W: Good evening. King’s restaurant.
M: Good evening. I’m ringing about the job. I understand you have vacant?
W: Oh, yes.
M: I’d like to find out a few more details if I may.
W: Yes, of course. Can I take your name?
M: It’s Peter Chin.
W: Ok, Peter. Well, if you want to ask about the job and then if we’re both still interested, we could arrange you to come for an interview.
M: Great, thanks, [1]I’m afraid I missed the advert for the job but I heard about it from a friend.
W: That’s no problem at all. What would you like to know?
M: Well, urn, what sort of work is it—washing up?
W: No. [2]It’s answering the phone.
M: Oh, right, fine.
W: And not waiting at table.
M: That’ll be good. And how many nights a week would it be?
W: Well, we’re really only busy at the weekend.
M: So two nights?
W: Three actually, so it would work out 12 hours a week.
M: That’d be fine. It wouldn’t interfere with my studies.
W: Are you in the university?
M: Yes, first year Physics student.
W: Oh, right.
M: [3]Because I’m not an EU national, would I need a work permit?
W: [3]Yes, you would. Just get you tutor to sign it.
M: That wouldn’t be a problem if I were to get the job. Um, where exactly is the restaurant?
W: Well, we have two branches—the one we’re recruiting for is in Hillsdunne road.
M: Got that, thanks. Is it near a bus stop?
W: Yes, the nearest one would probably be just beside the library.
M: Oh, yes, I know it. That’ll be fine for me. And could I ask about the pay?
W: We’re offering 4.45 pounds an hour.
M: That’s very good. My last job was 3.95 an hour.
W: We feel it’s pretty good and we also offer some good fringe benefits.
M: Really?
W: [4]Well, we give you a free dinner, so you eat well.
M: Right. Better than hostel food.
W: We certainly hope so. And we also offer extra pay for working on national holidays.
M: Oh, that’s a really good perk, isn’t it?
W: Yes, we think so. And then because of the difficulties of getting public transport, if you’re working after 11 o’clock, we drive you home.
M: Oh, that’s good to know.
W: We’d certainly be interested in inviting you for an interview, if you’re still interested?
M: Oh, yes, certainly. Could I just also ask what qualities you’re looking for?
W: [5]Well, for this particular job, we want a clear voice, which you obviously do have. And you must be able to think quickly, you know.
M: Well, I hope I’d...
W: So, when could you come in for an interview? How about 5pm tonight?
M: That’s fine. See you tonight.
1. How did the man know about the job?
2. What is the main responsibility of the job?
3. Why does the man need a working permit?
4. What do we know about the fringe benefits of the job?
5. According to the woman, what quality does the man surely have?

选项 A、Making phone calls.
B、Washing up dishes.
C、Waiting at table.
D、Receiving phone calls.

答案 D

解析 ①四个选项都是动名词短语,注意对话里的相关内容。②男士问女士,“这份工作是做什么的,是洗盘子吗?”女士说,“不是,是接电话”,也不是“做侍应生”,所以D正确,D是录音中answering the phone的同义替换,同时也排除了B和C项。A项“打电话”则刚好是“接电话”相反的动作。
