 Students listen to a systems administrator 

asking a technician about the status of the 

company’s computer systems. On this first 

listening, in order to build confidence with it, 

students are asked just two questions.  

No, it isn’t. There are several departments.

On this second listening, students complete a 

table listing tasks, some of which appeared in 

Activity 1. The table has columns to be ticked to 

indicate whether the task worked fine, a 

problem was found or whether it was not 

mentioned. Students are also asked whether 

there were any big problems. Before listening, 

give them time to read the table. They can check 

their answers by looking at the audio script on 

page 75.
