OG Test2 Section3聽力原文

Martina:Oh hi George,how is it going?

George:Hi Martina,it’s going well.How about you?How’s university life?

Martina:Well it’s great–apart from the studying of course.

George:Yeah–me too!What are you studying?I seem to remember that you were going to do Art.That was your best subject.wasn’t it?

Martina:No–not really–I just liked the teacher.He was French and had an amazing accent.My favourite subject was History(Q21)but I couldn’t see what career that would give me.

George:All right.So what did you choose?

Martina:Well I found it really difficult to decide.I was really good at Science but I must admit I never really enjoyed studying it.So,in the end I decided to opt for English(Q22)which was my second favourite subject and I thought it would be more useful to me than studying anything else.So–that’s what I’m doing,Um–how are you finding university?

George:Well–it’s a bit of a challenge I suppose,

Martina:Are you finding it difficult?

George:Well.some of it,I’m doing Mechanical Engineering which is really interesting but it covers quite a lot of areas like materials science,machine design,physics and course mechanics–and they’re all fine.But it’s maths(Q23)that I’m struggling with.It’s a lot harder than it was at school.

Martina:I can believe it.It all sounds very difficult to me.But then I never was very good at mechanical things.I suppose it must involve some practical work?

George:Well–not at the moment.Currently,it’s nearly all theory(Q24),so it’s a bit heavy-going.

Martina:I guess you need to start with that so that you can get a grasp of the concepts and learn a few facts before you start putting it into practice.It must be a lot different to the course that I’m taking.

George:Yes–but in a few weeks we’ll be having a lot more practical experience.fact,I’ve got a great assignment this term working on jet engines(Q25)which means I’ll be going on a few field trips to a nearby airport.

Martina:Oh–that’s great,It sounds like you’re going to be very busy,

George:Yes not sure how I’m going to cope with the work,We have a lot of lectures–and that’s fine.The lecturers are very knowledgeable and I learn a lot from them.But we also have a lot of seminars(Q26)and I find with so many people expressing their views it can get quite frustrating.It would be better if we didn’t have so many of those.

Martina:Yes–it’s the same for me.Um–how are the students at your place?

George:Well I haven’t really met anyone yet.They all seem a bit quiet.

Martina:Perhaps they’re working hard–they don’t appear to be very studious here,but they are very friendly.I must say I’ve been doing a lot of sitting around and chatting(Q27)over the last week or so.

George:Well,that’s good,The only person I’ve spoken to really is my tutor.He’s very approachable and seems to understand how difficult it can be starting university.

Martina:It’s good to have someone you can talk to.And he may help you meet other students.

George:Actually that doesn’t bother me.I’m bound to get to know some people sooner or later.It’s more a question of finding out what I need to do,where to go and so on(Q28).I hope he can help me with that.

Martina:Oh I would have thought so.Well we certainly have a lot of work ahead of us.It seems like a long time,doesn’t it–studying for three years,

George:Yes it does–I’m sure it’ll go quickly.You know I’m really dreading the first assessment.

Martina:Yes–for the course I’m doing we have to hand our first one in at the end of next month(Q29).

George:Really–so have you got the topic yet?

Martina:No–but we’ll get it soon.I’m not sure how much we have to write yet–not too much,I hope!

George:I know what you mean.And it’s hard to study especially where I am now.

Martina:Oh–where are you living?

George:I’m living in a hall of residence,I thought that would be a good idea as there’d be a lot of people around but I’m finding it a bit noisy.I can see that I’m going to have problems when I really need to get down to some work.

Martina:So I guess you need to be somewhere your own then?

George:Yes–well I do like to have some people around me,so I’d prefer to live with a family(Q30)somewhere in a house(Q30)not too far from the university.

Martina:Well good luck with that.

George:Yes thanks–and good luck to you as well.I have to dash now.I’ve another lecture in ten minutes.Bye for now,

Martina:Bye.
