听力原文：M: I’m Will Arditti, and (1) this week we’re going to talk about what students coming to study in the US can do to avoid culture shock in the classroom. We have invited Susan Iannuzzi. She’s an international consultant in English language teaching from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hi, Susan. Welcome.W: Thanks.M: So tell me what you did about
it.W: Well, actually, one of the things that we did at the University of Pittsburgh was that we ud the sports equivalence, which, you know, is not something we came up with. It’s the three conversational styles of, say, bowling, rugby and basketball. So, for example, (2) the bowling style. That would be considered something perhaps highly considerate, which means that people from tho countries would u a style where they would take turns and they would hold back if they’re a junior person and allow the older person or the more nior person to speak first. And then when they are asked for their opinion they would jump in.M: Just like you would take turns in a bowling game.W: Exactly. You go and roll and I’ll wait for you, and now it’s my turn, and everybody knows that there are going to be turns.M: So that’s the high-considerate model.W: Yes. Then there’miracless the rugby style, which might be the other end. And this is high-involvement. (3) And in this style you’re expected to interrupt other people and the other people are fine with that— they expect to be interrupted. So there’s a sort of rapid changing of topics, changing of speakers and overlapping of speeches. (4) This is a style that’s common in southern Europe, in African cultures, in cultures of Latin America, many voices happening at one ti
me. It’s also a style in Russia and Greece.M: And then the basketball model?W: (5) Well, the basketball model is a little bit clor to what we have here. So think about it as if you’re playing basketball. You’re carrying out the conversation. You’re just going along. And when you hesitate, other people e that as an opportunity to jump in and steal the ball, to steal the conversation away. Not in a bad way, just as “Oh, it’s my turn now. “This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are bad on what you have just heard.1. What is the interview mainly about?2.

听力原文：M: So what practical things would you recommend for someone who’s coming into this country and who really knows nothing about the styles that you’re talking about?W: Well, if they’re in an English language learning situation, I think it’s really helpful for them to realize that the other people that are there learning with them may come from different styles, so not to make judgments about them as “Oh, you’re rude. “ or “You’re inconsiderate. “gift or “You’re just very quiet and you never say anything.” Becau the things may not be someone’s true personality. They may just be the conversation style that they’re accustomed to.M: Yeah.W: (6) So, awareness, I think, is the number one thing. (7) It also helps if the instructors point the things out to people, becau it’s not something that most of us are going to reflect on in our own lives, thinkin
g about, well, how do I interact in a conversation? I don’t know what I do; I just do it.M: You’re saying that the basketball model tends to be maybe more the traditional style in the US classroom. But is that always the ca?W: (8) You know, the dynamic of each class is different. For example, in the MBA schools, the students are expected to do a lot of project work, so the professors may not be as involved in directing classroom interaction. There may be a lot of times when the students are working amongst themlves. (9)I would imagine in teacher-led class that this dynamic is much more apparent. I personally remember an instructor. I can’t remember where this professor was from, but the topic of the class just emed to change constantly, as if, you know, “And now we’re going to talk about something completely different. “ It made for a challenging time in taking notes.M: And then there are the challenges of everyday language. Even a common way that Americans avoid confusion when spelling a name out loud can be confusing if you’re not familiar with it.W: I remember a physician who had very good written English. He was ud to writing papers and he could even prent them very well becau he had prented them at international conferences. But when he went to t up
phone rvice, and (10) he was telling them “My last name starts with T.” and they would say “T like table?” he said “No, I报考消防工程师需要满足哪些条件’m not a table. I don’t need a table. It’s T.” And he didn’t understand that they were using this strategy, this device of associating, you know, the first letter of your name with a common object so that we make sure that we write a T instead of a D.M: OK, that’s all for our interview. Thanks for coming, Susan. Goodbye.W: My pleasure. Goodbye.This is the end of Part Two of the interview. Questions 6 to 10 are bad on what you have just heard.6. What does Susan think is the number one thing for someone in an English language learning situation?7.

听力原文：W: What are the advantages of (1) E-education, Professor Gu?M: (2-1) There are at least four advantages. First, with access to the Internet, students can overcome barriers of space and time. For example, we can make educational resources in Beijing available to students in Xinjiang. (2-2) Second, easy access. For example, we can put libraries of multimedia resources on the Internet and students can have access to the li
braries just by clicking the mou. (2-3) The third advantage is the optimization of resources. For example, we can tape the lectures given by very prominent professors and broadcast them live in China and even in the entire world through the Internet. (2-4/3-1) Becau of the three advantages, there is another big advantage, that is, the Internet technology makes mass education possible. As you know, it is simply impossible for the whole population to receive education on campus. It is impossible economically or otherwi. (3-2) And this is where the greatest advantage of E-education lies. It offers mass education and education for a lifetime.W: Can you briefly tell us the history of China’s E-education, Professor Gu?M: (4) E-education in China started eight years ago when the Internet technology began to prevail. People realized that the Internet technology was more powerful than TV, becau it really created the opportunities for students to interact with teachers and among themlves. In 1996 or later than that, the Ministry of Education initiated a piloting project using the Internet technology to promote education.W: My understanding is that an online education project may involve a large amount of money and yet most investors would expect a quick return for their investment,
so how did you solve that problem?M: This is the lesson that lots of investors have to learn from this initial investment into online education programs. (5-1) Initially, they thought it might be possible to have a quick return of cash after the investment for one or two years. It is a misconception of online education. Sometimes, I u a metaphor of building a supermarket. If you want to build a supermarket, first of all, you have to have the infrastructures. On top of the building, you have to develop various goods that people like. (5-2) It’s the same with education. You must realize you have to develop courware that people really love. And it takes quite a long time to develop really good courware.This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are bad on what you have just heard.1. What is the interview mainly about?2. Which of the following is among the advantages of E-education?3. According to Professor Gu, what is the greatest advantage of E-education?4.
