It’s been the worst day of my life. Everything went wrong from the start. First I woke up late because I 1) had set my alarm clock for 7 p.m. instead of 7 a.m. When I ran out of the house, it 2) was raining hard and I 3) didntaskt have an umbrella. I finally arrived at the office, very wet and thirty minutes late. My boss 4) was standing by my desk. ‘What 5) have you been doing, Smith? Swimming?’ he said. I apologised and sat down. Things went from bad to worse. First I 6) broke the photocopier and then came back late from lunch because I got lost.. ‘We 7) aren’t doing very well, are we, Smith?’ said my boss. Then I crashed the office computer system. That was it My boss 8) appeared and said, ‘You 9) haven’t made a very good start, Smith. I 10) don’t think this is the right place for you.’ That was the end of my first, day in my first, job. Back to die Job Centre tomorrow.

Jane: Milk, Kate?
Kate: Just a bit... Thanks, Jane.
Jane: So what do you think of the new guy in accounts?
Kate: Who - the cute blond?
Jane: Right - straight from a bottle!
Kate: No, I think it might be his natural colour.
Jane: Really? So you’ve had a good look at him then!?
Kate: Well, he’s not bad looking, is he?
Jane: No - but that hairstyletasks a bit much.
Kate: Maybe he just wanted a new ‘look’ for his new job. Actually he’s quite nice ...
Jane: How do you know? Have you spoken to him?
Kate: Well, he was having problems with the photocopier yesterday, so I showed him how it worked and...
Jane: And what did he say?
Kate: Not much. He introduced himself - his name’s Colin ... You know, office chat.
Jane: So did he ask you out?
Kate: Jane! Of course not! He seemed quite reserved. But it’s his first job, so he’s probably feeling a bit lost...
Jane: Maybe. He looks quite fit though - the sporty type.
Kate: Yes, I’ve seen him with a gym bag. Expect he works out on the way home.
Jane: Pity about the suits though.
Kate: Don’t you like them?
Jane: Well, they’re very smart and all that - but theytaskre a bit too trendy for my taste. He looks a bit too self-conscious - you know, as if hetasks not very comfortable in them.
Kate: So you don’t fancy him then?
Jane: No, Kate - hetasks all yours! I wouldn’t go out with him if you paid me.
Two
Jack: Yeah, Dave - fantastic match, wasn’t it? Talking of football, have you seen Colin recently?
Dave: Yes, and had the shock of my life!
Jack: I know - I’ve never seen anybody change so much. It’s a bit drastic, isntaskt it?
Dave: A bit?! Itaskve been playing football with him for five years, Jack - and I didn’t even recognise him when I saw him a couple of weeks ago.
Jack: Yeah - same here. He looks great though, dontaskt you think?
Dave: What the smart suits and the blond hair? Thinks he’s an upmarket young professional now, does he?
Jack: Mmm, I suppose the tasklooktask is a bit over the top -but no, what I meant was that he looks much fitter now. I’ve seen him working out at the gym. He needed to though - he was getting to look sloppy, putting on weight, you know.
Dave: True. But still, I think he’s gone too far with this ‘makeover’ business. What was wrong with the way he looked before? Who’s he trying to impress?
Jack: I know what you mean, but I heard he couldn’t get a job for ages after we all left college - so maybe that’s the reason. I don’t know - I haven’t talked to him for ages.
Dave: Exactly - that’s my point! He doesn’t even get in touch with us any more. Aren’t we good enough for him or what?
Jack: I don’t know. But look, he is an old mate after all. Why don’t we give him a call? Meet him for a coffee or something? Maybe he thinks wetaskre all laughing behind his back?
Dave: What, Colin? I doubt it - he was never short on confidence before.
Jack: Well anyway, I’ll call him.
Dave: OK, suit yourself ... but he wontaskt come. He’s changed, you wait.
8 T060 Listen to a conversation between Colin and his friends, Jack and Dave. Correct five facts in the summary and complete the last sentence.
After Dave had called him, Colin met his two old friends and explained why he’d changed his look. He’d been for a job interview the week before, and later, had heard the three interviewers talking about him in a cafe. One of the women was criticising his hairstyle. But that wasntaskt what made him change his appearance.
It was because ...
Текст аудирования:
Colin: Thanks for calling me, Jack. Sorry to be so out of touch - you know, things have been a bit difficult recently ...
Dave: Right - so what’s been going on then, Colin? What’s all this with the ‘makeover’?
Colin: So you dontaskt like my new look then? Well, every man to his taste, they say.
Dave: Mmm, maybe ...
Jack: So why did you do it, Colin? Was it because you couldn’t get a job?
Colin: Well, that started it, I suppose ... I was having a coffee near the place where I had a job interview about a month ago, and the two guys who interviewed me came in. They didntaskt see me - but I heard one of them say, ‘I can’t stand it when they dontaskt try to make a good impression. Did you see that old leather jacket he was wearing?’ Well, I knew they were talking about me, but thought, well, they’re just boring old businessmen and forgot about it.
Dave: Right - who needs a suit anyway?!
Jack: So what was the reason then, Colin? Come on ...
Colin: No, it was all very silly really - you’ll laugh. Jack: No, we won’t. Promise. Dave ...
Dave: OK, OK.
Colin: Right - well, what happened was. I was in the supermarket, you know, standing in a queue at the checkout - and suddenly I looked up at the CCTV monitor on the wall. I noticed this scruffy looking guy standing there - I couldn’t see his face, but I thought, ‘What a loser. Nobody would give him a job. Why doesn’t he smarten himself up a bit - get a haircut, buy some new clothes?’ That sort of thing. Then as I moved along in the queue, I saw the guy move too -and suddenly realised it was me!
Jack: Oh, ha-ha... really!?
Dave: Oh, no way!
Colin: I don’t know - maybe what the interviewer said had affected me on a subconscious level. Anyway, that’s when I decided to do something about the way I looked.
Jack: And you got a job!
Colin: Yes, I did actually. Just what I wanted in fact...
Dave: So what is this new job then, Colin?
