Hi, Uncle Dave. I'm calling about the family picnic this Saturday. Since the weather forecast predicts heavy rain, we've decided to move the party from the city park to Grandma's spacious garage.

[Q30] Why did the speaker decide to change the location of the family picnic?

Welcome to the first meeting of the Semester Book Club! This year, we want to try something new. Instead of everyone reading the exact same novel every month, we will choose a general theme—such as 'adventure' or 'science fiction'—and each member can choose any book they like within that theme. At our monthly meetings, we will take turns introducing our chosen books to the group. This way, we can discover a wider variety of stories. [Q31] What is the new rule for the book club this semester?

中文翻譯

歡迎來到本學期讀書會的第一次聚會！今年，我們想嘗試一些新的改變。我們不再讓每個人每個月都讀同一本小說，而是會選擇一個大主題——例如『冒險』或『科幻』——然後每位成員可以選擇該主題下自己喜歡的任何書。在我們的月會上，我們將輪流向大家介紹自己選的書。這樣一來，我們就能接觸到更多樣化的故事。[Q31] 這學期讀書會的新規則是什麼？

Are you thinking about upgrading your smartphone? Before you spend hundreds of dollars on the latest model, consider buying a refurbished one. Refurbished phones are pre-owned devices that have been thoroughly tested, repaired, and cleaned by professional technicians.

[Q33] According to the speaker, what is an advantage of buying a refurbished phone?

中文翻譯

您正在考慮換新的智慧型手機嗎？在您花費數百美元購買最新機型之前，不妨考慮購買整新機。整新機是經過專業技術人員嚴格測試、維修和清潔的二手裝置。它們的外觀和功能與全新手機一模一樣，但價格最多可便宜四成。此外，購買整新機也是減少電子廢棄物的好方法。根據說話者的說法，購買整新機有什麼好處？

To make the most of your day, try using the 'time-blocking' method. Instead of keeping a simple to-do list, schedule specific blocks of time for individual tasks on your calendar. For example, dedicate 9 AM to 10 AM solely to responding to emails, and 10 AM to noon to working on your main project. This prevents multitasking, which often reduces your productivity, and helps you stay focused on one thing at a time. [Q34] What does the speaker recommend doing to improve productivity?

中文翻譯

為了充分利用你的一天，試試看「時間區塊」法。與其只列出簡單的待辦事項清單，不如在行事曆上為各個任務規劃特定的時間段。例如，將上午 9 點到 10 點專門用來回覆電子郵件，上午 10 點到中午則用來處理你的主要專案。這樣可以避免多工處理，因為多工往往會降低工作效率，並能幫助你一次專注於一件事。[第 34 題] 講者建議採取什麼方法來提高工作效率？

Thank you for choosing the Riverside Hotel. As part of our green lodging initiative, we do not automatically change your bed sheets and towels every day during your stay. If you wish to have your towels replaced, please leave them on the bathroom floor. Otherwise, please hang them up, and we will know you are happy to reuse them. This simple action saves thousands of gallons of water each year. [Q35] What should guests do if they want their towels replaced?

中文翻譯
