Go over the three choices before listening to the tape. Then circle the correct summary of the listening passage. ZY: Hello. I would like to speak to Liu Ming please. LW: I ’m sorry but he’s busy now. Who’s speaking? ZY: I’ m Zhou Yang of China Daily. I’d like to interview Liu Ming about his decision to go abroad to play professional tennis. LW: I know he likes China Daily so I am sure he’ll be happy to speak to you. But he’s very busy at the moment and he leaves Beijing at the end of this week. It may be difficult to make an appointment to see him. ZY: Well, I’m free tomorrow afternoon and all of Wednesday. Is it possible to speak to him then. LW: He’s going to see his family today and talk to some students tomorrow morning. Then at four o’clock he’ll go to a special banquet given by the leaders of the city. Maybe you can meet in the early afternoon. ZY: Perhaps we could talk over lunch. Our readers will be very interested in his views. LW: Well, he’s very happy about his decision to go abroad and hopes to return to China in a few years’ time. This experience will help him improve Chinese tennis. ZY: But many of his fans will be sorry not to see him play in the flesh. Waiting on TV is not quite the same thing. LW: Yes, but he need to learn more about tennis and to become an professional player is a good opportunity to develop his skills. On TV you can still enjoy his sparkling play. ZY: But if he never comes home we’ll have lost a great sportsman. LW: Yes, but I don’t think that he’ll stay abroad. He says he has no intention of doing that. ZY: I am glad to hear that. But what if he gets wonderful offer to stay? LW: I think you’ll have to discuss that with him yourself. ZY: So will 12 o’clock be OK? Where would be the best place to meet? LW: Yes, I think that time will be convenient and perhaps you could meet at the Garden Hotel. I’ll put it in his diary for Wednesday so he’s sure to come. ZY: Thank you so much. Goodbye.
