题目内容

听力原文: Welcome to the first seminar of the International Hotel Hospitality and Management Course. My name is Garth Walters, and I am one of the Career advisors at the school. This afternoon, I intend to give you an overview of the core subject options available to you in this course. Each core subject prepare students for work in one of four major career areas: front desk and reception work, restaurant service, drink and bar service, and lastly, guest relations. For each area, we will explore the personal skill required, the professional qualifications needed and the career opportunities available.
To start with, we are going to take a look at front desk and reception work. In some way, the reception desk is both the face and nerve center of a hotel. It's the first point of physical contact with the client, and a close and professional relationship should be immediately struck up. So, what type of person is best suited for front desk and reception work? They are people who are self-confident, caring and sensitive, intelligent, and also able to work calmly in the glare of the public eye. Qualifications? Well, the ability to speak more than one language is naturally, a great asset in this job, as is clear diction and familiarity with switchboard operating systems, but these are not strictly necessary. Anyway, I encourage those who are interested to learn more skills to be more competitive.
Now, we'll move on to the second area—restaurant service. Well, a love of food and its presentation is a must for anyone considering this line of work. Also, life in a restaurant can be hectic, hot and very busy. The hours are long, and the competition for certain positions within the industry is tough, but, by completing the International Hotel Hospitality .and Management Catering core option, you will be able to enter restaurant service as an Assistant or Grade 3 chef. As a grade 3 chef, you will be responsible for the preparation of salads and desserts, stocking and cleaning the fridges, etc., and as you learn, you can progress to grade 2 and then, with time, grade 1 or chief chef.
Now, before I move on to the next 2 options, I want to say a few words about how you can best choose your core subject, but, er... are there any questions before I continue?
Questions:
23.What will the lecture discuss for each professional area according to the beginning of the lecture?
24.Which of the following expressions can best describe the reception desk in a hotel?
25.What is essential in front desk and reception work according to the lecturer?

MAN: Thanks.
WOMAN: Now, where would you like to go in New Zealand?
MAN: Well, I was hoping to do a bit of traveling around, actually. There are a few things I'd like to see and do before I go back home.
WOMAN: Right.
MAN: One thing. I really want to do is go to Christchurch. I have relatives living there that I can stay with-my mother's cousin-and I've heard it's a nice place.
WOMAN: Yes, it's a lovely city. And staying with relatives will help with the budget, of course,
MAN: The budget?
WOMAN: It will save you some money.
MAN: Oh right! Well, I m not too worried about that. I've saved quite a bit of money working in Australia.
WOMAN: Oh, that's nice. Good for you! Well, you know that New Zealand consists of two main islands, the North Island and the South Island, and Christchurch is on the South Island.
MAN: Is it? I was never very good at geography at school! Do you have a map I could look at?
WOMAN: Sure! Here we are.
MAN: Right. I see. And... Well... then I'd also like to spend some time in Auckland. And maybe I could do an English language course there. Can you organize that sort of thing for me?
WOMAN: Certainly. We'd be happy to arrange that. But bear in mind that Auckland is in the Noah Island.
MAN: Ok. And I'd also like to do some skiing or maybe even some snowboarding. I hear New Zealand is a great place for that.
WOMAN: Yes, absolutely, but you should go to Auckland first for your studies, and then you can get the ferry across to the South Island and take the bus down to the snow.
MAN: Oh, I don't like boats Very much. I'm not much of a sailor. I think I'd prefer to fly.
WOMAN: Right. Whit about joining a walking tour? That could be really fun.
