Unit 4, Book 3 信息匹配题及答案
Unit 4A) When the Pacific Science Center in Seattle put out a call for public art demonstrating solar energy, Dan Corson submitted a proposal. He called his musing a “Humming Heliotrope.” Heliotrope, in Latin, means “turning toward the Sun.”B) “I was thinking about how some flowers move in order to capture the Sun,” says the artist.C) Corson drew up a plan for five towering sculptures of flowers, inspired by the flower of the Australian firewheel tree, to sprout from the grounds of the science center near the base of Seattle’s famous Space Needle. The flowers would light up at night, thanks to electricity generated by day courtesy of solar panels on their faces. They’d also hum as people walked around the stems.D) “I also was thinking ab out science centers and how they reveal things to us that we normally don’t see—microscopically, atmospherically or phenomenologically. This led me down the path of imagining looking up and experiencing flowers from under them, as if you were the scale of a small insect,” he says.E) The Pacific Science Center selected Corson for the job. “He is very talented. Of all the artists, he had the most experience in solar,” says Michal Anderson, the center’s chief financial and operating officer. For example, Corson previously created a series of sculptures called “Nepenthes” in Portland, Oregon, that involve photovoltaic panels. The pieces collect solar energy during the day and then glow for four hours after sundown.F) “We had a lot of people apply who d id not have solar experience, and we had some people apply that had solar experience but no public art background,” adds Anderson. “He was a nice blend and definitely the strongest candidate. We think we made the right choice.”G) So, after a few tweaks to the original plan, Corson created the playful installation, now called “Sonic Bloom.” Seattle City Light’s Green Up program, which sponsors projects that stir interest in renewable energy, provided the funds for the commission as a way to honor the cen ter’s 50th anniversary.H) The patch of brightly colored blossoms, unveiled last month after three years of planning, is a welcome sight. The flowers stand up to 33 feet tall with petals measuring 20 feet wide. All told, 270 four-watt solar panels, built by the Washington company Silicon Energy, are mounted to the tops of the flower heads. Directly under the solar panels, in fiberglass domes facing downward, are LEDs. At night, the LEDs change colors and the beams chase each other, creating a light show effect.I) Corson tilted the flowers at different angles and in different directions to show the effect of time of day and orientation on energy generation. Visitors can see real-time, daily, monthly andyearly electricity generation on a kiosk inside t he center. “As you scroll through, you can see how different flowers are performing due to their angle,” the artist explains.J) The flowers are tied to the electricity grid, so their brightness is consistent over the five-plus hours each night that the y shine. Despite Seattle’s notoriety as a cloudy city, “the amount of energy [created] is calculated over the whole year, so the flowers produce extra energy in the summer, and less in the winter, but overall, the project is energy neutral,” says the artis t. During the summer months, that extra energy is used to offset some of the center’s energy needs.K) Corson is fascinated by light—so much so that he incorporates it into many of his public artworks. In Fort Lauderdale, Florida, he constructed a circl e of lit trees he calls “Luminous Conjunction.” When a pedestrian walking along the laid brick sidewalk passes a tree, the spotlight illuminating it changes from white to green. Then, in “Rays,” an installation in Rivers Edge Park in Council Bluffs, Iowa, Corson created a nightly light show that projects lines, rings and swirly patterns on a five-acre grassy lawn.L) “Light draws us into work; it acts as a lure to start the artistic conversation,” says Corson. “From a purely phenomenological perspective, it can make you feel differently by the color, angle and brightness. I also think it is one of the easiest ways to transform a piece’s experience from the daytime to the nighttime.”M) More than one million people visit the Pacific Science Center each year, guaranteeing “Sonic Bloom” a large viewership. The installation is located just outside the center’s gates, so passersby need not pay admission to see it. “People lay on the ground and take pictures looking up through the petals,” says Anderson. “There is also a sound component to the flowers. There are motion sensors at the base of each flower, and it makes a sound like a chanting monk. It is fun to watch people walk by who don’t expect the sound.”N) “Sonic Bloom” teaches visitors about how solar power works, while also showing that it can be an effective means of generating electricity even in the rainy, misty, overcast Pacific Northwest. “We really want people to understand that we have finite resources in the world and that renewable energy is a very important part of our future,” Anderson explains. “People think that Seattle has so much rain that solar energy is not a viable option, and it really is. We want people to give some thought about sustainable energy in their life and how they might be able to use that.”O) Corson, nonetheless, primarily considers it an artwork. “One of the things I wanted to do i s share that photovoltaic [PV] projects do not need to look ugly,” he says. “Not that all solar projects are ugly, but we often see PV cells arranged in an efficient and non-aesthetic manner. I wanted to look at ways of using the PV cells to tell more stor ies.”S1. The five special flowers have consistent brightness because they are tied to electricity grid.S2. Corse was a nice combination of both solar experience and public art background.S3. The meaning of “Sonic Bloom” lies in giving people more th ought on renewable energy in their life and how can they use it.S4. Corson’s musing a Humming Heliotrope was inspired by the flower of an Australian plant.S5.In order to stimulate interest in sustainable energy, Seattle City Lights Green Up program was launched.S6.As far as Corson is concerned, all solar projects are not necessarily ugly.S7.Sonic Bloom can generate electrify even in cloudy and rainy days.S8. Corson has created many public artworks, in which light is incorporatedS9.When people pass by, the Sonic Bloom will make a sound because there are motion sensors attached to the base of each flower.S10. The amount of electrify generated by each flower can be shown to the visitors through a kiosk inside the center.Keys: S1-J S2-F S3-N S4-C S5-G S6-O S7-NS8-K S9-M S10-I。

Unit 3Part OneListening IIn August 1975, three men were on their way to rob the Royal Bank of Scotland at Rothesay when they got stuck in the revolving doors. They had to be helped free by the staff and, after thanking everyone, sheepishly left the building. A few minutes later, they returned and announced their intention of robbing the bank, but none of the staff believed them. When, at first, they demanded £5,000, the head cashier laughed at them, convinced that it was a practical joke.Considerably disheartened by this, the gang leader reduced his demand first to £500 then to £50 and ultimately to 50 pence. By this stage the cashier could barely control herself for laughter.Then one of the men jumped over the counter and fell awkwardly on the floor, clutching his ankle. The other two made their getaway, but got trapped in the revolving doors for a second time, desperately pushing the wrong way.Exercise 11. B2. C3. D4. AExercise 21. F2. T3. F4. T5. F6. TListening IIMan: Yes, I'd like to report a theft.Police Officer: Okay. Can you tell me exactly what happened?Man: Well, I was walking home from work two days ago, enjoying the nature all around me...the birds, the frogs, the flowing stream...[Okay, Okay] when this woman knocked me right off my feet, grabbed my stuff, and ran off through the trees. [Hmm].I was so surprised by the ordeal that I didn't chase her.Police Officer: Yeah. Can you describe the woman for me?Man: Yeah. She was about 190 centimeters tall...Police Officer: Wait. You said a woman robbed you.Man: Well, I'm not really sure. [Hmm]. You see, the person was wearing a white and black polka-dot dress, a light red sweater over it, and she...or he...was wearing a pair of basketball shoes.Police Officer: Hmm. What else can you tell me?Man: Okay. Like I said, the person was about 190 centimeters tall, heavily built, with long wavy hair. She...or he...was probably about in her or his late 30s. I didn't get a good look at the person's face, but well...uh...Police Officer: What? Was there something else?Man: Well, the person...had a beard.Police Officer: Ah! What was, uh, taken...exactly?Man: Well, just my left shoe. Crazy, isn't it?Police Officer: Ah hah! The "bearded woman" has struck again!Man: The "bearded woman"?Police Officer: Yeah. It's this man who dresses up like a woman and, for some unknown reason, removes the left shoe from his victims. He's really quite harmless, though, and he usually returns the shoe to the crime scene a couple of days later. Man: Hey, he can keep my shoe, and I'll just take off my left shoe every time I walk through the park.Exercise 11. B2. D3. A4.

Now, their parents are telling the boys that they're going to get a divorce. Their mother is talking first. She's telling them that she loves them and their father loves them, too. But she and their father are having problems. They aren't going to live together as a family anymore. It has nothing to do with the boys. The boys aregoing to live with her. They're going to stay in the same house, go to the same school, and be with all their friends.Now, their father is talking. He's going to leave the house this weekend. He's not going to move far away; he's going to be in the next town. Two weekends a month, the boys are going to stay with him. And, they're going to be with him one month in the summertime. He'll take his vacation then and they'll go to the beach. The boys can call him anytime. He's going to be nearby. It'll be better this way.Tony and George don't really understand what's happening.

Tom writes the stories and Roger writes the music. Tom lives alone in a house in Boston. His wife died five years ago. Roger lives with his family in a big house next door. He is married to Celia Hunt, who used to be a film star. Celia wants a divorce since she and Tom are in love with each other. Sara works for Roger and Tom as a secretary and always complains about being overworked and underpaid. Jack is Roger’s son. He had several fights with his father last week when he told his father that he wanted to go around the world on a motorbike.Part BCelia: I’m Celia. I was in the kitchen making Roger a cup of coffee. He was in his study playing the piano, and he suddenly stopped playing. He often does that when he’s writing a new song. I took his coffee into the study, and found him dead. The door into the garden was open, and there was a gun on the piano. I picked it up, and it was still warm. And then I screamed.Sara: I’m Sara. I was in Tom’s house, working in his study. I was typing some notes on the newmusical. Tom was out in the garden. I could hear Roger playing the piano next door—he plays really loudly! Then the playing stopped, and I heard a scream. So I ran back home, went in the front door, and went into Roger’s study. Jack and Celia were already there.Jack: I’m Jack. I was upstairs in my bedroom, using my computer, and Dad was making a terrible noise on the piano, as usual. Then he stopped playing, and a minute later, I heard a loud scream. So I ran downstairs, and went into Dad’s study, and I found my mother standing by the piano. She was holding a gun in her hand, and Dad was lying across the piano, covered in blood.Tom: I was at home. Sara was in the study, typing on the computer, and I was walking around the garden, thinking about the new musical. Nextdoor, I could hear Roger playing the piano. Suddenly I heard a shot, and the playing stopped. Then someone screamed. I ran back into my study—Sara was gone—and I followed her around to Roger’s home.Exercise 11. stories2. music3. next door4. in love with5. secretary 6 fightsExercise 2Celia: 124 Sara: 24 Jack 14 Tom 123Part 4Further ListeningListening IIt isn't strictly true that one half of the world is rich and the other half is poor. It is one-third that is very rich and two-thirds that are very poor. People in the rich third don't realize the enormous difference between them and the other two-thirds. A very simple example is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in many of the poorer countries. A fisherman in South America may be catching fish which are processed into pet food and yet his own children are not getting enough protein for their bodies to develop properly. Although a lot of the world's natural resources come from these poorer countries, people in the richer countries are probably using much more of these resources than people in Asia or Africa. The richer countries are in a position to dictate to suppliers what kind of prices they are prepared to pay for these natural resources. In some cases the prices have gone down. In others they have remained steady. But the prices the richer countries get for their own exports have continued to rise. So, they are getting richer and richer, and the poorer countries are getting poorer and poorer.Exercise 11. F2. T3. F4. TExercise 21. South America / pet food / enough protein/ develop2. much more/ Asia /Africa3. position / natural resources /gone down/steady4. continued to rise5. getting richer and richerListening IIThe news report that night was about a famine in Ethiopia. From the first few seconds it was clear that this was a really monumental catastrophe. The pictures were of people who were so thin that they looked like beings from another planet. The camera focused on one man so that he looked directly at me, sitting in my comfortable living room. All around was the sound of death.It was clear that somehow the world had not noticed this tragedy until now. You could hear the despair, grief and disgust in the voice of the reporter, Michael Buerk. At the end of the report he was silent. My wife, Paula, started crying, then rushed upstairs to check our baby, Fifi, who was sleeping peacefully.I kept seeing the news pictures in my mind. What could I do? I was only a pop singer—and by now not a very successful pop singer. All I could do was make records which no one bought. But I would do that, I would give all the profits of the next Rats record to Oxfam. What good would that do? It would only be a little money but it was more than I could give just from my bank account. Maybe some people would buy it because the profits were for Oxfam. And I would be protesting about this disaster. But that was not enough.Exercise 11. the first few seconds2. so thin3. beings from another planet4. focused on5. looked directly at6. All around7. until now8. despair, grief and disgust 9. started crying10. who was sleeping peacefullyExercise 21. 2.4. 5.8Listening IIIA pensioner was shot to death in front of his wife last night. He had complained about local drug dealers shortly before his murder. Terry Morgan, 69, had just driven his wife back from work but was killed by a single shot in the chest as he got out of his car. His wife was opening the front door when she heard a loud bang and found her husband lying on the ground. He died without saying anything. The murder happened at his home in Rugby. It shocked everyone in his town. People said it was really a cold-blooded killing. As police began a major investigation into this horrible murder, they found Mr. Morgan had made complaints to a local official about drug dealing in a nearby street. He had mentioned his concern twice to the local official. A neighborof Mr. Morgan said he was against drugs of any kind. Whenever this topic arose he always expressed strong views about drugs. Last summer, gangs of teenagers in his neighborhood were found to be drug abusers. He tried to help them stop using drugs, but it only made them angry. But it's still too early to say this is related to the murder.A lady who used to live in the same street as Morgan said, "Mr. Morgan was a respectable man, a nice man. But it's getting really bad here with gangs of teenagers abusing drugs and stealing. They should be the ones accused of this murder." Exercise:1) complained 2) work 3) chest 4) shocked 5) cold-blooded 6) investigation 7) dealing8) He had mentioned his concern twice to the local official.9) Whenever this topic arose he always expressed strong views about drugs.10) But it's still too early to say this is related to the murder.Listening IVIn many countries in the process of industrialization, overcrowded cities become a major problem. Poor conditions in these cities, such as lack of housing, inadequate means of keeping places clean and healthy and lack of employment, bring about an increase in poverty, disease and crime.The over-population of towns is mainly caused by the drift of large numbers of people from the rural areas. These people have become dissatisfied with the traditional life of farming and have come to the towns hoping for better work and pay.One possible solution to the problem would be to impose registration on town residents. Only officially registered inhabitants would be allowed to live in the towns and the urban population would thus be limited. In practice, however, this causes a great deal of resentment, which would ultimately lead to violence.The only long-term solution is to make life in the rural areas more attractive, which would encourage people to stay there. This could be achieved by rewarding people for going and working in the villages. Facilities in the rural areas, such as transport, health and education services, should be improved. Education should include training in improved methods of farming and other rural industries, so as to foster a more positive attitude to rural life. The improvement of life in the villages is doubly important, because the towns themselves cannot be developed without the development of the rural areas.Exercise:1. poverty, crime2.drift, better work, pay3.resentment4. attractive, education services5. a more positive attitude。

Conflicts occur when their children fail to reach their expectations. But why do parents tend to expect so much from their children?The harsh reality may be one reason for the high expectations. We can see such logic behind parents' expectations: If their children can study hard, then they will be admitted to key universities, and then they will be much more competitive in job hunting after graduation.The peer pressure is also a contributing factor. Parents tend to compare their kids to other kids interms of academic performance. Parents consider it a shame if their children always lag behind other children. So it is often the case that parents spare no efforts to send their children to expensive training centers.Parents' love for their kids provides another explanation for their burning desire to see the best of their kids. Parents will be proud if their children make great achievements. But sometimes such love becomes a heavy burden on their kids.The harsh reality, peer pressure and parents' love all account for the unreasonable expectations for the kids. To set reasonable expectations for the kids is not easy, but is worth trying; after all, parents don't want the heavy pressure to crush their children.9威尼斯是意大利北部一座世界闻名的岛城：威尼斯建立于公元5世纪，在公元10世纪时成为一支重要的海上力量。

新编大学英语视听说教程Book 3 (Third edition)Unit 4 Career PlanningPart 1 Listening, Understanding and SpeakingListening 11.245682.1.weaknesses2.similar abilities and interests, interest you, important andchallengingcation promotion educated persons4.parents, teachers, benefit, give careful thought. useful suggestions, personal qualities5.getting money, our future happiness, combinationScript:For many of you this will be your last year at university and now is the time for you to begin thinking seriously about your future careers. In order to give you as much help as possible, I have quoted a list of questions that you ought to ask yourself.First, "Have I got a clear knowledge of my abilities as well as my interests?" Be honest about your weaknesses as well as your strengths. Take a really good look at yourself and give real thought to the kind of person you are, and what kind of person you want to be.Second, "Do I know the kinds of occupations in which people like myself tend to find success and satisfaction?" Talk to people who have similar abilities and interests and who are already in the careers that interest you. You can gain some idea of what they consider to be important and challenging in those careers. Watch these people at work.Third, "Have I weighed carefully the immediate advantages against the long-term prospects offered by the jobs I am considering?" Will the occupation you select give you satisfaction in the years to come? Realize now the importance of education in allfields, technical and professional. Remember that chances of promotion are usually given to educated persons—other things being equal.Fourth, "Have I talked with my parents, my teachers and my headmaster?" Remember they have a lot of experience that you can benefit from. They can help you think about the jobs. They can stimulate you to give careful thought to what you really want to do, and offer useful suggestions about how you might take full advantage of your personal qualities and qualifications.Last, "How do I regard my job? Is it just a means of getting money to do the things that I want to do? Is the work important to my future happiness? Is it a combination of both?"The above questions and their answers should give you some better ideas about how you should start planning your career. Your life-long job cannot be approached in any kind of haphazard fashion. It must be considered carefully, examined from every angle, and talked over with those who know you and those who can help you in any way.Listening 21.DDAB2.1)import from abroad 2)sales manager 3)salary 4)salescommission 5)travel in 6)experience 7)university 8)on a team Script:(Here's a dialog between a woman whose job is to help people find jobs and a man looking for a job.)Woman: Look. Here's a job that might interest you.Man: What is it? Are you sure? The last job interview you sent me off to was a disaster.Woman: Well, look. It says they want a sales manager, and it looks like it's a big international company. That'd be good. You might get to travel.Man: What kind of company is it, though?Woman: Um, let's see. Yes, it's a textile company that seems to import from abroad. They say the salary is really good. They operate a system of paying you a basic salaryand then offering you a sales commission on top of that. They say it is high. And oh, look! They give you a car to travel round in. That's not bad, is it?Man: Um, do they say anything about experience?Woman: Um, let's see. No, they want someone young with ambition and enthusiasm. Oh yes, they want graduates, so that's OK. You've been to university. Now what else? Let's see.Man: There must be some catch.Woman: No, the only thing is you have to travel, but then that's what the company car's for. Oh, and you have to be able to get on well with other people because it says you have to be good on a team.Man: Um, perhaps I'll have a closer look at that one.Listening 31.1) choose their careers 2)avoid certain careers 3)differentprofessions4) impressions and prejudices 5)lawyers 6)accountants 7)scientists 8)most popular 9)least popular 10) ignorance2. TFTFTScript:Interviewer: Some people feel that their jobs are misunderstood by others. Is that very common?Sociologist: Oh, absolutely. Most jobs or professions have an image or stereotype attached to them, and some of these are not realistic. The serious point is that young people choose their careers based on these false images, and they may even avoid certain careers which have a negative image. This can cause problems for the economy.Interviewer: Is there evidence of this problem?Sociologist: Yes, there was a recent survey of children's attitudes to different professions.Interviewer: How was this done? Children don't know much about jobs and professions.Sociologist: True. What the investigators wanted to get was children's impressions and prejudices. They gave the children twelve pairs of statements, one of the pair positive, and the other negative. Children were asked to say which of the statements was "most true" for each profession.Interviewer: For example?Sociologist: Well, for example, "Such and such a person is likely to be boring or interesting company."Interviewer: I see. What professions did they ask about?Sociologist: The list is long, but it included lawyers, economists, accountants, sales representatives, scientists and engineers.Interviewer: And the results?Sociologist: Well, they are striking, especially for engineers who came out much worse than one might expect. About 90 percent of the children thought that engineering was a "dirty job", of "low status", and the engineer was more likely to take orders than to give them. The only other person they thought more likely to lose his job was the sales representative. But, there were good points too. Engineering was seen to be "interesting, well-paid work".Interviewer: Hmm, not a rosy picture.Sociologist: No, but it got better when children were asked what they thought of the engineer as a person. Most of them chose positive comments, but most thought the engineer was likely to be badly dressed.Interviewer: What about other professions? What were the most popular? Sociologist: Oh, the lawyers by far. Next came accountants and scientists as well as economists. The engineers and sales representatives were the least popular. Interviewer: Sounds like a sign of the times.Sociologist: Yes, but I think the most serious implication was the children's apparent ignorance of the importance of the engineer's role in society.Listening 41.CACBD2.1. occupation cool 2. catch, provide, fulfilling,3. media coming afteryou, make your own work schedule, 4. have my pick of jobs Script:Part 2 Viewing, Understanding and Speaking1.ABDF HIKLputer engineering puter programmer3.internship3.lecture competition puter programming skills5.impatient 7. constructive 8. medical research9. management 10. 3,600Script:Mr. Davis: Good morning!

They think of me as being friendly, caring and determined.Mr. Davis: What personality traits do you most admire?Li Lei: I admire someone who is honest, flexible and easy-going.Mr. Davis: How do you handle criticism?Li Lei: I think silence is golden.

Monday Thursday Saturday Sunday8. choose their own working hours freedom of choice happy with Script:There are at least 100 million workers in the Unites States. Most of them are on the job 35 to 40 hours a week. Their typical day includes seven to eight hours of work. Usually, they have a 15-minute coffee break in the morning and in the afternoon. But work schedules vary from job to job.White-collar workers—office workers and many professionals—usually have "nine to five" jobs. They begin at 9:00 a.m. and finish at 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Blue-collar workers—mechanics, electricians, and laborers—often work from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. In many factories, blue-collar workers come to work in eight-hour shifts. Typically, these shifts start at 8:00 a.m., 4:00 p.m., and midnight. Finally, sales people and managers in retail stores work on Monday and Thursday nights, when the stores are open. Many retail workers also work on Saturdays, and some work on Sundays.These are the normal schedules for most American workers. However, many businesses now use a new system called "flex-time scheduling". Under this system, the employees choose their own working hours. Some people work from 8:00 to 4:00 five days a week. Some work from 9:00 to 5:00. Other people work 10 or 12 hours aday four days a week. Employees and managers are both happy with the system. The employees like the freedom of choice, so they work hard. The managers, of course, like the hard-working employees.What, then, is a typical work schedule? It depends on the job—and on the workers.Listening 21.ADCADScript:Man: How long have you worked for AM-ADMEL, Gill?Woman: Only for a year. It's May now, isn't it? Yes, I joined last August in fact. Man: August in 1996.Woman: Yes.Man: What did you do before that?Woman: I used to work for a travel agency in London.Man: It was interesting, wasn't it?Woman: Not really. It was just secretarial work, rather like this job. And it wasn't too well-paid. But I took a secretarial course when I left school and I couldn't think what else to do.Man: So you went straight from school into a secretarial course, didn't you? Woman: Well, not quite. I left school when I was 16, in 1989, I think it was. And then I went to work in a hotel in Austria for a year, to learn some German.Man: Austria? Why Austria?Woman: I don't know really. Well, we used to go there on holiday quite often when we were younger, and, well, I like Austria actually. Anyway then I went back and did the secretarial course. That was a year's course.Man: And then you got the job at the travel agency I suppose.Woman: Yeah, that's right. That was in 1991.Man: So you were there for five years!Woman: Yes, it's awful, isn't it? Actually, I'm thinking of giving it all up to become a nurse.Man: Really?Woman: Well, I worked in a hospital in Twickenham during my last year at school. Just cleaning and helping to make beds and so on. It was part of our Practical Careers training.Man: And you liked it?Woman: Yes, it was interesting.Listening 3CBDCAScript:Man: Well, now then, one thing I'd like to ask is, er, exactly why you applied for the job. I mean, just looking at your application form, you're actually over-qualified...Woman: Yes, I thought you might ask that. Um, the thing is, in my present job, although I'm actually in charge of a small team and I have a lot of responsibility, it's largely a desk job with a lot of paperwork...Man: And you're not too keen on being stuck in an office all day?Woman: To be honest, no, I'm not. I much prefer being out on site where I can supervise things, and deal with problems as they occur. And this job should give me the kind of contact with other engineers, architects, builders and so on.Man: Mmm. You'd certainly have to do quite a lot of traveling in the local area, you know, visiting different sites. You do realize, though, that the starting salary isn't as good as the salary in your present job?Woman: Yes, I realize that, but um, it does say in the job advertisement that the promotion prospects are very good.Man: That's true, and er, as this is a new project that we're working on, we think there'll be a very good chance of fairly quick promotion, depending on performance, that is...Woman: Yes, of course. Well, you see, I've got very little chance of promotion in my present job. I mean it's a very small company and there's nowhere really for me to go; that's why I'm looking around for somewhere else.Listening 41.CABDB2.ADF, BF, ACEScript:David: Hi! You're listening to Radio Southwest, the best in the southwest for music and up-to-the-minute news. Sue's here. Hello, Sue.Sue: Hello, David.David: And we've got the Jobspot for you today. So, if you're looking for a new job, this could be the spot for you. So, let's have a look, and see what we've got today.Sue: Well, the first one we've got is a cook. That's in a large, busy restaurant, so it's very useful to have had experience in cooking. Must be a high school graduate and the pay is $12 an hour. So that's not bad, is it? The hours are good too. That's Monday to Friday, 3:00 p.m. till 6:00 p.m.David: Great. Thanks, Sue. So that's a cook. Now, how do you fancy working out of doors? How do you fancy being a gardener? So as long as you're fit and strong, and at least 16 years old, that'll suit you. The pay is $8 an hour. And the hours, Tuesday to Saturday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., you have to work on Sunday once a month, but on Monday the Garden Center's closed. Now, the sort of work you'd be doing is potting, watering, things like that. So, how about applying for that? Pay, $8 an hour. Sue, what else have you got?Sue: Right, Dave. Well, from outdoors to indoors. We've got a word processor operator job here. This job might suit a woman with school-age children, because the hours are only 15 hours a week. It's a small, friendly office, and they require a high school graduate with two years' experience operating a computer. Pay is $9 per hour. So, there you go. That's a nice job in an office. If you fancy any of those jobs, give us a ring here on Jobspot at Radio Southwest. And now back to the music.。
