I heard you passed your driving test. Congratulations. 00:00:58,880 Thanks, Olivia. I passed just last week. It feels great to be independent and driving on my own. 00:01:06,290 I really want to take driving lessons, but I haven't been able to find a driving school that will give lessons during the weekends so that I don't have to miss any classes at college. 00:01:20,200 The woman wants to take driving lessons during the weekends, so "weekends" has been written in the space. 00:01:28,740 Now we shall begin. You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time. 00:01:38,180 Listen carefully and answer questions one to five. 00:01:44,720 Hi, Zach. I heard you passed your driving test. Congratulations. 00:01:49,880 Thanks, Olivia. I passed just last week. It feels great to be independent and driving on my own. 00:01:57,380 I really want to take driving lessons, but I haven't been able to find a driving school that will give lessons during the weekends so that I don't have to miss any classes at college. 00:02:08,920 The driving school that I used was brilliant and really flexible with their teaching hours. It's really close to the school. The address is 67 Kings Road. That's 67 King, apostrophe S, Road. 00:02:24,760 Oh, that's perfect. I don't like the idea of driving around busy streets. Did your teacher make you drive in urban areas, or did he mainly teach you on roads in the countryside? 00:02:37,040 My teacher said that I had to learn on both in order to become a good and experienced driver. We would start in the city center and then drive north above the city. 00:02:49,080 He sounds like a good teacher. Would you mind giving me his contact details so I can ask him for lessons? 00:02:55,960 Of course. My mother's friend, Daniel Smith, referred me to him. His name is Alan Sutcliffe. 00:03:03,080 Could you spell the surname, please? 00:03:05,280 S-U-T-C-L-I-F-F-E. 00:03:11,740 Thanks for helping me out. I'll give him a call tomorrow. I don't know if I should learn in a manual or automatic car. How do I decide? 00:03:21,620 I wasn't sure which type of car to learn in either. In the end, I chose to learn in a manual car because once you've learnt how to drive manually, you can drive automatic as well. Most cars on the road are automatic nowadays. 00:03:37,780 Okay. I think I'll learn with a manual car too then. Hopefully, the teacher will be able to give me lessons in the evenings after school. 00:03:46,940 It would be much better if you take the lessons during the day. It will be far easier for you to learn when there is enough daylight to clearly see everything going on around you. But you need to be an experienced driver to drive safely at night. 00:04:04,180 How frustrating. I was hoping I wouldn't have to take lessons during the weekends. You're right, though. Safety comes first. 00:04:14,980 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions six to ten. Now listen and answer questions six to ten. 00:04:33,900 Speaking of safety, you should wait until summer to start learning. It's really difficult and dangerous to drive in the wind and rain as a learner, so you should definitely wait until the weather is sunny and dry. 00:04:49,120 Okay, that's perfect, actually. It will give me some time to save up some money to pay for the lessons. 00:04:55,840 Tell me about it. I had to work for months before I had enough money saved up. It was worth all the work when I finally got my driving license, though. 00:05:06,390 The whole process is so expensive. How much did it cost you in the end? 00:05:11,760 Well, each half-hour lesson cost 30 dollars, and then the final test cost 50 dollars. In total, it cost me about 300 dollars. 00:05:22,580 Gosh, it's pretty expensive. How did you find the test? Was it really difficult? 00:05:29,740 No, it wasn't too bad, and the man was really calm and friendly. I knew that I would have to perform two parking maneuvers during the test, so I practiced them a lot beforehand, and that really helped. The test used to last forty minutes, but it changed a bit. For the first 20 minutes of the test, he gave me directions, and I had to just drive around, and then the last 10 minutes was for demonstrating the maneuvers. So the test is 30 minutes in total. 00:06:02,540 Okay, great. I'll remember that. Do you have any more advice? 00:06:08,060 It's really good to practice driving a lot outside of driving lessons as well. Whenever my parents were running errands on the weekends, I would offer to drive them. My driving teacher also told me to buy a notebook to write down everything that I've learnt in it, like a diary. 00:06:26,060 [laughs] That sounds boring, but I'll do it if it helps. 00:06:31,340 I found it really useful. Before my test, I read through everything I had written down, and it reminded me of a lot of things that I had forgotten about. It's really helpful for the theory test as well because there's so much information to remember for it. 00:06:47,920 That's great, Zach. Thanks for your help. 00:06:50,820 No problem. See you at school. 00:06:53,080 Bye. 00:06:56,660 That is the end of section one. You now have half a minute to check your answers. ## 题目与答案 ### 1.
