## 题目原文

00:00:01,180 
 Now turn to Section two on page three. 
 00:00:06,860 
 Section two. 
 00:00:08,880 
 You will hear the store manager of a bookshop give a short talk to new staff. 
 00:00:15,000 
 First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to sixteen on page three. 
 00:00:50,500 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to sixteen. 
 00:00:57,880 
 Good evening, everyone. Thanks for coming in. This won't take long. 
 00:01:03,260 
 Because we have quite a few new staff members, we thought it would be helpful to call you all in while the shop's closed to give you a short tour. 
 00:01:13,200 
 After the tour, we'll introduce you to some of the book promotions we have this month. 
 00:01:18,960 
 Have you all got a copy of the map? 
 00:01:21,640 
 Okay, let's move to the store entrance. 
 00:01:25,600 
 I can point out each section to you quite easily from there. 
 00:01:31,360 
 There are the two cashiers straight ahead, and on our right, close to the wall, is a large area divided into sections. To attract students from the art college nearby, we decided to have books on art at the front of this section, and we're planning to include more texts from the prescribed book lists of local colleges in future. 
 00:01:54,760 
 In the middle of this large section is the home section. The books here range from design to renovation. And at the back of this section, we have a small selection of gardening books. 
 00:02:08,539 
 As this is a new section for us, at first we thought we'd locate it on its own on the other side of the cashiers, but we ultimately decided to have it at the back there, and it's well signposted. 
 00:02:23,200 
 Straight ahead and directly behind the cashiers, there's the magazine and newspaper stand, which is closest to us. Behind this, you can see two sections side by side, history on one side and biographies on the other. In our other stores, these sections are usually located at the very back. But sales haven't been great, so to try to attract more interest, we decided to make them more visible. Also within this central area, just behind biographies, we've placed our two fiction sections. The children's section is the larger area over on the right and the adult section, the smaller one, on the left. 
 00:03:09,960 
 You'll see over in the far left-hand corner of the store, we have our coffee shop, which has become very popular. 
 00:03:17,840 
 Behind this, running right along the back of the store, we've introduced a reading area. 
 00:03:24,700 
 We've added chairs and cushions to create a cozy atmosphere. And as you move around the store later, you'll see this comfortable seating idea in other parts of the shop. And finally, immediately to the left of the entrance, you'll see self-help books. These are here because we currently have a number of special offers connected with these topics. When the specials are finished, we'll relocate this section to behind the coffee shop. 
 00:03:55,080 
 Okay, I think that's it. I'll let you have a browse around in a minute. 
 00:04:03,400 
 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions seventeen to twenty on page four. 
 00:04:30,740 
 Now listen and answer questions seventeen to twenty. 
 00:04:37,940 
 Next, I'd like to quickly introduce you to some of the new books we have in stock. Firstly, Elizabeth Honey's written a new book called Penny Pinchers. It's a wonderful story set in early Australia, and I thoroughly recommend it. 
 00:04:55,080 
 It includes some beautiful drawings based on the artwork of the era. Next is The Running Boy. It's about a boy who gets himself into some difficult situations at school. I think Simon Darling, the writer, has done a fantastic job in his debut book. He's currently working on his second novel, a crime story aimed at the adult market. I'm sure that will definitely be worth waiting for. 
 00:05:22,720 
 The next book I have here is The Hidden Code, which won several prizes at the last book convention. 
 00:05:30,990 
 Marketed as a book for older children, it deals with realistic problems faced by young people today. Basically, it's a work of fiction. 
 00:05:41,380 
 It's something that should also be read by every parent, not just the younger members of the family. 
 00:05:48,740 
 And finally, my personal favorite, The Orange Moon. 
 00:05:54,380 
 This is the final book in a set of novels about the lives of a fictional group of friends living in Outback Australia. I hear this is being adapted to a movie suitable for the whole family, which I'm sure will be very popular. 
 00:06:12,100 
That is the end of section two. You now have half a minute to check your answers.
