【答案解析】[听力原文]1-5
[Student] Hello, can I come in?
[Teacher] Oh yes, come in. How can I help you?
[Student] I was looking for the Economics office. I've been all over the Arts Faculty building looking for it but I could only find the School of Accounting and Economic History. Is this the right place?
[Teacher] Yes. This is the School of Economics.
[Student] Oh good. Um, I'm a new student here.
[Teacher] Oh, really? Welcome. Where are you from?
[Student] I am from Japan. I am Japanese.
[Teacher] Japan, a very beautiful place. So is there anything I can do for you?
[Student] Yes, I was wondering if someone could give me some information.
[Teacher] Well. I might be able to help. I lecture on that program. What do you need to know?
[Student] Quite a few things, actually. Firstly, how many lectures a week do I have to attend?
[Teacher] Ah, well, the Economics course is a double unit so there are two lectures a week and one tutorial. The lectures are scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday.
[Student] What time?
[Teacher] Let me see...You know this information is all in the handout which you should have received yesterday at the orientation meeting.
[Student] Oh, was there a meeting yesterday? I didn't know about that...no one mentioned...
[Teacher] Yes, there was, but never mind. Now lectures are at four in the afternoon.
[Student] Four's a bit late. I've got a part time job that starts at four thirty.
[Teacher] Well you can't be in two places at once, can you, and attendance at lectures is necessary. We expect at least 90% attendance at this university, you know.
[Student] And what times have been set down for the tutorials--do you have that information?
[Teacher] That's a very well attended course so there's a number of tutorial times. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, all at 9 o'clock. Yours will be allocated at the first lecture.
[Student] Can't I choose the time?
[Teacher] Maybe, maybe not. You'll have to talk to the lecturer on the course. Dr. Roberts is his name.
[Student] Can you tell me where I can find him?
[Teacher] Yes, sure. He is always in his office during office hours. It will be very easy for you to find him.
[Student] Oh, OK. Thank you very much.
[Teacher] You're welcome.
