[10:30.65]Part Two Listening Comprehension
[10:34.58]SECTION A TALK
[10:37.41]In this section you will hear a talk.
[10:40.31]You will hear the talk ONCE ONLY.
[10:43.30]While listening, you may look at ANSWER SHEET ONE
[10:47.10]and write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each gap.
[10:51.70]Make sure the word(s) you fill in is (are) both
[10:56.78]grammatically and semantically acceptable.
[11:00.38]You may use the blank sheet for note-taking.
[11:03.96]You have THIRTY seconds to preview the gap-filling task.
[11:40.64]Now listen to the talk.
[11:42.53]When it is over, you will be given TWO minutes to complete your work.
[11:47.70]Culture Shock
[11:49.02]Good morning, everyone.
[11:51.24]Today, we'll talk about culture shock.
[11:54.23]Culture shock is a very real experience for many people
[11:58.73] who move to another country.
[12:01.46]Anyone who has lived or studied
[12:03.47]or even traveled extensively in another country
[12:06.81]has tasted and lived through culture shock.
[12:10.68]There are several stages one goes through
[12:12.86]when adjusting to a new culture.
[12:15.12]Before we undertake the five stages of culture shock,
[12:19.14]let's look at what culture shock is and its signs and symptoms.
[12:23.97]Culture shock is defined the disorientation experienced
[12:28.63]when suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture.
[12:32.89]This is a good summary; however,
[12:35.75]let's break it down a bit further.
[12:38.83]Some of the common signs
[12:40.20]and symptoms of culture shock often include:
[12:43.90]a feeling of sadness and loneliness,
[12:47.04]an over-concern about your health, feelings of anger and depression,
[12:52.23]idealizing your own culture, and feeling lost or confused, etc.
[12:57.41]However, the symptoms are quite individual and unpredictable
[13:02.72]as people experience culture shock in different ways.
[13:06.80]Now, let's look at the five-step culture shock model.
[13:11.65]Step 1 is the Honeymoon Stage.
[13:15.20]Like any new experience,
[13:17.59]there's a feeling of intense happiness and excitement
[13:21.42]when you first arrive to a new country
[13:23.61]and you respect and are amazed at the differences you see and experience.
[13:29.20]During this stage, you still feel close to everything familiar back home.
[13:34.66]Step 2 is the Distress Stage.
[13:38.48]Now, everything you're experiencing no longer feels new.
[13:42.88]In fact, it's starting to feel like a thick wall
[13:46.25]that's preventing you from experiencing things.
[13:49.07]You feel confused, alone
[13:51.99]and realize that the familiar support systems are not easily accessible.
[13:57.46]Step 3 is Re-integration Stage.
[14:00.24]During this stage, you start refusing
[14:04.18]to accept the differences you encounter.
[14:07.17]You start to idealize life "back home"
[14:09.91]and compare your current culture to what is familiar.
[14:13.26]You dislike the culture, the language, and the food.
[14:17.29]You reject it as inferior.
[14:19.84]You may even develop some prejudices towards the new culture.
[14:24.13]But you don't have to worry about this.
[14:26.40]In fact, you're adjusting.
[14:28.62]This is actually a pretty common reaction to anything new.
[14:32.98]Step 4 is Autonomy Stage.
[14:36.06]This is the first stage in acceptance.
[14:39.34]You start to accept the differences
[14:42.12]and feel like you can begin to live with them.
[14:44.80]You feel more confident
[14:46.46]and better able to cope with any problems that may arise.
[14:50.60]You no longer feel isolated
[14:53.13]and instead you're able to look at the world around you
[14:56.86]and appreciate where you are.
[14:59.00]Step 5 is Independence Stage.
[15:02.83]In this stage, you embrace the new culture and see everything in a new,
[15:07.68]yet realistic light.
[15:10.00]You feel comfortable, confident,
[15:12.74]and able to make decisions based on your own preferences.
[15:16.77]You no longer feel alone and isolated.
[15:20.01]You appreciate both the differences and similarities of your new culture.
[15:25.07]OK, to sum up briefly, today we've looked at the symptoms
[15:29.28]and the five stages of culture shock.
[15:32.16]I hope it will help you better adjust to a new culture.
[15:36.86]NOW you have TWO minutes to complete your work.
[17:41.74]This is the end of Section A talk
[17:45.28]SECTION B CONVERSATIONS
[17:48.85]In this section you will hear two conversations.
[17:52.54]At the end of each conversation,
[17:55.36]five questions will be asked about what was said.
[17:58.90]Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken ONCE ONLY.
[18:04.79]After each question there will be a ten-second pause.
[18:09.43]During the pause, you should read the four choices of A, B, C and D,
[18:17.05]and mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO.
[18:23.31]You have thirty seconds to preview the questions.
[18:58.48]Now, listen to the conversations.
[19:01.06]Conversation One
[19:02.63]W: Hi. Thanks for coming to the interview today.
[19:07.03]It's nice to meet you.
[19:08.39]M: Thank you.
[19:09.87]W: To begin with,
[19:11.28]why don't you tell us a little about yourself?
[19:14.42]M: Okay. I've always been interested in teaching
[19:17.71]in a language program like this,
[19:19.67]and I graduated with a degree in English
[19:21.92]and another in psychology eight years ago,
[19:24.86]and then I landed my first job overseas in Japan.
[19:29.06]W: Oh, wow. That's pretty impressive.
[19:32.65]What did you do there?
[19:34.16]M: Well, I worked full time,
[19:36.08]for a private language school in Tokyo
[19:38.74]for the first two years,
[19:39.93]and then I found a job at a community college.
[19:43.68]There, I taught English and culinary arts.
[19:47.02]W: You taught cooking classes?
[19:49.75]M: I know it sounds like an unusual combination,
[19:52.78]but I completed a program in culinary arts
[19:55.60]before I got my English and psychology degrees.
[19:59.04]W: Wow. You've done a lot.
[20:01.99]So, how did you teach and what exactly did you do?
[20:05.47]M: Well, many of my students wanted to become chefs in restaurants,
[20:10.03]or they wanted to start their own restaurants,
[20:13.52]and in our area, there were many tourist spots.
[20:16.59]A lot of tourists came to that particular area,
[20:19.01]and so with English, they would be able to communicate
[20:22.22]with both the suppliers and the customers,
[20:24.94]and so I taught them English and cooking at the same time.
[20:28.79]W: Wow. That's interesting.
[20:30.86]So, why did you return to the United States?
[20:33.65]How long have you been back?
[20:35.68]M: I've been back for probably about a year now.
[20:38.91]W: What brought you back then?
[20:41.74]M: Well, one of my former students opened a sushi restaurant in town,
[20:46.35]and he asked me to help him to explore the local market.
[20:50.48]W: So you're working there still?
[20:52.76]M: Nope. I want to return to teaching.
[20:55.34]I'm now working as a therapist at a treatment center
[20:58.52]for teenagers struggling with depression and other mental disorders.
[21:02.46]W: Wow. That would be a really interesting job.
[21:06.31]M: Yes, it is.
[21:07.98]W: To be honest, we have fifteen people
[21:11.33]who are applying for this position.
[21:12.73]Could you tell me why you would be the best person for this job?
[21:17.09]M: First, I understand that different students have different learning styles,
[21:22.00]and for that reason,
[21:24.08]I have used iPads, video, music, cooking, drama, role plays, and games
[21:30.50]to reach every student. And second,
[21:32.98]I have a background in psychological counseling and advising,
[21:37.25]skills that are often needed in working with international students.
[21:42.42]W: Okay. Thank you for your time.
[21:44.61]We have two rounds of interviews,
[21:46.73]and we will contact you on Friday and let you know
[21:50.06]whether or not you'll be coming back for the second round of interviews.
[21:53.75]M: Okay. I hope we can meet again.
[21:57.47]This is the end of Conversation One.
[21:59.95]Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.
[22:05.10]1. What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
[22:20.08]2. What was the man's first job in Japan?
[22:34.60]3. What kind of students did the man teach in the community college?
[22:50.39]4. What is the man's present job?
[23:04.63]5. What do we learn about the man's teaching style?
[23:19.93]Conversation Two
[23:21.05]M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Can I take the test now? I just...
[23:25.34]W: Excuse me? What do you mean?
[23:28.01]The test ended 10 minutes ago,
[23:30.46]and you weren't there to take it. Sorry.
[23:33.14]M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Come on. That's not fair.
[23:36.78]W: What do you mean by that?
[23:39.04]Everyone else was there, taking the test.
[23:42.29]So, why weren't you in class?
[23:44.93]M: Uh, my bus didn't come this morning on time.
[23:47.80]You know it rained heavily this morning.
[23:50.23]That's why.
[23:51.51]W: Um. Are you sure?
[23:53.08]Your roommate, Sam, made it to class,
[23:55.81]and he said you were still in bed an hour ago.
[23:58.89]M: Well... Sam might be right about that...
[24:01.53]Anyway, I really need to take the test, Mrs. Jones.
[24:05.49]W: Wait. Don't you realize that you just lied to me?
[24:09.17]M: Well, listen. Mrs. Jones.
[24:10.98]Please listen to me.
[24:12.26]My alarm didn't go off this morning,
[24:14.28]so it's not my fault I came late.
[24:16.31]W: So, you're blaming your alarm clock again?
[24:18.98]It's still your responsibility to be here,
[24:22.32]regardless of the alarm clock.
[24:24.81]By the way,
[24:25.94]wasn't that your excuse the last two times you missed class?
[24:29.75]M: But Mrs. Jones...
[24:31.63]W: Listen. You know the policy of our program.
[24:35.77]If you miss a test for an unexcused reason...
[24:39.06]and a lie is definitely unexcused,
[24:42.20]then you get a zero on the test.
[24:44.73]There are no exceptions.
[24:46.39]Do I make myself understood?
[24:49.19]M: Mrs. Jones. Why don't you want to help me?
[24:52.49]You never help me.
[24:53.91]I mean I really need to pass this class and get the credits.
[24:58.58]W: No, no. no. Listen to yourself.
[25:01.10]You're playing what we call the victim.
[25:04.00]You made some bad choices,
[25:05.76]and now you have to accept the consequences.
[25:09.10]Remember: When you point your finger at someone else,
[25:12.74]like me in this case, three fingers are pointing back at you.
[25:17.78]M: But Mrs. Jones. I will lose my scholarship
[25:20.96]if I do poorly in the class;
[25:22.79]my parents will be really disappointed in me.
[25:25.22]I don't want to let them down.
[25:27.84]W: I'm really sorry, but that's not my problem.
[25:31.12]M: Oh, Mrs. Jones!
[25:33.05]W: I'm sorry I can't help you with that.
[25:36.36]Don't try to shift the blame here.
[25:39.02]M: Mrs. Jones, please...
[25:41.09]W: Gentleman, you painted yourself into a corner.
[25:45.48]You need to be accountable for your own actions
[25:48.67]instead of trying to weasel out of your responsibility.
[25:52.57]While you aren't doing well in my class though,
[25:56.25]I must say I almost have to give you an A grade
[25:59.13]for trying to dodge the outcome of your bad choices.
[26:02.81]M: Mrs. Jones, please... Mrs. Jones...
[26:05.74]W: Listen. You are now learning one thing.
[26:09.20]M: What?
[26:10.61]W: My name.
[26:12.33]M: Ah...
[26:14.21]This is the end of Conversation Two.
[26:16.89]Questions 6-10 are based on Conversation Two.
[26:21.23]6. Why does the woman mention the man's roommate?
[26:36.57]7. What is the excuse the man often uses for missing class?
[26:52.70]8. What is the policy in class according to the woman?
[27:08.11]9. What will probably happen if the man fails the test?
[27:23.50]10. What is the man's major problem according to the woman?
[27:38.94]This is the end of Part Two Listening Comprehension
