听力原文:W: Mike, I'm sorry, but I have to call to tell you... M: What? W: The truth is... Your job is not so well done. M: Are you certain I didn't perform. well in the office? W: Tom, you've received reprimands several for lateness and for using work time for private business. Besides, you use the company car to do things for yourself. M: I know I've been late for times, for my home is a little far away from the company, and I have to travel over two hours to work everyday and sometimes there are traffic jams. I'm really sorry. For others, you may have my words: they won't happen again. W: I'm afraid it's too late. Right now, your tardiness is the least of my problems. M: What do you mean? W: You have gone against file regulations so often, and the board of directors has decided. M: Decided what? Giving me my pink slip? W: Exactly. I'm sorry it had to turn out this way. You're fired right away. (20)
