There’s no (3)_____________________ upon definition of high-quality listening, but some (4)___________________include attentiveness, conveying understanding, and showing a positive intention towards the speaker. This doesn’t mean you can simply go through the motions— researchers have found that merely smiling and nodding at set (5)___________ doesn’t quite work.

Tiếng Anh THPT – Bảng A 2 Once the conversation begins, one of the most important things you can do is also the most obvious— try not to interrupt.

Summaries like this show the speaker that you're truly trying to understand them rather than just waiting for your turn to talk.

What did you think of the talk, then? CHANTAL: Hi Hugo. I thought it was good once I’d moved seats. HUGO: Oh- were the people beside you chatting or something? CHANTAL: It wasn’t that. I went early so that I’d get a seat and not have to stand, but then this guy sat right in front of me and he was so tall!
Tiếng Anh THPT – Bảng A 4 HUGO: It’s hard to see through people’s heads, isn’t it? Q21 CHANTAL: Impossible! Anyway, to answer your question, I thought it was really interesting, especially what the speaker said about the job market. HUGO: Me too. I mean we know we’re going into a really competitive field so it’s obvious that we may struggle to get work. CHANTAL: That’s right – and we know we can’t all have that ‘dream job’. HUGO: Yeah, but it looks like there’s a whole range of … areas of work that we hadn’t even thought of – like fashion journalism, for instance. Q22 CHANTAL: Yeah – I wasn’t expecting so many career options. HUGO: Mmm. Overall, she had quite a strong message, didn’t she? CHANTAL: She did. She kept saying things like ‘I know you all think this, but …’ and then she’d tell us how it really is. HUGO: Perhaps she thinks students are a bit narrow-minded about the industry. CHANTAL: It was a bit harsh, though! We know it’s a tough industry. HUGO: Yeah – and we’re only first years, after all. We’ve got a lot to learn. Q23 CHANTAL: Exactly. Do you think our secondary-school education should have been more career-focused? HUGO: Well, we had numerous talks on careers, which was good, but none of them were very inspiring. They could have asked more people like today’s speaker to talk to us. Q24 CHANTAL: I agree. We were told about lots of different careers – just when we needed to be, but not by the experts who really know stuff. HUGO: So did today’s talk influence your thoughts on what career you’d like to take up in the future? CHANTAL: Well. I promised myself that I’d go through this course and keep an open mind till the end. Q25 HUGO: But I think it’s better to pick an area of the industry now and then aim to get better and better at it. CHANTAL: Well, I think we’ll just have to differ on that issue! HUGO: One thing’s for certain, though. From what she said, we’ll be unpaid assistants in the industry for quite a long time. CHANTAL: Mmm. HUGO: I’m prepared for that, aren’t you? Q26 CHANTAL: Actually, I’m not going to accept that view.
