SALLY:

Oh,

Peter,

there

you

are.

You

’

ve

been

ages.

What

kept

you

so long?

PETER:

I’m

sorry

I’m

so

late,

Sally.

Have

you

been

waiting

long?

SALLY:

Oh,

half

an

hour

.

But

it

doesn’t

matter.

I’ve

had

a

coffee

and

I’ve

been

reading

this

guidebook

for

tourists.

Sit

down.

You

look very hot and tired. What would you like to drink? Example

PETER:

I’d

love

a

really

chilled

mineral

water

or

something.

Will

you have another coffee? Q1

SALLY: Yes, I will. The waitress will be back in a moment. Why

were you so late? Did something happen?

PETER: Yes. You know I went to the bank to cash some travellers

cheques? Well, the exchange rate was looking healthy, but when

I went to the teller, they told me the computer system was

temporarily

down

,

so

they

couldn’t

do

any

transactions.

They

said

the

problem

would

be

fixed

in

a

few

minutes,

so

I

waited.

And

then

I started talking to another guy in the bank, and I forgot the

time. Q2

SALLY:

Oh,

really?

Someone

you

met

in

the

bank?

Does

he

work

there?

PETER:

NO,

he

was

a

tourist,

fromNew

York

.

His

name’s

Henry,

and

he’s

been

here

for

a

week,

but

he’s

moving

on

toGermanytomorrow.

He’s an architect, and he’s spending four weeks travelling

aroundEurope. Q3

SALLY: Just like us!

PETER: Yeah, just like us. He told me the names of some places

where we should eat. Great food, and not too expensive, he said.

Oh, and he also gave me this map of the bus system. He said he

didn’t need it any more. Q4

SALLY:

That’s

useful.

Pity

he’s

moving

on

tomorrow.

Ah,

here’s

the waitress. Let’s order.

Do you want anything to eat, or shall we just have a drink?

PETER: Well, I’m hungry, and we’ve got a lot of sightseeing to

do, so let’s just have

a snack and a drink. Q5

SALLY: Sounds good to me!

PETER:

Well,

let

’

s

decide

what

we

’

ll

see

today.

I

guess

the

best

place to start is the Cathedral, and then the Castle. What are

the opening times for those two?

SALLY: Well, according to this guidebook, the Cathedral is only

open from nine-thirty in the morning until midday. No, hang on.

That’s

theCathedralMuseum.

The

Cathedral

itself

is

open

morning

and afternoon. The Castle is just open from one to five, so we

can’t go there until after lunch. I really want to spend some

time in theArtGallery, because they’ve got this wonderful

painting by Rembrandt that I’ve always wanted to see. Q6

PETER: What else should we see?

SALLY: Well, the guidebook says the Botanical Gardens are worth

spending some time in, and they’re open al

l day, from eight to

six, so we can go there any time. I’d like to go to the Markets

near the river too, but... oh... no, wait, that’s only in the

mornings, too.

PETER:

AS

well

as

today

and

tomorrow,

we

can

see

some

other

places

on Monday, you know. But I

don’t think the Markets will be open

then

;

they

only

open

on

Thursdays,

so

we’ve

missed

them

for

this

week. Maybe we should go to the Cathedral today because it’s

Sunday tomorrow, and even though it’s open every day it might

be

more

difficult

to

get

in

tomorrow

because

of

the

church

services.

Q7

SALLY: That’s true, but theArtGalleryisn’t open on Sundays at

all, so we’ll have to go there today. The Castle’s open every

day

except

Mondays,

so

we’re

OK

there,

and

the

Gardens

of

course

only close at night.

PETER: Are all these places free or do we have to pay to go in?

What does the guidebook say?

SALLY: I think there’s

a charge for all of them except the

Botanical

Gardens

. Oh, and

the

Markets,

of

course

you

don’t pay

to go in. Q8

PETER:

OK,

well,

it

looks

like

our

plan

is

this:

we’ll

go

to

see

the painting you like first, the Rembrandt, then have lunch and

go on to the Castle after that, and then the Cathedral. Q9

SALLY: OK. It says here that the roof of the Cathedral is really

beautiful.

PETER: IS that right? What I really want to do at the Cathedral

is climb the tower. The view is supposed to be spectacular. Q10

SALLY: OK, well, that’ll be more than enough for t

oday. Then,

tomorrow, let’s go to the Botanical Gardens and have a picnic.

I

want

to

sit

by

the

river

and

watch

the

swans.

This

city’s

famous

for them.

So

the

counselling

services

we

offer

deal

with

any

problems

arising

from

your

studies,

or

in

your

life

outside

the

university.

Let

’

s

take

academic

counselling. If you

’

re confused about subjects or how to combine them

in

your

degree,

then

we

can

advise

you

and

discuss

the

career

you

are

aiming

for,

so

that

you

can

see

it

all

in

context.

We

can

also

chase

up

your

tutor

if you

’

re not getting proper feedback on how you are getting on in your

subject. Q11 Besides help with academic problems, you may also need

personal counselling: if you think you

’

re already under stress, well,

just wait till classes begin next week. You

’

ll have to start adjusting

to teaching and learning methods that may be unfamiliar to you, as well

as

the

mounting

pressure

as

the

deadline

for

that

first

assignment

creeps

up

on

you.

And

of

course,

you

have

to

cope

with

all

this

without

your

usual

social network - you know, the social contacts. family and friends you

could normally rely on for help. All of this causes anxiety. Studying

overseas can trigger a personal crisis - you may have left a lot of what

you might call

‘

unfinished business

’

back in your own country, or you

may

have

interrupted

personal

relationships

or

even

sometimes

have

broken

them

off

to

come

overseas,

and

so

the

student

often

feels

lonely,

unhappy,

unmotivated

and

unable

to

concentrate

on

studying.

Or

there

may

be

other

things bothering you. Our resident chaplain can offer you spiritual

guidance

if

that

’

s

what

you

want,

or

we

can

put

you

in

touch

with

community

groups

that

can

provide

you

with

social

contacts

and

friendship.

Q12

Q13

Q14 What about exam stress? It affects nearly everyone to some extent,

but especially overseas students like yourselves. There may be a huge

amount of family pressure on you to succeed, and if you fail a subject

or

drop

out

of

a

course

because

it

’

s

too

difficult

then

your

self- esteem

can

suffer.

But

it

’

s

not

the

end

of

the

world

if

you

don

’

t

pass

an

exam

- I had to resit First Year Anthropology, so I can certainly offer you

a sympathetic ear! Anyway, exam failure can lead to worrying changes in

the way you normally behave. You may also be off your food, or you may

have dietary problems because the local food is not to your liking and

upsets you, and this can affect your health and studies. Glenda Roberts

is our dietician in the Health Service and we can put you on to her. Q15

Q16 And we all have money problems, don

’

t we? But remember, full-time

students can get a low-interest loan of up to six hundred dollars to buy

books

and

for

similar

study-related

expenses.

That

’

s

right,

and

you

can

get

double

that

amount

if

you

can

’

t

afford

an

item

of

equipment

you

need

for

your

course

-

a

musical

instrument,

for

example.

And

it

doesn

’

t

stop

there. When you move into a flat, starting-up expenses, including

furniture for it, can be covered by a loan through the Welfare Service

-

see

Jill

Freeman

for

details.

Q17

Q18

Can

we

help

you?

Well,

last

academic

year, in spite of staff cuts, we counselled two hundred and forty

international students for a total of twenty-six hundred hours

counselling, and, finally we won all but just one of the twelve appeals

that we launched on behalf of students. Not too bad for an understaffed

service, don

’

t you think? That

’

s all from me. Thank you. Q19 Q20
