听力原文: Today I'd like to talk to you about group discussions which, in an academic context, are usually known as "seminars" and "tutorials". I want first of all to deal with the meanings of these terms; then I want to cover the aims of the group discussions; next I'll go on to look at some problems that learners of English are likely to experience in work of this kind; and finally I'd like to offer a few pieces of advice.
First, then let's look at look at the meanings of the terms "seminar" and "tutorial". Nowadays it's becoming more and more difficult to draw a precise distinction between the meanings of the two words that all lecturers would be willing to accept. The traditional differences which axe still accepted by many lecturers are firstly the size of the group and secondly, and perhaps more importantly, their purpose.
A tutorial was usually for a small number of students, say, between two and five, whereas a seminar was attended by a large group, say, between ten and fifteen. In a tutorial, a lecturer of tutor adopted the role of the expert and asked and answered questions related to his most recent lecture. In short, the tutor took the lead; he in fact "tutored".
The purpose of the seminar, on tile other 'hand, was to provide an opportunity to discuss a previously arranged topic. Often one student presented a paper; that is, gave a short talk which served as an introduction to a more general discussion. The other students may have been asked to read a number of chapters of a book, related to the talk, so as to be in a better position to participate in the discussion.

听力原文: In the past, messengers often carried letters from place to place. In Europe, it was not until the 15th century that a regular system of postal service between towns was started. The messengers traveled on horseback, and fresh horses were always kept ready at different places along the main roads where the messengers stopped. Each of these stops was known as a past and today we still keep the name "Post office".
In the old days, such postal deliveries were only for important people. The messengers would sometimes carry letters for ordinary citizens, but the cost was very high and the messengers were often careless. And so in the 17th century in Britain, a service was started for everyone. At first this postal service carried letters only between a few very busy towns, but year by year it grew larger and better.
Today, there are post offices in every country. Letters can be sent by post in almost any village, anywhere. In Britain, the postman who delivers the mail may walk or ride bicycle for a short distance. Post offices also use ninny other ways to carry mail -- by train and ship and by airplane, depending on the fastest and easiest way.
