[00:30.10]In the following conversation Laura, a university lecturer, is talking with Mary about her job.
[00:38.41]Laura:People think university lecturers don't work very hard.
[00:42.66]I only have to do eight lectures a week, so they imagine that I only work for eight hours!
[00:48.53]In fact, I work much longer hours than a secretary in an office.
[00:53.78]I get up every morning before seven-and I hate getting up early-and I never go to bed before midnight.
[01:01.49]I work better late at night.
[01:03.79]Mary:But of course you have much longer holidays, Laura.
[01:07.28]Laura:Oh, I'm not complaining. It's more pleasant to work in the university than in an office.
[01:13.33]I love my work. I like lecturing and I'm keen on doing research.
[01:17.98]I don't like correcting essays very much, but I enjoy talking to the students.
[01:23.88]I'd hate to have to work the same hours every day, and do a boring, repetitive job.

[01:34.68]Mary:What takes up most of your time?
[01:37.99]Laura:Reading and preparing lectures.
[01:40.73]Preparing a lecture is like cooking.
[01:43.57]My mother always says it takes two hours to prepare a good meal, and ten minutes to eat it. (202 words)

[03:50.98]I was lying out there for about four days before they found me.
[03:55.33]They told me later that they had almost given me up for dead.
[03:59.65]Anyway, they got me back to the hospital, and three months later I was flying again.
