　　[01:21.76]Black cats are supposed

　　[01:30.77]a witch is after you!

　　[01:32.63]On the other hand,

　　[01:34.22]if one crosses your path and continues

　　[01:37.38]then it's good luck because it hasn't noticed you.

　　[01:41.17]However, in some places the beliefs are different--

　　[09:14.20]Now you have 1 minute to check through your work.

　　[10:17.24]That is the end of PART I Dictation.

　　[10:21.43]PART II LISTENING COMPREHENSION

　　[10:25.32]SECTION A TALK

　　[10:28.24]In this section you will hear a talk.

　　[10:31.28]You will hear the talk ONCE ONLY.

　　[10:34.13]While listening,

　　[10:35.62]you may look at ANSWER SHEET ONE

　　[10:38.02]and write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each gap.

　　[10:42.34]Make sure the word(s) you fill in

　　[10:45.68]is (are) both grammatically and semantically acceptable.

　　[10:51.13]You may use the blank sheet for note-taking.

　　[10:55.02]You have THIRTY seconds to preview the gap-filling task.

　　[11:30.78]Now listen to the talk.

　　[11:32.68]When it is over, you will be given

　　[11:34.74]TWO minutes to complete your work.

　　[11:39.07]Writing Public Speeches

　　[11:41.22]Good morning, everyone.

　　[11:42.76]Today we will talk about

　　[11:43.82]how to write public speeches.

　　[11:46.06]First, we'll survey the three types of speeches,

　　[11:49.09]and then we'll explore each speech in depth,

　　[11:51.84]so you'll be able to write the speeches you need.

　　[11:54.19]Now, let's look at each type of speech more closely.

　　[11:57.62]The first type is speeches that inform.

　　[12:00.78]Informative speeches show, clarify, and inform.

　　[12:05.37]To give the audience the information they've come for,

　　[12:08.13]you need to learn how to focus on a topic,

　　[12:10.94]decide on an effective method of organization,

　　[12:13.84]and include sufficient facts.

　　[12:16.39]Always start with the topic.

　　[12:18.43]As you plan your informative speech, ask yourself,

　　[12:22.07]"What is the one idea

　　[12:23.43]that I want to convey to my listeners?"

　　[12:26.06]That's your theme.

　　[12:27.31]Effective themes should appeal to you

　　[12:29.69]as well as your audience.

　　[12:31.68]Once you've settled on a theme,

　　[12:33.73]it's time to select a method of organization

　　[12:36.11]to make sure your speech conveys its purpose.

　　[12:38.96]Possibilities include cause and effect, problem

　　[12:42.13]and solution, chronological order, and numerical order.

　　[12:45.94]Moreover, informational speeches are content-oriented,

　　[12:50.18]but that doesn't mean they're dull or dry.

　　[12:52.78]So specific facts are the backbone of

　　[12:55.59]any informational speech.

　　[12:57.42]To get the facts to back up your point,

　　[12:59.47]read widely on your topic.

　　[13:01.89]Check reference books, the Internet,

　　[13:04.20]and experts in the field.

　　[13:05.97]Now the second type is speeches that persuade.

　　[13:09.65]Persuasive speeches are designed

　　[13:11.50]to move your audience to action.

　　[13:13.59]You can approach a persuasive speech

　　[13:15.55]from different angles.

　　[13:16.95]For example, you can use your own credibility

　　[13:19.75]to strengthen your argument.

　　[13:21.39]Or, you can appeal to

　　[13:22.86]your audience's emotions or reason.

　　[13:25.93]There are three basic types of persuasive speeches.

　　[13:29.07]The first type is speeches of fact.

　　[13:31.78]In this type of persuasive speech,

　　[13:34.02]you try to prove that something is or is not so,

　　[13:37.41]or that something did or did not happen.

　　[13:40.42]In the second type, speeches of value,

　　[13:43.04]you try to prove good or bad, better or worse.

　　[13:46.71]The third type is speeches of policy.

　　[13:49.37]In this case, you try to prove that

　　[13:51.53]something should or should not be done.

　　[13:54.16]Now, let's move onto the last type of public speeches,

　　[13:57.92]speeches that entertain.

　　[13:59.96]For centuries, speakers have been called upon to

　　[14:03.38]"say a few words" at various social events,

　　[14:06.13]such as club meetings, dinners,

　　[14:08.27]parties, graduations, weddings.

　　[14:10.97]On these occasions,

　　[14:12.13]you're speaking to fulfill a social need.

　　[14:15.07]When you write an entertaining speech,

　　[14:17.33]always start by assessing your audience.

　　[14:19.98]You need to consider their likes and dislikes.

　　[14:23.11]After you complete your audience analysis,

　　[14:26.06]select a central theme,

　　[14:27.50]just as you do with informative

　　[14:29.24]and persuasive speeches.

　　[14:30.99]But remember that your audience

　　[14:32.70]just wants to have fun.

　　[14:34.49]So your overall theme should be optimistic,

　　[14:37.33]uncomplicated and lively.

　　[14:39.63]However, every entertaining speech,

　　[14:41.92]no matter how light and amusing,

　　[14:43.97]should have serious points.

　　[14:46.31]OK, today we look at

　　[14:48.02]the three types of public speeches

　　[14:50.11]and the approach of each type.

　　[14:51.96]I hope the talk today

　　[14:53.32]will help you write effective speeches.

　　[14:57.35]Now you have two minutes to complete your work.

　　[17:01.74]This is the end of Section A TALK.

　　[17:05.77]SECTION B CONVERSATIONS

　　[17:09.30]In this section

　　[17:10.56]you will hear two conversations.

　　[17:13.41]At the end of each conversation,

　　[17:15.59]five questions will be asked about what was said.

　　[17:19.39]Both the conversation and the questions

　　[17:23.03]will be spoken ONCE ONLY.

　　[17:25.47]After each question there

　　[17:27.41]will be a ten-second pause.

　　[17:30.06]During the pause, you should read

　　[17:32.87]the four choices of A, B, C and D,

　　[17:38.06]and mark the best answer to each question

　　[17:40.94]on ANSWER SHEET TWO.

　　[17:44.10]You have thirty seconds to preview the questions.

　　[18:18.51]Now, listen to the conversations.

　　[18:21.75]Conversation One

　　[18:23.75]M: Good afternoon.

　　[18:25.25]W: Good afternoon.

　　[18:27.01]Welcome to the Carlton Hotel.

　　[18:29.31]How can I help you?

　　[18:31.10]M: We'd like to book a couple of rooms.

　　[18:33.55]W: Ok, sir. So for how many nights is that?

　　[18:37.73]M: Three nights.

　　[18:39.54]W: Who are the rooms for?

　　[18:41.99]M: I'm here with my wife and two friends.

　　[18:45.18]W: Do you want two double rooms?

　　[18:48.03]M: We want one double room

　　[18:49.93]and two single rooms.

　　[18:51.88]How much are they per night?

　　[18:54.08]W: Let me see.

　　[18:55.43]The double room is 60 dollars per night.

　　[18:58.48]The single room is 40 dollars.

　　[19:01.00]M: And that includes everything?

　　[19:03.50]W: That price includes tax.

　　[19:05.90]Also, if you want to have breakfast in the hotel,

　　[19:09.49]we charge only 2 extra dollars per person.

　　[19:12.97]There's also a swimming pool in the backyard

　　[19:15.79]that our hotel guests can use for free.

　　[19:18.58]And we have a hair salon

　　[19:20.22]and a spa room on the second floor.

　　[19:22.92]You can get a discount after you check in here.

　　[19:26.01]M: I don't think we need breakfast here.

　　[19:28.50]Can I pay by credit card?

　　[19:30.55]W: Yes, sure. Can I have your full name?

　　[19:34.35]M: Yes, it's Michael Fernsby.

　　[19:38.00]W: Those rooms are booked for you then.

　　[19:40.34]M: Ok. I know we're a bit out of town here.

　　[19:44.34]Can you give me some information

　　[19:45.98]about getting into the center of town?

　　[19:48.61]We'll probably head in tomorrow.

　　[19:51.01]W: Well, you could drive in,

　　[19:52.76]but the parking is not great in town.

　　[19:55.56]It's difficult to get a space

　　[19:57.29]and is quite expensive

　　[19:58.56]if you are staying there all day.

　　[20:01.41]M: Yes, we'll probably be there most of the day.

　　[20:05.40]W: In that case, taking a taxi

　　[20:07.29]or the bus would be better.

　　[20:09.69]M: How much is a taxi?

　　[20:11.46]W: Into town it will be about 12 dollars.

　　[20:14.45]It only takes about 10 minutes.

　　[20:16.90]M: Right, I see. What about the bus?

　　[20:20.04]How much is that and where does it go from?

　　[20:23.04]W: It's only 2 dollars per person.

　　[20:25.59]It's not far from here.

　　[20:27.18]You go out of here,

　　[20:28.57]turn right on to Oak Tree Avenue,

　　[20:31.07]and it's about a five minute walk down the road.

　　[20:34.43]The bus ride is about 20 minutes.

　　[20:37.07]M: Oh, ok. We have four people.

　　[20:40.21]Taxi sounds like a better option.

　　[20:42.85]W: Or you could walk actually

　　[20:44.50]if you like walking.

　　[20:46.20]Part of the way you can walk

　　[20:47.64]through the nice park which is fairly popular

　　[20:50.00]with visitors to York. It's about 30 minutes

　　[20:53.24]but it's quite pleasant.

　　[20:55.43]M: Taking a walk in the morning

　　[20:57.33]and getting to know this community.

　　[20:59.28]That sounds great.

　　[21:00.89]We would take a taxi tomorrow

　　[21:02.33]and do some shopping in town,

　　[21:04.58]but I'm definitely walking

　　[21:06.13]to that park during our stay here.

　　[21:08.32]Thank you for mentioning that.

　　[21:10.46]W: Ok, no problem. Thanks for booking with us.

　　[21:14.78]This is the end of Conversation One.

　　[21:17.83]Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.

　　[21:22.81]1. What kinds of rooms does the man want to book?

　　[21:37.49]2. What does the room price include according to the woman?

　　[21:52.37]3. What do we learn about the hotel from the conversation?

　　[22:07.19]4. How will the man most probably go into town the next day?

　　[22:22.65]5. What will the man probably do during his stay?

　　[22:37.36]Conversation Two

　　[22:39.65]M: Hello, can I help you?

　　[22:42.06]W: Hello! I was wondering

　　[22:43.95]if Professor Fuller's is here.

　　[22:45.85]Um... I mean is this her office?

　　[22:48.50]M: Yeah, you are in the right place.

　　[22:51.06]Her room is over there,

　　[22:52.50]but I'm afraid she's not in the office at the moment.

　　[22:55.93]W: Do you know when she'll be back?

　　[22:58.43]M: Let me check. Today is Wednesday

　　[23:01.62]and she doesn't have classes...

　　[23:03.97]W: Excuse me, sir. But I think today is Tuesday.

　　[23:08.01]M: Oh, I'm sorry. I'm really not myself today.

　　[23:11.70]So, today is Tuesday.

　　[23:13.29]Professor Fuller is teaching all morning.

　　[23:15.79]I think she may come back after lunch.

　　[23:18.08]And you can... oh, no...

　　[23:20.27]Almost forget that! I'm sorry.

　　[23:22.47]There is this academic conference on biology

　　[23:25.36]that she plans to attend.

　　[23:26.86]I'm pretty sure

　　[23:27.90]that she will be out of town this afternoon.

　　[23:30.54]Can I leave a message for you?

　　[23:32.60]W: Actually, I was hoping to talk to her.

　　[23:35.45]I don't know if she would accept any more students

　　[23:38.23]into her Biology 202 class.

　　[23:41.47]M: Well, you should have access

　　[23:43.59]to the online class registration system to find it out.

　　[23:47.33]W: I know. It's already full.

　　[23:49.87]That's why I got this form from the registrar.

　　[23:52.87]If Professor Fuller says yes to me

　　[23:55.19]and signs this form, I still can take the class.

　　[23:59.13]M: Biology 202 is a very popular class,

　　[24:02.58]especially when she teaches it.

　　[24:04.81]W: I know. I'm hoping she'll let me in

　　[24:07.86]even though the class is full.

　　[24:09.87]I'm a senior this year, and, uh...

　　[24:12.63]I still need 2 credits on science courses.

　　[24:15.69]This is my last chance...

　　[24:18.53]M: Usually most students

　　[24:20.06]fulfill their science requirement

　　[24:21.91]the first and second year.

　　[24:23.91]Your advisor didn't say anything?

　　[24:26.43]W: Yeah, to be honest,

　　[24:27.98]she's been after me for a while.

　　[24:29.88]But I'm not really a big fan of science classes.

　　[24:33.32]Statistics, labs...

　　[24:34.76]all those things just seem to be beyond me.

　　[24:38.04]So I kept putting it off.

　　[24:40.03]M: Well, you could leave the form with me

　　[24:42.17]and I'll see if she'll sign it for you.

　　[24:44.88]W: You know, I appreciate that,

　　[24:46.74]but maybe I should explain the problem

　　[24:48.89]to her in person.

　　[24:50.34]I don't just want to take this class

　　[24:52.45]because I need 2 credit points.

　　[24:54.57]Many of my friends have recommended this class.

　　[24:57.84]M: Um... here's an idea.

　　[24:59.83]Why don't you stick a note

　　[25:01.46]explaining your situation

　　[25:03.10]under her door and ask her to call you

　　[25:05.69]if she needs more information?

　　[25:07.64]W: That sounds like a great idea.

　　[25:10.03]And I can leave the form

　　[25:11.28]with you if you still don't mind.

　　[25:13.62]M: Sure. I'll make sure she sees it

　　[25:16.14]when she comes back to office tomorrow.

　　[25:18.54]This is the end of Conversation Two.

　　[25:21.92]Questions 6-10 are based on Conversation Two.

　　[25:26.86]6. When does the conversation take place?

　　[25:41.81]7. What does Professor Fuller plan to do in the afternoon?

　　[25:57.25]8. Why does the student want to meet Professor Fuller?

　　[26:12.43]9. Why doesn't the woman fulfill her science requirement?

　　[26:27.94]10. How does the student contact with the professor in the end?

　　[26:44.08]This is the end of Part Two Listening Comprehension.
