What TWO advantages does the speaker say Rexford University has for the students he is speaking to? A higher than average results in examinations B good transport links with central London C near London Airport D special government funding E good links with local industry MAN: As I said earlier, there is I think at Rexford an excellent combination of physical and geographical advantages - as well as having a rural setting and still being close to central London, something that will certainly be of interest to you is that Rexford is just 35 minutes from London Airport. At Rexford we have a strong research capability. One further point - and I know from talking to you individually that a number of you may be 整理范本 . looking for some experience in industry after the course - is that all our science and engineering research departments have unusually close relationships with industry in the area. Anyway that's enough sales talk from me Write NO MORE THAN ONE WORD for each answer. ● When application is received, confirmation will be sent ● Application processing may be slowed down by - postal problems - delays in sending 13 ……references…… Right… Now if you do decide to make an application, what you do is send it directly to me in my department. I will then immediately send confirmation and the application process begins. Er… I'd like to say at this point that you shouldn't worry if this process doesn't work all that quickly I mean occasionally there are postal problems, but most often the hold-up is caused by references - the people you give as referees, shall we say, take their time to reply. ● University tries to put international applicants in touch with a student from the same 14 ……country…… who can give information and advice on - academic atmosphere - leisure facilities - English 15 ……weather…… and food - what to pack One of the ways we've devised to help you decide about applying as well as later when you've been accepted… hopefully… is to put you in contact with, if possible, a student from your own country who is at present studying with us. What you can do is phone them up - we will, of course, liaise between you - and discuss your concerns with them. That way you can get an objective opinion of what you can expect if you come to live and study at Rexford - not only the academic atmosphere but important details like what the leisure facilities are like and whether the English weather and food are really as awful as everybody says! Questions 16-20 Choose the correct letter, A, B or C. 16、The speaker says international students at UK universities will be A offered accommodation with local families. B given special help by their lecturers. C expected to work independently. ? Now to move on to the other concerns you expressed earlier. At a UK university - as I'm sure you know - you will be in an environment where independent learning is the norm, which takes most students a while to adjust to, and at a time when you will be separated from your normal surroundings and, in most cases, your family. 17、What does the speaker say about university accommodation on campus? A Most places are given to undergraduates. B No places are available for postgraduates with families. C A limited number of places are available for new postgraduates. ? One or two of you touched on the subject of accommodation earlier. So I'll just add a few points: it is the University's policy to give priority in the allocation of residence places to three categories, and those are: visiting students, exchange students and new postgraduate students. However, demand exceeds supply, so there is still a need to put your name down 整理范本 . early for campus accommodation, particularly if your family is accompanying you. 18、Students wishing to live off-campus should apply A several months in advance. B two or three weeks in advance. C at the beginning of term. ? MAN: If you're planning to live off-campus, you've got to sort things out even earlier. As with everything in short supply, the good accommodation gets snapped up months before the beginning of term - in other words if you're starting in October you need to be thinking about it in June or at the very latest July. So you do need to think very carefully about what you need, how much you can afford to pay, well in advance. 19、The university accommodation officer will A send a list of agents for students to contact. B contact accommodation agencies for students. C ensure that students have suitable accommodation. ? What you can't do is leave it until a few days before the start of term. The agencies in town are pretty good - it's just a matter of contacting them in good time. Of course, we have a full-time accommodation officer available to help all students. She'll get in touch with you when you're accepted - she's got plenty of contacts in the town and will deal with the agencies on your behalf. 20、With regard to their English, the speaker advises the students to A tell their lecturers if they have problems understanding. B have private English lessons when they arrive. C practise their spoken English before they arrive. ? So anything you can do to improve your spoken English - even beyond the pretty high levels most of you have already reached - will help make your stay with us that bit more fun for you. Some extra practice before you arrive is worth more than.., for example private lessons afterwards, when you won't really have time. Oh… and one last thing before I invite further questions: it's very important that you… 新生入学类 ? orientation ? food: cafeteria, special diet, dietary problem, food stand ? study: library resources, online service, teaching building, attendance policies ? facilities, parking lot, gym, dormitory, let, rent, convenient store, laundry ? pre-term course ? hospital , school clinic, medical insurance ? student associations, recreation, entertainment ? police station 5.3.3 Feedback Form Course: Communication in Business Course code: CB 162 Dates: From 21 ………… to 22 ………… Please give your comments on the following aspects of the course: 整理范本 . 21. May 5th 22. July 16th ANNIE: Mmm, that's it, OK and dates, when did we start? I remember, my birthday's on May 4th and it was the day after, it must have been May 5th. BEN: Gosh, doesn't seem that long ago, does it? ANNIE: No, and we finish at the end of this week, on Friday, so that's July 15th? BEN: Er 16th, Monday was the 12th. Good Points Suggestions for Improvement ● 23 ………… ● too much work in Course organisation ● useful to have 25 ………… 24 ………… of the course-could be at beginning of course more evenly balanced 23. clear 24. the outline 25. second half Right, that was the easy bit, now let's have a look - “Please give your comments on the following aspects of the course”, OK, what's the first one? Oh, course organisation. What do you think? NNIE: Er, clear? It was, wasn't it? BEN: Yes, I think the organisation was clear. OK, anything else for course organisation? ANNIE: It was a good thing he gave us the course outline at the beginning, in the first session, that was useful, so I'll put that down, shall I? Now, going on to suggestion for improvement, one thing that wasn't so good, I think we could have done a bit more work at the beginning, I mean at the beginning it seemed dead easy. BEN: Yeah. ANNIE: I thought it was going to be really easy and then all of a sudden in the second half of the course we got a whole load of work, reading to do and essays and things. BEN: Yes, it'd be better if it was more even. ● good 26 ………… Course delivery and ● good 28 ………… Materials equipment 26.standard of teaching 27. groups discussion 28. handouts 整理范本 ● some 27 ………… sessions went on too long ● not enough copies of key texts available ● need more computers . OK, now course delivery, does that mean teaching? ANNIE: Yeah, I suppose so. Well, what I thought was really good on this course was the standard of teaching. Actually - I mean some of the teachers were better than others - but the standard generally was fine. Much better than other courses I've been on. BEN: Yeah, I agree. Let's put that then. What about suggestions for improvement? ANNIE: I… I didn't think it was all that wonderful when we had great long group discussion sessions that went on for hours and hours. I don't mean we shouldn't have group discussions, just that they shouldn't go on too long. Q27 ANNIE: Now, on to materials and equipment. BEN: Oh, now what was good about some sessions was the handouts. Testing and evaluation ● quick feedback ● too much 29 ………… from oral presentations ● can we know criteria for ● marking criteria marking final exams? for oral presentations known in advance ● excellent 30 ………… Other comments 29. written work 30. student support BEN: Yes, but at least we've done the oral presentation - I thought that was good, the way I got my feedback really quickly. ANNIE: Yes, it was. And I liked the way we knew what we'd be evaluated on, we knew the criteria, so we knew we had to think about clarity, organisation, and so on. BEN: Yeah, but I'm not so sure about the written work. One thing I think is that there's just too much, it's really stressful. ANNIE: No, for the final exams. What are they looking for - what are the criteria? What makes a pass or a fail? BEN: Yeah, I never thought of that. It'd be really useful. ANNIE: OK, any other comments? BEN: I thought student support was excellent. 5.3.4 Questions 31-35 Complete the sentences below. Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer. HOUSEHOLD WASTE RECYCLING 31、By 2008, carbon dioxide emissions need to be ……12.5%…… lower than in 1990. 32、Recycling saves energy and reduces emissions from landfill sites and …incineration plants …… ? The agreed targets for the UK mean that by 2008 we must reduce our carbon dioxide emissions by 12.5%, compared with 1990. And recycling can help to achieve that goal, in two main ways: the production of recycled glass and paper uses much less energy than producing 整理范本
