听力原文：W: Good evening, professor My name is Alice Brown. M: Good evening, Alice. What is your question? W: I've been studying Spanish for some years. I go to Spain on holiday sometimes. I've learnt quite a lot of grammar and vocabulary. But I find it very difficult to speak, and when I went to Spain this summer I couldn't understand the Spanish people at all. I got really disheartened. M: Yes, it is a problem. How long have you been studying Spanish? W: About four years. M: Yes, how exactly? Go to an evening class, using tapes ... ? W: I've been going to an evening class and I've watched quite a lot of the BBC television programs. M: Oh, they're very good. Did you buy the BBC book? W: No, we use a different book in the class. M: Yes, I see, Alice. I always think that learning a language is rather like learning to drive. Now, you couldn't learn to drive a car by sitting in a classroom or watching television. I think what you need is a lot of practice in using the language. W: That's all very well if you live in the country where they speak the language, but I don't. M: Yes, I understand the problem. Though even if you live in the country where the language is spoken, you have to reach a certain standard before you are able to have conversations with the natives. I was thinking perhaps you might arrange with another student or students to have regular conversation practice. W: I see what you mean. Thank you very much, Professor. M: You are welcome, Alice. (20)
