🕒 A2 · Part 1

Part 1 checks simple details in everyday talk. Each dialogue mentions more than one time, price or place, and only one answers the question.

## Script

7 speakers · 11 lines

Narrator

Question one. What time does the film start?

Lucy

Shall we meet at the cinema at seven?

Ben

The film starts at seven fifteen, but let's meet at half past six and get something to eat first.

Lucy

Good idea. See you at half past six, then.

Narrator

Question two. How much does the girl pay for the T-shirt?

Assistant

That T-shirt is twelve pounds, but it's ten today because of the sale.

Amy

Great. And can I pay by card?

Assistant

Of course. That's ten pounds, please.

Narrator

Question three. Where is the boy's phone?

Mum

Have you looked in your school bag?

Jack

Yes, and in my jacket. Oh, wait. It's on the kitchen table, next to the fruit bowl.
