[00:00.98]Conversation One
[00:02.63]W: Why is it that some children perform much better than others at school?
[00:08.97]M: Obviously, certain children are brighter than others,
[00:13.13]but it's not as simple as that.
[00:14.87]A lot of emphasis is placed on intelligence measured by tests.
[00:19.14]W: The so-called IQ test?
[00:21.66]M: Yes. Basically they are intended to test linguistic 1 and numerical skills,
[00:27.02]so some children are bound to suffer.This is very unfortunate.
[00:31.83]A child with an average IQ may turn out to be successful when he grows up.
[00:36.53]W: What you're saying is that some children have abilities
[00:40.25]that are not easy to measure,
[00:41.78]that aren't appreciated.
[00:43.42]M: Precisely 2.And if these skills are not spotted 3 sufficiently 4 early,
[00:48.35]they cannot be developed.
[00:49.99]That's why, in my view, there are so many unhappy adults in this world.
[00:54.91]They are not doing the things they are best at.
[00:57.98]W: I see.
[00:59.07]M: But at school, only those children who are good with words and numbers
[01:03.11]will probably do well in school examinations.
[01:05.30]W: Right. Is there anything a parent can do to help in this case?
[01:10.01]M: Yes. In my opinion,
[01:12.31]a child should be judged on his individual talents.
[01:15.26]After all,being happy in life is putting skills to good use,
[01:19.74]no matter what they are.
[01:21.06]Questions 1 to 3 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[01:28.28]1. What is the basic purpose of IQ tests?
[01:50.95]2. According to the man,
[01:54.45]why are there so many unhappy adults in the world?
[02:12.55]3. According to the woman,
[02:15.18]why can't some children do well in school examinations?
[02:36.69]Conversation Two
[02:39.17]W: Hello,John.This is Florence Richardson.
[02:42.78]I'm sorry to phone you at this hour,
[02:44.75]but I'm experiencing a sticky issue,
[02:47.37]and I can't think of anyone to get advice from besides you.
[02:51.21]M: What's up?
[02:52.41]W: Well,I moved to my present apartment a couple months ago
[02:56.13]and now I'm thinking of deferring 5 my studies and planning
[02:59.96]to return to my parents' place next month.
[03:02.25]Today, I gave notice to my landlord
[03:04.55]but he said he's unable to give my deposit back
[03:07.83]since I have to stay a minimum of six months.
[03:11.12]M: Are you giving him a-month-in-advance notice to move?
[03:14.83]W: Yes, that's exactly what I did today.
[03:17.79]In the tenancy agreement,
[03:19.54]that's the timeframe requested to notify the landlord.
[03:23.15]M: Yes,that's the usual practice.Well,
[03:26.65]in the tenancy agreement,
[03:28.18]did it state that there's a minimum of six months' stay
[03:31.46]or the deposit would be forfeited 6?
[03:33.22]W: Not that I could remember.
[03:34.53]M: Well,I have never heard of it either.
[03:37.03]It could be the landlord is trying to intimidate 7 you.
[03:40.32]Perhaps you should pull your contract out and have a word with him.
[03:44.26]W: Yes,that's exactly what I'm thinking of.
[03:46.66]M: If the contract does not state the timeframe,
[03:49.94]then he shouldn't impose it himself.
[03:51.80]W: You are right,John.You just confirmed my reasoning.
[03:55.09]M: Look, Sarah, I'll go with you to see the landlord tomorrow
[03:58.80]and if he still insists on forfeiting 8 your deposit,
[04:01.76]we'll go to the small claim court to get your money back.
[04:04.83]W: Thanks, John, I really appreciate that.
[04:07.34]Questions 4 to 7 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
[04:14.23]4. Why is Sarah worried?
[04:35.32]5. What does the landlord plan to do?
