12、Listen carefully and answer questions 1 to 5. THOMAS: Where have you been, Nadia? NADIA: Browsing in the bookshop. THOMAS: What took you so long? You said you were only going to be away 5 minutes.

13、 buy anything? NADIA: I was tempted to get the latest novel by Dan Brown but its quite heavy and Id have to carry it around with me.

26、explore at your leisure and, if you cant take it all in today, you can come back again and again without any charge at all.

29、andbag, your other belongings such as large bags, coats and umbrellas will have to be left at the cloakroom. Please note that the museum has recently revised the regulations for the size of bags and parcels that it will accept in its cloakrooms. I think the maximum size is 40 by 40 by 50 centimeters

30、 with a maximum weight of 8 kilograms. The only exception to this is prams and pushchairs. There is a charge of one pound per item. The main cloakroom is to the left of the main entrance and there is another one at the north entrance. It may seem obvious but may I remind you also that you should set

31、 your mobile phone to silent or turn it off altogether while you are in the museum and not carry or consume any food or drink in the exhibition halls.

33、d the cloakroom immediately on your left and on your right is the museum shop. They have an outstanding range of postcards and souvenirs in there and its well worth a visit but perhaps best left till youre on your way out. Then youll know exactly what you want. The big room to the right of the entra

34、nce behind the shop is the reference library. Straight ahead of you, yes, the huge circular room, is the main reading room. If you decide to go in there, please keep noise to a minimum out of respect for the writers and scholars who use it for their research. The reading room is surrounded by what i

35、s known as the Great Court indeed, it used to be an open courtyard but you will see that it is now completely covered by a magnificent glass and steel structure. If you walk around the Great Court in a clockwise direction, on the west side, youll see the entrance to the long hall of Ancient Egypt wh

36、ich has an amazing collection of Egyptian antiquities. The gallery behind the reading room (directly opposite the entrance) is devoted to China and Southeast Asia.

39、morning. Now, what is it you want to discuss today? STUDENT: Good morning, Dr Reed. This assignment youve given us is the first psychology experiment Ive had to do and Im not sure where to begin or which steps to take. LECTURER: Well, conducting your first psychology experiment can be quite a compli

40、cated and confusing process but just remember that like other sciences, psychology uses the scientific method and bases its conclusions upon empirical evidence. STUDENT: What do you mean by “empirical“ evidence? LECTURER: Ah, well, empirical evidence is established by observation rather than theory.

41、 STUDENT: And the scientific method? LECTURER: Oh, yes, when conducting an experiment you need to follow a few basic steps. STUDENT: I know the first step is to come up with a research question or problem. LECTURER: Yes, a question that can be tested. STUDENT: How do I find an appropriate question?

42、LECTURER: I would suggest one of three methods. Firstly, you can investigate a commonly held belief or what we call “folk“ psychology. STUDENT: I see. So, I could examine the belief that staying up all night to study for an important exam can adversely affect test performance? LECTURER: Thats right.

43、 In that case you would compare the scores of students who stayed up all night with those of students who got a good nights sleep. STUDENT: I think I could do that. LECTURER: Well, alternatively, you might want to consider reviewing the literature on psychology. You know, published studies can be a

44、good source of unanswered research questions. Im sure youve read papers where the authors note the need for further research. STUDENT: So I would come up with some questions that remain unanswered? LECTURER: Correct. But there is a third source of ideas: just think about everyday problems and then c

45、onsider how you could investigate potential solutions. STUDENT: Okay.perhaps I could study various memorization strategies to find out which are the most effective. LECTURER: Thats the idea. Next, you need to define the variables-you know, anything that might have an effect on the outcome of your re

46、search. STUDENT: Yes, I remember we learnt about that last week. LECTURER: Yes. Thats right. Then you have to develop a testable hypothesis that predicts how the variables are related. STUDENT: For example: “Students who are sleep deprived will perform worse in an exam than students who are not slee

47、p deprived“? LECTURER: Exactly. Once you have developed a hypothesis you must carry out background research. STUDENT: I can use books, journals, online databases and websites? LECTURER: Yes, all of those. I covered the reasons for background research in last Fridays lecture, didnt I? What you have t

48、o remember at this stage is to take careful notes and generate a bibliography of your sources. STUDENT: Okay, Ive got that.then, Im ready to develop an experimental design? LECTURER: Well, again you have a choice. There are three basic designs and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. The pre-e

49、xperimental design does not include a control group so there is no comparison. What we call a quasi-experimental design does incorporate a control group but there is no randomization whereas a true experimental design has both control groups and random assignment to groups. STUDENT: Youve also told us about standardization of procedures is this where that comes in? being sure to compare apples to apples. LECTURER: Absolutely. Going back to your sleep dep
