M: Excuse me。 Do you have time to help take a picture of us?

W: What?
M: I’m going to work at the Riverside Hotel。

M: Hi, Sue。 How’s it going?
W: Oh, hi, Frank, just fine。 How are your classes?
M: Pretty good。 I’m glad this is my last term here, though。
W: Why is that? I thought you were enjoying school.
M: I was. But now I’m getting tired of it。 I’m ready for the real world。
W: What are you planning to do when you graduate?
M: First, I want to get a job as a computer programmer, and then after five years or so, I’d like to start my own business。
W: Sounds good。 I still have three terms to go until I’m done。
M: You'll make it for sure。 Well, see you later.
W: Bye!

M: Hello, Milton Hotel Reservations。 How may I assist you?
W: Hi, I'm calling to make some changes to an existing reservation.
M: Certainly。 Do you have the reservation number?
W: Sure, it's 219.
M: That’s a reservation for Sally Menkel。 Is that right?
W: Yes, that’s right。 I'd like to change the check-in date from September 15 to September 16。
M: Certainly。 I can make that change for you. Is that the only change?
W: No, the check—out date will also change from the 23rd to the 24th。
M: No problem. We have you arriving on the 16th of September and leaving the 24th of September — altogether, eight nights. Will there be anything else?
W: Yes。 Instead of a courtyard room, I'd like a room with a view, preferably on an upper floor。
M: I can certainly change that for you, but there will be a change in the room rate。 The new rate is $199 per night, instead of the original $179。
W: That’s OK。 These are all the changes。 Thank you very much.
M: You're welcome。 Have a nice day!

W: Gordon, I'm going to Keswick in the Lake District this weekend.
M: Really?
W: Yeah, five of us。 Why don't you join us? We’re getting to Keswick on Friday. Then we’re going boating on Saturday。 And on Sunday, we're going to do some shopping。 Then I will take some time to visit my aunt Lucy.
M: You're not going to camp, are you? Isn’t it a bit cold?
W: No, we’re not。 It is a bit cold。 We're staying in a country inn。 It's not like five—star hotels or anything。 But it's really comfortable。
M: Hmm, sounds interesting. You know, it’s the boating that I don’t like.
W: Well, what are you up to?
M: Sit on my sofa all weekend and watch the DVDs I've just bought。 And that will be a busy weekend. I may finish watching Friends.
W: I don’t know how you can do that all weekend, Gordon. I’d get bored.
M: I know, I know. But that’s really what I want to do。

M: Hello。 Welcome to the program。 In America, May and June are the traditional months for graduations。 A listener in China, Wang Ming, who is about to get an engineering degree, wants to know how American college graduates find jobs. Right now, the answer is: not very easily. A latest study on the college job market showed that employers wanted to hire 22% fewer graduates this year than last。 The study also showed that just 20% of those who looked for jobs before graduation have found one by now. This is compared to half of students who had looked for a job by this time two years ago。 But one difference: fewer of this year’s graduates have started to search for jobs。 Engineering graduates were more likely to have started their job search already, and to have accepted a job. This is among the best—paid professions for people with just a college degree。 On average, engineering majors expect to start at about $62,000 a year。
