女 : もしもし、インストラクターの山下です。

男 : あ、山下先生、お世話になってます。

女 : 来月のプロガムなんですが、…あれじゃ、だめなんです。休憩時間がないんですよ。だから、前と後のレッスンの調整が必要で…

男 : それで、他のレッスンの先生との交渉が、必要だったんですよね。

女 : ええ、だから、来月には間に合わないから、今月はそのままということで、お願いしたいんです。でも、もう、プログラム印刷しちゃって、会員さんに配布されてますよね。

男 : あー、すいません…。

女 : それは、仕方がないから、とりあえず、貼り紙とかして訂正の案内をしてください。

了解（りょうかい）: comprehension, understanding

Translation for Reference :

A man and a woman are talking on the phone. What will the man do first after that?

Woman : Hello, I’m Yamashita, the instructor.

Man : Oh, thank you for taking care of me, Professor Yamashita.

Woman : About next month’s program… It’s no good because there is no break. So we need to adjust the lessons before and after…

Man : So we need to discuss with the teachers of other lessons, don’t we?

Woman : Yes, it might not be in time for the next month, so I would like to ask you to leave this month as it is. But you have already printed the program and distributed it to members, haven’t you?

Man : Oh, I’m sorry…

Woman : Since it can’t be helped, anyway, please use stickers or something to instruct the correction.

Man : I’m sorry. I got it.

What will the man do first after that?

1.Distribute the program

2.Make correction stickers

3.Adjust the time

4.Remake the program

Instruction to practice:

Exercise format: Find the main information.

In order to understand and do this form of exercise effectively, you can apply the following steps:

With this form of listening, all answers given are information appearing in the conversation, so we have to distinguish them apart and choose the best answer.

In this exercise, the woman called the man to talk about the program that will be held next month. And she said that they couldn’t hold that program. Then the man asked:

[それで、他のレッスンの先生との交渉が、必要だったんですよね] (So we need to discuss with the teachers of other lessons, don’t we?) – answer 3. But the woman made another request [とりあえず、貼り紙とかして訂正の案内をしてください] (Anyway, please use stickers or something to instruct the correction.) and the man said [了解しました] (I got it.)

We must hear the two most important keywords : 貼り紙 (stickers), 了解 (understanding).

So the correct answer is answer 2．訂正の貼り紙を作る
