听力原文：M: Hi, Mary, how are you today?

W: I'm fine, Vince. How are you?

M: Pretty well. Are you going to Joe's party tonight?

W: I want to but I can't. I have to work.

M: Oh, you have a job? I didn't know that.

W: I work at McDonald's. I'm the assistant manager. But I want to get a different job. My major is accounting so I want a job where I have more responsibility for money.

M: Why don't you try my father's company?

W: What kind of company does he work for?

M: He's the personnel manager of Jackson and Sons. It's a construction company.

W: That sounds like it might be interesting. Do you know what kinds of jobs they have?

M: Well, I don't know for sure. But he said they need twenty five or thirty new people. They plan to hire them in June. They'll work until the end of August or the beginning of September.

W: I'd better check pretty soon. If I get a job there I'll have to stop working at McDonald's in May.

M: I'll tell my father that you are interested in working for his company. Then you can call him and make an appointment to go and talk with him about it, I'll tell him tomorrow.

W: Good, then I'll call him the day after tomorrow. Thanks a lot, Vince.

听力原文：WOMAN: [furious] Imbecile! Idiot! Why didn't you look where you were going? You ran into me just as I was mining into High Street.

MAN: I'm very sorry; Madam, but you didn't give a signal.

WOMAN: Didn't give a signal! I should think not indeed! I had the right of way. Don't you know your Highway Code?

MAN: Of course I do, Madam, but I'm sorry to say that when you came to the crossroads, you didn't notice...

WOMAN: I noticed all right—I noticed you were driving much too fast—positively dangerously.

MAN: I'm afraid you're making a mistake, Madam. As it happened, I'd just looked at my speedometer when I reached the crossroads and I was driving well below the speed limit. After all, this is a built-up area.

WOMAN: You'd just looked at the speedometer? That shows you weren't paying proper attention to the road, and just look what happened: you crashed into my car, you dented the bumper, you broke one of my headlamps, you scratched the bonnet, to say nothing of the fact that you terrified me so that I was completely speechless with fright!

MAN: [surprised] Speechless, Madam? I'm sorry to hear that and I'd like to apologize for the damage: I did to your car. Nevertheless, if you'd been driving a little more carefully...

WOMAN: Carefully! The whole thing was entirely your fault. I'd only come from the garage up the road. My car had just been serviced and I'd been collecting it. Of course I was driving carefully.

MAN: I'm sure you thought you were driving with due care and attention, Madam, but I very much regret to tell you that you were exceeding the speed limit, and what's more...

WOMAN: Now just you listen to me! I wasn't driving carelessly, I wasn't driving too fast, my brakes were in perfect order, my windscreen was spotlessly clean, my tyres were in excellent condition, my driving mirror was angled correctly, but you... you... you...

MAN: Me, Madam?

WOMAN: You behaved most irresponsibly, driving straight over a crossroads like that without even looking to see if another car was coming.

MAN: I'm sorry you think that, Madam, but the fact is the traffic lights were against you. They'd gone red just before you got to them. In the circumstances I'm afraid I must ask you for your name and address.

WOMAN: My name and address! You give me yours first.

MAN: With pleasure, Madam. Here's my card?

WOMAN: [reading aloud] "Inspector Robert Simpson—Downshire Police ...!" But— but how was I to know you were a policeman? [Tearfully] You weren't even wearing your uniform.

MAN: Plain clothes duty, Madam. I was conducting a survey on the causes of road accidents in this area. Now, can I have your name and address please, Madam?
