Nina I can barely pick up the pin yin (I doubt they're 100% right), let alone tone marks :P

--- Quote from: "cara.mel" ---But they don't miss 1/4 of the listening section, because they don't have the problem of hearing where the answer is, but having no idea what it means and can't find it in the dictionary. eg Q: what do they want to bring, I hear "wo men yao dai lai agjhrgkjsdgjk" and I feel like headdesking in frustration
Anyway, this is a nice place to ask questions :)
1. Context is person wanting to buy presents for people when he goes to china. One of the things he is going to bring I heard as 'dai shi ping'. In dictionary I found 'dai shu' = kangaroo which is v aussie, but I can't find the last character. I don't think he'd be bringing a live kangaroo over =/
2. Same passage. A place where you can buy things. 'mian shui jian'. Dictionary absolutely no help on this one
3. What is a 'lu xing dai' Something to do with traveling I assume
4. How do you write a) Xi ni, b) Xin xi lan (nz). I've discovered my dictionary doesn't have places in it and I don't think I will try writing them in somewhere =/
In that one, there were other things I didn't hear at all, not even when I cheated and played the passage a few more times XD

Maybe I'm not that bad. I've included tones.
1. Dai shi ping means bring ten bottles of something. (4th tone, 2nd tone, 2nd tone)
2. Mian shui (3rd tone then 4th tone) means No-tax, or duty-free. So a "mian shui jian" I would assume refers to a duty-free shop at an airport, which should make sense considering he's going to China.
3. "lu xing dai" is means luggage (3rd dot tone, 2nd tone, 4th tone)
4. "Xi Ni" means Sydney. It's 悉尼。 "Xin Xi Lan" is 新西兰， I think.

At school today, someone said that last year they looked at the names in the paper of people who got 40+. They said there were 3 non-asian names there.
I'm stuffed ^_^
