听力原文：M: Good morning.

W: Good morning. Please come in and have a seat.

M: Thank you.

W: I have been looking through your application. You seem to have many of the. qualifications needed for this position. That's one of the reasons why you've been short-listed.

M: Thank you. As a matter of fact, I have been in computer programming for three years.

W: Yes, I see. Were you satisfied with your last position？

M: Generally, yes. But to be honest, not entirely. I was with a small, family-owned company, and chances for advancement were very limited.

W: The letter of reference from the president praises your work highly.

M: Mr. Brown gave me a lot of responsibility and I learned a great deal about company operations.

W: Well, we ask for loyalty and hard work from our employees. But we pay well, and opportunities for promotion depend on merit, not just age or seniority.

M: I am very interested in working for your firm.

W: I see. Well, have you got any questions？

M: Yes, well, I wonder if you could tell me what the salary would be.

W: Of course. We'd be offering a starting salary of ＄ 600 a week, that's for 40 hours.

M: Do you mean that it might be increased at a later time？

W: Yes, we usually give our staff a month's trial and then, if everything is satisfactory, we raise the salary by 20 percent. Any more questions？

M: No. I think that's all.

W: Well, thank you very much for coming in. I have a few more short-listed candidates to interview today for this position. But at the moment, your chances look very good. We will be in touch with you soon.

M: Thank you very much for your time.
