[00:16.20]2.1
[00:19.17]Sample Conversation
[00:22.54]1)Sometimes we have to ask for permission
[00:28.42]to make sure we're allowed to do something.
[00:33.10]Listen to the following dialogs,
[00:37.30]paying special attention to the colored parts
[00:42.50]and their intonation.
[00:46.00]A
[00:48.40]A:Sarah,that was a wonderful dinner.
[00:52.72]B:I'm glad you enjoyed it.
[00:56.01]A:Uh,would you mind if I smoke?
[01:00.00]B:Not at all.Here,let me get you an ashtray
[01:05.41]A:Thanks a lot.Oh,I just remembered.
[01:10.71]I wonder if I could possibly use your phone.
[01:15.10]B:Oo,I'm sorry,but it's out of order.
[01:20.20]B
[01:26.49]A:Before you sign the lease.Do you have any questions?
[01:31.48]B:Yes.Are we allowed to sublet the flat?
[01:36.68]A:No,I'm afraid subletting isn't permitted.
[01:41.77]B:I see.Well,is it all right if we install our own air conditioner?
[01:49.45]A:I suppose so.
[01:52.56]B:Okay ... and can our guests use the parking lot?
[01:57.76]A:of course.
[02:00.45]C
[02:07.06]A:Hi,this is Susie.
[02:10.56]B:Hi,Susie.What's up?
[02:14.16]A:Is it OK if I bring my cat?
[02:18.16]B:Don't be ridiculous,Susie.
[02:21.84]Of course it isn't OK! Cats aren't allowed in the cinema
[02:28.32]A:I know that!But can I leave her at your place?
[02:33.44]B:I'd rather you didn't
[02:36.53]I'd have to get one of the neighbors to look after her.
[02:41.12]A:No,you wouldn't.She doesn't need looking after.
[02:46.11]B:I'm sorry.Susie,but it's impossible.
[02:50.89]A:Oh,please!
[02:54.08]B:No,Susie.You'll just have to leave the cat at home
[02:59.77]And that's final.
[03:02.99]Part III
[03:12.18]Summary and Discussion
[03:15.89]3.3 Discussion
[03:20.39]1)You're going to hear a conversation related to Text A
[03:28.09]The conversation is printed below, but not in the correct order
[03:34.49]As you listen the first time
[03:38.28]number the speeches in the order in which you hear them
[03:43.69]The first two have been numbered for you as examples.
[03:48.88]Then read through the dialog with a partner
[03:54.29]to make sure you both have the same order.
[03:58.89]Fiona:What's wrong,Chris?You look depressed.
[04:03.17]Chris:I am depressed I was just at the financial aid office.
[04:09.55]My application for a scholarship's been turned down.
[04:14.43]Fiona:Oh no!So does this mean
[04:19.13]you're going to be joining the working world
[04:23.24]like the rest of us?
[04:26.32]Chris:No,I don't like the idea of working
[04:30.92]and studying at the same time.
[04:34.60]I think I'll apply for a student loan.
[04:38.80]They're easy to get,and I know I'm eligible for one.
[04:44.71]Fiona:Oh,I wouldn't do that!Sure!
[04:49.91]A loan lets you concentrate on your studies,
[04:54.22]but it isn't much fun when it's time to pay it back.
[04:59.21]Chris:But you don't have to start repaying it
[05:03.91]until after you graduate
[05:07.62]That could take me years!
[05:10.91]And besides,after I pay it back,I'll have a credit history
[05:18.51]so it'll be easier to get a credit card or a bank loan.
[05:24.41]Fiona:Well,that's true.But most of the people I know
[05:29.90]who got student loans have trouble making ends meet
[05:35.20]the loans just aren't big enough.
[05:39.02]Once you've paid your tuition,there's hardly any money left to live on
[05:46.02]Cheis:Oh,I think I could manage.I don't need a lot of luxuries.
[05:52.00]Fiona:Well,I still think you should look into the work/study program
[05:57.98]instead of applying for a loan.
[06:01.69]Just think:If you get a job,you end up with an employment history,
[06:08.48]and that makes it easier to get other jobs in the future.
[06:13.68]Chris:Yeah,I know,but I came to college to study,
[06:19.69]not to work.
[06:22.77]I've seen how tired you get,trying to work and study at the same time
[06:29.15]I don't think I could manage it.
[06:33.33]Fiona:It's true it takes some discipline,but you get used to it
[06:39.12]Besides,having a job can be interesting.
