Section 1.

Listen to the conversation between a Japanese student and a housing officer and complete the form.

You will see that there is an example which has been done for you.

The conversation relating to this will be played first.

Yes?

What can I do for you?

My friend is in a homestay and she really enjoys it,

so I'd like to join a family as well.

OK.

Let me get some details.

What's your name?

My name is Keiko Yuchini.

Could you spell your family name for me, please?

Yes, it's Yuchini.

That's Y-U-I-C-H-I-N-I.

The student's family name is Uicini,

so that has been written on the form.

Now we shall begin.

You should answer the questions as you listen,

because you will not hear the recording a second time.

Now listen carefully, and answer questions 1 to 5.

Yes, what can I do for you?

My friend is in a homestay and she really enjoys it,

so I'd like to join a family as well.

OK, let me get some details.

What's your name?

My name is Keiko Yuchini.

Could you spell your family name for me, please?

Yes, it's Yuchini.

That's Y-U-I-C-H-I-N-I.

And your first name?

It's Keiko.

K-E-I-K-O.

That's Keiko Yuchini.

OK.

And you're female.

And your nationality?

I'm Japanese.

Right.

And could I see your passport, please?

Here it is.

OK.

Your passport number is JO6337.

And you are how old?

I'm 28 years old.

Now you're living in one of the colleges.

Which one?

Willow College, Rome 21C.

Right.

21C, Willow College.

And how long are you planning to stay with Homestay?

About four months.

Longer, if I like it.

And what course are you enrolled in?

Well, I've enrolled for 20 weeks in the Advanced English Studies because I need help with my writing,

and I'm nearly at the end of my first five-week course.

Right, so you've completed five weeks and you have enrolled for another 15 weeks.

That's about four months altogether.

That's right, about four months.

OK, do you have a preference for a family,

with children or without children?

I prefer...

I mean, I like young children,

but I like to be with older people.

You know, I like someone of my own age.

OK.

And do you smoke or drink?

No and no. Would you mind being with a family of smokers?

Yes, I would.

I don't like smoking.

I'd rather be with a family of people who do not smoke or drink.

OK.

And what about pets?

Oh, I love animals.

I'm a veterinarian, so that's fine.

The more the better.

All right.

Now what about you?

Are you a vegetarian or do you have any special food requirements?

No, I'm not a vegetarian,

but I don't eat a lot of meat.

I really like seafood.

And what about your hobbies?

I like reading and going to the movies.

Do you play any sports?

Yes, I joined the handball team,

but I didn't like that, so I stopped playing.

You know, I play tennis on the weekend with my friends.

Alright, let's see, name, age, er, transport.

Are you familiar with the public transport system?

No, I'm not really, because I've been living on campus.

I've been to the city a few times on the bus,

but they're always late.

What about the trains?

I like catching trains.

They're much faster.

Well, let's go and check on the computer to see what I've got.

Um, listen, would it be okay to leave this with me?

Could you come back after class this afternoon?

100

Yes, of course.

101

I'll check my records and I will give you details this afternoon.

102

Thank you for your help.

103

It's a pleasure.

104

I'll see you this afternoon.

105

Bye.

106

Bye.

107

Section 2.

108

You are going to hear a talk given by a tour guide.

109

About travel to Esnia

110

Hello everyone as you know this agency has specialized in tours

111

and independent travel to Esnia for over 20 years It's a magnificent place to visit,

112

but it's not always as easy or as comfortable as it might be

113

So this tour is designed to help you handle the bureaucratic hassles

114

and give you time and energy to enjoy the beauty of this breathtaking country The first hassle is visas Nowadays,

115

Esnian visas are needed by almost all nationalities.

116

The normal visa lasts for just 90 days,

117

but a renewal is possible.

118

It is worth leaving yourself plenty of time when applying,

119

or I suggest from experience, two months.

120

That should do it.

121

The latest confirmed price is £30,

122

but it should be noted,

123

and a lot of our regular travellers tell us that the price may change without notice and hold up visa processing.

124

So ring up the Esnian embassy and check the price before sending out forms.

125

Now, for those of you who are intending to take Esnia as part of a longer tour

126

and want to wait till you get to another country,

127

do remember that some Esnian consulates in neighboring countries require you to provide a letter from your own embassy,

128

just to confirm your nationality.

129

You can find a list of major embassies throughout the world in the Student Handbook on page 13.

130

Oh, and one more thing.

131

Check whether you need a multiple entry visa if you are leaving and re-entering Esnia on your tour.

132

Now, some miscellaneous general advice.

133

Firstly, if you are rich enough to bring in over $1,000 in cash or traveler's checks to Esnia,

134

you need to fill in the currency form.

135

Don't forget this.

136

You could get into trouble if you do.

137

You must declare all of your items and more expensive items,

138

such as video cameras, on a tourist export form,

139

which you can arrange to carry in advance.

140

Regarding health regulations, although Esna is becoming a generally healthier country with every passing year,

141

neighboring countries remain cautious with regards to health standards there,

142

and therefore it is worthwhile carrying a health certificate.

143

The one you need is the BM-276.

144

Now all of you here are students and there will be plenty of concessions for young people traveling in Esnir.

145

The Esnir and Transport Authority,

146

for example, issues a special youth fare card which you can get in any railway station.

147

Just show your international student card.

148

Information about getting this is in the handbook and give two passport photos.

149

And by the way, because there is so much bureaucracy in Esnia,

150

we advise you to take at these 12 passport photos with you.

151

They're not always easy to get done there.

152

Finally, a bit more about currency.

153

Pounds won't get you very far in Esnia these days,

154

so they're no good.

155

We advise people to carry either yen or Australian dollars.

156

US dollars are starting to cause difficulties because of political disputes.

157

Another surprise is that credit cards are virtually useless because of fraud scandals.

158

Do carry travellers checks, but we advise medium denominations.

159

Large denominations increase the likelihood of theft and small ones increase commission charges.

160

Now, as I mentioned earlier,

161

this student handbook has a wealth of information.

162

Section 3.

163

In this section, you will hear a discussion about shopping habits.

164

Ah, excuse me.

165

I wonder if you'd mind answering a few questions.

166

You see, I'm doing a project.

167

Fine, what's this on?

168

Well, I'm looking at the people's shopping habits.

169

Okay.

170

Can I ask you, first of all, are you a student?

171

Well, I was a student here last year,

172

but since then I've left,

173

and I'm working in a bank now as a cashier.

174

I just came to see a friend.

175

Oh, that's OK.

176

So how often do you go shopping?

177

Oh, I buy a lot of books.

178

Should I exclude books?

179

Oh, if you leave books aside,

180

what about shopping for all of your personal items,

181

study things and that sort of thing?

182

OK, because I go to the supermarket almost every day,

183

it seems the other things I'd say.

184

I tend to do it every other week.

185

And do you spend the same amount each time?

186

I guess so.

187

I only have about £100 a month spare,

188

so I'd probably spend about £50 each time.

189

What sort of shops do you like best?

190

The department store or the small retail outlets?

191

Oh, I like big department stores,

192

so everything's in one place.

193

The weather's so bad, so it's a bit miserable trudging from one little shop to another.

194

Great.

195

What do you find most difficult to buy?

196

What do you mean?

197

Well, what do you have to really search for?

198

What takes you a long time to find?

199

Oh, jeans, definitely.

200

You can get hold of a sweater or a CD in a moment.

201

But with jeans, I can spend all afternoon and still not find a pair that fits.

202

OK, one last question.

203

Who do you usually shop with?

204

Now?

205

I usually go shopping on my own,

206

but if I want to make it more of a social occasion,

207

with friends, to have a coffee and things.

208

I often go with colleagues from work,

209

you know, in our lunch hour.

210

Well, thank you very much.

211

You've been very helpful.

212

No problem.

213

Hello, Dale.

214

How did you get on with your shopping inquiries?

215

Well, I got 50 people to answer questions,

216

and the results were quite interesting.

217

OK, let's have a look.

218

Well, those were handouts, and here you can see

219

that the majority of people I interviewed said they went shopping once a week.

220

Most often, that was the weekend.

221

Right.

222

For those people who spend enormous amounts of money,

223

if you see this chart,

224

you can see that half the people spend £45 a month,

225

and while 15% of people spend more than that,

226

an average of £75, the rest spend relatively small amounts.

227

Even the regular shoppers spend no more than £20 a month.

228

Window shoppers?

229

Yes, I asked them what kinds of shops they prefer,

230

and the response was unanimous.

231

Everyone went for department stores.

232

I think that's what young people today want.

233

That's understandable.

234

And that's a useful statistic, I think.

235

I also talked to them about the things they found most difficult to buy.

236

I thought the answer was going to be something like books or study materials,

237

but it's always clothes.

238

They have problems with things related to hobbies.

239

As far as sportswear is concerned,

240

they complain about the lack of shops that sell it.

241

Not many had trouble buying sweaters and things like that,

242

but shoes and trousers were really problematic.

243

Was that, again, because there just isn't enough variety?

244

Yes, they say everywhere they just come across the same styles,

245

so they just give up after a while.

246

I know what they mean.

247

Lastly, I asked them whom they want to shop with.

248

Section 4.

249

In this section, you will hear a lecture about study.

250

Can anybody hear me?

251

Is this microphone working?

252

Good.

253

Now, welcome everybody to the second of these lectures on successful study at college.

254

Yesterday we looked at housekeeping issues,

255

where to find information, how to use the library computer system and so on.

256

Today we're going to cover an issue that will be vitally important to you all throughout your time here at college,

257

and that is time management.

258

Hundreds of books have been written about time management

259

and those of you who are interested in doing some extra

260

reading on the subject are very welcome to see me after the lecture as I have a book list here

261

and some other useful materials.

262

Now time management.

263

In the past this used to mean making a list to plan for every hour of the week

264

and then try to stick to this plan.

265

These days, however, the whole idea of managing time has changed.

266

In fact, if you think about it,

267

you'll find that it's impossible to manage time.

268

It just goes.

269

So, what you really need to manage is yourself.

270

To manage yourself effectively, you need to have a clear idea both of what you want to achieve

271

and how to achieve it.

272

In other words, you need to set goals

273

and you need to move towards achieving these goals in an efficient and systematic way.

274

Most coursework at the college is set by mid-semester

275

and at the end of the semester usually involves two written assignments of between 1,500 and 3,000 words in length.

276

If you look around you at college you will see

277

that during the first weeks of the term everyone looks cheerful and focused,

278

followed by a change around week 6,

279

assignment time, when people start to look a bit stressed.

280

The library reports that an increasing number of students become angry when books are not available.

281

So what's happened?

282

Has everybody become suddenly irritable and angry for no reason?

283

Not quite.

284

The reason is that people have not managed their resources well.

285

They have not set priorities for reaching their goals and,

286

as a result, some of them realize they are going to do badly with their assignments.

287

This will not be because they lack intelligence or love of the subject.

288

They will fail because they did not have a clear idea of what they have to do

289

and how long it should take them.

290

Let's step back a minute.

291

What do we mean by establishing goals?

292

Well, basically, it means deciding what you want to achieve.

293

In other words, deciding on the results that you want to achieve.

294

The students that I've mentioned found themselves very stressed,

295

mainly because they have an assignment to do.

296

But they did not fully think through the effect that this would have on their day-to-day life.

297

There's an awful lot of spare time in a day.

298

For example, if you manage to spend some of that time,

299

even just one hour, on an activity that helps you with your study,

300

that one hour could have a major impact in your course,

301

particularly if you make it a regular habit.

302

I'd like to ask you now to have a look at the planners in your information kits.

303

You will see that there are three.

304

One term planner, one weekly planner and one daily planner.

305

The term planner is to help you get an overview of everything that you will need to do for the term.

306

The weekly planner is to help you week by week

307

and the daily planner will help you with the really detailed planning Before we go any further,

308

I would like you to make a note in your daily

309

planner right now I want you to picture how you could

310

make a major difference in your life by spending just one hour a day on some activities for the next term

311

Background reading, for example, or preparing a bibliography

312

Now imagine the benefit at the end of the term The term diary and the weekly diary are the most important ones.

313

However, a week is really the shortest time you have to establish an overview of your time for planning purposes.

314

Now you need to set priorities for the term.

315

Work out how you could achieve those priorities and the results that you desire.

316

If you can get into the habit of planning like this,

317

you'll soon find that you've actually had more time than before to spend on relaxation and other activities that you enjoy.

318

Now let's share some of the ideas that you've come up with.

319

I'll divide you up into groups to share your ideas.

320

OK.
