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.
选项
A、Because her husband likes her to work for a firm.
B、Because she prefers working for the government.
C、Because self-employed work is very demanding.
D、Because self-employed work is sometimes insecure.
答案
D
解析
[听力原文]
Why isn’t the woman self-employed?
[听前预测] 选项前两项的内容和她及她丈夫对她工作的态度有关,后两项是对self-employed(自我雇用)的评价。由此推测对话可能会围绕对某一工作的评价提问。
[答案详解] 目的原因题[考频:4]。长对话中的结束处往往是出题点。在这个对话中,女士没有自己当老板的原因就是在结束时阐明的:self-employed work has a disadvantage that there may be time or a period of time when you are unemployed自己经营有一个缺点,即你会有失业期,由此可知自己当老板是不稳定的。故选D)。
