❓ Transcript

Transport survey

NARRATOR:

You will hear a man conducting a transport survey with a woman named Sadie.

NARRATOR:

First, you have some time to look at questions one to five.

NARRATOR:

Now listen carefully and answer questions one to five.

MAN:

Hello, could I ask you a few questions?

MAN:

We're carrying out a survey about transport.

SADIE:

Sure, no problem.

MAN:

Great.

MAN:

To begin with, what's your name?

SADIE:

Sadie Jones.

MAN:

Thank you.

MAN:

Could you also give me your year of birth?

MAN:

I don't need the full date.

SADIE:

Of course.

SADIE:

I was born in 1991.

MAN:

And your postcode?

SADIE:

It's D-W-3-0-7-Y-Z.

MAN:

Thanks.

MAN:

Is that part of Wells?

SADIE:

No, I live in Harburn, actually.

SADIE:

Wells is quite close, though.

MAN:

I know the area well.

MAN:

My grandmother used to live there when I was young.

SADIE:

It's a lovely place.

MAN:

Now, thinking about the journey you made today, did you come by public transport?

SADIE:

Yes, I took the bus.

MAN:

Right.

MAN:

And today is the 24th of April, correct?

SADIE:

I thought it was the 25th.

SADIE:

Oh, no, you're right.

SADIE:

It's the 24th.

MAN:

Good.

MAN:

What brought you into town?

MAN:

I notice you've been shopping.

SADIE:

I bought a few things, yes.

SADIE:

But I mainly came for an appointment with the dentist.

MAN:

Not the nicest reason for a trip.

MAN:

I hope there wasn't a problem.

SADIE:

Nothing serious.

SADIE:

Just a routine checkup.

MAN:

Do you usually take the bus when you come into the city center?

SADIE:

I do.

SADIE:

I gave up driving in because spaces are hard to find and the parking is so expensive.

MAN:

Right.

SADIE:

The bus is more convenient as well.

SADIE:

And the journey is only around half an hour.

MAN:

That's fairly quick.

MAN:

Where did you board it today?

SADIE:

At the stop on Klaxby Street.

MAN:

Let me check the spelling.

MAN:

C-L-A-X-B-Y.

SADIE:

Yes, that's correct.

NARRATOR:

Before you hear the rest of the interview, you have some time to look at questions 6 to 10.

NARRATOR:

Now listen carefully and answer questions 6 to 10.

MAN:

Overall, are you happy with the service or is there anything you complain about?

SADIE:

It's quick and convenient when it keeps to the timetable, but today it was late.

SADIE:

It was only 10 minutes, though it was still irritating.

MAN:

I can understand that.

MAN:

How do you find the timetable generally?

SADIE:

I mostly travel during the day, so it's usually fine.

SADIE:

But whenever I've stayed in town in the evening, perhaps for a meal or a film, I've had to wait ages because buses are much less frequent.

MAN:

Thanks.

MAN:

I'd like to ask about traveling by car now.

SADIE:

I own one, but I hardly use it.

SADIE:

I mainly drive to the supermarket.

SADIE:

My husband takes it to the golf club at weekends, but that's really all.

MAN:

And do you cycle?

SADIE:

I don't have a bicycle at present.

MAN:

Have you ever used one of the higher bikes in the city?

SADIE:

No.

SADIE:

I don't enjoy cycling in the center because of the pollution.

SADIE:

I would like to buy a bike, though.

SADIE:

It would be useful for commuting.

MAN:

What's stopping you from getting one?

SADIE:

I live in a second floor flat and there's no storage.

SADIE:

We'd have to keep it in the corridor outside.

MAN:

Understood.

NARRATOR:

That is the end of part one.

NARRATOR:

You now have one minute to check your answers to part one.

🔥 Answer key (đáp án và giải thích)

DW307YZ / DW3 07YZ

Giải thích chi tiết

❓ Câu hỏi: What is Sadie’s postcode?

🎯 Xác định loại từ cần điền:

Sau cụm hỏi What is và sau từ postcode cần điền một mã bưu điện.
Đây là dạng thông tin đánh vần chữ cái và số, nên cần nghe thật kỹ từng letter và number.
Với dạng này, học viên nên chuẩn bị tinh thần cho các âm dễ nhầm như D/B, W/U, O/0, Y/J.

✅ Đáp án đúng: DW307YZ

▶️ Bắt đầu nghe ở: câu hỏi “And your postcode?”

☺️ Giải thích đáp án:

Trước tiên, xác định từ khóa cần nghe là postcode.
Ngay sau câu hỏi “And your postcode?”, Sadie trả lời bằng cách đánh vần trực tiếp mã bưu điện.
Trong bài nghe, cô ấy nói: “It’s D-W-3-0-7-Y-Z.”

🧐 Lưu ý: ❌ DW307Y2 => dễ nhầm Z ở cuối thành 2 nếu chỉ nghe âm cuối không rõ. ❌ DB307YZ => dễ nhầm W với một chữ cái khác ở phần đầu mã bưu điện.
