W: Good morning, listeners. Today I’d like to introduce our guest speaker George Allen from the British Council, [6]
who is going to talk to us about living in the UK.
George, over to you.
M: Thank you. As you are no doubt aware the UK is becoming a popular destination for people who wish to study at university, so what I’d like to do is, well, just give you listeners an insight into what living in the UK is really like.
W: What do students have to consider first before they go?
M: Finance, of course. Britain is quite an expensive place to live in. Therefore, you need to consider costs very carefully. [7]
And one of the major expenses is tuition fees.
University courses range from about 5,000 pounds to 8,000 pounds, depending on the type of course. Then, other expenses such as books, which can cost about 500 pounds per year.
W: That’s a considerable amount. Then where do you suggest students to stay?
M: [8]
As for accommodation, many people prefer to stay in the university’s hall of residence because living on campus is a lot cheaper than living off campus.
A room in halls would cost you about 80 pounds per week outside of London. The north of England, however, is much ’cheaper.
W: Then what about living off campus?
M: Well, you can rent a private house with a group of other students. You may think this would be an expensive option, but if you share the cost with three or four other students it can actually work out cheaper than a room on campus. But do bear in mind that you have additional transport costs to and from university.
W: That’s good news. What is the climate like in the UK?
M: Britain is famous for its bad weather and for good reasons. [9]
It rains often in the UK, and even in the summer it can still be quite cold.
So take plenty of warm clothes with you.
W: You bet. George, some listeners are anxious about food there. Is it really unpleasant?
M: Many people who visit the UK often find the food rather boring and uninteresting. This is because, generally, [10]
people don’t use spices in their cooking.
Nevertheless, some of the food, I must say, is actually rather good. And the cheapest places to eat out are often local pubs, where they serve excellent home-cooked food, as well as serving as the centre of social life in most towns and cities in the UK.
W: George, you have given us valuable advice on living in the UK. It’s very beneficial to our listeners. Thanks a lot.
M: It’s my pleasure.

选项
A、University courses range from 4,000 pounds to 8,000 pounds.
B、Books can cost about 500 pounds per term.
C、Tuition fees are one of the major expenses.
D、Different types of courses cost the same.
答案
C
解析
由选项关键词4,000 pounds to 8,000 pounds,cost,Tuition fees可推测本题跟学费有关。男士在讲Finance“经费”时,提到其中最主要的一个开支是学费,C项与会话相符。A项错在4,000 pounds,应是5,000 pounds;B项为强干扰项,会话中说的是other expenses such as books(包括书本费在内,但不单只书本费)大约为每年500英镑,B项“书本费约为每学期500英镑”将这些费用的范围缩小了,而且per term也与录音中的per year不符,故排除;录音提到,课程的花费在5000英镑到8000英镑之间,花费多少取决于课程种类,可见不同种类的课程花费不一样。故排除D。
