单选题
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] 33-35
Janet's sister is a stewardess for a famous international airline, and Janet wants to become one too. Of course she is still too young. The minimum age for a stewardess is twenty and Janet is only just over sixteen.
For the moment she has taken a job in an office. But she is going to attend evening classes. In particular, she wants to improve her French and she has also decided to take up a second language. This is because foreign languages are essential for a stewardess.
Later on, when she is about eighteen, she plans to work in a hotel for a while. This will not be difficult to arrange because one of her uncles is the manager of a big London hotel. Among other things, she proposes to work in the kitchen and the dining-room. This will be especially valuable experience because an important part of a stewardess' work is to serve and feed the passengers.
Finally, if she has the time, she will go and work in a hospital for a while. Again this will provide more valuable experience.
So, you see, Janet has made up her mind and she is preparing for her career very carefully. But it was not easy for her to decide. She asked a large number of people and they all gave her conflicting advice !
