These questions are from this test. Would you like to take a practice test?
Helen Coulter | [July 15,9:54 a.m.] | I hope you are all having a good break. I just heard back from the producer of Timelight this morning, and they would like to extend Kitchen Belle's catering contract for another two years. The studio has renewed the TV series. Shall we keep the same schedule as last year, or would you like to switch times? |
Elaine Painter | [July 15,10:00 a.m.] | That's great news! It will guarantee the business a steady income. I know Henry Lincoln usually does breakfast, but as long as he doesn't have a problem with it, can I take the morning shift instead of lunch this time? |
Graham Fulton | [July 15,10:04 a.m.] | It's fine by him. He's with me now and just told me so, Elaine. He'd actually prefer midday. As for me, I want to stick with the breakfast shift. Will there be any extra evening shoots this year? |
Helen Coulter | [July 15,10:05 a.m.] | So Elaine and Graham can do the 7:30-11:00 shift, and Henry and I will do 11:30-3:30. There will be some evening shifts for extra pay, but none that will end past midnight. In addition, the show will also be filmed outside the studio this season, so we'll have to make adjustments. Anyway, we can discuss that issue when we return from vacation next week. |
Elaine Painter | [July 15,10:07 a.m.] | Will the number of cast and crew be the same? |
Graham Fulton | [July 15,10:07 a.m.] | It sounds like more work than last year. |
Helen Coulter | [July 15,10:08 a.m.] | Yes, Elaine. There will be a total of 88 to feed rather than 67. And Graham, I think it will be more work. But they are paying us more, so I think we can afford to hire a couple of food preparation assistants. |
168. At 10:04 a.m., what does Mr. Fulton most likely mean when he writes, "It's fine by him"?
169. When will Mr. Lincoln start his regular shifts next season?
170. What is implied about Timelight?
171. What will happen next week at Kitchen Belle?
MEMO
To: All advertising department staff
From: Eleanor Danes, director of advertising
As you may know, our department will be divided into two. Starting from the beginning of next month, all staff involved in online advertising will have their own office space located on the second floor, and the division will be called the "online promotions department." — [1] —. Remaining staff will stay in the current space on the third floor, and the division will continue to be called the "advertising department."
On February 27 and 28, movers will be relocating office furniture and equipment. All staff members working in online promotions are asked to clear their desks of all items and put them in the plastic crates that will be provided on Friday, February 26. — [2] —. When you arrive at the office on March 1, signs listing assigned workspaces will be placed by the department's main doors. — [3] —.
The split will also affect the workspace locations of some staff remaining on the third floor. Employees who are members of the teams headed by Timothy Wendell, Sinead Barry, and Gina Jong will be moved to different desks. — [4] —. Please have your belongings packed by February 26 as well.
Thanks for your cooperation.
