M: I enjoyed your lecture today, Dr. Beech. See you.
W: Goodbye. Oh, Jack?
M: Yes, Professor?
W: Have you got a minute?
M: Uh... sure. Have I done something?
W: No, Jack. Not at all. You’re doing very well indeed in my class, and, uh, I’ve noticed that you seem particularly interested in my research...
M: Thanks! Yes. It seems like fun to be working with primates. They’re very likeable animals, aren’t they?
W: Yes, they are. But they do take a lot of, well, looking after to keep them healthy and happy. I’ve got an assistant, Larry--you know him?
M: Oh, yes, I know Larry, Larry Easton.
W: Yes, that’s right. And he’s graduating in June. So I was wondering if you might be interested in, uh, taking over for him, taking his assistantship.
M: Oh! Uh. Yes. Yes! That’s something I would really like to do,yes.But,uh... I guess I should find out a little bit more about it. I mean, the hours, the time involved, and can I do the work?
W: Well. Have you got a little time right now? Shall we have a talk?
M: Uh, yes. my next class’s not till one. Sure.
W: Good. My research assistant is mostly in charge of maintaining the laboratory animals --preparing their food, cleaning their quarters, uh, feeding and watering them, of course, and, uh, just keeping an eye on things, you know--making sure they’re healthy and comfortable.
M: How many primates do you have in the lab?
W: Twelve right now.
M: Well, it sounds fine, I suppose. What do they eat? Fruit?
W: Yes, fruits, mostly --apples, grapes, pears --and also some vegetables. Lettuce, uh, carrots... we try different things sometimes. And they get mealworms for snacks. Larry’ll show you how to do it.
M: What kind of hours are we talking about, Professor?
W: Well, student assistantships are limited to fifteen hours a week --university regulations. The animals have to be tended every day, of course, but I’ll be responsible for Sundays and holidays. Would you be able to do that?
M: Sure, that sounds fine. My class load’s not so heavy now that I’m in third year. Oh. Uh... can I ask how much it pays?
W: Oh! Sorry, Jack. Of course! Fifteen dollars an hour, $225 a week. The university will withhold some for taxes and issue you a check at the end of each month. It should be for about $850, I think.
M: Great. That’ll help me out a lot with my expenses.
W: OK. Then I’ll talk to Larry, and we’ll see when we can get together, the three of us, and set up some time for you to start learning the routine.
M: Thanks very much, Professor. Thank you for thinking of me.
W: And thank you, Jack. I know I’ll be able to rely on you. See you.
M: See you.
This is the end of Conversation One.
Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.
1. Why does the woman want to talk to the man?
2. What is the primary task of the assistant?
3. What do the primates eat for snacks?
4. How much does the work pay after tax every month?
5. What will Jack probably do after the conversation?
选项
A、He will meet Larry.
B、He will fill out some forms.
C、He will go to have another class.
D、He will start learning his new tasks.
答案
C
解析
①选项都是关于He将要做的事情,听音时注意He最后的动向。②教授在对话快结束时讲到,自己会跟现在的助教Larry谈这件事,之后再约个时间三个人一起碰个面聊聊细节,设定时间让Jack开始学习相关工作。因此Jack不可能在对话结束后就去见Larry,也没有提到要填写相关聘用表格,也不会立刻就开始学习助教工作,因此选项A、B及D都不正确。而之前Jack也提到自己下节课一点钟开始,所以很可能对话结束之后Jack会接着去上另一门课,本题选C。
