16、r, there you are. Youve been ages. What kept you so long? peter: Im sorry Im so late, Sally. Have you been waiting long? sally: Oh, half an hour. But it doesnt matter. Ive had a coffee and Ive been reading this guidebook for tourists. Sit down. You look very hot and tired. What would you like to dri
17、nk? peter: Id love a really chilled mineral water or something. Will you have another coffee? sally: Yes, I will. The waitress will be back in a moment. Why were you so late? Did something happen? peter: Yes. You know I went to the bank to cash some travellers cheques? Well, the exchange rate was lo
18、oking healthy, but when I went to the teller, they told me the computer system was temporarily down, so they couldnt do any transactions. They said the problem would be fixed in a few minutes, so I waited. And then I started talking to another guy in the bank, and I forgot the time. sally: Oh, reall
19、y? Someone you met in the bank? Does he work there? peter: No, he was a tourist, from New York. His names Henry, and hes been here for a week, but hes moving on to Germany tomorrow. Hes an architect, and hes spending four weeks travelling around Europe. sally: Just like us! peter: Yeah, just like us
20、. He told me the names of some places where we should eat. Great food, and not too expensive, he said. Oh, and he also gave me this map of the bus system. He said he didnt need it any more. sally: Thats useful. Pity hes moving on tomorrow. Ah, heres the waitress. Lets order. Do you want anything to
21、eat, or shall we just have a drink? peter: Well, Im hungry, and weve got a lot of sightseeing to do, so lets just have a snack and a drink. sally: Sounds good to me! peter: Well, lets decide what well see today. I guess the best place to start is the Cathedral, and then the Castle. What are the open
22、ing times for those two? sally: Well, according to this guidebook, the Cathedral is only open from nine-thirty in the morning until midday. No, hang on. Thats the Cathedral Museum. The Cathedral itself is open morning and afternoon. The Castle is just open from one to five, so we cant go there until
23、 after lunch. I really want to spend some time in the Art Gallery, because theyve got this wonderful painting by Rembrandt that Ive always wanted to see. peter: What else should we see? sally: Well, the guidebook says the Botanical Gardens are worth spending some time in, and theyre open all day, fr
24、om eight to she, so we can go there any time. Id like to go to the Markets near the river too, but. oh . no, wait, thats only in the mornings, too. peter: As well as today and tomorrow, we can see some other places on Monday, you know. But I dont think the Markets will be open then: they only open o
25、n Thursdays, so weve missed them for this week. Maybe we should go to the Cathedral today because its Sunday tomorrow, and even though its open every day it might be more difficult to get in tomorrow because of the church services. sally: Thats true, but the Art Gallery isnt open on Sundays at all,
26、so well have to go there today. The Castles open every day except Mondays, so were OK there, and the Gardens of course only close at night. peter: Are all these places free or do we have to pay to go in? What does the guidebook say? sally: I think theres a charge for all of them except the Botanical
27、 Gardens. Oh, and the Markets, of course you dont pay to go in. peter: OK, well, it looks like our plan is this: well go to see the painting you like first, the Rembrandt, then have lunch and go on to the Castle after that, and then the Cathedral. sally: OK. It says here that the roof of the Cathedr
28、al is really beautiful. peter: Is that right? What I really want to do at the Cathedral is climb the tower. The view is supposed to be spectacular. sally: OK, well, thatll be more than enough for today. Then, tomorrow, lets go to the Botanical Gardens and have a picnic. I want to sit by the river an

30、your studies, or in your life outside the university. Lets take academic counselling. If youre confused about subjects or how to combine them in your degree, then we can advise you and discuss the career you are aiming for, so that you can see it all in context. We can also chase up your tutor if yo
31、ure not getting proper feedback on how you are getting on in your subject. Besides help with academic problems, you may also need personal counselling: if you think youre already under stress, well, just wait till classes begin next week. Youll have to start adjusting to teaching and learning method
32、s that may be unfamiliar to you, as well as the mounting pressure as the deadline for that first assignment creeps up on you. And of course, you have to cope with all this without your usual social network - you know, the social contacts, family and friends you could normally rely on for help. All o
33、f this causes anxiety. Studying overseas can trigger a personal crisis - you may have left a lot of what you might call unfinished business back in your own country, or you may have interrupted personal relationships or even sometimes have broken them off to come overseas, and so the student often f
34、eels lonely, unhappy, unmotivated and unable to concentrate on studying. Or there may be other things bothering you. Our resident chaplain can offer you spiritual guidance if thats what you want, or we can put you in touch with community groups that can provide you with social contacts and friendshi
35、p. What about exam stress? It affects nearly everyone to some extent, but especially overseas students like yourselves. There may be a huge amount of family pressure on you to succeed, and if you fail a subject or drop out of a course because its too difficult then your self-esteem can suffer. But i
36、ts not the end of the world if you dont pass an exam - I had to resit First Year Anthropology, so I can certainly offer you a sympathetic ear! Anyway, exam failure can lead to worrying changes in the way you normally behave. You may also be off your food, or you may have dietary problems because the
37、 local food is not to your liking and upsets you, and this can affect your health and studies. Glenda Roberts is our dietician in the Health Service and we can put you on to her. And we all have money problems, dont we? But remember, full-time students can get a low-interest loan of up to six hundre
38、d dollars to buy books and for similar study-related expenses. Thats right, and you can get double that amount if you cant afford an item of equipment you need for your course - a musical instrument, for example. And it doesnt stop there. When you move into a flat, starting-up expenses, including fu
39、rniture for it, can be covered by a loan through the Welfare Service - see Jill Freeman for details. Can we help you? Well, last academic year, in spite of staff cuts, we counselled two hundred and forty international students for a total of twenty-six hundred hours counselling, and, finally we won
40、all but just one of the twelve appeals that we launched on behalf of students. Not too bad for an understaffed service, dont you think? Thats all from me.

41、: Oh, there you are, good. Sorry Im a bit late - there was a long queue. So, have you worked out how to deal with this assignment then? mick: Not yet, weve only been here a couple of minutes ourselves. rosa : Can you just remind me what the task is exactly? pete: Well, there are two, no, three, part
42、s to it: first, weve got to write an essay about ways of collecting data. Then . rosa: Whats the title of the essay exactly? mick: Ive got it here: Assess the two main methods of collecting data in social science research. rosa: And how much do we need to write? mick: Fifteen hundred words. Thats fo
43、r the essay. Then, for the second part of the assignment, we have to choose one method of data collection, and carry out a small-scale study, making appropriate use of the method chosen to gather data from at least five subjects. rosa: And then we have to write a report on the study? pete : Thats ri
44、ght, of three to four thousand words. rosa: Did you get as far as discussing which form of data collection we should go for -questionnaire or interview, isnt it? mick: Yeah, I think we should use a questionnaire. Itll be so much less time-consuming than organising interviews, I reckon. Once weve agr
45、eed on the wording of it, we only have to send it out and wait for the responses. rosa: Yes, I think it probably would be quicker. But what did that article he gave us last week say about the quality of data from questionnaires? mick: Im pretty sure it recommended questionnaires as a source of highl
46、y reliable data. As long as you design the questionnaire properly in the first place, the data will be fine. rosa: No, Im sure it talked about drawbacks as well, didnt it? Something about the response rate and the problems you get if its too low. mick: Yeah, but we only need data from five subjects
47、anyway. rosa: I suppose so. Another drawback I remember it mentioned was that questionnaire data tends not to reveal anything unexpected, because it is limited to the questions fixed in advance by the researcher. mick: Come on, Rosa. This is only a practice. Its not meant to be real research, is it?
48、 rosa: Well, Im not sure about that. rosa: Maybe Id better go through the article again, just to be sure. Can you remember what it was called? mick: Sample Surveys in Social Science Research, I think. By Mehta. rosa: M-E-H-T-A ? mick: Yeah. And he also recommended a more recent book, called Survey R
49、esearch, by Bell, I think. Its in that series published by London University. pete: And if we tried to use interviews instead, I saw a book in the departmental library thatll be helpful: its called Interviews That Work, by Wilson, published in Oxford in nineteen eighty-eight. rosa: Right. Ive got a tutorial now. Can we meet up again later this week? What about Friday morning? pete: Suits me. Eleven oclock? rosa: Fi
