Conversation Two

听力原文

W: I’m going to start looking for another job. I can’t see myself getting an opportunity to progress at my company anytime in the near future. (12) [And I really think my skills and abilities deserve a higher salary.] 

M: You’re not going to quit, are you?

W: I’m thinking I might as well. Then I can devote more time and energy to finding a better position at another company.

M: But you’ve been at your present company less than two years, haven’t you? This will be the third time you’ve left a job in the last five years. (13) [If you do several jobs in a relatively short span of time, prospective employers might perceive that you lack loyalty.] That could make them wary and reluctant to employ you. 

W: Unfortunately, loyalty doesn’t pay. Even if I get a promotion at my company, it’s likely to be less sizable than if I were to get a job elsewhere. (14) [And even if I get a promotion, I’m not guaranteed to get a raise.] I had that experience at another company I worked at.

M: They wanted you to take on more work and responsibility but for the same amount of money?

W: More or less, yes. The way I see it, (15) [through having different jobs, I’ve gathered a lot of experience in different jobs and in different industries.]

M: But potential employers might worry that, that experience is not deep, or thorough enough. 

W: Perhaps, but I feel pretty confident that I can sell myself. You know what they say, “Fortune favors the brave.” 

12. What makes the woman think about changing her job?

解析：A。根据选项中的人称代词She和salary、job、work等，推测本题可能与某位女士的工作有关。女士在录音开头提到，她真的觉得以自己的技术和能力应该得到一份更高的薪水，因此A选项符合题意，为正确答案。

错项排除：录音中并没有提到女士不能胜任目前的工作，也没有讨论加班问题，因此B和C两项可以排除。D选项利用录音原词another company作干扰，但录音中说的是女士辞职后就有更多的时间和精力去别的公司找一份更好的工作，而不是已经在另一家公司找到了工作，因此D选项错误。
