(注:请直接在任务栏中提交,无需用附件形式提交。) Jason Walker, an account manager at HC Health Equipment, has not received the raise that he thinks he deserves. When Jason met with his boss, Connie Scott, last Thursday for his annual evaluation, she told him that he had missed too many days of work (eight days during the year). He was unwilling to work beyond his 40-hour work week to complete rush jobs, and had not attended two mandatory training sessions on the company's new computerized inventory system. Jason agrees that he missed the training sessions, but he was out of town on a job-related assignment for one of those sessions. He missed eight days of work, but he was allowed five days of sick leave as part of his contract. The other three days missed were due to his having to stay home to take care of his children when they were sick. He believed that these absences were covered by the company's parental leave policy. Finally, he does not agree that employees should be required to work beyond their contractual 40 hours. Suppose you are Jason and write an email to Connie Scott, stating your case.

听力原文:W: Mac, what are you doing?
M: Making the bed, Liz.
W: You know what, Mac? Connie's going to get a face lift.
M: Oh?
W: She even said she'd get the rest done, too!
M: The rest?
W: Yeah ! Mac, if my breasts were saggy, would you still love me?
M: What?
W: Answer my question, please !
M: What a silly question! Love has nothing to do with breasts being large or small, or being firm or saggy.
W: I'm just asking. You don't have to be impatient.
M: And Connie. She's crazy! No one can sustain youth forever.
W: Yeah. That's what I told her. Oh, I think I'm getting old. The forehead is wrinkled, the eyes are puffy, the sacks under the eyes are dark, and the skin is no longer as resilient as it was. Why! Age has set in ! Maybe I also need a lift. Maybe, I need a new life ! Oh, I really miss the good old days. At that time, my skin really felt so baby smooth!
M: Liz, what're you murmuring about? It's getting late. You should'ye been in bed minutes ago...

A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his car. He stopped and got out to speak to the girl. He asked if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police.

Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking of going on the stage is “Don’t!”.But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act,although the chances of his becoming famous are slim.The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school .Usually only students who show promise and talent are accepted,and the course lasts two years.Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a theatrical company(剧团),usually as an assistant stage manager.This means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre and occasionally acting in very small parts .It is very hard work indeed,the hours are long and the salary is tiny.
