Question 18 to 22.You will hear another five recordings.For each recording, decide what the speaker’s purpose is.Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.After you have listened once, replay the recordings.You have 15 seconds to read the list A-H.[pause]Now listen, and decide what each speaker’s purpose is.[pause] EighteenMan: Hello. This is Guy Cooper from Centron Electronics here. I believe you rang for some advice about your alarm system, which isn’t functioning properly. The message I got said you weren’t sure if you needed someone to come and sort it out, or if we could advise you over the phone. Well perhaps you’d like to get back to me as soon as it’s convenient and tell me exactly what the problem is, and I’ll see what I can do.[pause] NineteenWoman: Well, as you say, Redlon has been supplying us for years but, quite honestly, two-thirds of the complaints we receive about our products are actually due to faults in components we’ve had from Redlon. So I talked to the Production Manager and he agreed that I should look at some alternatives. Future World’s range is fine for us, and one of their customers who I spoke to recommended them highly, so that’s why we’ve changed to using them.[pause] TwentyWoman: The competition’s getting tougher, and you know we’ve facing serious problems. Weneed to see more benefit from the undeniably hard work we’re putting in, and this means sayingno to jobs which aren’t profitable. It would be much more beneficial to put all our efforts into winning higher-margin contracts. So the way I feel you can help most is by identifying the types of contracts which bring in the income we need in order to ensure our future.[pause] Twenty-oneMan: John Woods here, phoning about the project we discussed earlier. Could you give me a ring so that we can talk about it a bit more? I’ve done a few calculations and I’m beginning to wonder whether it’s really a practical proposition. I still think the project’s got potential, but there are significant additional costs which we hadn’t taken into account. So could you get back to me as soon as you can, please?[pause] Twenty-twoWoman: Hello, Sally here, from Pagwell Paints, returning your call. I’m very sorry you aren’t happy with the latest consignment you’ve had from us. It’s rather strange, because following your complaint about the last delivery, we did in fact take action to change the specifications in the way you suggested. So it isn’t quite fair to say that we ignored your advice. I know it’s important to achieve the consistency that you require, but perhaps your recommendation wasn’t exactly what’s needed.[pause]Now listen to the recording again.[pause]That is the end of Part Two.Part Two 分析：1分类：places/addresses/topics/opinions/reasons/purposes/function2重点：purpose/topics/function3解题方法：1）审题，找中心词2）先听后选3）注意力分配：首句—方向；末句—信息最多but, however, so, thereforealthough, though, despite, in spite of4）注意陷阱:原词第四课时Part Two 分析：4 PURPOSE1) descriptivea. complaint: make, confirm product quality 产品质量b. appointment/meeting/invitation: make, confirm 时间/事件change 先道歉推迟(postpone) 取消(cancel) 细节变动confirm 先道谢c. assistance/permission/advice: ask for, give上级对下级是give，下级对上级是ask ford. satisfaction/appreciation/compliment/congratulationYou deserve it. 是你应得的。

We arrangedtraining course in July, but they won't be needed. We've run into some problems with the trainingroom. When it's sorted out we'll get back to you.Donald, this is Mary here. I'm trying to get the project leaders together to discuss the currentdelivery delays. I've provisionally booked Room W72 for Wednesday morning. Could you phoneround to see if everybody can make it?Hello, I wonder if you can help me. This is Bill Kennedy on 3416577. I am phoning to see if youhave any vacancies in your Accounts Department. I spoke to someone at the weekend who thoughtthere might be the possibility of a temporary position. And I'd like to find out more about it.Hi, it's Tom Ling. You left a message asking if I could attend the directors' meeting Friday lunchtime. I'm just calling to let you know that I'll be able to make it although I might be a few minuteslate. I've got an appointment with the dentist earlier on, but I hope to be back in time.Dave, it's Maisy. If you're free at the weekend, would you like to come with us to the theatre.

It's a complete waste of my time and my staffstime. When we ordered the photocopier from you, you assured us it would be installed byone of your engineers and set up ready for use. Well, all your engineer basically did is plug itin and that was that. And now every time we switch it on, we get a warning message. But wedon't know what it means because your man didn't even leave us a copy of the manual.19.Before we begin, I've been asked to tell you that Dr Jones has been delayed. That means hewon't make it in time for his presentation on 'Dealing with Complaints'. Unfortunately, thismeans we've had to cancel the session and anyone who signed up for it should now choosebetween the other two sessions which are running this afternoon. Thank you. And now I'llhand you over to Kate.20.I'm just ringing to tell you about the positive feedback we've had on the presentation yougave the other day. I really appreciate you stepping in like that at the last moment. I knowyou were a bit nervous, but I'm very grateful you agreed to do it. And looking at thefeedback forms, it seems the only complaint was about the size of the room. So, well done!21.I've checked with the Warehouse Manager and it seems there was a mix-up with thetransport documents and your order was somehow sent to Gatwick instead of Heathrow. Bythe time the driver got back to Heathrow, he'd missed the next flight out. And then there wasan announcement cancelling the last flight due to technical problems. Anyway, your orderwill be on the first plane tomorrow.22.Hello, David. This is Tina Woodhouse. I was just calling to say I'm actually busy on the 15th,so I won't be able to see you in the morning. In fact, I'll be out all that week. So, I waswondering, rather than delaying things any longer, could we bring everything forward to the14th? If that's OK. for you, perhaps you could call me.

Question 13 to 22.ThirteenWoman: Well no wonder the bank’s returned it unpaid. Look, the figures don’t match the amount in words. I expect someone was filling it in in too much of a hurry. Let’s see, we’d better issue another one straight away to pay Mrs Burton, because it’ll be another three weeks if we wait for the next cycle of payments. Her expenses on that sales trip were pretty high, and it wouldn’t be fair to keep her waiting much longer.[pause] FourteenMan: Some of the suppliers are already asking about the increases. I’ll check, but I seem to remember from last week’s meeting that in the end we agreed on three per cent. So that I’ll do is go down each column and calculate the new amounts, and then it can be printed in time to be inserted into the new brochures. Can you check the figures for me, though, before it goes to the printers?[pause] FifteenWoman: We’ve just received the paperwork from you about cleaning our premises, and I have to say that it doesn’t reflect what we agreed in our conversation last week. For one thing, it says that we have to supply our security code, and for another it specifies monthly payment in advance, and I told you both of those were out of the question. I’m afraid I really can’t sign this. Could you send me a revised one?[pause] SixteenMan: Of course, this only gives a very general picture. But as you can see, cash is a particularly healthy area. That’s even when we take into account regular outgoings on loans and leasing equipment, which are included in the final totals. And even more significantly, unpaid order are actually excluded from the final calculation. These represent a sum of approximately thirty thousand pounds. With that in mind, we can say that the company’s overall position is still strong. [pause] SeventeenWoman: I’ve just asked the Arden Conference Centre about availability for our next training seminar, and they said they still haven't been paid for the one before last.. I’ve had to ask them to send a duplicate! We really must be careful. Arden give us very favourable prices, but we haven’t got a contract with them – Can you deal with it straight away so we stay in their good books?第六课时Part ThreeI 分类对白、独白、谈话II Interview1 特点：（1）两人访谈，一问一答（2）提问--考题2 应对：（1）重视提问（2）重视提示词：a 转折词：but, yet, however, neverthelessb 最高级：the most, the leastc 比较：more than, prefer, rather thand 强调词：did do, only, just, simplye 因果词：so, thus, therefore, as a result, that's whyPART THREEQuestions 23 -30• You will hear a job applicant talking to the Personnel Manager of a chain of stores.• Choose the correct phrase to complete each sentence 23 - 30.• Mark one letter A, B or C for the phrase you choose.23.

Thank you for coming. Do take a seat.M Oh, thank you.F Right. I've looked through your letter of application and your curriculum vitae. uh…interesting! I see you're nearly twenty-seven. Well, I think I'd better tell you generally aboutthe job we have on offer here. It's an important position. It's an assistant manager ship reporting directly to the managing director. It covers several of the aspects of our business— supervising the purchasing of goods and deliveries, pricing, special offers and so on. Anyway, I see you have some experience with one of our main rivals. Can you tell me something about that?M Yes, well, er, after I left school, I joined Sparton's Stores as a trainee. I was eighteen then.F Yes?M Uh, after the initial six months' trial period, they sent me to their retail training centre for a month. Then I went back to the branch in Marx Town. I then went to the night school for 2 years to get a diploma in commerce.F Uh, yes.M And I did a short computer studies course at university last summer as well. Anyway I worked in the Marx Town branch for another couple of years. I really enjoyed it there. But then Sparton's moved me to the city centre branch. And it wasn't quite so good, I'm afraid.F mmm, why was that?M Well, I'm afraid the general manager and I had different opinions. There was a terrific downturn in retail sales six years ago. Shoppers weren't spending much. Anyway I thought we ought to advertise our goods in our store more widely to draw in more customers. I had a few ideas, but we couldn't agree on the policy. It was a shame. I had hoped to move up to the deputy assistant there. But the job was given to someone else.F mmmM so I thought it was time to move on.F I see. Well, uh, could you tell me what you do in your current job at, uh, ah, yes, Town and Country store, isn't it?M Yes, uh, I've been there for nearly two years now. I help with store displays and promotions. And I've also been in complete charge from time to time when the proprietor's away at trade fairs and so on. But my main job is to do with the shop assistants—there are nearly forty, mostly part-timers. I used to supervise the cleaners and also the typists at one time too, but it became too much.F So why are you looking for another job, Mr. Benn?M Well I expect you know it's a family firm. And there's really no chance of getting ahead. The proprietor's son will take over when Mr Richards retires in two years. So I'd like to get back into a big chain with a number of stores where there're more opportunities for training and promotion. So I must say the working conditions at Town and Country are pretty good.F Right, well, thank you, Mr. Benn. I expect you realise that our company moves its staff to different branches just like Sparton's. Now how would you feel about that?M Sure. That's all right by me. I was going to ask you something about that if I may?F Yes, yes, of course.M Well, I understand from the press that you recently opened three stores in three American cities. Is there any possi bility …uh…of being moved to one of those, after a time?F Well, uh, not really. All shop staff are recruited locally in America though the stores are being managed at present directly from our head office in Britain. The plan is for total independence with locally recruited managers within five years.M I see. Ah, and another question was to do with this position here again. Does it involve much contact with customers? I really enjoy getting to know what's selling well, how to give the bestservice and so on.F Yes, well, not a great deal really. That's generally dealt with by customer services. Ah, Now as I said, it's mostly dealing with our producers, checking that orders are delivered on time, checking product quality, and that sort of thing. Now, the general manager is the one who tries to understand the sales figures.M OK.F Anyway, if you were offered the job, Mr. Benn, when would you be able to start?M Well, I'm on four weeks' notice at Town and Country, but the proprietor's away for two weeks, so I wouldn't be able to see him until the beginning of next week. So it will take about six weeks, probably.F Right. I see. Well, I think we should discuss now the terms and conditions we could offer you here.
