## 题目原文

00:00:00,520 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions one to five. 
 00:00:07,680 
 Hello, Clarence House. 
 00:00:09,720 
 Oh, hello. Um, I'm getting married next year, and I understand you're licensed to hold weddings at the hotel. 
 00:00:17,640 
 Yes, we are. Can I ask what date you were thinking of? 
 00:00:21,780 
 Either the first or the seventh of June. 
 00:00:25,920 
 Right. Let me see. 
 00:00:29,200 
 Oh, I'm afraid we already have a booking for the seventh, but we still have availability on June the first. 
 00:00:36,800 
 That would be fine. 
 00:00:38,480 
 Uh, so how many guests are you going to be inviting? 
 00:00:41,940 
 About eighty. 
 00:00:43,580 
 So for that number, we'd recommend the Oxford Suite. I don't know if you've been to the hotel. 
 00:00:50,330 
 Yes. In fact, I went to a wedding there a few years ago, and I was really impressed. 
 00:00:56,500 
 Very good. 
 00:00:57,560 
 I think we were in the Oxford Suite then. Um, the room where we were eating had big windows with really good views. You could see right across the city. 
 00:01:08,650 
 That's it. And you'd have exclusive access to the garden. It'll be at its best in June. 
 00:01:15,420 
 So we could have the photos there? 
 00:01:17,680 
 Sure. In fact, you can even have the ceremony there if you want. It makes a lovely background. 
 00:01:24,420 
 Oh, I hadn't thought of that. Yes, that's certainly an idea. 
 00:01:29,830 
 And is there somewhere for dancing? 
 00:01:32,480 
 Yes, there's plenty of space in the middle of the dining room. 
 00:01:36,580 
 Oh, yeah, I remember now. 
 00:01:39,160 
 So just to give you an idea, would you like me to tell you about our special wedding package? 
 00:01:45,380 
 Sure. 
 00:01:46,380 
 Right. So for eighty guests, you'd have the exclusive use of the Oxford Suite, as I said, and then a meal. So that would be in the dining room, and that would be a sit-down meal with three courses. 
 00:02:00,460 
 And how is the room arranged? I seem to remember you have round tables. 
 00:02:05,740 
 That's right. Most people prefer them to long tables. 
 00:02:09,440 
 Long tables aren't really very friendly, are they? [laughs] And what about decorations on the tables? 
 00:02:16,120 
 They're included in the package, and we have white linen tablecloths and white chair covers. And we also include an individually designed menu specially printed for you. It's something that people can take away to remember the occasion. That's something we've just started doing this year. 
 00:02:34,760 
 Oh, right. 
 00:02:39,240 
 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions six to ten. 
 00:03:10,700 
 Now listen and answer questions six to ten. 
 00:03:17,540 
 And then towards the end of the evening, when everyone's beginning to run out of energy, we bring in a buffet. Nothing too complicated, just a selection of sandwiches together with tea or coffee. That's always very popular. 
 00:03:33,560 
 Right. And we'll want some music. Is that included in the package? 
 00:03:38,460 
 No, but we could probably get you a DJ, or we know of a very good band if you'd prefer that. 
 00:03:46,120 
 Yes, that'd be better, actually. Something to get everyone on their feet. Good. So apart from the music, you said that's an all-inclusive package. So how much does that package come to? 
 00:04:01,440 
 5995 pounds. 
 00:04:06,100 
 That's a bit more than the package they quoted for me at the Stanley Hotel. Theirs was 4500 pounds. 
 00:04:13,500 
 Yes, but I think if you look at what you're getting for the money, you'll find we're the best value. And it is a big day after all. 
 00:04:22,800 
 Yes, you're probably right. 
 00:04:25,620 
 Oh, and I nearly forgot. I'm looking for someone who can make me a really special cake. Can you suggest one? 
 00:04:33,340 
 Certainly. There's a new company that we've started using. They're very good. In fact, our wedding coordinator will be able to give you all sorts of advice. We can offer you a free consultation and a tour of the venue. 
 00:04:48,080 
 Yes, well, I'd definitely be interested. 
 00:04:51,520 
 Right. Well, the coordinator's name is Sarah Izard. That's I-Z-A-R-D. 
 00:05:01,020 
 Now, when would you like to meet her? She's available from 9 to 5 most weekdays or later, if that's more convenient. 
 00:05:11,320 
 Uh, I'm free on the 12th of October in the morning sometime, or the 15th of October. 
 00:05:19,960 
 That would be better, thanks. Should we say 11:30? 
 00:05:24,460 
 Fine. 
 00:05:25,460 
 And can I just take your name and a contact number? 
 00:05:28,940 
 Sure. It's Debbie. 
 00:05:34,140 
 That is the end of part one. You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
