M: Miss Ellen Chan? Good to see you. Thank you for coming in to the interview. Now, let me see. (11)You are applying for the vacancy we have for a Marketing Officer Trainee. Isn’t that right?
W: Yes, that’s right.
M: Mm. And you’re in the final year of a degree in Business Administration?
W: Yes, I expect to graduate in the summer of 2009.
M: With French as your major and Marketing as a minor, right?
W: No. (2)Marketing is my major—and French my minor. I’m looking for a career in Marketing, with my languages as a useful back-up.
M: Oh yes, sorry. Well now. I notice that you intend to complete your degree in three years instead of the usual four, and that you were able to persuade the university authorities to agree to that. Why did you decide to approach them in the first place?
W: Well, (3)the reason I wanted to complete the degree as quickly as possible is that I am older than most undergraduate students. I’ve had work experience before starting the degree, and I was anxious to be back into the working world as soon as I could. I made up my mind to show in the first term that I am well-organised and hard-working. I did this, and the university authorities agreed very readily.
M: Have you any regrets about that decision?
W: Well, no, no serious regrets. (4)But I should have liked to give more time to the dramatic and musical activities. I’ve had to cut down on these in my final year.
M: Now, you say in your letter that you are aggressive and ambitious. What exactly do you mean, Miss Chan?
W: (5)I mean that I really do want to test my abilities against very high standards. That’s why I want to work for your company. And I don’t mean that I bully people. I hope I never do that. But I am determined and I am direct—and most people like that and respond to it. They don’t feel threatened by it.
1. What position does Miss Chan apply for?
2. What is Miss Chan’s major in university?
3. Why does Miss Chen shorten her university period to three years?
4. What did Miss Chen give up in her final year of university?
5. What does Miss Chen mean by saying she is aggressive and ambitious?
选项 A、She is eager to overcome challenges.
B、She is unfriendly to her colleagues.
C、She is capable enough to pass the test.
D、She is threatened by tough issues.
答案 A
解析 Miss Chen在求职信上，把自己描述为aggressive and ambitious，她的意思是她想用高标准来检验自己的能力(test my ability against very high standard)，A项说她喜欢克服挑战，与Miss Chen所说的基调是一致的，故为答案。B、D项均为负面评价，可较易排除。C项利用了对话中的test来作干扰，此处实际上与通过考试无关。
