## 题目原文

00:00:01,020 
 Part three. 
 00:00:03,040 
 You will hear two student nurses, called Holly and Ed, discussing their portfolios, which are the folders of work they have to put together for their nursing degrees. 
 00:00:15,840 
 First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-four. 
 00:00:51,240 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-four. 
 00:00:59,340 
 Thanks for meeting me, Holly. I really appreciate it, especially since you're a whole year ahead. 
 00:01:05,000 
 Hey, Ed. No worries. I remember how hard it was in the beginning. What was it you wanted to discuss? 
 00:01:11,860 
 Well, I'm concerned about the portfolio as I've never done one before. 
 00:01:15,720 
 Oh, it's fine as long as you update it regularly. 
 00:01:18,660 
 I'm not so worried about that. It's more that I might put in examples of my work that make me look bad. 
 00:01:24,240 
 Mm, I sympathize. I felt like that too. But it's simply a tool to show what you've learned in class and how you relate that to your nursing work. You don't have to write about everything. 
 00:01:35,100 
 Okay then. But why do we need to do portfolios? My mum's a nurse, and she didn't have to do one. 
 00:01:41,400 
 Mm, I read somewhere that putting together a portfolio is a bit like a photograph album because you don't select the embarrassing shots. 
 00:01:49,120 
 So we're supposed to display our work like an artist. 
 00:01:52,140 
 Mm, not necessarily, though the analogy isn't far off. I believe architects use them when putting together bids for work. 
 00:01:59,880 
 Right. 
 00:02:00,480 
 But if you want some advice, I'm happy to tell you how I gathered information to put into my portfolio. 
 00:02:05,940 
 That would be great. 
 00:02:07,420 
 I learned early on that it was important for me to keep a diary. 
 00:02:11,200 
 Why? Was it so you didn't forget things? 
 00:02:13,620 
 Well, in fact, I was witnessing some of the most memorable events I'd ever seen, so that wasn't really an issue. Some people said it helped them learn from their errors, but for me it was more that it gave me time to reflect on how I felt about events, what I had and hadn't learnt from them. 
 00:02:31,500 
 Okay, I'll remember that. 
 00:02:33,700 
 Look, the best thing you can do about your portfolio at this stage is to speak to your mentor. 
 00:02:38,940 
 But I don't have one yet. 
 00:02:40,420 
 Really? Well, once you've got one, they're great. 
 00:02:44,320 
 Okay. But until then, I suppose I could speak to the other students in my year. 
 00:02:48,720 
 Well, that's a good idea. They're probably feeling just like you. But since your mum's a nurse, why don't you see if she can put you in touch with other ward nurses who are working? 
 00:02:58,460 
 That's a great idea. I'll do that then. 
 00:03:04,160 
 Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions twenty-five to thirty. 
 00:03:41,020 
 Now listen and answer questions twenty-five to thirty. 
 00:03:48,880 
 What parts of the course do you really enjoy? 
 00:03:51,500 
 Oh, I love all of it. Take the next biology assignment we've got, for example. I've spent all my time in libraries recently to prepare for it. But then I went to this beautiful old library that looked like it was just off a film set, and it just made me feel privileged to be there. [chuckles] And you? What have you enjoyed so far? 
 00:04:12,280 
 Well, you might think me crazy. It was doing night shifts. 
 00:04:15,880 
 Why is that? Because time flies? 
 00:04:19,420 
 No. It's that I found it's a great time to find out more about the people we're looking after and to help those most in need by supporting them and being there to deal with their worries. 
 00:04:30,560 
 You're going to love the one-to-one aspect of hospital care. 
 00:04:33,540 
 You think? 
 00:04:34,440 
 Definitely. 
 00:04:35,740 
 And what about surgery? Have you observed yet? 
 00:04:39,100 
 Yes. I was surprised at how much preparation there was to do and impressed at how much they got done so quickly. I really enjoyed seeing the surgical unit work so efficiently together, like a well-oiled machine. 
 00:04:52,900 
 Well, I'd love to see that. What I've enjoyed a lot as well is ward duty, especially the neonatal ward. 
 00:04:59,930 
 Mm. 
 00:05:00,520 
 There was one patient I escorted there to see her baby, who had been born prematurely at only six months. Seeing the bond they shared, I'll never forget it. 
 00:05:09,920 
 Ah. Actually, I've been asked to write a blog about my experiences as a nursing student. I agreed to share my learning experiences since I really enjoy bouncing ideas off others and reading their comments, though it'll be a challenge to keep it up regularly. 
 00:05:26,520 
 Hmm. Interesting, though. I've got a placement on the vascular ward next. What's it like there? 
 00:05:32,120 
 The patients there often need surgery rather than pastoral care. So you really master dressing various types of wound. It's a difficult thing to get the hang of, but immensely rewarding. 
 00:05:43,680 
 Okay, thanks. Well, I look forward to- 
 00:05:49,620 
 That is the end of part three. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part three.
