Conversation 1
W: Please have a seat, Mr. Saunders. I received your job resume last week, and it was very impressed.
M: Thank you!
W: We are a small financial company trading mostly stocks and bonds may I ask why you are so interested in working for us?
M: Your company has an impressive reputation and I’ve always wanted to work for a smaller company.
W: That’s good to hear. Would you mind telling me a little bit about your present job?
M: I’m currently working in a large international company in charge of a team of 8 brokers. We buy and sell stocks for major clients worldwide.
W: Why do you think you are the right candidate for this position?
M: As a head broker, I have a lot of experiences in the stock market, I deal with the clients on the daily bases, and I enjoy working with people.
W: Well, you might just be the person we’ve been looking for. Do you have any questions?
M: Aha, if I were hired, how many accounts would I be handling?
W: you will be working with two other head brokers, in another words, you will be handling about a third of our clients.
M: And who would I report to?
W: Directly to me.
M: I see. What kind of benefits package do you offer?
W: Two weeks of paid vacation in your first year employment, you are also been entitled to medical and dental insurance, but this is something you should discuss with our Personnel Department. Do you have any other questions?

Conversation 2
M: Hey, Karen, you are not really reading it, are you?○○
W: Pardon?
M: The book! You haven’t turned the page in the last ten minutes.
W: No, Jim, I suppose I haven’t. I need to get through it, though, but I keep drifting away.
M: So it doesn’t really hold your interest?
W: No, not really. I wouldn’t bother with it, to be honest, but I have to read it for a seminar. I’m at a university.
M: It’s a labor of labor then rather than a labor of love.
W: I should say, I don’t like Dickens at all really, the author, indeed, I am starting to like the whole course less and less.
M: It’s not just the book,, it’s the curse as well?
W: Yeah, in a way, although the curse itself isn’t really that bad, a lot of it is pretty good, in fact, and the lecturer is fine, as to me, I suppose, you see, I want to do philosophy rather than English, but my parents took me out of it.
M: So the courses are OK as such, it’s just that had if been left to you, you would choose a different one.
W: Oh, they had my best interest and heart of course, my parents, they always do, don’t they? They believe that my job prospect would be pretty limited with the degree of philosophy. Plus, they give me a really generous allowance, but I am beginning to feel that I’m wasting my time and their money. They would be so disappointed though if I told them I was quitting.
22. Why can’t Karen concentrate on the book?
23. Why is Karen starting to like the course less and less?
24. Who thinks Philosophy graduates have limited job opportunities?
25. What is Karen thinking of doing?
