Okay, okay, let’s begin. Hello, everyone. My name’s Susan Hudson and I’ll be your teacher for this class, Intercultural Communication.

Uh, to begin with, please take a look at the syllabus in front of you. As you all should know by now, this class meets on Tuesdays from 3:15 to 4:50. We will be meeting in this room for the first half of the course, but we will be using the research lab every other week on Thursday in Room 405 during the last two months of the class.

Uh, this is the text for the class, Beyond Language. Unfortunately, the books haven’t come in yet, but I was told that you should be able to purchase them at the bookstore the day after tomorrow. Again, as you see on your course outline, grading is determined by your performance on a midterm and final test, periodic quizzes, uh, a research project, and classroom participation.

My office hours are from 1:00 to 2:00 on Wednesdays, and you can set up an appointment to meet with me at other times as well.

Task 2

【答案】

1) According to the syllabus, the book he is looking for is in the library, but he couldn’t find it.

2) That means the student cannot find the book on the shelves in its usual place. She/He needs to go to a special room called the reserve room.

3) The professor wants everyone in the class to read the chapter. If one student removes the book from the library, it is likely that none of the other students will have the opportunity to read it. So, your professor has insured that all students have the opportunity to read it by placing it on reserve.

【原文】

Librarian: Can I help you?

Student: Yes. I am a bit confused. My sociology class is supposed to read a chapter in a book called Sociology and the Modern Age. According to the syllabus, the book is in the

library, but I haven’t been able to find it.

Librarian: Do you have your syllabus with you? May I see it?

Student: Yes, uh...I put it in the front of my sociology notebook. Yes, here it is.

Librarian: Let me see. Oh yes. Your professor has placed this book on reserve. That means you

cannot find it on the shelves in its usual place. You need to go to a special room called

the reserve room. It’s down the hall and to the right.

Student: I’m sorry —I still don’t understand what you mean by on reserve.

Librarian: You see, your professor wants everyone in the class to read the chapter. If one student removes the book from the library, it is likely that none of the other students will have

the opportunity to read it. So, your professor has insured that all students have the

opportunity to read it by placing it on reserve.

Student: So, will I be able to find this book?

Librarian: Yes, when a book is on reserve, a student can go to the reserve room and ask the reserve librarian for the book. The student can have the book for a few hours, and he or she

MUST read it in the library during that time. That way, the book stays in the library,

and all students have a chance to read it.

Student: OK. Thank you. I understand now.

Librarian: Will there be anything else?

Student: No! I am on my way to the reserve room. Thanks again!

Task 3

Task 4

【答案】

1) Because now they have someone from the international center coming to speak to the students on extracurricular activities.

2) They want to show students around the university, including the union building, the library and the student services building.

1) up to their ears, hard pressed

2) jot, grab, off

3) finding a needle in a haystack

4) bottom line, running

【原文】

Randall: Hi Faith. Do you have a minute?

Faith: Sure. What’s up?

Randall: Well, I just wanted to go over the schedule for Wednesday’s orientation meeting to make sure everything is ready.

Faith: Okay. Here’s a copy of the tentative schedule. [Okay.] Now, the registration starts at 8:30 and goes until 9:15. [All right.] Then, the orientation meeting will commence at 9:30. Randall: Okay. Now, we had planned originally for the meeting to go until 10:30, but now we have someone from the international center coming to speak to the students on extracurricular activities, so how about ending the meeting around 11?

Faith: Fine. And, uh, then students will take the placement tests from 11:15 until noon [OK.], followed by 20-minute break before lunch. [OK.] And, immediately after lunch, we have reserved a campus shuttle to give students a 45-minute tour starting at 1:30. [Oh. OK.] We want to show students around the university, including the union building, the library, and the student services building.

Randall: Great. Now, how about the oral interviews?

Faith: Well, we’re planning to start them at 2:15.

Randall: Uh, well, teachers are going to be up to their ears in preparations, and th ey’ll be hard pressed to start then.

Faith: Ok, let’s get things rolling around 2:45.

Randall: Ok, here, let me jot that down. Uh, could you grab a pen off my desk?

Faith: Right. Finding anything on your desk is like finding a needle in a haystack. [Oh, it’s not that bad.] Here, use mine.

Randall: OK. And we’ll need 150 copies of this program guide by then.

Faith: Hey. That’s a tall order on such short notice! How about lending me a hand to put things together [OK.] by this afternoon so we don’t have to wor ry about them?

Randall: OK. And I think the manager has given the green light to go ahead and use the more expensive paper and binding for the guides this time.

Faith: OK. So the interviews will go from 2:45 until, let’s say, 4:30. [OK.] I hope we can wrap things up by 5.

Randall: Great. I think the bottom line is to keep things running smoothly throughout the day.

Faith: I agree. I’ll pass this schedule by the director for a final look.

Task 6

【答案】

1) F, 2) T, 3) F

1) Most universities will not accept students without this test. It is also used to decide how much financial aid should be given to each student.

2) They must score between 1,430 and 1600.

3) American universities also look at a student’s subject grades, what they do outside of school, and their teachers’ recommendations.

4) The SAT II is the one-hour exam that can be taken in any subject, for example chemistry or French.

【原文】

Every year, high school juniors and seniors from across the US take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT 1).

The SAT 1 is a three-hour exam that tests students’ math and verbal skills. Most universities will not accept students without this test. It is also used to help decide how much financial aid should be given to each student.

Scores range from 200 to 800 for each part. There is a total of 1,600 points. The test is held every year from October to June. But seniors must take it before December in order to include their scores in their university applications. The average total score for an American high school student is around 1,000.

A poor SAT score can prevent a student from going to a good university. Students who want to go to one of America’s best universities, such as Harvard or Yale, must score between 1,430 and 1,600.

The test can be taken over and over again, but all the scores will appear on the students’ records. However, unlike Chinese universities, the score is not the only thing needed. American universities also look at a student’s subject grades, what they do outside of school, and their teachers’ recommendations.

In addition to the SAT 1, some universities require high school students to take at least three SAT IIs. These one-hour exams can be taken in any subject, for example chemistry or French.

Task 7

【答案】

1) a, 2) c, 3) d, 4)c

1) Many students attend special preparation schools besides their regular classes, in order to pass the exam for the best universities such as the National University of Tokyo.

2) These extra schools can last for one to two years between high school and university.

【原文】

Japanese students need 12 years of study before entering universities.

They choose the places they want to go and apply before January of their final year. The university entrance exam is a standard nationwide test held every year in January. It provides tests

for 31 subjects in six subject areas: Japanese language, geography and history, civics, math, science and a foreign language. All national and public universities, as well as some private ones make use of this exam. But many places also have their own tests in February or later, before the new school year starts in April.

In order to pass the exam for the best universities such as the National University of Tokyo, many students attend special preparation schools on top of their regular classes. These extra schools can last for one to two years between high school and university.

Although every student has the chance of going to a Japanese university, only 50 percent of high school seniors actually choose further study.

Task 8
