SECTION 1
F = Female student
M = Male student
C = Clerk
F: Excuse me. Can you help me? I was looking for the Main Hall.
M: Maybe I can, actually. I'm looking for the Main Hall, too. I
think it's in Example the Administration building. Are you a new
student?
F: Yes, I am.
Repeat
M: I thought you looked as lost as me. I'm trying to find the admin
building, too, so that I can register for my course. But I don't
seem to be having much luck.
F: Well, look, according to this map of the campus here, you go
straight up the steps, turn left and the building is on the right.
(Q1) OK, let's see if we can find it.
M: Oh, this looks right. Oh, yeah, it must be. Look, there are
hundreds of other people here!
F: There must be at least 50 people (Q2) in the queue-we'll be here
till gone 2 o'clock at this rate.
M: And I'm starving!
F: So am I.
M: Actually, I was on my way to the canteen to get something for
lunch. Why don't I go to the canteen and buy something and you stay
here and wait?
F: Good idea.
M: What would you like? Pizza, sandwich, hot dog, fried rice. They
do everything...
F: Oh, something easy. Take away fried rice sounds good.
M: OK, fried...
F: No, on second thoughts, I'll have a cheese and tomato sandwich.
(Q3)
M: Right-one cheese and tomato-anything to drink?
F: Yeah, get me a coffee, would you?
M: Oh, hot coffees a bit hard to carry. What about a coke or an
orange juice?
F: Oh, um... get me an orange juice, then. (Q4) Look, here's five
dollars.
M: Oh, take two dollars back, it shouldn't cost me more than three
dollars.
F: Well, keep the five and we'll sort it out later. (Q5) Oh, and
could you get me an apple as well?
M: OK. Back in a minute.
F: Oh, hello. I'm here to register for the First Year Law course.
C: I'll just have to fill out this form for our records. What's your

connected and I'll make a note here to be advised. (Q9) And the
course?
F: I beg your pardon?
C: What course are you doing?
F: First Year Law. (Q10)
C: Right. Well, you'll have to go across to the Law Faculty and get
this card stamped and then you come back here with it and pay your
union fee.
F: Thanks very much.
M: Oh, there you are.
F: I thought you were never going to come back.
M: Sorry! The canteen was absolutely packed and I had to wait for
ages. Then when I got to the front of the queue they had hardly any
food left. So I had to get you a slice of pizza. (Q11) I'm sorry.
F: Oh, that's OK. I could eat anything. I'm so hungry.
M: And there's your bottle of orange juice and your apple. At least
I managed that.
F: Great. Thanks a lot.
M: Oh and here's your $2 back.
F: Don't worry about it. Buy me a cup of coffee later!
M: Oh, all right then! So how'd you go?
F: Well in order to register we've got to go to the Law Faculty and
get this card stamped and then go back to the Admin building and pay
the union fees. (Q12) That means we're registered. After that we
have to go to the notice board to find out about lectures and then
we have to put our names down for tutorial groups and go to the
library to...
M: Great. Well first let's sit down and have our lunch.
Listening Test 9
Section One
You will hear a conversation between a new student and admission
officer of an Australia university. You will have to answer the
questions as you instructed to do so in the question booklet. Look
at example and question 1-11.
You should answer the questions as you listen. First listen to the
example.
Vicky: Good morning, I'm Vicky Nazir. How can I help you.
Yunda: Good morning, my name is Yunda. I have to complete the
enrolment form, and I'm not sure about some of the aspect.
Vicky: Right, let's go to my office, where we can look at the
handbook to see how we can help you.
Instructor: Vicky will look at the handbook. So in the example, B is
the answer. Now we will play the whole recording for Section One.
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 1-11. Now we shall begin. Listen carefully, and
answer questions indicated in the question booklet.
Vicky: Good morning, I'm Vicky Nazir. How can I help you.
Yunda: Good morning, my name is Yunda. I have to complete the
enrolment form, and I'm not sure about some of the aspect.
Vicky: Right, let's go to my office, where we can look at the
handbook to see how we can help you.
Vicky: Let's sit around this table where we can spead things out.
Now what's your first problem Yunda?
Yunda: Well, first of all I can't decide which programme to take and
which elective.
Vicky: Well let's deal with the programme first. Do you want a
science or arts type of programme?
Yunda: Oh arts definitely. But I can't decide a social sciences, a
humanities, and an education programme.
Vicky: (Q1) Actually you needn't make the final decision about your
programme now. You can leave that until the end of the first year.
As long as you take elective that leaves you plenty of options.
Yunda: I see. Then I need to select my courses carefully. So I still
have all the options at the end of the year.
Vicky: Yes, that's right. Let's deal with the foundation course
first. All students must take one foundation course as part of the
requirement of the first year.
Yunda: Is this on the list of Page 21 of the handbook?
Vicky: Yes, that's right. Have you looked at the description of
those courses?
Yunda: Yeah, I think I would like to do A109 Futures. It looks so
interesting.
Vicky: Yes. But as a foreign student, I think you should consider
doing A114. That's Australia and its People.
Yunda: I also think this might be good: Structure, Though, and
Reality, or Life in the Universe. The description of both says they
will help me to develop skills of argument and analysis.
Vicky: Actually all the foundation courses are designed to do that.
(Q2) But A 114 will help you gain a better understanding of the
country you are studying in.
Yunda: That's true. And it's worth 6 points well each of the others
is only 3. OK, I'll do Australia and Its People.
Vicky: Good. It's very important to keep your points in mind when
selecting courses.
Yunda: All right.
Vicky: Well normally full-time students enroll for 12 credits each
semester, or 24 credit points each academic year. (Q3) However, if
your enrolment drops below 9 points in any one semester, you won't
be considered full-time.
Yunda: What would happen then?
Vicky: Well, if you fall below the required 9 points, you won't be
eligible for student visa.
Question 4-9
For each space in the following summary, write one word or a number
in the answer column while you listen.
Vicky: Now I think we should look at some of the other requirements
before you make any more selections. First of all, you must complete
18 credit points of Part One or first year courses before you can
take Part Two courses. However, you can enroll in Part One courses
while you are doing your Part Two of your degree. (Q4) Normally to
complete a degree you will need 72 points. This generally takes
three years. If you fail any course, you can repeat it, and with
special permission, you may even take it a third time. (Q5) However,
a fourth attempt of any courses is never permitted. That brings me
to assessment. (Q6) All courses use the principle of continuous
assessment. And at least two methods of assessment must be used for
each course. And this assessment must also be on at least two pieces
of work. (Q7) Assessment methods include written work, such as
essays, assignments, projects, final examinations, tests, and
journals. (Q8) Tutorial assignments and tutorial participation are
also used as oral assessment as class participation in language
courses. (Q9) These assessments are based on a grading system which
goes from (high distinction 优秀), through credit and pass to
fail.
Yunda: That certainly makes it clear that I need to think about
my choice very carefully. Could I go and do that and come back and
see you this afternoon?
Vicky: Yes, but let's make it the first thing tomorrow. Then you
won't have to hang about waiting today. I just note down (记下)
the details from this form for you to give to the secretary as you
leave. And there is a copy for you.
Yunda: (Q10) Could we make it nine o'clock, so I can get a lift with
my friend.
Vicky: Yes. Nine o'clock is fine. And (Q11) it's about which
elective course you want to take, right?
Yunda: Yes, thanks, that's great. See you tomorrow.
Vicky: Bye. See you tomorrow.
That is the end of Section One. Now you have half a minute to
check your answers.
