W: Hello! Glad to meet you.  M: Tell me something about yourself, please.  W: My name is Wan Mei and I live in Guangzhou. I was born in 1987. I am a student of Jinan University. I have majored in Public Administration, I like travelling very much and enjoy sports. I am in the tennis club at my university.  M: Your application form says you were out of school for half a year during high school. What was the reason? Were you ill?  W: Oh. No. My father's job took him to America for six months then, and he decided to take the whole family along.  M: So during that time you went to high school in the United States?  W: Yes, it was just for a few months. I attended Johnson High School in Chicago.  M: Tell me why you are interested in working for this company, will you?  W: I think working in this company would give me the best opportunity to use what I've learned at college, studying public administration for four years. I think this company has a great future. So for a long time I've been thinking I'd like to work for this company.  M: Have you ever worked during your university days?  W: Yes. I worked as a teacher to teach English to a middle school student.  M: There's a good chance for you to come to work for this company. Thank you for coming. Good bye!  W: Good bye!

Answer: M: Hello!


M: Hello, everyone.  W: We have been hearing a couple of things about this news that Ford Motor Company is slashing up to 30,000 jobs, shutting down 14 plants nationwide. Is it a big deal if we are no longer manufacturing these cars, Malcolm?  M: I think it's a huge deal. I mean the companies are massive employers both directly and indirectly. If you look at Ford after their restructuring, they've actually got 87,000 employees which is twice as many as Microsoft have worldwide. Moreover, if you look at those jobs, they are very high-paying jobs. These are people who can afford to buy their own products.  W: Er, it seems to indicate a big hit for our economy if these jobs go bye-bye.  M: Yeah, it's a really sad day for America.  W: But it is not as if cars are stopped being made, right?  M: Correct. Still a large number of cars are being made by American manufacturers. More than half of the American cars sold in America are American. So what has happened over time is that as the market share has fallen, foreign car companies have come in, taken over plants and set up new plants, and they have taken over that capacity. So, it is not like there are fewer cars being produced in America than there were 30 years ago.  W: Let me ask you about the Chinese coming in. What would it mean to American jobs, if and when that happens?  M: The Chinese cars we have seen so far aren't that great and they don't have the branding necessary to make a huge impact in the world stage.  What was said before this conversation?

Andrew: What? What's going on?  Andrew's Sister: What happened to YOU?  Andrew: You mean my hair? You like my hair?  Andrew's Sister: Uh, I think you know what I mean, Andrew. Do you want me to be honest? [ What? ] Okay. Andrew. You've put on, like, a ton of weight since I saw you at Christmas time. What on earth happened to you?  Andrew: Why are you always so blunt?  Andrew's Sister: Well, I'm your big sister. I'm ... what am I? Three years older than you, and I can be blunt if I want. Besides, you used to say stuff like that to me all of the time. You used to call me fatso all the time when I was little.  Andrew: Oh, yeah, well, to be honest, uh ..., I started changing my life .... yesterday. [ Oh good! ] I'm on the Wafu Diet.  Andrew's Sister: What? I've never even heard of the Wafu Diet. What is that?  Andrew: Ah, it's too difficult to explain. I found information about it in my junk mail the other day ...  Andrew's Sister: What? You read your junk mail? No one reads their junk mail.  Andrew: ... and I signed up for it, and it only cost $490.  Andrew's Sister: You're serious? [ Yeah. ] Four hundred and ninety bucks? [ Yeah. ] Like every month or every week or ...?  Andrew: I didn't check that ... ah, ah, but, but, but, but ... I think ...  Andrew's Sister: Listen. I think you're getting scammed, and it sounds really stupid, so listen. I'm not fat anymore, so trust me. I ... if you want to lose weight, you need to do it the right way.  Andrew: Well, like what?  Andrew's Sister: Well, okay.  Andrew: Okay, uh, well, look. Look at my running shoes over there.  Andrew's Sister: Andrew. They're still in the box. ( Well ... ). Never used. Besides exercise, yeah, exercise is wonderful. It's great, but you also need to learn how to eat right. For example, you need to eat smaller portions. And, and you can't load up your plate with seconds and thirds like you always used to do at the family parties.  Andrew: Well, okay. I'll just get a bigger plate!  Andrew's Sister: Andrew! That won't help. Next [ Oh, next? ]. Oh...  What was said before this conversation?
