[00:09.65]Exercise 4 Listen to Part 1 of an interview

[00:14.00]with Helen Cooper and answer these questions:

[00:17.98]Hello and welcome to "The Shopping Programme".

[00:20.94]Today we're going to talk about bargains.

[00:23.53]In the studio we have Helen Cooper,

[00:25.97]a journalist,and a very enthusiastic shopper.

[00:28.70]Hello.

[00:30.17]Most people in Britain don't bargain for things

[00:32.50]you know,argue about the price of something.

[00:35.17]We pay the full price in the shop.

[00:37.42]The only time we probably bargain

[00:38.85]is when we buy a house or maybe

[00:41.12]when we buy a car.

[00:42.87]But what about you,Helen?

[00:44.41]Which of these things here would bargain for

[00:47.41]the fax machine,the scarfs,

[00:49.66]the necklace,the old record.

[00:52.05]Well,it depends where you are.

[00:53.81]You can't usually bargain in a supermarket,

[00:56.72]but sometimes you can bargain

[00:58.38]in shops and markets.

[01:00.24]For example,if you pay cash

[01:02.00]or buy a lot of things,

[01:03.58]you can often get a discount.But let's see.

[01:06.90]Well, I'd definitelly bargain

[01:09.17]for a fax machine.

[01:11.02]Mm,jewellery,a necklace,yes,why not?

[01:13.87]Scarfs,yes,sure.

[01:16.09]You can get good offers if you bargain,

[01:17.93]especially for clothing.Old records.

[01:20.29]Yes,you can certainly bargain for these,

[01:23.02]but you need to know if the record is valuable!
