Part 2.
2
You will hear the managing director of a company called Stevenson's welcoming a group of work experience students.
3
First you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14.
4
Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14.
5
Good morning everyone and welcome to Stevenson's, one of the country's major manufacturers of metal goods.
6
Thank you for choosing us for your two weeks of work experience.
7
My name is Julia Simmons and since the beginning of this year I've been the managing director.
8
Stephenson's is quite an old company.
9
Like me, the founder, Ronald Stephenson, went into the steel industry when he left school.
10
That was in 1923.
11
He set up this company when he finished his apprenticeship in 1926.
12
although he actually started making plans two years earlier in 1924.
13
He was a very determined young man.
14
Stevenson's long-term plan was to manufacture components for the machine tools industry,
15
although in fact that never came about and for the automotive industry
16
that is cars and lorries however there was a delay of five years before that happened
17
because shortly before the company went into production Stevenson was given the opportunity to make goods for hospitals
18
and other players in the healthcare industry so that's what we did for the first five years.
19
Over the years we've expanded the premises considerably.
20
We were lucky that the site is big enough, so moving to a new location has never been necessary.
21
However, the layout is far from ideal for modern machinery and production methods,
22
so we intend to carry out major refurbishment of this site over the next five years.
23
I'd better give you some idea of what you'll be doing during your two weeks with us
24
so you know what to expect.
25
Most mornings you'll have a presentation from one of the managers to learn about their department,
26
starting this morning with research and development.
27
And you'll all spend some time in each department, observing what's going on and talking to people,
28
as long you don't stop them from doing their work altogether.
29
In the past, a teacher from your school has come in at the end
30
of each week to find out how the group were getting on, but your school isn't able to arrange that this year.
31
Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20.
32
Thank you.
33
20. Now listen and answer questions 15 to 20.
34
OK, now I'll briefly help you to orientate yourselves around the site.
35
As you can see, we're in the reception area, which we try to make attractive and welcoming to visitors.
36
There's a corridor running left from here, and if you go along that, the door facing you at the end is the entrance to the coffee room.
37
This looks out onto the main road on one side
38
and some trees on the other and that'll be where you meet each morning.
39
The factory is the very big room on the far side of the site.
40
Next to it is the warehouse
41
which can be accessed by lorries going up the road to the turning area at the end.
42
You can get to the warehouse by crossing to the far side of the courtyard
43
and then the door is on your right.
44
Somewhere you'll be keen to find is the staff canteen.
45
This is right next to reception.
46
I can confidently say that the food's very good, but the view isn't.
47
The windows on one side look onto a corridor and courtyard, which aren't very attractive at all,
48
and on the other onto the access road, which isn't much better.
49
You'll be using the meeting room quite often
50
and you'll find it by walking along the corridor to the left of the courtyard and continuing along it to the end.
51
The meeting room is the last one on the right and I'm afraid there's no natural daylight in the room.
52
Then you'll need to know where some of the offices are.
53
The Human Resources Department is at the front of this building,
54
so you head to the left along the corridor from reception and it's the second room you come to.
55
It looks out onto the main road.
56
And finally the boardroom, where you'll be meeting sometimes.
57
That has quite a pleasant view as it looks out onto the trees.
58
Go along the corridor past the courtyard right to the end.
59
The boardroom is on the left next to the factory.
60
Okay now, are there any questions before we move...
61
That is the end of part two.
62
You now have half a minute to check your answers to part two.
63
Thank you.

需要注意的發音
說話人用了 20 次縮略和弱讀形式,例如 you'll, isn't, aren't。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: apprenticeship /əˈpɹɛn.tɪs.ʃɪp/, machinery /məˈʃiːnəɹi/
- 長單詞——注意重音位置: apprenticeship /əˈpɹɛn.tɪs.ʃɪp/, confidently /ˈkɑnfɪdəntli/, orientate /ˈɒɹi.ənteɪt/, automotive /ˌɔtəˈmoʊtɪv/, considerably /kənˈsɪdəɹəbli/

- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚,後面不要加母音: courtyard /ˈkɔɹt.jɑɹd/, warehouse /ˈwɛə(ɹ)haʊs/, apprenticeship /əˈpɹɛn.tɪs.ʃɪp/, orientate /ˈɒɹi.ənteɪt/, premise /ˈpɹɛm.ɪs/

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
