## 题目原文

00:00:00,380 
 Part one. You will hear a man speaking on the phone to a sales assistant at a toy company. 
 00:00:07,480 
 First, you have some time to look at questions one to six. 
 00:00:41,300 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions one to six. 
 00:00:48,460 
 Hello, Ramona Toys. You're through to Tracy. How can I help you? 
 00:00:53,400 
 Good morning. I want to buy birthday presents for my sister's children. She's very keen on educational toys. Do you sell that sort of thing? 
 00:01:03,420 
 Yes. Actually, we specialize in those types of toys. How old are the children? 
 00:01:09,860 
 Well, Peter, he's the oldest. He's going to be nine next week. 
 00:01:15,660 
 Did you have anything particular in mind for him? 
 00:01:19,380 
 I got him a jigsaw last year, but I'd like to get him something a bit more challenging this time. Perhaps something he could make himself. 
 00:01:28,280 
 How about a model truck? Might that be any good? It's made of wood. It comes in a kit, so you get all the pieces, and then there are the electrical components. 
 00:01:41,680 
 Oh, it's not just mechanical then? 
 00:01:44,380 
 Oh, no, it's quite sophisticated. It's recommended for children over eight, and you also get a sheet of stickers to decorate it. 
 00:01:54,740 
 That sounds just up his street, and I'm sure it'd help him to understand technology, even if it's only basic. 
 00:02:02,040 
 Well, yes, and it is a change from the chemistry sets we used to get. 
 00:02:07,700 
 Oh, you had one of those, too, did you? 
 00:02:11,320 
 Um, what about price? 
 00:02:14,120 
 It's 17.50 pound. 
 00:02:17,120 
 Hmm, it's not too expensive then. I could get him something else as well. He's always been interested in animals. 
 00:02:24,500 
 How about a book about jungle animals? 
 00:02:27,320 
 Mm, I think he's already got one. 
 00:02:30,280 
 Okay. Well, how about a bird feeder instead? That's a kit as well. You even get some paint and a brush, so you can decorate it how you like. 
 00:02:40,720 
 Well, that sounds just the thing, and it'd give him contact with wildlife. 
 00:02:46,040 
 Oh, I've just noticed something else in its favor. It's only 8.99 now. It's been reduced from 14.50. 
 00:02:55,360 
 Even better. I'm sure my nephew would like both those things. Now, I've also got to find something for Natalie. That's his sister. She's going to be six soon. 
 00:03:07,220 
 Hmm. 
 00:03:08,760 
 Well, one item that we've just added to our catalog is a chocolate pack. 
 00:03:14,500 
 Hmm, that doesn't sound very educational. Don't you just eat it? 
 00:03:18,700 
 [laughs] Not straight away. It's a kit for making individual chocolates. You heat the chocolate and pour it into special molds. They're provided as well, and you also get some little boxes to put the chocolates in once you've made them. 
 00:03:36,000 
 Oh, I see. I suppose it helps to develop artistic skills then. 
 00:03:40,740 
 Yes, and it says here that it helps children to understand how temperature can affect things. Hmm, seeing chocolate melt and solidify, I suppose. It's just six pounds. 
 00:03:55,660 
 Okay, that's great. Thank you for all your suggestions. 
 00:04:02,920 
 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions seven to ten. 
 00:04:28,560 
 Now listen and answer questions seven to ten. 
 00:04:35,120 
 Can I just ask you about ordering? 
 00:04:37,820 
 Well, you can order by phone if you like, or we have a website. 
 00:04:42,540 
 Oh, can you give me the web address, please? 
 00:04:45,360 
 Of course. It's very simple. It's just www.rimona.com. 
 00:04:53,860 
 How do you spell that? Is it R-E-M-O-N-A? 
 00:05:00,000 
 It's R-I-M at the beginning. 
 00:05:03,400 
 Ah, okay. 
 00:05:04,760 
 And then if you already know what you want, you could just do a search. 
 00:05:09,520 
 Okay. 
 00:05:10,440 
 Oh, and I've just seen here, if you order the things before Friday, you don't have to pay for postage. There's a special offer on at the moment. 
 00:05:20,680 
 Oh, good. And I'd probably get the presents sent straight to them. So can I get them wrapped? 
 00:05:27,460 
 You can. Uh, click on packaging options, and you just select gift by ticking one of the boxes. Then it'll be wrapped specially. 
 00:05:38,440 
 Okay. But how will they know who the things are from? Will I be able to send a message? 
 00:05:44,740 
 Yes, you can. That option's on the same menu. 
 00:05:48,540 
 Okay. Well, thanks very much. I'm sure they're going to love all their... 
 00:05:56,080 
 That is the end of part one. You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
