1 .Listen to a conversation between a student and the administrator in the Biology department
该句暂无译文！
2 .(woman) Hi, can I help you? (man) Hope so. I was supposed to meet with Professor Simmons, but she’s not in her office.
该句暂无译文！
3 .Do you know? (woman) Uh, I was just about to post a sign on her door.
该句暂无译文！
4 .She was unexpectedly called into a meeting. She’ll have regular office hours tomorrow, though.
该句暂无译文！
5 .(man) Oh, OK. It’s just that she was gonna give me information on some new internship that the Biology department’s planning to offer.
该句暂无译文！
6 .(woman) You mean for our golden eagle project?
该句暂无译文！
7 .(man) Yeah, that’s the one.
该句暂无译文！
8 .(woman) I’m doing the administrative work for that project. I’m preparing a page about it right now for our Web site, in fact.
该句暂无译文！
9 .(man) Cool! Well, Professor Simmons mentioned that in class yesterday. It seemed like a great opportunity.
该句暂无译文！
10 .I mean, I’ve been a bird watcher for years. I especially like raptors.
该句暂无译文！
11 .And I actually saw a golden eagle at a tree near the river last winter.
该句暂无译文！
12 . I’ve lived here in Minnesota all my life and had never seen a golden eagle in the wild before.
该句暂无译文！
13 .(woman) I know. Golden eagles didn’t use to visit our area on any regular basis.
该句暂无译文！
14 .But according to winter wildlife surveys done over the past few years, around sixty had begun hanging out around the cliffs overlooking the upper Mississippi river during the month of January.
该句暂无译文！
15 .(man) Wow! So, like, what’s the golden eagle project? I mean, what will the interns be doing?
该句暂无译文！
16 .(woman) Assisting field researches mainly, uh, helping them capture some of the eagles and placing radio tracking devices on them.
该句暂无译文！
17 .(man) Oh, I thought it was about, like, conserving their various seasonal habitats and breeding grounds.
该句暂无译文！
18 . (woman) We don’t know where this particular population of birds breeds or anything about their migration route for that matter.
该句暂无译文！
19 .(man) Hmm, wow, so how did the Bio department get involved?
该句暂无译文！
20 .(woman) When the winter survey showed a pattern, Professor Simmons and some other faculty thought the first step of understanding these birds would be to track their movements.
该句暂无译文！
21 . So they applied for a research grant and got it.
该句暂无译文！
22 .The grant’s from a consortium of agencies interested in protecting wildlife and in case you’re interested, about thirty thousand dollars.
该句暂无译文！
23 .(man) So the interns will get paid.
该句暂无译文！
24 .(woman) Most of the money is allocated for the radio tracking technology.
该句暂无译文！
25 .Whatever’s left over will go toward the researchers’ salaries.
该句暂无译文！
26 .However, interns can earn one course credit for every 70 hours they volunteer.
该句暂无译文！
27 .(man) That’s a lot of time, but the experience will look amazing on my resume.
该句暂无译文！
28 .(woman) Absolutely! Uh, say, given your interest in raptors, were you planning to attend the Speaking of Science lecture next Monday?
该句暂无译文！
29 . It’s on energy reserves in birds of prey. It’s scheduled for 7 p.m. in the Biology department lounge.
该句暂无译文！
30 . (man) That lecture series, uh, I’ve heard that mostly graduate students and faculty go.
该句暂无译文！
31 . (woman) Mostly, yes,
该句暂无译文！
32 .(man) But wouldn’t everything go right over my head?
该句暂无译文！
33 .(woman) Somethings maybe but it wouldn't hurt to go anyway, if this is a field you’re interested in.
该句暂无译文！
34 . (man) OK, I’ll think about it.
