Übung 1
Trey asks if the caller is calling from .
Trey asks if the caller is calling from a mobile phone.
a mobile phone: Trey asks if the caller is calling from a "cell phone". The terms "mobile phone" and "cell phone" are synonymous, although "cell phone" is used mainly in the US. A "cell" is also the smallest structural unit of an organism that is capable of independent functioning!
a small room: A "cell" can refer to a secure, confined room, which might be found in a police station or prison. This is not what Trey is referring to when he asks about the caller's cell phone.
a land line: A "land line" is a telephone line which travels over terrestrial circuits or travels over the ground. They are also called "fixed lines". Cell phones use receivers that send signals through the air, as opposed "land lines" which use circuits on the ground.
South Africa: The Republic of South Africa is a country located at the southern tip of the African continent. Neither the caller not Trey mentions South Africa in this conversation.
the seventy-sixth floor: The caller asks to be connected to "extension 1764". There is no mention of floor number 76. An extension is a short number, generally used in organizations with multiple departments, used to identify an individual or a department.

Now help Icarus write a "post-it" note for Brian!
05/12 - 2:56pm Charlie phoned for you.
He will be in SF on Monday the 17th 1.

05/12 - 2:56pm Charlie phoned for you.
He will be in SF on Monday the 17th 1.
Wants to meet and talk about the past 2 with you.
Call him on his cell phone 3.
1 Monday the 17th: This is the right choice. Charlie says he is available on "Monday the 17th". Icarus correctly notes this date on his "post-it" note. Icarus could have also written "Monday 17 (November)" or "Monday 17th (November)".
1 Monday the 7th: Right day but wrong date, I'm afraid! Be careful to listen out for the "teenth" after the seven!
1 Tuesday the 17th: Right date but wrong day, I'm afraid!
1 Monday the 19th: Right day but wrong date, I'm afraid!
2 talk about the past: This is correct. Charlie says that he wants to meet up with Brian and talk about "old times". This means Charlie wants to remember and discuss shared experiences in a nostalgic way. We often call this "reminiscing". For example: "Charlie and Brian reminisced about the good times they spent together as hostages in the middle east".
2 talk about business: This is incorrect. The expression "to talk about old times" is unrelated to business. It is extremely unlikely that "discussing old times" has any business connotation whatsoever. In fact Charlie refers to Brian with an informal "nickname" (Jonesy) which suggests that the intended meeting is of a personal nature.
2 talk about a specific incident: This is incorrect. "Talking about old times" indicates no specific topic of conversation. The expression describes a general discussion of common past experiences.
2 talk about phones: This is incorrect. Charlie and Icarus spend a lot of time talking about phone numbers, however the expression "to talk about old times" is unrelated to a discussion about telephones.
3 cell phone: This is the best choice. Charlie says "it's probably best if (Brian) reaches me on my mobile". "To reach" has a few meanings, but here the term refers to "contacting someone by telephone". Note that in the UK we say "mobile phone", while in American English the term "cell phone" is used. Both terms are understood by English speakers.
3 land line: This is not the best choice. A "land line" telephone is a "main line" or "fixed-line" telephone that stays in one place. This term is usually used to describe the telephone that people have in their house or home.
3 internet phone: This is not the best choice. Although it is now possible to telephone "over the internet" using voice over IP technology (such as Skype), a "mobile phone" refers simply to a portable or cellular telephone.
3 speaker phone: This is not the best choice. A "speaker phone" is not really a type of phone but rather an option on a phone that allows you to communicate "hands-free" at a certain distance from the receiver. It is often used if several people need to talk during a phone call (and also for humiliating shy people!).
Übung 3
In order to the teleconference, Brian will need a with a microphone, a to make a video call, and a internet connection.
In order to set up 1 the teleconference, Brian will need a headset 2 with a microphone, a webcam 3 to make a video call, and a broadband 4 internet connection.
1 set up: This is the correct choice. To "set up (a meeting)" is to arrange, organise and establish it. Example: I would like to set up an appointment with our suppliers for next week. Bruno asks Brian to set up the Skyte teleconference.
1 install: This is incorrect. "To install" and "to set up" share similar meanings, however it is customary to install "objects" (not events) in order to make them ready for use (such as a computer).
1 assemble: This is incorrect. "To assemble" and "to set up" share similar meanings, however it is customary to assemble "objects" (not events) in order to make them ready for use (such as a computer).
2 headset: This is the correct answer. A "headset" is a general term for a device consisting of one or two earphones with a headband for holding them over the ears and sometimes with a microphone attached. "Headsets" are used to listen and talk with people online or via the telephone while keeping the hands free.
2 handset: This is incorrect. A "handset" is the part of a telephone that you hold with your hand. It contains a small speaker and microphone for listening and talking into.
2 helmet: This is incorrect. A "helmet" is a form of protection for the head. "Helmets" are worn by soldiers, firemen, policeman, motorcyclists and cyclists.
3 webcam: This is the correct answer. A "webcam" is a device which allows one to send images over the internet or to have video chats. Don't forget to turn your webcam off when you are doing something sexual or illegal (or both).
3 video camera: This is incorrect. A "video camera" is used to make video films not video chats.
3 glass eye: This is incorrect. "Glass eyes" are useful to make you look like a Bond villain, but they are not used for video chat.
4 broadband: This is the correct answer. "Broadband" describes high data rate (or high speed) Internet access. It has replaced "dial-up" internet access which uses a modem.
4 high debit: This is incorrect. "High debit" does not describe high speed Internet access.
4 land line: This is incorrect. A "land line" is a terrestrial telephone line (as opposed to a mobile or cell phone). "Land lines" are also called "fixed lines".
