Part III Listening Comprehension
Section A
Directions:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A) B) C) and D), and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.
11.W: I'm not going swimming in the lake unless it warms up outside today.
M: Me neither. Unfortunately I think it's supposed to stay this cold all day.
Q: What can be inferred about the speakers?
12.M: That sweater is so unusual and yet it looks familiar. Did I just see you wearing it yesterday?
W: Well, not me. But...see, it belongs to my roommate Jill and she is in your chemistry class.
Q: What does the woman imply?
13.W: This toothache is killing me! I was hoping it would just go away but it's getting worse by the minute. What did you say the name of your dentist was?
M: I told you last week to make that appointment.
Q: What does the man imply?
14.M: You wanna go to a lecture tonight over in the science auditorium? It's some guy who spent a year living in Antarctica.
W: No kidding! I'm doing a report on Antarctica for my geography class. Maybe I can get some good information to add to it.
Q: What does the woman mean?
15.W: I'd really like to learn how to play chess, but it looks so complicated. It seems like it will take a really long time to learn.
M: Well, it takes a long time to get good at it, but we can go over the basics this afternoon if you want.
Q: What does the man imply?
16.M: Do you think you can lend me that novel when you are finished with it? I've been looking all over for a copy, but apparently it sold out at all the bookstores.
W: Oh, it's not mine, it belongs to Alice, but I’ll see what she says.
Q: What will the woman probably do?
17.W: Hmm...are you going to try some of this chocolate pudding? It's incredible.
M: Well, to be honest with you, I've never been a big fan of chocolate.
Q: What does the man imply?
18.W: Why don't we go catch the new Italian film at the Pine Street cinema?
M: That's a little out of the way, don't you think? It's playing just up the street of the Grow of Two, you know.
Q: What does the man suggest they do?
Now you are going to hear two long conversations:
Conversation 1
W:Hi, Greg. What a coincidence to see you, here?
M:Yeah, I’m working night shift today. What are you doing here?
W:Well, I’m trying to look for a book but it has been lent out for the last three weeks. I thought I would try my luck today, but it was all for not. I know it’s overdue according to the computer. Just hope the borrower won’t hang on to the book for too long.
M:What kind of book is it that you wanted so much?
W:You might not believe this. But I’m into astronomy and the book I want to read is by Stephen Hawking who writes about the creation of the universe. Did you notice my puffy eyes? I have been staying up late at night to see the sky and stars.
M:When did you get involved with the universe? I never expect you of all people to have the patience to watch the sky, let alone staying up all night. No wonder you were dozing off during the lecture this morning.
W:I know it’s embarrassing. But I’m really interested in the mystery of the universe and I’m thinking perhaps I’m in the wrong major. I should switch to physics instead of taking drama. But that would mean a totally 180 degree switch from one end to the other.
M:Are you serious? You just started your sky adventure not long ago. Perhaps it’s just a temporary phase you are going through.
W:No, in fact, I have always been fascinated by what’s out there. It’s just that I don’t have the opportunity to explore and discover what it’s all about.
M:Sounds like you’re very sure of what you want. Hey, but remember you probably will lose quite a few credits if you change your major.
W:I realize that. But I think it’s better to go with my feeling than to regret it later.
M:Well, good luck. Maybe one day you’ll be able to locate a comet and have it named after you.
Question No. 19 What is the woman’s problem?
Question No. 20 Why is the man surprised by the woman’s interest in astronomy?
Question No. 21 Why is the man worried about the woman’s desire to change major?
Question No. 22 How does the woman justify her decision?
Conversation two
W:Stan, do you have a minute?
M: Oh, hi, Cathy. Sure. What’s up?
W:Well. I’ve been meaning to talk to you about the situation in the office.
M:I’m not there very often. It’s so noisy that I can’t work.
W:That’s exactly what I’m getting at. We’re supposed to be able to do our preparation and marking in that office, but have you noticed that Jack constantly has students coming in to get help with his course? Lots of people are going in and out.
M:Has anybody spoken to him about it?
W:No, not yet, but someone’s going to have to.
M:We can’t really ask him to stop having students come in for help, can we?
W:No, of course not. But I’m not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine it’s the same for the others in the office.
M:Hmmm, could we ask for a kind of meeting room? When TAs have to talk with students, they can go to the meeting room instead of using the office. You know, there’s room down the hall, a rather small room, which we could ask to use. It’s only for storing supplies.
W:You mean that little storage room? Oh, that would be too small.
M:Are you sure? With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks.
W:Come to think of it, you may be on to something. I’d like to have a look at that room. Can we go there now?
M:Sure. Let’s go.
Question No. 23 What problem at the office are Cathy and Stan discussing?
Question No. 24 Why do Jack’s students come to see him?
Question No. 25 What does Stan suggest they do?
