W: Yes, that's marked down here, 10 per cent service. M: Good. Thank you. Now, can you take my credit card? W: I'm afraid we don't accept credit cards.

Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation. W: Could I see the Manager, please? I have a complaint. M: Can I help you, madam?
W: Yes. Did you have this room checked before I moved in? There's no lavatory paper and the toilet doesn't flush properly, the water doesn't run away in the shower and I would like an extra pillow. What do you have to say to that?
M: I'm extremely sorry to hear that. I'll attend to it right away. The housekeeper
usually checks every room before new guests move in. We have been extremely busy with a large conference.
W: That's no way to run a hotel. One doesn't expect this sort of thing in a well-run hotel.
M: No, madam. I do apologize. It's most unusual. We do try to check the rooms as thoroughly as possible. Just the one pillow, was it? Is there anything else?
W: Well, your air-conditioning doesn't seem to be working too well. It's as hot as hell up there.
M: I'll just adjust the regulator for you and I think you'll find it a little cooler in a short time. I'll also send someone along right away to look at the toilet and shower.

Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once.

Question 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
The spaceship flew around the new planet several times. The planet was blue and green. They couldn't see the surface of the planet because there were too many white clouds. The spaceship descended slowly through the clouds and landed in the middle of a green forest. The two astronauts put on their space suits, opened the door, climbed carefully down the ladder, and stepped onto the planet.
The woman looked at a small control unit on her arm. 'It's all right,' she said to the man. 'We can breathe the air ... it's a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen.' Both of them took off their helmets and breathed deeply.
They looked at everything carefully. All the plants and animals looked new and strange. They could not find any intelligent life.
After several hours, they returned to their spaceship. Everything looked normal. The man switched on the controls, but nothing happened. 'Something's wrong,' he said. 'I don't understand ... the engines aren't working.' He switched on the computer, but that didn't work either. 'Eve,' he said, 'we're stuck here ... we can't take off!' 'Don't worry, Adam,' she replied. 'They'll rescue us soon.' 11. What was the planet like?(A)
