How's it going? I haven't seen you since graduation. 00:00:57,240 Hi, Bradley. Things are great. I've been traveling around Europe for the last month, but now that I'm back, I really need to find a job so I can start renting my own place. 00:01:09,960 Yeah, me too. My mom's driving me crazy. 00:01:14,920 I've got an interview on Thursday at a company called Power. I'm pretty nervous. 00:01:19,900 Don't worry. I'm sure you'll do great. 00:01:24,960 Bradley has got an interview at a manufacturing company called Power. So Power has been written in the space. 00:01:34,720 Now we shall begin. 00:01:37,020 You should answer the questions as you listen because you will not hear the recording a second time. 00:01:45,920 Listen carefully and answer questions one to five. 00:01:52,700 Oh, hi, Anna. How's it going? I haven't seen you since graduation. 00:01:58,140 Hi, Bradley. Things are great. I've been traveling around Europe for the last month, but now that I'm back, I really need to find a job so I can start renting my own place. 00:02:10,840 Yeah, me too. My mom's driving me crazy. I've got an interview on Thursday at a company called Power. I'm pretty nervous. 00:02:20,260 Don't worry. I'm sure you'll do great. Do you know what the job involves? 00:02:26,320 Well, the company has many sections, like sourcing materials and taking care of waste management, but I'm interviewing for a job in the warehouse section. 00:02:36,120 Wow! I bet that will be really interesting. 00:02:40,040 You should apply too. They still have a couple of jobs left. I found the, the job I'm interviewing for on their website. The reference is SW three five FT. 00:02:52,460 Thanks, Bradley. That's really nice of you. I'll apply later today. Is there a contact I could ask for? 00:03:00,630 The manager is Susan Thatcher, but you should contact her personal assistant. Her name is Jane Hitcher. 00:03:07,500 How do you spell the surname for me, please? 00:03:10,520 Yes, it's H-I-T-C-H-E-R. 00:03:16,780 Okay, great. I actually found a job listing for a place at Cotton, but the work hours don't suit me. You should look into it. 00:03:25,940 Ah, that's the grocery company, right? 00:03:29,880 I heard that the jobs in their distribution office are really well-paid. 00:03:33,680 The advertisement I saw was looking for people to work in the supermarket office, but the pay still looked very good. 00:03:41,900 Was there a description of the job? 00:03:44,000 The company is looking to increase their production of cakes and pastries, so you would be working as a cook in the bakery. After a month, they evaluate your performance, and there's potentially an opportunity for promotion to a management position. 00:04:01,020 That sounds like a great opportunity. I'll definitely look into it. Do you have the reference number? I'll write it down in my notebook. 00:04:09,220 Sure. I also have the reference for a job at the art museum. I'll give you the reference for that first. It's SGH six six seven. 00:04:20,420 Great. That's really near my house. And what's the reference number for the bakery job at Cotton? 00:04:27,260 The reference is ARW204. 00:04:32,220 I'll send them my application this afternoon. Who's the contact? 00:04:36,710 The name on the advert was Melanie, but it specifically said not to contact her in person. You should use the office as your contact, so just post your application there directly. 00:04:51,680 Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions six to ten. 00:04:59,280 Now listen and answer questions six to ten. 00:05:06,040 You seem to have found way more job listings than I have. Where are you finding them all? 00:05:11,400 At first, I was keeping an eye out for listings on the Internet, but all of the jobs listed there were in the city. I found that the best place to find local jobs was in magazine adverts. 00:05:23,740 Adverts? 00:05:25,090 You know, the section at the back of Job Plus magazine. 00:05:28,800 Where can I buy that? 00:05:30,400 You don't buy it. It's a free magazine. Just go to your nearest corner shop and buy the newspaper. The magazine comes with it. 00:05:39,460 Oh, I never realized. My mom buys the newspaper every week, so there's probably a copy lying around at home somewhere. I'll have a look for it when I get back. 00:05:49,580 All this job hunting is so stressful and time-consuming. 00:05:53,700 I can't wait until it's over either. I'm so tempted just to pay someone to do all this for me. 00:06:00,660 What do you mean? 00:06:02,020 I could go to a recruitment seminar or to an agency. 00:06:06,620 The agency sounds like a great idea. They charge a fee before taking you on as a client, though. Plus, only large corporations hire new employees through an agency. 00:06:17,640 Well, I think it would be exciting. 00:06:20,660 If you decide to go to an agency, make sure you take your student card with you. Your student status is valid for another month, and agencies often give students a ten percent discount. 00:06:31,640 Okay, great. I'll remember that. 00:06:34,760 All of the placements I've applied to require a referee. I've never had a job before, so I don't know who to ask. Who did you use? 00:06:43,940 I had a summer job working as a waitress, so I asked my old boss. I got on with him really well, so I trusted him to give me a good reference. If you haven't had a job before, you should ask one of your tutor. 00:06:58,580 That's a really good idea. I used to really enjoy my history classes with Mr. Fredericks. Perhaps I'll ask him. 00:07:06,420 I miss being a student. I don't feel mature enough to be earning money and finding a place of my own. 00:07:14,380 Yeah, university was great. Have you heard about their summer program? I'm thinking of applying for the art course. 00:07:21,980 That sounds like fun. Do you have to pay? 00:07:25,940 No, the tutors are running it as a research project. You just need to fill out a feedback form at the end. 00:07:32,200 Great. Well, I'll see you there. Good luck with your job hunting. 00:07:37,280 Thanks. Good luck to you, too. See you soon. 00:07:41,060 Bye. 00:07:44,820 That is the end of section one. You now have half a minute to check your answers. ## 题目与答案 ### 1. | Company`s name | Job details | Reference | Contact | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | POWER (manufacturing company) | ·work in a 1_____ section | SW35FT | Jane 2..... | | COTTON (grocery company) | ·good pay ·work - in 3..... office - in a 4..... - chance of promotion | 5..... | go to office | | Company`s name | Job details | Reference | Contact | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | POWER (manufacturing company) | ·work in a 1_____ section | SW35FT | Jane 2..... | | COTTON (grocery company) | ·good pay ·work - in 3..... office - in a 4..... - chance of promotion | 5..... | go to office | **答案**：warehouse|||Hitench|||supermarket|||bakery|||ARW204 原文定位：Well, the company has many sections, like sourcing materials and taking care of waste management, but I'm interviewing for a job in the warehouse section ### 10. ·Intend to take the art course ·Fill out a 10_____ form at end of the course ·Intend to take the art course ·Fill out a 10_____ form at end of the course **答案**：feedback 原文定位：You just need to fill out a feedback form at the end ### 2. | Company`s name | Job details | Reference | Contact | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | POWER (manufacturing company) | ·work in a 1..... section | SW35FT | Jane 2_____ | | COTTON (grocery company) | ·good pay ·work - in 3..... office - in a 4..... - chance of promotion | 5..... | go to office | | Company`s name | Job details | Reference | Contact | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | POWER (manufacturing company) | ·work in a 1..... section | SW35FT | Jane 2_____ | | COTTON (grocery company) | ·good pay ·work - in 3..... office - in a 4..... - chance of promotion | 5..... | go to office | **答案**：Hitcher 原文定位：The manager is Susan Thatcher, but you should contact her personal assistant.
