定位原文：we need two or three volunteers who can help the residents create documents.
解题思路：Well, on Monday evenings we organise computer training. 提示下文即将讨论与计算机培训相关的事，定位到we need two or three volunteers who can help the residents create documents。produce是对create的同义转述，二者都有“生成，制作”的意思。resident，居民。
Question 2

定位原文：We’ve got a keyboard, and someone who plays.
解题思路：Then on Thursday afternoons we have an informal singing class , 提示下文即将讨论到乐器，定位到We’ve got a keyboard, and someone who plays。has是对got的同义转述。keyboard, 键盘，键盘式电子乐器; informal，非正式的。
Question 3
答案：flowers
定位原文：Several of our residents enjoy learning about flowers, where they grow best, how to look after them, and so on.
解题思路：Then on Thursday mornings we generally have a session in our garden，提示下文将讨论每周四早上敬老院会做什么。定位到Several of our residents enjoy learning about flowers, where they grow best, how to look after them, and so on。听力中grow是在flowers之后出现的，听到flowers马上记下来。look after，照顾，照料。
Question 4
答案：tools
定位原文：
Do you have your own tools at the home?
We've got a few, but not very many.
解题思路：Do you have your own tools at the home? 提示下文将讨论到园艺所需要用的东西，注意这里填空题目问的是doesn’t have many，“没有很多”什么东西，定位到紧随其后的We've got a few, but not very many，可知园艺用的没有很多的就是tools，工具，听到询问者问的问题出现tools就要马上记下来。gardening，园艺;a few，有几个。
Question 5
答案：Saturday
定位原文：I’m busy the next couple of days, but would Saturday be possible? --Certainly. Just drop in any time during the day.
解题思路：Could you come in for an informal interview - later this week, maybe? 提示下文将会讨论面试时间，定位到--I’m busy the next couple of days, but would Saturday be possible? --Certainly. Just drop in any time during the day。go in是对drop in的同义转述，注意这里Saturday是在drop in之前出现的，而且drop in后面出现的是any time，对应填空题目中的any time，所以听到Saturday要先马上记下来。Cathy随后对John的问题用Certainly作了肯定回答，便可以确定Saturday是正确答案。drop in，顺便来访。
Question 6
答案：Mairead
定位原文：It’s M-A-I-R-E-A-D. Mairead.
解题思路：I won’t be working then, so you'll see my assistant, Mairead. --Sorry, how do you spell that? 提示下文即将说出名字的拼写，而且只念一遍，一定要边听边做笔记，定位到紧随其后的It’s M-A-I-R-E-A-D. Mairead。assistant，助理，助手。
Question 7
答案：Bridge
定位原文：And the road that Hilary Lodge is in is called Bridge Road, isn't it?
解题思路：And the road that Hilary Lodge is in…，提示下文将讨论这个敬老院的具体地址。定位到紧随其后的is called Bridge Road, isn't it? 注意这里是一般疑问句，听到Bridge要先写下来，后边对话者用That’s right做出了肯定回答，便可确定Bridge就是正确答案。
Question 8
答案：(the) 14(th)/fourteen(th)(of) May/May (the) 14(th), fourteen(th) /14.(0)5/(0)5.14
定位原文：I can certainly manage May 14th.
解题思路：Oh, one other thing you might be interested in - we're holding a couple of 'open house' days, and still need a few volunteers, if you're available，提示下文将讨论到志愿者能够在什么时候帮忙开展“开放日”活动。定位到I can certainly manage May 14th。open house days，开放日;available，有时间的。
Question 9
答案：park
定位原文：
Well, shall I show people where they can park?
Lovely.
解题思路：we’re expecting a lot of visitors. So one possibility is to help look after the entertainers, or you could spend an hour or so organising people as they arrive, and then just be part of the team making sure everything's going smoothly。这句话里提到很多志愿者可以做的事情，但是都没有出现给来访者指路去某地的这个信息，所以继续定位到Well, shall I show people where they can park?而且对话者用Lovely对这个问题表示了肯定。Park有两种词性，作名词时，意思是“公园”，作动词时，意思是“停车”;smoothly，顺利地。
Question 10
答案：newspaper
定位原文：
解题思路：One reason for holding the open house days is to get publicity for Hilary Lodge locally，提示下文即将谈到有机会与一个什么记者进行对话，定位到紧随其后的So you may find you have someone from a newspaper wanting to interview you。publicity，宣传，宣传效用;reporter，记者;locally，当地。
听力原文：
Listening Section 1
Cathy: Hello, Hilary Lodge retirement home, Cathy speaking.
John: Hello, my name’s John Shepherd. Could I ask if you’re the manager of the home?
Cathy: That’s right.
John: Oh, good. Hello, Cathy. A friend of mine is a volunteer at Hilary Lodge, and I’d like to help out, too, if you need more people. I work part-time, so I have quite a lot of free time.
Cathy: We're always glad of more help, John. Shall I tell you about some of the activities that volunteers get involved in?
John: Please.
Cathy: Well, on Monday evenings we organise computer training. We've got six laptops, and five or six residents come to the sessions regularly. They're all now fine at writing and sending emails, but our trainer has just moved away, and we need two or three volunteers who can help the residents create documents. Just simple things, really.
John: I’d certainly be interested in doing that.
Cathy: Great. Then on Tuesday afternoons we have an informal singing class, which most of the residents attend. We’ve got a keyboard, and someone who plays, but if you'd like to join in the singing, you'd be very welcome.
John: I work on Tuesdays at the moment, though that might change. I’ll have to give it a miss for now, I’m afraid.
Cathy: OK. Then on Thursday mornings we generally have a session in our garden. Several of our residents enjoy learning about flowers, where they grow best, how to look after them, and so on. Is that something you're keen on?
John: I’m no expert, but I enjoy gardening, so yes, I’d like to get involved. Do you have your own tools at the home?
Cathy: We've got a few, but not very many.
John: I could bring some in with me when I come.
Cathy: Thank you very much. One very important thing for volunteers is that we hold a monthly meeting where they all get together with the staff. It's a chance to make sure we’re working well together, and that everyone knows how the residents are, and what's going on in the home.
John: Uhuh.
[pause]
Cathy: Now obviously we'd need to get to know you before you become one of our volunteers.
John: Of course.
Cathy: Could you come in for an informal interview - later this week, maybe?
John: I’m busy the next couple of days, but would Saturday be possible?
Cathy: Certainly. Just drop in any time during the day. I won’t be working then, so you'll see my assistant, Mairead.
John: Sorry, how do you spell that?
Cathy: It’s M-A-I-R-E-A-D. Mairead.
John: OK, got that. It's not a name I’m familiar with.
Cathy: It's an Irish name. She comes from Dublin.
John: Right. And the road that Hilary Lodge is in is called Bridge Road, isn't it?
Cathy: That's right. Number 73.
John: Fine.
Cathy: Oh, one other thing you might be interested in - we're holding a couple of 'open house' days, and still need a few volunteers, if you're available.
John: What are the dates?
Cathy: There's one on April 9th, and another on 14th May. They’re both Saturdays, and all-day events.
John: I can certainly manage May 14th. I’ve got another commitment on April 9th, though.
Cathy: That would be a great help. We're having several guest entertainers - singers, a brass band, and so on - and we’re expecting a lot of visitors. So one possibility is to help look after the entertainers, or you could spend an hour or so organising people as they arrive, and then just be part of the team making sure everything's going smoothly.
John: Well, shall I show people where they can park?
Cathy: Lovely. Thank you. One reason for holding the open house days is to get publicity for Hilary Lodge locally. So you may find you have someone from a newspaper wanting to interview you. They’ll want to find out from two or three people why they volunteer to help at the home. We’re trying to get a TV station to come, too, but they don't seem very interested.
John: I don’t mind being interviewed.
Cathy: Good. Well, if you come in for a chat, as we arranged, we'll take it from there. Thank you very much for calling. John: My pleasure. Goodbye.
Cathy: Bye.
