B. Listening comprehension

Read the article about getting tickets for a basketball game on pages 22-23 of English Now No 108. Then listen to this conversation and reorder the sentences.

Belinda, the CEO of the English supplier, is calling Bob about the basketball game.

a. Belinda: Hello Bob. I just heard that Jane is getting us seats to the Bulls game next week, and I wanted to thank her. Is she there?
b. Belinda: Actually, I wanted to see if it was possible to get courtside seats, since this will probably be my only opportunity to see the Bulls play in person.
c. Belinda: That would be absolutely fine. Thanks so much for your help, Bob. Bye!
d. Belinda: Oh, and there is one other thing: when my son heard about the game, he got really excited about coming to Chicago with me to see it. Do you think it’s possible for me to bring a plus one?
e. Bob: Um, well, like I said, Belinda, I’ll have to check with Jane. Is it okay if she gets back to you later today?
f. Bob: No, I’m sorry, she’s out. Can I take a message?
g. Bob: Oh, you know what, I’ll check. Maybe that is possible, but it’s actually Jane who is getting the tickets.
h. Bob: Hi Belinda, it’s so nice to hear from you. What can I do for you?
