Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
Now,
0:01
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
turn to Section 3.
0:03
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
Section 3.
0:05
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
You will hear a conversation between two students
0:09
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
in the education department who are discussing their first assignment.
0:13
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
First,
0:15
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
you have some time to look at questions 21 to 28.
0:19
S…
Speaker 5 (t7_s3)
Listen
0:40
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
carefully and answer questions 21 to 28.
0:44
S…
Speaker 5 (t7_s3)
Hey,
0:47
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Ted.
0:47
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
What are we going to do about this assignment?
0:50
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Well, Cleo,
0:51
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I think it's pretty straightforward.
0:53
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Oh?
0:54
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yeah.
0:55
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
The topic is,
0:56
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
why study abroad?
0:58
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I suggest we do a survey of international students,
1:02
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
collate the responses,
1:04
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
make a graph and exhibit our findings in the form of a
1:08
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
poster.
1:08
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Wow,
1:09
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
you have given this some thought,
1:11
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
haven't you?
1:12
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Of course.
1:13
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
This is only the first assignment.
1:15
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
There will be a lot more to come,
1:18
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
so let's get this one out of the way quickly.
1:20
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Well,
1:21
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
how do we do the survey?
1:24
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I think we need to find a good selection of foreign students.
1:28
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
So,
1:29
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
how about we go over to the English language school at
1:34
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
lunchtime and talk to some of the students there?
1:37
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
That's not a bad idea.
1:38
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
But we shouldn't limit ourselves to that department.
1:42
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Why not?
1:43
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Well,
1:44
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
think about it.
1:45
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
They'll all give the same reason,
1:47
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
to learn English.
1:49
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Of course,
1:50
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
you're right.
1:52
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Well,
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
one of us could cover the language school and the other could go
1:56
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
around the business school.
1:58
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yes.
1:59
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I know there are a lot of internationals there,
2:02
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
too.
2:02
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
But I think a random sample from foreign students on campus
2:07
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
might give us a better range of answers.
2:10
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Hmm.
2:11
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
What are we going to ask them?
2:13
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Why are you studying abroad?
2:15
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
An open question like that could mean
2:19
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
we get hundreds of different responses.
2:22
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
It would be better if we made up,
2:23
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
say, ten reasons and asked each respondent to
2:28
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
place them in order of importance.
2:29
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
You're right.
2:31
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
That would certainly make collation easier.
2:34
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Any ideas about what these ten reasons might be?
2:37
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Sure.
2:38
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I've got enough foreign friends to know quite a lot about
2:42
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
what motivates them.
2:44
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Okay.
2:44
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Number one is...
2:46
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I think that's obvious.
2:48
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
How about study abroad is the best way to learn a language?
2:52
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
And number two is obvious as well.
2:55
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
I know.
2:56
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Study abroad gives you the chance to travel.
2:59
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
What's third?
3:00
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
It's either culture or friendship.
3:03
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Okay, let's go for culture.
3:05
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Study abroad gives you firsthand experience of a
3:09
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
different culture.
3:10
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Not just that,
3:11
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
but it gives you new experiences as well.
3:14
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Not all of them are good,
3:16
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
but it's meeting those challenges and adapting to new situations and
3:20
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
solving problems and so on.
3:22
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Let's make that a separate reason.
3:24
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
How about study abroad,
3:27
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
um...
3:28
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
will compel you to develop new skills.
3:30
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Sounds good.
3:32
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Then study abroad promotes international friendship.
3:35
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
What are we up to now?
3:37
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Um,
3:38
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
wait, that was number five.
3:40
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Do you think learning about yourself is the same as developing
3:44
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
new skills?
3:45
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
No, I think it's quite different.
3:47
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Probably more closely related to culture.
3:51
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
You really mean embracing new concepts and perceptions,
3:54
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
don't you?
3:55
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yes,
3:56
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
and reconsidering one's own beliefs and values,
3:59
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
or at least seeing them through new eyes.
4:03
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
We could make the next one and call it something like,
4:06
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
study abroad provides the opportunity to learn about yourself.
4:10
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
We ought to throw in a few about study and work,
4:14
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
because I'm sure that rates highly with many foreign students.
4:18
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Of course.
4:19
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Study abroad gives you the opportunity to expand your academic,
4:23
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
um...
4:25
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Academic what?
4:27
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Let's simplify it.
4:28
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Make it the opportunity to study different subjects.
4:31
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yes,
4:32
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
good.
4:33
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
It can also enhance the value of your degree.
4:36
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
How's that?
4:37
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Well,
4:38
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
I think you can take courses you would never have had the opportunity to
4:42
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
take on your home campus,
4:44
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
and employers will know also that your language skills have
4:48
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
been given quite a boost.
4:49
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Isn't that the same as number seven?
4:52
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
No,
4:52
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
I think it's a separate issue.
4:54
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
All right,
4:55
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
keep it.
4:56
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Now, I think this next one is more important.
4:59
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Shall I change the order?
5:02
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
No,
5:03
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
no need.
5:04
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
The students are going to rank them according to their views.
5:08
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
So what is it?
5:09
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Study abroad enhances employment opportunities.
5:13
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Ugh,
5:14
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
why didn't I think of that?
5:15
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Anyway,
5:17
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
there's one even more obvious than that.
5:20
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Let me guess.
5:21
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Study abroad broadens your mind?
5:24
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Exactly.
5:25
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Okay.
5:26
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Now we have 10.
5:28
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Let's print off 100 questionnaires and go and
5:32
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
do the survey.
5:32
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
Before you hear the rest of the conversation,
5:37
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
you have some time to look at questions 29 to
5:41
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
30.
5:41
S…
Speaker 5 (t7_s3)
Now
6:02
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
listen and answer questions 29 to 30.
6:08
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Did you hear about the National Geographic Survey of American
6:12
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
students between the ages of 18 and 24?
6:15
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yes.
6:16
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
It sounds as if they could benefit from study abroad.
6:20
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Did you know that only 1 % of U .S.
6:24
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
students currently study abroad?
6:26
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Anyway,
6:27
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
back to that National Geographic Survey.
6:31
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
It was carried out internationally,
6:33
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
and it was Sweden that came out on top.
6:36
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
It's really amazing,
6:38
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
isn't it?
6:39
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
When given a map of the world,
6:41
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
only 13 % of American students were able to find
6:45
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Iraq.
6:45
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
And the same for Iran.
6:47
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
I know.
6:48
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
And not surprisingly,
6:50
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I suppose,
6:51
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
Afghanistan didn't fare much better.
6:54
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
83 % couldn't locate it on the map.
6:58
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
There must be something about that region.
7:00
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
76 % couldn't identify Saudi Arabia
7:04
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
either.
7:05
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
But Asia didn't come off much better.
7:08
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
Over half the students couldn't find Japan on the map.
7:12
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
But do you know what's really incredible?
7:15
S…
Speaker 3 (t7_s3)
Yes,
7:16
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
I do.
7:16
S…
Speaker 2 (t7_s3)
11 % of them couldn't even find their own country.
7:21
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
It's no wonder the USA scored near the bottom,
7:25
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
only two points above Mexico,
7:28
S…
Speaker 1 (t7_s3)
which was ranked last.
7:30
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
That is the end of Section 3.
7:34
S…
Speaker 4 (t7_s3)
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
