## 题目原文

00:00:03,660 
 Section one. 
 00:00:05,660 
 You will hear a young woman phoning a friend who works for an airline to ask for advice about getting a job. 
 00:00:13,800 
 First, you have some time to look at questions one to five on page two. 
 00:00:44,220 
 You will see that there is an example that has been done for you. On this occasion only, the conversation relating to this will be played first. 
 00:00:57,880 
 Hello? 
 00:00:59,140 
 Oh, hello. Um, this is Ellie Fisher. We were at school together. 
 00:01:05,099 
 Oh, hi, Ellie. How are you? What are you doing these days? 
 00:01:09,880 
 Well, actually, I'm looking for a job, and I was wondering about applying to an airline, you know, looking after the passengers. And I heard you're doing something like that. 
 00:01:22,040 
 Yeah, I'm working as a cabin crew attendant. 
 00:01:28,560 
 The job mentioned is a cabin crew attendant, so attendant has been written in the space. 
 00:01:36,680 
 Now we shall begin. You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time. 
 00:01:45,700 
 Listen carefully and answer questions one to five. 
 00:01:52,900 
 Hello? 
 00:01:54,180 
 Oh, hello. Um, this is Ellie Fisher. We were at school together. 
 00:02:00,180 
 Oh, hi, Ellie. How are you? What are you doing these days? 
 00:02:04,880 
 Well, actually, I'm looking for a job, and I was wondering about applying to an airline, you know, looking after the passengers. And I heard you're doing something like that. 
 00:02:17,020 
 Yeah, I'm working as a cabin crew attendant. 
 00:02:20,480 
 Right. So what does that involve? 
 00:02:24,360 
 Well, you might have to give them the initial safety demonstration before takeoff, for example. You've probably seen that when you've made a journey by air. 
 00:02:33,080 
 Actually, I've never flown, but I'd love to. That's why I'd like a job with an airline. 
 00:02:40,080 
 Oh, right. And during the flight, you'd also be going round to see if anyone wants to buy anything. 
 00:02:46,600 
 So I'd be dealing with money? 
 00:02:48,600 
 That's right. You'd be responsible for that. And then, of course, you'd be serving meals and snacks and things. 
 00:02:55,180 
 Okay. So can anyone apply? 
 00:02:58,450 
 Well, there are certain requirements. You must be at least nineteen years old, and there's also a minimum height. That's 168 centimeters. That's to make sure you can reach the higher cupboards in the plane. 
 00:03:10,540 
 Right. I'm a hundred and sixty-nine centimeters, I think. 
 00:03:16,020 
 What about qualifications? 
 00:03:18,120 
 You need to show that you have a good level of English, that's written and spoken, and also maths. 
 00:03:23,920 
 Okay. Well, I passed my exams in both those subjects, fortunately. 
 00:03:28,400 
 Mm-hmm. And it's an advantage if you can speak another language, although for cabin crew it's not essential. 
 00:03:34,700 
 I can speak Spanish. I did that at school until I was sixteen. 
 00:03:39,300 
 Excellent. That'll be very useful. 
 00:03:42,100 
 And I'm pretty fit. I don't have any medical problems. 
 00:03:46,420 
 Okay. Oh, and can you swim? 
 00:03:49,660 
 Yes. 
 00:03:50,500 
 Good, because that's another requirement. 
 00:03:56,160 
 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions six to ten on page two. 
 00:04:12,000 
 Now listen and answer questions six to ten. 
 00:04:19,280 
 Now, if you're accepted, you'll get a six-week training course. 
 00:04:23,640 
 Right. 
 00:04:24,280 
 So that'll cover all aspects of the job, all the basic things you need to know, and then some special things, like what action to take if a passenger suddenly has some sort of illness while you're in the air, for example. 
 00:04:36,440 
 Right. I suppose you can't always count on a doctor being on board. 
 00:04:40,980 
 No. And then you'll have to do a lot of work during the training on becoming aware of the variety of cultures that your passengers may come from and the implications of that. That's really interesting, actually. 
 00:04:52,540 
 Okay. Well, I'd definitely like to apply. Um, what airline do you actually work for? 
 00:05:00,560 
 It's a small airline called Eurontas. That's E-U-R-O-N-T-A-S. 
 00:05:10,420 
 Is that N or M in the middle? 
 00:05:13,400 
 N for November. 
 00:05:14,860 
 Okay. 
 00:05:15,700 
 They're good people to work for. Have a look at their website. You can download the application form from there. 
 00:05:22,000 
 Right. I don't have much in the way of experience, though. 
 00:05:26,840 
 Well, what have you done since leaving school? 
 00:05:29,960 
 I worked in a supermarket for a bit on the information desk. I was helping deal with queries from customers. 
 00:05:37,720 
 Okay, put that down. That's one of the most important aspects of the job, in fact. 
 00:05:42,500 
 Oh, right. And last year, I also did some voluntary work as part of a team. Should I put that down too? 
 00:05:51,540 
 Of course. That's something else they'll be looking for, being able to work with others. 
 00:05:56,140 
 Right. 
 00:05:57,280 
 And a lot of airlines expect you to pay for your own uniform, but the good thing about this airline is that they provide it for you. 
 00:06:04,140 
 Great. Well, thanks so much, Greg. I really... 
 00:06:11,160 
 That is the end of section one. You now have half a minute to check your answers.
