Conversation One

W: So, have you found a job yet?

M: No, but, I have a few leads, so things are lookingup.

W: What kind of job are you looking for?

M: Actually, I want to work for a Web hostingcompany.

W: What would you do there exactly?

M: Well, [19]Id like to work in technical support, you know, helping customers resolvecomputer-related problems with their sites. And you know Im a good communicator.

W: So, hows the pay for that sort of job?

M: Well, most people I know start out with a very reasonable salary; you can earn payincreases depending on your performance.

W: So, what about benefits?

M: Oh, the benefits are pretty good. They provide health insurance, two weeks of paidvacation a year, and opportunities for advancement.

W: Well, is there long-term job security in a job like that?

M: Uhh. [20]Thats hard to tell. I mean, the Internet is booming, and these kinds ofcompanies are sprouting up everywhere, which is a good thing, [20]but just like the dot-comera, you never know how long things will last.

W: Well, have you ever thought about going back to school to improve your job skills?

M: What are you suggesting?

W: You know, [21]you did drop out of college.

M: I know, I know, but I dont know. Im just seeing my current job at McDonalds as a stepup. I dont have the resources at the moment to do that; however, the job I am looking at willpay for some classes after I have been with the company for six months.

W: Well, it looks like you have things planned out this time.

M: If I last that long.

Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

19. In which field is the man desiring a job?

正确答案:C

分析:听到女性问及有关信息时,注意男性的回答,男性说他想做technical support的工作,故答案为C。

20. Whats the future of the Internet industry according to the man?

正确答案:A

女性问及security方面的信息时,男性回答:“非常难说。因特网进步非常快……但就像网络业务年代一样,不了解状况能持续多长时间。”同义概括为A。

21. What do we learn from the conversation about the mans educational background?

正确答案:B

分析:四个选项都是关于He的学业情况,听时要注意。女性问男性“你有没想过回学校?”后来还揭了男性的底:you did drop out of college。可见男性没读完大学,但中学毕业后也经受过肯定的高等教育。所以B正确。
