听力原文：W: Oh, Rex, I have been looking for you for hours. Where have you been? M: Hi, Judie. I went shopping with my friend. What's up? W: I have this great job lined up to manage the book store at the mall. M: Fantastic! You know what. I've applied fur that position, too. But I was rejected. You're so lucky. So what's the problem? W: Well, one of my professors in my department just told me about a winter internship program that's available. He thinks I might be able to intern in the office of the IBM branch here in town. M: That sounds like a great opportunity too. What are you waiting for? Why not take advantage of it? W: I'd love to, especially as I'm studying computer science. It would be a great way to get some practical experience in my field. M: And you never know, it might lead to something with them after graduation. They are one of the biggest companies in the world. IBM! That's my dream company! W: You're right. But the drawback, is I wouldn't be making nearly as much money as I would be working in the book store, not to mention the discount I could get on books there. M: Forget about the money! We're talking about your future here. W: Yes. I know. But ... M: How much is the internship paid? W: They pay their internship about ＄600 for the whole winter holiday and give free room and board for the holiday. M: Well, if I were you, I would take the internship anyway. You could always get a job during the school year next year to make a few extra bucks. (20)
