LISTENING. You are going to hear a talk between Ian Hampden and Peter Wiles



Exercise 1

You are going to hear a talk between Ian Hampden and Peter Wiles. Before you listen to the conversation look at these statements. After you have listened to the tape determine whether these statements are true (T) or false (F). Explain why.

1. Bob Hardiman's been with the firm since it started, and he's the only real craftsman they've got.
2. Ian Hampden disagrees with H.G. that there's no call for elaborate hand-carving on desks those days; he is sure they need hand-carved desks.
3. Peter assumes that the only chance to save the old man from redundancy may occur at the Pension Fund Trustees' Meeting, because his name's bound to come up if he's being dismissed; his pension will have to be approved.
4. Ian doubts that Bob Hardiman can be saved from redundancy because the two of them are against H.G., Ambrose Harper and Mr. Buckhurst, company secretary.
5. Ambrose Harper has a very soft heart and the pension scheme itself was his idea. He will agree with H.G. and Mr. Buckhurst when he comes to the Pension Fund Meeting.
6. Hardiman left the firm for a while about two years ago because he had to look after his father. He came back to Harper & Grant Ltd. five months ago, when his father died.
7. He left all the contributions he had paid into the pension fund in the fund and still qualifies for a pension.
8. There is nothing to worry about because Bob Hardiman is entitled to the full pension according to the articles of the pension fund.
