A
Angela
Hello, how can I join the library?
R
Ray
Well, you need to make an application. Would you like to do it now?
A
Angela
Yes, if I can.
R
Ray
One moment and I'll get the form. Now I just need to ask you a few questions before you sign at the bottom.
A
Angela
Okay.
R
Ray
Your full name, please.
A
Angela
Angela Mary Price.
R
Ray
Price?
A
Angela
Yes, that's right.
R
Ray
Okay, and your address?
A
Angela
Apartment 3, 86 Bridge Street, Pimlico.
R
Ray
Bridge Street. That's just near here, isn't it?
A
Angela
Yes, not very far.
R
Ray
Good, so the postcode must be 2065, right?
A
Angela
Yes, that's right.
R
Ray
Now your telephone number. I need both home and work if you have them.
A
Angela
My home number is 8763-5142 and work is 8456-1307. Do you need anything else like ID or something?
R
Ray
Yes, your driver's license will do if you have one.
A
Angela
Right. It's easy to remember. I know it by heart, 4040 AC.
R
Ray
I'm afraid I'll also need to see it.
A
Angela
Okay, here it is.
R
Ray
Thanks. And your date of birth, please?
A
Angela
24 March, 1981.
R
Ray
Okay, thanks. That's the most important part completed. But if you don't mind, I'd also like to ask you a few questions for a survey we're conducting.
A
Angela
Yes, that's okay.
R
Ray
What kind of books do you like to read? Here's a list to look at.
A
Angela
Oh, it varies from time to time, but I always like to relax and learn about other countries I might visit one day. I don't like anything too heavy or serious unless it's about animals or the environment. I'm not really into sports very much.
R
Ray
Anything else?
A
Angela
Well, I do like entertaining at home, you know, dinner parties. So I suppose you'll have something for me in that line. The pictures in those books always make me hungry, although they've never seen to turn out as exactly as they look in the books.
R
Ray
Fine, I think that's all I need now, except I need you to sign here on the application form. Oh, and I almost forgot, the membership fee is $20, which is refundable if you no longer stay a member.
A
Angela
There you are. Do I sign at the bottom here?
R
Ray
Yes, that's right. You can borrow books now if you wish, although your membership card won't be ready until next week. So if you want to borrow today, you can pick up your card when you return your first books. That's if you want to take some now.
A
Angela
I think I will, but I'll have a look around first.
R
Ray
Okay, take your time.

Try to answer first and read the transcript afterwards. It is most useful for finding out why an answer was missed.
