听力原文:It is my firm belief that men and women are equal. I cannot accept that some role

s are more suitable for males than for females. As far as I am concerned, men and women are equally capable of learning all skills.

In my view, parents should share household tasks and childcare. I think the division of labor should depend on individual circumstances. It seems to me that we can learn most things if we try. It's unwise to suggest that women should take care of most of the practical aspects of childcare because they are more patient, more gentle and more skilled at it. Men can be just as skilled in these areas if they have practice!

Of course, I acknowledge that men are often physically stronger than women and are therefore better at doing certain types of physical work. And I don't deny that one individual may be better at cooking, for example, than the other. But I reject the suggestion that cleaning, washing and ironing are women's work. I strongly believe that we should question all types of sexual stereotyping. If you ask me, there's no such thing as "women's work". There's no reason at all why a man shouldn't do the ironing! My husband does all the ironing in our house — and I do all the electrical repairs!

A.Some jobs are more suitable for men than for women.

B.Women should take care of the practical aspects of childcare.

C.Cleaning, washing and ironing are women's work.

听力原文:M: Miss Barnes, I understand that you are quitting.

W: That's right. I gave my supervisor two weeks advance notice yesterday.

M: If you don't mind my asking, why are you leaving us?

W: I'm going to work for another law firm, Ellington and Pitts,

M: Why are you going to work for them?

W: They offered me a better salary.

M: Well, Miss Barnes, good legal secretaries are hard to find and we've been quite satisfied with your work here. I'll be glad to match whatever Ellington and Pitts offered you.

W: You should have said that a month ago when I asked you for a raise. I started looking for a new job the next day.

M: I'll even give you ten dollars a week more than their offer.

W: It's not the money. I wouldn't work for you even if you offered to double my salary.

M: Then what is it for?

W: I want to work for someone who appreciates the work I do and gives me raises before I have to ask for them.

听力原文:M: Hello, John Adams speaking.W: Good morning, Mr. Adams. I saw your advertisemen

听力原文:M: Hello, John Adams speaking.

W: Good morning, Mr. Adams. I saw your advertisement in the local newspaper for a waitress and I wonder if you could give me a few more details about the job.

M: Yes, certainly. We would need you from ten in the morning until two in the afternoon, roughly. We're offering about $450 a week. Obviously there may be a little bit more if you have the right qualifications and experience. Have you had any experience?

W: Well, yes, I have. I'm at present working for and have been working for the same firm for about five years, for a small firm of consultant engineers.

M: Well, that sounds good. Perhaps you could come down for an interview sometime.

W: Yes. When would be suitable for you?

M: What about next Wednesday at about 2:30?

W: Yes, I think that would be fine, actually. That's OK.

M: Could you just tell me who you're working for at the moment?

W: I'm working for Bloggses actually in the High Street.

M: Right, OK. And could I just have your name?

W: Yes. My surname is Boardman.

M: Right, OK. Miss Boardman, well, see you then next Wednesday at 2:30.

听力原文:M: So, you're an architect.

W: Yes.

M: Do you work for a public or a private organization, or you're self-employed, that is working on you own?

W: I'm working for a private designing construction company.

M: How did you start your career?

W: I started it with the government.

M: Oh, did you? What made you decide to work for the government?

W: Well, it was a matter of chances, really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in the newspaper and I thought "why don't you try it". In fact, I have no preferences where I work, public or private.

M: And do you still have this idea, or...

W: More or less, yes. Although I'm now working with a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years. It was all right. Of course, there is the bureaucracy that one has to put up with but that's no that had. If you don't mind bureaucratic wheels turning slowly and things not being as efficient.

M: Mm, ha, and what made you leave the public sector?

W:Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my husband doesn't work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better if I moved to the private sector. This is why it's hard for me to be self-employed, because self-employed work has a disadvantage that there may be time or a period of time when you are unemployed.

(20)

A.A newspaper.

B.The government.

C.A construction firm

D.A private company,

M: Thanks, Nancy. We will really miss her.

W: I know. She was so nice to you.

M: Yes, she was so nice to the whole family. You know, she even left Barbara and me a large sum of money.

W: Oh, really? What do you plan to do with the money?

M: I have no idea. I never thought of having such a big fortune.

W: You might want to talk to Jeff Hunter, my broker, about investing some of it. As a broker, he can help you. The brokerage firm he works for is one of the best in our country.

M: That's a wonderful idea.

W: Have you ever had experience in investment?

M: Oh, yeah. Actually, I already have a small stock portfolio. Barbara and I own some shares in four large companies.

W: That's great. And I am sure you will get some good advice from Mr. Hunter. And perhaps he can also give you some information on tax policy.

M: Thanks. But why do I need to know the tax policy?

W: You know that you will have to pay estate taxes on the inheritance?

M: I could hardly forget about it.

W: So Mr. Hunter would be able to advise you about your taxable income, and perhaps he can suggest some tax shelters for you.

M: It's very kind of you. But I am still worrying that I do not have enough money to be a speculative investor.

W: Well, my broker can give you the latest information in all areas of the stock market, not just in investment for speculation.

M: That's great then. I hope to talk to him because I am thinking of increasing my dividends from stocks.

W: Maybe he will suggest some currently active stocks for you to invest in. He also handles municipal bonds, the income from which is tax-exempt. Talk to him soon, here's his phone number.

M: Thanks a lot!

d about finding a job.

M: Have you checked with the employment resource center here at school?

W: Yes, there were one or two promising leads, but I'm hoping to find something a little better than those. I have a list of the most prominent accounting firms. I plan on sending my resume to each of them.

M: Tom told me that he has mailed out twenty resumes already.

W: The job market is very tight this year. I'm afraid that there will be a lot of the graduating class that will have to settle for something less than they hoped for or go to a less desirable part of the country.

M: Bob and Joe have contacted a headhunter. They hope by using those professional services they will be able to find a good position.

W: I thought of doing that myself, because their fee is too high. They would want nearly half of my first six months' salary.

M: What about that accounting firm your father's company uses? Do you think he could give you a recommendation?

W: I hate to ask him to do that, but if my other leads don't work out, I'll ask him for help.

M: Networking the contacts you have is one of the best ways to find employment.
