Conversation Two
W: Good morning, Mr. Pitt. Do sit down.
M: Thank you.
W: First of all, Mr. Pitt, [23]I'd like you to tell me a bit about what you've been doing.
M: Well, I took four subjects in school: French, German, Chemistry and, uh, Art. Chemistry wasn't my cup of tea but Art has always been.
W: Art?
M: Well, I really wanted to study Art. [24]It didn't turn out like that because a friend of my father's offered me a job-he's an accountant in London. A quite big firm, you know.
W: I see. A firm of accountants. Interesting! [23]In your application, you say that you only spent nine months with this firm of accountants. Why was that?
M: It was nearly a year actually. Well, to be quite honest, I didn't like it. I just couldn't seem to get interested in the job although there were fairly good prospects 2. So I got a place at the Art College to do a three-year diploma course.
W: I see. Now, Mr. Pitt, what about hobbies and interests? Uh, what do you do in your spare time?
M: I like jazz, traditional and folk music. I don't play, of course, [25]but I go to quite a lot of concerts, and I go to the theatre occasionally 3 and act a bit myself. I'm in the local dramatic 4 society. I read quite a lot and I've done a bit of photography. Also, I've traveled a lot-hitchhiked all over Europe-last year, that was...
W: Very interesting, Mr. Pitt. I think that's all I wanted to ask about your back-ground.
答案解析:
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What might be the relationship between the woman and the man?
[C]解析:应聘面试对话的一个重要特征是:面试人主要提问,受试人主要回答问题,对话内容以学习背景、工作经历为主,有时提到工作职责与报酬。若了解这些特点即使没有听到对话中的关键词(我希望你谈谈你目前的工作;你的申请),也可以判断出答案。判断人物关系的情景题,准确的答题依据是对话中出现的关键词。
24. Why didn't Mr. Pitt study Art immediately after he left school?
[B]解析:男士明确说:“我没有学习艺术是因为我父亲的一个朋友给我提供了一个职位,他是伦敦的一个会计师。”It didn't turn out like that中的that指前一句中的study Art。故B正确。由选项可知,本题应当问“他”有什么想法、做了什么事,或想要做什么事。核心词是study Art,offer a job,accounting firm,interesting。听到对话中的I really wanted to study Art,可排除A,并由随后的否定结构和because引导的内容得到正确答案。because处出题。
25. Which is one of the things Mr. Pitt does in his spare time?
[B]解析:男士提到他虽然不演奏乐曲,但是他经常听音乐会,故B正确。frequently是quite a lot of的另一种表达。由动词的现在分词选项可知,本题问动作。A错在使用了a lot of,而原文说到拍照片时是说a bit of;C中的play与原文说的I don't play不符;D是地点错误,原文是说欧洲而是非洲。
