　　Section A

　　Short Conversation

　　11. W: Just imagine! We have to finish reading 300 pages before Monday! How can the professor expect us to do it in such a short time?

　　M: Yeah, but what troubles me is that I can’t find the book in the library or in the university bookstore.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　12. M: Do you think I could borrow your car to go grocery shopping? The supermarkets outside the city are so much cheaper. I’d also be happy to pick up anything you need.

　　W: Well, I don’t like to let anyone else drive my car. Tell you what, why don’t we go together?

　　Q: What does the woman mean?

　　13. M: Forgive the mess in here, we have a party last night. There were a lot of people and they all brought food.

　　W: Yeah, I can tell. Well, I guess it’s pretty obvious what you’ll be doing most of today.

　　Q: What does the woman think the man will do?

　　14. W: What time would suit you for the first round talks with John Smith?

　　M: Well, you know my schedule. Other than this Friday, one day is as good as the next.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　15. W: I was so angry yesterday! My biology teacher did not even let me explain why I missed the field trip. He just wouldn’t let me pass!

　　M: That doesn’t seem fair. I’d feel that way too if I were you.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　16. M: I really can’t stand the way David controls the conversation all the time. If he is going to be at your Christmas party, I just won’t come.

　　W: I’m sorry you feel that way, but my mother insists that he come.

　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　17. W: You’re taking a course with Professor Johnson. What’s your impression so far?

　　M: Well, many students could hardly stay awake in his class without first drinking a cup of coffee.

　　Q: What does the man imply?

　　18. W: Have you ever put a computer together before?

　　M: No, never. But I think if we follow these instructions exactly, we won’t have much trouble.

　　Q: What are the speakers going to do?

　　Long Conversations

　　Conversation 1

　　W: What sort of hours do you work, Steve?

　　M: Well I have to work very long hours, about eleven hours a day.

　　W: What time do you start?

　　M: I work 9 to 3, then I start again at 5:30 and work until 11, six days a week. So I have to work very unsocial hours.

　　W: And do you have to work at the weekend?

　　M: Oh, yes, that’s our busiest time. I get Wednesdays off.

　　W: What are the things you have to do and the things you don’t have to do?

　　M: Uh, I don’t have to do the washing-up, so that’s good. I have to wear white, and I have to keep everything in the kitchen totally clean.

　　W: What’s hard about the job?

　　M: You are standing up all the time. When we are busy, people get angry and sharp, but that’s normal.

　　W: How did you learn the profession?

　　M: Well, I did a two-year course at college. In the first year we had to learn the basics, and then we had to take exams.

　　W: Was it easy to find a job?

　　M: I wrote to about six hotels and one of them gave me my first job, so I didn’t have to wait too long.

　　W: And what’s the secret of being good at your job?

　　M: Attention to detail. You have to love it. You have to show passion for it.

　　W: And what are your plans for the future?

　　M: I want to have my own place when the time is right.
