托福TPO/Official 46 Con 1听力原文What does the woman imply when she mentions the jazz festival?【新东方在线】

旁白：听一段一位学生和学生住宿办公室的一位职员之间的对话。

Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and an employee in the student housing office.

学生：你好！我是这里的一年级学生。

Student: Hi. I'm a first-year student here.

我住在宿舍，嗯，我喜欢我现在住的地方。

I, I live in the dorms, and I, well, I like where I'm living now.

这里很方便也很安静，但我开始思考我明年住哪儿。

It's convenient and quiet, but I'm starting to think about where I wanna live next year.

工作人员：好主意。作为二年级学生，你有更多自由选择符合你需求的地方。

Employee: Good idea. As a second-year, you have more freedom to choose a place that suits your needs.

学生：对！我想确定的是我能够及时申请到我想要的。

Student: Yeah! And I want to make sure that, well, that I apply in time to get what I want.

嗯，一个朋友告诉我关于校园里的这些共同兴趣社交住宅。

And, um, a friend was telling me about these common-interest houses on campus.

工作人员：我们有一个语音屋，一个生命科学屋，一个音乐屋……

Employee: Yes. We have a language house, a life science house, a music house...

学生：对的，音乐屋就是我感兴趣的。

That's the one I'm interested in, but, um, I'm not a music major.

虽然我确实会一门乐器，但我是历史专业的。

I do play an instrument, but I'm a history major.

音乐屋不只是为音乐专业的学生开放。

You see, that house isn't just for music majors.

它对任何对音乐感兴趣的人都开放。

It's for anyone who's interested in music.

学生：难道不是对所有人都开放吗？

工作人员：嗯，也许。但音乐屋有一个表演区域和练习房间。

Employee: Well, maybe. But the house has a performance area and practice rooms.

因此，选择在那里住的人需要能够容忍以下的事实：通常会有人在那里演奏乐器，播放广播，甚至在闲暇时间也不间断。

So people who choose to live there need to be open to the possibility that there's always gonna be someone playing something, an instrument, the radio, even at odd times.

你几乎总是会在那里听到音乐。

You're pretty much always gonna hear music there.

这可能会让一些人感觉到被打扰了。

学生：不会打扰我的。并且我很乐意可以有一个地方来练习我的萨克斯风同时还不用担心打扰别人。

Student: Doesn't bother me. And I'd love to have a place to practice my saxophone without worrying about disturbing people.

工作人员：嗯，它听起来像是很适合你。

Employee: Well, it does sound like it might be a good fit for you.

另外，这所房子也有社交俱乐部的功能。

And the house also functions as a social club.

学生：我知道在那里会有一些活动，但是除此之外的事情我就不知道了。

Student: I know they do activities, but I don't know much beyond that.

工作人员：嗯，例如，每个月有一场非正式的音乐会。

Employee: Well, for example, every month, I think it is, there's an informal concert.

任何住在这里的人都可以表演。

还记得上个月在大学公园里举行的大型爵士音乐节吗？

And remember that big jazz festival at University Park last month?

学生：当然记得。那场音乐会让我感到很震惊。

但是我没有把那场音乐会与音乐屋联系到一起。

Um, I, I didn't connect it to the music house.

工作人员：很多人都没有把二者联系起来。不管怎样，他们也表演了一系列的其它节目。

Employee: Not many people do. Anyway, they put on a whole range of other activities as well.

住在那里的人可以给你关于那些方面的更多信息。

Someone at the house could give you more information about those.

学生：所以，我怎样……申请在那里住的流程是怎样的？

Student: So, how do I... uh, what's the process for getting a room there?

工作人员：您需要填写一个申请表，并将其发送给住宿负责人。

Employee: You need to fill out an application form and send it to the house director.

The form's on the housing department's website.

他们只能接受约30%的学生申请。

They can only accept about 30% of students who apply.

学生：好的，这我就不知道了。

工作人员：因此，对于您的申请表，它需要包括一个个人声明、你为什么有兴趣住在这栋房子里、你可能会对整个群体有什么贡献。

Employee: So, for your application, it needs to include a personal statement, you know, why you're interested in living in the house, how you might contribute to the group.

这个申明很重要，因为它基本上决定了谁可以被同意住进这所房子。

That statement's really important, because it's basically how they decide who to accept into the house.

Why does the student go to see the woman?

According to the woman, why might some people not want to live in the music house?

What does the woman imply when she mentions the jazz festival?

Why does the woman mention the acceptance rate of applicants for the music house?

What information does the student need to include in his application?

Listen to a conversation between a student and an employee in the student housing office. 
M: Hi, I’m a first-year student here. I live in the dorms and I...well, I like where we're living now it's convenient and quiet, but I’m starting to think about where I want to live next year.

M: Yeah, and I want to make sure that, well, that I’ll plan time to get what I want. and a friend was telling me about these…um…common interest houses on campus? 
W: Yes, we have a language house, a life science house, a music house,… 
M: Yeah, the music house, that’s what I’m interested in. But I'm not a music major, I do play instrument, but I'm a history major. 
W: Oh, that's not an issue. You see that house isn't just for music majors. It's for anyone who is interested in music. 
M: But, isn't that everyone? 
W: Well, maybe, but the house has a performance area and practice rooms. So people who choose to live there need to be open to the possibility that there's always gonna be someone playing something, the instrument, the radio, even at all times. You're pretty much always gonna to hear music there. That might bother some people. 
M: Doesn't bother me. And I’d love to have a place to practice my saxophone without worrying about disturbing people. 
W: Well, it does sound like it might be a good fit for you. And the house also functions as a social club. 
M: I know they do activities but I don't know much beyond them. 
W: Well, for example, every month I think it is there's an informal concert. Any house resident can perform. And I remember that big jazz festival at University Park last month. 
M: Of course, it was amazing. The music was great. Um…I didn't connected to the music house. 
W: Not many people do. Anyway, they put on a whole range of other activities as well. Someone at the house could give you more information about those. 
M: So how do I… um, what's the process for getting a room there? 
W: You need to fill out an application form and send it to the house director. The forms on the housing department’s website. But don't get your hopes up too high. They can only accept about 30% of students to apply. 
M: Oh, wow. I had no idea. 
W: So for your application needs to include a personal statement. You know, why you're interested in living in the house, how you might contribute to the group, their guidelines on the form. That statement is really important because it's basically how they decided who to accept into the house.
