M: Miss Ellen Chan? Good to see you. Thank you for coming in to the interview. Now, let me see. You are applying for the vacancy we have for a Marketing Officer Trainee. Isn’t that right?
W: Yes, that’s right.
M: Mm. And you’re in the final year of a degree in Business Administration?
W: Yes, I expect to graduate in the summer of 2009.
M: With French as your major and Marketing as a minor, right?
W: No. Marketing is my major—and French my minor. I’m looking for a career in Marketing, with my languages as a useful back-up.
M: Oh yes, sorry. Well now. I notice that you intend to complete your degree in three years instead of the usual four, and that you were able to persuade the university authorities to agree to that. Why did you decide to approach them in the first place?
W: Well, the reason I wanted to complete the degree as quickly as possible is that I am older than most undergraduate students. I’ve had work experience before starting the degree, and I was anxious to be back into the working world as soon as I could. I made up my mind to show in the first term that I am well-organised and hard-working. I did this, and the university authorities agreed very readily.
M: Have you any regrets about that decision?
W: Well, no, no serious regrets. But I should have liked to give more time to the dramatic and musical activities. I’ve had to cut down on these in my final year.
M: Now, you say in your letter that you are aggressive and ambitious. What exactly do you mean, Miss Chan?
W: I mean that I really do want to test my abilities against very high standards. That’s why I want to work for your company. And I don’t mean that I bully people. I hope I never do that. But I am determined and I am direct—and most people like that and respond to it. They don’t feel threatened by it.

答案 B

解析 Miss Chen提到,她虽然并不后悔缩短大学时光,但她本应多花点时间在戏剧和音乐活动(dramatic and musical activities)上的,她最后一年中断了这些活动(cut down on those),dramatic and musical activities归纳起来就算是“艺术活动”,故B项正确。
