You will hear a speech given by a man called George Dyson about Northfield Sports Complex. First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to sixteen. 00:00:41,680 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to sixteen. 00:00:57,360 On behalf of Northfield Sports Complex, I'd like to extend our warmest welcome to you all here this evening. I'm George Dyson, founder of Northfield Sports Complex. I am giving this speech today to celebrate a special occasion. We started the business exactly a decade ago, and today we have developed into a large firm with a sizable group of members. 00:01:21,640 We've also been nominated the most valuable company by Greentown at the yearly business awards, which will be held next week. As experienced and qualified reporters, you were invited here to experience and witness this historical moment of Northfield Sports Complex together with us. Situated within the campus of Greentown University, Northfield Sports Complex is a modern, refreshing, and fully equipped facility for sports of all kinds. As part of its commitment to the local community, Northfield Sports Complex is available not only to schoolchildren, but also to local residents. It offers a wide range of facilities, including a twenty-five meter swimming pool, paved walking and jogging paths, a well-equipped fitness gym, all-weather pitches, indoor courts for table tennis, tennis, and other sports, as well as a renowned skating rink. Different age groups can all find the right sports to participate in. That's why local residents enjoy working out here. As a result, natives here are healthier than most of the people within our nation. The whole town is very proud of having nurtured two world champions who were once both trained right here in our skating rink. Thus, it has become the ideal venue to learn to skate and have fun. 00:02:39,300 But what I take pride in most of all is the skating rink that has stirred the interest of boys and girls here in local schools to skate. Since opening, an increasing number of pupils have been paying regular visits to the skating rink. A new yoga classroom with trainers will be open next month for mothers with babies. They can bring their own yoga mat and work out together with their babies. This will be a great way for them to get healthy and meet other moms. 00:03:09,390 There will also be a brand new gym open to the pensioners in the near future. Just this month, a new swimming pool is open to all fitness levels with special offers for those without a job. Our complex is open daily from eight AM to nine PM, except on Thanksgiving and Christmas. We intend to extend our business in the coming year. A list of equipment will be put up for sale, ranging from exercising equipment like cardio machines to sports recovery and injury prevention facilities. Within our complex, we try our best to avoid injuries of any kind. We train knowledgeable staff to guide our clients through correct workout regimens. For those who want to further ensure workout safety, they are welcome to apply to be a member of our standing committee. They are responsible for revising the safety guidelines and supervising its enforcement. 00:04:10,260 Before you hear the rest of the talk, you have some time to look at questions seventeen to twenty. 00:04:37,280 Now listen and answer questions seventeen to twenty. 00:04:44,280 Now, I would like to introduce some of our most popular sports facilities here at Northfield Sports Complex. Our twenty-five meter swimming pool is the centerpiece of the complex, combining modern, bright, and airy surroundings with fully up-to-date changing facilities. The pool is excellent for learning how to swim, improving techniques, and of course, competing in school competitions. It is also bookable for private functions, including pool parties, where lifeguards are available. Next, we have the only climbing wall throughout the whole town. Many would see rock climbing as a type of extreme sport, exposing great risk to those who participate. But actually, under proper guidance and with close supervision by the coach here, it is a perfect sport for the youth to increase their flexibility and strengthen their muscles. I have to mention our skating rink once again. As our most popular facility, it has been prominently featured in a TV commercial we've released recently. There is no other skating rink larger than ours within the whole nation. Also, our state-of-the-art gym is an inspiring place to train and keep fit in relaxed and friendly surroundings. The techno gym equipment enables our clients to measure their performance. If you book a one-on-one trainer, he or she might suggest a future training plan and help you train more systematically. 00:06:18,300 That is the end of section two. 00:06:21,740 You now have half a minute to check your answers. ## 题目与答案 ### 11. 11 What is the purpose of the talk? 11 What is the purpose of the talk? - to welcome its new members - to commemorate its 10th anniversary - to celebrate the award it received recently **答案**：to commemorate its 10th anniversary 原文定位：I am giving this speech today to celebrate a special occasion.
