Start interpreting at the signal…and stop it at the signal…You may take notes while you are listening. Remember you will hear the passages only once. Now let’s begin Part A with the first passage.
Passage 1:
This book tries to help the inexperienced writer. The first chapter, which is meant as a kind of introduction, contains two main ideas.//
First, it says that a person writes best when he wants to write. Second, it says that anyone can write if he is willing to work hard at it and has access to writing tools and instruments.//
If someone says that he cannot write, he probably means that he either has no experience as a writer or knows of nothing to say at the moment.//
But once a subject or an idea comes alive in his mind, the words also begin to come to life and the person who claims that he is not a writer suddenly begins to act like one.
Passage 2:
Bristol is a truly beautiful, interesting and fascinating city. Beautiful parts and gardens leak onto interesting lanes and footpaths, while houses and buildings of old times stand magnificently on the hills of the city.//
But Bristol is much more than this; it is a modern city where the latest works in contemporary arts can be found and where the night-life is interesting and varied.//
Bristol is surrounded by beautiful countryside, rolling hills, and top class holiday resorts. Some of the country’s most fascinating tourist attractions—castles and palaces==are only a short drive away.//
Bristol has always encouraged the tourist industry and welcomed tourists from all parts of the world. There is superb choice of accommodation available and the city is proud of its many restaurants and cafes.

Passage 2:
中华人民共和国是全国各族人民共同缔造的统一的多民族国家。迄今为止，中国有56个民族。//
与汉族相比，其他55个民族人口相对较少，因此他们在习惯上被称“少数民族”。//
1990年中国进行了第四次人口普查，据统计，在全国总人口中，汉族人口约占92%，少数民族人口占8%。//
在长期的历史发展过程中，中华民族这个大家庭中的各族人民经过融合和迁移，形成了今天的分布格局。
