　　PART I DICTATION

　　Freshmen’s Week

　　Britain has a well-respected higher education system/ and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world./ But to those who are new to this system,/ it can sometimes be confusing./ October is usually the busiest month in the academic calendar./ Universities have something called Freshmen’s Week for their newcomers./ It's a great opportunity to make new friends,/ join lots of clubs and settle into university life. However, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind,/ the prospect of meeting strangers in classrooms and dormitories can be worrying./ Where do you start? And who should you make friends with?/ Which clubs and society should you join?/ Luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you./ They worry about starting their university social life on the right foot./ So just take it all in slowly./ Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.

　　SECTION A CONVERSATIONS

　　Conversation One

　　W: OK. So let’s go through the travel details again. Two adults, eight days in Britain from April 26th to May 3rd (Q1), flying from Beijing to London, and back with Air China, and you’re in a double room.

　　M: Yes, that’s right. Umm, do you know what the flight times are?

　　W: The outward flight from Beijing is, ur … let me see, yes, 10:30 in the morning, and the return is, I think it’s early evening, yes, 7:15, 15 minutes past seven in the evening, local time, that is (Q1).

　　M: Right, that’s fine. Oh, sorry. I can’t remember what else you include in the price, apart from the air-tickets. Is it all meals or just breakfast?

　　W:Yes, it’s full board, so all meals, and transport from the airport to your hotel. Everything is included (Q2).

　　M: Good!

　　W: Now, can you tell me if you need travel insurance?

　　M: Yes, yes, we do.

　　W: OK. Well, that’s an extra 300 Yuan each, is that OK?

　　M: Well, there is no choice, is there? I mean we have to have it, don’t we? (Q3)

　　W: Yes, I’m afraid so.

　　M: Well, all right then.

　　Conversation Two

　　M: Pan-Pacific Tours. How can I help you?

　　W: Good afternoon! Can I speak to Mark, please?

　　M: Speaking.

　　W: Oh, hello, Mark! This is Linda from Johnson & Sons Events.

　　M: Hello, Lindia! What can I do for you?

　　W: I was just wanting to clear up a few details of the conference event we’re organizing.

　　M: Right! What do you need to know?

　　W: Well, first, I’ve got to have numbers, delegates to the conference, their husbands or wives and so on for the transport as much as anything else.

　　M: So far we’ve got 183 who’ve booked up and we might get a few more.

　　W: Does that include husbands and wives as well?

　　M: No really. I’ll e-mail you the exact number, because I haven’t counted them yet (Q4).

　　W: Fine.

　　M: And there’ll be 6 guest speakers.

　　W: 6?

　　M: Yes. Who want picking up from the airport by car, not in a fleet of buses?

　　W: Right! You’ll let me know when they are arriving, won’t you (Q5)?

　　M: Just as soon as I know.

　　W: Now, special events. You wanted a local style dance for the opening ceremony, didn’t you (Q6)?

　　M: That would be great! I’m sure everyone will enjoy it.

　　W: And we’ll have to fly the dancers in specially.

　　M: Sure!

　　W: And then after the welcoming feast, there’s going to be a piano performance, right (Q6)?

　　M: Yes, so we’ll have to contact the airline company about it. They are sponsoring the event (Q7).

　　W: So we’ll send the bill direct to them for it.

　　M: You could do.

　　W: Well, that’s all my queries for the time being.

　　M: OK. If you need anything else, just pick up the phone or drop me an email.

　　W: I will. Thanks. Bye!

　　M: Bye!

　　Conversation Three

　　W: Sorry, I’m late, James.

　　M: It’s all right, Mary. Where have you been?

　　W: At the police station.

　　M: Where?

　　W: At the police station. I’ve lost my briefcase.

　　M: Oh, no! What happened? Was there anything important in it?

　　W: Yes! My cheque book, all the papers I need for work, my appointment book (Q8).

　　M: Ah! That’s terrible! How did you lose your briefcase?

　　W: Well, as you know, I was with my client at a meeting all morning (Q9) and we had lunch together, after lunch I went shopping, and when I wanted to buy something I couldn’t find my cheque book, then I remembered that was in my briefcase and my briefcase was in my car.

　　M: So you went back to your car?

　　W: Yes, I went back to my car. No briefcase! But luckily my laptop was there (Q8).

　　M: And then you went to the police?

　　W: Not immediately. Before I went to the police station, I called my client’s office. No luck. They said the briefcase wasn’t there.

　　M: Excuse me! I’ve got a phone call. Yes, yes, there is. Mary Hopkins. Oh, really? I’ll tell her. It was very kind of you to call. Bye!

　　W: Who was that?

　　M: That was the manager of the River Sun Restaurant. Just after lunch today, he found a briefcase under a table, when he opened the case, he found a lot of papers. He said they had the name or our company on them, and he found a cheque book with the name of Hopkins on it --- M. Hopkins --- M for Mary (Q10).

　　W: Ah! Thank god!
