W: So, you’re an architect?
M: Yes.
W: Do you work for a public or private organization, or are you self-employed?
M: I’m working for a private design and construction company.
W: How did you start your career?
M: started with the government.
W: Oh, did you? What made you decide to work for the government?
M: Well, it was a matter of chance really. I saw an advertisement for a vacant position in a newspaper, and I thought "Why don’t you try it?" In fact, I have no preferences to where I work, public or private.
W: And do you still have this idea, or…
M: More or less, yes, although I’m now working for a private firm, I worked for the government for about three years.
W: And what made you leave the public sector?
M: Money mainly. You see, I got married, and my wife doesn’t work, and we wanted to start a family right away. So we thought it might be better off if I moved to the private sector. This is why it’s hard for me to be self-employed because self-employed work has the disadvantage that there may be time, or a period of time when you’re unemployed.
W: I see, so did you join this company straight away or…
M: No, I worked in a couple of private firms before I came to this one.
W: Hmm, hmm. Now what qualifications does one have to have to become an architect?
M: Well, you’ve got to have a degree in architecture. That means before you apply to study architecture in any university, you have to pass exams, usually three A-levels with good results.
W: Does one need a scientific background?
M: Well, yes, mainly scientific, but it helps if you have some general arts background too. You know, architecture is not a pure science.
W: Now, if one wants to take up architecture, one has got to be able to draw? Is that really true?
M: Well, it is true that the work of an architect involves a lot of drawing, and to be an architect you must be able to draw. But this doesn’t mean that if you can’t at present draw, you won’t have the opportunity to be an architect, because you can be taught to draw. In fact drawing in architecture is different from drawing in art.
W: Now what qualities do you think make a good architect, apart from being accurate in his drawings?
M: Well, I’m not sure if I can generalise about that. You see architecture is a mixture of theory and practice. So I suppose a good architect should be good at both.
1. What was the man’s first job with?
2. What’s the main reason that the man quit his first job?
3. What is the requirement for one to apply to study architecture in a university?
4. What do we learn about drawing in architecture from the conversation?
5. What does the man say about the job of an architect?
选项
A、It is more theoretical than practical.
B、It is more practical than theoretical.
C、It combines practice and theory.
D、It is attractive and interesting.
答案
C
解析
选项都是it开头,由theoretical,practical等词可推测问题与工作或职业相关。录音最后,男士提到建筑是理论与实践的结合(a mixture of theory and practice)。C项用combines同义替换了mixture,为答案。
