[00:00.88]Conversation One


[00:02.74]M: Hi,Mary. Do you want to start writing a lab report


[00:07.78]after we finish this experiment?


[00:09.63]W: I can't. In fact I need to finish early


[00:12.81]because I'm going over to the psychology 1 department


[00:15.54]to talk to Professor Smith about a job opening.


[00:19.04]M: You mean a job on campus?


[00:20.91]W: Yeah.And it sounds pretty interesting.


[00:23.20]It involves helping 2 with her study on learning style.


[00:26.59]M: Yeah.I know that's her area of expertise 3.


[00:30.64]W: Right.Anyway for her study


[00:34.03]she's taking some high school students


[00:36.01]who aren't doing very well in their classes


[00:38.30]and testing them to find out what their learning styles are.


[00:41.58]Then tutors,people like me,


[00:44.21]will work with them presenting material


[00:47.06]to them in their particular learning style.


[00:49.46]M: Are you getting paid for this?


[00:52.09]W: I'm sure we'll get something,though probably not much.


[00:55.48]Anyway it doesn't matter to me,


[00:57.78]I just want to get some handson experience.


[01:00.84]M: Yeah. And it'll be nice to help those high school students too.


[01:04.89]W: That's what I thought when I saw the ad.


[01:07.41]You know you could do it too.


[01:09.37]You don't have to be in her classes to work on the study.


[01:12.66]M: Really? Do you have any idea what the schedule is like?


[01:16.49]W: Late afternoon then evening for tutoring I think.


[01:20.75]After all, the kids are in regular classes until three thirty.


[01:24.92]M: Actually that's perfect for me.


[01:27.32]W: Then come along. We will save the lab report for later.


[01:31.03]But we'd better make sure


[01:32.57]we do a good job on our experiment first.


[01:34.99]M: Yeah.First things first.


[01:37.18]Questions 1 to 3 are based on the conversation you have just heard.


[01:46.75]1. Why is the woman interested in working with Professor Smith?


[02:07.91]2. What will the college students do for the high school students?


[02:25.99]3. What will the speakers probably do next?


[02:48.31]Conversation Two


[02:50.87]W: What started you in computers?


[02:54.36]M: I built my first computer when I was in Junior High School.


[02:57.97]I was an enthusiastic reader,


[03:00.37]I studied everything I could get my hands on.


[03:02.74]Then I turned to building my own machine.


[03:05.58]From that point on, I was hooked.


[03:08.32]W: Where do you see computers as going in the future?


[03:11.60]M: This will be the era of distributed devices,


[03:14.34]some of which will be in your walls,


[03:17.18]some of which you will wear,


[03:19.48]some of which will be in your cars and throughout your house,


[03:23.30]and maybe one of which will be on your desk.


[03:27.02]Devices with processors in them will be everywhere,


[03:30.31]they will be connected,


[03:31.84]and they will look less like traditional PCs.


[03:35.23]W: What kind of computer do you have now?


[03:37.42]M: My primary machine is a heavily loaded PowerMac,


[03:41.57]which I use to write all my books and to do video editing.


[03:45.18]I've also got a Toshiba notebook


[03:47.27]which I use for all my work at the company and for email.


[03:50.65]W: There are critics who say


[03:52.62]that technology is dangerous and is moving too fast.


[03:55.91]What's your reaction?


[03:57.44]M: There is criticism voiced in every generation.


[04:00.83]One can't stop this kind of progress,


[04:03.46]so the critics you cite above are cursing the dark.


[04:06.96]That being said, it's important


[04:09.60]to always consider the implications of the technology we create,


[04:13.10]for they have social impact.


[04:17.31]Questions 4 to 7 are based on the conversation you have just heard.


[04:22.78]4. What happened after the man built his first computer?


[04:42.69]5. What does the man see the future of computers?


[05:02.74]6. What does the man say about the criticism of technology?


[05:24.84]7. What kind of computer is the man using?
