雅思听力 剑3 文本[精品文档]

2019年雅思听力Test3 Section 1题目解析Early learning childcare center enrolment form难度点评：-干扰信息多，几乎每一个问题都在音频中给出了至少两个备选答案，但一般以两人意见达成一致的为准，往往此类信息置后。

-字母M/N的区分-答案信息前置，在通过题干信息定位到答案句时，其中的答案信息为代词，指代之前已经提到的答案，详见第10题。

Personal details：Q1,题干出现age，反推答案句为表达年龄的句式，重点听‘how old…your daughter’s age is…’等问句后内容。

答案句：She’s three now but she turns four nextmonth….I’ll put four down，以转折后信息为准，答案为4。

拓展：关于雅思听力中答案词为数字时的写法，建议写阿拉伯数字，虽然本题写成four也准确，但是写成阿拉伯数字的优势有两个，一是不会产生拼写错误;二是当字数要求为‘No more than one word and/or a number’时，如果答案为‘两个方向’，写成two directions，错误。

写成2directions准确。

所以，为了规避犯错风险，建议考生把数字均写成阿拉伯数字形式。

Q2,题干出现address，注意听力中出现过address的三个常见发音，分别为：['dres]，[dres]，['dri：s]。

地址格式：数字+名称+街道，本题道路名称给出了拼写，但是要注意M/N的区分。

一般来说，单词在拼写之前，会先发音，考生能够现根据发音规律预测字母。

M/N的另一个区分点在于是否有闭口音，M音频中含有闭口音m，所以听到闭口音时往往为字母M。

答案句：It’s 46 Wombat Road, that’s W-O-M-B-A-T.Childcare InformationQ3,通过空前Monday以及and预测答案信息为星期，星期中注意星期三Wednesday，星期四Thursday，星期二Tuesday，星期六Saturday的拼写，常考察。

Some of them have gone to the top, which has given women prid e and self-confid ence. Of course the picture is not perfect. In the first place a very large number of women d o not even try to enter 'mal e' professions because they lack the necessary training or because they are not bold enough to take risks on new paths. For one woman executive or one woman judge, there are still countl ess typists and saleswomen who struggl e through their day without any sense of fulfillment. Besid es, many of their braver sisters, who dare to compete with men in higher fiel ds, find that mal e opposition is still strong, and that society is still ready to explain a woman's success by reasons that have nothing to do with her intelligence. Still, the fact remains that women are now free to enter any career that attracts them; the situation has improved, and the tid e is not likely to turn back.Part CPassage 1Many peopl e suffer from some form of extreme anxiety. Some experience occasional attacks of panic for almost no reason. Others go around in a state of continual uneasiness. How d o we control anxiety? The best way is to take drugs which help patients manage their anxiety. Patients who take these drugs say that they are abl e to work, to sl eep and to go to places they feared to visit before. But the effects of the drugs on the human body, especially on the nervous system have not been known for a long time.Scientists have started a series of studies to id entify the effects of the drugs on the brain and have gained some insight into the costs and benefits of the anti-anxiety drugs. They are valuabl e because they can reduce the effects of expected failure, frustration and disappointment. But their value d emands a price. Two effects of the drugs are obviously harmful. First, they weaken a person's ability to react to changes; second, they fail to help a person d eal with unexpected troubl es. It is fairly sure that peopl e will meet with problems they have never expected, so these harmful effects may make the price of anti-anxiety drugs too high.Questions 1 and 2 are based on the passage you've just heard.1. What d oes the passage mainly tell us?2. What is the speaker's attitud e toward anti-anxiety drugs?Passage 2Are some peopl e born cl ever, and others born stupid? Or is the d evelopment of intelligence d epend ent on environment and experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will d evel op his intelligence l ess than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings.It is easy to show that intelligence is something we are born with. The cl oser the bl ood relationship between two peopl e, the cl oser they are likely to be in intelligence. Therefore if we take two unrelated peopl e at rand om from the population, it is likely that their d egree of intelligence will be compl etely different. If we take two id entical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence d epends on birth.Imagine that we take two id entical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for exampl e, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We woul d soon find differences in intelligence d evel opment, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that peopl e who live in cl ose contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have a similar d egree of intelligence.Questions 3 and 4 are based on the passage you've just heard.3. Which of the foll owing can best serve as a titl e of the passage?4. What d oes the example of sending the twins to different places show us?重点单词及词组重点单词及词组重点单词及词组Part A bl oodsucking 吸血动物的mosquito 蚊子malaria 疟疾gall on 加仑pesticid e 杀虫剂Part B competent 有能力的opposition 反对，敌对fulfillment 履行，实行Part C anxiety 忧虑occasional 偶然的intelligence 智力。

Section1剑桥雅思5Test3听力Section 1答案+解析谈话场景：售车中心购车咨询。

人物关系：售车中心工作人员与购车客户。

谈话话题：购买合适的汽车，讨论车况细节以及客户信息。

交际与语言表达1. 本篇文章主要讨论购车咨询过程中的细节问题，这也是雅思生活场景听力试题中经常涉及的内容之一，考生对一些常用的买车购车以及汽车的词汇和表达法要耳熟能详，并且还要了解填写顾客情况调查表时所涉及的一般常用问题。

2. 在售车中心，或者在一般性商场，工作人员或者是销售人员都会主动向顾客问好，并且通常会说： How can I help you? 或Can I help you, Sir/ Madam? 或者是Is there anything I can do for you? 考生在听到这一问题后，应首先反应到下面的对话应该是属于买家与卖家的对话。

3. Had you got any particular make in mind? 您心里是否已经有了特别钟意的( 汽车) 牌子了? 许多考生可能不知道、或者没有留意到make 这个词在这句话的实际意思，但该词直接影响到第一题的答案。

事实上，如果我们事先注意到题目的设置，我们就会知道make 在这里是指“汽车牌子”。

4. Any idea? 您有什么想法/ 意见吗? 该句是地道的口语表达，两个人在说话的时候都有针对前文的省略语，很多地方必须理解说话人上句话才能理解下一句，这在口语中很常见，所以考生一定要对这种省略语倍加注意。

这句话如果补充完整应该是： Do you have any idea of the engine size? 下文中a 1.4 should do 和I don’ t think I need a 1. 6 or anything 以及Mileage? Roughly? 都是如此。

5. I presume you’ d want a manual? …but I assume that’ d be OK? 这两个问句都是售车人员在征求顾客的意见，其中presume 和assume 都等于think，但售车人员在问这两句话时一般都是期望得到顾客肯定的答复。

（完整版）雅思听⼒Section3全⾯解读及⾼频词分享雅思听⼒Section3全⾯解读及⾼频词总结雅思听⼒当中Section1和Section3都是以对话形式出现的，但是两者在内容和形式上还是有⼀定差别的。

从严格意义上来讲，Section3应该属于discussion的范畴，主要以互问互答的形式出现，⽽不是Section1中的⼀问⼀答的形式。

在Section1中答案的信息主要由⼀⽅提供。

⽐如剑5 Test2 Section1题⽬（如图⼀）。

该题是典型的图书馆场景。

考⽣在审题时，必须要意识到答案的⼤部分信息是由图书管理员（librarian）提供的。

所以在听题的时候必须把主要精⼒放在信息的提供者⾝上，在这⼀题中就是图书管理员。

但是在Section3中我们就不能这样来处理题⽬了。

Section3如前⽂所说是属于讨论的范畴，所以讨论的双⽅都不具备直接决定答案信息的条件。

这时候我们就要仔细听清楚最后讨论的结果，是哪⼀⽅说服了哪⼀⽅。

如图⼆（剑4 Test4 Section3）两个学⽣在讨论如何为当地的⼩学⽣准备两个科学实验。

在他们挑选了⼏个实验之后，对实验1-5进⾏筛选。

Sue和Mike分别对五个实验提出了⾃⼰的意见，其中有4个被Sue否定掉了，⼀个被Mike否定掉了。

从上⾯的两个例⼦中我们可以看出，Section1对话的问和答的对象都是相对固定的，但是讨论的问和答的对象却时时更换。

这就需要考⽣看清卷⾯的题⽬，以免听错对象做错题。

通常情况下，雅思听⼒Section3部分题⽬在卷⾯上会有⼈名或者是表⽰⼈⾝份的词出现，⽐如⼈名Karen、导师tutor。

因此，遇到此类题⽬时，考⽣最好⽤笔划出，明确此题⽬的说话⼈，这样才不会做错题⽬，才不会掉到考官给考⽣设置的陷阱⾥。

当然在Section3中不是所有的题⽬都有指定的⼈称，那么题⽬中没有指定⼈称的题⽬我们⼜该如何解决呢？细加分析不难发现，此类题⽬通常是以两⽅或三⽅说话⼈讨论的主题点作为题⽬。

雅思听力part3Amanda一个月突击雅思听力part3Amanda 1 8.5 的答主，可以说是老屠鸭人了。

我们不妨反思一下：为什么会听不懂？我们到底是听不懂什么？我自己总结过，通常雅思听力part3Amanda 2：1.有生词和不熟悉的短语，即便看到文本也不知道是什么意思；2.对话内容多，信息量太大，记不住重点；3.听到内容了也做不对题；4.不习惯 native speaker 的发音，以至于跟不上他们的语速；请对号入座，看看你是哪一种？即便你全部中招，也不用灰心。

要知道雅思作为语言类的考试，是可以「投机取巧」的！所以在断言自己「听力很差」之前，再继续内省：•雅思听力的高频词、词组背了吗？•你知道雅思听力的信号词吗？•雅思听力的题型是固定的。

你研究过不同问题的应对方式吗？不难发现，解决这 3 个问题，就对应解决了前面的「三宗罪」。

具体该怎么做呢？你可以参考一下答主的备考经验（如果你是王者，那么可以略过这个部分）~一、听力高频词、词组以前答主也被自己的「完美主义」和该死的「强迫症」耽误，认为必须要做万全的准备才能考高分。

于是答主当即下单一本巨厚的雅思词汇书，埋头从 A 开始背，起早贪黑痛苦无比，结果一周过去还没背完 B 序列。

那个时候答主已经心如死灰。

说白了，答主一开始就是一个勤奋的书呆子，不讲究方式方法，有一种愚蠢的执念。

平时很容易向身边的神学习。

真的是因为人在开始行动之前都在想一件事。

后来答主想明白了，要在短期内提升，那么单词记背必定要有所侧重，这个时候再采用「词海战术」显然不明智。

因此，答主建议优先记背高频词，它们可以很好地帮助我们理解听力背景。

不至于卡在某个名词术语上，然后一脸懵逼。

现在很多雅思资深老师都把听力材料按照历年真题进行分类，整理出场景对应的高频词，相当于给了我们考试的重点。

例如：•教师职位：Lecturer/ Associate professor/Supervisor/ Dean and etc.•购物消费：Convenience store/ Outlet/ Receipt/ On sale/ In stock and etc.……（完整版可以点击这个免费的雅思训练营链接，里面的赠送的资料里有）答主自己是把这些场景词放进了思维导图，用图像辅助记忆。

剑桥雅思13听力Test3听力答案解析本文为大家带来了剑桥雅思13听力T est3听力答案解析，方便考生做完练习之后及时核对答案解析，下面来看剑桥雅思13听力Test3听力答案解析具体介绍。

剑桥雅思13听力Test3听力答案解析Section 1Question 1答案：850定位原文：scripts:LINDA: Yeah, you should be able to get something reasonable for 850 pounds per month. That’s what people typically pay. You certainly wouldn’t want to pay more than 900 pounds. That doesn’t include bills or anything.解题思路：预测词性的时候，可以确认这里一定是填写一个数字的。

考查数字拼写，但是这里不能像两位数那样填写字母表达，因为题目有字数限制。

同时注意排除900的干扰信息。

Question 2答案：bike/bicycle定位原文：scripts:LINDA: Well, I’m very lucky. I work in the city centre so I don’t have to use public transport. I go by bike.解题思路: 这个题的答案是非常直接简单的。

提到了by bike，而且前文明确说到了不适用公共交通。

Question 3答案：parking定位原文：scripts:LINDA: Yes, it’s fine. And it keeps me fit. Anyway, driving to work in the city centre would be a nightmare because there’s hardly any parking. And the traffic during the rush hour can bebad.解题思路：在原文中there’s hardly any parking也就是parking 非常受到限制，定位信息在city centre。

TEST 3This is the Business English Certificate Vantage 4，Listening Test 3.Part One. Questions 1 to 12.You will hear three telephone conversations or messages.Write one or two words or a number in the numbered spaces on the notes or forms below.After you have listened once，replay each recording.[pause]Conversation One.Questions 1 to 4.Look at the notes below.You will hear a phone conversation between a manager and his PA.You have 15 seconds to read through the notes.[pause]Now listen，and fill in the spaces.[pause]Man: Hi，Jane. Barry here. Sorry this is a bit rushed，but I need you to fax me a document urgently.Woman: No problem. What do you need?Man: That report I’ve been writing on recruitment. I haven’t printed it off，but you’ll find it on my computer. I called it ‘jobsplan’，all one word. OK?Woman: No problem. Which folder is it in?Personnel?Man: That’s right. No，no，hang on，um，I created a new folder called Current Reports - it’s in there.Woman: OK. I’ve made a note of that. If I can’t locate it，I’ll call you back.Man: Fine. It’s quite a long document by the way. So don’t bother sending the appendix. Wedon’t really need that. But include the contents page - that’d be quite useful. Woman: Shall I send it to you there at Head Office?Man: Um... let me think. It might be better to fax it to my hotel.Er，no，you’re right. Send it here.Woman: OK.Man: Thanks very much. Bye.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]Conversation Two.Questions 5 to 8.Look at the notes below.You will hear two colleagues discussing an additional location for their business.You have 15 seconds to read through the notes.[pause]Now listen，and fill in the spaces.[pause]Woman: Hello，Mike，have you got a moment?Man: Sure，what is it?The location?Woman: Yes，we can’t put it off any longer.Man: Hm，especially as we chose the site for the new warehouse last night. We need to get organised.Woman: Exactly. We need a decision today. Where should the discount shop be，then?Man: Well，not too close to our existing branches，that’s for sure. I think it’d better be in the out-of-town retail centre.Woman: I know that’s easier for customers，but the business park，which is the other out-of- town site，would be better for deliveries，which is important.Man: But the trend is towards more and more people using the retail centre，isn’t it? Woman: Well，the survey we did shows people will visit the business park if we open there. Man: Really?I wasn’t expecting that. Is it because we produce specialist goods?Does that make a difference?Woman: Yes.Man: Are there any local grants available?Woman: Not as such，but there are tax benefits if we take on premises in the business park. Man: Right. That’s settled，then. How about...[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]Conversation Three.Questions 9 to 12.Look at the note below.You will hear a woman leaving a message about where to hold a meeting.You have 15 seconds to read through the note.[pause]Now listen，and fill in the spaces.[pause]Hi，it’s Emily Parker in Marketing. I was at the Carlton Hotel yesterday for a sales training meeting. I thought it would be a very suitable place to hold the shareholders’meeting you’re arranging. I heard you’re still looking for somewhere. They’ve recently refurbished all their meeting rooms. I was in a seminar room - it was too small for your event，but I looked at theconference hall and the VIP lounge and either would be perfect - oh，except the conference hall’s booked on the twenty-fifth of October，so it doesn’t leave us any choice. Anyway，they’re both large rooms with comfortable seating，and it’s possible to have a sound system at no extra cost. We’d have to bring a display stand of our own if we wanted one. Assuming you want to go ahead with the twenty-fifth，I mentioned to the Events Manager there that we might want to book，so you’ll need to talk to him，rather than the General Manager in the bookings office. The number’s three-five-seven-two-oh-nine. Bye.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part One. You now have 20 seconds to check your answers.[pause]Part Two. Questions 13 to 22.Section One.Questions 13 to 17.You will hear five short recordings. Five speakers are talking about delegating at work.For each recording，decide what advice the speaker gives about delegating at work.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.[pause]Now listen，and decide what advice each speaker gives about delegating at work.[pause]ThirteenNo matter how much confidence you have in the person you’re entrusting a task to，I think there’s a crucial element to delegating that’s often forgotten. There has to be a framework in place of where and who to go to if they get stuck and need help. I know，as a manager，I’m used to dealing with tasks all by myself，but when I’m delegating to juniors，I always remind myself that not everybody is as independent as me.[pause]FourteenIf you’ve ever delegated to someone else and spent more time on the task than if you’d done it yourself，then it’s time to review where you’re going wrong. If your motivation for delegating is thinking that the other person can do it better than you，or it’ll free you up to do something else，that’s great. But delegation isn’t an easy way out，so if you’re just being lazy or the task seems too small to concern yourself with，always do it yourself.[pause]FifteenOnce you’ve selected someone to delegate a task to - assuming you do have a choice of personnel - there’s something you need to do that’s too important to leave till the job’s finished. It’s a mistake if you don’t make it clear to staff what they’re doing well and what they could improve on. Some managers think it’s a form of interfering and doesn’t give people space to get on with the job，but I find some constructive suggestions are usually helpful.[pause]SixteenWhen you give someone a task to do，there’s not much point in simply listing the particular difficulties involved in carrying it out. You really need to check they understand what challenges they can expect to face and how they might deal with them. So you should sit down with them and explore possible solutions. If they simply say ‘I understand’，it’s not a guarantee that they do.[pause]SeventeenOnce you become an effective delegator，you’ll be talked about by those who see what you and your team can achieve. And，as for team members，well，they’ll appreciate the trust you place in them and the support they’ve received from you. But until you reach that point on the learning curve，keep telling yourself not to give up whenever it doesn’t go to plan. I’ve certainly had some disastrous attempts at delegating in my time.[pause]Now listen to the recordings again.[pause]Section Two.Questions 18 to 22.You will bear another five recordings. Five speakers are talking about the reason for the success of their company’s most recent TV advertising campaign.For each recording，decide what reason the speaker gives for the success of the campaign. 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.[pause]Now listen，and decide what each speaker says is the reason for the success.[pause]EighteenOur last campaign was the most successful ever. Always worried about the cost，we were on a tight budget，but the results were fantastic. Research had shown our rivals’ products were moreattractive，but while the ad was running，one of them had some bad publicity about their products，and we picked up a lot of their trade. Sometimes，it’s not how much you invest or who you use，but just being in the right place at the right time.[pause]NineteenLast year’s TV campaign took the market by storm. In the past，we’d depended heavily on sending out samples to customers - it was a cheap and，we thought，effective way of targeting our core customer base.But last year，we had the good fortune to recruit a dynamic young Marketing Manager who brought with him a group of people who are changing the way we do things. We’re looking to produce another even more successful series of TV commercials next year. [pause]TwentySpend money to earn money！That’s been the philosophy of our organisation for years. The directors liked expensive-looking TV commercials，which appealed to our core customers in the old age bracket. However，our last campaign proved that you don’t always have to go over budget to win new customers. We thought of a new approach，which our agency developed，and it turned out to be cheaper and，to our delight，brought us to the attention of a new，younger market. [pause]Twenty-oneSuccessful TV campaigns can be costly，and good market research is absolutely vital. We’ve always researched thoroughly before a campaign，but there’s something else which was the key to last month’s success. Although some people attribute it to our main rival’s bankruptcy，it was the fact that we found a management group who we brought in to recommend ways of improving our marketing that really helped. A suggestion to use a TV campaign to advertise in-store promotions and mail-order facilities paid off handsomely.[pause]Twenty-twoConsultants recommended hiring a whole new marketing team for the company，but I rejected this. We’ve got a good experienced team in the company. It would’ve been an unnecessary expense. We decided we should put more effort into the groundwork for the campaign. Our team carried out a more detailed customer survey，and on the basis of that，our production company was able to create a commercial that was more accurately targeted.[pause]Now listen to the recordings again.[pause]That is the end of Part Two.[pause]Part Three.Questions 23 to 30.You will hear a radio interview with a businessman called Brett Porter，who developed a product called Rainaway，a type of waterproof map.For each question，23-30，mark one letter (A，B or C) for the correct answer.After you have listened once，replay the recording.You have 45 seconds to read through the questions.[pause]Now listen，and mark A，B or C.[pause]Woman: ... and today we’re talking to Brett Porter，whose company developed the hugely successful all-weather maps called ‘Rainaway’. These are waterproof maps that can beused by people who ride motorbikes. Brett，welcome to the programme.Man: Thanks.Woman: You actually invented Rainaway - how did that come about?Man: Well，anyone，like me，who rides a motorbike，understands the problem of ordinary maps falling to pieces when it’s raining or windy. There are three million bikers just inthe UK，who I knew would be willing to pay for a solution to this problem. Nobody hadever produced something like Rainaway - I’d assumed it couldn’t be done..，that thecosts were too great..，but I was disappointed that my needs as a consumer weren’tcatered for，and people I knew kept encouraging me to develop and produce it as abusiness.Woman: Was establishing the company difficult?Man: In fact，I already had my own company - a motorcycle courier firm - but this was completely different and involved setting up a new business. What I’d learnt aboutpricing didn’t seem to apply - I’d never dealt with a ‘product’ as such. But I knew Iunderstood the market better than most. If I could make the product，I’d be meeting ademand. However，knowing where to sell and how to get it into the shops was anothermatter!Woman: I see.Man: But I was convinced the business would grow fast. I even entered the European Awards Scheme for ideas for business start-ups. It had a first prize of one hundred thousandeuros’worth of software from Croner Consulting. The awards were sponsored byAlliance Business Bank - and because I made the final shortlist，I was offered atwo-per-cent interest loan from them if I needed it. They organised a dinner foreveryone on the shortlist，and I happened to get chatting to their senior businessconsultant，who gave me some invaluable financial advice. It really helped get mestarted.Woman: Did you do any trial production of the maps?Man: Yes. I knew what they should look like - a strong cover and small enough to flick through quickly. But trials took six months. The difficulty was we had to use a reallytough kind of plastic for the cover，and this had to be fed into the printer sheet by sheet- fine for a small output，but absolutely no good for large-scale production. Woman: Did you have any trouble persuading a printing company to make Rainaway?Man: I thought I would - it wasn’t really in a printer’s interest to make a long-lasting product.The real difficulty，though，was my lack of a track record. They thought I was justplanning a one-off print run or a very small-scale operation，which wouldn’t be veryprofitable for them. Once I’d persuaded the boss of one firm that wasn’t the case，heseemed willing to take a chance.Woman: Do you use someone else’s maps to make Rainaway from?Man: Yes，we use Herne Publishing’s. Of course，given they know they’re a crucial supplier，there’s a danger in a few years they might want to buy us out. But in the meantime，Ihave a protected trademark，and the people at Herne Publishing realise it’s better forthem to let me use my knowledge and contacts to establish the business. The alternativefor them would involve spending money on producing a rival product，which I knowthey would be reluctant to do.Woman: You must be pleased with Rainaway’s performance?Man: Absolutely. We launched Rainaway in September two thousand one，and sold two hundred thousand maps in the first year alone. In the last couple of years，the companyturned over in excess of seven hundred thousand pounds，our best result so far，whichisn’t bad when you consider our maps retail at ten to twenty-four pounds each. Woman: Very impressive！What’s next for Rainaway?Do you plan to extend your range? Man: I already have plenty of other ideas for the longer term，but that’s all I can say for now.I’ve been devoting a lot of time recently to facilitating expansion by setting up a callcentre to deal with mail-order sales. That’s just opened，with a staff of twenty-five. Inow need to concentrate on our advertisements - they’ve been very popular so far，butit’s tough coming up with new ideas to continue to attract attention.Woman: I wish you luck.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part Three. You now have ten minutes to transfer your answers to your Answer Sheet.[pause]Note：Teacher，stop the recording here and time ten minutes. Remind students when there is one minute remaining.That is the end of the test.。

It would hurt even more without an injection, wouldn't it? And the reason we're taking it out is because it's hurting you, isn't it?

You can't take out a tooth without losing some blood.Patient: Blood ...!Dentist: But it's a tiny amount. You'll make it up in a day.Patient: A night.Dentist: All right, in a night, then. But as I said it's only a small amount of blood ...Patient: Blood! Blood!Dentist: ... and it isn't going to kill you.Patient: Kill! Kill!Dentist: Oh, don't be silly; of course it won't.

SECTION 3T = TutorM = MarkS = SusanT: OK, everybody, good morning! It’s Mark’s turn to talk to us today soMark, I’ll ask you to get straight down to business.M: Right!T: Now following on from what we were discussing last week in Susan’s tutorialon approaches to marketing, you were going to give us a quick run down ona new strategy for pricing which is now being used by many large companies Q24known as “revenue management”… before we go on to your actual tutorial paper on Sales Targets. Is that correct?M: Yeah, OK, well …T: So what exactly is revenue management?M: Well, it’s a way of managing your pricing by treating things like airlinetickets and hotel rooms rather more as if they were perishable goods.S: Yeah, I just tried to book a ticket yesterday for Perth and would you believethere are three different prices for the flight?M: Right! And what was the rationale for that?S: Well … the travel agent said it depe nded on when you book and the lengthof the stay, like it’s cheap if you stay away for a Saturday night, presumablybecause this isn’t business travel and even cheaper if you buy a ticket where Q25120Tapescriptsyou can’t get a refund if you have to canc el; in that case the ticket costs about half the price. You wouldn’t think it would make that muchdifference, would you?M: Well it does, and that’s basically because the airlines are now treating theirseats like a commodity. You see — if you want a seat today, then you pay farmore for it than if you want it in three weeks’ time.S: That seems rather unfair.M: Well … not really … when you think about it, that’s just common sense isn t Q26if?S: I suppose so.T: What this actually means is that in the same row of seats on the same flightyou could have three people who have all paid a different price for theirtickets.S: And is this just happening in Australia?M: No, no it’s the same all over the world. Airlines are able to “market” a seat asa perishable product, with different values at different stages of its life.S: Well like mangoes or apples at the market.M: Yeah, it’s exactly like that. The fact is that the companies are not actuallyinterested in selling you a cheap flight! They’re interested in selling the seats Q27and flying aeroplanes that are full.T: Mark why do you think revenue management has come about?M: Well, as far as I can see there are two basic reasons: firstly because the lawhas been changed to allow the companies to do this. You see in the past they Q28didn’t have the right to keep changing the prices of the tickets, and secondlywe now have very powerful computer programs to do the calculations and so Q29the prices can be changed at a moment’s notice.S: So you mean ten min utes could be critical when you’re buying a plane ticket? M: Absolutely!T: That’s right!M: And I understand we have almost reached the stage where these computerprograms that the airlines are using will eventually be available to consumersto find the best deals for their travel plans from their home computer Q30S: Heavens! What a thought! So the travel agent could easily become a thing ofthe past if you could book your airline tickets from home. Are there anyother industries using this system, or is it restricted to the airline business? M: Many of the big hotel groups are doing it now. That’s why the price of a bed Q31 in a hotel can also vary so much … depending on when and where you bookitT: It’s all a bit of a gamble really.M: Yes, and hire car companies are also using revenue management to set their Q32 tariffs, because they are also dealing with a “commodity” if you like … so the cost of hiring a car will depend on demand.T: Well, thank you, Mark, for that overview … that was well researched. Nowlet’s get on with your main topic for today…。

ListeningSECTION 3-1-1JANICE:Hello… . . Flagstone.JON:Oh hello; is that Flagstone Properties?JANICE:Yes that’s right. Flagstone here. How can I help you? ExampleJON:Hello. I’m ringing just to make enquiries about renting a house. My name’s Jon Anderson. JANICE: Yes, Mr Anderson. What sort of thing were you looking for?JON: Two-bedroomed house with garden.JANICE:Well . . . yes, sir, that shouldn’t be any problem . . . just to let you know that our main areas, the main areas we deal with, are the city centre itself. . .

Q2JON: Only £250?JANICE: Yes, to about £500 depending on a number of different factors.JON:What does it depend on?JANICE: Well, obviously the quality of the area. And then whether there’s a garden. Q3JON: Well, as I said, we’d want a garden.JANICE: And a garage pushes up the price.JON: Right . . well, we wouldn’t necessarily need one. I think about £350 a month would be our limit.JANICE: OK.

Bye.JANICE: Goodbye.SECTION 2-1-2MRS SMITH: Hello, Mrs. Sutton. Come in. How are you settling in next door?Have all your things from Canada arrived yet?I thought I saw a removals van outside your house yesterday afternoon.MRS SUTTON: Yes. They came yesterday. We spent all day yesterday arranging thin.It’s beginning to feel a bit more like home now.MRS SMITH: That’s good. Look, come in and sit down. Are you alright? You look a bit worried.MRS SUTTON: Well, I am a bit. I’m sorry to bother you so early, Mrs. Smith,but I wonder if you could help me. Could you tell me 1mw I can get hold of a doctor?Our daughter, Anna, isn’t very well this morning and I may have to call somebody out. Q11She keeps being sick and I am beginning to get a bit worried.I just don’t know how the health system works here in England.All I know is that it’s very different from ours back in Canada.MRS SMITH: Well, I don’t know really where to start, Let me think. Well, the first thing you have to dois find a family doctor--sometimes we call them general practitioners as well--and registerwith him or her. If you live here, you’ve got to be on a doctor’s list. If you’re not,things can be a bit difficult. Nobody will come out to you if you’re not registered.Anyway, they work in things called practices. Sort of small groups of family doctors allworking together in the same building. Q12Now what you’ve got to do this morning is register with one of them.There are two practices near here, so we’re quite well off for doctors in this part of Manchester.There’s the Dean End Health Centre about ten minutes’ walk away and there’s another practicein South Hay. That’s about five minutes away going towards the town centre.We’re registered at the Dean End one, but they’re both OK. Q13There are about six doctors in our practice and four in the other. Q14So ours is quite big in comparison. And the building and everything’s a bit more modern.South Hay is a bit old-fashioned but the doctors are OK.Their only problem is that they don’t have a proper appointment system.Sometimes you have to wait for ages there to see someone. Q15Anyway, you go to the receptionist in whichever health centre and ask her to register you with a doctor there.You have to fill in a form, but it doesn’t take long. Ours is called Dr Jones and we’ve been going to him for years - ever since we moved here fifteen years ago. I wouldn’t say lie’s brilliant but I suppose he’s alright really. We’re used to him now. They say he’s very good with elderly people, Q16but he does tend to get a bit impatient with children. Listen, the one who’s supposed to be really good with small children is Dr Shaw. I’ve heard lots of people say that. She’s young and she’s got small children of her own. So you could try registering with her. And if her list is full, I heard somebody say the other day that there’s a really nice young doctor at South Flay, a Dr Williams.He holds special clinics for people with back trouble. But that’s not really your problem, is it? Q17MRS SMITH: If you want a doctor to visit you at home, you have to ask for a home visit.You’re supposed to do that before 10.30 in the morning, but obviously, if it’s an emergency,you can phone at any time, night or day. It might not be your doctor that comes, though.It’s quite often one of the other doctors in the practice.It doesn’t really seem to make much difference.Otherwise you make aim appointment to see your doctor at the health centre. You usually get seen the same day.Not always of course, but usually, as I Say. They hold surgeries between 9 and every weekday,and from 4 to Monday to Thursday. Saturdays are only for emergencies. Q18When the doctor sees you, he gives you a prescription. He writes what medication you need on it and you take it to a chemist’s shop. There’s one opposite the centre.If it’s for a child under 16. you don’t have to pay. So if it’s for Anna, there’s no problem.The same thing goes if you’re unemployed or retired, or if you’re pregna nt. Q19Just as well because it’s not cheap. You pay the same price for each item the doctor has prescribed.At the moment it’s something like £5 per item. Q20So you pay for the medication but the consultation with the doctor doesn’t cost you anything.It’s completely free as long as you’re a resident here. You’re going to be here for three years, aren’t you?So there shouldn’t be any question of you paying anything to see the doctor.So that’s one less problem to worry about,Look, Mrs. Sutton. If you want, I’ll sit with your daughter for half an hour if you want to go clown to the health centre to register. It’s no trouble really, don’t worry.MRS SUTTON: Are you sure you wouldn’t mind? That would really help me a lot, I’ll ask them if they can send someone round later to see Anna. I think I’ll try the Dean End Centre.MRS SMITH: Good idea. Don’t worry about Anna.MRS SUTTON: Right. I’ll be back as soon as I can.SECTION 3-1-3TUTOR: Hello. Jonathan Briggs, isn’t it?JB: Yes, that’s right.TUTOR: Do come in and sit clown.JB: Thanks.TUTOR: Right. Well, Jonathan, as we explained in your letter, in this part of tile interview we like to talk through your application form . . . your experience to date, etc. . . . and then in tile second partyou go for a group interview.JB:Group interview . . . yes, I understandTUTOR: So . . . your first degree was in Economics?JB:Yes, but I also did Politics as a major strand. Q21TUTOR: And you graduated in 1989. And I see you have been doing some teaching.JB: Yes, I worked as a volunteer teacher in West Africa. I was there for almost three years in total from 1990 to . . . ummm . . . 1992. Q22- Q23TUTOR: How interesting. What organisation was that with?JB:It’s not one of the major ones. It’s called Teach South. Q24TUTOR: Oh, right. Yes, I have heard of it. It operates in several African countries, doesn’t it?And what kind of school was it?JB: A rural co-operative. Q25TUTOR: Oh, a rural co-operative, how interesting . . . and what did you teach?JB: A variety of things in different years . . ummm . . . I did . . . with Forms I to 3 mainly Geography and some English with Form 5. Q26- Q27Then in my final year I took on some Agricultural Science with the top year . . . that’s Form 6. TUTOR: Right. Quite a variety then…JB: I also ran the school farm.TUTOR: How interestingTUTOR: . . . And how did you find the whole experience?JB: I’ll be honest with you. At the end of the first year I really wanted to leave and come home. TUTOR: Why was that?JB:Well. . . I was very homesick at first and missed my family... Q28 TUTOR: Umm. . I can quite understand that... and I also found it frustrating to have so few teaching resources, but I did decide to stay and in the end I extended my tour to a third year.TUTOR: Right. Things must have looked up then?JB:Yes. We set up a very successful project breeding cattle to sell locally.TUTOR: Really?JB:And then after a lot of hard work we finally got funds for new farm buildings.TUTOR: And you wanted to see things through?JB:Uh-huh.TUTOR: And is that why you want to train to teach Geography?JB:Yes. I’ve had a couple of jobs since then but I now realise I like teaching best.And I chose Geography because.. . because it is my favourite subject.. . and Q29also because I think it has so many useful applications.Q30TUTOR: Well.. . you certainly have had some interesting work experience.I’ll ask you now to go on to the next stage of…SECTION 3-1-4ANNOUNCER: Today’s Health Counsel is presented by Paula Clayburg, who is the chief Counsellor at Liverpool’s famous pain clinic: The Wilton Clinic. Paula….PAULA CLAYBURG: Do you know what Prince Charles, Seve Balesteros and Elizabeth Taylor have in common? They all suffer from chronic back pain. In fact, bad backs are one of the mostcommon health problems today, affecting people in all walks of life. The most recent availablefigures show that about a quarter of a million people are incapacitated withback pain every day. Q31 And many sufferers don’t know the cause or the solution o their problem.The majority of our patients at the clinic tend to be women. They are especially vulnerable because of pregnancy but also because of osteoporosis, which I personally believe to be the major cause of problems Q32 for women. I have many women patients who say they have completely given up exercise because the pain makes them so miserable. But of course that starts up a vicious circle. Bed rest, giving up exercise and pain killers are traditional responses to back pain but, although there are many excellent drugs on the market, at our clinic we are beginning to realise the unique benefits of relaxation therapy. Q33 Other specialists in the field make a strong case for certain types of exercise, but in our experience they are easily mishandled and can lead to more harm than good.Now, let’s look at some of the reasons why back pain is developing into such a unique menace.In general, the body is pretty good a self- repair. A strain or a blow to a limb, though painful at the time, generally resolves itself. But the body’s response to back injury can be very counter-productive.When pain strikes, we attempt to keep the back as immobile as possible, which makes the muscles tense up. Research shows that they often go into spasm, which causes further twisting of the spine. A vicious circle is underway. Q34 The second mistake we often make when stricken with extreme back pain is to go to bed and stay there. Although at the clinic we recognise that a short rest in bed can be helpful… up to two days.. . any longer Q35 makes our back muscles become weaker and unable to hold up our spine. The pain therefore becomes worse.Another problem is being overweight. Anyone a stone or more over- weight who already has back pain is not doing himself any favours: though it won’t actually set it off in the first place, the weight will increase the strain and make things worse. Q36The British diet could be partially to blame for the increase in back pain: over the last ten years the average weight of men has risen by 11 lbs and of women by 9 lbs. So much for the causes and aggravations of pain. But what can WE do to help?There are many ways in which simple day-to-day care can make all the difference. The first point to watch of course is weight. If you are overweight, a diet will make all the difference.Also, studies have shown that just one hour sitting in a slouched position can strain ligaments in the back which can take months to heal. At the clinic we have come to the conclusion that the major cause of the problem is not with the design of chairs, as some have suggested, but in the way WE sit in them.It can be useful to get special orthopaedic chairs, but remember the most important improvement should be in OUR posture. Q37Another enemy of your back is, of course, your beds. If your bed doesn’t give enough support,back muscles and ligaments work all night trying to correct spinal alignment, so you wake up with a tired aching back. Try out an orthopaedic mattress or a spring slatted bed. Research shows that both can be beneficial for certain types of back pain.Another hazard for your back are the shock waves which travel up your spine when you walk, known as heel strike. A real find for our patients has been the shock-absorbing shoe insert. A cheap but very effective solution. And you might be better off avoiding shoes with heels higher than 1 /2 inches.Q38Though absolutely flat shoes can be a solution for some, others find their posture suffers. Q39Finally a word about the state-of-the-art relief the TENS machine--a small battery-powered gadget which delivers subliminal electrical pulses to the skin.Our experience indicates that your money is better spent on the more old-fashioned remedies. Q40SECTION 3-2-1RECEPTIONIST: Sorry to keep you waiting. Well, firstly, let me give you this booklet.It tells you a bit more about the school, the courses and the social activities we offer.Now, on the first page, there’s an outline of this morning’s activities. There, you see?The programme starts at 10 o’clock. Try not to be late as it’s a very full day. Example At 10 o’clock, all the new students will gather in the Main Hall to meet the Principal and the rest of the staff In fact, you spend most of the morning in the Main Hall. QI STUDENT: Where’s that?RECEPTIONIST: I’ll show you in a minute. Just let me quickly run through this morning’s events first and then I’ll explain how to get there.STUDENT: Yes, OK.RECEPTIONIST: Right. Where were we? Yes, so, the Principal’s talk will last about fifteen minutes andthen the Director of Studies will talk to you for half an hour about the courses and the different Q2 requirements for each. After that, the Student Adviser will tell you about the various services and activities Q3we offer to students. Any questions?STUDENT: So, all of this is in the Main Hall?RECEPTIONIST: That’s right. And then you’ll go next door to Classroom 5 at 11 o’clock. Q4STUDENT: What happens there?RECEPTIONIST: You’ll have a test.STUDENT: Test? I don’t like the sound of that. What sort of test?RECEPTIONIST: Oh, it’s nothing to worry about. It’s just a placement test to help US find your level ofEnglish so that we can put you in the right class. It won’t last long. Q5STUDENT: But how do I find the Main Hall?RECEPTIONIST: Right; if you look on the back of the booklet I gave you, you’ll see a map of the school.Let me show you. Look; you came in through the Main Entrance, here, and now we’re here at Reception.Now, to get to the Main Hall, you walk on to the end of this corridor in front of you and then you turn left. Walk along past the Language Laboratory and then past the Library, which is next to the Language Lab. on the same side, and facing you is the Main Hall, at the end of the corridor. You can’t miss it. Q6STUDENT: So it’s next to the Library, in fact. Q7RECEPTIONIST: Yes, that’s right.STUDENT: I should be able to find that. And do you have a Computer Laboratory?RECEPTIONIST: Yes, we do.STUDENT:Could you tell me where that is?RECEPTIONIST: Certainly, yes. You go down to the end of this corridor again but, this time, don’t turn left;turn right, away from the Main Hall. The Computer Lab. is immediately on your right. OK? Q8STUDENT: And where’s the stall room, in case I need to find a teacher at some stage?RECEPTIONIST:The staff room is near the main entrance, on the left over there, just opposite theReception desk. In a day or two, I’m sure you’ll find your way around very easily. Q9STUDENT:Oh, one last thing. Is there a student common room?RECEPTIONIST: Oh yes, I forgot to mention that. It’s this area here, very close to where we are now, Q10to the right of the Reception desk as you come in the main entrance. There’s tea and coffee facilities there. STUDENT: Great. Thank you very much.RECEPTIONIST: You’re welcome.SECTION 3-2-2Hello, everybody and welcome to this informal meeting about the University Helpline. The Helpline was set up ten years ago by the Students Union and it aims to provide new students to the university with a service that they can use if they need information about practical areas of student life that they are unfamiliar with.Let me give you some examples of the type of help we can offer. We can provide information on financial matters; for example, you may feel that your grant is insufficient to sec you through college life or you may have some queries regarding the fees you are paying if you are an overseas student. Q11In both cases, the Helpline would be able to go through things with you and sec what the outcome might be. Another area we can help with is what we generally term the `domestic’ area things such as childcare Q12and the availability of nursery provision, for example, come under this, Then there’s `academic’ issues that may arise while you are in the early stages of your course that you may not know what to do about.You may wish to know more about essay deadlines, Q13for example, or how to use the library--there are all kinds of questions you will find yourself asking and not knowing where to get quick answers from. The Helpline would be able to provide these.The last example I’ve given here is simply termed `social’--and yes, there is a lot of social life here! Q14But you may have a particular interest you wish to pursue or you may wish to participate in outings or trips if you don’t know many people at the moment. Q15 Let me give you some details so that you know where to go and who to see if you want to pay us a visit. Generally you will see our Helpline officer Jackie Kouachi, that’s K-O-U-A- C-H-I. Q16Jackie is a full-time employee of the Student Union and she works in the Student Welfare Office--that’s the office that deals with all matters related to student welfare and it’s located at 13 Marshall Road.I have some maps here for those of you who haven’t been there yet.If you wish to ring the office, the number is 32699 40. Q17 That’s 3269940. The office is open between and on weekdays and from 10 to 4 on Saturdays Q18and there’ll be somebody there--usually Jackie or myself--between those times.If you want to make an appointment you can phone or call at the office in person. Q19 Please note that it may not be possible for anyone to see you straight away--particularly if it is a busytime--lunch time for example--and you may have to go on the waiting list and then come back later. Q20 Well, enough from me. Any questions?SECTION 3-2-3TUTOR: Good morning. So, we’ve looked at various aspects of staff selection this term and I think by now you should all be beginning to see how much more there is to it than just putting applicants througha short interview or asking the `right’ questions. So I think you should be ready for today’s tutorialon `matching the person to the job’.We’re going to talk today about the importance of choosing that all round `right’ person. Q21 MURIEL: Right. So we have to put ourselves into the role of the manager or supervisor?TUTOR: Yes. And then we’re going to imagine how different applicants would fit into the team or group they have to work with.. . er.. . we’ll look at some examples later,MURIEL: It’s just theoretical at the momentTUTOR: Yes. The point is, you can select someone--even a friend--who has all the right qualifications . . .degrees . . . certificates, whatever. You can also check that they have a lot of experience…that they’ve done the sort of tasks that you want them to do in your office already,in a similar environment. But if they startwork and you realise that they just don’t get along witheverybody else, that.. say, they’ve got sharply contrasting views on how something will work . . .well, with the best will in the world, you may be backing a loser. Q22DAVE: Wouldn’t it be just a question of company training, though?TUTOR: Not always. Particularly in a team situation, and 1 think it’s important to think in terms of that type of working environment. People have to have faith in each other’s ability to carry outthe task their boss has set them. They have to trust that everyone will do their part of the job, Q23and you can’t necessarily train people for this.DAVE: But it’s like trying to find out what someone’s personality is like in a job interview . . .I mean you just can’t do that. Even if you try, you won’t find out what they’re really likeuntil they actually start work.TUTOR: Well, in most interviews you usually ask candidates questions about theirhobbies and what they like doing in their spare time . . . that sort of thing . . . so employers are alreadyinvolved in the practice of. . . well, doing part of the task. Q24 DAVE: But it doesn’t tell you anything. It doesn’t tell you if they’re easy-going or hate smokers or whatever. TUTOR: Well, arguably it does give you a bit of information about an applicant’s character.TUTOR: Well, arguably it does give you a bit of information about an applicant’s character,but also . . more and more employers around the world are making use of what arecalled `personality questionnaires’ to help them select new staff and…MURIEL: What’s it called?TUTOR: A Personality Questionnaire. They have to be filled out by the candidates some time during the selection procedure, often just before aim interview. Q25The idea is actually quite old, Apparently they were used by the ancient Chinese for picking out Q26clerks and civil servants, and then later they were used by the military to put people Q27in appropriate areas of work. They’ve gained a lot of ground since then and there are about 80,000different tests available now and almost two thirds of the large employers use them. Q28 MURIEL: Which makes you think that there must be something in them.TUTOR: That’s right. They ask the sort of questions that you might expect, like do you like workingunder pressure or are you good at keeping deadlines.DAVE: And what if people can see through them and just write what they think the employer wants to see? MURIEL: Well that’s always a possibility.DAVE: I mean, it’s human nature to lie, isn’t it?TUTOR: Well, that’s the point. Apparently it isn’t. These tests are compiled by experts and Q29 they believe that the answers can provide a few simple indicators as to roughly the type ofperson that you are . . . that people will generally be truthful in that situation.MURIEL: And then you can go some way towards finding out whether someone’s say,forward-looking . . . a go-ahead type of person . . . or resistant to change.TUTOR: Yes. And there are all kinds of (fade out)SECTION 3-2-4TUTOR: Right. Are we all here? OK. As you know, today Vivien is going to do a presentation Example on the hat-making project she did with her class during her last teaching practice.So, over to you, Vivien.VIVIEN: Thanks. Urn . . . Mr. Yardley has asked me to describe to you the project I did as a student teacher at a secondary school in London. I was at this school for six weeks and I taught a variety of subjectsto a class of fourteen-year-old pupils. Q31-Q32 The project I chose to do was a hat-making project and I think this project could easily be adapted to suit any age. So, to explain the project…After we’d done the research, we went back to the classroom to make two basic hat shapes using rolls of old wallpaper. We each made, first of all, a conical hat by . . . er . . . if I show you now . . .cutting out a circle and then making one cut up to the centre and then… er…overlapping the cut like this… Q33 a conical hat that sits on your head. The other hat we made was a little more complicated . . . er… first of all we cut out a circle again . . . like this …then you need a long piece with flaps on it--I’ve already made that bitwhich I have here--you bend the flaps over and stick them … with glue or prittstick… to the underside of the circle . . . like this. . Again, I’ve prepared this so that I don’t get glue everywhere. Q34The pupils do, of course, so you need plenty of covers for the table. And there you have a pillbox hat as in pill and box. Now variations and combinations of these two hat shapes formed the basis of the pupils’ final designs.The next stage of the project was the design phase and this involved, first of all, Q35using their pages of research to draw a design of their hat on paper. That’s the easy part.They then had to translate their two-dimensional design into a form to fit their head.I encouraged them to make a small-scale, three-dimensional hat first so that they could experiment with Q36how to achieve the form they required and I imposed certain constraints on them to keep things simple.For example, they had to use paper not card. Paper is more pliable and easier to handle.They also had to limit their colours to white, grey or brown shades of paper which reflected the colours of Q37the buildings they were using as a model for their hats and they had to make sure their glue didn’t show!Well, it was very enjoyable and just to give you an idea of what they produced, I’ve brought along three hats to show you. This one here is based on a circular stairway in an old building in London. Q38It uses three pillbox hats one on top of the other. This was designed by Theresa. Q39Here’s another one that has a simple strip going round the base of the hat but has then gone on to add strips of paper that come out from the base and that meet at the top of the hat--rather like a crown--making a fairly tall hat. This was made by Muriel.And lastly there’s a combination of the pillbox or single strip around the base and then the conical hat shape on top to form a castle turret. This was made by Fabrice, and there are many more that I could have brought. Q40 TUTOR: Thank you, Vivien. That was most interesting. Now what we can learn from this is that…SECTION 3-3-1JOAN: Right. . . let’s try and get it sorted out today so we don’t have it hanging over us. OK?PETER: Good idea, I’ll take notes.JOA N: First thing. . . numbers. . . have we got anything definite?PETER: Well . . . I’ve been working it out and I think 40 to 43.。
