听力原文： Now I'd like to talk to you about the final exam. The exam will be held next Thursday, he last day of the exam week. Remember to bring two or three pens in case one is out of ink. Unlike the mid-term this test will not include multiple choice questions. It will consist entirely of essays. You'll have to answer three of the five essay questions. The exam will be comprehensive. This means you will be responsible for all of the subject matter we're covered in class. I would suggest you review the mid-term as well as the textbook and your class notes. The final will count for 50% of your grade in the course; the research project will count for 20%; and the mid-term 30%.

I'll be in my office almost all day on Tuesday of next week. If you run into any problem, please feel free to stop in. Good luck with your studying! I'll see you on Thursday.

However, if you observe the following simple guidelines you will stay and have a trouble-free seminar (研讨会):

1. Do not wear a money belt. This makes you an instant target.

2. Cameras of all kinds are a favorite with snatchers. Feel free to use them within the

Starehe Campus and the hotel grounds but not in the streets.

3. Ladies handbags are also a regular snatch. Avoid carrying one, and if you must, be alert and hold on to it tightly.

4. Jewellery and even glasses with valuable frames are also often targeted. Bear this in mind.

5. When in a vehicle keep the doors always locked, and the windows only slightly open --especially at traffic lights, junctions and in slow moving traffic.

6. Beware of street children, their begging often quickly transforms into something more unpleasant.

7. Stay with the main party all the time, and avoid wandering off on your own.

8. Finally, the best defence is to be alert at all times and conscious of your environment.

How to Present Business Cards

Business cards are less important in American culture than they are in Asian culture. But knowing the right way to handle business cards is a useful skill wherever you are.

Requesting someone's business card is a straightforward(直截了当的、坦率的)process. You need only say: "Do you have a business card？" or "May I have your business card？"

When you want to present your own card, you can say, "Here's my card. Feel free to call me if you have any other questions." Or, you might say, "Please send the information to this address. I look forward to hearing from you soon."

It's not polite to directly refuse a request from someone for your business card. Instead, you can say, "Sorry, but I'm afraid I'm all out at the moment." or "l forgot to bring them with me."

When you do receive a card, say "Thank you" and examine it briefly before putting it away.
