My name's Davina, and I'm responsible for our city's orientation program. We want you to become familiar with everything the city has to offer and at the same time to give you a chance to meet some of the people who run the city services. But before the party gets underway, there's a special development I'd like to tell you about. 00:01:25,260 In the light of feedback from last year's new arrivals, we have decided to run a mentor matching scheme. This involves pairing you individually with someone else in the city who will be your special friend and advisor for a year. These friends or mentors have been here for many years. They know their way around, and they're all volunteers. They want to help you settle into your new life as quickly as possible. In this way, we hope that any problems you have will be sorted out without too much delay, as you can turn to your individual mentor for help. 00:02:02,980 So how can this scheme help you? I must stress that no money is involved, and a mentor will always do their best to advise you. You can ask about how to register with a doctor or a dentist. Your mentor can't really help you if you're not happy with your accommodation or you need a job. But if you're living on a fairly tight budget, they can certainly recommend where to buy things at low prices. 00:02:31,080 Now, we know that some of you speak our language fluently. Others of you are still learning. Some of you may have dependents at home who don't feel confident about dealing with things. We've produced leaflets about what the city has to offer in many different languages. But if you can't find what you need for your relatives, then we have specialist interpreters who may be able to help, although we do have to charge for this. 00:02:57,620 Despite having a mentor, you may still feel isolated, so making contact with more friendly faces can be reassuring. Over the next couple of months, there'll be a weekly open evening in the council house every Thursday between six and nine. One or two officers from the city services will be on duty, and you're welcome to just drop in for a chat. You don't need to make an appointment. And one final piece of advice: be patient. There are bound to be ups and downs during this initial period, and you need to allow yourself a few months to adjust to new customs, changes in diet, different climates, new currency, rules, regulations, and so on. 00:03:44,320 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions sixteen to twenty on page four. 00:04:16,820 Now listen and answer questions sixteen to twenty. 00:04:24,480 Now I'm going to talk you through some of the places you need to know, and you can note them on your map. At the moment, we're in the social services unit on the High Street, and when you come out, you'll be facing the Avenue. 00:04:39,160 Just across the street on your right is the open air market. That's closed every Monday, but otherwise open six days a week, and you'll find lots of bargains there. If you want to find the sports center from here, turn right, continue along the High Street until you see Broad Street on your left. And at this junction, you'll find the building tucked away in City Gardens. However, if you need the library, walk up Broad Street from the High Street, cross over Greenway, and you'll find it immediately on the left-hand side. 00:05:14,560 Even though there's lots of information leaflets and advice sheets at the library, at some stage you'll need information which is only available from staff at the Council House. This is a most impressive building. If you go down the Avenue from here, it's in front of you. You can't miss the statue just in front of the building. One more place which you're bound to want is the post office, which is the last building on the corner of the Avenue, almost opposite the statue. Now, when you get... 00:05:50,060 That is the end of section two. 00:05:52,840 You now have half a minute to check your answers. 00:06:25,900 Now turn to section three on page five. ## 题目与答案 ### 11. 11 According to Davina,a typical mentor is someone who 11 According to Davina,a typical mentor is someone who - has lived in the city for a long time. - would like to have some new friends. - wants to earn a little extra money. **答案**：has lived in the city for a long time. 原文定位：These friends or mentors have been here for many years.
