Now you'll hear the two long conversations.
Conversation One
W: English Language Center. May I help you?
M: Yes. I'm calling to find out more information about your program. For example, what kind of courses do you offer?
W: Well, first of all, the purpose of our program is to provide language learning opportunities for this area's community, whether a student's goal is to master basic functional1 language skills, let's say, for his or her job, or to study intensively to enter a US college or university.
M: Okay. [19]I'm calling for a friend who is interested in attending a US university.
W: [20]And that's the kind of, uh, instruction that we provide, from basic communication courses to content-based classes such as computer literacy2, intercultural communication, and business English.
M: Great. What are your application deadlines for the next semester?
W: Well, we ask applicants3 to apply no later than two months before the semester begins. This gives us time to process the application and issue the student's I-20.
M: An I-20?
W: Oh, an I-20 is a form that indicates that [21]we are giving permission for the student to study in our program, and then the student takes this form to the US embassy4 in his or her home country to apply for the F-1 student visa.
M: All right. What is the tuition5 for a full-time6 student?
W: [22]It's two thousand thirty dollars.
M: And how does one apply?
W: Well, we can send you an application and you can mail it back to us, or you can fill out our application that's on our Web site.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Why does the man make the phone call?
正确答案:C
解析:对话开头男士就说了打电话的理由,并进一步说:“我的一个朋友想去美国上大学”。故选C。
20. What is one course taught at the English Language Center?
正确答案:D
解析:女士在介绍课程时,提到了computer literacy, intercultural communication和business English,故D正确。选项A是对话中computer literacy的近音干扰。
21. What do we learn from the conversation about English Language Center?
正确答案:C
解析:对话中女士说,学生要拿语言中心颁发的I-20表到领事馆申请F-1学生签证,这样才能到语言中心学习,故C正确。
22. What is the tuition for a full-time student?
正确答案:A
解析:女士回答说,学费是2030美元,故选A。注意区分30和13的发音,以免误选B。
