    Questions 18 to 22.
     You will bear another five recordings. Five speakers are talking about problems with a project.
     For each recording, decide what the problem was.
     Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.
     Do not use any letter more than once.
     After you have listened once, replay the recordings.
     You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.

    Well, we’d put together what we thought was an excellent team for the project - that is, until we hit technical problems and realised that we needed staff with a wider range of specialised technical experience than the people we’d recruited. So we had to advertise again to replace some key members of the team; we were lucky that we just about managed to cover the extra costs within the budget. Our customers were very satisfied with the outcome.

    Although we had minor problems with suppliers from the start, these were easily overcome. Initially, I thought we’d underestimated the cost of the project, as it was so tight most of the time, but we managed to avoid an overspend. It was a very stressful time. However, it was the breakdowns which really upset the staff, and I wouldn’t have blamed them if they’d walked out on strike the fifth time it happened in a week.
