[00:00.00]Unit 9  Computers

[00:04.10]3.While you listen

[00:10.58]Recommending a website

[00:14.94]You are going to listen to a conversation between two friends who meet in the street.

[00:22.02]Are you booking your summer holiday already.then?

[00:29.15]Oh.hello.Simon.I didn’t see you there.

[00:33.99]No.no.It’s Karen’s birthday in a few weeks’ time and I was thinking of taking her away

[00:41.22]somewhere for the weekend.

[00:44.98]There’s not much on offer,though.

[00:49.42]Well,have you got access to the Internet?

[00:54.10]Yeah,well.we’re connected at work.Right.Well.why don’t you try that?

[01:01.15]You can sometimes get some really good last-minute deals online.

[01:07.21]To be honest.I’ve never really had much luck buying things on the Internet.

[01:14.29]The other day,I tried to book some train tickets on Ticketline.com.but it was just so complicated 2.

[01:23.15]It took so long!In the end.I just gave up and did it over the phone.

[01:29.91]Yes,I know what you mean.That site’s not very user-friendly.

[01:36.47]Have you tried any of the cheap airline sites,though?

[01:41.51]No.never.Well.If I were you.I’d try some of them.

[01:48.07]I’ve booked lots of flights online and it’s always been really easy.

[01:54.55]I’ve never had any problems and it’s usually cheaper than going to a travel agent’s.

[02:01.31]You usually get a discount for online booking.

[02:06.17]So.which ones are the best?

[02:10.72]Well,it depends where you want to go.You could try British Airways 3 first.

[02:17.59]They’re sometimes just as cheap as the budget airlines.

[02:22.73]Their address is BA.com.And the other one I’ve used quite a lot is easyjet.com.

[02:32.89]but they don’t fly to as many places as BA.

[02:37.86]Right.that sounds much better than standing 4 here in the pouring rain.Thanks.

[02:45.72]Well.if you want ay more help,why don’t you e-mail me.

[02:51.18]It’s spencersimon@shotmail.com.

[02:57.45]thanks,Hey.while we’re talking about it,actually,

[03:03.98]do you know any good sites for buying CDs?When Karen and I first met.

[03:11.82]there was a song called You’ve been gone too long playing in the bar

[03:18.45]and I thought it would be really nice to try to get it for her birthday.

[03:24.49]Very romantic 5!Yeah.well,I do my best.The only problem is I’m not sure

[03:32.32]who it’s by and I’ve never seen it in any record shop.

[03:37.36]I’m not sure.You could try looking at dustygroove.com.

[03:44.63]My brother’s always talking about them.Otherwise,If I were you.

[03:50.58]I’d go to one of those music chat sites and see if anyone there can help you.

[03:57.11]Right OK.

[04:01.35]E-mails and website addresses

[04:09.76]Listen to these e-mail and website addresses and repeat.

[04:15.61]1.bill.macdonald@amac.com

[04:31.67]2.www.soccernet.com

[07:11.80]Why don’t you try the Internet?

[07:16.27]Have you tried any of the cheap airline sites?

[07:21.42]You could try British Airways first.

[07:27.69]If I were you,I’d try some of them.

[07:32.05]5. Speaking

[07:38.81]1.A British bank advertised 6 a new credit 7 card on their website.

[07:49.76]They offered an interest rate of 0.5%

[07:55.82]for six months to customers who changed to their card.

[08:01.59]It should  have been 10.5%,

[08:07.16]but the programmer missed out the number 1

[08:12.12]Nobody in the bank noticed the mistake for two weeks.

[08:18.18]The mistake cost the bank over&100,000!

[08:24.35]2.A customer called the helpline

[08:30.59]to say she couldn’t get her new computer to switch 8 on.

[08:36.02]The technician 9 asked her what happened when she pushed the power button.

[08:42.19]The woman told him that she pushed and pushed on the foot pedal 10 and nothing happened.

[08:49.63]She had put the mouse on the floor.thinking it was the foot pedal!

[08:55.88]3.A computer engineer was invited to a friend’s party,

[09:03.71]but it turned out to be a real disaster!

[09:08.36]The friend had just bought a new PC.

[09:13.53]but she couldn’t get music CDs to play in the CD-ROM drive.

[09:19.70]She said she was going to send it back.

[09:24.24]The engineer thought he knew what was wrong.

[09:29.31]and said it would only take him a couple of minutes to fix it.

[09:34.64]He removed the outside case,connected up the sound card.put in a CD and it played.

[09:43.29]Everyone at the party cheered!The engineer felt great.

[09:49.45]He then forgot to switch it off.

[09:53.82]As he was putting the case back on,the meal of the case touched something live.

[10:00.48]There was a flash.a smell of burnning,

[10:05.05]and he knew he had just ruined the whole thing.It cost him hundreds of pounds.

[10:12.70]He lost a friend and his professional 11 reputation 12!
