SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文：Interviewer: If you're going to create a TV show that deals week after week with things that are unbelievable, you need an actor who can play a believer, you know, a person who tends to believe everything. Tonight, in our show we have David Duchovny, who has starred in the popular TV series, The X-files. Thanks to his brilliant performance in the TV series, David has become one of the best known figures in the country. Good evening, David, I'm so glad to have you here.
David: It's my pleasure. Thanks for inviting me on the show.
Interviewer: David, have you often been on radio shows？
David: Oh, yes, quite often. To be frank, I love to be on the show.
Interviewer: Why ？
David: You know, I want to know what people think about the TV series, and about me—y acting, etc.
Interviewer: Ok, David, let's first talk about the character you played in The X-files. The character, whose name is Mulder, is supposed to be a believer. He deals with those unbelievable, weird and often bizarre things and events. He must be . .. I mean . . . Mulder, someone who really believes in the things he meets, in order to keep on probing into those mysteries.
David: That's true. Remember those words said by Mulder？ "What is so hard to believe？ ... Whose iutensity makes even the most skeptical viewer believe the paranormal and outrageous government conspiracies. With every reason to believe that life in the persistence of it is driving us out of our terrestrial sphere, etc. etc .... "
Interviewer: Fabulous! I guess, David, your contribution to the hit series is credibility. Now, let's talk about your personal experience. From what I road, I know that starting from your childhood, you were always a smart boy, went to the best private schools, accepted at most of the Ivy League colleges. Not bad for a lower middle class kid, from a broken family on New York's Lower East Side. So imagine mom's surprise when you, who were on your way to a doctorate at Yale, took a few acting cclasses and got bitten by the bug.
David: You bet. My mother was real surprised when I decided to give up all that in order to become an actor.
Interviewer: Sore. But talking about Mulder, the believer in The X files, what about you, David？ Do you believe it all in re al life: the aliens, people from outer space, you know, UFOs, government conspiracies, all the things that the TV series deal with？
David: Well, government conspiracies, I think, are a little far fetched because, I mean, it's very hard for me to keep a secret with a friend of mine, and you're gonna tell me that all entire government is gonna come together and hide the aliens from us？ I find that hard to believe. In terms of aliens, I think that tile odds are, there must be.
Interviewer: But you could believe in aliens？
David: Oh, yeah.
Interviewer: The character you played in The X-files, Fox Mulder, is so dark and moody. Are you dark and moody in life？
David: I think so. I think what they wanted was somebody who could be this haunted and driven person but not behave in that way, and therefore be haunted and driven but also appear to be normal and not crazy at the same time. And I think that I could, I can, I can offer that.
Interviewer: What haunts you now？ What drives you now？
David: What drives me is failure and success and all those things, so ...
Interviewer: Where are you now？ Are you haunted and driven？ Failed or successful？ Which？
David: Yeah, both.
Interviewer: All of the above？
David: I always feel like a failure.
Interviewer: Do you mean now you feel like a failure？
David: Yeah, I mean,
A．He had excellent academic records at school and university.
B．He was once on a PhD program at Yale University.
C．He received professional training in acting.
D．He came from a single-parent family.

What is so hard to believe？ Whose intensity makes even a most skeptical viewer believe the paranormal and our rigorous government conspiracies, without every reason to believe that life in the persistent survey is driving us out of our territorial sphere, etc.
Interviewer: I believe, I guess, David, your contribution to the hot series is quite apparent. Now let's talk about your personal experience. From what I have read, I know that starting from your childhood, you were always a smart boy, went to the best private school, and were accepted at most of the Ivy League colleges. Not bad for a low middle class kid from a broken family on New York's Lower Eastside.

Interviewer: So you could believe in aliens？
David: Oh, yeah.
Interviewer: The character you played in The X-Files, Fox Mulder, is so dark and moody. Are you dark and moody in life？
David: I think so. I think what they wanted was somebody who could be this hearted, driven person, but not behave that way and therefore be hearted and driven but also appear to be normal and not crazy at the same time. And I think that I could, I can, I can afford that.
Interviewer: What haunts you now？ What drives you now？
David: What drives me is failure and success and all of those things, so ...
Interviewer: Where are you now？ Are you haunted and driven, failed or successful, which？
David: Yeah, both.
Interviewer: All of the above？
David: I always feel like a failure.
Interviewer: Do you mean now you feel like a failure？
David: Yeah, I mean, sometimes you know, like I come back to New York, so it's like, everything is different. So I lie on bed and think, two years ago, three years ago, very different. Maybe I'm doing well, but then I think, you know there are just so many other things that I want to do and...
Interviewer: Your father and mother divorced when you were eleven. Does that have effect on your life to

听力原文：INTERVIEWER: On the matter of careers, a lot of the jobs that people go into are sort of lifetime careers. What about baseball？ Is it a full life-time career？
MIKE: It's been—I mean, it's been my life so far, you know. I know someday—could be tomorrow—that I'm going to be out of it.
INTERVIEWER: But how long can you really expect to... to play, let's say, actively？
MIKE: Well, I think I've set goals, and I made my first goal, which was to make it to the big leagues. And now, my next goal is to make it through four years... to get my pension. And after that, everything is...
INTERVIEWER: But how many years can you expect to play professional ball？
MIKE: It's...I'm a pitcher, and it's difficult, as a pitcher to really say how many years... because you never know whether you're going to have a sore arm, whether it's going to go on you or what the problem may be. But as a pitcher, I guess the prime—I'm 24 years old now, and this is my sixth year—and the prime time for a pitcher is 27 to 30.
INTERVIEWER: Well, is there any problem with a sort of feeling of insecurity？
MIKE: Yeah, there is, especially, like I said—my first year. I disciplined myself, and I worked hard—and that's what got me here. And I realize that I have to work hard to stay here. And there is the insecurity.
INTERVIEWER: You're under contract？
MIKE: Right, I'm under contract. But that doesn't necessarily—I mean, they could send me down tomorrow. They could do whatever they wanted with me.
INTERVIEWER: What does it take to play professionally？ I'm thinking about the skill. Is it something that you just work hard to get, or is there a natural sort of ability？
MIKE: Well, there's people that have the natural ability, you know. I feel like I didn't have.
INTERVIEWER: So, you think there is something natural... a natural ability.
MIKE: There's a natural ability.
INTERVIEWER: I mean, just working hard isn't enough.
MIKE: I think that's what got me here. I really do. I know there was bad times and then— at one time in this organization, I was a suspect instead of a prospect. And I was told that.
INTERVIEWER: Well, what about the... on the personal side？ What's the schedule like for a... for a professional baseball player？ Is it full time around the year, or... ？
MIKE: No.
INTERVIEWER: Are there some seasons... ？
MIKE: Well, it depends. Like last winter, after the season was over, I got a phone call from a team in Obregon, Mexico, and they asked me if I wanted to go down and play winter ball down there. So, I...
INTERVIEWER: Hmm.
MIKE: I thought, well it'd be a good chance because there's a lot of big league ball players down there, and I'll get a chance to face big league hitting, so I decided to go down there. And I think it helped me.
INTERVIEWER: How long does the season last here？
MIKE: Okay. This season lasts from April... let's see, April sixth until October second— depending on whether or not you're going to be in the playoffs, and then it runs till, like, October sixteenth, or something like that.
INTERVIEWER: So, you then went to Mexico.
MIKE: Right.
INTERVIEWER: Well, when kids play baseball, it's kind of mostly for fun. Is it still the
same when you're a professional ？
MIKE:It's always fun when you're winning, and right now, you know, we're having our tough time, but I mean, I still enjoy going out every day, and running, and throwing. INTERVIEWER: What's the main attraction, would you say？ Uh... because you're doing exactly what you want to do？
MIKE: I think that's the big thing.

Pitt: I took four subjects, French, German, chemistry and art. Chemistry wasn't my cup of tea, but art has always been.
Interviewer: I see. Now Mr. Pitt, what about hobbies and interests？ Er, what do you do in your spare time？
Pitt: I like jazz, traditional and folk music. I don't play of course, but I go to quilt a lot of concerts and I go to the theater occasionally and act a bit myself. I'm in the local Germanic society. I read quilt a lot and I've done a bit of photography. Also, I've hitchhiked to Europe once.
Interviewer: Very interesting. Mr. Pitt. Now let's talk about the management trainee scheme. What exactly do you think a manager does？
Pitt: I don't know a great deal about the work.
Interviewer: But you have got any ideas about it, have you？ You must have thought about it.
Pitt: Well, I suppose he has a lot of... a... what is called policy making to do. And... he has to know how to work with people, and all about the company. Yes, I... should think a manager must know something about all aspects of the work.
Interviewer: Yes, that's right Now, Mr. Pitt, is there anything you want to ask me？
Pitt: Well, there's one or two things. I'd like to know if I have to sign a contract and what the salary and prospects are.
Interviewer: With our scheme, Mr. Pitt, there is no contract involved. Your progress is kept under constant review. If we at any time decide we don't like you, then that's that. We reserve the right to dismiss you.

听力原文：Interviewer: Good morning Mr. Pitt. Do sit down.
Pitt: Thank you.
Interviewer: First of all, Mr. Pitt, I'd like you to tell me a little about what you've been doing.
Pitt: Well, I left school after I'd done my A Levels.
Interviewer: Ah, yes, A levels. What subjects did you take？
Pitt: I took four subjects, French, German, chemistry and art. Chemistry wasn't my cup of tea, but art always has been.
Interviewer: Art？
Pitt: Well, I really wanted to study art. It didn't turn out like that, because a friend of my fathers offered me a job. It's an accountant in London. A quite big firm, you know.
Interviewer: I see. A firm of accountants. Interesting. In your application, you say that you only spent nine months with this firm of accountants. Why was that？
Pitt: It was nearly a year, actually. Well, to be quite honest, I didn't like it. I just couldn't seem to get interested in the job although there were fairly good prospects. So I got a place at the art college to do a three-year diploma course. Interviewer: I see. Now Mr. Pitt, what about hobbies and interests？ Er, what do you do in your spare time？
Pitt: I like jazz, traditional and folk music. I don't play, of course, but I do go to quite a lot of concerts and I go to the theater occasionally and act a bit myself. I'm in the local Germanic society. I read quite a lot and I've done a bit of photography. Also, I've traveled a lot—hitchhiked all over Europe. Last year, that was.
Interviewer: Very interesting, Mr. Pitt. I think, that's all I wanted to ask about your background. Now let's talk about the management trainee schedule. What exactly do you think a manager does？
Pitt: I don't know a great deal about the work.
Interviewer: But you... have you got any ideas about it？ You must have thought about it.
Pitt: Well, I... suppose he has a lot of... er... what is called, policy-making to do. And... he has to know how to work with people, and all about the company.
Interviewer: Mm...
Pitt: Yes, I... should think a manager must know something about all aspects of the work.
Interviewer: Yes, that's right. We like our executive staff to undergo a thorough training. Young men on our trainee schedule have to work through every branch in the company.
Pitt: Oh.
Interviewer: And one of them is accountancy. Presumably you wouldn't like that.
Pitt: Well, if I had to do it, I suppose.., but I was thinking that my French and German would mean that I could specialize in overseas work. I'd like to be some sort of an export salesman and travel abroad.
Interviewer: You know, the glamour of travelling abroad disappears when you've got a hard job or work to do. It's not all fun and game.
Pitt: Oh, yes, I realize that. It's just that my knowledge of languages would be useful.
Interviewer: Now, Mr. Pitt, is there anything you want to ask me？
Pitt: Well, there is one or two things. I'd like to know if I have to sign a contract and what the salary and prospects are.
Interviewer: With our scheme, Mr. Pitt, there is no contract involved. Your progress is kept under constant review. If we, at any time, decide we don't like you, then that's that. We reserve the right to dismiss you.
Pitt: I see.
Interviewer: Of course. You have the same choice about us.
Pitt: Fair enough. And what about the salary？
Interviewer: As for salary, you'll be on our fixed scales, starting at 870 pounds. For the successful trainee, the prospects are very good.
Pitt: I see. Thank you very much.
Interviewer: That's all, Mr. Pitt. You should hear from us in a couple of weeks. One way or the other, or we may ask you to come back for another chat. Thank you.
Pitt: Goodbye, Mrs. Williams.
What subject is Mr. Pitt good at？
A．Art.
B．French.
C．German.
D．Chemistry.
听力原文：Interviewer: With us today is Steve Thomas, a 23 year-old chef who delights TV audiences with his imaginative cooking programme. Steve, what's the secret of your success？
Steve: Well, I think I'm different from other TV chefs in that I want people to see how I prepare a dish from the word go, so I don't present them with a dish that's half prepared already. If anything should go wrong during the programme, know, suppose something gets burned, well, that's part of the experience. When they try preparing it themselves, then they'll see the beauty of the finished product, but not on the screen.
Interviewer: So how did you come to get your own TV series？
Steve: I was working in a restaurant called the Gala in December last year when they came to make a documentary about the place. I didn't even look at the camera.I was too busy making pasta and cooking fish. But the producer spotted me and the following week they phoned me to offer me a job... The Gala owner wished me all the best and let me go without a complaint.
Interviewer: Wow!! Now, is it true that you come from a family of cooks？
Steve: Well, you could say that ... I started cooking at the age of eight. My mum and dad have a restaurant and Dad used to do all the cooking back then. My mum was too busy looking after us ... Dad insisted that if I wanted some money, I should work for it. And it seemed a lot more interesting to help out in the kitchen and see how things were made than to earn my money washing Dad's car ...
Interviewer: You attended a catering course at college. How did you like that？
Steve: At school I wasn't very good at anything much. At that time, my mind wasn't on anything other than cooking. I found sitting in a classroom trying to pay attention to things very very trying. I managed to get to college though and there I was fine, because when it came to the actual cooking, I knew what I was doing. I realised that a bit of academic work didn't do you any harm either and I found it much easier when I was interested in the subject, and so I've no regrets, really.
Interviewer: And now you have a TV programme and several cooks working under your orders. How do you get on with them？
Steve: Oh, I love working with them. But on my programme everyone has to be really special. They need to have gone through college training before they even apply for the job. I suppose the problem is that fairly frequently I tend to raise my voice if they don't work emciently ... but I'm just as likely to praise them if they do well ... What I say to them is, you want the audience to say we are the best, so we need to make a special effort ...
Interviewer: Is there any chef celebrity that you admire especially？
Steve: I definitely think that Ron Bell is the best, and I'm pleased that he's now got his own food column in a newspaper. I had the great privilege of working with him for a while. What's so special about him is that he's always been enthusiastic about using ingredients that come from the area where he works ... For example the fish of the day would be the catch from the river close to his restaurant. He's been criticised for sticking to old-fashioned recipes, maybe that's a weakness, but I think that's his decision ...
Interviewer: I heard that you are also going to write a book.
Steve: Yes, I’m writing it at the moment. It may disappoint readers who expect a lot of glossy pictures, as most cookbooks nowadays seem to be things to look at rather than read ... I've gone for a style. that may be less attractive with fewer colour pictures but it will be more useful for most types of reader. What I say in my book is that we must remember the success of a meal does not depend on how it looks ... it's what it tastes like and the company of the friends you'll share it with that matters ...
Interviewer: Well, thank you, Steve, I look forward to trying some rec
A．the process of cooking.
B．amusing incidents.
C．attractively presented dishes.
听力原文：M: (interviewer): Good Morning, nice to meet you, Carry and John. Do sit down.
M: (John Chambers) / F: (Carly Fiorlua) :Thank you,
M: (interviewer): You've both been able to develop strong effective cultures. Cisco's been able to hire a 1, 000 employees a quarter even during the peak of the war for talent. And both of you enjoy an unusually low turnover levels, despite being located in a mobile Silicon Valley, What do you do to recruit and retain the employees who will best fit into the culture you're trying to cultivate and to weed out those who don't？
F: (Carly Fioriua): I think the thing that Hewlett-Packard has always been wonderful at is the loyalty of its employees. What we were not so good at is dealing with employees who were not performing up to par. And so one of the changes we've had to make is to get much more focused about what is an acceptable level of performance. And if that performance is not occurring, then we have to act with that employee. We have to coach them to better performance, we have to put them in a job that is more suited to their skills; or if beth of those things fail, we have to help them find another opportunity and let them depart with dignity, but let them depart. And se that's really been the focus we've historically been very good at attracting people. And interestingly, people have come to Hewlett-Packard not just because of technology, but also because of the company's values. They like what the company stands for. That's turned out to bo a competitive advantage for us, and I think the same thing is true of John and his company.
M: (John Chambers): I would agree. I think HP has the strongest culture in the valley and much of it very, very good. Keeping the culture is probably the most challenging thing we face, so we literally put it on the board for everybody, in terms of what the culture it along with the three to five year goals and one year objectives. And then you've got to reward people in terms of the culture that you're creating, but it's more important to have them in a nurturing environment that has the right culture. And it's amazing how powerful that is in retaining employees and attract them—particularly the ones that you want.
M: (interviewer): In terms of staying in touch with employees, I want to ask you both about this, but I want to start with you because you've got something called these birthday breakfasts. Tell us... I mean, it seems so astonishing to me that you could pull this off in a large company, but I don't want to be inaccurate, so you tell me what you do.
M: (John Chambers): Well, it again starts with what you are trying to accomplish and this is just one of the tactics that you use. And the birthday breakfasts are the most effective way we interface to our employee base. Once a month, if you have a birthday in that month, you get to come and grill the president for an hour and a half. And any topic is fair, we don't invite directors or VPs to come, and it's my best way of keeping the fingers on the pulse of what's occurring. Every session I learn two or three things that I did not know going in, and when you hear the question again and again and again from one session to the next, it means that you're not answering effectively or your answer was wrong.
M. (interviewer): You're on his board, right？
F: (Carly Fiorina): Yes.
M: (interviewer): Do you like this idea？
F: (Carly Fiorina): Yea, I think...
M: (interviewer): I mean, do you have a version of this？
F: (Carly Fiorina): Yep, I think what the principle that John is outlining which is absolutely critical is leadership cannot become disconnected from customers, disconnected from employees. Every time I visit a city, I go and spend ti
A．1, 000 a year
B．2, 000 a quarter
C．1, 000 a quarter
