【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 onds).Now listen carefully to the discussion and answer questions 11 to 15.Sarah: Hi, JohnJohn: Hello, Sarah. What are you doing in here? Haven39。t all you exams finished?Sarah: Well, yes, they have, but I39。ve got to make my decisions for next year. I still haven39。t chosen what courses I39。m going to do.John: That39。s why I39。m here. Why don39。t we have a look through the brochure together?Sarah: That39。s a good idea. I39。m not sure about some of these courses on medieval history.John: No. In fact, I39。m not sure about the whole second year. I was talking to Peter Lily the other day you know, he39。s just finished the second year and he was saying that the work load is higher in (Q11) the second year because you have to read all these medieval documents in Latin (Q12). I mean, the first year39。s been pretty hard but next year will be worse. There are more assignments in the second year it goes up to six a year for each course, doesn39。t it?Sarah: Yes But we39。ve got the experience of the first year to build on, so it must get easier. And there isn39。t so much secondary material in the second year. There aren39。t so many books about the medieval period.John: Don39。t you believe it! I think this year39。s going to be hard work (Q13)!Sarah: Well, perhaps I39。d better give up my job then.John: You39。re working as well?Sarah: Yeah, I39。ve been working in the same place for over a year now. Only parttime, you know. Just Saturday mornings in the market. I mean, it doesn39。t pay much, but it39。s interesting and it gives me a bit of extra cash for my text books (Q14). Anyway, what about these courses? How many do we have to take? I remember Professor bolt saying something about four courses in the second year, is that right? Or do we have to do a certain number of credits?John: Both. We have to select four courses (Q15), but for some courses there are two parts. They count as one course. It39。s six in total, because everyone has to do Europe 11001500 and Chronicles of the Church. Anyway, when you39。ve chosen your four courses, they should add up to 80 credits. Have you got the course brochure there?Sarah: Yes. Look ... under ... second year history ... There it is.You now have some time to read questions 16 to 20 (pause for 20 seconds).Now listen to the rest of the discussion and answer questions 16 to 20.John: Right. Yes, look. Most of these courses are 20 credits each, except for the two short courses about the Crusades (Q16). They39。re 10 each. Now, Medieval Society ... Hmm. What do you think?Sarah: Well, actually, I think it looks really good. Dr Smith is OK, and you don39。t have to buy any books except a study pack. The best thing is, there are no special requirements (Q17) no Latin or medieval English!John: The next one is Development of Technology with Mr Mills. Ah ... this is a good one. Peter remended it. It39。s all about the way printing developed, and early science. In fact, I think I could get a copy of Bouchier39。s 39。History of Science39。 (Q18) from him. That means I wouldn39。t have to buy it.Sarah: That does look interesting. And that doesn39。t have any special requirements either. What39。s next ...? Ah, here they are. 10 credits each, the Crusades. You need French to do them. I suppose a lot of the documents are in French.John: That39。s strange look. There are different teachers for each part. I expect that39。s why it39。s two modules. Dr Clare does the first part (Q19), but it39。s Dr Shaker and Professor Lord for the second one.Sarah: So that only leaves Peasants and Kings, with Dr Reeves. ... Oh, look, you have to know French (Q20) for this one.John: Well, I must say I don39。t fancy any course that asks you to have Latin, but I think my French is good enough to read original sources.Sarah: Yes, mine too. Well, what shall we choose?That is the end of Section 2. You will have half a minute to check your answers (pause for 30 seconds).Now turn to Section 3.____________Section 3——————You will hear an interview between Dr Mullet, a university lecturer and a student, Fayed. First you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25 (pause for 30 seconds).Now listen carefully to the interview and answer questions 21 to 25.Dr Mullet: So, Fayed, you found my office quite easily.Fayed: Yes, thank you.Dr Mullet: Thank you for ing such a long way for the interview. I believe you are from the Middle East. Now, Fayed, I really wanted to speak to you during this interview about two things your exam results and your finalyear dissertation. Your thesis, your dissertation, that was something quite special. Your personal tutor actually sent me a copy, and I must say that for a third year undergraduate it39。s a very polished piece of work.Fayed: Thank you.Dr Mullet: Yes, it39。s very promising (Q21). Now, the thing is, you tutor tells me that you weren39。t all that happy with your exams ...Fayed: Well ... The results aren39。t out yet, as you know. The first four were fine, but in the last three I lost my nerve a bit and didn39。t do so well. I know I didn39。t do as well as I could. I was worried (Q22) when I39。d handed in my exams.Dr Mullet: Right. Well, exams are a bit of a game anyway. We can39。t all do well on the day. But here exam results are not everything, as you know I set great store by other factors in deciding whether we offer you a place on the Master39。s course (Q23). Perhaps you could tell me a little about how you became interested in economics.Fayed: Yes, of course. Well, I39。ve always been interested in social and economic history, so from a very young age I read about the booms and crashes of the 19th and 20th centuries. I originally applied to study history at university (Q24), but when I got there I realised I had the chance to study economics at a high level, so I changed. My mother used to be an economist at the World Bank, so I had her to help me and guide me. Although she didn39。t help me write my finalyear paper!Dr M
