Key words Task 1 Preparing to listen Part 1

introduction relevant contrasting the journals
Welcome to Gateway University library. My name’s Marie Macdonald. Today, I’m going to give you a general introduction to the library so that you can learn to use it effectively and efficiently. In order to use the library effectively, you have to be able to find reliable information from many different sources. You also have to know that the information is relevant for your purpose. In order to use the library efficiently, you have to be able to find relevant and reliable information quickly so that you do not waste your time. I’m going to cover two main aspects today. • I’ll start by contrasting the different sources of information and explain how you can decide which ones are more reliable.
• Then I’ll explain how we organize the books and journals in the library so you can find them easily.
1.2 Decide if you want to read the complete transcript, on pages 206 and 207, before or while you listen.
Task 2 Listening for the main idea
)CD1-14&15 Listen to the lecture. Which two items does Marie Macdonald talk about in this part of her lecture? Does she aim to show how these items are similar, or how they are different?
Task 3 Listening for detail
You used a table to take notes from the lecture, but you did not catch all the information. 3.1 Listen again and try to complete your table (Student A: see page 199, Table 1; Student B: see page 199, Table 2). Cover the other table while you work.
3.2 Work with a partner who has used a different table. Ask your partner questions to find the missing information in your table. Make sure you tell your partner the topic of your question before you ask the question. Use the features in the first column of the table to help you.
Example: The librarian mentioned purposes of information. Why is information put on the Internet?
Noticing language patterns
Language for organization The librarian introduced each part of her lecture by stating her main purpose and then mentioning the feature that she was going to use to contrast the Internet and the library. At the end of this part of the talk, she summarized the features to give a checklist, with some questions to use in order to decide if information is reliable. Here are some of the signposts she used:
Let’s think about the differences between … First, we can think about purpose … Then we can consider the viewpoint … Another important difference … is the author. So, to summarize what I’ve said …
