What does Steve show his audience on his TV programmer? [br]
You will hear part of a radio interview with Steve Thomas, a young chef who has his own cookery series on television. For questions 11 to 15, choose the best answer A, B or C.
W(Interviewer): With us today is Steve Thomas, a 23-year-old chef who delights TV audiences with his imaginative cooking programme. Steve, what’ s the secret of your success?
Steve: Well, I think I’ m different from other TV chefs in that I want people to see how I prepare a dish from the word go, so I don’t present them with a dish that’ s half prepared already. If anything should go wrong during the programme, you know, suppose something gets burned, well, that’ s part of the experience. When they try preparing it themselves, then they’ 11 see the beauty of the finished product, but not on the screen.
W: So how did you come to get your own TV series?
Steve: I was working in a restaurant called the Gala in December last year when some people came to make a documentary about the place. I didn’ t even look at the camera. I was too busy making pasta and cooking fish. But the producer spotted me, and the following week they phoned and offered me a job. The Gala owner wished me all the best and let me go without complaint.
W: Wow’. Now, is it true that you come from a family of cooks?
Steve: Well, you could say that. I started cooking at the age of eight. My mum and dad have a restaurant and Dad used to do all the cooking back then. My mum was too busy looking after us. Dad insisted that if I wanted some money, I should work for it. And it seemed a lot more interesting to help out in the kitchen and see how things were made than to earn my money washing Dad’ s car.
W: You took a catering course at college. How did you like that?
Steve: At school I wasn’ t very good at anything much. At the time, my mind wasn’ t on anything other than cooking. I found sitting in a classroom trying to pay attention to things very, very trying. I managed to get into college, though, and there I was fine, because when it came to the actual cooking, I knew what I was doing. I realised that a bit of academic work didn’ t do you any harm either and I found it much easier when I was interested in the subject, and so I’ ve no regrets, really.
W: And now you have a TV programme and several cooks working under you. How do you get on with them?
Steve: Oh, I love working with them. On my programme everyone has to be really special. They need to have gone through college training before they even apply for a job with me. I suppose the problem is that fairly frequently I tend to raise my voice if they don’ t work efficiently , but I’ m just as likely to praise them if they do well. What I say to them is, ’ We want the audience to say we are the best, so we need to make a special effort.
W: Well, thank you, Steve. I look forward to trying some of your recipes.
选项
A、He found academic work rather boring.
B、He regretted not studying harder at school.
C、He felt confident when it came to actual cooking.
答案
C
解析
关于在大学里上课,Steve提到“I managed to get into college,though,and there I wasfine,because when it came to the actual cooking,I knew what I was doing”,由此可知当真正烹饪的时候他非常自信,故选C。
