N2 listening practice lesson 17 – Tapescript:
お母さんが、子供に話しています。子供は何をそろえていますか。
女：あら、これ、お客さん用のじゃないわよ。この間、買ったのがあるのよ。はい、これ、はきやすいようにちゃんとそろえてね。
子供は何をそろえていますか。
1. お客さんの靴
2. お客さん用のスリッパ
3. お客さん用のおはし
4. お客さん用の歯ブラシ
Translation for Reference :
A mother is talking to her child. What is the child tidying up?
Mother: Oh, these are not for guests. I bought the others a few days ago. Here they are. Tidy them up properly to make it easy to wear.
Question: What is the child tidying up?
- Shoes of the guests
- Slippers for guests
- Chopsticks for guests
- Toothbrush for guests
Instruction to practice:
In order to understand and do this form of exercise effectively, you can apply the following steps:
1. Catch the topic and the question :
The situation taking place here is:
お母さんが、子供に話しています
A mother is talking to her child.
The question is:
子供は何をそろえていますか。
What is the child tidying up?
2. Note the main ideas:
In this form of listening, you need to focus on important key words to catch the topic of the story.
お客さん用 （おきゃくさんよう）for guests
この間（このあいだ）a few days ago
はきやすい: to be easy to wear
3. Choosing the answer:
Answer: 2．お客さん用のスリッパ
+ The mother said that [はきやすいようにちゃんとそろえてね] (Tidy them up properly to make it easy to wear). With the verb はく(to wear), it means to put on (or wear) lower-body clothing or footwear. So we can easily eliminate answer 3 and answer 4.
+ The mother also said that [これ、お客さん用のじゃないわよ] (These are not for guests) and [これ、はきやすいようにちゃんとそろえてね] (Tidy them up properly to make it easy to wear). In this situation, we can imagine that the child took the wrong thing, so the mother gave her the others. Therefore, what the child needs to tidy up are things for the guests, not something belonging to the guests.
So the correct answer is : answer 2. Slippers for guests
