纸质版TPO5 Conversation1（TPO Extra 2）

纸质版TPO5 纸质版TPO5 conversation 1 Narrator Listen to a conversation between a student and an admissions officer at City College. Student Hi. Can I ask you a few questions about starting classes during your summer session? Admissions officer Sure. Ask away! It starts next week, you know. Student Yeah, and I want to get some required courses out of the way so I can . . . maybe I can graduate one term earlier and get out into the job market sooner. Admissions officer That sounds like a good idea. Let me pull up the summer school database on my computer here . . . Student OK. Admissions officer OK, there it is. What's your student ID number? Student Oh, well, the thing is . . . I'm not actually admitted here. I'll be starting school upstate at Hooper University in the fall. But I'm down here for the summer, staying with my grandparents, 'cause I have a summer job near here. Admissions officer Oh, I see, well . . . Student So I'm outta luck? Admissions officer Well, you would be if you were starting anywhere but Hooper. But City College has a sort of special relationship with Hooper . . . a full exchange agreement . . . so our students can take classes at Hooper and vice versa. So if you can show me proof . . . um, your admissions letter from Hooper, then I can get you into our system here and give you an ID number. Student Oh, cool. So . . . um . . . I wanna take a math course and a science course-preferably biology. And I was also hoping to get my English composition course out of the way, too. Admissions officer Well all three of those courses are offered in the summer, but you've gotta understand that summer courses are condensed-you meet longer hours and all the assignments are doubled up because . . . it's the same amount of information presented and tested as in a regular term, but it's only six weeks long. Two courses are considered full time in summer term. Even if you weren't working, I couldn't let you register for more than that. Student Yeah, I was half expecting that. What about the schedule? Are classes only offered during the day? Admissions officer Well, during the weak, we have some classes in the daytime and some at night, and on the weekends, we have some classes all day Saturday or all day Sunday for the six weeks. Student My job is pretty flexible, so one on a weekday and one on a weekend shouldn't be any problem. OK, so after I bring you my admissions letter, how do I sign up for the classes? Admissions officer Wall, as soon as your student ID number is assigned and your information is in our admissions system, you can register by phone almost immediately. Student What about financial aid? Is it possible to get it for the summer? Admissions officer Sorry, but that's something you would've had to work out long before now. But the good news is that the tuition for our courses is about half of what you're going to be paying at Hooper. Student Oh, well that helps! Thank you so much for answering all my questions. I'll be back tomorrow with my letter. Admissions officer I won't be here then, but do you see that lady sitting at that desk over here? That's Ms. Brinker. I'll leave her a note about what we discussed, and she'll get you started. Student Cool. Narrator Listen again to part of the conversation. Then answer the question. Student So I'm outta luck? Admissions officer Well, you would be if you were starting anywhere but Hooper. Narrator What does the woman mean when she says this: Admissions officer Well, you would be if you were starting anywhere but Hooper.
