W: Simon, how does it feel to be retired?
M: Well, not so bad.
W: How have you been spending your time?
M: I’ve been spending more time with my family. I’ve also travelled a bit, you know, off season when everywhere is less crowded and hotels cost less.
W: Great.
M: You know I haven’t stopped work completely,
W: Yes, could you tell us more about this?
M: I’m on a scheme that’s called phased retirement. I had a six-month break from work, after that I could apply for project work with the company I used to work for.
W: How does the scheme work?
M: Well, it’s a trial at the moment. Instead of hiring temporary staff, the company advertises posts on its website that retired employees like myself can access.
W: What sort of works advertised?
M: Well, all sorts of things, really. Administrative work and more specialized work, the sort of thing 1 can do. Some of the projects can last five or six months, and others can just be a couple of days. I can decide more or less when to work, so I can manage my own time.
W: I can see it’s good for you. What does your company get out of this?
M: Well, I still have all my old contacts at work, so I know who to contact to get something done. The company gets flexibility, too. Once the job’s over, that’s it. I’m not on their books any more.
选项
A、He can manage his time more flexibly.
B、He can renew contact with his old friends.
C、He can concentrate on his own projects.
D、He can learn to do administrative work.
答案
A
解析
Why does Simon find his retired life enjoyable?
主题题。考查对话开头。女士询问男士(Simon)的退休生活如何,男士说“Well,not so bad”(还不错,挺好的),之后又说“I have been spending more time with my family.”(我可以拿出更多的时间跟家人在一起)。所以[A]是正确答案。
