## 题目原文

00:00:01,100 
 Now turn to Section three on page five. 
 00:00:09,740 
 Section three. 
 00:00:11,700 
 You will hear two first-year art students called Max and Abby talking about their end-of-year art exhibition. First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-six on page five. 
 00:00:32,320 
 Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-six. 
 00:01:17,760 
 So, Abby, we have to prepare our individual displays for the end-of-year exhibition to showcase all the work we've done for the first year of our art degree. 
 00:01:28,920 
 Yeah, Max. I've been thinking about how to put it all together. I'm excited about letting my friends and family see all the stuff I've produced. 
 00:01:37,300 
 Me too. Actually, I'm really keen to see the work of the other students on our course. I mean, it'll be great to see all the finished displays. 
 00:01:46,680 
 But we've seen what they've been doing throughout the year already really. Anyway, what about getting feedback on our exhibition from our tutor? I wonder what that'll be like. 
 00:01:57,280 
 Mm, I'm a bit nervous about that part. 
 00:02:00,340 
 Mm. I hope our stuff ends up looking as good as some of the displays in last year's exhibition. 
 00:02:05,800 
 Yeah. Do you remember that display of printed textiles? Fantastic mixtures of silk and wool, all colored with natural dyes. 
 00:02:15,280 
 Yeah. I can't actually remember that. What sticks in my mind are those ten wooden reproductions one student made, all of different types of transport, little cars and trains and stuff. 
 00:02:27,520 
 Yes. It was really delicate work and much harder to do than if he'd tried to construct them out of metal. 
 00:02:35,900 
 So our tutor asked us to come up with a name for our display which reflects the work we've done. What have you gone for? 
 00:02:43,680 
 Well, most of what I've done has focused on the countryside, so I've been thinking of things connected to that. A lot of my larger pieces are views of farmland. That's not a particularly memorable name though. I've gone for Mother Nature in the end. 
 00:03:00,340 
 Mm. 
 00:03:00,720 
 Though I did think about the name Seasons, as the fields are shown at different times over the farming year. 
 00:03:06,840 
 Oh, okay. 
 00:03:08,240 
 Do you think it's going to be challenging putting our displays together? 
 00:03:11,880 
 Well, I've pretty much come to a conclusion about which pieces I'll include now. I'll have to miss out some of my preparatory drawings for the bigger pieces to make sure my best work fits into the space we've been allocated. I'm more concerned about how long it will take me to put everything in place. 
 00:03:28,660 
 We've got a day and a half. That'll be plenty. 
 00:03:31,500 
 Mm, we'll see. What about writing the summary of our work? It's for people who visit the exhibition to read, and I'm absolutely certain they will. It explains the reasons behind our work, and they'll want to know what it all means. We've got a strict word limit to stick to, but I've got so much to say, it won't be easy to say it in so few words. 
 00:03:54,360 
 Mm. So what about other organizational stuff? We'll need good lighting for one thing. The technical guys are doing that, aren't they? 
 00:04:03,660 
 Yeah. One thing to do is copy a load of comment forms so people can write what they think of the exhibition. Hopefully, they'll be kind. 
 00:04:12,540 
 I'm sure they will. I don't know about the journalists who've been invited, though. They might not be quite as nice to us. 
 00:04:20,829 
 Well, fingers crossed. You never know. 
 00:04:27,120 
 Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions twenty-seven to thirty on page six. 
 00:04:42,420 
 Now listen and answer questions twenty-seven to thirty. 
 00:05:02,240 
 So our tutor suggested visiting a few exhibitions to look at the way work is presented and to give us a few ideas about improving and displaying our own work. 
 00:05:12,860 
 Yeah. I liked the On The Water exhibition. The way the artist used the brush strokes in the oil painting to create a sense of movement was amazing. 
 00:05:22,340 
 Mm. It takes a long time to develop skill like that. Maybe we'll get there one day. 
 00:05:29,340 
 What I liked about the City Life exhibition was the fact that although the paintings themselves were of busy places, the display itself wasn't crowded at all. Perhaps the fact that the paintings were actually quite small was what created a more open feeling to the exhibition. 
 00:05:46,340 
 Yeah. Though the way they were arranged wasn't especially unusual. 
 00:05:50,680 
 And then there was the Faces exhibition. 
 00:05:53,040 
 Yeah. I mean, painting people's portraits isn't a new thing. But what I did like was the way the artist managed to reproduce the exact tones of the skin and hair of the people in the pictures. 
 00:06:05,360 
 And the last exhibition we went to see was Moods. Mm, I expected that to show emotions, people laughing, crying, whatever. But it was about plants. You don't tend to think of trees and flowers having feelings. 
 00:06:21,840 
 [chuckles] Well, I'm not sure they do, but it certainly seemed that way in the pictures. Not the most obvious choice of subject, that's for sure. 
 00:06:31,060 
 Anyway, I guess we'd better get on with it. 
 00:06:36,640 
 That is the end of section three. You now have half a minute to check your answers.
