1.租房场景
首先辨别是租房还是买房。for lease 与for sale
房子的类型有:
flat, apartment, dormitory(dorm), student hotel,youth hostel
一般房子有的家电或设施有:
bedroom, kitchen, stove, fridge, microwave oven, washing machine,

房子位置:.
road(rd.), street(st.), lane,
门厅的叫法:
hall, lobby, porch
租房的规律为:
离市中心越近,房价越高,位置稍偏,价钱会比较有吸引力;但便宜的房子一般有不理想的地方:
not near the center, not near the railway station, fall from the
bus stop, near the airport, noisy, shared kitchen, insects,
a stranger in the next bed, have no privacy, have to prepare
some repellant ,insects haunting.
另外电话询问看房子时:
is it available now? when will it be available?.
is there a telephone? how far is it from…….? is it furnished?
what is the rental price? how is it cooled /heated?
furnished:意为配备家具。
2.课外研究场景
主要是在课外研究一些小的项目,小的调查研究,包括对学校里各个地方,食品(咖啡,小吃)等的价格的比较,这些看似不屑一顾的东西,个人认为,这也是与文化背景有关系的,外国人注重人的实践能力,从小培训,听说他们中学生就开始写长篇的文章,看中那个小男孩本,研究毛毛虫,就可看出了:这部分主要注意听力,特别关注的是人名,并注意先判断男女。
有关咖啡的一些类型:
instant coffee, real, espresso(功夫咖啡,蒸馏咖啡), cappuccino,
brewed coffee,
另外一些关于吃的:
fish and chips, value for money, greasy……………
3.图书馆场景

check out, reserve books, return in time, interlibrary service,
can’t /mustn’t lend it to others.
reserve books:指某一段时间比较抢手,热门的书目,资料的租借时间缩短。如果很多同学想使用同一本参考书,图书馆就会reserve this book.
考点:作品名称,哪年出版,作者姓名,student card, library card,借出费用,几时到期,欠款多少等。

包括会议,节日,组织旅游等。主要抓四类:when, where, what, why convention(会议)
开场白经常由会议的president或者organizer进行自我介绍,然后介绍会议内容,还要介绍会议的会期多长,经常考的考点---第几次要避免经典陷井,即听力原文出现的并不是所需要的答案。

a: 2
原:this is my second year on campus?
q:how many years have you been studying at this college?
