LISTENING. You are going to hear a talk between W



Exercise 1

You are going to hear a talk between W. Buckhurst and Peter Wiles. Before you listen to the conversation look at these statements, which you will mark T (True) or F (False) after you have listened to the tape.

1. The gang had been tipped off that a lorry belonging to Andersons would be coming through the way with a valuable load of office furniture.
2. A hi-jacker must have thought Andersons' driver was lying for some reason that he had a load of office desks and filing cabinets.
3. The driver was taken to a farm a long way from the main road and held there for seven weeks before the gang released him. Then he had to walk six miles before he found a policeman.
4. Nobody knows what the robbers did with the lorry and how it became a total wreck.
5. The insurance of the load is very simple and there was no need to inform the insurance brokers when the theft was reported because all goods delivered for Harper & Grant Ltd. within the United Kingdom are covered by a blanket insurance policy.
6. Lloyds underwrote the policy, i.e. Harper & Grant Ltd. are insured with a syndicate of Lloyds underwriters.
7. Someone from a syndicate of Lloyds underwriters will go up to inspect the damaged goods to give an opinion about their value.
8. The main problem in this situation is that Harper & Grant’s insurers seem to think the desks and chairs may not be too badly damaged.
9. William Buckhurstthinks someone from the firm ought to go up and give the managers an opinion of the damage.
10. Peter would like to go up there himself and have a look in spite of the fact that it's miles from a main road, right up in the Moorland Valley. Also there isn’t much to do at the office at the moment and he can go.
