N3 listening practice lesson 5 – Tapescript:
女の人は会社に電話しています。女の人に届いたファックスはどれですか。
女：もしもし。あ、課長、木村です。今、ヤナト工務店さんのほう終わったところです。
男：お疲れ様。
女：それで、遅くなってしまいましたので、社には戻らず、このまま帰らせていただいてよろしでしょうか。
男：うん、いいよ。あ、ちょっと待って。ファックス来てるけど、いいの？
女：あ、ヒガシ印刷さんからの見積書ですか？
男：いや、東京デザインの伊藤さんだって。
女：あ、地図ですね。来週の打ち合わせの。すみません。机の上に置いておいてください。
女の人に届いたファックスはどれですか。
Translation for Reference :
The woman is calling the company. What is the fax sent to the woman?
The woman: Hello. Ah, Manager, it’s Kimura. I have just finished with the Yanato engineering firm.
The man: Thank you very much.
The woman: So, since it’s a bit late, can I go home without returning to the company?
The man: Um, it’s okay. Ah, wait a minute, there is the fax coming, is it alright?
The woman: A, is it the price quotation of the Higashi printing company?
The man: No, it’s from Itou of Tokyo Design.
The woman: Ah, it’s the map, isn’t it? It is for the next week’s meeting. Please put it on the table.
Question: What is the fax sent to the woman?
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 and predict the content of the listening through picture
The situation taking place here is:
女の人は会社に電話しています
The woman is calling the company
The question is:
女の人に届いたワァっクスはどれですか。
What is the fax sent to the woman?
2. Note the main ideas:
ヒガシ印刷さん（ひがしいんさつさん）: The Higashi printing company
見積書（みつもり）: price quotation
東京デザインの伊藤さん（とうきょうでざいいんのいとうさん）: Mr. Itou of Tokyo Design
地図（ちず）map
来週の打ち合わせ（らいしゅうのうちあわせ）: the next week’s meeting
机の上（つくえのうえ）: on the table
3. Choosing the answer:
According to what we have noted, we can deduct that:
First, it is not the price quotation of the Higashi printing company (ヒガシ印刷さんからの見積書), which was indicated from the negation of the man (いや), but it is from Mr. Itou of Tokyo Design ( 東京デザインの伊藤さんだって), and it’s a map (あ、地図ですね).
So we choose answer 3.
