and more people using the retail centre, isn’t it?

Woman: Well, the survey we did shows people will visit the business park if we open there.

Man: Really? I wasn’t expecting that. Is it because we produce specialist goods? Does that make a difference?

Woman: Yes.

Man: Are there any local grants available?

Woman: Not as such, but there are tax benefits if we take on premises in the business park.

Man: Right. That’s settled, then. How about...

[pause]

Now listen to the recording again.
