Conversation Two
W:I wonder if you could tell me a little bit about your job as a radio announcer. What do you actually do and how do you prepare for your job?
M:Well, in the news room I am sitting with reporters and news-subs, as though I am sitting in a newspaper news room.
W:Sorry, what do you mean by news-subs?
M:They are sub-editors. They are the people who write the news stories as they come in. The stories are then passed to the senior duty editor and the assistant editor. As stories go through the chain of people, they are refined, corrected and sorted out until they come finally to me and I have a chance to read through most stories before I go on the air. Of course, sometimes things happen at the last moment and I don't have a chance. So I've just got to do my best, and take a couple of seconds to look through the first few lines before I launch into something. Because it's such a pity if you start off on a bright tone on a story and suddenly realize you are talking about some people having been killed in a road crash. It is very important to just have a quick flip through.
W:There is nothing to mark what is out of entity on your piece of paper?
M:No, I have my own little mark. If it's something sad,I'll put a small cross at the top. That's my little clue. So while I tim working on the news, Tm just absorbing the news and checking pronunciations.
Q12:What does the woman want to know about the man?
细节推断题。对话中,女士向男士提问 “你的工作具体是做什么以及要做什么准备工作”,也就是在问男士的工作是怎么进行的。

Q14:What does the mall say is a big challenge for him?
细节推断题。对话中男士指出通常播音之前有时间可以事先读完大部分的新闻故事,但是最后关头也经常有事情发生,因此并不是每次都有机会能够事先阅读,而事先看一眼就可以避免工作中的错误。由此可见,男士工作中的挑战是在播新闻前没有时间阅读新闻。
