The correct answer is 12 because Daniel says it is a one-year lease, which is 12 months, even though there is an option to leave after six months.

Associated Text:
It's a one year lease, although there's an option to leave after the first six months if I need to.

The correct answer is Brazilian because Daniel directly answers the nationality question by saying he is Brazilian.

Associated Text:
Right, I speak Portuguese at home, so that may be why it's on your form. Nationality wise, I'm actually Brazilian. I've been in this country for about three years now.

The correct answer is software engineer because Daniel says he works as a software engineer for a small company in town.

Associated Text:
On the payroll form it says software engineer, so please use that rather than web designer. I work for a small company in town.

The correct answer is job because Daniel explains that the main reason he moved to Riverton was for the job.

Associated Text:
The cheaper rent helped, and my brother is not far away, but my job moved with the firm, so it's much easier for me to live nearby.

The correct answer is Wednesday because the council staff checks the address and says Daniel's collection day will be Wednesday.

Associated Text:
There are two Beechwood entries here: Avenue is Tuesday, Drive is the one on Ashford Estate. Yes, I've got your road now, so your collection day will be a Wednesday.

The correct answer is paper because the council staff says the small black box is for paper only, such as newspapers, magazines, and junk mail.

Associated Text:
The black box catches people out because it looks like the old glass box, but yours is different. Use it for paper: newspapers, magazines, junk mail, that sort of thing, but please don't put any cardboard in it.

The correct answer is blue because the green bin is collected on alternating weeks with the recycling, and the staff says one week it is green and the next week it is the blue one.

Associated Text:
If you find an old leaflet saying grey, ignore it. The current recycling bin is blue, so one week it's green, the next week it's the blue one.

The correct answer is kitchen because the staff says the small brown food-waste caddy is kept in the kitchen.

Associated Text:
It's not the outdoor food bin first; we start you with the kitchen container. We call it a caddy. It's a small brown caddy that you keep in the kitchen.

The correct answer is 48 because the council staff says the annual registration fee is forty-eight pounds.

Associated Text:
The payment page may show the optional thirty five pound garden charge underneath, so don't mix the two up. For the standard service, the council charges a small annual registration fee of forty eight pounds.

The correct answer is 6308142 because the council staff gives Daniel the seven-digit household reference number as six-three-zero-eight-one-four-two.

Associated Text:
I'll read it in two parts, because people often reverse the middle digits. It starts six three zero, then eight one four two: six three zero eight one four two.

Note: After the instruction audio, you will have 20 seconds to look at questions before listening to the conversation.
