Listening 2026-04 Test 6

==================== IELTS Listening Transcript ==================== PART 1 Speaker 0: You will hear a number of different recordings, and you will have to answer questions on what you hear. There will be time for you to read the instructions and questions, and you will have a chance to check your work. All the recordings will be played once only. The test is in four parts. Write all your answers in the listening question booklet. At the end of the test, you will be given ten minutes to transfer your answers to an answer sheet. Now turn to part one on page two of your question booklet. Part one. You will hear a teenager asking about joining a film club. First, you have some time to look at questions one to four. Now listen carefully and answer questions one to four. Speaker 1: Hi. Can I help you? Speaker 2: Yeah. I saw on the Internet that you have a film club here at the cinema, but there wasn't a lot about it. Can you tell me a bit more? Speaker 1: Yes. We're still setting up the web page. Sorry about that. We only started the club a few months ago. It's been very popular right from the beginning. We have regular film showings, and there are lots of other benefits. Speaker 2: How often does the club meet? Speaker 1: Every two weeks on Thursday nights. Speaker 2: Okay. And I'm 16. So could I join? Speaker 1: Sure. People of any age can join. Speaker 2: Right. So how much does it cost to join? Speaker 1: Well, it depends. The basic charge is £24 a season. But for people eligible for concessions, it's £21.50. Speaker 2: I'm a student. Speaker 1: You'd get the concession rate then. Speaker 2: That's good. Speaker 1: That entitles you to free entry to the club films and also to £2 off tickets for all other films on at the cinema. So you'd pay £4.50 instead of £6.50. Speaker 2: Great. Speaker 1: Okay. Now I don't know if this applies to you, but club members are also eligible for three hours complimentary parking when there's a film on. Speaker 2: Well, I don't drive, but my girlfriend does. So it might be useful. Speaker 1: Yes. Speaker 2: Okay. Well, I'd definitely like to join. Speaker 0: Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions five to 10. Now listen and answer questions five to 10. Speaker 2: Can you give me any information about the next few films you're showing? Speaker 1: I'm afraid we've run out of leaflets for this season. So I'll tell you about the next few films, and hopefully, we'll have all details on the Internet soon. So the next meeting's this Thursday, October 14, and that's a film called Pablo. Speaker 2: Ah, read the reviews of that. It's set in Argentina, isn't it? Speaker 1: Mhmm. Speaker 2: About a child who's run away from home? Speaker 1: That's right. It just came out recently. And the kid somehow gets on TV and he wins a dance competition or something. Speaker 2: A singing competition. Speaker 1: Yeah. I haven't seen it either, but it tells you on the posters. Speaker 2: Yes. It sounds really good. Well, I definitely want to see that. What's on after that? Speaker 1: On October 28, there's an American film called The Soldier. That's an old silent movie. But in this showing, we have someone who'll accompany it on the piano, just like they used to in the old cinemas, though it was sometimes an organ accompaniment in those days. Speaker 2: Must be a pretty old film then. When did they release the first talkies? 1926 or '27? Speaker 1: Yes. This was made in 1922, so well before. Though I think they had short feature films with sound by 1923, actually. Speaker 2: So what sort of film is it? Speaker 1: Well, it's billed as a comedy. Though you'd think it was a war film from the title. I don't know much about the plot. We don't have much information, though you could always look it up on the Internet. Speaker 2: Yeah. I'll do that. Then the next film after that? Speaker 1: So that'll be let's see. The November 11 is a film about animals, and it's just called Tiger. And that's a cartoon film, which makes it sound as if it's for children, but actually, it's aimed at adults, and it's really quite frightening in places. I saw it when it first came out. Speaker 2: What's it about? Speaker 1: It's got no humans in it at all. It's just about the effect of environmental changes millions of years ago on the animals who lived then. It's a really strange film. There's a talk afterwards given by the director, so that should be very popular. You'll need to book early for that, I should think. Speaker 2: Right. Well, thanks for all that. Now if you can give me the application form... Speaker 1: Sure. Speaker 0: That is the end of part one. You now have one minute to check your answers to part one. PART 2 Speaker 3: Part two. You will hear a member of staff called Mary Linden giving some information about their community centre. First, you have some time to look at questions 11 to 14. Now listen carefully and answer questions 11 to 14. Speaker 3: On behalf of our community centre, I'd like to welcome you all here today. My name is Mary Linden. As you can see here, this multipurpose hall is a great venue for various events, including banquets, seminars or dances. The center provides services for all ages. As the majority of you have already signed up for our dance workshops, I'll introduce relevant information first before we start the tour and get ourselves oriented. Okay. Now when participants check-in for their first dancing session, they will be given a class list printed with available seasonal classes ranging from Zumba to ballet as well as detailed descriptions and schedules. The dance studio will also give you a complimentary shoe bag to store your dance shoes. Every week will be a surprise in cardio movement. Our fitness professional will guide you through an upbeat, heart pumping, lively dance class. Therefore, it is highly advised to bring a face towel and a water bottle with you. As things get mixed up easily, you might also want to attach a name tag to your belongings. It will be sent to you by mail in advance. Now let us get a closer look at our dance workshops and its curriculum. There is a list of activities to participate during and after each session. You'll have the chance to make your own costume, but it won't be held until tomorrow. You can also practice dance with music whenever the studio is available. In the first afternoon and evening of your dance class, there will be an introduction to the development of dance for the past few decades. Then we'll warm up with an informal dance. I know you don't have much experience in dancing, but we'll get there soon. Rest assured, there won't be a dance test until the end of the course. Speaker 3: Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20. Now listen and answer questions 15 to 20. Speaker 3: Okay. Now a word about the layout of the center. Our beautiful facility has 25 rooms altogether, which are both very functional and aesthetically pleasing. We're standing here right at the entrance. To your left, you can see two rooms in a row. After each dance session, you're probably soaking in sweat and in desperate need of a shower. Just go straight ahead, turn left, and the shower room is on your left hand side. If you just want to take a nap, there is a six bed bunk room. It's immediately to the left of where you are standing right before the shower room. We also have a games room with dart boards, table tennis, pool, and card games. It is a good place to have fun with friends. Just take the first right. It is the second area to your right. You can explore it well later during our tour. Further ahead, in the corner, there are the bike racks. You can either park your bike here or hire one if you want a ride. The first hour is free. Part of our dance sessions will take place in the music room. It has a large mirror with various musical instruments and state of the art stereos. If you want to get there, just go straight, take the second right, and it's the second area to your left. Our friendly reception team is an invaluable resource for any visitor to the center. If your mobile phone needs charging, we have several adapters and can easily get your phone back up and running again. We also offer a range of chargeable services, including photocopy, scanning, and faxing. The reception is located in the center to the south of the music room. There is a medical center providing a full spectrum of care and treatment, especially for sports injuries like sprained knee. It's right opposite the reception to the left of the music room. Now I have to tell you about our gym where some of our dance sessions take place. It is also equipped with the latest equipment, including exercise bikes, treadmills, rowing machines, etcetera. If you walk straight ahead before you come to the end and turn right, it's the second room to your left. And speaking of food, if you ever feel hungry, you can either cook in the kitchen or grab a snack at the store. To reach it, keep straight on until you get to the third passageway, turn right, and it's the one after the gym. And the kitchen sits right next to the gym on the same side of the passageway. It has all the utensils you'll need, spatulas, frying pans, ladles, and plates. You name it. Just feel free to use it. By the way, if you have coats, umbrellas, or any large bags with you, the cloakroom is available. It's the room in the top right corner on the far side. Right. Well, if you're ready, we'll start the tour of our lovely community center. Speaker 3: That is the end of part two. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part two. PART 3 Speaker 4: Section three. You will hear two students called Helen and Paul talking to their tutor about a nursing course. First, you have some time to look at questions 21 to 24. Now listen carefully and answer questions 21 to 24. Speaker 5: Helen and Paul, congratulations to you both for doing so well the past semester. You two have exhibited an impeccable performance during your first year in the nursing programme. I'd like to get some feedback from the two of you to better improve the programme and to provide guidance for our prospective students. I'd like to start with you, Helen. So, first of all, which aspect of the programme impressed you? Speaker 3: Well, to be honest, when I was enrolled into the course, I was expecting a group of classmates my age. But as I stepped into the classroom for the first time, I was surprised by the diversity. Most were in their twenties, but there were also those in the thirties or even forties. As it turns out, the intergenerational communication has sparked intense debate and new thinking, and I think that's something special about the program that I appreciate very much. Speaker 5: What about you, Paul? What do you think of the program? Speaker 6: For me, the group project we carried out last semester is another key feature of the program. The whole class was divided into eight different groups working on eight prospective cases. Team building sessions were conducted in a collaborative way most of the time. Comprised of five members, our group studied acute pancreatitis. During the process, we broke the task into different parts and assigned them to each member. We were then able to tackle the complex problem by pooling our knowledge and skills. More importantly, stronger links were established between the group members. Because of the project, we've all become good friends. Speaker 3: That's true. Speaker 5: According to graduates, group projects prepare them for the work world in which teamwork and collaboration are increasingly the norm. So tell me, Paul, what else do you like about the program? Speaker 6: I want to be a registered nurse working in a public hospital after graduation, so the internship provided is a valuable opportunity for clinical practice in a supportive learning atmosphere. However, I was amazed by the amount of written assignments since I thought the course should have focused more on practice oriented learning. Speaker 3: Well, I have to disagree with you, Paul. The essays demonstrate your understanding of the course. For me, writing essays is a process that involves critical thinking, which challenges me to develop my points more thoroughly. I thus manage to gain a diversity of perspectives. Speaker 5: The programme is designed to deliver basic and advanced theoretical knowledge of core concepts, including health care systems concepts, together with practicum or clinical practice experience to bridge the classroom content to the practice setting. So I'm afraid written work is unavoidable. Also this year, we've added a module of law. How do you feel about that? Speaker 3: At first, we felt that learning law is kind of redundant and too time consuming. After a few sessions, we realised that it is necessary in dealing with future medical disputes. Speaker 4: Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions 25 to 30. Now listen and answer questions 25 to 30. Speaker 5: Do you have any suggestions for prospective students? Speaker 6: What bothers me most is handing in essays on time. I almost missed the deadline once because there were three essays due within the same week, so rationalizing your time is critical. Speaker 3: Well, that's true. The lectures deliver so much useful information. I have poor memory, so I kept making notes and revisiting them on a regular basis. To my surprise, at the end of the semester, I have learned the key concepts by heart. Speaker 5: How was the research? I heard that it was quite challenging. How did you manage to overcome the difficulties? Speaker 6: That's true. The majority of us had no clue how to carry out the research at first. Fortunately, when I was digging up reference materials at the library, I sought help from the librarian. She taught me about finding the appropriate resources and choosing the proper research methods. Speaker 3: Have you checked out the online forum? Yes. It has become a habit for me to visit the forum regularly. In a sense, it extends classroom learning. It is where the students post academic problems that they come across and get support from the faculty members. Speaker 6: Some of my classmates didn't do so well during the placement tests. I feel that background reading is necessary. Speaker 5: Lastly, do you have anything to say to the freshman? Speaker 3: I was really ambitious at first, trying to get straight A's on my transcript. I made tons of notes and worked hard even on the optional assignments to get extra credit. I stress myself out before having an emotional breakdown. After consulting my adviser, I found it important to set realistic goals. Don't push yourself too hard. It is wise to sort out your priorities. Speaker 5: Thank you for coming here today and providing valuable feedback on the program. Have a great summer break. Speaker 4: That is the end of section three. You now have half a minute to check your answers. PART 4 Speaker 7: Part four. You will hear an agriculture student giving part of a presentation about organic farming. First, you have some time to look at questions 31 to 40. Now listen carefully and answer questions 31 to 40. Speaker 8: Good morning. In today's presentation, I will talk about organic farming. Organic farming is an alternative agricultural system which originated early in the twentieth century in reaction to rapidly changing farming practices. Is a method of crop and livestock production that involves much more than choosing not to use pesticides, fertilisers, genetically modified organisms and antibiotics. Why do we adopt organic farming? There are many advantages of it. To begin with, organic farming is labelled as sustainable because it can protect the environment and maintain biological diversity. It's also rewarding that more and more customers tend to buy organic food nowadays. Product taste, concerns for the environment and the desire to avoid foods from genetically engineered organisms are among the main reasons some consumers prefer to buy organic food products. So this type of farming is expected to contribute to an increase in sales for grocery stores globally. Most studies suggest that organic farming uses significantly less energy than conventional one. This is primarily due to the fact that organic farming eliminates the need for synthetic fertilisers, which require substantial energy for production. In organic farming, soil fertility is maintained through the recycling of organic residues and nutrients produced on the farm. This practice not only reduces energy consumption but also benefits the soil by promoting its health and abundance of organic nutrients. Importantly, organic methods have the potential to effectively control insects that pose threats to crops, unlike artificial fertilizers, which may not have the same level of efficacy. For example, a common practice in organic farming to control aphids, which are pests that can damage crops, is the introduction of ladybugs into the fields. Ladybugs are natural predators of aphids and feed on them, effectively reducing their population. This method is environmentally friendly and avoids the use of synthetic pesticides. There are, of course, some disadvantages of organic farming. This past winter, due to extreme weather conditions, the production of potatoes in the north of our country had gone down by 40%. Lots of farmers had to face the severe loss in the production. The top 10 organic company in this country, Winter Wild Production, just announced that their sales have been really slow because of the natural disasters. In the past, the sales might increase by 30%, but this year it's only gone up by 20%. Despite weather challenges, the production of organic grass has not changed much over the years due to the implementation of various strategies. These include the use of resilient crop varieties that are carefully selected for their ability to withstand varying climatic conditions, the adoption of sustainable farming practices that prioritise soil health and fertility, and the incorporation of innovative irrigation and water management techniques. In the 1950s, organic farming in India experienced several changes. One notable development was the growing production of crops through organic farming practices, especially when compared to the early days when there was a food crisis. This positive outcome encouraged farmers to explore and adopt organic methods. Unlike the common perception that farmers were unwilling to accept organic farming, they actually showed interest in its potential benefits. However, despite their enthusiasm, farmers faced challenges in successfully implementing organic farming techniques. They encountered difficulties in effectively applying the prescribed instructions, which hindered their ability to fully embrace organic farming practices. In the 1990s, the United Nations World Food Programme published an international review on organic farming practices. The review examined the global implications of organic methods, concluding that such practices, invoid synthetic chemicals, provide a sanctuary for wildlife, thereby enhancing biodiversity and ecological health. Following the publication, an increased number of countries began showing interest in these findings. Subsequently, many took steps to improve their agricultural practices, integrating organic farming principles to support both the environment and local economy. As I have mentioned, compared to the conventional farming, organic farming has its advantages and disadvantages. Consumers' knowledge about organic food is increasing. So are their attitudes, preferences and willingness to pay for organic products. The good thing is that the scale of organic farming can be mostly determined by the demands of the market. Governments will respect people's attitudes towards how they want their food to be produced. Of course, environmental protection should never stop however agriculture is developed in the future. What I'm going to share next is... Speaker 7: That is the end of part four. You now have half a minute to check your answers. That is the end of the listening test. ==================== Chinese Translation ==================== 第一部分 Speaker 0: 你将听到几段不同的录音，并需要根据听到的内容回答问题。你会有时间阅读说明和问题，也有机会检查你的答案。所有录音只播放一次。考试分为四个部分。请将所有答案写在听力问题册中。考试结束时，你将有十分钟时间将答案誊写到答题纸上。现在翻到问题册第二页的第一部分。第一部分。你将听到一名青少年询问加入电影俱乐部的事宜。首先，你有时间看一下第一至第四题。现在仔细听，并回答第一至第四题。 Speaker 1: 你好，需要帮忙吗？ Speaker 2: 是的。我在网上看到你们电影院有一个电影俱乐部，但信息不多。你能多告诉我一些吗？ Speaker 1: 好的。我们还在建设网页，抱歉。我们几个月前才成立这个俱乐部，从一开始就很受欢迎。我们有定期的电影放映，还有很多其他福利。 Speaker 2: 俱乐部多久聚会一次？ Speaker 1: 每两周一次，在周四晚上。 Speaker 2: 好的。我16岁，可以加入吗？ Speaker 1: 当然可以。任何年龄的人都可以加入。 Speaker 2: 好的。加入需要多少钱？ Speaker 1: 这要看情况。基本费用是每季24英镑。但符合优惠条件的人只需21.50英镑。 Speaker 2: 我是学生。 Speaker 1: 那你就可以享受优惠价了。 Speaker 2: 太好了。 Speaker 1: 这让你可以免费观看俱乐部的电影，并且电影院其他所有电影的票价可以优惠2英镑。所以你只需支付4.50英镑，而不是6.50英镑。 Speaker 2: 太好了。 Speaker 1: 好的。我不知道这对你是否适用，但俱乐部成员在有电影放映时还可以享受三小时免费停车。 Speaker 2: 我不开车，但我女朋友开。所以可能有用。 Speaker 1: 是的。 Speaker 2: 好的。我肯定想加入。 Speaker 0: 在听对话的其余部分之前，你有时间看一下第五至第十题。现在听并回答第五至第十题。 Speaker 2: 你能告诉我接下来几部电影的信息吗？ Speaker 1: 恐怕这季的传单已经发完了。所以我给你介绍一下接下来几部电影，希望我们很快会在网上公布所有细节。下一次聚会是这个周四，10月14日，放映的电影叫《Pablo》。 Speaker 2: 啊，我看过评论。故事背景在阿根廷，对吧？ Speaker 1: 嗯。 Speaker 2: 关于一个离家出走的孩子？ Speaker 1: 没错。这部电影刚上映不久。那个孩子不知怎么上了电视，赢得了一个舞蹈比赛之类的。 Speaker 2: 是歌唱比赛。 Speaker 1: 是的。我也没看过，但海报上有说明。 Speaker 2: 听起来真不错。我肯定想看。之后放什么？ Speaker 1: 10月28日，有一部美国电影叫《The Soldier》。那是一部老无声电影。但这次放映，我们会请人用钢琴伴奏，就像过去老电影院那样，不过那时候有时是用管风琴伴奏的。 Speaker 2: 那一定是很老的电影了。第一部有声电影是什么时候发行的？1926年还是27年？ Speaker 1: 是的。这部电影是1922年制作的，所以早得多。不过，实际上我认为到1923年就有短篇有声故事片了。 Speaker 2: 那是什么类型的电影？ Speaker 1: 宣传说是喜剧。但从片名看，你会以为是战争片。我对情节了解不多，信息有限，不过你总可以在网上查查。 Speaker 2: 好的，我会查的。那再下一部电影呢？ Speaker 1: 让我想想。11月11日是一部关于动物的电影，就叫《Tiger》。那是一部动画片，听起来像是给孩子们看的，但实际上它是面向成年人的，有些地方相当吓人。我是在它刚上映时看的。 Speaker 2: 讲的是什么？ Speaker 1: 里面完全没有人类。就是关于数百万年前环境变化对当时生活的动物的影响。这是一部非常奇怪的电影。之后还有导演的讲座，所以应该会很受欢迎。我想你得提前订票。 Speaker 2: 好的。非常感谢。现在你能给我申请表吗…… Speaker 1: 当然。 Speaker 0: 第一部分结束。你现在有一分钟时间检查第一部分的答案。 第二部分 Speaker 3: 第二部分。你将听到一位名叫Mary Linden的工作人员介绍他们的社区中心。首先，你有时间看一下第11至第14题。现在仔细听，并回答第11至第14题。 Speaker 3: 我代表我们的社区中心，欢迎大家今天来到这里。我叫Mary Linden。正如大家所见，这个多功能厅是举办各种活动的绝佳场所，包括宴会、研讨会或舞会。中心为所有年龄段的人提供服务。由于你们大多数人已经报名参加了我们的舞蹈工作坊，我会在开始参观和熟悉环境之前先介绍相关信息。好的。当参与者第一次参加舞蹈课程报到时，他们会得到一份课程表，上面印有从尊巴到芭蕾等可选的季节性课程，以及详细的描述和时间安排。舞蹈工作室还会给你一个免费的鞋袋来存放你的舞鞋。每周的有氧运动都会带来惊喜。我们的健身教练会带你上一堂充满活力、振奋人心的舞蹈课。因此，强烈建议你带一条面巾和一个水瓶。由于物品容易混淆，你可能还想在你的物品上贴上姓名标签。它会提前邮寄给你。现在让我们更仔细地看看我们的舞蹈工作坊及其课程。每次课程期间和之后都有一系列活动可以参加。你将有机会制作自己的服装，但要到明天才进行。只要工作室有空，你也可以跟着音乐练习舞蹈。在舞蹈课的第一个下午和晚上，会介绍过去几十年的舞蹈发展。然后我们会以一场非正式舞蹈热身。我知道你们跳舞经验不多，但我们很快就会学会的。放心，直到课程结束才会有舞蹈测试。 Speaker 3: 在听演讲的其余部分之前，你有时间看一下第15至第20题。现在听并回答第15至第20题。 Speaker 3: 好的。现在说一下中心的布局。我们漂亮的设施总共有25个房间，既实用又美观。我们现在就站在入口处。在你的左边，你可以看到并排的两个房间。每次舞蹈课后，你可能汗流浃背，急需冲个澡。直走，左转，淋浴间就在你的左手边。如果你只想小睡一会儿，有一个六床位的宿舍间。它就在你站的位置的左边，紧挨着淋浴间。我们还有一个游戏室，里面有飞镖盘、乒乓球、台球和纸牌游戏。这是和朋友一起玩乐的好地方。在第一个路口右转，它就是你右边的第二个区域。稍后参观时你可以好好探索。再往前，在角落里，有自行车架。你可以把自行车停在这里，或者如果想骑车，也可以租一辆。第一个小时免费。我们部分舞蹈课程将在音乐室进行。音乐室有一面大镜子，配有各种乐器和最先进的音响。要去那里，直走，在第二个路口右转，它就是你左边的第二个区域。我们友好的接待团队对任何来访者来说都是宝贵的资源。如果你的手机需要充电，我们有几种适配器，可以轻松让你的手机恢复使用。我们还提供一系列收费服务，包括复印、扫描和传真。接待处位于中心，在音乐室的南边。有一个医疗中心提供全方位的护理和治疗，特别是针对运动损伤，比如膝盖扭伤。它就在接待处对面，音乐室的左边。现在我必须告诉你我们的健身房，我们的一些舞蹈课程在那里进行。它也配备了最新的设备，包括健身车、跑步机、划船机等等。直走，在走到尽头之前右转，它就是你左边的第二个房间。说到食物，如果你饿了，你可以在厨房做饭，或者在商店买点零食。要去那里，一直走到第三个通道，右转，它就在健身房后面。厨房就在健身房旁边，在通道的同一侧。里面有你需要的一切用具，锅铲、煎锅、长柄勺和盘子。应有尽有。请随意使用。顺便说一下，如果你带着外套、雨伞或任何大包，有衣帽间可用。它位于远端右上角的房间。好了。如果你们准备好了，我们就开始参观我们可爱的社区中心。 Speaker 3: 第二部分结束。你现在有三十秒时间检查第二部分的答案。 第三部分 Speaker 4: 第三部分。你将听到两名学生Helen和Paul与他们的导师谈论一门护理课程。首先，你有时间看一下第21至第24题。现在仔细听，并回答第21至第24题。 Speaker 5: Helen和Paul，祝贺你们俩上学期表现如此出色。你们在护理项目的第一年展现了无可挑剔的表现。我想从你们两位那里得到一些反馈，以便更好地改进项目，并为未来的学生提供指导。我想先从Helen开始。首先，项目的哪个方面给你留下了深刻印象？ Speaker 3: 老实说，当我入学时，我原以为会是一群和我同龄的同学。但当我第一次走进教室时，我对这种多样性感到惊讶。大多数人在二十多岁，但也有三十多岁甚至四十多岁的。事实证明，代际交流激发了激烈的辩论和新的思考，我认为这是该项目中我非常欣赏的一个特别之处。 Speaker 5: 你呢，Paul？你对这个项目有什么看法？ Speaker 6: 对我来说，我们上学期进行的小组项目是项目的另一个关键特点。全班被分成八个不同的小组，研究八个潜在的案例。团队建设会议大部分时间都是以协作方式进行的。我们小组由五名成员组成，研究了急性胰腺炎。在这个过程中，我们把任务分成不同的部分，分配给每个成员。然后我们通过汇集知识和技能来解决复杂的问题。更重要的是，小组成员之间建立了更紧密的联系。因为这个项目，我们都成了好朋友。 Speaker 3: 确实如此。 Speaker 5: 根据毕业生的反馈，小组项目为他们进入团队合作和协作日益成为常态的工作世界做好了准备。那么告诉我，Paul，你还喜欢这个项目的哪些方面？ Speaker 6: 我毕业后想在一家公立医院做注册护士，所以提供的实习是在支持性学习氛围中进行临床实践的宝贵机会。然而，我对大量的书面作业感到惊讶，因为我原以为课程应该更侧重于实践导向的学习。 Speaker 3: 嗯，我不同意你的看法，Paul。论文展示了你对课程的理解。对我来说，写论文是一个涉及批判性思维的过程，它挑战我更深入地阐述我的观点。因此我设法获得了多样化的视角。 Speaker 5: 该项目旨在提供核心概念的基础和高级理论知识，包括医疗保健系统概念，以及实习或临床实践经验，以弥合课堂内容与实践环境之间的差距。所以恐怕书面作业是不可避免的。另外今年，我们增加了一个法律模块。你们觉得怎么样？ Speaker 3: 起初，我们觉得学习法律有点多余且太耗时。上了几节课后，我们意识到它在处理未来的医疗纠纷中是必要的。 Speaker 4: 在听谈话的其余部分之前，你有时间看一下第25至第30题。现在听并回答第25至第30题。 Speaker 5: 你们对未来学生有什么建议吗？ Speaker 6: 最困扰我的是按时交论文。我差点错过一次截止日期，因为同一周内要交三篇论文，所以合理安排时间至关重要。 Speaker 3: 嗯，确实如此。讲座提供了大量有用的信息。我记忆力不好，所以我一直做笔记并定期复习。令我惊讶的是，到学期末，我已经把关键概念牢记在心了。 Speaker 5: 研究方面怎么样？我听说相当有挑战性。你们是如何克服困难的？ Speaker 6: 确实如此。我们大多数人一开始都不知道如何进行这项研究。幸运的是，当我在图书馆查阅参考资料时，我向图书管理员寻求了帮助。她教我如何找到合适的资源并选择正确的研究方法。 Speaker 3: 你查看过在线论坛吗？是的。定期访问论坛已经成为我的习惯。从某种意义上说，它延伸了课堂学习。学生们在那里发布他们遇到的学术问题，并从教职员工那里获得支持。 Speaker 6: 我的一些同学在分班考试中表现不太好。我觉得背景阅读是必要的。 Speaker 5: 最后，你们对新生有什么想说的吗？ Speaker 3: 一开始我非常有野心，想在成绩单上拿全A。我做了大量的笔记，甚至努力完成选修作业以获得额外学分。我把自己逼得太紧，直到情绪崩溃。在咨询了我的导师后，我发现设定现实的目标很重要。不要把自己逼得太紧。分清主次是明智的。 Speaker 5: 感谢你们今天来到这里，为项目提供了宝贵的反馈。祝你们暑假愉快。 Speaker 4: 第三部分结束。你现在有半分钟时间检查你的答案。 第四部分 Speaker 7: 第四部分。你将听到一名农业学生做关于有机农业的演讲的一部分。首先，你有时间看一下第31至第40题。现在仔细听，并回答第31至第40题。 Speaker 8: 早上好。在今天的演讲中，我将谈谈有机农业。有机农业是一种替代性农业系统，起源于二十世纪初，是对快速变化的农业实践的反应。它是一种作物和牲畜生产方法，涉及的内容远不止选择不使用农药、化肥、转基因生物和抗生素。我们为什么要采用有机农业？它有很多优点。首先，有机农业被认为是可持续的，因为它可以保护环境并维持生物多样性。同样令人欣慰的是，如今越来越多的顾客倾向于购买有机食品。产品口味、对环境问题的担忧以及避免食用转基因生物食品的愿望，是一些消费者偏好购买有机食品的主要原因。因此，这种类型的农业预计将有助于全球杂货店销售额的增长。大多数研究表明，有机农业比传统农业消耗的能源少得多。这主要是因为有机农业消除了对合成肥料的需求，而合成肥料的生产需要大量能源。在有机农业中，土壤肥力是通过回收农场产生的有机残留物和养分来维持的。这种做法不仅减少了能源消耗，还通过促进土壤健康和丰富的有机养分而使土壤受益。重要的是，有机方法有可能有效控制对作物构成威胁的昆虫，这与可能不具备同等功效的人工肥料不同。例如，有机农业中控制蚜虫（一种可能损害作物的害虫）的常见做法是将瓢虫引入田间。瓢虫是蚜虫的天敌，以它们为食，从而有效减少其数量。这种方法对环境友好，避免了使用合成杀虫剂。当然，有机农业也有一些缺点。去年冬天，由于极端天气条件，我国北部地区的马铃薯产量下降了40%。许多农民不得不面对生产的严重损失。该国排名前十的有机公司Winter Wild Production刚刚宣布，由于自然灾害，他们的销售一直非常缓慢。过去，销售额可能增长30%，但今年只增长了20%。尽管天气挑战重重，但由于各种策略的实施，有机草料的产量多年来变化不大。这些策略包括使用经过精心挑选、能够承受不同气候条件的抗逆作物品种，采用优先考虑土壤健康和肥力的可持续农业实践，以及整合创新的灌溉和水管理技术。在20世纪50年代，印度的有机农业经历了一些变化。一个显著的发展是通过有机农业实践种植的作物产量不断增加，尤其是在与早期粮食危机时期相比时。这一积极成果鼓励了农民探索和采用有机方法。与普遍认为农民不愿意接受有机农业的看法不同，他们实际上对其潜在好处表现出了兴趣。然而，尽管热情高涨，农民们在成功实施有机农业技术方面仍面临挑战。他们在有效应用规定指导方面遇到了困难，这阻碍了他们完全接受有机农业实践的能力。在20世纪90年代，联合国世界粮食计划署发布了一份关于有机农业实践的国际评论。该评论审视了有机方法的全球影响，得出结论认为，这种做法避免了合成化学品，为野生动物提供了庇护所，从而增强了生物多样性和生态健康。该评论发表后，越来越多的国家开始对这些发现表现出兴趣。随后，许多国家采取措施改进其农业实践，整合有机农业原则以支持环境和当地经济。正如我提到的，与传统农业相比，有机农业有其优点和缺点。消费者对有机食品的了解正在增加。他们的态度、偏好和支付有机产品的意愿也在增加。好消息是，有机农业的规模在很大程度上可以由市场需求决定。政府将尊重人们对其食物生产方式的看法。当然，无论未来农业如何发展，环境保护都不应停止。我接下来要分享的是……
