N3 listening practice lesson 19 – Tapescript:
男の人が看護師と話しています。看護師の説明と合うものはどれですか。
女：じゃあ、明日は胃の検索ですからね、朝10時に来てください。今夜9時からは、食べたり飲んだりしないように。
男：え、今夜からもう、食べられないんですか。
女：つらいわねえ。今日はもう早く寝ちゃったら？
男：お茶ならいいですか。
女：お茶も水も飲んじゃいけませんよ。
看護師の説明と合うものはどれですか。
Translation for Reference :
A man is talking to a nurse. Which one fits the explanation of the nurse?
Woman: Well, tomorrow is abdominal examination day. Please come here tomorrow at 10 am. And do not eat or drink anything from 9 o’clock tonight.
Man: Eh? I can’t eat tonight anymore?
Woman: It might be hard for you. Why don’t you go to bed early today?
Man: Can I drink tea?
Woman: You can’t drink either tea or water.
Which one fits the explanation of the nurse?
Instruction to practice:
In order to understand and make this type of lesson effectively, you can apply the following steps:
1. Catch the topic and the question :
The situation taking place here is:
男の人が看護師と話しています
A man is talking to a nurse.
The question is:
看護師の説明と合うものはどれですか。
Which one fits the explanation of the nurse?
2. Note the main ideas:
In this form of listening, we should focus on the information relating to the explanation of the nurse to compare with the answers.
After listening, we have a few keywords as following:
朝10時（あさ１０じ）10 am
今夜9時から（こんや９じから）: from 9 o’clock tonight
飲む（のむ）: to drink
食べる（たべる）: to eat
早く寝る（はやくねる）: to go to bed early
お茶（おちゃ）: tea
水（みず）: water
3. Choosing the answer:
According to what we have noted, we can deduct:
+ The nurse suggested that the man should go to bed early (今日はもう早く寝ちゃったら), it is not the thing that the man must do => we eliminate answer 2
+ Can’t drink either tea or water from tonight. (お茶も水も飲んじゃいけません) => we eliminate answer 4
+ The nurse told the man not to eat or drink anything (食べたり飲んだりしないように), she didn’t ask him to eat => we eliminate answer 1
+ The nurse told the man not to eat or drink anything from 9 o’clock tonight (今夜9時からは、食べたり飲んだりしないように)
So we choose answer 3.今晩９時からは食べたり飲んだりしてはいけない
