 Now turn to section two on page three. 
 00:00:09,320 
 Part two. 
 00:00:11,160 
 You will hear the owner of a strawberry farm talking to a group of new employees. 
 00:00:17,900 
 First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to fourteen. 
 00:00:52,100 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to fourteen. 
 00:00:59,560 
 Hello, my name's Peter Blakewell, and I'm the owner of the strawberry farm. All of you are starting work here next week, so I thought it'd be helpful if I explained a bit about the farm and what you'll be doing. 
 00:01:12,280 
 Well, the farm operates all year round, but summer is when we open to the public and people come here to pick their own strawberries as a family activity. It's also our busiest period, which is why we need you for the next few months. 
 00:01:28,120 
 Well, first up, what do you need to bring for a long day? You'll be working outside a lot, so fill up your water bottles at home and have them with you at all times. You'll come in for lunch around one o'clock. We'll be putting sandwiches out for you, and there's also short morning and afternoon breaks. Gloves should be worn at all times. You'll find them in the packing shed. Just make sure they get returned, please. Now, if for some reason you can't come into work, there's a procedure to follow. There's no point phoning the office. By the time someone picks up your message, it'll be too late to find a replacement. You need to get hold of the duty manager. Phone and speak to him directly, and he'll let your team leader know you're going to be off. 
 00:02:16,540 
 But before I forget, last year, we had a problem with customers getting to the checkouts and not realizing how much they have to pay per kilo for the strawberries. But we've got signs with price lists all around the farm this year, so that's been dealt with. One annoying thing is people taking baskets out of the shop and leaving them in the car park or worse, taking them home. They're expensive to replace, so please keep an eye on them. If you're in the fields, no doubt you'll see people popping a couple of strawberries into their mouths, but we don't need to worry about this too much. 
 00:02:53,320 
 I should mention the benefits of working here. For a start, you get to take home a good size carton of strawberries at no charge. Your family members can also get fifteen percent off the fruit they pick. Discounts don't apply to the gift shop, I'm afraid. 
 00:03:11,160 
 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions fifteen to twenty. 
 00:03:21,740 
 Now listen and answer questions fifteen to twenty. 
 00:03:54,760 
 All right. Let's look at the map you all have to give you an idea of the farm's layout. We'll start with the staff room. See the main building, the entrance is at the bottom of your map. Well, above the main building on the map is a row of three smaller buildings. The staff room is the middle one. If you need to go to administration, that's easy to find. In the main building, you've got the three checkout desks in the bottom right-hand corner and the cafe in the top corner. In the other large inside area is the shop. So administration is the other room there. It's in the top left-hand corner. 
 00:04:35,580 
 Um, some of you are working in the packing shed. You see where the main building is, and then at the top of the map, there are the round water tanks, four of them. The packing shed is the bigger of the two buildings directly below the tanks on your map. Not easy work, but at least you'll be in the shade. 
 00:04:56,700 
 If you're driving to work, you'll need to know where the staff car park is. So that's to the left of the main building, the area nearest the bottom of the map. Park there, and then either use the front entrance or that little door on the left of the main building. 
 00:05:12,820 
 Right. Let's talk about where the customers can and can't pick their own strawberries. 
 00:05:18,890 
 They're not allowed to enter the commercial growing areas, and you can see area one already marked on your map. That means there are two sections where customers are allowed to pick their own fruit. The section with strawberries that are ready to pick now, the ripe strawberries, that's the L-shaped section right at the top of the map on the left. 
 00:05:40,230 
 The unripe strawberries will be ready in about three weeks. So that section, it's above commercial growing area one, and you can see it from the cafe. Okay. So does anyone have any questions about... 
 00:05:56,520 
That is the end of part two. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part two.
