听力原文： Speaker One
Man: This is a great chance and just what this region needs. The unemployment here has been very bad and we've been very lucky to be chosen for this new factory. And this position would be a step-up for me... a real advancement, so to speak. It could lead to me having my own department one day and a senior position. Especially if I pass the certificate in Human Resources which I've almost finished. If I'm appointed, I'd have to draw up a list of everyone who's applied to the company and then help with the selection process. It helps knowing the area and I've already got quite a few contacts and I told them that all of my experience has been working with people.
Speaker Two
Woman: I didn't apply for this job. They wrote and asked me to come for an informal interview. It must have been because I've had considerable experience with the accounting system they use and I've done a lot of work on pricing and costing of new lines at a high level. They'd like me to start to work very soon. It's important to be in at the beginning when you deal with the money side, to make sure everyone stays within the budget constraints which you decide. But I'm not really sure about it at all. I've got a good job now and I'm happy where I am and not really looking for a change. It needs a lot of thought as they are a good company. Well, I've got the weekend ahead to think about everything.
Speaker Three
Man: Yes, I know a lot about this company. They are very good and I've had contact with them before, at various trade shows and advertising conferences in this country. It would be good to work for them. I would be doing the same sort of thing, except on a bigger scale. It's not a promotion or anything. The same grade and money but.., more presentations and a lot of consumer research. Although I like my present job, this would give me an opportunity to get around a bit more, to visit their overseas offices. In fact they are launching a big campaign soon in ten different countries and they'd like me to coordinate some of it. It would be a great chance and I accept it.
Speaker Four
Woman: It's going to be a successful venture. I can feel it and I'd really like to be involved. But I expect there were a lot of very well qualified applicants, what with all the word processing courses around and the number of computers in people's homes. But I've got all the keyboard skills. I'm fast and accurate and I can spell well. I've been doing the job for over ten years, since the days of typewriters. This is the same job but I think it would be interesting.., and I like the area. I'd really enjoy living here. Well, you can only hope. You never can tell with interviews.
Speaker Five
Man: Yes, indeed. I was very impressed and I must say that... Well, perhaps it's best not to say anything. But I do feel confident about it. There were some interesting questions, but my line of work is very technical so you know it or you don't. It's not as simple as people think. It's not just a question of checking the product at the end of a conveyor belt but setting up a continuous system which monitors every aspect of the production process. This is the only way to get an end product without fault. I hope I get the job.

听力原文： Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "Early Money". I'm going to tell you something about money used in the early days. Honestly, we know little about how early people came to use money, but we do know some of the things that have been used as money. In early times in some European countries, salt was very difficult to get. It was used as money. In some parts of Asia, tea was used as money. The American Indians used nuts and other things. Maybe the most common money of all was an animal of some kind. In some places today, cows are still used as a kind of money. So you see, things highly valued by everybody may serve as money. The Chinese were the first people to use coins as money. Oh, sorry, you don' t know the word？ Well, it is spelled C-O-I-N. Here are some coins of the past. You can come over and have a look.
The speaker wants to tell the listeners about________.
A．how money came into being
B．the kind of things which served as money in the past
C．the fact that the Chinese people were the earliest users of money

听力原文：Speaker One
Woman: I organise IT projects, and hire other companies or individuals to do the work. With one, the contractor told me halfway through that it couldn't be done the way I'd planned it, and it would be overdue. I took a chance that he was wrong, but he wasn't, and it really inflated the cost of the project, because of course the contractor's staff had to be paid for longer. When my boss found out, I only managed to keep my job by suggesting that I email him weekly progress reports on any future projects, and notify him of any potential or actual problems. It really helped me too, because I think if you make a mistake, you shouldn't just say, 'It won't happen again', you have to make sure it doesn't.
Speaker Two
Man: I worked for a publisher where you were allocated an art editor per issue from a studio team. I always got the useless one, because everyone else refused to work with him: he was so bad he should never have been given the job in the first place. In the end, I suddenly snapped, and instead of having a quiet word with my boss, as I should have done, I dashed off a furious memo about him to the head of his department. Well, that put me in the wrong, everyone was very angry with me, and I came very close to resigning. It certainly taught me not to rush into things: what seems the obvious course of action in the heat of the moment isn't necessarily the most effective one.
Speaker Three
Woman: When I worked in import-export, the best thing I ever did was getting myself transferred from one section to another. It happened because I'd calculated how much we should charge a customer for some goods we were going to import on a regular basis, and didn't allow for our agent's commission. When the invoices started coming in, I realised we were making a loss. I tried to increase the price to the customer without telling my boss, but, in the end, I had to admit what I'd done, and I think that's the only reason I didn't get the sack. It gave us quite serious cash flow problems for a Jew months. But it made me realise that I really wasn't interested in that side of the work.
Speaker Four
Man: I used to work in a catering company, and was promoted to Catering Manager, but at first I just kept on messing around with the rest of my staff. My duties included doing the rounds when everyone else had left. One evening, one of my staff put several thousand pounds' worth of frozen food in a fridge by mistake. I should have discovered this, but I didn't, and the next day the food was ruined. When I told my boss, I treated it as a joke, and put the blame on the person who'd made the mistake. My boss made it clear that I was ultimately answerable for what my staff did, and if my attitude didn't change I'd be out of a job. Needless to say, it did change, and quickly.
Speaker Five
Woman: I used to work in a PR agency, doing publicity for lots of celebrities, and we were always too busy to pool our knowledge. Eventually, I instituted a working lunch once a week, to swap the latest information. I'd realised that we needed something like that when I was publicising one of our clients, and gave a journalist from a national newspaper the phone number of the person I thought was the client's booking agent. What I didn't know, but some of my colleagues did, was that the client had changed agents, so the wrong one then got hundreds of calls. He was furious, so were our client and her new agent, and so was my boss. All I wanted was to hide away somewhere until it all blew over.
