雅思（听力）模拟试卷1(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. Listening ModuleListening Module (30 minutes & 10 minutes transfer time)听力原文：Man: Hello ‘Paragliders’ Paradise’. How can l help you?Maria: Oh hi. I’m interested in doing a course in paragliding.Man: Which course are you interested in?Maria: Well, I’m not sure. What’s available?Man: Well ... we’ve got the introductory course which lasts for two days.Maria: OK.Man: Or there’s the 4-day beginners’ course which is what most people do first. I’d tend to recommend that one. And there’s also the elementary pilot course which takes five to six days depending on conditions.Maria: We might try the beginner’s course. What sort of prices are we looking at?Man: The introductory is ＄190; the beginner’s course, which is probably what you’d be looking at, is ＄320 - no, sorry 330 - it’s just gone up - and the pilot course is ＄430.Maria: Right.Man: And you also have to become a member of our club so that you’re insured. That’ll cost you ＄12 a day. Everyone has to take out insurance, you see.Maria: Does that cover me if I break a leg?Man: No, I’m afraid not - it’s only 3rd party and covers you against damage to other people or their belongings, but not theft or injury. You would need to take out your own personal accident insurance.Maria: I see! And what’s the best way to get to your place? By public transport or could we come by bike? We’re pretty keen cyclists.Man: It’s difficult by public transport though there is a bus from Newcastle; most people get here by car, though, cos we’re a little off the beaten track. But you could ride here OK. I’ll send you a map. Just let me take down a few details. What’s your name?Maria: Maria Gentle.Man: And your address, Maria?Maria: Well, I’m a student staying with a family in Newcastle.Man: So it’s care of ...Maria: Care of Mr and Mrs. McDonald.Man: Like the hamburgers!Maria: Yes, exactly.Man: McDonald ...Maria: The post office box address is probably best. It’s R.O. Box 676, Newcastle.Man: Is there a fax number there, because I could fax you the information?Maria: Yes, actually, there is. It’s 0249 that’s for Newcastle and then double seven five four three one.Man: OK. Now if you decide to do one of our courses, you’ll need to book in advance and to pay when you book. How would you be paying?Maria: Uh ... by credit card if that’s OK. Do you take Visa?Man: Yes, fine. We take all major cards, including Visa.Maria: OK then. Thanks very much.Maria: Hi, Pauline.Pauline: Hi, Maria! What’s that you’re reading?Maria: Just some information from a paragliding school-it looks really good fun. Do you fancy a go at paragliding?Pauline: Sure! Do you have to buy lots of equipment and stuff?Maria: Not really. The school provides the equipment but we’d have to take a few things along.Pauline: Such as?Maria: Well, it says here. ‘Clothes: wear stout boots’, so no sneakers or sandals I suppose, and ‘clothes suitable for an active day in the hills, preferably a long-sleeved t-shirt.’ That’s probably in-case you land in the stinging nettles! It also says we should bring a packed lunch. We do not recommend soft drinks or flasks of coffee. Water is really the best thing to drink. Er...we need to bring suntan lotion and something to protect your head from the sun!Pauline: OK that sounds reasonable. And where would we stay?Maria: Well look! They seem to operate a campsite too, because it says here that it’s only ＄10 a day to pitch a tent. That’d be fine, wouldn’t it? And that way we’d save quite a bit because even a cheap hotel would cost money.Pauline: Um... or perhaps we could stay in a bed-and- breakfast nearby. It gives a couple of names here we could ring. I think I might prefer that. Hotels and youth hostels would all be miles away from the farm and I don’t fancy a caravan.Maria: No, I agree. But let’s take a tent and pray for good weather.Pauline: OK - let’s do it. What about next weekend?Maria: No, I can’t - I’m going on a geography field trip.Pauline: ... and then it’s the weekend before the exams and I really do need to study.Maria: OK, then. Let’s make it the one after the exams.Pauline: Fine - we’ll need a break by then. Can you ring and let me know ...SECTION 1 Questions 1-10Questions 1-3Listen to the telephone conversation between a student and the owner of a paragliding school and answer the questions below.Circle the correct letters A-D.1．How much is the beginner’s course?A．＄190B．＄320C．＄330D．＄430正确答案：C2．What does the club insurance cover?A．injury to yourselfB．injury to your equipmentC．damage to other people’s propertyD．loss of personal belongings正确答案：C3．How do the girls want to travel?A．public transportB．private busC．carD．bicycle正确答案：DQuestions 4-7Complete the form below.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.4．【4】正确答案：McDonald/Macdonald/MacDonald5．【5】正确答案：Post Office Box/PO Box 6766．【6】正确答案：7754317．【7】正确答案：credit card/Visa8．Question 8Circle TWO letters A-G.Which TWO of the following items must people take with them?[A] sandals[B] old clothes[C] pullover[D] shirt with long sleeves[E] soft drinks[F] hat正确答案：DF解析：你必须选对两个答案才能得分。

Please turn to Section 1.Section 1You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.Herbie: (running up the street, out of breath) Emma! Emma, hello!Emma: Herbie! How are you, I haven't seen you for ages...Herbie:Yeah, what's it been, seven years I think. I suppose I haven't seen you since we graduated from university. What have you been up to?Emma: Oh me? Not much, I went back to Canada for a while to live with my parents in Toronto. The job market was extremely good for software programming.Herbie: But I thought your major was forensic anthropology. Weren't you studying the remains of ancient DOS programs?Emma: Very funny! But no, I was only trying to make some money to pay back my student loans.The problem with Toronto was there was so much competition and my major wasn't helping me get promoted in the computer field, so I applied for graduate school here in England.Now we shall begin. You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time.First, you have another chance to look at questions 1 to 6.Listen carefully and answer ques tions 1 to 6.Herbie: (running up the street, out of breath) Emma! Emma, hello!Emma: Herbie! How are you, I haven't seen you for ages...Herbie: Yeah, what's it been, seven years I think. I suppose I haven't seen you since we graduated from university.What have you been up to?Emma: Oh me? Not much, I went back to Canada for a while to live with my parents in Toronto.The job market was extremely good for software programming.Herbie: But I thought your major was forensic anthropology.Weren't you studying the remains of ancient DOS programs?Emma: Very funny! But no, I was only trying to make some money to pay back my student loans.The problem with Toronto was that there was so much competition and myt major would not help me get promoted in the computer field,so I applied for graduate school here in England.Herbie: I bet you already miss the weather in Toronto. I hear it's quite lovely in spring.Emma: Right now it's not too bad, but the winter is bitterly cold.I like summertime the best by far. This summer my younger sister is getting married there.I can't wait to go back for a visit, I plan to swim in the lake near our house and not worry about school for a while.Your hometown has better weather than my hometown. Aren't you originally from Australia?Herbie: Sydney, to be exact. So what are you studying now?Emma: I am working on a master's degree in e-commerce at the University of London.Herbie: And to think, in school you were always saying how much you hated to use computers! Now you're planning to work on the World Wide Web, what a surprise!Emma: I never said I "hated" computers, I just found them hard to use. Now I can't get enough of them.Besides, there is good money to be made on the Internet.Hey, enough about me. What have you been doing for the last seven years?Herbie: I've been all over the world-Egypt, India, and the Far East. You name it, I've been there. Emma: That sounds really exciting! Doing what?Herbie: I'm a house D.J. I've spun records at discotechs all over the planet.Emma: You're a disc jockey? I can't believe it. I thought your major was chemistry.Herbie: Molecular chemistry to be precise, but I decided to go in a different direction.I wasn't too keen on developing dangerous chemicals for multinational corporations.Emma: I bet you have not been to Inner Mongolia.Herbie: Actually, you're righ Emma goes on to ask Herbie about his hometown. Look at questions 6 to 9.Write the answers to questions 6 to 9Emma: So, if you are such a world traveler, why are you here in England and not somewhere strange and exotic?Herbie: Even though I was born in Sydney, I will always consider London my homEmma: Whatever for? London doesn't have the beautiful weather or cute kangaroos and koala bears that Australia has.Herbie: Look, if I want to see animals I go to the zoo.London is my home because I've lived here far longer.When I was 10 my mum sent me to live with my aunt and uncle in Highgate, a suburb of London, to go to school.It was really tough at first. I had no friends, and my schoolmates poked fun at my Aussie accent.But after a few years, I really started to fit in.Now when I visit my Mum in Sydney I feel like a tourist.A lot has changed there in 18 yearEmma: Sorry. I didn't mean to get you all worked up. I simply meant,why are you here instead of somewhere really hip like Tokyo or Beijing.Herbie: Well, I was. I mean I've already lived abroad for seven years.and I wanted to be somewhere familiar for a while. Then, out of the blue,one of my mates called me and offered me a job as a sound engineer for a BBC television show.Now I've got good pay and a contract for four years.Emma: That's quite impressive! From test tubes to television... what a transformation! Herbie: How long are you here for? Do you plan to stay after you finish your degree?Emma: That's hard to say. I really like London, but it's so expensive.Where I live really depends on what kind of job I can find online.I've already started looking. I even applied for a company based in Sydney,though I would hate to have to leave London. I have to decide soon, because I complete my degree next term.Herbie: Sounds like you still have plenty of time. If you don't mind me asking,do you ever have free time after classes?Emma: Well I work from Thursday through Sunday evenings as a waitress.But during the week I am usually free.Herbie: That's great! I keep similar hours. How about meeting for coffee next Monday around 4pm? Emma: Alright, meet me at the campus north gate next Monday. See you then.Herbie: See you Monday!That is the end of Section 1. You now have half a minute to check your answers. Section 2 You will hear an announcer giving information about the site of a circus. Look at questions 10 to 14 and the map. As you listen, write the appropriate letter from the map next to the facilities stated in questions 10 to 12. And write down the answers for questions 13 and 14.Good afternoon ladies, gentlemen and children of all ages!I am the ringmaster of Barnum and Balley's Circus.Before I allow you all to enjoy today's entertainment, permit me to tell you about the fairground.The Big Top is the large red and yellow-striped tent you see behind me.That is where all of today's featured acts will be performing.On my right there are two long trailers.That is where you can view human and animal oddities of all sorts - our Freak Show.Across from the Freak Show to my left is the Petting Zoo.Here both children and adults can enjoy playing with cute little animals.We have young goats, lambs and rabbits, as well as ponies for the children to ride.Now there's an adorable picture, eh folks? If your camera needs more film,remember that you can buy some at the souvenir stalls outside the main entrance.Located directly hehind the Big Top are the Ferris Wheel and rollercoasters.There rides are sure to give you a thrill. And speaking of thrills,in the unlikely event of accident,please use the emergency ex it located at the back of the park near the FerrisWheel.Refreshments may be purchased at the concession stand to the right of the Petting Zoo,in front of the security booth.Be advised that on the left-hand side of the Main Entrance can be found public telephones.On the right-hand side of the said entrance there is the security and first aid stall.If you lose anything while at the fairground be sure to go as soon as possible to security and reportit.Finally, the restrooms are at the rear left-hand side of the fairground,between the Freak Show trailers and the Ferris Wheel. Please bear in mind that these are pay toilets,costing 20 pence per use.Now the announcer goes on to explain the evening's schedule.Look at the entertainment program and questions 15 to 19.Answer questions 15 to 19 complete the table.Now that all the official announcements are out of the way,I will quickly go over today's program. The entertainment will begin at 12 o'clock, with the Great Santini in the Big Top.Santini has traveled far from his native land of Romania to amaze you with feats of magic.He might even make you disappear! Following Santini at around one o'clock will be the Bozo Brothers.These clowns will hit, trip, trick each other and maybe even crash their clown car,all for your laughter and amusement. Also at one o'clock at the Petting Zoo there will be a goat milking demonstration.This is a fun and educational activity.Over at the Freak Show Trailer, the Bearded Lady will take the stage at 2o'clock.Ever wondered what a woman would look like with a full beard?Well, here is your chance to find out! Trust me folks, the beard is real,but don't try to pull it,or you just might find out what it is like to get hit by a bearded lady!If you do not want to see a woman with facial hair,then back at the Big Top at two o'clock you can watch Gary the Glass Eater do ust what his name implies, eat glass!Gary will make you cringe as he chews and swallows all sorts of glass items,from shards to entire lightbulbs, all without injuring himself.Don't try this at home kids! From 3 to 4 o'clock there will be an intermission.This is a great time for you to visit the refreshment bar and take a rest.When activities resume at four o'clock you will have two options.Down at the Petting Zoo there will a lamb shearing demonstration.Want to know how lamb's wool became that beautiful sweater in your closet?Just ask Maggie Simpson, Scotland's leading wool expert, how it was done.She will demonstrate how to shear the wool from a lamb and then explain the many processes the wool must undergo before it becomes suitable for making clothing and other products.If you are really interested, she might even let you have a hand at shaving a sheep yourself!At the same time, over at the Big Top, there will be an Elephant Parade.Watch as eight massive Indian elephants perform clever tricks with beautifulfemale acrobats balancing on their backs.Immediately following the Elephant Parade, at about five o'clock, the Swan Sisters will perform their world-famous flying trapeze act.Watch these two lovely sisters risk life and limb as they fly and tumble through the air 150 meters above the ground-all without a safety net.I don't want to say too much, but make sure to stay for their grand finale,which is said to be one of the most dangerous trapeze stunts ever performed.At 5:30 the Siamese Twins will take center stage at the Freak Show Trailer. Originally from China,identical twin brothers Ping and Pong have been attached at the hip and shoulder since birth.Talk about family togetherness! If you like, you can even ask them questions about their lives.Our concluding act can also be found at the Freak Show Trailer.At 6:30 you will be able to witness the World's Fattest Man, Marcoff Chaney.Mr. Chaney weighs some 300 kilograms and is truly a sight to see.Thank you for coming to Barnum and Bailey's Circus! We hope you have a wonderful time!That is the end of section 2. You no w have half a minute to check your answers.Section 3Turn to Section 3 of your question booklet. Section 3. You will hear a student asking an English person about the differences between Scotland,England, Northern Ireland and Wales. Look at questions20-25.Now listen and complete questions 20 to 25.Hiro: Excuse me sir, my name is Hiro, and I noticed that your rucksack has a British flag patch on it. May I ask you if you are British?Liam: My rucksack? Oh, yes the Union Jack. Well, that's a bit of a joke actually.However, yes I am English. Why do you want to know?Hiro: I am doing a report on the issue of identity in the U.K.I want to know how people from England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland see themselves.What I mean to say is, being that all four of the countries are part of the United Kingdo how different could they possibly be?Liam: Well, they are nothing at all alike, really. Culture, ancestry and language all differ quite considerably from region to region.Hiro: How so?Liam: Let's start with England. The U.K. has a population of about 59 million. Of those people, about 49 million live in England.London is the capital and a very metropolitan city.About a fourth of all those living in England reside in London.It is the most multicultural city in the United Kingdom.It has many immigrants from all over the world.London is very exciting, and there is always something to do day or night.The influence that London has on the rest of England makes the capital city unlike the rest of the U.K.It is very modern and futureminded.Hiro: You would of course say this because you are British!Liam: Well, what would you expect! By the way, it is quite good of you to say "British".When you are talking to people from Britain, it is safest to use 'Britain' when talking about where they live and'British' to describe their nationality;you will be less likely to offend anyone. I mean you can be from England and not consider yourself English.Hiro: Why is that? If you are all citizens of England, then why isn't your identity first English and then Scottish or whatever?Liam: There has been a long history of emigration to England from Scotland, Wales and Ireland. As a result, there are millions of people who live in England but who would never describe themselves as English.They may have lived in England all their lives, but as far as they are concerned they are Scottish,Welsh or Irish. These people support the country of their parents or grandparents rather than England in things such as sporting events.Liam and Hiro continue to discuss the United Kingdom. Look at questions 26-29.Listen and complete questions 26 to 29.Hiro: Doesn't this constant switching of loyalties ever cause problems?Shouldn't people who wereborn or who have lived in one country for a very long time support only that country?Liam: Actually, it has caused quite a few problems, especially in Ireland and Northern Ireland. Hiro: Yes, I have heard something of the so-called 'Irish Troubles'.Isn't there, at this moment, a civil war going on in Northern Ireland?I believe it is because some citizens want to remain as part of the United Kingdom,but other people want to become part of the Republic of Ireland.Liam: That is a subject that is difficult to discuss.Some people in Northern Ireland want to be unified with Ireland.However over the years many immigrants from Britain as well as Irish loyal to the crown want to continue to be ruled by the British government.This is a subject that the British prefer not to talk about.Hiro: Sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. You aren't Irish are you?Liam: No. Actually my hometown is Glasgow in Scotland.Hiro: Oh Scottish! Does that mean that sometimes you wear a skirt?Liam: I think you mean a kilt, which is not the same as a skirt at all.Hiro: Sorry. There is so much about U.K. culture I do not understand.If you don't mind me asking, why do the Irish want independence from Britain,but the Scottish do not?Liam: There are some people from my hometown that would disagree with you,but the truth is that Scotland and England have a long history of immigration and communication.Perhaps you've heard of Mary Queen of Scots, who once ruled England as well.The Irish, on the other hand, partly due to the fact that Ireland is a separate island were always more isolated,and had almost no political power. Hiro: Oh, that makes a lot of sense to me, I come from a very isolated island country as well. Liam: Really, where is that?Hiro: Well, I'm Japanese. My hometown is Okinawa.Liam: I can't say I've ever been there, but I've always wanted to visit Japan.I wonder if it is anything like the U.Hiro: Well, because England and Japan are islands importing goods is therefore very expensive. Liam: Yeah, and the U.K. and Japan are the only countries where the driver sits on the right side of a car.Hiro: Hey, you're right!Liam: So, how much longer will you be on holiday here?Hiro: Unfortunately, I leave in two days.Liam: That's too bad. There is a huge music festival taking place this weekend in Read ing.If you do decide to stay longer, you really ought to attend it.Hiro: That sounds fun!That is the end of Section 3. You now have half a minute to check your answers.Now listen to the lecture and answer questions 30-35.Good morning ladies and gentlemen.Today's topic in our series of lectures on the development of British socialism is health care.Some believe that the current system is the world's greatest.This morning I will present the facts and let you decide if this statement is truThe National Health Service Act of 1946-7 was based on the Beveridge Report recommendations.It established the NHS to replace the previous private system of payment for health care.The NHS now provides a comprehensive range of free medical and some free dental services for the whole country.It includes hospitals, doctors, dentists, nurses and other health facilities,and is financed out of public taxation and some contributions from the national insurance scheme.At first, the NHS was opposed by the medical profession,which wis hed to retain private medicine.But such objections were countered by the Labour government.In its first years of operation the NHS covered 95 per cent of the population and cost some 400 million pounds a year to run.This cost currently stands at 36,000 million pounds, or some 14 per cent of total government expenditure,and the NHS is also the biggest single employer of labour in Western Europe.Yet total health expenditure in Britain as a percentage of the gross domestic product (GDP) is some six per cent,and lower than in other major western industrialized countries.The NHS in England is divided into central government,regional and district health authorities.The Secretary of State for Health has overall responsibility for policy,and for supervising the regional and district authorities.Secretaries of state do a similar job in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.The district authorities in England and Wales, health boards in Scotland,and health and social service boards in Northern Ireland organize health in their local areas.In England, because of its size, the additional 14 regional authorities (which the governmentwants to abolih) are centered on university medical schools,and are a link between the Department of Health and the districts.It was originally intended that the NHS would be completely free of charge in its provision of consultations,treatment and medicine.Before the final part of the lecture, look at questions 36 to 40.Answer questions 36 to 40 according to the information given in the lecture.But prescriptions, which are written notes from a doctor enabling patients to obtain drugs from a chemist,now have to be paid for, as do some dental work, dental checks and eye tests.Such payments are, however, dependent upon employment status, age and income, so that children under 16,recipients of social security benefits and most old-age pensioners usually receive free health services.In practice, some 80 per cent of medical prescriptions are supplied free.Similarly, hospital care and treatment under the NHS is free for British and European Union citizens.The NHS occupies an ambivalent position in the public imagination.On the one hand, it is praised for its ork and status as a free service, and for its achievements.It is perceived to be a success in terms of consumer demand,especially when contrasted with earlier provisions for medical care.Today, people in general receive help when they need it, and many who would previously have died or suffered are surviving and being cared for.The standards of living and medicine have risen, better diets have been devised and there is a greater health awareness among the population at large.On the other hand, the NHS is criticized for its alleged inefficiency,inadequate standards and bureaucracy.Its objectives are sometimes considered too ambitious for the money spent on it.The media are constantly drawing attention to shortcomings and forecasting breakdowns.Workers within the NHS, such as doctors, nurses and non-medical staff,have frequently complained about low pay, long hours,bureaucracy and inadequate levels of staffing.They and other critics seem to feel that many of the problems could be solved simply by injecting more finance into the NHS.It is also argued that the government is cutting services and resources.The NHS is in many ways a victim of its own success,and the demands that the British place upon it as of right.It is inevitable that a free, consumer-led service will either require increasinglevels of expenditure,or better management of existing resources. Yet, despite these problems,the NHS has worked well and gives great value for money.Foreign observers feel that the British do not always appreciate what a good health system they have compared with those of many other countries.That is the end of Section 4.

就时间点而言，专家建议考生尽量选择上午的时间来练习听力，理由是听力考试是雅思考试的第一场考试并且是从上午9点开始。
考生需要调整好做听力题的最佳状态——与考试的时间点同步。
如果练习的时间不容易安排，至少是上午的时间。
强烈不推荐晚上练习听力。
就时间长度而言，不建议太长但也不要太短，两个小时左右最佳。
有的考生为了在听力成绩上取得更高的分数会连续做听力超过两个小时，但从实际的成绩来看，这种狂听的效果并不理想，由于时间长，大脑也比较累，因此很容易破坏我们听题时的瞬间注意力。

Let me see. I think that’s about 150 miles south-west of here .In fact it’s 147 miles to be exact, so it’ll take you at least –say ,three to four hours by road.the Greyhound.Woman:Oh, that doesn’t sound too bad.especially if it*ll take me straight to the hotel.Man:But you do need to reserve a seat.Woman:OK. Is it possible to make a booking right now? Through you?Man:Sure.Man: OK.I just have to fill this form out for you. So what date do you want to book this for? Woman:The 16th of Octobler –oh,no,sorry.that’s my departure date. I arrive on the 17th, so book it for then,please.Man: So, That’s the Toronto Airport Shuttle to Milton.And this is for just one person or…? Woman: yes, just me, please.Man:Right. And you said your excepted time of arrival was 11:30? So if I book your Shuttle for after 12:00-let’s say, 12:30 that should give you plenty of time to, you know, collect your baggage maybe grab a coffee?Woman:Yeah, that sounds fine, as long as we land on time!Man: Well,we’ll take you flight details so you don’t need to warry too much about that. Now. what about the fare? What sort of ticket do you want? One way or…？Woman:Yes,that’ll be fine, provided I can book the return trip once I’m there.Man:No problem – just allow a couple of days in advanced to make sure you get a seat. And what’s you name, please?Woman:Janet, Janet Thomson.Man:Is that Thompson spelt with a “p”?.in the We’ve upgraded all these Spanish sites, and improved them considerably from their original three-star ratingWe believe our holidays offer superb facilities for the whole family. Parents who want their children to be fully occupied for all or part of the day can take advantage of our children’s activities. These are organised by our well-qualified and enthusiastic staff. Each day kicks off a sports match, perhaps football, or volleyball, followed by an hour of drama for everyone. This may include singing or dancing, mime or other activities. In the afternoon, there’s a different art activity for each day of the week including a poster competition or model making. What’s m ore, our sites are truly child-friendly, and, with this in mind, we operate a no-noise rule in theevenings. Children’s evening activities usually finish at 9:30, or occasionally 10, and from 10:30 holiday-makers are expected to be quiet in the areas where there are tents.We want nothing to go wrong on a PS Camping holiday, but if it does, we also want all customers to be insured. If you haven’t organised an annual insurance policy of your own you’ll need to take out the low-cost cover we offer and we require that you arrange this when you take your holiday reservation.There are many advantages to choosing PS Camping, and to recommending it to others. As a regular customer. You’ll be kept informed of special offers. And your friends can benefit from ten per cent off their holiday, or book a luxury tent for the price of a standard one. In return, we’ll send you a thank-you present, which you can choose from a list of high-quality items.When it comes to our tents, these are equipped to the highest standard. We really do think ofin Philip:Yes, I did. On the positive side, exposure to such diversity helps encourage creativity which is generally an asset to a company. But unfortunately individual difference are also the rootof conflict between staff and they can lead to difficulties for management, which can sometimes be serious.**********************************************Tutor:Thanks,philip. So now I guess the two main things to remember here are to identify individual talent and then to utilize it. So Janice, you were looking at identifying different talents in workers Do you think this is easy for managers to do?Janice:Well,currently teamwork is in fashion in the workplace and in my opinion the importance of the individual is generally neglected. What managers should be targeting is those employees who can take the lead in a situation and are not afraid to accept the idea of responsibility.Tutor:That’s true. Janice but unfortunately many managers think the entire notion of encouraging individuality amongst their staff is far too hard.Janice:Yes. That may be true but I think one of the most important tasks of managers is to consider the needs of the individual on one hand and group co-operation and conformity on the other. It requires creative thinking on the part of management to avoid tension.Tutor:So Janice, what kind of people do you think companies should be looking for?Janice Well, it has to start from the very beginning when companies are looking for new employees. When the personal department is choosing between applicants they need to look for someone who’s broken the mould and can think for themselves. Instead, people making these decisions often ues a range of psychological tests to see if a person is a problem solver, or will do as they’re told. I’m not convinced these qualities are actually the most important.This is the first seninar in preparation for our archaeological fieldwork in Namibia, we are fantastically luck to have received partial research funding for this trip from our Institute, so I shall expect 200% attention and participation from you all. First in this seminar, I’m going to give a brief introduction to contemporary research on rock art, and in the seco nd part I’m going to give you some do’s and don’ts for our fieldwork trip in April – so please listen very carefully.I’m first going to focus on the interpretation of rock art in Namibia, we are very fortunate to be going to an area where you can find some of the most important sites in the entire world. And I hope to show you how easy it is foe everyone to make mistakes in looking at cultures which are different from our pwn – the first and most important lesson we have to learn.In Namibia there are both paintings and engraving –that’s where the surface of the rock is cut out. Many of the engravings show footprints of animals and most scholars used to think that the purpose of these was simple and obvious. This r ock art was like a school book with picture to teach children about tracks whick belonged to which animal – giraffe, lion and so on.But there were some mysteries. First, when you look at a typical Namibian painting or engraving, you see the tracks are repeated, there are dozens of tracks for t he same animal. You’d expect just one clear illustration if the reason – the aim – was to teach tracking.Now there were two more problem, why are some of the engraving of animals very accurate as you’d expect – all clearly identifiable- and others quite unrealisticAnd another mystery – some of these unrealistic animals – that*s in the engravings – seem to be half human. Some, for example, have got human faces, Many reaearchers now think that theseAnd lastly please don’t even move rocks or branches to take photographs – you should leave the site intace –I’m sure I can rely on you to do that..Well,That’s about all I want to say before today’s first discussion, but if you have any question please ask them now –and don’t forget you’ll find some fascinating information aboutworld-wide sites on the Internet. Right, first question then?Text 2Section 1Woman: Hello… motor insurance department …Man: Oh hello… I’d like to ask about insurance for my car.Woman: Yes, of course. I’ll just take a few details. What’s your name?Man: Patrick Jones.Woman: And your addrss?Man: It’s 27 Bank Road.Woman: 27 Bank Road. Is that in Greendale?Man: Yes.Woman: And what’s your daytime phone number?Man: My work number is 730453.Woman: And could ask what your occupation is?Man: Dentist.Woman: OK… now a few details about your car… What size is the engine?Man: It’s a Hewton Sable.Woman: Social use (murmuring). Will you be using it to travel to work？Man: Yes… sometimes.Woman: …Anything else?Man: No. that’s it…Woman: And finally… when would you like to start the insurance？Man: I’ll need it from the 31st of January.Woman: Right… Mr Jones… I’m getting a couple of quotes coming up on the computer now… and the best bet looks like being with a company called Red Flag. Man: Yeah.Woman: And that comes out at ＄540 per year…Man: Well … that seems OK… it’s quite a bit lower than I’ve been paying up to now…Woman: Great… so would you like me to go ahead with that?Man: Sure… why not?Woman: How would you like to pay?Section 2Thank you for calling the Tourist Line. There are many different ways of getting round the city and we’d like to suggest some you may not have thought of.How about a city trip by boat? Thare are four main stopping points – from west to east: atop A Green Banks, stop B City Bridge, stop C Roman Landing and atop D Newtown.You can find the main booking office at stop A.The first boat leaves at 8 a.m. and the last one at 6:30 p.m. There are also many attractions youInterviewer: Now my first question is about the choice of location for the centre. Why Christchurch? Was it because of the climate?Doctor: Well, actually New Zealand is the second closest country to Antarctica and Christchurch isoften used on Antarctic expeditions.Interviewer: Right. So it’s because of where we are… coupled with our historical role. So tell us – what is the main purpose of the centre?Doctor: Well…we have two complementary roles. One is as a scientific base for expeditions and research and the other is as an information centre.Interviewer: Tell ue something about the role as a scientific base.Doctor: We’re able to provide information about what scientists should take with them to the South Pole – for example, the centre contains a clothing warehouse where expeditions are supplied with suitable clothing for the extreme conditions.Interviewer: I suppose you need a bit more than your normal winter coat!Doctor: yes, exactly and then there’s also the specialist library and mapping services. Interviewer: Right. And which countries are actually located at the centre?Doctor: Well…the centre houses research programmes for New Zealand, for The United States as well as for Italy…there*re even a US post office at the American airforce base here. Interviewer: Really?And what does the v isitor’s centre offer?Doctor: Well, since very few people will ever experience the Antarctic first hand, the visitors* centre aims to recreate the atmosphere of Antarctica. There’s a mock camp site where you canDoctor: Well, as far back as the 19th century, when eleven nations organised an international event.Interviewer: When was that exactly?Doctor: In 1870. And it was called the Polar Research Metting. And then, Not long after that, they organised something called the First International Polar Year.Interviewer: And that took place when exactly?Doctor: Over two years from 1882 to 1883. But it wasn’t until the 1950s that the idea of an international treaty was proposed. And in 1959 the Treaty was actually signed. Interviewer: What do you see as the main achievements of the treaty?Doctor: Well, firstly it means that the continent is reserved for peaceful use.Interviewer: That’s Article a, isn’t it?Doctor: Yes…Interviewer: That’s impor tant since the territory belongs to everyone.DOCTOR: yes but not as important as Article 5, which prohibits any nuclear explosions or waste disposal.Interviewer: Which is marvellous. Well, I’m afraid we’re going to have to stop there because I’m afraid w e’ve run out of time. Thanks for coming along today and telling us all about the centre and its work.Section 4My topic is handedness – whether in different sports it is better to be left – or right-sided or whether a more balanced approach is more succes sful .I’m left-handed myself and I actually–STUDENT：Oh，good morning ,Is this…er… room number 26?AGENT：Yes，that's rightSTUDENT：So ls this the Student Job Centre?AGENT：It certainly is．How can I help you?STUDENT：Well，actually I’m looking for a job -a part-time Job, Do you haveanything available at the moment?AGENT：Ah．Yes… Are you a registered student?I`m afraid this service isonly available to full-time studentsSTUDENT：Yes… I am I'm doing a degree in Business Studies．Here's mystudent cardAGENT：Which year are you in?STUDENT：Well… I've been at uni for four years but I'm in the Third Yearbecause I took last year off.AGENT：Right… well，let's just have a look at what positions are available at The moment There's a Job working at the reception desk at the SportsCentre，for three evenings a week that's Wednesdays ,Thursdays andFridays.STUDENT：That sounds 1ike fun but unfortunately I have evening lectures- sothat's not possible ,I’m afraid Is th ere anything during the day?

You have plenty of time to get into shape．You will be sleeping in tents so you must have quite a bit of equipment with you but you will be helpedby local assistants .Your bedding and so forth will be carded by them . We ask that you only walk with a small rucksack with needs for the day .I don’t think I've really said enough about the mar vell ous area you’ll be walking in . Let's havea look at some of the sights you’11 be seeing Apart from these spectacular snow-covered peaks and valleys, there are marvellous historic villages．The area has been famous for centuries for making beautiful carpets , although recently there has been a trend to moveinto weaving blankets and wood carving The people are extremely friendly and welcoming . We deliberately keep the parties small in size to minimize disruption to people and landscape .I hope that there are still some people interested . I will be distributing leaflets at the end where you call find out more information，but just for the moment I’ll outline the itinerary, the main highpoints of the holiday．Obviously , you’ll start by flying out to Kishba ，the capital city , on Day One．After a couple of days to acclimatize yourself , you’ll start the trek on Day Three walking through the enormous Katiba Forest which will take the whole of the day．Day Four takes us higher up，going through the foothills past a number of villages and visiting a school for the disabled in Sohan . Then you have a rest day ,that's Day Five ,before going to the spectacular Kumi Temple with twelfth-century carvings ,set in a small forest bya lake and that's Day Six，the highlight for many．We stay near there for Day Seven because then comes the hardest day ,walking through very mountainous country ,but culminating in a swim in the Parteh Falls , This is the highest waterfall in the region . Day Nine is much easier,whole kilometres down in the water．It stays at this depth for about 10days and is carried around by the currents which operate in the oceanat this level . During this time it's possible for it to cover quite largedistances but the average is fifty kilometresSTUDENT 2：So what is it actually recording ?SIMON：Well at this stage nothing．but as it rises to the surface it collects allsorts of data，most importantly variations in salinity ,that's salt levelsand the changes In temperature，a bit like underwater weather balloons”then when it gets back to the surface all the data it's collected isbeamed up to the satellite . After about five hours on the surface thefloat automatically sinks , beginning the whole process again STUDENT 1：What happens to the data?SIMON：Well the information Is transferred direct to onshore meteorological stations．．．like our one in Hobart．．．and within four hours thefindings can be on computers and they can be mapped and analysed．STUDENT 2：You say you're building models of the world's ocean systems buthow're they going to be used，and more importantly , when? SIMON：Some of the data has already helped in completing projects . Forexample，our understanding of the underlying causes of El Niňoevents is being confirmed by float data Another way we’re using floatdata is to help us to understand the mechanics of climate change，likeSECTION 4Good morning everyone . Today's lecture forms part of the Hospitality and Tourism module Last week 1 looked at the economy end of the hotel business；this week I'm going to discuss The luxury end of the market . Let's consider the following scenario. . .You wake up in the middle of the night in a strange hotel miles away from home , disoriented most probably from jet lag，when even the most expensive surroundings can seem empty and dispiriting . You have paid a great deal of money to stay in this first—class hotel with its contemporary technology ,but according to recent research carried out by an international travel and public relations company , all is not well . The research suggests that even the mostopulent，luxurious hotels seem to have underestimated the most basic needs of their customers-be they travelling for work or pleasure：the need to feel at home in surroundings which are both familiar and inviting .Do these findings , however apply only to hotels situated in particular areas ? Is it possible that the external environment can affect a guest's well-being ? The company's research covered a whole range of different hotel types , both independent hotels and those which are part of large chains . They investigated chic so-called boutique hotels in the heart of downtown business districts，stately mansions located in the depths of beautiful countryside ,and plush hotels built at the edge of tropical beaches surrounded by palm trees and idyllic blue ocean And the research concluded that what was outside the hotel building simply didn't matter．This is a fascinating revelation and those of you hoping to move into careers in the travel andPopular. . .Test 4SECTION 4OFFICER：Yes ,what can I do for you?SUTDENT：My friend Is in homestay … and she really enjoys it… so I'd like tojoin a family as wellOFFICER：Okay ,so let me get some details What's your name?SUTDENT：My name is Keiko YuichiniOFFICER：Could you spell your family name for me?
