Conversation One
听力原文
M: (1) [It’s my last day at work tomorrow. I’ll start my new job in 2 weeks.] My human resources manager wants to conduct an interview with me before I leave.
W: Ah, an exit interview. Are you looking forward to it?
M: I’m not sure how I feel about it. I resigned because I’ve been unhappy at that company for a long time, but I’m not sure if I should tell them how I really feel.
W: To my way of thinking, there are two main potential benefits that come from unleashing an agitated stream of truth during an exit interview. The first is release. Unburdening yourself of frustration and perhaps even anger to someone who isn’t a friend or close colleague can be wonderfully freeing.
M: And let me guess. The second is that the criticism will, theoretically, help the organization I’m leaving to improve, making sure employees of the future are less likely to encounter what I did?
W: That’s right. But the problem with the company improvement part is that very often it doesn’t happen. (2) [An exit interview is supposed to be private, but often isn’t.] In my company, the information gained from these interviews is often not confidential, and the information is used as dirt against another manager, or can be traded among senior managers.
M: Now you’ve got me rethinking what I’ll disclose in the interview. (3) [There is always a chance that it could affect my reputation and my ability to network in the industry.] It is a pretty small industry after all.
W: Anything you initially gain from the instant satisfaction of telling it like it is, (3) [you might lose down the track by injuring your future career prospects.]
M: Right. (4) [Perhaps I would be better getting things off my chest by going to one of those rate-your-employer websites.]
W: You could. And don’t do the interview at all. Exit interviews are not mandatory.
3. Why does the man want to rethink what he will say in the coming exit interview? (为什么男士想要重新考虑在接下来的离职面谈中他要说的话?)
解析:B。录音中间女士提到,离职面谈中的一些信息并不会保密,会被管理者利用或者交易,男士说那他应该重新考虑在离职面谈中要说的话,女士接着分析说,在离职面谈中畅所欲言得到的片刻满足可能会损害一个人的职业前景。由此可知,男士之所以重新考虑,是因为离职面谈中的信息可能会对职业前景产生不利影响,B项中的adversely affect his future career prospects是对录音中injuring your future career prospects的同义替换,因此选B。
错项排除:录音中并未提到给面试官留下的印象(leave...impression on the interviewer)及顶头上司(immediate superiors)的相关信息,A、C项利用常识进行干扰,故排除。D项利用录音中出现的colleague进行干扰,但录音中是说,对不是朋友或亲密同事的人倾诉沮丧和愤怒会得到极大解脱,并未提到离职面谈会对同事造成伤害,故D项排除。
