听力原文:It is my firm belief that men and women are equal. I cannot accept that some role

s are more suitable for males than for females. As far as I am concerned, men and women are equally capable of learning all skills.

In my view, parents should share household tasks and childcare. I think the division of labor should depend on individual circumstances. It seems to me that we can learn most things if we try. It's unwise to suggest that women should take care of most of the practical aspects of childcare because they are more patient, more gentle and more skilled at it. Men can be just as skilled in these areas if they have practice!

Of course, I acknowledge that men are often physically stronger than women and are therefore better at doing certain types of physical work. And I don't deny that one individual may be better at cooking, for example, than the other. But I reject the suggestion that cleaning, washing and ironing are women's work. I strongly believe that we should question all types of sexual stereotyping. If you ask me, there's no such thing as "women's work". There's no reason at all why a man shouldn't do the ironing! My husband does all the ironing in our house — and I do all the electrical repairs!

听力原文:Customers are much less loyal these days, so companies have to work hard to get r
epeat sales. And that means having staff who really understand customer care, and identifying what will sell. But of course demand changes. My first job was with an electronics firm that just didn't keep up with technical developments. They assumed there would always be a demand for their goods, and let their competitors get ahead of them. As a result they went out of business.

We make kitchen utensils of the finest quality and offer them to buyers like you so that you can sell them in your high-quality retail stores.

You order a set of knives, for example, and you choose how you want to customize them—have your family name engraved, choose what type of handles you want, and so on. I think you'll be happy to place an order for your retail stores with us once I've shown you some of our products. You can always send them back for a full refund if you're not delighted with your sales.

W: That's right. I gave my supervisor two weeks advance notice yesterday.

M: If you don't mind my asking, why are you leaving us?

W: I'm going to work for another law firm, Ellington and Pitts,

M: Why are you going to work for them?

W: They offered me a better salary.

M: Well, Miss Barnes, good legal secretaries are hard to find and we've been quite satisfied with your work here. I'll be glad to match whatever Ellington and Pitts offered you.

W: You should have said that a month ago when I asked you for a raise. I started looking for a new job the next day.

M: I'll even give you ten dollars a week more than their offer.

W: It's not the money. I wouldn't work for you even if you offered to double my salary.

M: Then what is it for?

听力原文:M: Hello, John Adams speaking.

W: Good morning, Mr. Adams. I saw your advertisement in the local newspaper for a waitress and I wonder if you could give me a few more details about the job.

M: Yes, certainly. We would need you from ten in the morning until two in the afternoon, roughly. We're offering about $450 a week. Obviously there may be a little bit more if you have the right qualifications and experience. Have you had any experience?

W: Well, yes, I have. I'm at present working for and have been working for the same firm for about five years, for a small firm of consultant engineers.

听力原文:M: So, you're an architect.

W: Yes.

M: Do you work for a public or a private organization, or you're self-employed, that is working on you own?

W: I'm working for a private designing construction company.

M: How did you start your career?

W: I started it with the government.

M: Oh, did you? What made you decide to work for the government?

W: Well, it was a matter of chances, really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in the newspaper and I thought "why don't you try it". In fact, I have no preferences where I work, public or private.

M: And do you still have this idea, or...

W: More or less, yes. Although I'm now working with a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years. It was all right. Of course, there is the bureaucracy that one has to put up with but that's no that had. If you don't mind bureaucratic wheels turning slowly and things not being as efficient.

M: Mm, ha, and what made you leave the public sector?

W:Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my husband doesn't work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better if I moved to the private sector. This is why it's hard for me to be self-employed, because self-employed work has a disadvantage that there may be time or a period of time when you are unemployed.

A.A newspaper.

B.The government.

C.A construction firm

D.A private company,
