TOEFL listening conversation 1

Narrator

Listen to a conversation between a student and a university advisor The student is trying to decide where to go to school next year

Advisor: Now, then, Mr., uh, Vickstad How can I help you?

Student: Well, I'm thinking about transferring, but I'm, I'm not sure I was hoping you could

help me make a decision

A: I'll try Where are you thinking of transferring to? And why do you want to leave Kryptos

U?

S: Um I'm thinking of going to Central University, because it's in my hometown I've uh,

been kind of homesick here this year, and I haven't made many friends I just feel so lonely

So, I thought that uh, maybe, it'd be better to be closer to my parents and friends and all

A: I see And would you keep the same major if you transferred? What is it business

administration?

S: Yeah, I would The credits I've earned here will transfer to Central I've already checked A: May I ask why you chose to come to Kryptos University in the first place?

S: Sure Um, well, the main reason is you have a great business school And the second

reason is that I I wanted to get away from home

A: You're right, Mr Vickstad, we do have an excellent business school But, so does Central

The thing is, you've got almost a year under your belt here now At Central, you'll be starting from scratch

S: Yeah, I know that But I'm a little bit familiar with Central, 'cuz I had older friends who went

there, and I visited it before I came here

A: You know, freshman year is usually the hardest I remember how homesick I was my first

year I'll tell you, I was ready to pack it in after the first two weeks But the longer I stayed, the more comfortable I felt By senior year, I was glad I chose to stay

S: Really? Did it get a lot better your sophomore year?

A: Yes, it did You might well find the same is true for you Also, even though your credits

here will transfer, you will have to take extra courses, because Central has different

requirements You'll probably have to go to school for an extra year

S: Hmm I hadn't thought about that I'll have to check into it Maybe I should give it one

Trang 2

more year I mean, it's probably good for me to learn to live away from my family and friends, right? It'll make me stronger in the future

A: You can always move back there after you graduate Of course, by that time you may not

want to!

S: Thank you for all your help I guess I'll find out the exact transfer requirements You've

given me a lot to think about

A: Don't mention it If you feel like you want to talk more, don't hesitate to come back and see

me

Narrator

Listen to a conversation between two students in their first class of the term

Arthur: Morning, Myra

Myra: Oh hi, Arthur! You're taking Ecology Three Eleven, too?

A: Looks like it It's my only elective this term

M: Really? What happened?

A: Oh, I just took too many my second year, and now I've got to pick up all the required

courses I've been ignoring University's just too much fun, I guess

M: Too many parties?

A: No (laughs) Well, yeh, that too But you know there're just so many interesting things to

learn about, and we've only got four years here to explore them I've been having too good a time at it, that's all But it has helped me decide my major, finally

M: And?

A: Bus Ad I've learned a lot here, and one thing I've learnt is that most fields don't hold out a

lot of promise for gainful employment! So I'm playing it safe and going for my BA in business administration

M: So, why Three Eleven? An ecology course isn't going to help you in your office job at

some corporation

A: Prob'ly not, but it still seems interesting and important We all need to know about the

environment, no matter what we do for a living

M: Yeah, you're right And maybe you will be able to use it Maybe you'll end up working for a

green company or something

A: Could be There's more and more of those every day

M: And thank goodness Poor old Earth!

A: Is that why you're taking this?

M: Well, it's not an elective for me I need Three Eleven for my BS program We need several

cross-field courses to "broaden our understanding", and this is one of them Actually, though, I'm looking forward to this course: "Nature's Influence on Man Man's Influence on Nature"! Sounds like a really useful topic, doesn't it? And Dr Forsythe is supposed to be a very

Trang 5

engaging lecturer

A: Well, his website is a gas, at least! He's got an hilarious little eco-game on it: shoot the

wolves and see how many deer reproduce and eat all the grass!

M: Hmm I suppose that would teach, uh, fifth graders about the balance of nature

A: Hey, it was fun! Anyway, he's also got some good information there it'll probably come in

handy when he gives us homework

M: Wow, you're right! I better take a look at it myself Can you give me his URL?

A: It's listed right in the course guide where they describe the course, but if you can't find it,

I'll give it to you next time Or I could email it to you what's your address?

M: That would be great, thanks Myrasweetie@umail.com Here, I'll write it down for you Did

you pick up your textbook yet?

A: No I've been looking for a secondhand copy before I spring for a new one It's

expensive fortyexpensive five bucks!

M: (sighs) They all are, aren't they? Why do poor college students have to pay so much for

their textbooks? It ain't fair

A: It's just economics Nobody reads them except the students that take the courses The

publishers probably didn't print more than a few hundred copies of our text, you know

M: Still, they could print them in paperback, couldn't they? That would save us some money

A: And on newsprint sure! (laughs) Some students do keep them, though, for reference

after they graduate, if they're working in that field In that case, they need to be durable My dad's still got his college accounting textbooks and he uses them all the time

M: I suppose you're right Where you gonna find a used copy? At the bookstore?

A: They don't have any there now I checked I put up some notes on the Science Building

bulletin boards yesterday Maybe someone there's got one they don't want to keep anymore

M: Well, uh, if you hear about two of them, will you let me know? I'd like to save a little

money, too

A: Sure If I do, I'll buy it for you and you can pay me back How much are you willing to pay?

M: Oh, anything under thirty-five dollars'll be fine A penny saved is a penny earned But if

you haven't found one by next Monday, I'll have to buy a new one then, so email me Sunday night either way, will you?

A: You bet Oops! Here's Dr Forsythe now

Narrator

Listen to a conversation between a professor and his assistant

Dr Abercrombie: Good morning, Hanna Thanks for coming in How was your holiday?

Mr Fitch: It was very good, Professor, thanks A week in the Appalachians is really

therapeutic Nothing to do but eat, sleep, and listen to nature It's beautiful up there in the spring the countryside is so green and the people are so friendly and laid back A good place to unwind

Dr: I envy you I've just got too much to get done to get away at all now I must get this book

finished, for one thing my publisher's getting impatient I've outlined the last two chapters, though, finally, so it won't take me too much longer, I hope Maybe I'll be able to go

somewhere at Christmas But, um, what I wanted to talk to you about is our syllabus for this term, Hanna I know this is short notice, but I'd like to make a couple of little changes to it

Mr: Uh oh! I know your idea of "little" changes!

Dr: (laughs) No, no, I don't think it'll be that bad this time What I'd like to do is, uh, cut

Lectures Two and Three the ones on Old English and Middle English down to half their length and then meld them together into a single lecture Then, with that extra ninety

minutes, I want to add a lecture at the end on World Englishes I think it's time we dealt with that more thoroughly, don't you?

Mr: Yessir, I certainly do That's a good idea So I guess I just need to cut down the quizzes

to match and add a new one for World Englishes Do you know when I'll be able to see your revised OE and ME notes?

Dr: I've already done a good bit of that revision, Hanna, and I think I'll have them ready for

you before Lecture One That's April eighth, I think?

Mr Yes, Tuesday the eighth

Dr: I've taken the segments on pronunciation out I think we can lose those easily enough

Nobody really needs to recite "Beowulf" or the "Canterbury Tales" any more no matter how much fun it is

Mr: And that means you probably won't be discussing orthography much either?

Dr: I suppose not I just want to be sure to point out clearly the main ways in which Modern

English has developed from its predecessors You know, the Great Vowel Shift, and so forth Saving ninety minutes is not going to commit Old and Middle English to total oblivion, after all

Mr: (laughs) Not if you can help it, certainly! So I can eliminate the phonetics quiz completely,

Trang 9

then?

Dr: Yes, I think so I'll still give them a reading just so they can get a flavour of their ancestral

tongue, but they can get as much of the phonetics as they want out of the textbook and it's rote learning anyway, really

Mr: Now, what about your new lecture, then? Can I get started on any of that?

Dr: Yes, that's where I could really use your help in the next couple of weeks I need you to

research 'pidgins and creoles' for me I've never paid enough attention to them, and I'd like

an idea of the number there are, uh, their distribution, and uh, what linguists are saying about them these days are they English dialects? Derivative languages? What? See if you can find me some interesting examples and some specific quotes, will you?

Mr: Yes, of course I think I know the kind of thing you're looking for I'll take a look for

internet sources this afternoon and then see what the library has later

Dr: Thank you, Hanna, I'd appreciate that And while you're there, would you see if they've

got a copy of Burnley's source book on the history of English? I can't seem to find mine

Mr: Oh Uh that's because you lent it to me last term and erm, I haven't returned it yet

Dr: Ah Well Get it back to me sometime soon, then, will you? I need to refer to it for my

revisions

Mr: Yessir, of course Anything else on the syllabus?

Dr: Just that we'll need the student handout revised to reflect the changes Who was in

charge of that last time?

Mr: The department secretary has the file I'll draft a revision, let you check it, and then give it

to her, shall I? Shouldn't take long, and we just need to get photocopies before the first class

Dr: All right, I'll leave that in your hands too then, Hanna Just let me know if you need

anything And I'll see you at the faculty meeting tomorrow afternoon

Mr: Oh, yes Yes The faculty meeting Oh, and if you need any anecdotes on Appalachian

English dialect, I'm your man I've just picked up a wealth of contemporary examples!

Dr: (laughs) I'll keep that in mind Thanks, Hanna

Narrator

Listen to an assistant lecturer talking to a new student

Mr Fitch: Yes? Come in

Mary Jane: Excuse me, are you Mr Fitch? Dr Addlestone's assistant?

MF: Hi Yes Can I help you?

MJ: Yes, please, if you have time I'm Mary Jane Turner and I'm signed up for Literature

Two-twenty? I just wanted to get clear on the grading system I'm still not sure how it works

MF: Hi, Mary Jane Sure It's pretty straightforward, really After each lecture, we prepare a

short quiz on that material, and you take it at the beginning of the next lecture period It only takes about ten minutes and it's pretty simple if you've taken good notes and studied them

a bit beforehand, that is There are fifteen lectures, so that's fifteen quizzes

MJ: And they're part of our final grade, right?

MF: Right One percent each or fifteen percent for all fifteen of them

MJ: Each one's only one percent of my grade? That doesn't seem like much Missing one or

two of them wouldn't make much difference, would it?

MF: Not really, no but the whole is greater than the sum of its parts They're not worth much

individually because they're very short and sweet just to check that you've been coming to class, really But students who pass all fifteen quizzes earn a five percent, um, bonus for effort

MJ: Don't our individual quiz scores count?

MF: No, sorry They're just pass-fail quizzes

MJ: So, pass them all and it's twenty percent of my final grade?

MF: That's right

MJ: That sounds good

MF: And sixty percent are your mid-term and final exams

MJ: Are they short and sweet, too?

MF: (laughs) No, I'm afraid not They're not like the quizzes They're ninety-minute tests and

require a good bit of writing in addition to the objective questions The mid-term covers the

Trang 13

first eight lectures, the Founding Fathers to Mark Twain The final mainly covers World War One to the present, from Lecture Nine on

MJ: So first-half authors won't be on the final?

MF: That's not what I said I said it's MAINLY on the second half of the course Professor

Addlestone will be keeping you, uh, honest with a few questions about American literature before the first World War, too

MJ: I see And they're thirty-thirty?

MF: Yes, thirty percent for the mid-term, thirty percent for the final, and up to twenty percent

for the weekly quizzes And then up to ten percent each for your essays You'll need at least ninety percent for an A, eighty percent for a B, and seventy percent for a C

MJ: Erm could you tell me something about what is expected with our essays? There're

two of them, right?

MF: Yes You're required to write two short critical essays on American authors of your

choice, from anywhere in American literary history, and we'll be looking carefully at your writing style and ability as much as at the content of your essays The Professor's a real stickler for overall literacy

MJ: So I can choose any author in the syllabus?

MF: Yes, but I can tell you that we often like it when a student picks an author out of the

mainstream perhaps a lesser writer that we haven't been able to include in the lectures, or

a contemporary author who hasn't, uh, hasn't found a place in literary history yet

MJ: Someone really obscure?

MF: Not a good idea The author you choose should have some relevance to the course of

American literature And if you can demonstrate that relevance clearly in four to five

typewritten pages, then you'll have a good essay

MJ: For each essay? Ooh

MF: This is a university, uh, Mary Jane, not a high school Now, you've got almost four

months to write eight to ten pages You should be able to manage that

MJ: Yes, OK You're right When are they due?

MF: Your first essay's due in late October It must be handed in by Lecture Eight, but we'd be

happy to see it anytime before that And the second is due at the last lecture in December It must be turned in before the winter break

MJ: Oh should the first essay be about somebody in the the first half's material then? And

the same for the second?

Trang 14

MF: No, not at all Any author you like It would be smart to choose ones that interest you,

though Papers that reflect some, um, enthusiasm always turn out better

MJ: Oh, I've got that! I'm really looking forward to this course I love reading!

MF: That's good, because you'll be doing a lot of that

MJ: Thanks for your help, Mr Fitch I really appreciate it

MF: And don't be shy if you have any more concerns, Mary Jane My door's always open

Good-bye

R: Good to meet you, too

T: Well, uh, I guess the first thing is which bunk do you want?

R: Ha! Oh, I don't mind, really The top's fine You can have the lower one

T: OK, thanks, I'll take it! I am a bit afraid of falling off I did that more than once when I was a

kid It doesn't hurt, really, but it sure knocks the wind out of you!

R: (laughs) Well, I'll try not to roll over in my sleep Actually, it looks like fun sleeping up

there I've never slept in a bunk bed before, though What's your major?

T: Oh, I'm supposed to be in pre-med, but I've been taking a lot of electives I might change

it What's yours?

R: I'm just an aggie We've got a ranch out west of Houston, and I'm thinking I might become

a vet You're pre-med? Then you've taken Chemistry One Twenty-one? It's a required course for me, and I'm not good in chemistry at all Maybe I could borrow your notes?

T: Hah! "Bonehead Chemistry" no, sorry I still have to take that, too Hey, maybe we could

sign up for the same sections

R: Yeah, that's a good idea!

T: When do you register?

R: Oh Let me see Wait a sec Uh ah, here it is: ten a.m Monday

T: Great! I register at nine The Bonehead lectures are Tuesdays and Thursdays, and the

labs are Monday-Wednesday-Friday afternoons I can register first and then let you know which sections I've got before you register at ten What times are good for you?

R: Oh gosh Maybe, early lectures and a Friday lab? I think better in the morning, and that's

going to be a tough course

Trang 17

T: I know That's why I'm thinking about switching majors the science prerequisites are

really awful But I'll give it one more semester before I pack it in You sure you want a Friday lab? It'll cut your weekend short

R: Yeah, but I'm gonna have a full load this semester, so I gotta take something Friday

anyway Might as well be something I can cut

T: OK then So, should I meet you back here Monday about nine-thirty? I can give you my

schedule then

R: Uh, how about in the cafeteria? I'd like to get some coffee before I start I'll need the

energy And it's handier anyway

T: Sure, that's fine let's do that, then But maybe we'd better get a little organized around

here I've already put my clothes in the left-hand dresser Do you mind if I set one of my stereo speakers on the corner of the right-hand one?

R: No, that's OK I didn't bring much stuff just the basics till I know what I need If I need

that space later, we can hang the speaker on the wall

T: And I took over half the closet

R: That bookcase looks pretty small Most of my stuff is books

T: Yeah, I've got a lot of those, too and we haven't even got this term's texts yet (Sighs in

thought) D'you think we could get one the same size from Campus Stores and put it on top of that one? They've got a free furniture place there

R: Well, we could at least run over and take a look I'll bet the bookcases are all gone,

though they're going to be a popular item Tell you what: I'll go over there after I see you Monday morning Maybe they'll have an early-bird special

T: OK, good And if they don't, we'll just have to make do for now (Pause) Shoes

R: Huh?

T: Where can we put our shoes? Where'd you stash yours?

Listen to a conversation between two students at their university cafeteria

Tom: Oh, there you are

Ralph: Hi Did you get the classes you wanted?

T: Not really My Physics lectures are eight to nine in the morning Tuesday and Thursday

Those're gonna be killers I'm gonna need two alarm clocks And I got a Friday lab from two

to four I couldn't get an earlier one because they conflict with my Biology course It's only has one section, so I have no choice there

R: Those Friday classes sure spoil a four-day week, don't they? (Laughs) Want some

coffee?

T: Uh, sure You still got time before you register?

R: There's still a few minutes till ten, and they don't let you start early They're pretty strict

they won't let you in there till your time comes

T: That's because it's so crowded, I guess Registering eighteen thousand students in four

days makes it pretty busy over there

R: I'll be right back (He gets them coffees.) There you are (Pause) Coffee I'm gonna be

drinking a lot of that this semester

T: Me too, I guess

R: Did you pick up a cafeteria cash card yet?

T: No, not yet I've gotta go to the bank first The biggest card they've got is a hundred

dollars, isn't it?

R: I think they've got a two-hundred dollar one this year Prices have gone up so much

they've added a new denomination like Zimbabwe does! But I've still got some money on

my last year's card, so I haven't checked for sure yet

T: Well, I'll take out two hundred bucks just in case Might as well get the biggest one I'll be

using it all, that's for sure I practically live over here It's a good place to study

R: Can I sublet your half of the room then? (Laughs)

T: (Laughs) Gee, maybe we should Pick up some extra money They say there's a real

shortage of dorm space this year

Trang 24

R: How come? The student body's about the same as last year, I think Or smaller tuition's

gone up again and I'll bet some students just couldn't afford it this year, with this slow

economy

T: No, it's because they tore down Dormitory A to put up a new one but all they've got is the

shell so far That plumbers and electricians strike this summer sure threw a monkey wrench into the construction schedule It won't be finished now till the end of December at least

R: Wow! There must've been five hundred rooms in Dorm A! That's a big dent in campus

housing, all right Are they doing anything about it?

T: Well, I hear the Housing Office is trying to lease as many off-campus units as they can

find, but most of them are rented to students already

R: Too bad I wouldn't want to live off-campus anyway, though

T: Why not?

R: Well, it's so cheap and easy to live right here The rent's less than half of what we'd have

to pay out there, and we're right on campus within a few minutes of everyplace The only problem is the roommates they give you

T: (Laughs) Yeah? Well, you're stuck with this one for the rest of the year at least, pal! But

y'know, of we stayed roomies, we could share the rent on an apartment somewhere not too far off So it wouldn't cost that much and think of the parties we could throw! You can't have

a real party in a dorm room

know what I want to major in

A: Don't worry That's common with sophomores Um, have you narrowed down your

possibilities? Do you have a list?

S: Uh, no, I don't I've I've always had a hard time making decisions, especially hard ones A: All right Well, why don't we start with subjects that you're sure you don't want to major in

S: OK Well, I hate science, and I'm not very good at math, so those are out Um, I don't think

business would be good for me I don't want to wear a suit and work in an office from 9 to 5 Uh I like to move around, you know, maybe get outside, and kind of be my own boss I don't want someone looking over my shoulder all the time

A: Mmm we're off to a good start No business, math, or science So, let's switch gears and

consider topics you might want to choose for a major Um of all the subjects you've taken last year and so far this term, which ones have you liked? What kinds of classes have you found interest you the most?

S: There's a lot them I love literature, and my psychology class was also pretty interesting

gathering material and writing stories There's something different to learn about almost every day Also, many of the classes you've already taken satisfy the first-year requirements

of the journalism department You see, they want you to take a broad spectrum of classes

um, what if I try it and it turns out that I don't really like it?

A: Well, while you're trying it, you'll be learning about, uh, all sorts of topics If you find one of

those that you like better, you could change your major You'd just need to go to the

registrar's office and fill out some paperwork

S: Um, OK! I'll check out journalism, then Thank you, Mr Grouton

some kind of pass that they could buy?

think I can get it done by then Could I please turn it in by the end of next week instead? I have a really good excuse

excuses I've heard? "My dog ate my paper." "My roommate had a party so I couldn't

concentrate." "I have seven papers due on the same day!" "I went home to see my parents and my car broke down." My favorite was a student who told me she "forgot" all about her term paper until the day before it was due It's amazing she remembered to come to class

S: [Laughs nervously] I didn't forget, sir I've been working on the paper, really! Here, I

brought my outline and a rough draft It's, um, just that well, a lot of things have been going

on in my life, and I'm having trouble managing things

about it in each class So, tell me your story What's happening in your life?

breast cancer So he's been really upset, and, uh, I went home with him for a couple of days

up on Tuesday that I really need to study for this weekend Then I got the flu last week, and missed a day of class I tried to work on your paper that day, but I really felt horrible

P: OK, I can understand that I'm glad that you're, er, helping your roommate through a tough

time That's more important than school work But all this seems to have happened recently What about the two weeks after I first assigned the term paper?

S: I, uh [sheepishly] I guess I didn't use that time very well I kind of put off getting started

on it

P: [Sighs] Yes, you did You know, if I had a dollar for every time I've heard a student say

that

S: I'm sorry, Professor Dalton I've learned my lesson If I had spent just a little bit of time

each week on the paper, I could have had it done on time I know now that I need to plan for unexpected things

P: You seem like a bright, conscientious young man, Mr your first name's Jack, isn't it?

When I was a young student, an upperclassman gave me some advice that I've never

Trang 33

forgotten He said, "You're going to find yourself with a lot of small gaps during school days

15 minutes, or half and hour What you do during those gaps will make a big difference in how successful you are."

S: Wow! That's great advice

P: Yeah, I thought so And I still do So I'll tell you what You can turn your paper in no later

than 9 a.m Friday, right here on my office desk In exchange for this favor, I want you to pass that advice on to all your friends and dorm mates
