W: Simon, how does it feel to be retired?
M: Well, not so bad.
W: How have you been spending your time?
M: I’ve been spending more time with my family. I’ve also travelled a bit, you know, off season when everywhere is less crowded and hotels cost less.
W: Great.
M: You know I haven’t stopped work completely,
W: Yes, could you tell us more about this?
M: I’m on a scheme that’s called phased retirement. I had a six-month break from work, after that I could apply for project work with the company I used to work for.
W: How does the scheme work?
M: Well, it’s a trial at the moment. Instead of hiring temporary staff, the company advertises posts on its website that retired employees like myself can access.
W: What sort of works advertised?
M: Well, all sorts of things, really. Administrative work and more specialized work, the sort of thing 1 can do. Some of the projects can last five or six months, and others can just be a couple of days. I can decide more or less when to work, so I can manage my own time.
W: I can see it’s good for you. What does your company get out of this?
M: Well, I still have all my old contacts at work, so I know who to contact to get something done. The company gets flexibility, too. Once the job’s over, that’s it. I’m not on their books any more.
选项

答案
A
解析
Why does Simon find his retired life enjoyable?
主题题。考查对话开头。女士询问男士(Simon)的退休生活如何,男士说“Well,not so bad”(还不错,挺好的),之后又说“I have been spending more time with my family.”(我可以拿出更多的时间跟家人在一起)。所以[A]是正确答案。
