Li:What a wonderful view! This is such a great city!Do you ever get tired of living in London, Andy?

A;\Li:That's a quotation by Samuel Johnson, isn't it?

A:Correct,so do you have any plans when you finish at Oxford? Li: I've got another year to go and then I suppose I'll go back home. A; And you will find a job?

Li:I think I have to do my Master's before I look for work.But I must admit London is very special.Do you think you would ever leave London?

A:Sure, I'd love to come to china one day, and I like traveling. But i think I'll always come back here.

Li:Well, your roots are here and there are so many opportunities. A;But have you ever thought of living in London for a year or two?

Li:Yes, but what could I do here? I had planned to become a teacher.But i have often thought if there was a job i could do here in publishing,maybe as an editor, I'll go for it. A:That's sounds like a great idea.I think that would really suit you Li:Maybe I should update my CV and send it to one or two publisher. A:Don't make it look too good Li:Why not?

A;Well,if you enjoy working with London Time Off, we don't want you working with anyone else Li:Oh, working with you and Joe it's great fun and really interesting. I couldn't think of a better way to find out about a city

A;So maybe you should think about applying for a job with us

Li:But do you think I'd stand a chance(有可能，有希望)?I mean, I'm not sure if Joe likes me A:Don't even think about it!Joe is very straight talking and I promise you that you'd know if he didn't like you.

Li:Perhaps we should both update our CVs and look for jobs together A:Hey,right!That would be fun.

李：什么是美好的景色！这是这样一个伟大的城市！你有没有厌倦过伦敦的生活，安迪？ 当一个人厌倦了伦敦，他就厌倦了生活，因为在伦敦，所有的生活都能承受 李：那是约翰逊塞缪尔的语录，不是吗？ 答：对，你在牛津结束的时候有什么计划吗？ 李：我还有一年要走，我想我会回家。 你会找到一份工作吗？

李：我想我要做我的主人的工作，但我必须承认，伦敦是非常特殊的，你认为你会离开伦敦吗？

当然，我喜欢到中国来，有一天，我喜欢旅行。但我想我会永远回到这里。 李：嗯，你的根在这里，有很多机会。

你有想过在伦敦住上一两年吗？

李：是的，但我能在这里做什么？我本来打算当一名教师，但我经常想，如果我能在这里出版一份工作，也许作为一名编辑，我会去做的。 这听上去是个好主意，我想那会很适合你

李：也许我应该更新我的简历，把它发给一个或两家出版商。 不要让它看起来太好 李：为什么不呢？

如果你喜欢和伦敦的时间一起工作，我们不希望你和其他人一起工作

李：哦，与你和乔一起工作很有趣，真有趣。我想不出一个更好的办法来了解一个城市 也许你应该考虑申请一份工作

李：但你认为我会站在一个机会（有可能，有希望）？我是说，我不知道乔是否喜欢我 答：不要想它！乔非常直率，我向你保证，如果他不喜欢你，你会知道的。 李：也许我们都应该更新我们的简历和找工作在一起 答：嘿，对！那将是有趣。

Conversation 2

Li:Talking about future plans,how do you see your career developing?

A:My career?Well, I like working for London Time Off.It's a part of a larger media company called Lift off USA,so there are lots of opportunities.But... Li:But...What?

A:It's not always very easy working with Joe.I mean,I kind of think he has a different agenda（different way of thinking from Andy不一样的想法）.I like his work, but sometimes I don't think his heart is in his job.

Li:How did he end up in London?

A:He did media studies in the States,and then found work as a gofer（杂工） at Lift off USA in New York.

Li:What's a gofer?

A:Go for this,go for that.It's a word for the least experienced person in the film and TV industry.Then he came to London and got a proper job as a researcher at Lift off UK,and then after a few years he got the producer's job in London Time Off Li:He is good at his job,isn't he?

A:Yes,he is confident and competent at what he does,so the people who work with him rate him quite highly（speak highly of）. Li:Except you?

A:No,I rate him too.And I get on with him quite well,although we are not best budies or anything like that,it's just...I want his job!

Li:Now we know your little secret.I promise I won't tell anyone A:Janet,there was something I was going to ask you... Li:Sure,what is it?

A:I was wondering...oh,it's nothing.Anyway,all this talk about your future career is making me thirsty.Let's go for a drink. Li:Who is round ? A:You...

李：谈论未来的计划，你怎么看你的职业发展？

我的职业？嗯，我喜欢在伦敦的时间工作，这是一个大的媒体公司的一部分，所谓的美国电梯，所以有很多的机会… 李：但是……什么？

答：这并不总是很容易的工作与乔。我的意思是，我想他有一个不同的议程（从安迪不一样的想法思维方式不同）。我喜欢自己的工作，但有时我觉得他的心在他的工作。 李：他是怎么到伦敦的？

答：他在美国做媒体研究，然后发现工作是一个助手（杂工）在剥离美国纽约。 李：一个助手是什么？

答：走这一点，去看电影和电视行业中最不有经验的人，然后他到伦敦去，在英国的电梯里找到一份合适的工作，再过几年，他在伦敦的时间里得到了制片人的工作。 李：他对他的工作很好，不是吗？

答：是的，他对他所做的工作充满信心和能力，所以与他一起工作的人很高（高度的说）。 李：除了你？

答：不，我认为他也是。我跟他相处得很好，虽然我们不是最好的budies或什么的，只是…我想他的工作！

李：现在我们知道你的小秘密，我保证不会告诉任何人 答：珍妮特，我有事要问你… 李：当然，那是什么？

我在想……哦，这是什么也没有，总之，所有这一切谈论你的未来事业是让我渴了，让我们去喝一杯。 谁是圆的？ 答：你…

Outsideview :How to get a job

Graduation.What a big day!Your life is about to begin!And then your parents say...\a job\listing is so annoying.Even trying to figure out what the actual job is can be difficult.Searching through the want ads can be so boring.And writing your resume is really hard work.

\

\

Even though I was trying really hard,even though I had sent out about 300 resumes,even though I asked all my friend and relatives if they knew of anything.I wasn't getting anywhere!Despite all my best efforts,I was still unemployed.

\（顾问）?I'll pay for it.Anything to help you get a job!\

\ So I figure,heck,why not?I met with Phyllis Stein,a professional job coach.

\it?\

\

\it boils down（归结为） to preparation,presentation, and understanding what the interviewer is looking for \

(Watching the videotape)

\Another way of answering it is not telling about yourself ,but telling your relationship to the job.\in Cambridge.They may need you to be able to be a troubleshooter.You use some examples in your life from being a troubleshooter.\trade show is doing,is dealing with problems.You need to be sure that you stay,sort of ,on target with preventing,presenting yourself in the strongest possible way.\

This time I felt a lot more confident when I went in for the interview.

Making a good first impression is the most important part of a job interview.

Arriving on time and being confident are the most important parts of a job interview.

It's very important that you are being confident and you're being clear in your answers and listening carefully

Not fidgeting（坐立不安，烦躁） and being confident are the most important things in a job interview.

Writing a thank-you note is the most important thing you want to do after a job interview/ And go in there with a firm handshake.

毕业了，多么大的一天！你的生活即将开始！你父母说……“找工作”，我告诉你！寻找你的第一份工作很难，阅读所有的工作都是很烦人的，甚至想找出什么实际的工作是很难的，通过你的简历搜索你的简历真的很难。 “我没那么一天开着。”得到一份工作面试，然后去它的整个过程是相当艰难的。 “对不起，你在等着。嗯，有个座位。”“我在这里有你的简历，你对助理的职位很感兴趣。” “是啊，是啊”

“好吧，这项工作的合适人选必须非常外向，善于交际，毕竟这是一个销售职位。” “嗯，我是一个非常外向的人（性格外向的人）。肯定。”

“应聘者有很大的self-confidence.customers需要感觉，你知道你在说什么。” “好吧，我真的self-confident.um我知道我在说什么，我想我可以，” “那么，你能给这项工作带来什么技能？”

“嗯，我知道我完全大材小用这个位置。我的意思是，嗯，在我的上一份工作，我跑了整个地方。”

“哦，你有监督人吗？”

“是的，他们中的五个。所以，我可以做这个工作，没问题。我也有很好的计算机技能。嗯，你还想知道关于我的什么？” “嗯……”

即使我真的很努力，虽然我已经发了约300份简历，即使我问我的朋友和亲戚，如果他们知道什么，我没有得到任何地方！尽管我尽了最大努力，我还是失业了。

“拜托，你为什么不看职业顾问（顾问）？我会为你付出的，有助于你找到一份工作！” “萨曼莎，我是菲利斯·斯坦。欢迎”“哦，你好，phyllis.nice见到你。” 所以我想，见鬼，为什么不呢？我会见了菲利斯斯坦，一个专业的教练。 “面试对你想要的工作至关重要”，她告诉我如何通过对职位和公司的研究来面试面试，而后者则在我的面试技巧上指导我。 “我要假装是你的面试官，然后我们会阻止它，并重播，看看视频，看看我们可以从中学习，好吗？”我认为你不应该去接受一个没有实践过的一些问题，这是相当标准的问题。” “告诉我你自己。”

“好吧，我的父母我的妈妈是一名社会工作者，我的爸爸是一名工程师。” “你的准备很重要。”

“你对我们公司了解多少？”

“嗯，我在网上看到了，你在网上做生意吗？对吗？” “有一系列的事情，必须做的，你如何目前自己/” “我为什么要雇用你？”

“噢，嗯，我是一个非常外向的人，我喜欢，我喜欢的人很多，我负责和尼斯。” “你需要考虑面试官的实际情况。”

“萨曼莎，你遇到的一个主要问题是什么？你是怎么解决的？”

easy, anything I’m comfortable with but as long as it’s clean and boss says it’s alright.

Presenter: And so you dress for comfort or do you think you are fashion conscious as well? Eric: Maybe a little bit fashion conscious yeah. You don’t want to stand out like a sore thumb（很显眼） and people make fun of you, you know for some reason, but at the same time you want to have your own bit of individuality.

Presenter: I think you are discreetly fashion conscious, would you agree with…？

Penny: Yes and another a good trick I always do is carry my high heels in my hand bag and go in

my trainers you see, and then I can charge along and jump on the bus and then, and then look…

Presenter: And you manage high heels?

Penny: Yes once I’m there and haven’t got to move around too much.

Presenter: Very impressive, very impressive. What do you think your clothes say about your

mood or your personality? Do you change depending…if you get up in the morning do you put on certain clothes depending on how you feel?

Penny: Definitely, yes. If I’m feeling maybe a bit down I do not want to war black because it’s

quite draining(精疲力尽的) and also as you get older it’s draining too, so I might put on some warm colors or which um, I don’t know, sort of make your skin look lighter and your eyes sparkle a little more. Um I, I change…I would say I have got a lot of different colors clothes according to my mood.

Presenter: Yeah, and what about you? Do you change dramatically in the evening when you go

out on town on the razz（狂欢） you know?

Eric: Well not really. Um yeah I might put on a nicer pair of shoes or maybe er get out of my

jeans and put on a nicer pair of pants, something like that. But um for the most part, it’s a young organization that I work for and the boss is fairly young so we all dress um with a youthful thought in mind.

Presenter: Thank you.

So you want to win a million dollars. Who doesn’t, right? Everyone has fun thinking about how they would spend all that money.

--If I won a million dollars, I would take a vacation around the world. --If I won a million dollars, I would feed the hungry children in Africa. --I would buy a Learjet and get out of here.

--If I won a million dollars, I would buy a cabin（小木屋） and live in the woods.

--If I won a million dollars, I would take a trip around the world, and the rest of it I would give to charities.

Winning a million dollars is a nice fantasy. But for many people, their fantasy can get them in trouble. Criminals called con artists, scam（欺诈）artists, or frauds（诈骗）, taking advantage of people’s dreams of winning it big.

--My dad told my mum,” Don’t do that, because you don’t know if they’re going to trick you or not!”

Scam artists tried to trick Maria Ellen’s mother out of thousands of dollars. These criminals told Maria Ellen’s mother that she had won part of a million-dollar jackpot. But, they said, since she was not a US citizen, she was not allow to claim the prize. They promised to collect the prize for her if she gave them thousands of dollars. --$15000, uh, at 5 o’clock in the Lottery（彩票） Texas Department. That’s what they told her. And my mum said,” OK, I’ll be there at that time.”

Police at the Dallas Lotto（乐透彩票） Claims Office say that dozens of people have been tricked out of their money in this last fraud. Fraud is a common crime. Hoping to win million, people make poor decisions and lose their money. But people who really do win millions can make poor decisions too. Bob Kenny works for an organization called More Than Money. More Than Money helps people who come into large amounts of money make good decisions about how to manage their unexpected wealth.

--What’s really important to me. My family. The health of my family. The education of my family. The long-term care of my family. These are the things important to me. These are the things I’m going to use my money to get in the world.

Albert Miller and Dorothy Adams who won a whopping（庞大的） $40 million had many choices to make on how to spend their new wealth.

--I was finally able to afford some health insurance,…

--And you didn’t have it before this.

--I didn’t, and I worked every every day of my adult life.

--That’s a great decision, buying health insurance. He knows his health is important to him. His family’s health is important to him. He knows his family is important to him. He knows he’s important to his family. So it’s really easy decision. I have the money. I need the health insurance. I’m going to buy it.

Now Albert can afford anything he wants. He bought an everyday car, a top of the line Infinity. -- It’s low-key…it’s a low-profile car for me.

His other new one is not. It’s a special edition Rolls-Royce. There are fewer than two dozen like this in the world. With a cognac bar, a twelve-cylinder（气缸） engine, and one smooth ride. --If you fly a Roll, you don’t drive a Rolls. So, you know, you just fly along.

--he decided to buy one car that was practical that he could use every day. And then he decided to buy another car that he knows is not practical, that’s been a fantasy of his. It’s something that, in some ways, he always wanted. And having a little fun with the money while he’s trying to make some decisions is a perfectly normal thing to do.

--Last time we talked, you were talking diamonds. What happened? --Uh, well, I got diamonds! Big ones eleven carats in all.

--I think that was a very sweet thing to do. He had his fantasies, she had hers, and having diamonds is something she always wanted.

A few weeks after the big win, the couple closed their restaurant, called Bentley’s. now they have more time to travel, golf, and playing on the boat Albert just bought. still, a lot’s the same. They live in the same house, in the same neighbourhood where they both grew up.

--We try to keep everything pretty much same as it was before. You know, we tried not to let money change us.

--Our culture wants us to believe that if we are not happy, if we had more money, we would be happy. And the research shows that that’s just not true. You’ll still wake up some mornings with a headache. You’ll still wake up sometimes in a bad mood. You’ll still have fights with your friends sometimes. It won’t make all of that better. Having more money will not necessarily improve the quality of your relationships or the happiness that you actually have in your life. What money does is allow us to make more choices. And making wise choices is what will make us happy.

Despite every man’s dream come true, Albert still thinks about money.

--The money pressure’s not there, but other pressures of having the money come then, so, you know, I mean, you’re never totally free of something to worry about.

--Albert’s a pretty wise guy. He understand that the money is going to create another set of issues for him.

--I still think most of us would trade our money problems for Albert’s any day.

--I think most of us think that the problems that we have in life would get solved if we had more money. But what I’m suggesting is that isn’t necessarily so- that money gives more choices, but it doesn’t give us the blissful（极快乐的）answer.

所以你想赢一百万美元。谁不，对不对？每个人都有有趣的想法，他们将如何花所有的钱。

如果我赢了一百万美元，我就要去世界各地度假。

如果我赢了一百万美元，我就给非洲的饥饿的孩子们吃。

我会买飞机离开这里。

如果我赢了一百万美元，我会买一个小屋（小木屋）和住在树林里。

如果我赢了一百万美元，我就要环游世界了，剩下的我也会给慈善机构。

赢得一百万美元是一个美好的幻想。但对许多人来说，他们的幻想可以让他们陷入麻烦。罪犯被称为骗子，骗局（欺诈）的艺术家，或欺诈（诈骗），利用人们的梦想赢得大小姐。

我的爸爸告诉我妈妈，“不要这样做，因为你不知道他们会不会欺骗你！“

骗子试图欺骗玛利亚爱伦的母亲了数千美元。这些罪犯告诉玛丽亚爱伦的母亲，她已经赢得一百万美元的奖金的一部分。但是，他们说，因为她是不是美国公民，她是不允许索赔的。如果她给了他们数千美元，他们承诺将为她收集奖品。

15000美元，呃，在彩票五点（彩票）系德克萨斯。这就是他们告诉她。我的妈妈说：“好吧，我会在那个时候。”

在达拉斯乐透警察（乐透彩票）声称办公室说，数十人被骗走了钱在这最后的欺诈。诈骗是一种常见的犯罪。希望赢得万，人穷时，离子和失去他们的钱。但真正赢得数百万的人也能做出糟糕的决定。鲍勃肯尼组织称超过金钱的作用。比金钱更能帮助人们进入大钱的数额决定如何管理他们的意外财富。

对我来说真正重要的是什么。我的家人。我家的健康。我的家庭教育。长期照顾我的家庭。这些对我来说很重要。这是我要去的东西用我的钱去世界上。

艾伯特Miller和多萝西亚当斯谁赢得了高达4000万美元（庞大的）有很多的选择，要如何度过他们的新财富。

——我终于买得起一些健康保险了，… --你没有在这之前。

我没有，我每天都在我的成年生活中工作。

-这是一个伟大的决定，购买健康保险。他知道他的健康对他很重要。他的家人的健康对他很重要。他知道他的家庭对他很重要。他知道他很重要他的家人。所以这很容易决定。我有钱。我需要健康保险。我要买它。

现在，艾伯特可以买任何他想要的东西。他买了一辆普通的车，一个顶级的线无限。

-这是低调……这是我的低调。

S：嗯，它被广泛认为国王和王后都更强大，但它的政府是由人民选举，总理是政府的领导人，他或她认为被认为是该国最强大的人

李：那太迷人了！但更令人吃惊的是，英国国会大厦有多大？

两个大房子，一个宫殿，一个大厅，我不知道是否有空房间

李：你是什么意思？

答：嗯，我是说我要离开我的公寓很恼火。我更furiour学习，我必须在下个月离开

李：那么你会做什么

搜索我！我要做一个皇家宫殿居住在。

In England no town is more than 170 kilometres from the sea.So there is no surprise that Britain has a very important history ships and the seas.The British Navy was the biggest navy in the world at one time.Now it's smaller, but many other ships are still used for importing and exporting goods and for taking people on business or holiday.In Liverpool there is a great museum of maritime（航海的） history.It's got several ships in the docks outside.Inside it shows what it was like to be on some of the ships.Ships like this one——the Cutty Sark at Greenwich in London—brought tea from India to Britain.It was a very profitable trade and made may people very rich.The ships used only sails and achieved very high speeds.Young men had to climb the rigging（帆具，索具） to put up the sails.It was very dangerous.Between 1830 and 1930, more than nine million people from all over Europe left from the port of Liverpolol to start a new life in America or Australia.In the early of 20th century, there were large numbers of very elegant passengers.They crossed the Atlantic from Liverpool or Southampton to New York in five or six days.The most famous ship was probably the Titanic.It sank in 1912 and over 1500 people drowned.It was the worst disaster in maritime history.You probably know about it from one of the most expensive films ever made—Titanic!One of the most famous shipping companies is Cunard.It's got the world's biggest cruise ship, the Queen Marry2 which crosses the Atlantic from Southampton to New York.It still takes five or six days but some people prefer that to five or six hours in an aeroplane.The majority of people do travel around the world by plane, but ships are still very important for moving goods.These metal boxes, or containers, are packed with clothes,television sets,computers,furniture and toys. Here at the Southampton Container Terminal, they unload more than one and a half million containers each year.So the sea still play a very important part in life in Britain.

Passage1

Just as Chinese children learn about the emperors of China, English children learn about England's history through its kings and queens.There have been many more kings than queens but one of the greatest and most loved rulers of England was a woman.Queen Elizabeth I.During her reign（统治） in the second half of the 16th century Elizabeth made Englang rich from international trade and also defeated one of the most frightening invasions England ever faced. Elizabeth's father,King Henry VII, had six wives—he divorced two of them and executed（处死） two. Elizabth's mother,Queen Anne Boleyn, was Henry's second wife and one of those whom he executed,when Elizabeth was three years old.

Elizabeth,who was born in 1553,was very intelligent, talented ,and, usually for a woman, received an excellent education. However,for much of her early life she was afraid that she would be executed like her mother.But after the death of her half-brother and half-sister, she became Queen in 1558 at the age of 25.All the rulers of Europe wanted to marry her and Elizabeth advisors also wanted her to marry and have a son.But Elizabeth never did,because she was afraid a husband would try to control her.

One of Elizabeth 's greatest problems was her cousin, Marry ,Queen of Scots.Marry believed she should have been ruler of England.Believing that her cousin was a danger to her as long as she remained alive.Elizabeth imprisoned（关押，监禁） Marry in 1568 and finally executed her in 1587.

The King of Spain, Philip II, had once wanted to marry Elizabeth but the two countries then became enemies.Marry, Queen of Scots shared the same religion as Philip, and her death gave the King an excuse to go to war with England.At the same time Spain was the most powerful country in Europe and in 1558 Philip assembled a huge navy called the Spainish Armada. It sailed for England with the intention of invading it.Queen Elizabeth made a famous speech to her soldiers, in which she said:\a weak and feeble（虚弱的，无力的） woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king,and of a King of England too.\Armada was defeated.

By the time she died in 1603.Elizabeth was ruler of one of the most powerful and richest countries in the world.

正如中国孩子学习中国的皇帝一样，英国孩子们通过其国王和王后了解英国的历史，有许多国王比王后更大，但其中一个伟大的最爱的英国统治者是一个女人。伊丽莎白一世女王。她在位期间（统治）在伊丽莎白英国丰富的国际贸易和也败在第十六世纪下半叶英国最令人害怕的入侵。

伊丽莎白的父亲，国王亨利七世，有六个老婆，他离婚两人和执行（处死）两。伊利沙白女王的母亲，安妮博林，是亨利的第二个妻子一人执行，当艾丽莎白丝三岁。
