[02:50.84]The other evening,I was at home in my flat and I was feeling really homesick 3.

[02:58.60]I was really missing 4 my girlfriend,Hong Jie.

[03:03.56]She's back home in China

[03:07.51]and China's seven hours ahead of lreland where I'm studying,

[03:13.46]so it was in the middle of the night there.

[03:17.62]But I thought I'd ring her anyway,

[03:22.29]because I just really needed to talk to her and tell her how much I loved her.

[03:29.55]Anyway,I phoned her on my mobile 5 and a woman's voice answered

[03:36.82]she sounded a bit tired-and I but I just started talking.

[03:42.98]'Hi,it's me.Sorry to phone you so late,but I just had to ring you.'

[03:50.43]And then I just went on saying how much I missed her

[03:56.07]and all kinds of other personal stuff 6,

[04:00.61]and then suddenly the woman on the other end of the line said,

[04:05.97]'Who is this?'I was so embarrassed 7 I hung up straightaway.

[04:13.02]When I looked again at the number I had dialled,

[04:17.99]I realised I'd called my mum by mistake.

[04:23.31]I don't know if she recognised my voice,but she never said anything about it!

[04:30.26]It was really.....

[04:34.10]Emilie

[04:37.47]About a year age,I met this guy while I was on holiday.

[04:43.64]He came from the same town as me and seemed quite nice.

[04:49.59]We got on quite well,so we swapped 8 telephone numbers

[04:55.16]and said we would meet up when we weree back in England.

[05:00.12]Anyway,we went out together one night and I didn't have a very good time.

[05:07.77]He was a bit strange with me-quite serious-

[05:13.52]and he obviously 9 wanted to go out with me as his girlfriend.

[05:19.27]The next time he rang,I just made some excuse to say I couldn't meet him.

[05:26.43]The same day he rang again and I told him I was busy.

[05:32.17]He didn't take the hint,though,

[05:36.25]because he kept on ringing me again and again and again.

[05:42.49]I told him I wasn't interested and that he should stop calling me,

[05:48.16]but he took no notice.

[05:51.82]He started ringing and texting me ten of fifteen times a day.

[05:58.87]In the end,I had to change my number.

[06:03.55]It was really....

[06:07.31]Rebecca

[06:11.67]I was on the train going to a meeting and i was trying to do some work.

[06:17.91]There was this guy sitting opposite me

[06:22.17]who spent the whole journey talking really loudly on his mobile.

[06:28.02]They were all really stupid conversations as well.

[06:33.35]I asked him to go and talk somewhere else or talk a bit more quietly,

[06:39.31]but he didn't get any work done and by the end of the journey,

[06:45.08]I was so annoyed 10 I wanted to hit him.It was really.

[06:52.63]Pronunciation

[07:03.68]1 Alan told me to tell you he cant 11 come tonight.

[08:52.90]5 While you listen

[09:03.66]Conversation 1

[09:07.00]What happened to you yesterday?

[09:11.39]I'm really sorry.There were some roadworks and the bus was really slow.

[09:18.24]It took me over an hour to get there.

[09:22.68]Why didn't you ring?I would've waited.

[09:26.94]I tried,but my mobile was deed,because I'd forgotten to recharge it.

[09:33.49]Oh,what a shame.We did wait for about half an hour,

[09:38.77]but we didn't want to miss the beginning of the film,

[09:42.82]so we went without you.

[09:46.06]Yes,I thought that was what you must've done,

[09:50.92]so I just went home again!

[10:14.61]I was stupid.I was just having a coffee in that bar over the road

[10:21.37]and I stupidly left it lying on the table.

[10:26.23]Anyway,a couple of young lads came up to me and started talking really fast,

[10:33.50]and I just said I didn't understand and then they just walked off.

[10:39.27]By the time I noticed the phone had gone,they'd disappeared.

[10:44.52]That's terrible.Are you insured 12?

[10:48.78]Yes,yes.I can replace the phone easily enough,

[10:53.95]but the problem is all the phone numbers I keep in the phone.

[10:58.81]On,no!You don't have them written down anywhere?

[11:04.06]No,I just always put them straight into my mobile.

[11:09.49]I never bother to write them anywhere else.

[11:13.93]What a pain.

[11:16.88]Yes,I don't really know how I can contact some of them.
