Question 1

After high school, I’d like to go to college and

finding out how children learn.
Q: What do we learn from the
conversation?
Question 2

do is set up the microphones and speakers. They'll
be
here in a few minutes.

What preparations have yet to be made?

minutes, then we can go.

Question

W: I'm not sure what I’m
in a mood for. Ice

M: Excuse me, I need some information
about some of the towns near here.
W:
What would you like to know?
M: Well,
first, I'd like directions to go to Norwalk. I
believe there is an interesting
museum
there. It isn't far, is it?
W: No, not
at all. Norwalk is about eighteen miles east of
here on Route 7. And
you're right. It's
a wonderful little museum.
M: Oh good.
Now what about Amitsville? I have some friends.
I'd like to visit
there and I also want
to get to Newton. They are near each other, aren't
they?
W: Hmm... well, they are actually
in opposite directions. Amitsville is northeast.
It's about thirty five miles northeast
of here.
M: Huh-uh, thirty five miles
northeast. And how about Newton?
W:
Well, Newton is in the other direction. It's
southwest, so it isn't really very
close to Amitsville at all and it's a
long drive. It's about fifty five miles southwest
from here and the road is not at all
straight.
M: Fifty five miles
southwest! Well, maybe I won't go there this time.
W: I'd recommend visiting Westfield or
Great Town. They are both very close.
Westfield is just seven miles west of
here and Great Town is about five miles
south. They are really pretty little
towns with lots of old houses and beautiful
tree-lined streets.
M: I
see. Seven miles west to Westfield and five miles
south to Great Town.
Good. Well, I
think that's all the information I need for a
while. Thank you.
You've been very
helpful.
W: You're welcome, sir. I hope
you enjoy your stay.
Q9: What does the
man know about Norwalk?
Q10: What does
the woman say about Amitsville and Newton?
Q11: What do we learn about Westfield
and Great Town?

M: Err...
Sandra, I've finished with Mr. Gordon now. Do you
think you could pop
through in bringing
me up-to-date on their arrangements for the
Italian trip?
W: Certainly, Mr.
Wilkinson. I'll bring everything with me.
M: Right, take a seat. Now my first
meeting is when?
W: Your first meeting
is on Monday the 21st at 9a.m. with Dr. Gucci of
Bancos
en Piedra in Milan.
M: OK, so can I fly out early Monday
morning?
W: Well, there is a flight to
Lenarty Airport which leaves at six thirty London
time and gets in at eight thirty
Italian time.
M: Yeah, but that only
leaves me thirty minutes to clear customs in
getting to
the city center and it means
I have to check in by five thirty, which means
leaving home at about four fifteen.
W: I'm afraid so.
M: Hmm...
not so keen on that. What's the program for the
rest of that day?
W: It's quite full,
I'm afraid. At eleven, you're seeing Jeana Rivard
at Meg Star
and then you'll have a
lunch engagement with Gaven from the Chamber of
Commerce at one.
M: Where's
that?
W: You're meeting him at his
office and then he's taking you somewhere.
M: Good, that sounds fine. What about
the afternoon?
W: Well, at three
thirty, you're seeing our sales representative
there and then
you're free till
evening.
M: I see. I seem to remember
that I'm having a dinner with someone from
Bergamo.
W: That's right.
And Mr. Betty from SAP Industries at eight.
Q12: What would the man like the woman
to do?
Q13: At what time is Mr.
Wilkinson going to leave home for the airport?
Q14: Who is Mr. Wilkinson going to have
a lunch with on Monday?
Q15: What is
most probably the woman's job?

Listening Comprehension
Listening Passage 1
Donna
Fredrick’s served with the Peace Corps for two
years in Brazil. She
joined
the Peace Corps after she graduated
from the college because she wanted to do
something to help other people. She had
been brought up on a farm, so the
Peace
Corps assigned her to a agricultural project.
Before she went to Brazil,
she studied
Portuguese for three months. She also learnt a
great deal about its
history and
culture. During her two years with the Peace
Corps, Donna lived in
a village in
northeast Brazil. That part of Brazil is very dry
and farming is often
difficult there.
Donna helped the people of the village to organise
an arrigation
project, and she also
advised them on planting corps. They didn’t
require much
water. When Donna returned
to the States, she couldn’t settle down. She tried
several jobs, but they seemed very
boring to her
. She couldn’t get Brazil
out of
her mind. Finally, one day she
got on an plane and went back to Brazil. She
wasn’t sure what she’s going to do. She
just wanted to be there. After a few
weeks, Donna found a job as an English
teacher, teaching five classes a day.
Like most of the teachers, she doesn’t
make much money. She shares a small
apartment with another teacher. And she
makes a little extra money by sending
stories to newspapers in the States.
Eventually she wants to quit teaching and
work as a full-time journalist.
