## 题目原文

00:00:01,560 
 Now turn to Section three on page five. 
 00:00:10,100 
 Section three. You'll hear a student called Paul talking to a tutor about a course he is thinking of doing. 
 00:00:18,980 
 First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-five on page five. Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-five. 
 00:00:51,920 
 Good morning. Come in. You're Paul, are you? 
 00:00:55,320 
 Yes. I spoke to you on the phone. 
 00:00:57,340 
 Yes. Have a seat. You wanted to talk to me about the archaeology course. 
 00:01:03,080 
 Yes. Uh, I've read the handbook, but I'd like to find out a few more details before I decide whether to do it. 
 00:01:08,840 
 Right. Yes. What would you like to know? 
 00:01:11,780 
 Well, first of all, can I combine the archaeology course with one in anthropology? 
 00:01:17,420 
 Yes. You can combine it with any other subject apart from classical history. 
 00:01:22,720 
 Mm. 
 00:01:23,280 
 That's simply because there's some overlap in the lecture times for those two courses. We weren't able to coordinate them. 
 00:01:30,360 
 Okay, fine. And could you tell me about the modules? 
 00:01:34,040 
 Well, in the first semester, there are three. All of them are compulsory. We don't offer optional modules till next year. 
 00:01:42,060 
 Right. 
 00:01:42,960 
 The first one focuses on what can be learned from specific artifacts, such as pottery and stone tools. It's called Object Matters, and it's taught by Dr. Morris. 
 00:01:54,960 
 Is that-- How is the module presented? I mean, is it lectures? 
 00:02:00,120 
 We refer to the means of presentation as the learning method, and in this case, it's lectures integrated with practical sessions, so it's a mixture. 
 00:02:10,479 
 What about the content? I suppose we'll be looking at different kinds of archaeological remains and how to date them and so on. 
 00:02:18,240 
 To some extent, but the module is basically about processes. First of all, recording material, then classification, then interpretation of the data. That's how archaeologists draw conclusions about their findings. And finally, display. Is that okay? 
 00:02:37,260 
 I think so. Yes, thanks. Uh, one other thing. How is the module assessed? Is there an exam? 
 00:02:44,040 
 No, it's all based on coursework. 
 00:02:50,040 
 Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions twenty-six to thirty on page six. 
 00:03:03,140 
 Now listen and answer questions twenty-six to thirty. 
 00:03:24,020 
 Okay. 
 00:03:25,060 
 And the second module, that's the one called Towns and Cities, is taught by our department head, Professor Elliot. And as the name suggests, the module's about the origins of built environments and how they developed. 
 00:03:40,860 
 That's mainly factual then, I suppose. 
 00:03:43,500 
 It is really. And for that reason, the assessment's by examination. But you may be pleased to know it's an oral rather than a written exam, and- 
 00:03:53,240 
 It sounds a bit scary. 
 00:03:55,430 
 Most of our students find they actually enjoy it, so don't worry too much. 
 00:03:59,220 
 Okay. 
 00:04:00,300 
 And then the title of the third module is Method and Science. And in that, Dr. Thompson will be introducing you to the standard techniques used in archaeological fieldwork and analysis, things like excavating and dating. 
 00:04:15,380 
 What about the learning method for this module? Are there any lectures, or is it all laboratory work? 
 00:04:21,399 
 Oh, it's half lab work and half seminars. There aren't any lectures. Then right at the end of the module, you'll take part in a site survey. The date for that is week beginning the tenth of March, but I can't tell you the location yet. That'll be announced later. But I think you'll find it very useful. 
 00:04:41,280 
 Yes, I know someone who went on that last- 
 00:04:46,460 
 That is the end of section three. You now have half a minute to check your answers.
