Good morning, everyone. I’d like to welcome you to City University. I’m Betty Russell and I work in the International Students’ Office. I have some important for you. First, you must enroll by August 28th. Pick up your ID card at our office. Then, you’ll need to pick up a library card so that you can borrow books from the library. Show them your ID card in the library and they will do it for you. You may be thinking about the sports facilities at our school. There’s no charge for student use, but of course you’ll have to show your ID card. Concerning the medical assistance, the University has its own health center, and all services are free for enrolled students. 1.B 2.D 3.B 4.C 5.A Task 2: Living on Campus (M=man; W=woman)
M: Hi, Lisa. How’s life on campus?
W: Hi, John. Oh, not so bad. Pretty good in fact.
M: Is that what do you think? I mean, do you like living on campus?
W: Yeah, I enjoy living here because there’s so many people around and it’s easy to make friends. What about you? Have you ever lived in a dorm before? M: No, this is the first time.
W: I think you’ll find it quite convenient. The library, labs, sports center and other facilities are right on campus.
M: That’s true. The atmosphere here is different from the outside. But I guess living in town has its advantage too, like being close to the shopping center. You know, our university is so far from downtown.
W: But the commuting to classes…I mean, you would have to get up so early to get to classes on time. And then going home would be so much time.
M: Yeah, but the food here…it seems it’s the same thing in the cafeteria every day. W: Well, I think the food here is OK, and if you want a change, you can eat out once in a while. M: True. 1. Lisa 2. John 3. John 4. Lisa 5. John 6. Lisa
Task 3: Which comes first, day or night?
There was a student who wanted very much to gain admission to a study course. He was smart enough to get through the written test and appear for the personal interview. Since the boy answered all the questions correctly, the interviewer decided to corner him. “Tell me your choice,” said the interviewer to the boy. “I shall either ask you ten easy questions or one really difficult. Which option would you prefer? Think before you make up your mind.” The boy thought for a while and said, “My choice is one really difficult question.” “Well, you have made your own choice!” said the interviewer. said the interviewer. “Tell me: which comes first, day or night?” the boy was jolted first but he thought for a while and said, “it’ s the day, sir.” “Why?” asked the interviewer. He was smiling. “Sorry, sir, but you promised me that you would only ask me one difficult question!” admission to the course was thus secured. 1. In order to gain admission to a study course 2.

Task 1: University Life
University life is a new and different experience for me. First of all, living at the university gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my own. My parents aren’t around to say, “No, you’re not going out tonight.” I decide everything for myself. Being around lots of friendly people is another aspect I like about university life. On my first say, when I arrived on campus, I was a bit confused about where I was going. An upperclassman noticed out I was looking for my dorm, he said, “Oh, just follow me; that’s where I’m going.” Now, I can really say that I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are so many friendly people around to
talk with. Finally, I LOVE HAVING Fridays off; I would not be able to deal with five days of classes in a row. How did I do it in high school? I love sleeping in on Fridays. I guess I’m sort of a party animal, but it seems like I go out every Thursday night. It also seems like I don’t get home until early the next day1 My head hits the pillow and I don’t move until Friday afternoon.

Listening Effectively
Through it is 50% of everyday communication, listening, it seems, is the least taught. Listening is more than just hearing: it requires understanding. In an educational setting, listening effectively is critical. Effective listening results in doing the right assignment, doing the assignment correctly, and taking notes effectively. Doing these activities well results in learning and, most of the time, good grades. In a professional setting, listening is also critical. When you receive an oral message, your response must be correct. If you fail to listen to customers or clients, you may lose their business, and your job! Ina personal setting, listening effectively deepens your relationships. When we listen to someone, we say “You are important” without ever speaking a word. When we fail to listen, not only do we not receive the message, but we send the message that we are just plain dumb.
