Conversation Two:
M: Sarah, you work in the admissions office, don’t you?
W: Yes, I' ve been here ten years as assistant director.
M: Really? What does that involve?
W: Well, T m in charge of all the admissions of postgraduate students in the university.
M: Only postgraduates?
W: Yes, postgraduates only. I have nothing at all to do with undergraduates.
M: Do you find that you get particular-sort of...
different national groups? I mean, do you get large numbers from Latin America or...
W: Yes. Well, of all the students enrolled last year, nearly half were
from overseas. They were from African countries, the Far East, the
Middle East, and Latin America.
M: Em. But have you been doing just that for the last 10 years, or,
have you done other things?
W: Well, I' ve been doing the same job. Er, before that, I was secretary of the medical school at Birmingham, and further back, I worked in the local government.
M: Oh, I see.
W: So T’ve done different types of things.
M: Yes, indeed. How do you imagine your job might develop in the future? Can you imagine shifting into a different kind of responsibility or doing something...
W: Oh, yeah, from October 1,I' II be doing an entirely different job.
There' s going to be more committee work. I mean, more policy work, and less dealing with students, unfortunately-T II miss my contact with students.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you' ve just heard:
23. What is the woman' s present position?
24. What do we learn about the postgraduates enrolled last year in the woman' s university?
25. What will the woman' s new job be like?
复合式听写原文
Students' pressure sometimes comes from their parents. Most parents are well meaning, but some of them aren' i very helpful with the problems their sons and daughters have in adjusting to college. And a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children' s difficulties. For one thing, parents are often not aware of the kinds of problems their children face. They don' t realize that the competition is keener, that the required standards of work are higher, and that their children may not be prepared for the change. Accustomed to seeing A' s and B' s on the high school report cards, they may be upset when their children' s first semester college grades are below that level. At their kindest, they may gently inquire why John or Mary isn' t doing better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. At their worst, they may threaten to take their children out of college, or cut off funds. Sometimes parents regard their children as extensions of themselves, and think it only right and natural that they determine what their children do with their lives. In their involvement and identification with their children, they forget that everyone is different, and that each person must develop in his or her own way. They forget that their children, who are now young adults, must be the ones responsible for what they do and what they are.
