[聽力原文]
    M: Good morning, Can I help you?
    W: Yes, good morning, I’ve just got a few questions, I wonder if you can help me sort them out. M: I’ll see what I can do.
    W: Can you tell me when Sudeley Castle, Sudeley? We want to go there this morning.
    M: Yes,of course. Sudeley Castle, Sudeley, I think it’s open all day, someone asked me this a week or so ago. Here we are, I’ve got the guide, yes, it’s open from 11 in the morning until 5 in the afternoon, well not quite all day, but morning and afternoon.
    W: Eleven to five, OK, that’s great. Er, can you tell me how much it costs to get in?
    M: Yes, it costs £4.50 fot adults and £3.00 for children. It sounds a bit expensive but there’s a lot to do there. I think it’s worth the money.
    W: OK, now another question: what exactly is Snowshill Manor? What can you see there?
    M: Oh, it’s a museum, an absolutely fascinating collection of all sorts of things, like clocks and cabinets, and all kinds of swords and masks.
    W: Masks? Well, the kids will like them. Do you pay to get into this museum?
    M: Yes, you do, I think it’s about three pounds fifty.
    W: Is it open this time of year?
    M: Yes, it’s open until the end of September, so there are a few weeks before it closes.
    W: Right, we’ll try it. Thank you very much for the information.
    M: Enjoy your visit. Good-bye.

    題型分析:PETS-4級考試大綱明確指出,PETS-4 聽力測試的第一節(jié)為表格填空題。表格題主要測試考生聽寫的能力,考生做這類題目時,考生一定要注意題目所要求的字數(shù)限制為1個單詞。表格中的空白一般為人名、地名、數(shù)字、國籍以及其它一些實義名詞、動詞和形容詞等,而其他一些虛詞,像a, the可以不計算入內(nèi),比如說a flower可以計算為一個詞,但是a beautiful flower就是兩個詞了;而一些數(shù)字,比如電話號碼(33433438)或者一個大數(shù)10,000,000(ten millions)都只是算作一個詞;有時空白處要填入數(shù)字時,比如1991,有些考生執(zhí)意要將答案寫成nineteen ninety-one,也未嘗不可,但是一定要將每個單詞都拼寫正確,否則得不到分。表格中有時會出現(xiàn)一些a.m.或者一些錢幣的符號。這是命題者為了避免考生可能沒有注意到字數(shù)的限制,而將聽到的完整信息全部寫了下來,會被視為錯誤而扣分而專門設(shè)計的,因此,在填充表格時一定要注意表格的格式以及字數(shù)限制。
