问题 When did Jenny arrive at the university? [br] Tom’s accommodation is a  ______ from the campus.
Jenny: Hi Tom! How are you? Have you been here long?
Tom: Hi Jenny! I’m fine. I arrived yesterday, on Sunday. How about you?
Jenny: I got here last week, on Wednesday. No, sorry--just a minute, what day is it today? Thursday, not Wednesday.
Tom: Why did you come so early? We don’t have to be here until tomorrow. Couldn’t wait to be free from your parents, I bet.
Jenny: Very funny! I know I came a bit earlier than most people, but I wanted to move my things into my flat and take a look around the campus and the town. So, did you decide to take English Literature in the end?
Tom: No, I changed my mind and decided on European History instead. At school, you said you were going to take geography, right?
Jenny: Yes although I was also considering geology.
Tom: Sounds the same to me!
Jenny: Well, I guess there are similarities, but they’re not quite the same. What kind of information have you been given about your courses?
Tom: Well, not much. I’ve got my timetable and a basic reading list.
Jenny: Yeah, me too. I’ve been given a list of books to start reading. I think there are 5 or 6 of them.
Tom: Yeah, I’ve got a similar list. They’re just books that provide the basics for the courses during the first year.
Jenny: So, what’s your timetable like? I get Wednesday and Friday afternoons off, but the rest of the days are fairly full.
Tom: Me too. Do your lectures and seminars start next week too?
Jenny: Yes. I think everyone’s do. This week is just orientation, isn’t it?
Tom: That’s what I gathered. My first class on Monday morning is ... wait for it ... oh, Modem British History--I’m looking forward to that! How about you?
Jenny: Erm ... Human Geography--also on Monday morning.
Tom: It says here that the title of the first lecture is "The Victorian Legacy" --sounds good! How about you?
Jenny: I’ve got "Global Population Distribution". Intriguing! ... Where are you living?
Tom: I got a place in the Halls of Residence at Wish Lane Hall.
Jenny: Wish? As in ’make a wish’.
Tom: Funny name, eh?
Jenny: I’m at Bridge Road Halls of Residence.
Tom: That’s very close to the university campus, isn’t it? My place is a bit further away.
Jenny: Can you walk or do you need to take a bus?
Tom: Erin... I can walk. but it takes about 30 minutes. There’s a bus. I guess I’ll walk if it’s not a bad day and take the bus if it’s raining.
Jenny: I’ll think of you when I am taking the five minute walk from my hall to the lecture theatre!
Tom: I’m sure you will! At least I’ve got somewhere to stay if I don’t want to walk home!
Jenny: Cheeky!
Tom: Is your hall near the main gate or the north gate?
Jenny: The north gate. Hey, I’m on my way to the shops. Coming?
Tom: Sure. What are you going to buy? Food?
Jenny: Well, I might pick up a few things, but I was really going to buy some notebooks for taking lecture notes seminar notes and some printer paper.
Tom: That’s a good idea. I need a few binders to put my notes in.
Jenny: That’s a good idea. I’ll get a couple too. Pencils? No, I’ve got a few.
Tom: Oh, some pens--I always seem to lose them! Well, you’ve been here the longest. Where do we go?
Jenny: There’s a shop here on campus, near the main gate. There’s a cafe next door, so we can stop there too, if you like.
Tom: Great idea--I could do with a coffee and a cake!
