Conversation 1
W: I have really amazing news. I just got a text message from my bank, saying my salary has been deposited in my account.
M: Getting paid as good. But I don't understand why you're so excited. It happens every month.
W: Well, I've been working for a few years. In fact, I worked all through university, but I only had part time jobs then. So this is the first time I've ever been paid for a month of full time work.
M: Well, then you must feel great. I mean, it's been two decades, but I can still remember when I got my first real salary. I was happy for days. I felt like it was a small fortune, even though it wasn't.
W: I've never earned so much money before. And there's so many things I'd like to do with it. What did you do with your first pay?
M: I bought a new suit for work and took my parents to a nice restaurant to celebrate. Maybe you could do the same.
W: I have enough professional clothes. And my parents are across the country. So seeing them is impossible. But some people from the office are members of a gym. I want to join. And my university classmates are arranging a trip to visit our old campus, and I'd love to go with them, but I can't afford both.
M: If I were you. I join the gym because it's a good way to stay healthy, and it might help you build a stronger relationship with your colleagues. And good relationships are key to a successful career.
W:Hm. You're right. Thanks for the advice. I'm taking it.

在对话中,男士提到,虽然已经过去二十年了,但他仍然记得自己拿到第一笔真正意义上的薪水时的切身感受。由此可知,男士的第一份全职工作是二十年前,故本题选B项。
在对话中间部分,女士问男士是如何处置他的第一份工资的,男士回答自己买了一套工作时穿的新西装并带自己的父母去了一家不错的餐厅庆祝,故本题选D项。
在对话结尾处,女士提到她想用第一份工资做两件事情,一个是去一家有同事是会员的健身房里健身,另外一个是参观之前大学校园的旅行。但第一份薪水的预算只能支持她做其中的一件事,男士 建议她应该去健身房健身,一则有益身体健康,二则有助于女士与同事建立更牢固的关系,而女士说她会采纳男士的建议,综上所述,本题选C项。
