听力原文：M: Morning, Brenda.

W: Good morning, Mr. Browning.

M: Er, did you, did you put that ad in yesterday？

W: Yes, yesterday afternoon.

M: The ad for a junior sales manager, I mean.

W: Yes, it went into the Standard and the Evening News.

M: That's good. Erin, well...

W: What kind of person have you got in mind for this job？

M: Oh, well, somebody fairly young, you know, twenty something, like 21, or 25.

A man, I think.

W: A man？

M: We really need a man for the position. Yes, I mean, it's really too demanding. The sort of situations they get into are much too difficult for a young woman to deal with, erm...

W: Erm, what sort of a young man have you got in mind？

M: Oh, you know, a good education, polite, responsible, and easy to get along with.

What I don't, want is one of those young men just out of university, with exaggerated ideas of his own importance.

W: Yes, erm, what sort of education are you actually looking for？

M: Well, you know, a couple of A levels. Must have English, of course.

W: Yes, I think you're asking quite a lot. I mean you're not really prepared to pay all...

M: No, I'm not prepared to give him a big salary to start with. Nevertheless, I want someone with plenty of ambition, plenty of drive. You know, not looking at the clock all the time.

W: Well sir, I wish you the best of luck and hope you have some very successful interviews.

M: Well, yes？

W: Because personally I think you're asking an awful lot.
