Good evening, my name is Joseph Bryant. I will provide relevant information about the welcoming party for new students. I must apologise for a few inaccuracies in the invitation letter. Unfortunately, we did not have time to print new materials, so I will need you all to make your own changes. First of all, there is going to be a talent show and then a welcoming dinner. The address provided is still correct; it is in the main hall. The talent show is going to be held on Thursday evening, starting at 6 pm, which is a fun way for you to showcase your talents and meet other people. You are more than welcome to bring friends, but all of you must carry your ID cards. At 8 pm, we will have dinner in the canteen. You are welcome to bring some snacks and drinks, but alcohol is not allowed. And some of the senior students will be giving free talks during dinner on the stage. If you have any questions regarding your studies and lives, please feel free to talk with them afterwards. I sincerely hope all of you can join us for the festivities. It will be a great way to become acquainted with the town and the school. The party will be over by 10 pm. As a result, we will be extending the time of our bus service. You may take the bus back from 9 pm. The buses will leave every half hour and the last bus departs at 10.30 pm. If possible, please let us know by this Wednesday night if you will be attending.

W: Good morning. I'm here to purchase a student discount card, please.
M: Of course, Madam. Which type would you like? We have cards valid for one month, six months, or one year.
W: What are the different benefits and prices?
M: If you purchase a one-year card, you will get a 25% discount when you buy food, stationery, books and anything else on campus. Also, you will receive a free gift. It only costs 50 pounds.
W: How about a six-month card?
M: If you buy it, you can get a 15% discount in the cafe, bookstore and gym. But if you buy something in the gift shop, no discount is given. It costs 35 pounds.
W: What if I just buy a one-month card?
M: Actually I don't recommend that, because you only get a 5% discount when you make purchases in the convenience store. And you need to spend 10 pounds.
W: I think a six-month card is enough for me.
M: Perfect. I just need to make a few inquiries.
W: Yes. Of course.
M: What is your telephone number?
W: I just moved to this city two weeks ago and I haven't arranged a local phone number yet. I actually only have my New Zealand number, which is 021-6667-9354.
M: Yes, I see that is a New Zealand number, but not a problem. May I see your university card please?
W: Yes, here it is.
M: Mary Watson. Good. And your address please?
W: 15 Woodland Avenue.
M: Is Woodland one word or two?
W: Just one.
M: OK. It will take us about a week to make your personal card. We will contact you when it is finished.
W: Thanks. You've been very helpful.
M: My pleasure.
