M: (8)I know the Japanese have a reputation for working hard, so lets say 70. W: OK. I will let you know the answer at the end of the programme. I was askin

28、g that question because today we are talking about when is it time to stop workinganother way of saying to stop is to quit work. M: Yes. Mary, the official word for stopping work is retiring.

29、inking about retirement John? M: No, not yet. like many of us, we still have many years of work to do. I know the feeling. Giving up workor retiringis usually a financial decision. W: You mean you can only do it if you have enough money to live your life without having to go to work? So, when would

30、you like to retire John? M: (9)I would like to retire at the age of 60, I think. Then I can get my pensiona regular payment from savings I make each month. And later I will get a state pensiona payment from the government. Now, how about you Mary? W: Its not really about the money for meI just want

31、to work forever. (10-1)I get job satisfaction and as long as I enjoy it, Ill keep doing it, John. M: (10-2)Job satisfactionthat is a good reason. W: I know many people who do their job for the love of itbut sometimes you have to say enough is enoughyou have done your best and you cant carry on anymo

32、re. Now its time to give you the answer to todays question. Earlier I asked what the official age of retirement is in Japan. M: I said it was 70. W: (11)You were wrong. It is actually 60.

34、d habits? M: Of course not. Im perfect, Ive no habits that are bad. Yes, I do have some bad habits. (12)One of my bad habits is fidgeting and I think Im a very high energy person, so especially when Im on the phone, mixed with my slightly obsessive compulsive tendencies, I tend to arrange all the th

35、ings on a desk. If there are pens and books and different things on the desk, I would be turning them and arranging them in order and pretty much always using my hands and keeping them busy. Although this might not be such a bad habit, (13)perhaps for people who are with me or next to me they might

36、be a little bit uncomfortable, because it seems like, you know, Im a bit nervous or, you know, have something on my mind so. W: Not in confidence for your speech, yeah. M: Right, in fact thats not the case, but what happens is that I start playing with things. W: Ive seen you do that before. M: Oh,

37、have you? W: Yeah. M: Well, then I guess that really shows it is one of my bad habits. You know, I think I do that to focus, because while Im speaking to somebody or while Im on the phone, I arrange things on the desk and that is kind of metaphorically me arranging my thoughts in my head, which is p

38、robably where this habit has come from. W: I see. Yeah, do you have any other bad habits other than fidgeting? M: Well, maybe a bad habit is driving quickly and Im not sure if thats considered a bad habit. When I get behind the wheel of a car, I sometimes get impatient and (14)that impatience drives

39、 me to put more weight on the gas pedal. In turn I go faster and of course speeding is not a good thing especially when you get pulled over by the police. So thats a bad habit that I might have to work on. W: Yeah, definitely. (15)You dont want to lose your licence. M: No. Questions 12 to 15 are bas

47、big difference between public and private in American higher education involves money. Public colleges and universities are less expensive because they get money from the states that started them to educate local citizens.
