听力原文:W: Hey, Jim, What a coincidence! Long time no see. M: Yeah, me too. Hey, just between old friends I got to tell you. You don't look that well. Are you sick or something? W: Well, not really. It's the same old story of the life of an overworked undergraduate student. I am up to my neck on this project. I am working on a project that has to be done by the end of the month. M: Can't you speak to your professor about that? Maybe he would allow an extension and you will then have some breathing space. W: Fat chance. My professor is one of those workaholic types and he expects everyone that works with him to be the same way. You know, sometimes he sleeps 4 hours a night but can still keep going during the day. M: Wow, sounds like your professor is really nuts. You know I don't mind working hard but not to the point of killing myself. Hope you can get your project done without any hitches. W: What about you? I heard the faculty is building another building on campus. A big project it seems by the looks of things and nearly completed I think. M: Well, not quite there yet. They still have not decided whether they should move there or not. The Dean Wants me to mark papers and do some administration work for them. I have to make a decision by the end of this week. W: That is a tough decision, isn't it? I would jump on the offer if I had one. To work with some of these academic types must be interesting. M: Sure it is. I would not think twice if I didn't have such a heavy load this semester. Besides, my girlfriend isn't happy about my always spending time at school. W: I can understand how your girlfriend feels. Maybe you can ask for a light load. Perhaps you should request to work only on certain days. M: That's true. Then I wouldn't have to work under a workaholic professor anymore. W: Hey, Jim, Do you think I have any chance of getting some work there? M: Hmm... are you serious about working there? I thought you were joking. (20)
