原文+答案解析

292.
M: We would be interested in having you join us, Mrs. Sharp.
W: Thank you. I have done this knid of work before.
M: I know, and that's probably the reason you've been employed. Do you prefer part-time or full-time employment?
W: Part-time.
M: OK. Some people choose part-time jobs because they want to do something else besides work, such as reading novels or playing sports. But they will not get any other benefits besides the wages.
W: I don't care about that. May I ask you if I can decide the hours I would work?
M: I can only give you the choice from 7:00 a.m. till noon or from noon till 5:00 p.m.
W: Then I'd prefer to work in the morning because I have to prepare dinner for my children.
M: OK, Mrs. Sharp. Just sign your name on this sheet of paper. You may start next week. Mrs. Clarkson has got something ready for you--a blackboard, some chalk, and a tape recorder. She'll show you around later.
W: Thank you.
