By the way, we've now added an "embedded MP3 player" which means our users can hear Ralf's and Y.'s voices by just one click. No need to have an external media player on your PC... _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

Oh, I see. Thanks, Torsten. It's detailed responses like that that really make life worth living.
Out of curiosity, have any of the tests been recorded by someone with an American or Canadian accent? . |

. By the way, would you say that responses which never come are even more worthwhile? . |

Hi,
I've just edited Torsten's and Amy's messages, because the person in question stated private reasons as to why he did not want to be mentioned here. |
Well, then you might need to edit some other threads too, Ralf. . |

Both of those quotes were a reference to this test: http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic1890.html#100445
Is that test also going to be corrected? . |

Have you noticed that it has been literally impossible to get a straight answer from you about this? Either you're going to fix the error or you're not. If you're not going to fix it, then why not have the courage of your convictions and just say so?
Why all the silly beating around the bush? . |

Hi Charles,
Many thanks for pointing this out. I changed it a couple of weeks ago and it will go online with the next update. Regards, Torsten _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

Q#2 needs some sort of repunctuating. I suggest: Charlie: Yes, hello. It's Charlie here.
Q#3 does, too. I suggest: Woman: Me? Oh, I'm doing ........., thank you. And you?
For Q#9 perhaps: Woman: By the way, I don't know anybody ......... Charlie.
And #10: Charlie: Sorry about that. I must have ......... the wrong number. _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |
