J: Yes, I would.
I: That's very good. Er I'd like to know a little bit about you. Perhaps you could start if you could tell me a little bit about your education.
J: Oh yes, right. Well, I left school at 18 and for the first two years I went to Gibsons, you might know it, it's an engineering firm. Um and after that, I wanted to do a course, so I did a one-year full-time PA course and went back to Gibsona. I was PA to the Export Director. I stayed there for two years and then moved on to my present company. Um that's Europa Marketing um Mr Adair, the marketing director, offered me a job because Gibson had worked quite a lot with Europa Marketing. And I've been with them for three years now Um first working with the Marketing Director and and now I'm with the Sales Director.
I: That's all very interesting, Miss Jones. Um,.- l'd like to know, what did you enjoy most at school'? What was the course that you enjoyed most?
J: Ah foreign languages I liked best. We did French and German. Yes.
I: Mhm. And are you quite fluent in those now?
J: Yes, a bit rusty now, but um obviously the more travel I can do, the more [ can use my languages and I'd like to learn another language. I'd like to add Italian as well.
I: Italian?
J:Yes.
J: Very good, very good, that might be very useful Now er tell me a little bit about er the work you're doing at present.
J: Um well er Europa Marketing is a marketing and public relations company and they do consultancy work for companies operating in the UK and European markets. Er our clients come from all over the world um we deal with some of them by post, but most of them come to our offices and at least once during a project. I assist the sales director by arranging these visits, setting up meetings and presentations and I deal with her correspondence. I've not been able to go with her on any of her trips abroad, but I've been to firms in this country, several times on my own to make these arrangements.
I: It sounds as if you're very happy there, Miss Jones. I'm curious why you'd tike to leave them and join our company.
J: Well um I know the reputation of Anglo-European and it has a very good reputation. And I feel I would have more scope and opportunity in your company and that the work will be more challenging for me. I might be able to possibly travel and use my languages because at the moment most of my work is rather routine secretarial-type work and I like the idea of more um challenges in my life really.

听力原文:Police Officer: Hello. 24th Precinct. Officer Jones speaking.
Man: Help. Yeah,uh,it was wild,I mean really bizarre.
Police Officer: Calm down sir!Now,what do you want to report?
Man: Well,I'd like to report a UFO sighting.
Police Officer: A what?
Man;What do you mean“what”?An unidentified flying object!
Police Officer: Wait,tell me exactly what you saw.
Man: Well,I was driving home from a party about three hours ago,so it was about 2:00 AM,when I saw this bright light overhead.
Police Officer: Okay. And then what happened?
Man: Oh,man. Well,it was out of this world. I stopped to watch the light when it disappeared behind a hill about a kilometer ahead of me.
Police Officer: Alright. Then what?
Man: Well,I got back in my car and I started driving toward where the UFO landed.
Police Officer: Now,how do you know it was a UFO?Perhaps you only saw the lights of an airplane,or the headlights of an approaching car. Things like that happen. you know.
Man: Well if it was that,how do you explain“the BEAST”?
Police Officer: What do you mean,“the BEAST”?
Man: Okay. I kept driving for about five minutes when all of a sudden,this giant,hairy creature jumped out in front of my car.
Police Officer: Oh,yeah. Then what?
Man: Well,then,the beast picked up the front of my car and said,“Get out of the car. I'm taking you to my master!”Something like that.
Police Officer: Wow?A hairy alien who can speak English!Come on!
Man: I'm not making this up,if that's what you're suggesting. Then,when I didn't get out of the car,the beast opened the car door,carried me on his shoulders to this round-shaped flying saucer,and well,that's when I woke up along side the road. The beast must have knocked me out and left me there.

根据材料,回答 91~96 题
[1] “Daddy, you're crying,” say my sons. “No, boys, I'm man-crying. Very useful skill.”
[2] A short walk from my house in Hampshire, on a hill overlooking the heathland,is a plaque marking the spot where Richard Pryce Jones deliberately crashed his Halifax bomber during the war. ① He could have parachuted to safety, but that would have meant crashing into the village. The epitaph reads: “He died that others might live.”
[3] It never fails to move me. Not to tears, you understand. That would be disrespectful. But I do usually manage a lump in the throat and that film of moisture over the eyes that men have in their emotional armoury. ②Gordon Brown demonstrated the non-crying cry beautifully when he made his farewell speech on the steps of Number 10. That catch in the throat. The determination not to weep in public. At that moment, if at no other,he had nobility.
[4] Not everyone can carry it off. I don't think Paul Gascoigne ever quite got the hang of it, for example.But I like to think I have it down to an art. My technique honed from years of watching The Railway Children,Sleepless in Seattle and that scene in Dumbo when the mother elephant is locked away. “Daddy!” my sons will say, pointing the accusing finger. “You're crying!”
[5] “Me? Over Dumbo? Ha ha ha. No, boys, what I am doing is man-crying, a sort of non-crying cry. I'll teach you it one day. Very useful.”
[6] They are too young to appreciate the nuance yet, but when they are older I will explain that open sobbing is associated with being female, and so inappropriate for men. ③ The Charlie Chaplin analogy might be useful here. He once said that the way to act drunk is to imagine yourself a drunk man trying to act sober. The same is true when a man learns the non-crying cry. To be convincing, you must look as if you are trying to avoid tears.
[7] Men have to be careful what they cry at, because some subjects are more worthy of tears than others.Grief, obviously. But not self-pity. And rarely should a man cry in pain. And never at the death of a princess he didn't know. Those are the rules.
[8] I suspect my colleague Matt Pritchett might be with me on this. One of his cartoons showed a father next to a television tuned to the World Cup, explaining to his children that “at some point in the next few weeks, you are going to see me cry”.④ And the day after the last survivor of the Great Escape died, he did a cartoon showing a gravestone with a mound of tunnelled earth trailing away from it. I seemed to have something in my eye when I saw that, and I expect he had the same something in his eye when he drew it.
