    Good morning. MIC House Agency.
    Good morning. I''m ringing about the problems I''ve been having with my apartment.
    Example
    Yes, of course. If I can just take a few details first... What''s your name? Paul Smiley. How do you spell that?
    S-M-I-L-E-Y.
    Q1
    OK, and what''s the address? Apartment 2, 16 Rose Lane. Rose Lane... and that''s in ... ?
    In Newton.
    Q2
    Oh yes, I know the property. Could I just ask how long is the lease? It''s for one year. And you moved in . ? Last week, on 27th June. Fine, thank you.
    And what are the problems that you''ve been having?
    Well, no one thing is really dangerous or anything, but you know, it''s just been building up.
    Yes, of course.
    Well the first thing is the washing machine. It''s been leaking a little and it''s
    beginning to get worse. Because we have a small child, we really need to get that Example
    done straight away.
    OK... that''s a washing machine for immediate repair. And then there''s a niggling problem with the cooker...
    Ah ha...
    The door''s broken. Q3
    Right.
    It''s nothing serious and it can be used, but if you can send someone over in the Q4 next couple of weeks or so that''d be great. Fine, I''ve got that.
    Then we are worried about all the windows. Are they broken?
    No, but there are no locks on them ... and you know with the insurance these Q5 days...
    And when would you like those done?
    PAUL Oh, that''s not really urgent .. . but you never know when there''s going to be a
    break-in...
    AGENT No, we''ll get those done for you next week, don''t worry.
    PAUL And then there''s the bathroom light . . it''s getting quite annoying. It flickers Q6 quite badly and it''s giving me headaches. I''d really like to get that replaced right Q7 away.
    AGENT That''s no problem.
    PAUL And then the last thing on the list is the kitchen curtains. They''re torn. Q8
    AGENT Oh, right. We do have quite a few spare ones in stock and can get those to you Q9
    in the next week, if that''s alright with you? PAUL Yes, that''d be fine. AGENT Anything else? PAUL No, that''s all.
    AGENT OK, fine. What we''ll do is get someone over to you this afternoon, if you''re in. PAUL Well, I''m going to be out for a short time. AGENT Well you tell us your preferred times.
    PAUL Well the best time is about 1.00. Q10
    AGENT I''ll have to check that with him. And if he can''t make it then, what would be your second preference?
    PAUL Any time up to 5 pm would be fine. Q10
    AGENT OK, I''ve made a note of that.
    PAUL Great, well thanks very much for your help.
    AGENT That''s fine. Thank you for calling.
    PAUL Goodbye.
    AGENT Goodbye.
    and takes you to different parts of the rainforest. Or, if you''d prefer, there''s the Four- Q13
    Wheel-Drive tour to the waterfalls, or the fishing trip where I promise you we''ll catch some lunch, and last but not least, the famous Crocodile Cruise that leaves at 11 am each day. Q14 (Just in time for the crocodile''s lunch!) Plenty to choose from here at Rainforest Lodge or just sit on your balcony, relax and unwind and enjoy the views. In the evenings there is the Spotlight Tour, one of my favourites. The Spotlight Tour leaves at sundown and lets you QI5 catch a glimpse of some more of the rainforest''s wildlife as it comes out at dusk to feed. That''s a great trip and if you can, I''d really try to make sure you do it during your stay.
    SECTION 2
    RECREATION OFFICER
    Great. Well, hi, everyone! My name''s Jody and I''m one of the four recreation officers here at Rainforest Lodge. My job is to make sure that you all have a great stay here with us and go away feeling relaxed and refreshed. As you can see, we''re literally in the middle of nowhere at the Lodge. There are no newspapers or TVs and there''s only one phone and that''s in the office. The Lodge is a complete ''getaway from it all'' experience: a place to unwind and appreciate the world without a lot of interruptions and distractions.
    From your cabin balcony you''ll find that you can''t see anyone else and the only noise you should hear is the birds. When the luggage comes, one of the guys will take it across to your cabin for you and make sure you know the way back here to the main centre for dinner in the restaurant. Dinner will be served in about an hour or so.
    All the times of each day''s activities are printed on the blue sheet you should have got in the information guides that were handed out on the coach. Each Explorer trip has a different focus, so it doesn''t matter how many you do or on what day, because there''s always something new to discover in the rainforest.
    Tomorrow 1 think we''ve still got places on the Orchid and Fungi Tour. This is on foot

    Q11
    Q12

    COUNSELLOR Hello, John, What can I do for you?
    JOHN Well, I heard about these counselling sessions from a friend doing a science
    course and I was really interested. I think they should be compulsory really.
    COUNSELLOR Well to be quite honest, John, I think they wouldbe useful for everybody
    but well, everybody has their own way of going about things. I prefer Q21
    people just to drop in when they can.
    JOHN Yes.
    COUNSELLOR I find that talking to students about the requirements of a course helps to clarify what needs to be done. I mean the biggest difference between college and school is that new college students really have to do a lot ofwork on Q22 their own, and it''s sometimes useful to get advice on how to take control of your time and work effectively.
    JOHN Yes. I mean, it seems like a very light workload until assignment time
    comes and then I seem to be working all night sometimes. I''m not the only one. It''s ridiculous. The resource centre is very good but it closes so early. Q23 It''s in the library and so you''d think you could use it more. It''s a real problem for me.
    COUNSELLOR Well, you''re certainly not the only person in that position, as I''m sure you''ve found. It really comes down to using every available hour in a


    systematic way. If you do this with a plan, then you''ll find that you still Q24
    have time for yourself and your hobbies as well.
    JOHN Yeah. I''ve heard from Thomas that you made him a sort of plan like this,
    and he''s going away for the weekend with all his work handed in, whereas I haven''t even started.
    COUNSELLOR I need to find out a few more things about you first. I''ll give you this form Q25 to fill in about your lectures and things before you leave.
    COUNSELLOR Now, what are your main problems?
    JOHN Well, what most concerns me is I''m still not doing very well in my
    assignments.
    COUNSELLOR Well, I know that you plan your writing carefully, but this can come to nothing if the assignment doesn''t answer the question. That really is the key. You must read the question carefully and give it a great deal of thought before you even start planning or writing your first draft. It''s also Q26 vital to check your work for errors. Everybody makes them, and they can influence the person marking the work. So, always take time at the end to Q26 check what you have written.
    JOHN As far as listening is concerned, I find it hard to keep up sometimes in
    lectures, especially two-hour ones. I sometimes just seem to go off into a dream.
    COUNSELLOR It''s a good idea to find out from your lecturers if they mind you recording Q27
    the lectures. You only need one of those small cassette recorders. The
    quality is pretty good and a second listening can really clarify things.
    Something else you can do is check your notes with a friend after the
    You''ve chosen to visit the rainforest in March, which is just at the end of the wet season,
    so you''ll soon notice how well the waterfalls are running and also how damp the ground is.
    Things can tend to get a bit slippery, too, so if you didn''t bring any walking boots I''d Q16
    advise you to hire some from the office. You''ll also be much better off in long trousers Q17
    rather than shorts because they will give your legs more protection, and socks are a good Q18 idea too.
    There''s no need to be nervous of the rainforest provided that you treat it with respect
    and common sense. Most of the animals and wildlife are gentle and harmless. There are Q19
    some venomous snakes to beware of, but really they''re much more frightened of you than
    you are of them. The other thing is that certain plants can cause irritation if you touch Q20
    them with bare skin.
    Well, that''s about all for the time being. The guys are here to take you and your luggage to the cabins

    quality is pretty good and a second listening can really clarify things.
    Something else you can do is check your notes with a friend after the Q28
    JOHN Yes. That''s a good idea. Thanks. It''s hard to do all that all the time though,
    especially when there''s so much reading to do. COUNSELLOR Yes. It''s important, though, not to confine yourself to reading on your
    subject. You should also read things of general interest that appeal to you. Q29
    You know, novels, newspapers, that kind of thing. Do you have a good Q30
    dictionary?
    JOHN Not really. I''ve never bothered with one
    COUNSELLOR Mmmm. It would probably be a good idea to get one. Dictionaries are not Q30 expensive and they can help a lot. Also you can underline or highlight new words and ...
    I had been interested and horrified by several newspaper reports on what people Q31 call ''road rage''. For example the famous incident of a man getting out of his car in a car park and hitting the driver of a van who had overtaken him earlier. It seemed to me that there were almost as many serious problems when cars were parked ... i.e. were stationary ... as when they were travelling at 90 miles an hour. So I decided to make this the focus of the project.
    For our research we depended mainly on talking to individuals, asking them Q32
    questions rather than using written questionnaires. We stopped people at a
    selected garage on the motorway over a two-day period, and asked them
    questions about what they''d observed or experienced themselves. Our
    respondents were both men and women, but the women were just slightly in the Q33
    majority. We were pleased by the public''s willingness to stop and chat to us ... in
    the end we talked to a total of 135 drivers over those two days. Q34
    So what were our findings? Well, as you can see, 93% of respondents had had
    some kind of problem. A surprisingly large percentage - 24% had had their car
    damaged in some way, but the main type of incident was being shouted Q35
    at - 79% had experienced that. 15% had experienced violence on their own persons ... they''d actually been hit by someone. The police tended only to be informed when there was physical violence involved.
    So what strategies had people developed to ensure their own safety? Let''s have a
    look at the figures here. Well, first of all, it was quite striking that there were often
    distinct answers from the men and women. It was mainly women, for example, Example
    who said one shouldn''t ever stop to find out how to get somewhere. Whereas it
    SECTION 4
    TUTOR Well, good afternoon. In today''s session John Upton will be sharing some of the findings of his research project from last term. John ...
    JOHN Thanks. Well, first of all, a little bit about the background to the project. Our
    title, as you can see, is pretty straightforward: ''car safety''. But these days there''s a lot more to it than the usual injunctions about drinking and driving or speeding.
    was men who said you should try to avoid looking directly at other drivers. Both Q36
    men and ... oh sorry no... it was women who said you had to tell someone Q37
    when you were due to get to a particular destination. Then, I had thought that it
    would be mainly men, but both ***es made the point that it''s much safer to get Q38
    keys out well in advance as you go towards your car. Men were very aware that
    muggers or whatever might be concealed behind the car. They also made the Q39
    point that you should leave plenty of room when you park your car so you can make a quick getaway if you need to. Finally, locking doors at all times ... men didn''t think it was quite as important as women, but both gave it a high safety Q40 rating.
    When we asked them what they thought the best improvements had been in the last five years in helping with road rage problems ...

    Đây là bài Listening 1 và 2 của lớp E38:
    SECTION 1
    R = Receptionist
    W = Woman
    P = Police Officer
    R: Good evening, City Police Station. Can I help you?
    W: Oh hello, I''''d like to report a stolen briefcase, please. Example
    R: Just a minute and I''''ll put you through.
    Repeat
    P: Lost property. Can I help you?
    W: Oh, yes. I''''ve had my briefcase stolen.
    P: OK ... I''''ll take some details ... Tell me what it looks like, first of all.
    W: Well ... it''''s a soft leather one, you know, not a heavy box-type like a man''''s.
    P: Mmm ... and how does it close?
    W: It''''s got buckles at the front ... two of them They''''re gold-plated ones. Q1
    P: Fine . Was it locked?
    W: No, I''''m afraid not.
    P: Never mind. Any distinguishing features?
    W: Pardon?
    P: Any marks or badges on it that make it stand out? W: Only the brand name. P: And where''''s that?
    W: It''''s on the back ... at the bottom in the left-hand corner. It''''s Sagi. Oh and Q2
    there''''s a scratch ... it''''s quite bad but small ... directly above the brand
    name. I did it recently putting it on my bike. P: Right, got that. So, what did you have inside the briefcase? W: Well all my papers from college. It''''s so frustrating but, thank goodness for
    computers, I haven''''t lost them completely! P: Yes, you''''re lucky.
    W: I had my wallet in my pocket so I didn''''t lose that but there were also my pens Q3
    which I got for my birthday and a novel I was planning to read on the train. P: Right. Where exactly did you lose the briefcase?
    W: Well ... I couldn''''t believe it. I was standing on the platform ... it was right
    next to me. P: You were holding it?
    W: I''''d just put it down on the floor but I could almost feel it beside me. I was Q4
    watching for my tram because sometimes it comes early and then next time I
    looked, my briefcase wasn''''t there. P: And what time was this?
    W: Ah ... it was ... it must have been about 5.20 ... no a bit later. I''''d say 5.30 Q5

    because it was just getting crowded and the train normally comes at about twenty-five to six.
    P: Right, if you''''ll just give me some personal details ...
    W: Yes.
    P: What name is it? W: I''''m Mary Prescott. P: Can you spell that?

    W: I''''m not sure. Well, the briefcase itself is quite new; I bought it last month for
    £40. I suppose about £65. The contents are worth about 20 or 25 pounds at Q10
    least.
    P: That''''s fine. Well, if you could come down to the station tomorrow, you can
    sign this form and have a look at what we''''ve got here. W: OK, thanks. ''''Bye. P: Goodbye.
    SECTION 2
    Newsreader: This is the 6 o''''clock news for Tuesday 25 November. And first the headlines:
    The Prime Minister has promised to help the drought stricken farmers in the Example
    northern part of the country who haven''''t seen rain for nearly two years. And in
    Sydney a group of school children are successfully rescued from a plane which Q11
    landed in the sea shortly after take-off. Transport workers are on strike in
    Melbourne over a pay claim and the strike looks set to spread to other states. And Q12
    on a fashionable note, there s to be a new look for the staff of QANTAS, Q13
    Australia''''s national airline.
    The Prime Minister has pledged today that he will make two hundred and fifty Q14
    million dollars available to help the drought stricken farmers who have not seen
    ram for years, get through the next five years. Money that was to have been spent
    on the re-structuring of Sydney''''s road system has been re-allocated to what the Q15
    P:rime Minister described as ''''a more worthy cause''''. Farmers are to receive
    financial assistance to help see them through the worst drought in over 50 years.
    Many farmers feel that while the money is welcome it has come too late to save Q16
    them and their farms from financial ruin and are angry that the government did not act sooner.
    A group of school children who were travelling in a privately chartered Q17
    aeroplane from Sydney to Queensland to take part in a musical concert found
    themselves swimming for the shore when their aeroplane had to land in the sea
    just three minutes after taking off from Sydney airport. The pilot managed to Q18
    bring the aircraft and its 50 passengers down safely in the calm waters of Botany
    Bay where boats and pleasurecraft were able to come to the rescue of the boys. Q19
    The fact that it was a weekend meant that there were hundreds of boats in
    the bay enjoying the good weather and this undoubtedly helped the rescue
    operation. ''''We owe our lives to the skill of the pilot,'''' said one of the boys, but the Q20
    pilot replied modestly that it was ''''all part of a day''''s work''''. However, all their Q21
    musical instruments were lost and they never got to play at their concert.
    SECTION 3
    M = male student F = female lecturer
    M: Hello can I come in?
    F: Oh yes, come in. How can I help you?
    M: I was looking for the Economics office. I''''ve been all over the Arts Faculty Example
    building looking for it but I could only find the School of Accounting and Economic History. Is this the right place?
    F: Yes this is the School of Economics.
    M: Oh good. Um, I''''m a new student and I was wondering if someone could give
    me some information. F: Well I might be able to help. I lecture on that program. What do you need to
    Know?
    M: Quite a few things, actually. Firstly, how many lectures a week do I have to Attend?
    F: Ah, well, the Economics I course is a double unit so there are two lectures a week and one tutorial. The lectures are scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday. M: What time?
    F: Let me see ... You know this information is all in the handout which you Q22
    should have received yesterday at the orientation meeting. M: Oh, was there a meeting yesterday? I didn''''t know about that ... no one mentioned ... F: Yes, there was, but never mind. Now lectures are at four m the afternoon. M: Four''''s a bit late. I''''ve got a part time job that starts at four thirty.
    F: Well, you can''''t be in two places at once, can you, and attendance at lectures Q23
    is necessary. We expect at least 90% attendance at this university you know. M: 90%! That''''s high. Do they enforce that rule? F: Yes, we do. We''''re pretty strict about it actually.
    M: And what times have been set down for the tutorials ?" do you have that Information?
    F: That''''s a very well attended course so there''''s a number of tutorial times.
    Monday, Wednesday and Friday, all at 9 o''''clock. Yours will be allocated at Q24
    the first lecture. M: Can''''t I choose the time?
    F: Maybe, maybe not.. You''''ll have to talk to the lecturer on the course. Q25
    Dr. Roberts is his name. M: Oh, OK.
    F: Anything else I can help you with while you''''re here?
    M: Well, yes, actually. Do you know what the course requirements are? I mean,
    how much work is expected for this course? F: Well, you have to complete a tutorial paper. M: What does that involve?
    F: Well, it''''s a piece of work on a given topic based on some set reading texts.
    You''''ll have to give a small talk to your tutorial group ... Q26
    M: How long does that have to be? F: Oh, about 25 minutes usually. M: I have to talk for 25 minutes?
    F: Yes, that''''s right. And then you have to write up your piece of work and give Q27
    it to the lecturer to be marked. M: Right. And is that all?
    F: No. You also have to complete a 3,000 word essay on a topic. M: Can I choose the topic?
    F: Yes, usually you can. Q28
    M: Right. That shouldn''''t be too bad.
    F: And in ad***ion to that there is an exam.
    M: An exam! What sort of exam?
    F: Well, it''''s an open book exam. Q29
    M: Does that mean I can have the text book with me during the exam? F: Yes, that''''s right.
    M: And can you give me any idea about the content of the first year of
    Economics so that I can get into some reading? F: Well, you''''ll be getting the reading list next week when lectures start. All the
    books are in the library. M: Yes, but won''''t everyone else take them out as soon as they get the reading
    list too?
    F: Well, yes, they might. But most of the important ones are held in Closed Q30
    Reserve ... that''''s a part of the library where you can go to read books but you can''''t take them out of the building.
    M: What did you call that section of the library?
    F: Closed Reserve. However, we do recommend that you buy the core books.
    You''''ll find them useful and you''''ll need them for the exam. M: Yes, I suppose I will. But what is the focus of the course?
    F: Well, the course at this university has a vocational focus, that is a focus on Q31
    preparing its graduates for work, so we''''re orientated very much towards employment.
    M: So my chances of getting a job are good?
    F: Well, provided you get good results.
    M: Well look thanks for your time. You''''ve been really helpful.
    F: That''''s fine. See you next week then.
    SECTION 4
    Lecturer:
    Good morning and welcome to the University of Westlands. My name is Marcia
    Mayhew and I''''m the co-ordmator of the Bachelor of Social Science degree. This
    morning I''''d like to tell you about the structure of the university and about some
    of the requirements of the degree that you''''re about to enter. The Bachelor of
    Social Science is in one faculty within the university, that is the faculty where I Q32
    work, known as Arts and Social Sciences. Here on this campus we also have the faculties of Architecture, Law and Science and Technology among others. It''''s important to know something about the structure of the faculty because, as you go through your course, you may need to call on members of the staff to help you.
    At the top of the faculty we have a dean and below the dean we have three Q33
    divisions; each division has a divisional head and your degree is located in the
    Division of Social Sciences. Within each of the divisions, there are the departments
    and each of these offers the different degrees. For instance two of the departments
    which offer the major subjects for your award are Sociology and Psychology. Each
    has a departmental head but for practical purposes the people you are going to
    see the most of are myself as co-ordinator of the social sciences degree and the
    actual lecturers who are teaching the subjects that you are taking. For instance in
    the first semester you''''ll be doing four subjects psychology sociology history and Q34
    economics.
    If you have any problems or difficulties, not that I''''m anticipating you will, but
    you never know, then you should go and see your lecturers. For instance, you
    may find that you can''''t meet a deadline for an essay or perhaps you re having Q35
    problems with attendance. These seem to be the two most common problems that Q36
    students face.
    If your lecturers are unavailable, you can always come and see me in my office.
    I''''m available on Wednesday and Thursday mornings and on Friday afternoons Q37
    Outside these hours, perhaps you could ring the secretary and make an appointment.
    Now you''''ll note that all of the subjects which you undertake in the first year
    are composed of lectures and tutorials. A lecture is about an hour long and a
    tutorial usually runs for about two hours. A lecture is rather like what I am doing
    now where one person will talk to all of you together on a subject. We do ask you
    to try to attend the lectures.
    A tutorial is perhaps where most of the learning occurs at a university. You will
    be divided into groups of between 12 and 15 students and each week one of you
    will have to present a piece of work to the group as a whole and then the group
    will discuss what you''''ve said. It''''s this discussion, this exchange of ideas, which Q38
    really constitutes the basis of university learning, in my view. Listening to lectures
    in many ways is just giving you information that you could access for yourself in
    the library but the discussion at the tutorial is very important. This doesn''''t mean that you shouldn''''t go to the lectures though!
    Other factors to be particularly concerned about are the structure of essays and
    delivery of written material and in particular I would like to mention the question
    of plagiarism. Plagiarism is taking other people''''s work without acknowledging it,
    that is, without saying where it comes from. Of course all essays are based on
    research done by other people but you must remember to attribute the work to the Q39
    original writer. And while it''''s a good idea to work with other people don''''t hand
    in work which is exactly the same as your friend''''s work because we will notice! If
    you don''''t acknowledge the source of your information then you run the risk of Q40
    failing the subject or in very serious cases you might be denied entry to the university.
    Last but not least, stay in touch with us. If things are getting you down, don''''t Q41 tests
    go and hide. Come and talk to us about it. That''''s what we are here for. Right, global
    thank you very much for coming along today. under-
