Sure. I just can t believe you still want to work with me after I messed up last time.

Part B: CONVERSATIONS
Q31-33 A conversation between two friends in a US university.
* Hi, Frank. What are you up to? Is that really a French grammar book?
* Well, I m trying to teach myself some French. For I wanna go to Montreal next semester, I don t want sound like just another tourist. Most of the people there are bilingual.
* Leave Boston to go to Montreal? I didn t know this university had a program in Canada.
* It doesn t. I m planning to take a short leave of absence from school so I can go there on my own. * What s the reason for this sudden interest in Canada?
* Well, actually I ve been thinking about going for some time now. I know someone there who s been wanting me to visit.
* A relative?
* An old friend of my uncle s runs a chemical engineering department up there. So I m hoping he can help me enroll in some interesting courses.
* If you want those credits transferred back here later on , you d better arrange for it before you leave. Don t forget what happened to Susan after she came back from Rome.
* Yeah. But her situation was different. I already have all the credits I need to graduate.
* So you ll be taking the courses just for the sake of learning.
* That will be a nice change of pace, won t it?
31. What was Frank doing at the beginning of the conversation?
32. What does the woman suggest that Frank do?
33. What does Frank say about his academic status?
34-38 A student asking questions in a physics lecture.
* It s important that you all understand that quartz heaters operate on a totally different principle than common convection heaters. Yes?
* Could you give an example of a convection heater?
* OK. But first you tell me what convection means.
* Uhm, well, you said in the last class, I think, that convection is the transference of heat by a liquid or a gas.
* Right. A heater is using convection when it warms the air in a room. And the air in turn warms the people and objects in the room. A hot water radiator, a stove and a forced air furnace are all convection heaters. A quartz heater, on the other hand, heats the objects and people in a room without heating the air. It does this by producing radiation heat that travels like light waves. When the quartz crystal in a heater vibrates at a particular frequency, its energy is turned into infrared radiation. The radiation is then directed at objects by means of a reflector. If that s clear, let s move on how room design can affect heating efficiency.
