聽力原文： Lecturer: Part of the role of university education is to prepare students for their professional life and career. Part of this preparation is to introduce and train students in life long learning--preparing them to approach their career as a continuous learning experience, rather than assuming that the end of their university education represents an end goal beyond which there is no need for further learning. Therefore students are encouraged to develop as independent learners. An independent learner is one who takes responsibility for his or her own learning and is not always dependent on teacher being available to guide and correct. Such a student sets their own learning goals, makes their own decisions as to when and how to study for these goals, and also evaluates their own progress and develops further goals. This is not always easy for students, particularly those whose secondary education has been very teacher focussed, with teaching conducted mainly in lecture format and with little opportunity for the students to take any control of the learning process. At university, while much teaching is conducted via lectures, students are expected to become increasingly independent in their learning. Departments approach this issue in a number of ways. For example, they might provide personal mentors. This could be a student or a member of staff who is available to discuss problems that the student might have and who will support the student in the process of becoming an independent learner. The second one requires the student to' make certain choices about their course, either in the elements they choose to learn or in the way in which they choose to learn them. Thirdly, there is the provision of learning opportunities outside the confines of the campus, including study trips and student exchanges.

In the English Language Centre, we try to help the development of learner independence. This English Language Centre is a self-access one. A self-access centre is a place where learners come voluntarily to improve the subject that they are studying. In the case of the English Language Centre we focus on English language. In a self-access centre it is the student who decides what to study, when to study, how long to study, what materials to use, how to use the materials, and how to assess effectiveness. The learner is not, however, left totally alone. Learners are encouraged to come to the centre in groups, so that they can help each other in the learning process and there is also always an English teacher available to answer any questions that students might have, to discuss their progress, and to help the learner assess their work.

Let's take an example. Mary and her friend Jim have decided they need to improve their report writing skills. They decide to go to the ELC twice in the next week, for two hours each time, from five o'clock to seven o'clock. The first thing they do is to talk to the English teacher there, to help them identify what particular elements of writing a report they find especially difficult. Having done this, they identify suitable books, videos, or computer programs from the index, With help from the teacher if needed. Looking at the materials, they decide which to use first, and how to best to use it. Working through the materials, they discuss problems with each other, compare notes and evaluate each other's work and progress. This process of working together is important, as the students are able to support each other in the learning process. Of course, sometimes they need more help and so they ask the English teacher at the centre. When they have finished their studies, they review what they have studied, with help from their notes, and evaluate the extent to which they have, or have not, achieved their initial aim. In the light of this, they will decide to either do more work on the same topic, or move to another topic, either related to this one or something

聽力原文：A: Hello. How may I help you?

S: Hello. My name is Martina Bila. I made an appointment to see you at 10 o'clock. I'm a little early. Is that OK?

A: No problem. We're not very busy at the moment. You said on the phone that you weren't happy with your accommodation and were thinking of changing.

S: That's right.

A: May I ask what the problem is exactly?

S: To be honest, there's more than one problem. The main problem is that the accommodation is further than I imagined from the university.

A: I see. And the other problem or problems?

S: The other problem is that the landlady is quite a heavy smoker. I'm a non-smoker, and I'm afraid that I find it quite unpleasant.

A: I'm sorry about that. Weren't you given the option of accommodation With smokers or non-smokers?

S: I'm afraid that's really my fault. I don't mind light smokers, but I didn't get my accommodation organised very much in advance, so most of the accommodation had gone by the time I applied. However, a friend told me that there is sometimes accommodation ... er ... you know ... er ... accommodation becomes available mid-term because some people leave the university or change their place ... er ... the place where they live, so I thought maybe ...

A: I see. Yes, it is important to arrange accommodation well in advance, though it isn't always possible. However, your friend was correct. We do get some accommodation available mid-term. Just give me a minute to find your details on the computer....

S: Yes, of course.

A: Now, your current address is 43 Parkway Drive, isn't it?

S: Yes.

A: Yes, that's a fair way away. The bus connection isn't too good either, is it? I think that it would be better to focus on that as the reason for moving, rather than the smoking issue. However, I will change the information in the computer to say that this accommodation is only suitable for smokers or people who don't mind heavy smokers. That way we can avoid similar problems in the lucre.

S: That sounds like a good idea.

A: Now, the good news is that there is plenty of accommodation available nearer the university. The bad news is that it is more expensive.

S: That's OK. I expected that. Is there any catered or self-catering university accommodation available? That would be ideal.

A: I thought you might be interested in that. The day after you phoned, a place became available. It's catered, so it's the most expensive type of accommodation, but it's yours if you want it.

S: There's no self-catering accommodation available?

A: Not at the moment. Something could become available at any time, but, then again, you might have to wait weeks.

S: I understand. Can I just check the cost?

A: It's ￡37.50 per week. You also have to pay ￡23.15 during the Christmas and Easter holidays, regardless of whether you are there or not. That sum doesn't include meals during those periods.

S: But summer holidays are not included?

A: That's right. Students are permitted to stay in university accommodation during holidays but they usually have to move to a different flat.

S: I see. And do I pay monthly? A: Yes, but don't worry if you're a few days late. It happens quite often and we don't mind too much.

S: Can I see a picture of the accommodation? A: Sure .... It looks like this. You can see that there is a single bedroom for each student and a common living room and bathroom. There are no cooking facilities, but many students buy a microwave.

S: Can you tell me anything about the people I'd be living with?

A: There are two girls there. One is British and one is Indian. They are studying law and marketing respectively. They're the same age as you, 20. And they're not smokers!

S: That sounds perfect. If I don't give my landlady a month's notice, she gets to keep the deposit, doesn't she?

A: That's normally stated in the rental agreement, yes. I'd like to be able to keep this university accommodation available, but I'm a

l your things from Canada arrived yet? I thought I saw a removals van outside your house yesterday afternoon.

MRS SUTTON: Yes. They came yesterday. We spent all day yesterday arranging them. It's beginning to feel a bit more like home now.

MRS SMITH: That's good. Look, come in and sit down. Are you alright? You look a bit worried.

MRS SUTTON: Well, I am a bit. I'm sorry to bother you so early, Mrs Smith, but I

wonder if you could help me. Could you tell me how I can get hold of a

doctor? Our daughter, Anna, isn't very well this morning and I may have Q11

to call somebody out. She keeps being sick and I am beginning to get a

bit worried. I just don't know how the health system works here in

England. All I know is that it's very different from ours back in Canada.

MRS SMITH: Well, I don't know really where to start. Let me think. Well, the first thing

you have to do is find a family doctor sometimes we call them general

practitioners as well - and register with him or her. If you live here, you've

got to be on a doctor's list. If you're not, things can be a bit difficult.

Nobody will come out to you if you're not registered. Anyway, they work Q12

in things called practices. Sort of small groups of family doctors all

working together in the same building. Now what you've got to do this

morning is register with one of them.

There are two practices near here, so we're quite well off for doctors in

this part of Manchester. There's the Dean End Health Centre about ten

minutes' walk away and there's another practice in South Hay. That's

about five minutes away going towards the town centre. We're registered

at the Dean End one, but they're both OK. There are about six doctors in Q13

our practice and four in the other. So ours is quite big in comparison. Q14

And the building and everything's a bit more modern. South Hay is a bit

old-fashioned but the doctors are OK. Their only problem is that they Q15

don't have a proper appointment system. Sometimes you have to wait for

ages there to see someone.

Anyway, you go to the receptionist in whichever health centre and ask

her to register you with a doctor there. You have to fill in a form, but it

doesn't take long. Ours is called Dr Jones and we've been going to him for

years - ever since we moved here fifteen years ago. I wouldn't say he's

brilliant but I suppose he's alright really. We're used to h
