Man: I'm working for a computer web designing company. It's a fairly large local company in Shanghai which specializes in designing websites for joint ventures and wholly owned foreign enterprises. Most of our clients are from Shanghai, but we also get a lot of clients from Shenzhen and a few from Beijing.
Woman: Uh…huh…and what are some of your responsibilities？ Tell me something about a typical day at work.
Man: Well, what I have to do is give the basic instructions to the junior staff about what I basically want to see in the web design, and so I have to ensure the job is done right. So, I guess you can say I'm in charge of the planning, but I do not do any of the actual manual work of programming. So most of the day I am either writing up plans, communicating them to the staff or checking through what they have done.
Woman: What are some of the things you like about your work？
Man: Well, it is creative and interesting and there is always a way to do it better. The best thing about my work is that it generally pleases the people when it is done well, so you can get immediate feedback. Also, to be frank, the pay is pretty good—I mean, you work hard but your salary at the end of the month is a lot better than what a lot of others are making.
Woman: That sounds very exciting. Are there any things about your job that you don't like so much？
Man: Well. do people in the computer field ever go home on time？ Not often. The hours are long and the deadlines are quite tight, because the customers often have no concept about how much actual labor is involved. They say they need it by a certain date, and will tell us directly that if we can't get it done they wilt go to our competitors. So it's not unusual for me to be working until midnight in my office, which my family doesn't exactly like.
Woman: Good.

听力原文： The engine of Margaret's car was not running smoothly. The spark plugs needed cleaning. Margaret could have done the job herself, but garages have special equipment that does such things very thoroughly.
Like her father, Margaret did not like being overcharged. She knew that garages do this sometimes. Sometimes they even charge for work they have never done. She told the repairman at the garage not to do any extra work, she wanted the spark plugs cleaned, and nothing more. Then she left, saying she would be back in a little while.
When Margaret came back, the repairman handed her a bill for ￡ 10. Margaret knew this was more than it should cost to have the spark plugs cleaned. Then the repairman said he had put new ones in. Margaret decided she was not going to stand for this, and began to get angry.
"But the plugs were worn out; what else could I do？" the repairman protested. "How long should these new spark plugs last？ More than a few months？" Margaret demanded. "Of come! Much longer than that!" The repairman said with great emphasis.
"Well, then, put the old ones back in. I had new spark plugs put in only a few months ago, and 1 had the job done here!" Margaret said.
(34)
A．Do extra work if necessary.
B．Change the spark plugs only.
C．Clean the spark plugs only.
D．Charge her more than ￡ 10 if necessary.

听力原文： My father was a very soft-spoken man, however, he had some very definite ideas about money and work. He believed that work was good for the soul and, besides, money could come in very handy. Papa also felt that the best way to get a job was to already have one.
As a teenager, I remember my father being delighted when my brother landed a job working for a major hamburger chain. My brother wasn't very happy about the job but desperately wanted the money necessary to buy his own ear. Although the position was as unglamorous as they come, my father felt that it was a good beginning. He believed that if you had a job, it would show other employers that you are worth hiring.
Even to this day, I never resign a position until I am offered another one. Papa's wise counsel has helped me to be gainfully employed ever since I graduated from college. Although papa died a few years ago,' his wisdom will be passed on to generation upon generation.
(30)
A．He was indifferent to his job.
B．He was happy about his job.
C．He was unhappy about his job.
D．He was satisfied with his job.
