听力原文：W: Roger, any problems in your Korean study？

M: The biggest problem with me is the Korean vocabulary. It really makes me frustrated．The pronunciation and usage put me into great confusion as l keep forgetting them.

W: I guess first of all，you can narrow down the vocabulary sphere. I mean, try to learn “core” vocabulary，the words with high frequencies of occurrence.

M: That sounds quite reasonable. Do you think I can find in bookstores a book or dictionary where such kinds of words are listed？

W: Yes, definitely. Another thing, the first several occurrences of strange words ale very important words are remembered best if they are learnt quickly with a few presentations. You may not have much trouble in remembering swear words，may you？

M: No. They're very impressive and quite memorable. I don't even need to practice them.

W: That's it! For other words lat don't have such a strong effect, you have to make yourself highly attentive and sensitive. If not，later practice and repetition don't seem to work so well.

M: I see.

W: The last thing I'll say is that if you want to remember something for periods long than a year or two, you need to space the presentations over quite long intervals of days, say 30 days A more frequent interval doesn't promise you longer remembrance.

M: Really？ I have thought every word should be practiced as often as possible within a short time span.

W: No. How the word is practiced is much more important than how often it is practiced.

M: You really do me a great favor, Teresa.

(23)

A．He keeps forgetting the important things he has to do.

B．He has great difficulty remembering Korean words.

C．He can't find the most helpful Korean dictionary.

D．His pronunciation of Korean words confuses others.

听力原文：M: Hello, professor Johnson.

W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work on today？

M: Well, the problem is that this writing assignment isn't coming out right. What I thought I was writing on was to talk about what a particular sport means to me when I participate in.

W: What sport did you choose？

M: I decided to write about cross-country skiing.

W: What are you going to say about skiing？

M: That's the problem. I thought I would write about how peaceful it is to be out in the country.

W: So why is that a problem？

M: I'd like to start describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods. I keep mentioning how much effort it takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn't as easy as some people think. It takes a lot of energy, but that's not part of my paper, so I guess I should leave it out. But now I don't know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you have to work for it. It all fits together. It's not like just sitting down somewhere and watching the clouds roll by. That's different.

W: Then you'll have to include that in your point. The peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why leave that out？ Part of your point you knew beforehand, but part you discovered as you wrote. That's common, right？

M: Yeah, I guess so.

Questions:

19. What is the topic of the man's writing assignment？

20. What problem does the man have while working on his paper？

21. What does the woman say is common in writing papers？

(20)

A．Beautiful scenery in the countryside.

B．Dangers of cross-country skiing.

C．Pain and pleasure in sports.

D．A sport he participates in.
