Test 3 transcript
This is the Cambridge Preliminary English Test number 3. There are four parts to the test.
You will hear each part twice.
For each part of the test, there will be time for you to look through the questions and time
for you to check your answers.
Write your answers on the question paper. You will have six minutes at the end of the test
to copy your answers onto the answer sheet.
The recording will now be stopped. Please ask any questions now because you must not
speak during the test.
[pause]
Now open your question paper and look at Part 1.
There are seven questions in this part. For each question there are three pictures and a
short recording. Choose the correct picture and put a tick in the box below it.
Before we start, here is an example.
What's the time?
Woman: Have you got the time?
Man: Yes, it's twenty past three.
[pause]
The first picture is correct so there is a tick in box A.
Look at the three pictures for Question 1 now.

‘Now we are ready to start. Listen carefully. You will hear each recording twice.‘One. How did the woman get to work today?
Woman: Oh, 'm so sorry I'm late ~ I missed the bus. | was trying to decide whether to
walk or go back and get my bike when I saw my neighbour. Luckily he offered
me a lift, Because he works near here.

Now listen again.

Two. Where does the pollution come from?
Woman: The stream is really dirty by the time it reaches the valley but we've discovered
where the pollution comes from. We already knew that the water was pure in the
‘mountains at the top so we realised the pollution must come from somewhere in
the forest. There is a village above the forest but we tested the water there and it
was fine.
[pause]
Now listen again.
[The recording is repeated}
[pause]
Three. When must the boys get on the coach?
Man: The football match starts at 2.30 but we should get there at half past one. The
coach will pick us up at ten to one as it'll take us about 40 minutes to drive there.
So we'll meet in the school car park. Don't be late, boys, will you!

Now listen again.

Four. What fruit do they take?
Boy: Mum, have we got any fruit to take on the picni
bananas.
Mother: Here are the bananas. Let's take those. Oh ... the oranges have all gone. What
about taking some grapes or apples as well?
Boy: OK, let's take the grapes. That'll be enough.

Girl: Is the book in this bag for Mum, then? | didn’t think she was particularly
interested in flowers.

she never reads it - it's got some lovely photos.
