M: Hey, Karen, you are not really reading it, are you?
W: Pardon?
M: The book!You haven’t turned the page in the last ten minutes.
W: No, Jim, I suppose I haven’t. I need to get through it though, but I keep drifting away.
M: So it doesn’t really hold your interest?
W: No, not really. I wouldn’t bother with it, to be honest, but I have to read it for a seminar. I’m at a university.
M: It’s a labor of labor then rather than a labor of love.
W: I should say. I don’t like Dickens at all really, the author. Indeed, I am starting to like the whole course less and less.
M: It’s not just the book. It’s the course as well?
W: Yeah, in a way, although the course itself isn’t really that bad, a lot of it is pretty good, in fact, and the lecturers are fine. It’s me, I suppose. You see, I wanted to do philosophy rather than English, but my parents talked me out of it.
M: So the courses are OK as such. It’s just that had it been left to you, you would have chosen a different one.
W: Oh, they had my best interests at heart, of course, my parents. They always do, don’t they? They believe that my job prospects would’ve been pretty limited with the degree of philosophy. Plus, they give me a really generous allowance, but I am beginning to feel that I’m wasting my time and their money. They would be so disappointed, though, if I told them I was quitting.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. Why can’t Karen concentrate on the book?
13. Why is Karen starting to like the course less and less?
14. Who thinks Philosophy graduates have limited job opportunities?
15. What is Karen thinking of doing?
