A A man is telephoning his local college about a course.
Receptionist: Good morning, City College. Graham: Oh, good morning. I’m phoning about the photography course that you run.
Receptionist: Well, actually, there are three courses. It depends on your level. One course is for beginners, the second is for people with a little experience – we call that the intermediate course – and the third is an advanced course, for people who already know quite a lot about the subject.
Graham: Oh, I see. Well, I’m quite a keen photographer, but at the moment it’s just a hobby. I want to learn more so that I might be able to do some work professionally at some time. I think the intermediate course would be a bit easy for me. Perhaps the advanced course would be best. When does it start?
Receptionist: The advanced course starts on September the eighteenth.

Graham: OK, just let me note that down – the eighteenth of September. And how long does the course run for?
Receptionist: It’s a twelve-week course, but there’s a week off in the middle for half-term. So, you do twelve lessons over thirteen weeks.
Graham: So, what’s the date that the course finishes? Receptionist: It finishes on the fourteenth of December. Graham: The fourteenth – OK. Can you tell me how much the course costs?
Receptionist: Yes, it’s ninety-six pounds. Graham: Ninety-six, that’s not too bad. Receptionist: That’s paid in advance. And I’m afraid there’s no refund if for any reason you can’t complete the course.
Graham: Yes, of course. That’s fair. How many people are there usually in the class? I’ve heard the groups are quite small.
Receptionist: Well, we can’t say for sure, but there are usually between six and ten people in a group. On the last advanced course, there were seven participants.
Graham: Oh, good. That sounds perfect. Can I enrol for the course now – on the phone?
Receptionist: Yes, of course. I’ll take your details now, and you can pay by card now or send us a cheque if you prefer. So, first of all, what’s your name?
Graham: It’s Graham Merton – that’s M-E-R-T-O-N. Receptionist: And your address? Graham: Flat three, a hundred and nine Chelsea Court. That’s in Oxford.
Receptionist: OK, and how old are you? We like to know more or less the age of each group.
Graham: I’m twenty-eight. Receptionist: OK, Graham. We’ll send confirmation and some course information in the post. Now, how would you like to pay?
Graham: I’ll pay with my card now. Receptionist: OK, if you can …
