Questions 11:
W:I need to find a dentist; you said
you know Dr. Smith well, do you recommend her?
M: Well, I had to see her a few times,
but what impressed me most were the magazines in
her waiting room.
Q: What does the
woman imply?
Question 20:
W: I’m afraid I can’t show you the
apartment at the moment, because the tenant is
still living in it. It’s really a
lovely place, with a big kitchen and a
sunny window, for only two hundred dollars a
month.
M: Sounds good, but we really
can
’t rent an apartment without seeing
it first.
Q: What do we
learn from the conversation?
Question
20:
M: So, that’s what’s
been keeping you so busy recently!
W: Yes, I’ve been tied up with my
studies. You know I’m planning to go to the United
States this c
oming summer,
but I’m a bit nervous about my
English.
Q: What is the
woman busy doing?
Question
20:
W: How did you feel when
you found out you had high blood pressure?
M: Shocked! The problem for me was that
there were no symptoms; it seemed to have sneaked
up on me.
Q: What does the man mean?
Question 20:
W:
So, you’re just back from a trip to India. What
were you doing there?
M: The
trip was intended to bring to the world’s
attention the fact that AIDS is not just an
African disease; it’s
also endangering
other countries, notably, India and Thailand.
Q: What was the purpose of the man’s
trip to India?
Question
20:
M: It’s quite clear form
my visit, this is a full size, comprehensive
university. So why is it still called a
college?
W: The College of
William and Mary is the second oldest institution
of higher learning in this country. We have
nurtured great minds like Thomas
Jefferson and we are proud of our name.
Q: What do we learn from this
conversation about the College of William and
Mary?
Question 20:
M: Have the parts we need for the photo
copying machine arrived yet?
W: I
ordered them last week, but something is holding
them up.
Q: What does the woman say
about the parts needed for the photo copying
machine?
Question 20:
W: The cafeteria provided many kinds of
dished for us today. Did you notice that?
M: Yes, kind of rare, isn’t
it?
Q: What does the man
imply?
Now you’ll hear the
two long conversations.
Conversation One:
W: :Hello, Patrick, is that you?
M: Yeah Jane, what can I do for you?
W: I was calling about the apple tree
that you were trimming yesterday.
M:
That was hard work!
W: I’m sure it was.
It sure looked difficult.

M: Yeah, I’m
glad it’s finished. Hauling the branches to the
front for garbage pick up was no fun
either.
W: Well, I don’t
think you’re quite finished yet, some of the
larger branches fell over into my yard, and I
think
you should come and get them.
M: Listen Jane, I don’t see why I
should do that. You eat all the apples that fall
in your yard and you’ve never
complained about that before.
W: Well, it’s easier to pick up apples
then to drag tree branches all the way to the
curb. My kids pick up the apples,
and
the branches are just too big for them to drag.
M: Well, I guess you’ll just have to do
it yourself Jane.
W:
Patrick, I wi
sh you would reconsider.
We’ve always gotten along fairly well, but I think
you’re out of line here.
The branches
are your responsibility.
M: Sorry Jane,
I disagree! You take the benefits of the apple
tree, but refuse to deal with the bad side of it!
Besid
es, it won’t take you
any time to get the branches out front!
W: Get the branches off my property or
I’ll have to sue you.
M:
Yeah? For what?! You’re taking those law classes
too seriously! I’ve gotta go, I have to pick up my
son.
W: You’ll be hearing
from
me.
M: Yeah, yeah. See
you in court Jane.
Questions 20-22 are
based on the questions you have just heard.
Question 20:
What did the man
do yesterday?
Question
20:
What did the woman ask the man to
do?
Question 21:
What did the
woman threaten to do?
Question
22:
What was the man’s reaction to the
woman’s threat?
Conversation Two:
M: Did you hear about the air crash
that occurred in South America recently? It was
quite a tragic accident!
W: No,
I didn’t see anything in the news about
it. What happened?
M: A
foreign airliner was attempting to land at night
in a mountainous area in Argentina and flew into a
hill!
W: That sounds really terrible!
Did anyone survive?
M: No, everyone
aboard, including the crew, was killed instantly.
W: What were the circumstances? Were
they bad weather, a fire, or engine failure?
M: Apparently, there was some low
clouds in the area, but mostly it was just
miscommunication between the
pilots and
the are traffic controllers.
W: Weren’t
they both speaking in English, the official
internat
ional aviation language?
M: Yes they were, but the transmit ion
from poor quality radios was slightly distorted
and the accents of the
Spanish speaking
controllers was so strong that the pilots that the
pilots misunderstood a vital instruction.
W: How could a misunderstanding like
that cause such a serious accident?
M:
The pilots were told to descend to 2-2,000 feet.
The instruction actually meant 22,000 feet, but
they thought
they heard descend 2,000
feet. That’s a huge difference, and it should have
been
confirmed, but it was not.
Unfortunately, the terrain of the
mountains in Norweija ascend to 2,000 feet.
W: So the pilots did descend to the
wrong altitude then, because they were following
the air controllers
instructions.
M: Sadly enough, yes they did. It was a
really bad mistake. Many people died as a result
of the simply
understanding.
W: Wow, that’s a powerful lesson on how
important it can be to accurately communicate to
each other.
Questions: 23-25 are based on the
conversation you have just heard.
Question 23
:What was the
cause of the tragedy?
