听力原文： A: You are Blakey, are you？ Take a seat. I saw you took your 'A' levels in English, French and History, and continued with the Arts at university. What has prompted you to want to change to medicine？
B: Well, I've always, even at school, been interested, but it was a big decision to take, and I wasn't sure at the time I had the right temperament. I really wanted to write.
A: So the fact is you'd rather be a writer than a doctor？
B: Not necessarily. It might have been true once, but for some time now my mind's been set on becoming a doctor.
A: But you are capable of a change of heart.
B: I'm sorry, did you mean that as a question？
A: Well, no, I don't think I am at all. And you left university without taking a degree, is that right？
B: Yes.
A: Why was this？
B: Looking back, I reckon I took on too much, too many activities.
A: Could you explain to us what these activities were？
B: I produced several plays for the college dramatic society; I spoke at the Union debates, and did a bit of social work.
A: Social work？
B: Yes.
A: And if your application were successful, could you support yourself？ You have no grant？
B: No.
A: Have you any private means？
B: I think I could manage all right.
A: How could you manage？
B: I had a part-time job during vacations, which enabled me to save…
A: Could you tell us, the weekly income？
B: Er, that's about 85 dollars.
A: What are your interests？ How do you spend your spare time？
B: Once, I even took part in a fishing match.
A: Do you play rugby？
B: No, I was at a soccer school.
A: Did you ever win any prizes at anything？
B: No.
A: Have you any members of your family been in the medical profession？
