## 题目原文

00:00:00,560 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions one to six. 
 00:00:08,200 
 G'day. What can I do for you? 
 00:00:11,040 
 I'd like to do a day's walk in the area. Do you have any suggestions? 
 00:00:16,160 
 Well, the most popular day walks around here are the Village Walk, the McGrady Falls Trail, and the Coal Mine Walk. If you just want a short walk, you can do the Village Walk. That's just 6 kilometers. The McGrady Falls is 12 kilometers. The Coal Mine Walk's a bit longer again. It's 13.5. 
 00:00:38,880 
 Right. So are those two more difficult as well as longer? 
 00:00:43,640 
 Well, the Village Walk's classified as easy. McGrady Falls has some climbing, which is a bit difficult, but overall it's moderate. But the Coal Mine Walk's mostly on flat ground, and the paths are very good, so that's down as easy in spite of the length. 
 00:01:01,360 
 And, um, what's special about each of the walks? I mean, what interesting things could I see? 
 00:01:08,460 
 Well, with the Village Walk, you start off in the village. It's really nice. And right in the middle, there's the museum. That's very popular. It tells you a bit about the background to the region. 
 00:01:19,940 
 Okay. 
 00:01:20,840 
 Then at the edge of the village, there's a park where you can have a rest and look at the view before you set off on the walk back. It's pretty impressive on a clear day. You get a fantastic view of the mountains. 
 00:01:32,700 
 Mm. 
 00:01:34,260 
 I wouldn't mind a chance to go swimming. Can I do that at the McGrady Falls? 
 00:01:39,300 
 Yeah, just under the falls there's a great pool. At this time of year, it's quite chilly, but it's a good way of cooling off after the climb up. And if you're interested in flowers, it's a really good walk. You'll see lots of them. 
 00:01:53,440 
 Oh, right. And the Coal Mine Walk? Do you actually go down a mine? 
 00:01:59,700 
 No, it's closed down now, but there are signs along the path telling you all about the mine's history. It's very popular with school parties, but it's not just aimed at children. It's interesting for anyone. 
 00:02:12,220 
 Well, it sounds good, but I think I'll go for the McGrady Falls Trail. 
 00:02:20,780 
 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions seven to ten. 
 00:02:47,400 
 Now listen and answer questions seven to ten. 
 00:02:54,780 
 Is there anything else I should know about it? Things to take and so on? 
 00:02:59,600 
 Well, I should tell you there's an entrance fee for the trail, for maintenance, et cetera. It's, uh, ten dollars for adults, and you'll need a map because the walk's not guided, but they'll give you one when you pay your entry fee. 
 00:03:13,480 
 Right. And I'd like to take a picnic. 
 00:03:16,840 
 The best thing is to get that from the cafe at the beginning of the trail. They'll pack it all up for you. 
 00:03:22,600 
 Great. And can you tell me how to get there? 
 00:03:25,980 
 Sure. The start of the trail is about 9 kilometers from here, so it's best to get a bus. 
 00:03:32,100 
 Will the bus that stops at the front of the hotel take me there? 
 00:03:35,600 
 That's the number 268 bus. It wouldn't take you there directly. It's best if you walk down to the market, and then you can catch the number 279 there. It'll take you directly to the start of the trail. 
 00:03:50,640 
 Okay. And will it be easy to tell when to get off? 
 00:03:54,720 
 You need to ask the bus driver to stop at the lake. 
 00:03:57,320 
 Mm-hmm. 
 00:03:57,720 
 The start of the walk is just beyond that. 
 00:04:00,300 
 Okay. And the trail is a round trip? 
 00:04:04,120 
 Yes, so you can get the same bus back. But mind that you're not too late. The last bus leaves at 5:30 on weekdays and 6:30 on Saturdays and 6 o'clock on Sundays. 
 00:04:17,600 
 Okay. Well, thanks for all that information. 
 00:04:20,240 
 No problems. Have a good walk. 
 00:04:25,420 
 That is the end of part one. You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.
