B – Giải thích đáp án Sally: Good morning. Thanks for coming in to see us here at the agency, Joe. I’m one of the agency representatives, and my name’s Sally Baker. Joe: Hi Sally. I think we spoke on the phone, didn’t we? Sally: That’s right, we did. So thank you for sending in your CV. We’ve had quite a carefullook at it and I think we have two jobs that might be suitable for you. Joe: ОК. Sally: The first one is in a company based in North London. They’re looking for an administrative assistant. Joe: OK. What sort of company is it? Sally: They’re called Home Solutions and they design and make furniture (Q1). Joe: Oh, I don’t know much about that, but it sounds interesting. Sally: Yes, well as I said, they want someone in their office, and looking at your past experience it does look as if you fit quite a few of the requirements. So on your CV it appears you’ve done some data entry? Joe: Yes Sally: So that’s one skill they want. Then they expect the person they appoint to attend meetings(Q2). and take notes there … Joe: OK. I’ve done that before, yes. Sally: And you’d need to be able to cope with general admin. Joe: Filing, and keeping records and so on? That should be OK. And in my last job I also had to manage the diary (Q3). Sally: Excellent. That’s something they want here too. I’d suggest you add it to your CV – I don’t think you mentioned that, did you? Joe: No Sally: So as far as the requirements go, they want good computer skills, of course, and they particularly mention spreadsheets. Joe: That should be fine. Sally: And interpersonal skills – which would be something they’d check with your references. Joe: I think that should be OK, yes. Sally: Then they mention that they want someone who is careful and takes care with details(Q4) – just looking at your CV, I’d say you’re probably alright there. Joe: I think so, yes. Do they want any special experience? Sally: I think they wanted some experience of teleconferencing. Joe: I’ve got three years’ experience of that. Sally: Let’s see, yes, good. In fact they’re only asking for at least one year (Q5), so that’s great. So is that something that might interest you? Joe: It is, yes. The only thing is, you said they were in North London so it would be quite a long commute for me. Sally: ОК. Sally: So the second position might suit you better as far as the location goes; that’s for a warehouse assistant and that’s in South London. Joe: Yes, that would be a lot closer. Sally: And you’ve worked in a warehouse before, haven’t you? Joe: Yes. Sally: So as far as the responsibilities for this position go, they want someone who can manage the stock, obviously, and also deliveries (Q6). Joe: That should be OK. You’ve got to keep track ofstuff, but I’ve always been quite good with numbers. Sally: Good, that’s their first requirement. And they want someone who’s computer literate, which we know you are. Joe: Sure. Sally: Then they mention organisational skills. They want someone who’s well organised. Joe: Yes, I think I am. Sally: And tidy(Q7)? Joe: Yes, they go together really, don’t they? Sally: Sure. Then the usual stuff, they want someone who can communicate well both orally and in writing. Joe: OK. And for the last warehouse job I had, one of the things I enjoyed most was being part of a team(Q8). I found that was really essential for the job. Sally: Excellent. Yes, they do mention that they want someone who’s used to that, yes. Now when you were working in a warehouse last time, what sorts of items were you dealing with? Joe: It was mostly bathroom and kitchen equipment, sinks and stoves and fridges. Sally: So you’re OK moving heavy (Q9) things? Joe: Sure. I’m quite strong, and I’ve had the training. Sally: Good. Now as far as experience goes, they mention they want someone with a licence, and that you have experience of driving in London – so you can cope with the traffic and so on. Joe: Yes, no problem. Sally: And you’ve got experience of warehouse work … and the final thing they mention is customer (Q10) service. I think looking at your CV you’re OK there. Joe: Right. So what about pay? Can you tell me a bit more about that, please … C – Từ vựng

B – Giải thích đáp án Hazel: Tom, could I ask you for some advice, please? Tom: Yes of course, if you think I can help. What’s it about? Hazel: It’s my first media studies assignment, and I’m not sure how to go about it. You must have done it last year. Tom: Is that the one comparing the coverage of a particular story in a range of newspapers? Hazel: That’s right. Tom: Oh yes, I really enjoyed writing it. Hazel: So what sort of things do I need to compare? Tom: Well, there are several things. For example, there’s the question of which page (Q21) of the newspaper the item appears on. Hazel: You mean, because there’s a big difference between having it on the front page and the bottom of page ten, for instance? Tom: Exactly. And that shows how important the editor thinks the story is. Then there’s the size(Q22) – how many column inches the story is given, how many columns it spreads over. Hazel: And I suppose that includes the headline. Tom: It certainly does. It’s all part of attracting the reader’s attention. Hazel: What about graphics (Q23) – whether there’s anything visual in addition to the text? Tom: Yes, you need to consider those, too, because they can have a big effect on the reader’s understanding of the story – sometimes a bigger effect than the text itself. Then you’ll need to look at how the item is put together: what structure (Q24) is it given? Bear in mind that not many people read beyond the first paragraph, So what has the journalist put at the beginning? And if, say, there are conflicting opinions about something, does one appear near the end, where people probably won’t read it? Hazel: And newspapers sometimes give wrong or misleading information, don’t they? Either deliberately or by accident. Should I be looking at that, too? Tom: Yes, if you can. Compare what’s in different versions, and as far as possible, try and work out what’s true and what isn’t. And that relates to a very important point: what’s the writer’s purpose (Q25), or at least the most important one, if they have several. It may seem to be to inform the public, but often it’s that they want to create fear, or controversy, or to make somebody look ridiculous. Hazel: Gosh, I see what you mean. And I suppose the writer may make assumptions (Q26) about the reader. Tom: That’s right- about their knowledge of the subject, their attitudes, and their level of education, which means writing so that the readers understand without feeling patronised. All of that will make a difference to how the story is presented. Hazel: Does it matter what type of story I write about? Tom: No – national or international politics, the arts … Anything, as long as it’s covered in two or three newspapers. Though of course it’ll be easier and more fun if it’s something you’re interested in and know something about. Hazel: And on that basis a national news item would be worth analysing – I’m quite keen on politics (Q27), so I’ll try and find a suitable topic. What did you choose for your analysis, Tom? Tom: I was interested in how newspapers express their opinions explicitly, so I wanted to compare editorials in different papers, but when I started looking. I couldn’t find two on the same topic (Q28) that I felt like analysing. Hazel: In that case, I won’t even bother to look. Tom: So in the end I chose a human interest story – a terribly emotional story about a young girl who was very ill, and lots of other people – mostly strangers – raised money so she could go abroad for treatment. Actually, I was surprised – some papers just wrote about how wonderful everyone was, but others considered the broader picture, like why treatment wasn’t available here. Hazel: Hmm, I usually find stories like that raise quite strong feelings in me! I’ll avoid that (Q29). Perhaps I’ll choose an arts topic (Q30), like different reviews of a film, or something about funding for the arts – I’ll think about that. Tom: Yes, that might be interesting. Hazel: OK, well thanks a lot for your help, Tom. It’s been really useful. Tom: You’re welcome. Good luck with the assignment, Hazel.
