[00:12.78]Exercise One

[00:13.65]Conversation One

[00:15.62]W: Hello, I’m Jenny Johnson. How are you this morning?

[00:19.99]M: Hello, Doctor Johnson. I can’t say I’m feeling well.

[00:24.15]I have a pain and swelling 1 in my knee.

[00:26.45]W: What kind of pain is it?

[00:28.52]M: It is a dull ache. But sometimes the pain is constant, and disturbs my sleep.

[00:32.90]W: How long have you been feeling pain in your knee?

[00:36.18]M: For about two years. But recently, I feel pain in my fingers.

[00:39.46]W: Have you had any swelling in your fingers?

[00:43.18]M: Yes, a little.

[00:44.82]W: How about your wrist or toes?

[00:46.24]M: No, only my knees and fingers. The pain becomes worse when the weather changes,

[00:52.15]like in cloudy or wet weather.

[00:54.12]W: O.K. Let me see your blood test report first.

[00:57.84]M: How is it?

[00:59.70]W: Not bad.

[01:01.33]M: Do I have to have an operation?

[01:03.08]W: No, I don’t think so. I’ll prescribe some Chinese traditional medicine. Also you need a

[01:09.79]treatment with rays below the red in the spectrum 2.

[01:12.96]M: Do I have to come here every day for the treatment?

[01:15.69]W: Not every day. Can you come three times a week? A course of treatment includes 20 times,

[01:20.40]so you have to come for the treatment 3 times a week for 7 weeks.

[01:25.76]M: How long does each treatment take?

[01:29.04]W: 30 minutes.

[01:30.14]M: O.K. I’ll do that.

[01:32.22]W: When you are at home, use these hot water pads as often as possible.

[01:36.81]Put it over your knees. Try to avoid using cold water.

[01:41.62]M: O.K. Thank you, Doctor.

[01:43.58]W: You’re welcome.

[01:45.12]Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[01:50.59]19. What is the problem with the man?

[02:09.63]20. How does the woman treat the man’s problem?

[02:29.39]21. What does the doctor suggest the man do at home?

[02:52.66]Conversation Two

[02:54.42]M: So what’s your trouble?

[02:56.40]W: Well, doctor, my biggest problem is that I’m having trouble sleeping.

[03:01.54]M: Have you tried any of the sleeping medications available?

[03:04.20]W: I’ve tried one or two, but they don’t seem to help.

[03:08.47]M: How long have you had this problem?

[03:10.76]W: Three or four months.

[03:12.95]M: Are you suffering from an unusual level of stress in your life lately?

[03:17.21]W: Not more than usual. My biggest worry is the fact that I can’t sleep.

[03:22.24]M: Well, some people don’t need as much sleep as others.

[03:26.40]W: But I feel tired all day, so it is a problem for me.

[03:30.45]M: Have you been experiencing any other symptoms?

[03:33.54]W: I’ve also had a lot of indigestion lately.

[03:38.14]M: Well, you are a little overweight, aren’t you?

[03:40.87]W: Yes. And I’ve gained about seven kilograms this past year.

[03:45.46]M: Well, physical activity is very important for you.

[03:49.07]W: So what do you recommend, Doctor?

[03:52.46]M: I will give you some medication for your insomnia 3 and your indigestion.

[03:56.29]But I also recommend that you begin a regular exercise program.

[04:01.47]W: But I have neither the time nor the money to go to a gym.

[04:05.82]M: You don’t need to go to a gym. A simple walking program would be very beneficial for you.

[04:11.32]I think you’ll find that diet and exercise will be very helpful in taking care of your recent complaints.

[04:17.02]Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[04:23.14]22. What is the main problem of the patient?

[04:43.72]23. According to the doctor, what is probably the most appropriate way for the woman to keep fit?

[05:07.19]24. What is the doctor’s advice to the patient?

[05:28.12]25. What can be inferred from the conversation?

[05:47.63]Exercise two

[05:49.90]Conversation One

[05:53.21]W: Good morning. Can I help you?

[05:55.51]M: Yes, please. I’m a new student and I’d like to have some information about the accommodation.

[06:02.18]W: Right. The university provides two types of accommodation,

[06:06.88]halls of residence and selfcatering accommodation.

[06:10.71]M: How much does it cost for the self-catering accommodation?

[06:15.74]W: For a single room, thirty-seven pounds eighty-six per week, that’s about five forty one a day.

[06:23.29]For a double room, it’s fifty-two per week.

[06:26.57]M: I’d like the self-catering accommodation. How far is that from the residence to the university?

[06:33.57]W: It all depends. The residence at 110 Palm Street is about one and a half miles

[06:39.80]and the Freemen’s Common Houses at William Road are about half a mile.

[06:44.18]M: When do I need to apply?

[06:46.80]W: Are you an undergraduate or a postgraduate 4?

[06:49.65]M: Undergraduate.

[06:51.20]W: Then you should apply for it as soon as possible,

[06:53.83]since places in university-owned accommodation are limited

[06:57.98]and if you don’t apply before the end of the month, you are not likely to get a place.

[07:02.47]M: Could you possibly tell me what to do, if no vacancy 5 is available?

[07:07.94]W: Yes, you may consider private accommodation.

[07:11.33]The university runs an Accommodation Information Office and its staff will help you.

[07:17.23]M: Where’s the office?

[07:18.98]W: In the Students’ Union Building.

[07:20.85]M: Whom can I contact?

[07:22.27]W: Mr. Underwood. David Underwood, the manager of the Accommodation Information Office.

[07:27.73]M: Thanks a lot.

[07:29.82]W: My pleasure.

[07:30.27]Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[07:36.05]19. What does the conversation mainly tell us?

[07:55.95]20. How much does a single room cost per day for the selfcatering accommodation?

[08:20.04]21. When does a student need to apply if he or she wants a universityowned accommodation?

[08:44.21]22. What can be inferred from the conversation?

[09:04.62]Conversation Two

[09:07.47]M: Did you hear about the air crash that occurred in South America recently?

[09:12.21] It was quite a tragic 6 accident!

[09:14.95]W: No, I didn’t see anything in the news about it. What happened?

[09:19.80]M: A foreign airliner 7 was attempting to land at night in a mountainous area

[09:24.17]of Argentina and flew into a hill!

[09:27.13]W: That sounds really terrible! Did anyone survive?

[09:31.29]M: No, everyone aboard, including the crew, was killed instantly.

[09:37.52]W: What were the circumstances? Were there bad weather, a fire, or engine failure?

[09:43.20]M: Apparently 8, there were some low clouds in the area,

[09:46.71]but mostly it was just miscommunication between the pilots and the air traffic controllers.

[09:52.06]W: Weren’t they both speaking in English, the official international aviation language?

[09:57.54]M: Yes, they were. But the transmission from poor quality radios was slightly distorted

[10:03.99]and the accents of the Spanish speaking controllers were so strong that

[10:08.25] the pilots misunderstood a vital instruction.

[10:12.81]W: How could a misunderstanding like that caused such a serious accident?

[10:17.96]M: The pilots were told to descend 9 to 2-2,000 feet. The instruction actually meant 22,000 feet,

[10:26.38]but they thought they heard descend to 2,000 feet.

[10:30.52] That’s a huge difference, and it should have been confirmed, but it was not.

[10:35.34]Unfortunately, the terrain 10 of the mountains in Norweija extends of 20,000 feet.

[10:40.26]W: So the pilots did descend to the wrong altitude then,

[10:44.72]thinking they were following the air controllers’ instructions.

[10:48.55]M: Sadly enough, yes, they did. It was a really bad mistake.

[10:52.93]Many people died as a result of the simple misunderstanding.

[10:56.98]W: Wow, that’s a powerful lesson on how important it can be to accurately 11 communicate to each other.

[11:05.18]Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[11:11.31]23. What was the cause of the tragedy?

[11:31.81]24. How high are the mountains in Norweija?

[11:51.14]25. What lesson could be drawn 12 from the accident?

[12:11.64]Exercise Three

[12:15.47]Conversation One

[12:18.53]W: Hello. 24th Precinct. Officer Jones speaking.

[12:22.91]M: Help. Yeah, uh, it was wild, I mean really fantastic.

[12:28.81]W: Calm down sir! Now, what do you want to report?

[12:32.64]M: Well, I’d like to report a UFO sighting.

[12:36.68]W: A what?

[12:38.87]M: An unidentified flying object!

[12:41.17]W: Wait, tell me exactly what you saw.

[12:44.34]M: Well, I was driving home from a party about three hours ago, so it was about 2:00 a.m.,

[12:52.11]when I saw this bright light overhead.

[12:55.39]W: Okay. And then what happened?

[12:57.80]M: Oh, man. Well, it was out of this world.

[13:01.52]I stopped to watch the light when it disappeared behind a hill about a kilometer ahead of me.

[13:07.20]W: Now, how do you know it was a UFO? Perhaps you only saw the lights of an airplane,

[13:12.56]or the headlights of an approaching car. Things like that happen, you know.

[13:17.47]M: Well, if it was that, how do you explain “the BEAST”?

[13:22.83]W: What do you mean, “the BEAST”?

[13:24.69]M: Okay. I kept driving for about five minutes when all of a sudden, this giant,

[13:34.43]hairy creature jumped out in front of my car.

[13:34.42]W: Well, that’s the best story I’ve heard all night, sir.

[13:38.41] Now, have you been taking any medication, drugs, or alcohol in the last 24 hours?

[13:43.44]You mentioned you went to a party.

[13:46.32]M: What? Well, I did have a few beers, but I’m telling the truth. I’m not crazy.

[13:54.19]W: Well, we’ll look into your story.

[13:56.59]Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[14:02.83]19. Where was the man coming from when he first saw the UFO?

[14:23.46]20. What time did the man report the incident to the police?

[14:46.06]21. What jumped out in front of the man’s car?

[15:06.56]Conversation Two

[15:08.31]W: Good morning and welcome to today’s program.

[15:12.91] Have you always wanted to invest, but didn’t know where to get started?

[15:17.62]Today’s show will help you with this problem. Very happily, we have Mr. Brown as our guest.

[15:24.18]Welcome to our program, Mr. Brown.

[15:26.69]M: It’s a pleasure to be here.

[15:28.77]W: Now, Mr. Brown. Can you give us some suggestions on how to invest wisely?

[15:34.02]M: Well, I think there are three basic guidelines to smart investment.

[15:38.61]W: What are they?

[15:40.00]M: Number one is to have clear goals. Decide how many years you will invest for,

[15:45.36]and what your needs will be in the future.

[15:47.55]W: I see. First, we should have a clear goal. That’s definitely important.

[15:52.37]Then what is the second guideline?

[15:55.43]M: Number two is to understand the range of possibilities. You’ll want diversified 13 investments:

[16:01.12]one with a mix of stocks, mutual 14 funds, bonds, and cash. It’s a jungle out there.

[16:07.45]Each of these products has different risks associated with them and also different potential rewards.

[16:13.91]Understand them before you buy, so there won’t be any big surprises later.

[16:18.61]W: That sounds quite reasonable. Well, what about the third guideline?

[16:23.42]M: Finally, number three is to have realistic expectations.

[16:28.01]Keep this in mind: he who wishes to be rich in a day will be hanged in a year.

[16:33.70]You should invest for the long term since the stock market has both up and down years.

[16:39.17]W: That’s quite true. For example, over the past several years,

[16:42.99]New York stocks have averaged 30% annual returns,

[16:48.25]but this may not continue for long. Well, that’s our today’s show.

[16:53.61]Thank you, Mr. Brown, for joining us.

[16:56.34]M: My pleasure.

[16:59.94]Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

[17:04.86]22. What are the two speakers mainly talking about?

[17:24.99]23. What is the first guideline to investment?

[17:44.98]24. What should investors 15 understand before they invest?

[18:04.21]25. What do we learn about the stock market from the conversation?
