M: Oh, I just got some bad news today.
W: What happened, Tony?
M: Well, you know my job at the design studio?
W: Yes, and...
M:(9)Today the boss called me into his office and told me they had to lay me off. That means as of April 30, I’m out of work.
W: Oh! I’m sorry, you really like working there.
M: Yeah, well, it’s not all bad news. There’s still a small chance that the company will call me back in the summer if the work picks up. You never know what will happen. They may still need me then.
W: Oh, this is so sudden, isn’t it?
M: Well, sort of. Two other employees lost their jobs last month and I had a feeling I might be the next one in line. You know,(10)I have only been working there ten months, so I don’t have any seniority. And if it is going to lay someone off, it’s always going to be the newer employees first.
W: What are you going to do next?
M: As I said, I still go to work until the end of the month.(11)Starting in May, I plan to send out resumes and go on some interviews. Depending on the outcome of the interviews, I may take further actions.
W: Wow! Good luck, Tony!

B、He seems to be not qualified as a designer.
C、He has to do more difficult work at the studio.

解析 对话开始，Tony就说有个坏消息要告诉女士，在女士的追问下，男士说老板要让他下岗。由此可知，Tony即将面临失业。
