New Zealand airport sets time limit on goodbyes.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was written by Charlotte Graham-McLay on October 22, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The full article used for this listening audio <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/new-zealand-airport-goodbye-hugs-time-limit-d6176082ffb6ab66e8d2f05dd590b8aa\">can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Emotional farewells are a common sight at airports, but travelers leaving the New Zealand city of Dunedin will have to be quick. A new three-minute time limit on goodbye hugs in the airport\u2019s drop-off area is intended to prevent lingering cuddles from causing traffic jams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMax hug time three minutes,\u201d warn signs outside the terminal, adding that those seeking \u201cfonder farewells\u201d should head to the airport\u2019s parking lot instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cuddle cap was imposed in September to \u201ckeep things moving smoothly\u201d in the redesigned passenger drop-off area outside the airport, CEO Dan De Bono told The Associated Press on Tuesday. It was the airport\u2019s way of reminding people that the zone was for \u201cquick farewells\u201d only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The signs had polarized social media users, De Bono said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe were accused of breaching basic human rights and how dare we limit how long someone can have a hug for,\u201d he said, adding that others had welcomed the change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three minutes was \u201cplenty of time to pull up, say farewell to your loved ones and move on,\u201d he said. \u201cThe time limit is really a nicer way of saying, you know, get on with it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A 20-second hug is long enough to release the wellbeing-boosting hormones oxytocin and serotonin, De Bono said. Anything longer was \u201creally awkward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But passengers need not worry unduly about enforcement. \u201cWe do not have hug police,\u201d De Bono said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visitors might, however, be asked to move their lingering embraces to the parking lot, where they can cuddle free of charge for up to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:46px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ielts-listening-multiple-choice-questions\"><strong>IELTS Listening multiple choice questions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the time limit for hugs in the Dunedin airport departure zone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. 15 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>B. 3 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>C. 20 seconds<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the result of a 20-second hug?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A.
