听力原文：W: Oh, Larry, I have been meaning to talk to you.

M: Hi, Jane. What's up?

W: I have this great job lined up to manage the clothing store at the mall.

M: So what's the problem?

W: Well, one of the professors in my department just told me about a summer internship program that's available. She thinks I might be able to intern in the office of the Way Fare Hotel here in town.

M: That sounds like a great opportunity too. Why not take advantage of it?

W: I'd love to. Especially since I'm studying hotel management. It would be a great way to get some practical experience in my field.

M: And you never know, it might lead to something with them after graduation. They are one of the biggest hotel chains in the area.

W: You're right. But the drawback is l wouldn't be making nearly as much money as I would be working in the clothing store, not to mention the discount I could get on clothes there.

M: How much is the internship paid?

W: They pay their internship a small stipend and give them free room and board for the summer.

M: Well, if I were you, I would take the internship anyway. You could always get a job during the school year next year to make a few extra bucks.

M: That sounds like a great opportunity, too. Why not take advantage of it?

听力原文： A friend of mine told me that when he was a young man, he went to work as a teacher in one of the states of India.

One day, he received an invitation to join at the ruler's palace. Very pleased, he went to tell his colleagues. They laughed and told him the meaning of the invitation. They had all been invited and each person who was invited had to bring with him a certain number of silver' and gold coins. The number of coins varied according to the person's position in the service of the government. My friend's income was not high, so he did not have to pay much.

Each person bowed before the ruler. His gold went onto one heap; his silver went onto another heap. And in this way he paid his income tax for the year.

This was the simple way of collecting income tax. The tax on property was also collected simply. The ruler gave a man the power to collect a tax from each owner of land or property in a certain area, if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money. Of course, the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler. The difference between the sum of money he collected and the sum of money he gave to the ruler was his profit.

What do we know about the speaker's friend?

A．He was once a friend of the ruler.

B．He was a tax collector.

C．He was a government official.

D．He was once a school teacher in India.
