Diane Davies. Can I help you? GAVIN: Yes, I'd like to get some insurance for the contents of my home. DIANE: Fine. When did you move into the house?
GAVIN: A couple of weeks ago, and it's an apartment actually. I was told by the landlord that it would be a good idea to get some insurance for the furniture and other personal possessions. DIANE: Fine. Well, let's get some details. What kind of apartment is it? GAVIN: It's a two-bedroom apartment. DIANE: What floor is it on? GAVIN: Why do you need to know that? DIANE: Because it affects the cost of the insurance. An apartment on the ground floor isn't as protected as others and there's more chance of a break-in. GAVIN: Really? I didn't know that. It's on the third, no, second floor. DIANE: Second . . . and how much is the rent? GAVIN: It's $615 per month. DIANE: Good, and where is it located? GAVIN: In Biggins Street, South Hills. DIANE: I see. And what things did you want to insure? GAVIN: Well, what do you recommend? DIANE: Well, the most important things are those which you would normally find in a home. Things like the television, fridge and so on. GAVIN: I see. Well, I've got a fridge and a stereo system which I've just bought from a friend. DIANE: And how much did you pay for the fridge? GAVIN: Er, $450. DIANE: 50 or 15? GAVIN: 50 and the stereo system cost $1,150. DIANE: Have you got a television? GAVIN: Yes, but it's very old and not worth much. DIANE: OK. Well, is there anything else you want to insure? GAVIN: Yes, I've got a couple of watches and my CDs and books. DIANE: How much do you think they're worth? GAVIN: The watches are worth $1,000 ... DIANE: For both of them? GAVIN: No, each one and, all together, the CDs and books cost me about $400. DIANE: OK, so the value of everything you want to insure is $4,000. GAVIN: How much will the insurance cost? DIANE: Let me see, $4,000 divided by ... plus 10% ... right, so this kind of insurance, er, that's Private Contents insurance, it comes to $184 for a twelve-month period. GAVIN: $184. Well, that sounds pretty good. OK, I'll take that policy. GAVIN: Can I arrange the policy over the phone?
DIANE: Sure, just let me get the details down. So that's Mr ... GAVIN: Gavin Murray, that's M-U-R-R-A-Y. DIANE: And the address is? GAVIN: It’s 16C Biggins Street, South Hills. DIANE: OK (writing) 16C Biggins Street, South Hills? GAVIN: That's right, it's two words, 'South Hills'. DIANE: And your date of birth is? GAVIN: 12 of November 1980. DIANE: And your contact number? GAVIN: Home phone number is 9872 4855. DIANE: Right... and er, ... you're Australian? GAVIN: No ... I was born in London, although my mother is from Tasmania. DIANE: Really? Whereabouts? GAVIN: Hobart. DIANE: I see! ... interesting place. Now, are you working at the moment? GAVIN: No, I'm a full-time student at Sydney University. DIANE: Right, ah, good. Part 2.

MAN: On Music World this week, the violinist Ella Subyotto is here to talk about her life as a young musician. Welcome to the studio Ella. ELLA: Thank you. MAN: Now, you're only 17, but you've already won the young musician of the year competition. ELLA: Yes, I'm quite proud of that. But I have worked hard for it. I started playing when I was five, and I've practiced every day since then. When I was nine, I led an orchestra for the first time. And then last year, when I was 16, I came first in young musician of the year. MAN: Who persuades you to spend so much time practicing? ELLA: My friends think I'm mad. They usually try to get me to do other things. My teacher, of course, thinks it's very important to practice and is always encouraging me to do more. My parents are good. They support me, but don't tell me what to do. MAN: Is there anything else you do to improve your playing? ELLA: I sometimes go to the gym, but I have to be careful not to do too much exercise. If I get tired, I can't play very well. I should eat well, but I'm afraid I like fried food and chocolate too much. The main thing is that I don't get too stressed. I have to feel relaxed when I play. MAN: Do you think classical music has helped you through some difficult teenage years? ELLA: Probably. I think it's a shame that most teenagers don't give classical music a chance. I don't expect everyone to learn to play classical music or even buy classical CDs. I just wish they didn't have such a negative attitude towards it. MAN: And what about your free time? What do you like doing? ELLA: I sometimes go out shopping with friends, or we go to the cinema to see a film. But I suppose the thing I like best is just relaxing at home, reading a book. I perform in concerts quite a bit, and that can be stressful, so I need quiet time when I can be alone. MAN: If you stop performing, what other career would you like to have? ELLA: When I was younger, I thought about becoming a doctor, like my mother, but I've realised it's not for me. If I give up performing, I'll go to university to study law. I know there's been some talk in the newspapers about me becoming a model, but I can tell you that that isn't true. MAN: Well, thank you for coming here today and telling us something about it. Part 3. Listen and decide whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F). Write your answers in the numbered boxes. Information T F
