Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard
W: So John, I hear you and Arthur share a job, don’t you?
M: Yes. We’ve shared a sales job at Sonatech for about two years now。
W: Well, how do you divide up your schedule?
M: You know we are both sales representatives, and we take orders over the phone. When we
started job sharing it was difficult, because we both worked all day Monday. I worked Tuesday and Thursday and Arthur worked Wednesday and Friday. The problem was that when I was in the office on Tuesday. I would talk to people, then they would call back on Wednesday with a question. But Arthur couldn’t answer the question and he couldn’t ask me about it because I wasn’t in the office. So he had to ask the people to call me back the next day, Thursday. Of course, they didn’t like to wait until the next day to have their question answered。
W: Yes, that sounds like a problem。
M: So, finally we decided that Arthur would work in the mornings and I would work in the
afternoons. Now if someone calls with the question for me in the morning, Arthur tells them
to call me in the afternoon. This way, people get their questions answered the same day。
W: What do you do about vacations?
M: Well, Sonatech gives the usual two weeks of vacation to full-time employees, I take a week
and Arthur takes a week。
W: It sounds like job sharing has worked out well for you。
M: Yes, it has. We are both happy with it。

Q20. What problem did John and Arthur have when they started job sharing?

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard
W: May I see your license, please?
M: But officer, did I do something wrong?
W: Do you mean to say you didn’t see the speed limit sign back there?
M: Um, no, madam, I guess I didn’t。
W: In other words, you drove by too fast to read it. The sign says35m/h. A school is just nearby,
you know?
M: Don’t get me wrong, but my speedometer didn’t read much faster than that。
W: Then, why is it that my radar showed you are going 45? Let me put it in another way. I’m
going to give you a ticket. Again, may I see your license, please?
M: Here it is, officer. But let me explain. I was late for an important appointment and I was
worried that I wouldn’t make it on time. So.。。
W: Uha, just a minute, here. Your license is no longer valid. You should have renewed it two
weeks ago. I’m going to have to write you up for that, too。
M: What? Really?
W: Your license becomes invalid on your birthday and that was two weeks ago according to the
date here. You are in violation of the law—driving without a valid license。
M: I’m sorry, madam. I hadn’t realized that。
W: Here’s the ticket for not having a valid license. But I’m only going to give you a warning about
exceeding the speed limit. Be careful next time。
M: Yes, madam, officer, I will. Thank you。
