Section B (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

“Let’s Talk”：The Free Advice Project

A few weeks ago, I took a walk around Washington Square Park. I met all the usual people：street performers, the Pigeon Guy, a group of guitarists singing in harmony. But off to the side, sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different—giving free advice. A week or two later, I set up an interview with her and we discussed her project at length. Lisa Podell, 32, started the Free Advice Project this past May. It began as an experiment；she sat in Washington Square Park for a day with a sign that read “Free Advice” as a simple way to reach out to people. Podell was astonished at the strong response. Podell admits that she was doubtful at first, but now she describes the project as mutually (相互地) beneficial. People learn from her—but she also learns from them. She says that the majority of those who come to her are dealing with some pretty heavy issues, and they expect her not only to listen, but also provide real answers.

Having worked as a full time teacher and now as an adolescent advisor, Podell believes that talking things out is an important in the decision-making process.

Sometimes, people walk around all day, keeping their problems in their own head and thinking about them in the same way. Podell simply strives to provide people with perspective.

I asked if there is a future plan for the Free Advice Project. Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York, which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city.

It was truly inspiring to meet someone with such a big heart, especially in New York—where it is sometimes very hard to find anybody to listen. (303 words)

Conversation One

M: What flights do you have from New York to London at around nine tomorrow morning？ W: One moment, please. Okay we've got a nonstop flight leaving Kennedy at 9:25. M: Well, when should I get to the airport then? W: Try to be there by 8:15.

M: Alright. One single ticket. First class please.

Conversation Two W: Hello!

M: Hi! Jacy. Where are you? Are you at home?

W: No, I’m in a taxi. I just went shopping with my mom. I’ll be there in about 10 minutes. M: Okay. I’ll wait for you. I’ll read the menu first. W: Alright. See you.

Conversation Three

W: Where is the pan? I need to start preparing dinner. M: I put it in the usual spot. What are we having tonight? W: I am not sure. Something healthy like tomatoes or carrots. M: I’d like some French fries, or fried chicken, dear.

W: We’ll do that tomorrow but for today let’s make some noodles, okay? M: Well, in that case I'll have whatever you're having.

Conversation Four

M: Hi, Carol. Are you ready to start our project about keeping pets? W: Yes, John. What kind of pets should we focus on?

M: Tom and I are thinking of a cat or a dog. Which do you prefer? W: Well, I don't know much about either of them. What about fish? M: That's a good idea. I’ll ask Tom to help. You do the survey. W: Sure. What else should we discuss, John?

M: I think we should make some cards so we don't forget what we're saying during the presentation.

W: Sounds great, but I hate speaking in public so I prefer not to do the introduction. M: I don't mind at all. I’ll do that.

W: I'm sure Mary can handle the summarizing. M: That’s settled.

Conversation Five

M: Have you decided to go on vacation?

W: Yeah. I'm going to spend two weeks in South Africa. M: Wow, that's great. Two weeks on the beach.

W: Actually, I'm not going to the beaches. They’re too crowded this time of year. So I'm going camping in the jungle instead.

M: That sounds different. Er, what do you need to bring?

W: Just some clothes. The tour company provides everything like maps, hats and tents. M: What about food?

W: I think the guide will prepare our meals. M: Sounds like it'll be a great vacation. W: Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it.

Conversation Six M: Hi, Jane!

W: How are you, Mr. Martin?

M: Fine. It’s nice to see you. So, are you enjoying the party? W: Yeah, it’s great. The music, the food, everything.

M: How time flies! I can't believe all you kids are graduating and this might be the last time I see some of you for a long time.

W: Yeah, and I'll never forget your interesting lectures and your sense of humour. M: Thanks. Er… Do you have any plans for the summer before you go to college?

W: I’ve applied for a job in a supermarket as a salesgirl. Do you happen to know anyone else with plans for the vocation?

M: Lisa is applying for a part-time job in a restaurant and Tim is going to be a volunteer in a museum.

W: Oh, excuse me. Tim seems to be leaving. I've got to talk to him. M: Goodbye. Mini talk

Good morning. Today I'd like to talk about how to become a confident speaker.

Confidence, as we all know, is a very important element in learning to speak English. How can you sound more confident when you speak English?

First, speak often. The more often you speak, the easier it becomes. Try to think of people you can talk to in English or places where English is spoken a lot. You need to put yourself in a position where you need to speak. Second, relax and think about the message. It’s easy to get nervous if you only focus on the grammar rules when you're speaking. The key to relaxing when you are speaking is to talk about something that you find interesting. Third, practice what you want to say. If you are nervous, try to practice what you want to say to yourself a few times. It can make you more confident.

Okay, that's all for today. Goodbye.

Now you have 2 min. to write your answer on your answer sheet. This is the end of listening comprehension.
