六下英语课文听力原文

　　M: I got two letters this morning with Job Office, one from the Polytechnic, and the other from the Language School in Pistoia, Italy.

　　W: So youre not sure which to go for?

　　M: Thats it. Of course, the conditions of work are very different: the Polytechnic is offering a two year contract which could be renewed, but the Language School is only offering a years contract and thats a different minus. It could be renewed, but youll never know.

　　W: I see. So its much less secure. But you dont need to think too much about steady jobs when youre only 23.

　　M: Thats true.

　　W: What about the salaries?

　　M: Well, the Pistoia job pays much better in the short-term. Ill be getting equivalent about 22, 000 pounds a year there, but only 20, 000 pounds at the Polytechnic. But only hours are different. At the Polytechnic, Id have to do 35 hours a week, 20 teaching and 15 administration whereas the Pistoia School is only asking for 13 hours teaching.

　　W: Um.

　　M: Then the type of teaching is so different.

　　W: The Polytechnics are all adults and mostly preparation for exams, like the Cambridge certificates. The Language School wants me to do a bit exam preparation, but also quite a lot of work in companies and factories and a couple of childrens classes. Oh, and a bit of literature teaching.
