W: Hi, are you interested in doing a foundation course?
M: Well, I’m not sure actually.
W: That’s not unusual. Are you thinking about further study, or planning to go straight into a job?
M: I was always thinking I’d go to university, but the fees are so high now, [6]I was looking for other options, something where I can be sure I’d get a job afterwards.
W: Yes, the money is a real problem now, isn’t it?
M: Yeah, that and the fact that I’m really not sure whether university courses really prepare you for any particular job. They’re too academic, not really very practical.
W: Well, it sounds as if one of our foundation courses might be the right thing for you. The fees are lower than university fees, and because the courses aren’t full time, you can work for two or three days a week, so you can earn and study at the same time. The other good thing is that you get real experience in the workplace where you can develop your employability skills. [7]The teaching is also a lot more personal, with smaller class sizes, which means you get more attention.
M: So, do you get the same qualifications that you would at university?
W: [8]You’d be working towards a foundation degree, not an honours degree like you would at a university, but you can progress onto an honours course if you successfully complete the foundation course.
M: I was thinking of going into business or management Do you do courses in that?
W: Well, not as such, but we do offer a course in managing public services which might be of interest to you, especially as the public sector is one of the country’s biggest employers and it’s always looking for talented individuals. A lot of the skills you need for those departments are the same as those you’d need in business, so you can decide at a late date whether you want to work in a public or a private company.
M: Yeah? What does the course involve?
W: Well, there are a number of different modules you can take. The ones which might be of interest to you are, er..., this one—"Organisational Behaviour".
M: What’s that about?
W: You’ll learn things like the theoretical and practical nature of organisations, such as how they are set up and structured. There’s another module called [9]"Managing People" which teaches some principles and management techniques for leading groups of people.
M: This one looks interesting: "Applied Psychology for the Public Services."
W: Yes, it is. It looks at how you can apply psychological factors like stress and memory to work in the public sector.
M: [10]It looks like a really practical course. Can I take one of these information packs?
W: Sure, go ahead. Come back for more details any time!
6. What kinds of courses are the man looking for?
7. Which’s the merit of foundation courses according to the woman?
8. What degree can the man get if he completes the foundation courses?
9. What’s the course module "Managing People" about?
10. What will the man most probably do next?

选项 A、Theoretical and practical nature of organisations.
B、How organisations are set up and structured.
C、Principles and management techniques in leadership.
D、How to apply psychological factors to public services.

答案 C

解析 ①选项以知识方法相关的名词加上限定类别或范围组成,猜测问题可能与学习的范围或内容相关,听音时要注意课程内容细节。②问题问“Managing People”这一课程模块关于什么。女士说这门课包括许多模块(module),其中“Managing people”会教授领导团队(leading groups of people)的原则和方法,C的leader-ship即是领导力的意思,故为正确答案。③对话中说“组织行为”模块学习的是组织的理论性和实用性性质。比如说如何建立和构造组织,故A和B项属于“组织行为学”的内容,排除掉。对话中女士提到如何在公共服务中应用心理因素,如压力(stress)和记忆(memory),这些心理因素是“公共服务中的应用心理学”的学习内容,所以D项也是错误的。
