Correct Answer: He wants a programme that avoids further injury.

Why this is correct: The man mentions knee pain from an old injury. The customer brings this up because the customer wants to make sure the programme does not make his knee worse. The customer is looking for something safe for his condition.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • He prefers exercises that are more intense.: The customer does not say the customer prefers intense exercises.
  • He wants to cancel a previous membership.: The customer is not trying to cancel a membership.
  • He is asking for a medical referral.: The customer is not asking for a medical referral.

Correct Answer: They are the least expensive option.

Why this is correct: The trainer says group classes are the most affordable option at $25 per week. This makes them the least expensive of the three choices available - group, personal training, and the starter programme.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • They require a one-year commitment.: No long-term commitment is mentioned for group classes.
  • They include only strength training.: Group classes include cardio and strength, not just strength training.
  • They are designed only for advanced members.: The trainer describes small classes focused on general fitness, including cardio and strength. No advanced-members-only restriction is stated.

Correct Answer: They are held on weekday mornings and early afternoons.

Why this is correct: The trainer says personal sessions are offered between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m., Monday to Friday. This covers weekday mornings and early afternoons.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • They can only happen after group classes end.: The trainer gives a weekday schedule of 6 a.m. to 1 p.m.; sessions being available only after group classes is not stated.
  • They must be scheduled at least a week in advance.: A week-in-advance booking requirement is not mentioned.
  • They can be booked only on weekends.: Sessions are offered from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m., Monday to Friday, so they are not described as weekend-only.

Correct Answer: A mix of personal sessions and group classes.

Why this is correct: The trainer says the starter programme includes two personal training sessions plus unlimited group classes. It combines both types of exercise into one package.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • Free gym membership for a year.: A free year of membership is not included.
  • Only group classes.: It includes both personal sessions and group classes, not just group classes.
  • Daily personal training sessions.: Daily personal training is not part of the deal.

Correct Answer: It balances safety, flexibility, and cost.

Why this is correct: The trainer recommends the starter programme because it addresses the man's knee concern with personal sessions, offers flexibility through group classes, and costs $150 for four weeks. It balances safety, variety, and affordability.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • It focuses only on cardio exercises.: It is not focused only on cardio.
  • It requires no effort from the trainer.: The trainer would be involved in the personal sessions.
  • It is the most popular programme at the gym.: Popularity is not the reason given.

Correct Answer: Sign up for the starter programme.

Why this is correct: The man says the starter programme sounds like the best option for now. The trainer confirms it is a good choice. The man is ready to sign up for it.

Why the other options are wrong:

  • Join only the group classes.: The customer did not choose group classes alone.
  • Ask for a refund on a past programme.: The customer does not mention a past programme or refund.
  • Look for another gym in Sherbrooke.: The customer seems satisfied and does not mention looking at other gyms.
