[00:59.23]Travel Books

[09:02.43]Now you have 1 minute to check through your work.
[10:06.33]That is the end of PART I Dictation.
[10:10.83]Part Two Listening Comprehension
[10:14.61]SECTION A TALK
[10:17.15]In this section you will hear a talk.
[10:20.52]You will hear the talk ONCE ONLY.
[10:23.66]While listening, you may look at ANSWER SHEET ONE
[10:27.21]and write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each gap.
[10:31.60]Make sure the word(s) you fill in is (are) both
[10:36.36]grammatically and semantically acceptable.
[10:40.14]You may use the blank sheet for note-taking.
[10:44.43]You have THIRTY seconds to preview the gap-filling task.
[11:20.04]Now listen to the talk.
[11:22.06]When it is over, you will be given TWO minutes to complete your work.
[11:28.07]Closeness and Personal Space
[11:31.37]Good morning, everyone.
[11:32.64]Today, we'll talk about closeness and personal space.
[11:36.16]Every culture has different levels of physical closeness
[11:39.31]appropriate to different types of relationship,
[11:41.70]and individuals learn these distances
[11:44.13]from the society in which they grew up.
[11:46.81]When someone violates an appropriate distance,
[11:49.24]people may feel uncomfortable or defensive.
[11:52.58]Their actions may well be open to misinterpretation.
[11:55.96]In Western society, four distances have been defined
[11:59.88]according to the relationship between the people involved.
[12:02.75]They are intimate distance, personal distance,
[12:05.72]social distance, and public distance.
[12:08.80]These four distances are associated
[12:11.43]with the four main types of relationship--
[12:13.57]intimate, personal, social and public.
[12:16.83]Now we'll talk about the four personal distances one by one.
[12:21.23]First, we'll begin with intimate distance.
[12:24.16]Intimate distance ranges from close contact,
[12:27.19]such as touching, to 45cm.
[12:30.46]In British society, it tends to be seen as
[12:33.78]an inappropriate distance for public behaviour
[12:36.28]and entering the intimate space of another person
[12:38.88]with whom you do not have a close relationship
[12:41.76]can be extremely disturbing.
[12:43.90]Next, let's look at the second type of distance,
[12:46.57]personal distance, which ranges from 45cm to 1.2m.
[12:52.17]The far phase of personal distance is considered
[12:55.28]to be the most appropriate for people
[12:57.36]holding a conversation.
[12:59.33]At this distance it is easy
[13:00.97]to see the other person's expressions
[13:02.89]and eye movements,
[13:04.20]as well as their overall body language.
[13:06.86]Handshaking can occur
[13:07.63]within the bounds of personal distance.
[13:10.20]OK, let's move onto the third type of personal distance,
[13:14.00]social distance, which covers the range from 1.2m to 3.6m.
[13:20.11]This is the normal distance for impersonal business,
[13:22.85]for example working together in the same room
[13:25.18]or during social gatherings.
[13:27.66]Seating is also important;
[13:29.44]communication is far more likely to be considered
[13:32.12]as a formal relationship
[13:33.84]if the interaction is carried out across a desk.
[13:37.48]In addition, if the seating arrangements are such
[13:40.19]that one person appears to look down on another,
[13:43.68]an effect of domination may be created.
[13:46.48]At a social distance, speech needs to be louder
[13:49.93]and eye contact remains essential to communication,
[13:52.90]otherwise feedback will be reduced
[13:55.55]and the interaction may end.
[13:57.48]Finally, the last type of personal distance is public distance,
[14:02.31]which ranges from 3.7m to 4.5m.
[14:06.41]Teachers and public speakers
[14:08.20]address groups at a public distance.
[14:10.74]At such distances exaggerated non-verbal communication
[14:14.62]is necessary for communication to be effective.
[14:17.71]Subtle facial expressions are lost at this distance,
[14:21.00]so clear hand gestures are often used as a substitute.
[14:25.39]Larger head movements
[14:26.68]are also typical of an experienced public speaker
[14:29.91]who is aware of changes in the way body language
[14:32.39]is perceived at longer distances.
[14:35.24]OK, today we've taken a brief look
[14:37.91]at the four personal distances
[14:39.84]associated with four main types of relationship.
[14:43.27]It is worth noting that these distances
[14:45.49]are considered the norm in Western society.
[14:48.34]Understanding these distances
[14:50.76]allows us to approach others
[14:52.63]in non-threatening and appropriate ways.
[14:55.01]We can understand how others feel about us,
[14:57.65]how they view the relationship and, if appropriate,
[15:00.98]adjust our behaviour accordingly.
[15:05.23]NOW you have TWO minutes to complete your work.
[17:09.47]This is the end of Section A Talk
[17:14.15]SECTION B CONVERSATIONS
[17:17.43]In this section you will hear two conversations.
[17:21.02]At the end of each conversation,
[17:23.55]five questions will be asked about what was said.
[17:28.10]Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken ONCE ONLY.
[17:33.93]After each question there will be a ten-second pause.
[17:38.21]During the pause, you should read the four choices of A, B, C and D,
[17:45.69]and mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO.
[17:51.86]You have thirty seconds to preview the questions.
[18:26.20]Now, listen to the conversations.
[18:29.59]Conversation One
[18:32.05]W: Good afternoon, Mr. White.
[18:34.64]You are in my American History 201 class, right?
[18:38.58]How can I help you today?
[18:41.13]M: It's about my term paper.
[18:43.02]I know it's due next Monday, but I was hoping...
[18:46.40]I don't think I can get it done by then.
[18:48.77]Could I please turn it in
[18:50.11]by the end of next week instead?
[18:52.11]I have a really good excuse.
[18:54.58]W: Oh, I'm sure you do!
[18:57.10]I've been teaching 33 years.
[18:59.78]Do you know how many excuses I've heard?
[19:02.40]"My dog ate my paper."
[19:04.33]"My roommate had a party so I couldn't concentrate."
[19:07.70]"I have seven papers due on the same day!"
[19:10.43]"I went home to see my parents and my car broke down."
[19:13.89]My favorite was a student who told me
[19:16.73]she "forgot" all about her term paper
[19:19.52]until the day before it was due.
[19:22.05]It's amazing she remembered to come to class.
[19:25.38]M: I didn't forget, madam.
[19:27.71]I've been working on the paper, really!
[19:29.98]Here, I brought my outline and a rough draft.
[19:33.27]It's just that...
[19:34.34]Well, a lot of things have been going on in my life,
[19:37.53]and I'm having trouble managing things.
[19:40.96]W: I see.
[19:42.59]You know, I assigned that paper four weeks ago,
[19:45.26]and I've been reminding students about it in each class.
[19:49.45]So, tell me your story.
[19:51.22]What's happening in your life?
[19:53.75]M: First, about two weeks ago,
[19:55.62]my roommate found out his mother was real sick.
[19:58.72]So he's been really upset, and, uh,well,
[20:01.57]I went home with him for a couple of days to see his mom.
[20:04.65]That caused me to miss biology lab,
[20:07.65]and I have a huge biology final coming up on Tuesday
[20:11.51]that I really need to study for this weekend.
[20:13.94]Then I got the flu last week, and missed a day of class.
[20:18.23]I tried to work on your paper that day,
[20:20.50]but I really felt horrible...
[20:22.93]W: OK, I can understand that.
[20:26.36]I'm glad that you're helping your roommate
[20:28.44]through a tough time.
[20:29.80]That's more important than school work.
[20:32.13]But all this seems to have happened recently.
[20:35.67]What about the two weeks
[20:37.50]after I first assigned the term paper?
[20:40.16]M: I guess I didn't use that time very well.
[20:43.51]I kind of put off getting started on it.
[20:45.94]W: Yes, you did. You know,
[20:48.42]if I had a dollar for every time
[20:50.82]I've heard a student say that...
[20:52.77]M: I'm sorry, Professor.
[20:54.78]I've learned my lesson.
[20:56.29]If I had spent just a little bit of time
[20:58.92]each week on the paper,
[21:00.09]I could have had it done on time.
[21:02.48]I know now that I need to plan for unexpected things.
[21:06.06]W: You seem like a bright,
[21:07.42]conscientious young man.
[21:09.60]So I'll tell you what.
[21:11.36]This time you can turn in your paper
[21:14.32]no later than 9 a.m.Friday,
[21:17.55]right here on my office desk.
[21:20.02]M: Thank you, Professor! You bet I will.
[21:23.52]This is the end of Conversation One.
[21:25.94]Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.
[21:30.90]1. Why does the man visit the woman?
[21:45.82]2. What is the man's excuse?
[21:59.51]3. According to the man, what happened to his roommate?
[22:15.20]4. What lesson has the man learned from talking to the woman?
[22:31.15]5. What does the woman think of the man?
[22:45.90]Conversation Two
[22:48.19]M: Hi! Welcome to WebWare. Sit down please.
[22:52.17]W: Thanks, nice to see you again.
[22:54.80]M: You too.
[22:56.52]So, you said you wanted to come in
[22:58.80]and have a chat with me before you start your work here.
[23:01.98]Tell me about it.
[23:03.65]W: Yeah, I just want to have a look round
[23:05.94]and ask a few more questions.
[23:08.36]I'm wondering whether it is okay for me to do so.
[23:11.78]M: Of course, just fire away with your questions!
[23:15.62]W: Well, first of all, I was surprised
[23:18.04]when I received the e-mail about the offer.
[23:20.83]Thank you for trusting me,
[23:22.14]and I am delighted to receive the job offer...
[23:25.68]M: Good! And we are delighted to offer it to you.
[23:29.01]W: But... before I sign the contract
[23:31.81]there are one or two specifics I want to talk about.
[23:35.95]M: Ok... "specifics"?
[23:38.29]Tell me what they are.
[23:40.35]W: Well. I read from your last e-mail that there is a pay scale,
[23:45.00]instead of a fixed salary. Is that right?
[23:47.99]M: Yes, you're quite right about it.
[23:51.07]As a new employee in our company,
[23:52.64]you'd be at the lower end of the pay scale.
[23:55.64]And of course, things get changed later
[23:58.42]when you continuously bring contribution to the company.
[24:02.31]W: But taking my experience into account...
[24:05.39]M: Well, you haven't had that much experience--
[24:08.04]we see you as an investment...
[24:11.41]W: But that salary would only be
[24:12.75]a little more than I'm making now.
[24:15.60]So, instead of asking for a higher level on the pay scale,
[24:19.19]I thought this could be compensated
[24:21.11]by adding certain bonuses,
[24:23.54]for instance if I make certain sales targets,
[24:26.32]or even break them,
[24:28.76]I would be looking for a good cash payment,
[24:31.08]or stock options in the company.
[24:33.42]Would it be possible?
[24:35.45]M: Well, that is something
[24:37.23]we sometimes offer to senior members of staff,
[24:40.36]but to show good faith
[24:41.87]I'll provisionally offer you the bonus scheme,
[24:45.02]but I'll have to okay it with Philip first.
[24:47.93]W: That's fine.
[24:49.24]One more thing, I also see there are 25 days holiday.
[24:53.95]M: Yes. That's standard.
[24:56.94]W: It's not very much for a high pressure job though...
[25:00.88]M: I'm sorry I can't offer you any more holiday.
[25:03.81]Only the staff who work here for over three years
[25:08.00]can get extra days,
[25:09.81]so you will get more holiday
[25:11.39]after you work here for a longer time.
[25:14.14]W: No, I don't mean that.
[25:15.76]But I was wondering if I could delay the start date--
[25:19.01]so instead of starting a week from now,
[25:21.43]as we discussed, I could start in a month's time?
[25:25.16]M: You're a tough negotiator, Madison!
[25:28.16]W: That's one of the reasons you hired me!
[25:31.05]M: Yes, of course. Okay, I think we can do that.
[25:34.85]I'll look forward to seeing you in a month,
[25:36.82]and earning those bonuses!
[25:40.21]This is the end of Conversation Two.
[25:43.03]Questions 6-10 are based on Conversation Two.
[25:47.58]6. Why does the woman go to see the man?
[26:02.69]7. What does the man say about the pay scale in his company?
[26:18.34]8. What requirement does the woman make about the salary?
[26:33.48]9. What is the holiday policy in the company?
[26:48.38]10. What does the man think of the woman?
[27:02.35]This is the end of Part Two Listening Comprehension.
