问题 You will now listen to part of a conversation. You will then be asked a question about it. After you hear the question, give yourself 20 seconds to prepare your response. Then record yourself speaking for 60 seconds.
Listen to Track 82.

Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing. Then state which of the two solutions from the conversation you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation.
Narrator
Now listen to a conversation between two students talking about a problem at the dormitory.
Male student
Carrie, how come I always see you eating in the cafeteria lately? Didn’t you tell me you had a kitchen in your dorm and you were gonna start to ...
Female student
Uh-huh ... and I was gonna start cooking my own meals there.
Male student
So you changed your mind?
Female student
It’s not that. The kitchen’s just always a mess. It’s filthy—dirty dishes everywhere, the trash is overflowing. Nobody ever cleans up so it’s gotten really disgusting.
Male student
We had that problem in my dorm last year. We ended up making a schedule. Maybe you should try something like that.
Female student
What do you mean a schedule?
Male student
Well, people had to sign up to use the kitchen. Then whoever used it that day was responsible for cleaning it up.
Female student
So you mean if the kitchen’s a mess on Tuesday, you just check and see who used it on Monday? Track ’em down and make ’em clean up the mess?
Male student
Uh-huh. It kinda works ... as long as people sign up like they’re supposed to.
Female student
Well, I was wondering if we could just pay to have someone clean the place, maybe once a week or something. If everybody chipped in a few dollars, we could hire someone to clean the whole kitchen area.
Male student
Wow. That’d be great if you could find someone. You mean like a student or something?
Female student
Yeah. As long as it’s not too expensive.
Male student
You should check out the bulletin board in the student center. I’ve seen notes from students looking for different jobs—even cleaning jobs.
Female student
Good idea. And I’ll see what the other people in my dorm wanna do.
Male student
Well, good luck. I hope it works out.
Narrator
Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing. Then state which of the two solutions from the conversation you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation.
选项
答案     To respond to this particular question you should briefly describe the problem. In this case the problem is that the woman does not want to cook her own meals because the kitchen in the dorm is always a mess.
    Next, you need to choose one of the two solutions and explain why you think that solution is best. Note that you are not required to talk about both solutions. The two solutions in this conversation are: 1)put up a schedule so people can sign up to use the kitchen. Anyone who uses the kitchen must clean up, or 2)hire someone to clean the kitchen once a week. It does not matter which of the two proposed solutions you choose, since there is no "right" solution or "wrong" solution. You should choose the solution that you think is best and support your choice with reasons why you think it is best. The reasons you give can include information provided by the speakers as well as your own experiences.
    For example, if you believe the first solution is preferable, you could say that it should be the students’ responsibility to clean the kitchen. Cleaning the kitchen is important because it could lead to good habits, and eventually these students will be responsible for their own kitchens. Another way to discuss this is to talk about the disadvantage of the other solution. In this case you might say that hiring somebody else is not a good idea because it costs money, and students do not usually have a lot of money. They would be better off using this money to buy food for themselves.
    If you believe the second solution is preferable, you might say that students don’t really have enough time to clean. They are already very busy with their schoolwork, so cleaning is something that they should get somebody else to do. Also, somebody else might do a better job since many students don’t have a lot of experience cleaning.
    These are just examples of possible responses; remember, this type of question can be answered in many different ways.
    Your response should be intelligible, should demonstrate effective use of grammar and vocabulary, and should be well developed and coherent.
