听力原文:M: Hello.
W: Hello, John. This is Florence Richardson. I'm sorry to phone you at this hour, hat I'm experiencing a sticky issue, and I can't think of anyone to get advice from besides you.
M: What's up?
W: Well, I moved to my present apartment a couple months ago and now I'm thinking of deferring my studies and planning to return to my parents' place next month. Today, I gave notice to my landlord but he said he's unable to give my deposit back since I have to stay a minimum of six months.

W: Yes, that's exactly what I did today. In the tenancy agreement, that's the timeframe. requested to notify the landlord.
M: Yes, that's the usual practice. Well, in the tenancy agreement, did it state that there's a minimum of six months stay or the deposit would be forfeited?
W: Not that I could remember.
M: Well, I have never heard of it either. It could be the landlord is trying to intimidate you. Perhaps you should pull your contract out and have a word with him.
W: Yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking of.
M: If the contract does not state the time frame, then he shouldn't impose it himself.
W: You are right, John. You just confirmed my reasoning.
M: Look, Sarah, I'll go with you to see the landlord tomorrow and if he still insists on forfeiting your deposit, we'll go to the small claim court to get your money back.
W: Thanks, John, I really appreciate that.

M: Well, I have never heard of it either. It could be the landlord is trying to intimidate you. Perhaps you should pull your contract out and have a word with him.
W: Yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking Of. But he said he spent time and money on advertisement to get a tenant and it wouldn't be fair on him if I just stayed for two months.
M: Well, that's not the Point, Florence. It doesn't matter how much he spent on advertisement, but the fact is he shouldn't force a tenant to stay if he or she doesn't want to. Besides, if the contract does not state the timeframe, then he shouldn't impose it himself.
W: You are right, John. You just confirmed my reasoning.
M: Look, Florence, I'll go with you to see the landlord tomorrow and if he still insists On not giving your deposit back, we'll go to the small claims court to get your money back.

听力原文:W: Good morning, Mr. Wang. Can you spare a few minutes?

W: I heard you just returned from a lecture tour in the U.S. I was wondering if you'd like to tell me something about campus study there.
M: Yes. Students receive their degrees when they have successfully completed the academic work required by their colleges. To get a B.A. or B.S., a foreign student needs 120 to 132 credits, depending on the field of study.

M: The minimum number of credits for the Master's degree with thesis is 24 semester hours, plus 6 hours for completing a thesis. Another type, the Master's degree without a thesis is 30 semester credit hours. Usually, the student in a nonthesis M.A. or M.S. program is required to pass a comprehensive examination.
W: What's the focus of graduate study and research?
M: It focuses on a specific field of knowledge. Graduate study is conducted through a variety of means, including lectures, seminars, independent advanced study, special reading courses and participation in research. Research programs leading to Master of arts, Master of Science, or Doctor of Philosophy degrees put special emphasis on the development of the student's ability for independent scholarly work and the creation of new knowledge through research.
W: Are there any time limits for the completion of degree requirements?
M: Students entering a Master's degree have fourteen consecutive semesters; students who are granted permission to continue studies towards the doctoral degree after completing an M.A. or M.S. have an additional ten consecutive semesters.
Students working on a doctoral program without a Master's degree have fourteen consecutive semesters, while those with a Master's degree have ten consecutive semesters to complete the requirements.
