history last time?1)Yes obviously.Although I describe myself as a sociable person,I also enjoy reading,since reading is the thingthat can help me calm down and2)I prefer detective stories like Holmes.I find it really exciting to let myself sink in the world of inference and Ialways dream about having a friend like Watson,who can accompany me to work out numerousproblems. 3)Yes I do.Visiting places like museums provides me with the chance to know about history and things aboutour ancestors,I believe it is an educative place for people of all ages to visit.4)When I was young,my parents told me a lot of the historic stories of China and also other countries,at thattime I thought history the subject is also about listening to the stories so I looked forward to learning the subject very much.But later when I actually learn about it,I found that there are also boring issues and things like the impact of the movement,the background of the new policy for me to memorize,so gradually I lost my interest.5)I am not a fan of history,so to be honest,the last time I read a book about history is the vacation that I was insenior high school,which is a task given by my history teacher.I found it really boring to read history, although it offers me with the opportunity to learn about things in the past and make me moreexperienced.Major1)What’s the most important part of your major?2)What’s the most interesting part of your major?3)Which one is more important,the teacher or the student?4)Is what you have studied closely related to your ideal job in the future?/Do you think it(your subject)will be helpful for you in the future?5)What can you learn from these courses?6)Are there any differences before and after studying these courses?What are they?1)My major is marketing,and for me the most important thing is to understand customers’needs and wants toserve them and co-operate with the R&D department to produce goods to satisfy their needs,and this is also difficult since sometimes customers themselves do not know what they actually need.2)My favorite course is microeconomics,since it is amazing for it to explain so many phenomenons and issueswith its theories,ranging from business activities,prisoner's dilemma,to daily activities.And it also enables the students to rethink about the things happening around themselves and give them the explanation in terms of economics.3)Both of the two are important.For teachers,it is important for them to shoulder the responsibilities to try tomake every student understand the knowledge they have taught,and for students,it is their task to respond to the teachers and spare every effort to work hard and get good results.4)I do not think so.Since I have done some internship before,and what I found is that sometimes marketing ismuch more than using the theories and models I learned from class,it is more related to connecting the company and the customers,it is a thing that needs the help of the whole company.5)I learned about various models,formulas,theories,and different solutions to problem that may happen inthe marketing process.It is of some use when companies really do marketing,but what needed to be learn is much more than these theories.To learn marketing well,one always have to make real actions.6)Well,marketing is a major that everyone knows something about it.The biggest difference before and after Istudy the courses is that I become more rational about the sales in the supermarket since I know they are all marketing,and also I think my knowledge network becomes clearer.Friend1)Do you have friends far away?2)Do you keep contact with your childhood friends?Why?3)Do you consider yourself as a good friend?1)Yes,she is one of my best friends in the university.We knew each other in our university life,and then wewent to different countries for study and work.Now,she lives in America and I work in Shanghai.The distance between us is pretty far,but we still try to find some time to contact with eachother.2)Unfortunately,I don’t do so.This is mainly because we both have different social circles as we grew up,andwe had fewer and fewer common topics.Now,it is embarrassing for us to have an afternoon tea with each other.3)I think so,because as a friend,I’m willing to listen to my friend’s complaints and doubts,and then I would liketo give some advices for her.In addition,I will try to find some helpful things to do to upgrade ourselves.For example,my friend and I have set a goal for cultivating the exercise habit.We do pump it up three times a week in the dormitory,and we have keep this for nearly half a year.Pen/pencil1)Which one do you prefer,pen or pencil?2)Which one do you used to use,pen or pencil?3)How do you feel if someone gives you a pen or pencil?4)When did you buy a pen or pencil last time?1)I prefer using pencils now.I used to write with a pen in my high school,but I find it is more convenient to usepencils.If I write something wrong,it is easier to change when I write inpencil.2)As I have said before,I used to use pen in my high school.High school students are required to use pen inexams,so our teachers ask us to write our homework and tests in pen so that we can adapt to do so in the exam.3)In my childhood,it should be a nice and pleasant gift for me because I liked collecting different pens andpencils,especially those pretty ones.But now,I couldn’t say it is a surprising gift because I don’t use them very often and I’m not a person enjoy writing.Instead,I’m used to typing on my laptop.4)I’m not sure the exact date,but it may be two months ago.As I’m a university student,I still have to use pensand pencils regularly,although most of our homework are required to be submitted in digital versions.And two months ago,I just experienced my mid-term exams,so I had to use pens in my exam.I remember in case of not enough pens,I bought some that time.Science1)Have you ever had science classes?2)Is there a science class in primary school?Do you think it is important?3)Should people learn science?4)Do you like science classes?5)What kind of science do you do?6)Is science important?1)Yes,of course I have taken science classes when I was in primary school.The teacher did some simple butinteresting experiments to teach us some basic knowledge about science.2)As far as I know,science classes are quite common in primary schools of China and science has become asubject of curriculum in elementary education.3)Yes,I do.Having science classes is efficient in satisfying children’s curiosity and helps them know more aboutthe world and nature.If without science classes,they will miss these precious chances to keep close ties with the whole planet.4)Yes,they should know more about science because it makes them explore the world in a deeper way andadapt themselves to this ever changing society.5)Well,it really depends on whether the lessons are difficult or not.Like if they are easy to understand andpractical in daily life,I am ok with them.But if they are super complicated and beyond my comprehension, then I am not into them.6)I have done plenty of researches in astronomy since I’m quite interested in star ing telescopesto watch sky is one of my favorite things,which really delights me when exploring the unknownworld.7)Yes,science definitely plays a vital role in the world evolution and human development,which is penetratedin every sector of people’s daily life.For instance,without basic scientific knowledge,people will never tell the weather for the next day,not to mention the appropriate clothes to wear.Without science,the whole nature and human beings will be haunted by darkness and chaos.Water sports1)Is water sports popular?2)What water sports do you like?1)I’m not that sure,but from what I can see,from the young people around me,they tend to favor water sports,such as scuba diving and surfing,to have fun,but maybe for others,especially the old generation,they will probably not be into it.2)I’m into all kinds of water sports,in terms of extreme ones,I’m keen on scuba diving and surfing becausedoing it makes me feel excited and I really get a good kick out of it.And in terms of something gentle,I prefer water yoga because it helps me keep fit.Art/Gallery1)Do you like art?2)Do you often go to gallery?3)Do you hang any pictures in your room?1)Well,it really depends on what kind of art it is,like if it’s realism painting that’s quite impressive,and I am able tocomprehend it,then I’m fond of it,but if it’s something beyond my understanding,then I’m not into it.2)I go to art gallery every now and then,like twice a month,if I am not caught up with work,then I will gothere with my friends to unwind myself,but if I am quite busy,then I won’t go.3)Yes,I do.I’m the type of person who is interested in colorful things so that I hang a copy of VanGogh’s sunflower paintings in my room to light up my mood.Voice1)Does your voice sound similar to your parents’?Why?2)Do you enjoy listening to your voice?3)Has your voice ever changed?1)I think my voice sounds similar to my mother’s.I spent a lot of time with my mom when I was little and Imimicked and followed her way of speaking.2)Well,when I practiced my speaking skills,I usually record my answer and listen to it by myself.To tell thetruth,I don’t like my voice.I think it sounds like a boy and sometimes I cannot recognize my voice.3)I haven’t notice that.But I think my voice has become lower with years.Walk or Running1)Do you enjoy running?Why?2)When did you do a long running last time?Why?3)Where do you walk?4)Do you think you walk more than before?5)Do you think people will walk more in the future?6)What types of sports TV programs do you enjoy watching?1)Yes,I enjoy running,that really helps me get rid of stress and brings me freedom even just for a few minutes.2)I ran about40minutes last night on a treadmill.I was really nervous about this test and running could helpme relax.3)I enjoy walking in the park nearby my home,where has a great view.My family and I usually take a walkafter dinner.4)I don’t think so.The shared bicycle,like ofo and halo,is very popular and convenient recently.I usually ridea bike instead of walking.5)I don’t think so.More traffic tools have been invented to facilitate people’s daily life recently,for example,the self-balance bike and electric bicycle.People can save the walking time to do some otherthings.6)I enjoy watch ball games,for example table tennis,basketball and badminton.My family and I like towatch the live coverage of world-class competition.Cake1)Do you like eating cakes?2)When do you have cakes?3)How do Chinese people feel about desserts?1)I like eating cakes,but my dentist keeps saying I ought to try to wean myself on sugary to protect myteeth.2)I have cakes once a month.I will reward myself by a piece of tiramisu if I work hard and exercise regularly inthis month.3)Chinese people like desserts and we have different types of desserts for different seasons and festivals.And each province has its typical desserts.Tea or Coffee1)What do Chinese people prefer?Tea or coffee?Why?2)What do you usually prepare for your guests,tea or coffee?3)When did you drank coffee or tea last time?1)For most Chinese,especially the older people,they prefer tea because they think tea is healthier.But someyoung people enjoying drinking coffee because coffee can refresh them when they are tired.2)It depends on the preference of the guest if I know what they like.Generally,I will prepare tea because I liketea more than coffee.3)Last time I drink coffee is several days ago when I prepared my final exam.I have to stay up late,so I drankcoffee to refresh myself.Patience1)Is being patient very important?Why or why not?2)Are you a patient person?3)When you are not patient,what do you do?4)What are the things that make you impatient?5)What do you do when waiting for bus?1)Patience is important because it enables us to control our emotions or impulses when faced with difficulties.2)Yes,I think I am a patient person.I can tolerate waiting,delay or frustration without becoming agitated or upset.Plus,I usually take the time to assess the situation,see the big picture,and weigh any pros and cons,which results in better decision-making.3)When I am not patient,I will take a deep breath and count silently to myself,which help control over my emotions.4)I describe myself as a calm person,and I am always patient.Maybe the thing that drives me crazy is thatothers do not show enough respect to me,like using my shampoo without my permission,or wearing my newly-bought dress to go to the party without even telling me.5)I always check my phone to make sure if there are new messages.If there aren’t any,I will go through thenews to see what is happening both in home and abroad.Music1)Do you like music?2)What's your favorite type of music?3)Have you ever learned to play a musical instrument?4)Which instrument would you prefer to study-the piano or the violin?5)Do you think it's important for children to learn(to play)a musicalinstrument?6)Do you think listening to music really helps you?7)When do you listen to music?8)Have you ever shared music with your friends?1)Yes,I do.I listen to music almost every day.I like to listen to music before I go to bed.The melody and rhythm helpme to relax and have a sound sleep.2)Country music is my favorite.My favorite country music singer is Taylor Swift who is gorgeous and gifted,herfamous song,Love Story,is my favorite song of this type.However,Taylor now turns into a pop singer who makes me feel a little bit sad and disappointed.3)Yes,I have learned how to play guitar since I was10years old.Now,with more than10years'practice and study,Iam a master of guitars.I perform every year at the anniversary celebration of our university.4)I prefer to study how to play the violin.As I have mentioned,I can play the guitar well,and the way to play theviolin is somehow similar to the guitar.I mean both of the instruments require the player to use the left hand to press the string.I believe it is easier for me to learn the violin.5)Yes,I do.Learning a musical instrument can help children to cultivate their interest in music and art.They will alsodiscover the beauty of music and composition thus developing aesthetic value.6)Yes,I think music is the best medicine to cure my pain and sorrows,it is just like magic.I mean,it is so magicalfor music to express so many different moods only with the change of the beat and sequence of the notes.When I listen to the melody of mu favorite song,I feel cured and are ready to continue mywork.7)Actually I am not fully used to listening to music when I am doing my homework,just like other students do.Iam more used to listening to the music when I feel lonely,tired,or sad,since I think it is a good way to cheer myself up.8)Yes we do share songs with each other.It has become a hit today to share songs in social medias to expressfeelings,or only to share them without any purpose.For me,the reason for me to share is that I want to like these songs with good melody or moving lyrics to my friends,just like sharing my birthday cake.Math1)Do you think mathematics is important?2)Do you think it’s difficult to learn mathematics well?3)Are girls generally good at mathematics?4)Do you often use a calculator?5)Are you good at mathematics?6)Is it important to use mathematics in your field?7)Are you good at remembering numbers?1)Yes,I think it is.We all need a basic grounding in maths so that we can do daily tasks,like managing our money,working out bills,and so on.But for some advanced mathematics,it depends on what you do.For example,if you are a programmer,math would be very important.But if you are a writer,math is not quiteuseful.2)Yes,of course.Learning math is just like solving puzzles.My math teacher once told me it would be satisfyingwhen you could get an answer.Unfortunately,as I grew up,especially after being introduced to more advanced math,I can hardly feel this sense.So personally I find it quite difficult to learn mathwell.3)Emm…I do not think girls are generally good at mathematics,especially advanced mathematics.Although girlsare generally careful enough to do some simple math problems and calculations,they behave worse in mathematical logic.Plus,many girls consider math is too far over their heads.4)It depends.I like to exercise my brain with some simple calculations,but I use a calculator to cope with thecomplex stuff.5)I have to say,no,I am not.When I was in junior high school,I tend to be the top students since I was reaalygood at maths,but afterwards,when I started senior high school,things becomes different and sometimes I found it difficult to work out these problems,sometimes I cannot even find the right formula touse.6)Yes of course,maths is important in commercial majors like marketing.Sometimes we have to do surveys andanalyze the raw data to reach to a conclusion.Without good skills in maths and statistics,sometimes it is difficult to complete the process.7)Yes I am.I have the ability of memorizing phone numbers,whenever others tell me a number through phone,do not need to write it down on the piece of paper,instead,I am able to memorize it until I call this number to the person I would like to talk with.Laugh1)Do you like to watch movies or TV shows that make people laugh?2)When did you laugh last time?3)Do you think it important to laugh with friends?1)Yes,I really like,such movies or TV shows make me feel relaxed and happy.When I was in bad mood,I’m muchmore willing to watch comedies,because they can help me to transfer my attention and go out of the shadow. 2)I’m a girl who really like to laugh,so I think last time I laugh should be yesterday.I was watching a talkingshow program yesterday night,and there were some jokes in the show which make me laugh out of tears.Even now I think of them,I still find it was funny.3)Yes,of course.In my opinion,friends mean people who I would like to spend time with them.The timeshould be joyful,pleasant and ughing with friends seems to be the happy experience,and it helps to reinforce our friendship.Spending time by yourself1)Do you like spending time by yourself?2)What did you do last time you were by yourself?3)What do you usually do when you spend time by yourself?1)Yes,I enjoy spending time by myself.In other words,I enjoy doing something alone.We have to social withothers not only in life but in our work time.It has been more and more difficult to have our real private time,I mean the time just for myself.Therefore,I like to do something alone to enjoy that private time whichmakes me to think something or just relax.2)I read a book before I slept.Always,the bed time completely belongs to me,and I choose to read books atthat time.I remember I read a detective book last night,and the plot was pretty attractive and a little scaring.I like that book and I wonder what happened then,so I still will read it tonight.3)One of my habits is baking,and usually I do it when I’m alone.And every time I do baking,I hope no onewould disturb me.Focusing on it makes me feel relaxed and peace.It is a kind of way to release my pressure in daily life.Also,I would like to read books which I’m interested in to spend time bymyself.Park1)Are public parks very important in China?2)Are there many public gardens in China?3)Do you think there are enough parks or gardens in your hometown?4)What do you think are the benefits of having gardens in the city?5)Why do people who live in cities like publicgardens?1)Yes.In China,you can see lots of parks.It not only does god to the environment,but also provides a placefor he old to do morning exercise.2)Yes.These parks not only do god to the environment,but also provide a place for he old to do morning exercise.3)I think so.in my hometown,you can see public parks nearly everywhere ad it’s enough for people to havea rest or do morning exercise.4)Plants in gardens can absorb the pollution in the air and people can rest ad do morning exercise ingardens.5)Because people in cities seldom have chance to go to countryside to enjoy the fresh air and contact withnature.However,gardens are the only way city people can enjoy the nature.haircut1)What’s your favorite hairstyle?2)How often do you have your hair cut?3)How much do you usually spend on your haircut?4)Do you often change your haircut?1)I prefer short hair because it

year.The beautiful weather and delicious seafood attract my interests.3)I live in a apartment which is located in the center of my hometown.Its transportation is veryconvenient.4)No,I will move to another place when I graduate.Because I want to live by myself and try to be independentrather than relying on my parents.5)From my window,I can see the building next to my apartment.It was an office building that includes manylittle companies.6)I didn’t live in the countryside for a long time,but I usually spent my summer holiday in the countryside in myprimary school because my grandparents lived there.Since my parents both have their work in the day,I was asked to go to the countryside when I was in summer holiday.In my memory,the life there was interesting.I had peers to play together and my grandparents cooked yummy dishes.Most importantly,I didn’t have to do homework that time.7)I don’t think so,because I have lived in city for almost20years,and I have been used to living in cities.Thismeans it is very inconvenient for me to live in the countryside.My company,my friends and my parents are all in the city,I will feel lonely if l go to the countryside.Work or Study1)Where

life in journey.4)My major is English education and I focus on the teaching strategies in classroom for students who do notspeak English as their first language.5)I enjoy learning my subjects and I think my major is very useful for the current education situation of Englishin China.6)I learned the teaching strategies in language classrooms.For example,how to plan a lesson,how tocommunicate with students and how to assess students language competence are all the categories I need to work on.Jeans1)How often do you wear jeans?2)Do you like wearing jeans?3)Why are jeans popular?4)Will jeans be popular in the future?1)I don’t wear jeans very often because I think jeans are too casual for work.I only wear jeans on weekendsfor informal occasions.2)I like wearing jeans because jeans are durable,especially Denim.Denim is typically thicker than regularpants and,if taken well care of,can last for years.3)Because that jeans are versatile and can be worn with casual and dressy casual outfits.In some companies,theycan even be worn to work.Apart from that,jeans can also be dressed up with a nice shirt or sports jackets.4)Jeans have been worn for more than100years and are by far the most popular style.I believe jeans aretime-tested and will be popular in the future.Visiting hometown1)How often do you go back to your hometown?2)How often do you visit your grandparents?3)What do you bring as gifts when you go back for visits?4)Do you enjoy visiting friends more or families more?1)Since I’m a college student,I go back to my hometown on every summer and winter holiday.So,I go backtwice a year.But if there’s something emergency happens at home,I’ll also go back then.2)Well,that really depends.As my grandparents live in the rural area,so I need to catch a two-hour bus to go totheir place.And during my staying at home,time is really limited,so the real circumstance maybe they will come and see me at my home.I feel bad about that,I should go and visit them moreoften.3)Normally that would be the local food and snacks from the place I currently live in.For other times,I’ll bringsome souvenirs when I was just back from a trip to home.I think it’s a good tradition because it shows my love and caring to my family.4)To be honest,I enjoy visiting my friends more.Cause they share common topics and interests with me,Inever find it boring staying with them.Whereas as for my families,they may expound something mechanically to me and ask me to do it.I feel uncomfortable doing so,but on the other side,I love my family.So,it’s really a dilemma for me,every time when I visit them,I feel struggle inside.Vacation1)How often do you go on vacation?2)Do you want a long or short vacation?3)What was the most exciting thing you experienced in a trip?4)Tell me about your dream vacation.1)I go on vacation twice every year.In July and August,my family go abroad together to relax ourselves aftermonths of hard works.In winter vacation,which is around Febuary,I would go back to myhometown.2)I prefer a short vacation.Sometimes I get bored in summer vacation and find nothing to do in late August.Short vacation is better for relaxation and is easy to get back to work.3)When I was on vacation in Hawaii,I went scuba diving and saw various of fishes and marine species,forinstance schools of jelly fish,pen fish,even clusters of sea cucumbers.4)My dream vacation is going to the Great Britain with person I like.It does not need to a long vacation----afew days would be fine.We can get up in late morning and have brunch in the cafe

2020 年12 月26 日雅思考试真题机经及参考答案参考文章:AEver since the unguentari (古罗马时期玻璃器皿) plied their trade in ancient Rome, perfumers have to keep abreast of changing fashions. These days they have several thousand ingredients to choose from when creating new scents, but there is always demand for new combinations. The bigger the 'palette' of smells, the better the perfumer's chance of creating something fresh and appealing. Even with everyday products such as shampoo and soap, kitchen cleaners and washing powders, consumers are becoming increasingly fussy. And many of today's fragrances have to survive tougher treatment than ever before, resisting the destructive power of bleach or a high temperature wash cycle. Chemists can create new smells from synthetic molecules, and a growing number of the odours on the perfumer's palette are artificial. But nature has been in the business far longer.BThe island of Madagascar (马达加斯加) is an evolutionary hot spot; 85% of its plants are unique, making it an ideal source for novel fragrances. Last October, Quest International, a company that develops fragrances for everything from the most delicate perfumes to cleaning products, sent an expedition to Madagascar in pursuit of some of nature's most novel fragrances. With some simple technology, borrowed from the pollution monitoring industry, and a fair amount of ingenuity, the perfume hunters bagged 20 promising new aromas in the Madagascan rainforest. Each day the team set out from their "hotel"-a wooden hut lit by kerosene lamps, and trailed up and down paths and animal tracks, exploring the thick vegetation up to 10 meters on either side of the trail. Some smells came from obvious places, often big showy flowers within easy reach. Others were harder to pin down. “Often it was the very small flowers that were much more interesting,”says Clery. After the luxuriance (肥沃) of the rainforest, the little-known island of Nosy Hara was a stark, dry place-geologically and biologically very different from the mainland. “Apart from two beaches, the rest of the island is impenetrable, except by hacking through the bush," says Clery. One of the biggest prizes here was a sweet-smelling sap weeping from the gnarled branches of some ancient shrubby trees in the parched interior. So far no one has been able to identify the plant. CWith most flowers or fruits, the hunters used a technique originally designed to trap and identify air pollutants. The technique itself is relatively simple. A glass bell jar or flask is fitted over the flower. The fragrance molecules (分子) are trapped in this ‘headspace’and can be extracted by pumping the air out over a series of filters which absorb different types of volatile molecules. Back home in the laboratory, the molecules are flushed out of the filters and injected into a gas chromatograph for analysis. If it is impossible to attach the headspace gear, hunters fix an absorbent probe close to the source of the smell. The probe looks something like a hypodermic syringe, except that the 'needle' is made of silicone rubber which soaks up molecules from the air. After a few hours, the hunters retract the rubber needle and seal the tube, keeping the odour molecules inside until they can be injected into the gas chromatograph in the laboratory.DSome of the most promising fragrances were those given off by resins (树脂) that oozed from the bark (树皮) of trees. Resins are the source of many traditional perfumes, including frankincense and myrrh (乳香和没药). The most exciting resin came from a Calophyllum (胡桐)tree, which produces a strongly scented medicinal oil. Thesap of this Calophyllum smelt rich and aromatic, a little like church incense. But it also smelt of something like fragrance industry has learnt to live without, castoreum (海狸香),a substance extracted from the musk glands of beavers and once a key ingredient in many perfumes. The company does not use animal products any longer, but it was wonderful to find a tree with an animal smell.EThe group also set out from the island to capture the smell of coral reefs. Odors that conjure up sun kissed seas are highly sought after by the perfume industry. “From the ocean, the only thing we have is seaweed (海带),and that has a dark and heavy aroma. We hope to find something unique among the corals,”says Dir. The challenge for the hunters was to extract a smell from water rather than air. This was an opportunity to try Clery’s new “aquaspace”apparatus (小装置)–a set of filters that work underwater. On Nosy Hara, jars were fixed over knobs of coral about 2 meters down and water pumped out over the absorbent filters. So what does coral smell like? “It’s a bit like lobster and crab,”says Clery. The team’s task now is to recreate the best of their captured smells. First they must identify the molecules that make up each fragrance. Some ingredients may be quite common chemicals. But some may be completely novel, or they may be too complex or expensive to make in the lab. The challenge then is to conjure up the fragrances with more readily available materials. “We can avoid the need to import plants from the rainforest by creating the smell with a different set of chemicals from those in the original material, ”says Clery. "If we get it right, you can sniff the sample and it will transport you straight back to the moment you smelt it in the rainforest. "Question 14-18The reading Passage has five paragraphs A-EWhich paragraph contains the following details?Write the correct letter A-E in boxes 14-18 on your answer sheet.NB You may use any letter more than once.14.One currently preferred spot to pick up plants for novel finding15.A new task seems to be promising yet producing limited finding in fragrance source16.The demanding conditions for fragrance to endure.17.A substitute for substance no longer available to the perfume manufacture18.Description of an outdoor expedition on land chasing new fragrances.Question 19-23Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 2?In boxes 19-23 on your answer sheet, writeTRUE if the statement is trueFALSE if the statement is falseNOT GIVEN if the information is not given in the passage19.Manufacturers can choose to use synthetic odours for the perfume nowadays.20.Madagascar is chosen to be a place for hunting plants which are rare in other parts of the world.21.Capturing the smell is one of the most important things for creating new aromas.Audiences can enjoy the full theatre making process, peek behind the scenes and maybe even spot an actor or two dashing from the stage to their dressing room or enjoying a coffee in the café.

LISTENING TEST 2 - SCRIPTSNARRATOR: You will hear a number of different recordings and you will have toanswer questions on what you hear. There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions and you will have a chance to check your work. All the recordings willbe played once only. The test is in four sections. At the end of the test you’ll be given10 minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet.Now turn to Section 1.SECTION 1You’ll hear a travel agent talking to a client. First, you’ll have some time to look at questions 1-5.seconds][20 You’ll see that there is an example which has been done for you. On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first.A GENT: Good morning, Global Travel, How can I help?C LIENT: Oh hello, yes, I’d like to speak to someone about booking a flight to Ireland. NARRATOR: The client wants to book a flight to Ireland, so Ireland is written in the space.Now we shall begin. You should answer the questions as you listen because you willnot hear the recording a second time. Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5.A GENT: Good morning, Global Travel, How can I help?C LIENT: Oh hello, yes, I’d like to speak to someone about booking a flight to Ireland.A GENT: Right, I can help with that. Er, what would you like to know?C LIENT: Um, what kind of prices and specials do you have?A GENT: Well, there’s a couple of options when flying to the UK. You can flythrough America and have a stopover there to break up the journey, although you would require a visa for that. The application process is quite straightforward though so there shouldn’t be any problem.C LIENT: Oh, I’m not really interested in stopping off anywhere; I just want to get to Ireland quickly. My sister’s getting married and the whole family will be there.A GENT: That’s lovely. In that case there are some good deals on direct flights fromSydney to London, with a short transfer in London, then on to Dublin.C LIENT: Okay. And how much is that option?A GENT: What date are you looking at departing?C LIENT: July 9. And the wedding is on the 15th so the last day I can arrive in Ireland is the 14th, I suppose.A GENT: Okay, just a second. Let me just check here on the system. Ah yes, there we are – a return ticket would be $3,500.C LIENT: Oh. I was hoping for something a little cheaper.A GENT: Well, you could leave a couple of days earlier, there’s a deal with Swift Air but the only thing there would be a compulsory two day stay in Bangkok. You’d still get there on time for the wedding, and the fare is $500 cheaper though. But there is a minimum stay of two weeks in the UK.C LIENT: Yeah, yeah. That’s definitely worth it. And I want to stay longer than two weeks in the UK anyway.A GENT: There’s one more option, and that’s to get a round-the-world ticket, whichsometimes ends up being cheaper and giving you more options.C LIENT: OK, what kind of options?A GENT: Well, you can make as many as six stopovers with this type of ticket and itremains open for up to 12 months. So you could go via South America, and stop off there, and then up to the United States and then on to the UK. Then, on the w ay....C LIENT: (interrupts) No, no, no. I don’t have enough annual leave to do all that! I think the flight through Bangkok sounds like the best option.A GENT: Did you want me to go ahead and make a booking for you?C LIENT: Yeah, that’d be great. ……………………………………………………………………………………………NARRATOR:Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to lookat questions 6 to 10.seconds][20Now listen and answer questions 6 to 10.A GENT: Right, well I’ll just take down a few of your details. What’s your full nameplease?C LIENT: Sharmane Mary Salter.A GENT: Could you just spell your first name for me?C LIENT: Sure. It’s S-H-A-R-M-A-N-EA GENT: And I’ll just note down your departure date of July 7. You’ll arrive in Dublinon July 10.C LIENT: Right. How long is the flight in total?A GENT: Um, let me check: yes, from Bangkok to London is 12 hours, then anotherhour or s o on to Dublin.C LIENT: Okay. And what time do I arrive in Dublin?A GENT: Let’s see...that will be 11 pm local time. Is that okay?C LIENT: Yes, that’s fine.A GENT: Okay, so the full amount to pay, including taxes is $3,200. We just requirea 10% deposit and payment in full one month prior to departure.C LIENT: Sure. Do you take credit cards or is it cash only?A GENT: We accept both. What’s your card type and number?C LIENT: It’s Mastercard and the number is 5689 2366 2255 5877.A GENT: And your address please?C LIENT: 25 Bancroft Street, Manly. Will you send out the tickets or do I need tocome and pick them up.A GENT: We usually ask our clients to come in and pick them up from our branch inBurrell Ave, which is opposite the downtown mall. I’ll just give you your flight numbers now: you’re leaving Sydney on Flight SW 689 and returning fromDublin on Flight DF 691.C LIENT: Thank you. Oh, there’s one other thing – do you provide travel insurance?A GENT: Yes, we do. I think our 30 day Gold Star policy would cover your needs. It’s very comprehensive.C LIENT: Okay -what does that policy cover me for?A GENT: Let’s see, we’ve got loss of luggage, cancelled flights, personal theft and ofcourse hospital and medical cover.C LIENT: Oh, I don’t need medical cover because I’m a UK citizen. Is there another option without it?A GENT: Yes, in that case you would be fine with our Silver Star policy. It’s a little bit less expensive as well.C LIENT: Mmm yes, that sounds good. Is there anything else I need to do?A GENT: Um, no, that’s fine; I think I’ve got all the information I need. And I’ll give you a ring when your tickets are ready to pick up.NARRATOR:That is the end of section 1. You now have half a minute to check your answers.[30 seconds] Now turn to section 2.SECTION 2You will hear a Community Education officer talking to a group of people about a geology trip.First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 15.[20 seconds] Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 15.Good morning, everyone. I'm just going to take a few minutes to talk to you about the geology field trip that we have coming up. As you know, this trip is for people who are interested in rocks and fossils, and we think you’ll find it an interesting weekend.Originally we had planned to go to the south of England but that became complex, so now we’ll be going to a place on the west coast of Wales which has veryinteresting rock formations. We also drive through an interesting rocky area near the Welsh border that we could do a day trip to sometime next year. Many of the rocks and fossils we’ll be looking at are described in the reading material which we’ll be giving you before you go home today.So, ...we leave on Friday, August 13th and come back on Sunday at around 8 pm. We did consider asking people to take their own vehicles but decided that it’s much more fun to hire a coach and all travel together, er.... which we still need to confirm but if there any problems, we can all get there by train. So be here at the community hall car park at 5 pm on Friday night unless you hear otherwise.Now, we’d really appreciate it if you could limit your luggage. We have had people bring huge suitcases before and others who are hiking enthusiasts and bring large back packs, but to be honest, you can keep your luggage down to just one weekend bag and a small back pack for going out with each day. And you don’t need heaps of clothes and beauty products out there in the countryside...let’s get back to nature for a couple of days.Don’t worry about bringing food because we’ll be staying at the Lodge and all your meals will be provided. They cook great meals out there. But for those of you who get hungry, you could bring along some snacks or buy some there. They do have a snack bar which only sells chips and candy. If you prefer nuts and raisins or muesli bars, we’d advise you to bring your own. And you’ll need to bring soft drinks too as the Lodge only provides hot drinks and juice at lunch time.One thing I need to know from you today, if possible, is what type of accommodation you’d like. The Lodge has dormitories where eight people can sleep in one room. This costs $40 a night. These rooms are fairly basic and they have shared bathroom facilities which are a short walk away. But for those of you who like your comfort, there are motel rooms. These have their own coffee and tea making facilities and ensuite bathrooms. Of course, they will cost you more...$120 a night per room. If you choose to stay in a dormitory, you also need to bring your own linen and towels, but the motel rooms provide those for you.NARRATOR:Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 16 to 20.[20 seconds] Now listen and answer questions 16 to 20.Okay, now I’ll just run through a few more details of what we’ll be doing on the field trip. Our timetable each day will be similar. You’ll be woken up at 7am and breakfast is at 7.45. At 8.45 we get ready to go for our daily hike to different areas where we can study rock formations and collect samples. The Lodge will provide everybody with a packed lunch, which is usually sandwiches, cake and fruit. Please tell the cook if you have any food allergies.We won’t get back until around 2 or 3 pm each day. Then there’ll be an hour when you can do some research in the library and write up your notes. At 4 pm, we’ll get together and have a study session to discuss what we’ve learned. You can show each other the rock samples you’ve collected and tell each other what you know about them. It’s also an opportunity to ask the experts some questions.5.30 to6.30 is your hour’s free time before dinner and time to relax. On Friday evening, you can just look around the place, chat together and settle in, but on Saturday evening, we have some games planned and we usually find this very entertaining.The coach leaves after dinner on Sunday to bring us all back to the community hall by 8pm. Remember to organise for somebody to pick you up as going by public transport with your luggage may be difficult.Right,... so the things you need to take hiking with you each day are: some walking boots...good, sturdy ones..., wet weather gear....don’t worry about waterproof trousers, just a jacket is fine....., a back pack for your lunch and pen and paper.....you can leave the text books at the Lodge. And water bottles are essential.And before I leave you today, please fill in this form so I know which type of accommodation you’d like...the dormitories or a motel room.Thanks for your time. If you have any questions or need any further information, feel free to ask.NARRATOR:That is the end of section 2. You now have half a minute to check your answers.[30 seconds] Now turn to section 3.SECTION 3You’ll hear a student talking to his thesis supervisor. First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 25.[20 seconds] Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 25.S UPERVISOR: Hi Philip, it's good to see you. How has your research come along since lastspoke?weP HILIP: Well, I've found some great material, but I feel like I need a lot more.S UPERVISOR:Ah yes, most thesis students have this problem.P HILIP: Good to hear!S UPERVISOR:This is much bigger than anything you've had to do in the past.P HILIP: Ye-es but I've been wondering if I should modify my research questions...S UPERVISOR:Not at all – yours have great focus.P HILIP: So why am I finding this so difficult?S UPERVISOR: Well, students are used to researching for shorter assignments.P HILIP: Yes, my dissertation last year was the longest thing I've written.S UPERVISOR: And that was what, eight thousand words?P HILIP: About that.S UPERVISOR: Well, your thesis is going to be forty thousand words. It requires a very special style of research.P HILIP: What do you mean?S UPERVISOR: Well, you need to spend more time covering every possible source of information.P HILIP: Well, I've searched the PAIS and IBSS journal databases....S UPERVISOR: That's a very good start, but …P HILIP: But not enough for a thesis?S UPERVISOR: No. The ones you’ve looked at have good coverage of mainstream journals, but there’s a lot more out there.P HILIP: Like what?S UPERVISOR: Well, even though yours is a politics thesis, a lot of scholars writing onwill not be political scientists.topicparticularyourP HILIP: Right, of course. They could be geographers, sociologists, anthropologists, and so on?S UPERVISOR: Yes. However, their research may be extremely relevant.P HILIP: I see.S UPERVISOR: So, you'll need to look around in the databases of different subjects. You could try anthropology and geography.P HILIP: Great, I'll make a note of those.S UPERVISOR: The only thing is you might have trouble with the geography texts.P HILIP: What do you mean?S UPERVISOR: They are written primarily for geographers who employ different vocabulary – not the same as we're used to in political studies.P HILIP: Oh okay, sounds like they could be difficult.S UPERVISOR: If you do have trouble, you could check out the International Encyclopaedia of Human Geography.S UPERVISOR: And another thing … when you are searching journals and databases, be sure to cover a broad range of search terms.P HILIP: I'm not sure I follow you...S UPERVISOR: Well, your research covers events in Eastern Europe, right?P HILIP: Right.S UPERVISOR: However, not all relevant articles will use the exact term “eastern Europe”; in fact, many studies will refer to specific countries. So be sure to include individual country search terms as well, and you’ll pick up a lot more.P HILIP: That's great advice, thank you.S UPERVISOR: No problem. Now, did you have any other questions? ……………………………………………………………………………………………NARRATOR:Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 26 to 30.[20 seconds] Now listen and answer questions 26 to 30.P HILIP: Yes, I have some questions concerning my long-term plan for this year. S UPERVISOR: Sure.P HILIP: When should I start writing a first draft?S UPERVISOR: Depends on the student. Does writing come easily to you?P HILIP: Not really...S UPERVISOR: You'll want to start early then. But make sure you begin with an outline, and piece the rest in slowly. But you need to avoid the problem ofinsight.endnowithresearchingP HILIP: Right. I'll pick a date to and try and stick to it.S UPERVISOR: Good idea.P HILIP: Okay, how about the first or second week of August then? I'll aim tomyresearch by August, or maybe September...completeS UPERVISOR: Early August is best. You can do some minor referencing after that, but don't keep adding new information. Then you have one month of solidwriting to complete a first draft.P HILIP: When do you want that?S UPERVISOR: Well, I'm going overseas from September 13th until early October. If you want me to read it over before the oral presentation, then leave a hard copy in my pigeon hole which I’ll collect before the 10th of September.P HILIP: Okay. Now, about the oral presentation in October … Do I really have to30minutes?forspeakS UPERVISOR: No. The time allotted to you will be about half an hour, but it is not a presentation.formalP HILIP: So I won't be speaking for the whole time?S UPERVISOR: No, it usually takes the form of a casual discussion. Students will askadvice;offerwe will discuss any problems...questions,IwillP HILIP: Sounds fairly low key.S UPERVISOR: Yes, but the more prepared you are, the more you will get out of it.P HILIP: Great. Now my final question is about the November deadline for thethesis.S UPERVISOR: Remember – there won’t be any time extension, so aim to wind things up with at least a week to spare.P HILIP: Okay. And the formal bounded copy is handed in on the 30th?S UPERVISOR: That's right. Anything else?P HILIP: No, that's all. Thanks for seeing me!S UPERVISOR: No problem. Bye.NARRATOR:That is the end of section 3. You now have half a minute to check your answers.[30 seconds] Now turn to section 4.SECTION 4You’ll hear a talk about an animal called a dugong.First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40.[20 seconds] Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40.Today you’re going to hear about one of my favourite animals – the dugong. I’m sure you’ve all seen photographs of, or maybe even documentaries about, this enormous but gentle marine mammal.Now, firstly, a few vital statistics: The dugong can grow up to three metres long and they’re very heavy creatures, weighing in at over 400kilograms. If they survive without interference or accident, they can reach an age of 70 years or more. You may have heard the dugong called something more familiar – it is often referred to as a sea cow – this is because it is unique among marine mammals in that it is entirely herbivorous. It grazes exclusively on plants and, for this reason, is probably more closely related to the elephant than to other marine mammals such as dolphins or whales.You’ll see, in this first slide [click], that Dugongs are quite rotund and, like the dolphin, they have a flattened fluked tail but, unlike dolphins, they don’t have a dorsal fin on their upper back. They have paddle-shaped flippers (I’ll tell you more about these later) and a quite distinctive head contour. They have very large mouths with an upper lip that is covered in bristles, like whiskers, I suppose. Can you see them? Ah, here, in this slide [click] there is a close-up view of the head and mouth. These bristles play an essential role in their feeding routine – without them they wouldn’t be able to find and nibble on the sea grass which is the mainstay of their diet. They have two nostrils near the front of the head so they can breathe air above the surface of the water whilst their body, or most of it anyway, remains submerged.I’d like to talk a little about their habitat and behaviour, now. Although dugongs can be found in the waters of up to 40 Indo-Pacific countries, it is the Australian population that we will focus on in this talk. They inhabit shallow, warm water off Queensland going all around the northern coast of the continent to WA. There are probably about 80,000 dugongs in these waters. As I said before, they consume aquatic grass – around 50kilograms a day. You’ll see in this slide [click] how theyuse their flippers - it looks as though the dugong is actually ‘walking’ on the seabed. Their average swimming speed has been calculated to be around 10 kilometres an hour. Some marine mammals can stay submerged for long periods of time but not so the dugong. Typically, the dugong holds its breath for between one and three maybe, a maximum of, six minutes, depending on the level of its activity.I’m going to move on to talk about the conservation status of the dugong. Dugongs are very slow to mature – and the female only has a calf about once every 5 years. The calf stays with the mother for up to 2 years. There are several natural predators, mostly sharks, which account for most of the juvenile fatalities, but crocodiles and killer whales also kill dugongs. However, as is the case with so many endangered species, it’s us, humans, who are the main threat to their survival. Of course, they have traditionally been hunted for food, but boat propellers, set nets and habitat destruction are all having serious effects on their numbers. Dugongs are particularly vulnerable because they live in shallow water where they are more likely to get caught in nets; not just fishing nets but, here in Australia, the shark nets. These anti-shark measures have become popular at swimming beaches since the 1960s. Unfortunately, once a dugong becomes entangled in a net, it can’t surface to breathe and drowns. Proponents of the shark nets argue that the number of dugongs being caught in nets is dwindling; however, this is seen by dugong researchers as just another indication of a substantial depletion in dugong populations from all causes. Therefore, their argument for the elimination of shark nets is stronger than ever.NARRATOR:That is the end of section 4.
