【正确答案】 A、B、E
【答案解析】[听力原文]
Scholarship

Clerk: Good Morning. I amJeanette.
Student: Good morning. I am Don Balducci. I have been accepted as a freshman next year in the Faculty of Arts and I would like information on what scholarships are available to first year students.
Clerk: There are many scholarships available to first year students. Some are only for one year and others are for the full four years of the degree provided that you maintain a specific high average.
Student: What kind of marks do you need to apply for the scholarships?
Clerk: Well, the top 2 percent of the entering freshmen applicant pool are invited by the Faculty Committee on Honors, Awards and Prizes to compete for the David White scholarship. This is a scholarship of $10,000 a year. What are your marks like?
Student: I have a 92% average from my school, but I have not yet received the marks from my government exams.
Clerk: Well, if you get 95% or better on your government exams, you could definitely be considered as a candidate for the David White Scholarship. The government exam is weighted 50% and your local school marks are weighted 50%. Most students in the past who have received this award had an average of over 93% for their combined score.
Student: Hmm. If I don"t get 95%, would you say there was no use applying?
Clerk: Well, it certainly wouldn"t be likely that you would be awarded this scholarship, but there is nothing preventing you from applying. There are generally about 400 applicants a year.
Student: Does the David White award guarantee me housing in the university residence?
Clerk: Yes, it guarantees housing in residence for all four years provided you maintain the requisite 3.0 grade point average. Another bonus, if you have a car, is parking privileges at the residence.
Student: If I am not in the top 2 percent of entering freshmen, what other scholarships can I apply for?
Clerk: You could go to our website. The Faculty Committee selects students after a rigorous review of each student. Different awards have different criteria. Some scholarships and awards require you to write an essay while others look at extra-curricular activities, life hardships, distinctive personal achievement or letters of recommendation. It varies widely.
Student: How many scholarships are there in all to apply for?
Clerk: There are well over 100, however, filling out scholarship applications is a time-consuming job so I would recommend you narrow down the ones you want to apply for.
Student: Do most scholarships apply to all four years?
Clerk: No, most are on a yearly basis. The ones that are for the full four years, providing that you maintain your eligibility through the required GPA in all quarters, also usually give the additional privilege of preferential pre-enrollment. This has the advantage of giving you first crack at registering for the courses of your choice.
Student: Are all scholarships determined by the same committee?
Clerk: All full scholarships are. By the way, do you have a website address?
Student: Yes, I have it here on your card. I picked your card up when I was at the Open House in the spring.
Clerk: Good, well then I would suggest you go to the website now. If you have further questions, you could give me a call back.
Student: Okay. Thanks for your help.
Clerk: You"re welcome.
Student: Good Bye.
Clerk: Good Bye.
