## 题目原文

00:00:00,400 
 Part three. You will hear a student called Susan talking to an education officer called Edward, who works at a nature reserve in East Africa called Chumbe. 
 00:00:13,000 
 First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-four. 
 00:00:47,480 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-four. 
 00:00:55,380 
 Hello, Susan. My name's Edward. 
 00:00:57,660 
 Hello. Uh, thank you for agreeing to talk to me. I sent you a letter. 
 00:01:02,440 
 Yes. 
 00:01:03,400 
 I'm doing an education course, and I'm looking at how local institutions interact with their community. I was a tourist here in Chumbe a few years ago, and when I read about your science program for schools, I thought I could use it as a case study. 
 00:01:18,920 
 Fine. Go ahead and tell us what you want to know. 
 00:01:22,660 
 Well, I know that since I first came here, you've expanded your activities. 
 00:01:27,700 
 Yes, we have. Chumbe's always been important because it's a coral island, and it's got a wide variety of wildlife species. But a few years ago, it became even richer in natural resources. 
 00:01:40,040 
 Is that because there were increased safeguards? 
 00:01:43,040 
 Yes. We were officially designated a nature reserve, and now we've got more people coming from all over the world to study here in our ongoing research program. 
 00:01:53,080 
 Can you tell me about the background to the school's program? 
 00:01:56,360 
 Uh-huh. 
 00:01:57,660 
 I know it started in two thousand and four, and I think it was intended to link directly into the school's ecology syllabus. 
 00:02:05,300 
 That's right. We responded to an approach by a local primary school teacher. He asked if he could bring his pupils here to do some nature studies with our rangers. Then we started organizing field trips for other schools. We got government funding, initially for twelve months. That period was eventually extended, but the government sent a team to do a formal evaluation first. 
 00:02:28,220 
 Do you mind just telling me briefly what their report said? 
 00:02:31,960 
 They found that in general, the field trips had been enjoyable and stimulating, and they'd been effective in raising awareness, both in the children and also in their teachers of the natural environment and the need to manage resources carefully. 
 00:02:45,720 
 Great. And did they suggest any changes? 
 00:02:49,680 
 Not exactly. They told us what the problems were, and then they left it up to us to decide how to solve them. 
 00:02:56,560 
 Uh, for example? 
 00:02:58,000 
 Mm, the feedback suggested that the field trips could be even more beneficial if schools had materials to give them... 
 00:03:06,240 
 Now listen and answer questions twenty-five to thirty. 
 00:03:13,360 
 The feedback also told us that schools weren't certain what to expect when they came on the trips. So we decided to institute a preparatory visit by our staff to give a presentation. 
 00:03:24,240 
 What does that involve? 
 00:03:25,820 
 Uh, about a month beforehand, members of our education team meet teachers and pupils and talk them through a sample itinerary for their field trip. They also explain how they have to behave because we have to be very careful about health and safety. 
 00:03:40,880 
 And I suppose you also have to make sure that the resources themselves don't suffer any damage. 
 00:03:46,140 
 Exactly. Another thing the team does is explain the correct handling of snorkeling apparatus, and children are allowed to try it out. 
 00:03:54,510 
 Oh. 
 00:03:54,540 
 We take it all along to the meeting. 
 00:03:56,460 
 Oh, and now that you've introduced these changes, will there be another evaluation? 
 00:04:01,220 
 Eventually, yes. But we've already had some very positive feedback informally. Teachers have told us they feel better prepared for the trip and have a better idea what to expect, and that the pupils feel less nervous about the trips. And there have been a couple of unanticipated benefits too. Staff here say that the preparatory visits help them to gauge the level of the pupils in terms of their understanding of conservation issues. 
 00:04:27,980 
 So you can tailor your program more effectively to the needs of each group? 
 00:04:32,320 
 Yes. And also because our rangers have a chance to explain about the tides and the fact that the coral reef can only be visited on foot at specific times, schools have been getting here much more punctually. 
 00:04:45,360 
 Great. Well, thank you for filling me in. That was very useful. 
 00:04:49,599 
 Is there anything else we can help you with? 
 00:04:53,140 
 Could I possibly see the formal evaluation report you mentioned? 
 00:04:57,000 
 Yes, I can arrange to get you a copy. Do you want the materials pack too? 
 00:05:01,760 
 Oh, that'd be great. Then I can take them back with me. Uh, I won't read them here. I've only got a couple of days, and I'd like to ask a few of the teachers who've been here some questions, if possible. 
 00:05:13,680 
 We'll give you some contact details. But if you've got time, wouldn't you like to participate in one of the field trips? We've got a new group arriving here this afternoon. 
 00:05:23,560 
 I'd really appreciate that. I was going to ask if I could just take some photos of them, but this would be even better. 
 00:05:30,180 
 And my camera is not working right anyway. 
 00:05:32,900 
 Good. Well, why don't you come and have lunch with us and... 
 00:05:39,330 
 That is the end of part three. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part three.
