问题 The current title of Tracy is______. [br]  
Jack(M)Tracy(W)
M: Hi, Tracy! It’s so fine to have you here. What are you doing recently?
W: Hi, Jack. Well, I was busy dealing with my interview. You see, it’s not so easy to get an opportunity for a promotion.
M: Right. How did your interview go?
W: Pretty well. I don’t know if I’ll get the promotion or not, but I feel good about it.
M: Congratulations in advance. If you get the promotion, what will your new title be?
W:(1)If I get the promotion, I will be a senior engineer instead of an assistant engineer.
M: Will you get a pay raise, too?
W: I hope so. Whenever you are given added responsibilities, you should get a promotion.
M: That makes sense. Who interviewed you?
W: My boss.
M: What kinds of questions did she ask you?
W: She asked me about my ability to work in a team and what I thought a good boss should be.
M: The second one sounds rather difficult to answer. What did you tell her?
W:(2)I told her that I’m an excellent team player and that a good boss should treat male and female employees equally.
M: Those are good answers. How did she react?
W: She told me that even when I become a senior engineer, I’ll have to work with the assistant engineers as a team.
M: She’s a tactical leader, I think. What do you think about her as a boss?
W: She’s pretty easy to get along with. She listens to her employees and treats everyone equally. (3)She is considerate and generous. But sometimes she’s also aggressive and ambitious, too. It’s rare for one to be such a perfect combination. And I think she’s a born boss, and a successful example for me to follow.
M: You’re lucky. Not everyone has such a great boss!
W: That’s true. She’s highly esteemed among everyone at my company.
M: When you find out if you get the promotion or not, let me know.
W: I will do. What about you? How is everything going?
M: Oh, God! It’s really a disaster. I’ve just made a serious mistake, and on the edge of unemployment.
W: Oh, no, what’s the matter?
M: I failed to audit the accounts properly. I was too careless to examine the data, and just input the figures my supervisor told me. I’m afraid it will cause great loss and I’ll have to hunt for another job. You see, it’s so difficult to find a position in such a recession.
W: Calm down. It’s not the doomsday.
M: I don’t know what I’m going to do! It’s going to be impossible to make ends meet if I lose my job!
W: Don’t worry. I don’t think you’re going to lose your job over just one mistake.
M: It was a rather big mistake.(4)When you work as an investment adviser, one small mistake can cost the company millions. It is reasonable for a boss to dismiss such an employee.
W: But it wasn’t just you who was involved, right? You were only doing what your supervisor told you to do.
M: That’s true, but my supervisor is very dishonest. There’s no reason he needs to tell our boss the truth. I’m sure he will tell our boss that it was all my fault, and there’s nothing I can do about that. My boss won’t believe me if I tell him the truth. Anyway, not everyone is so lucky to have a good boss as yours.
W: If that, let’s think realistically about what might happen. How much money do you have in your savings?
M: I have enough to live off for about 3 months. But I really don’t want to spend my life savings on just living! I’d rather invest my money somehow.
W:(5 - 1)Well, that’s good. If you lose your job, you can just move in with my brother until you find another job. That will save you plenty of money. I think he’ll be glad to help you.
M:(5 - 2)That’s very generous of you. I guess that would work.
W: If you lose your job, you just have to go for a few months without buying all the junk you usually buy. If you live frugally, you’ll save plenty of money.
M: I guess working with so much money has made me rather greedy. Maybe losing my job would be a good thing!
W: Well, maybe it will be a blessing disguise.
M: I hope so.
