93. Two weeks of paid vacation in your first year employment, you will also be entitled to medical and dental insurance, but this is something you should discuss with our Personnel Department.
點睛
paid vacation意為“帶薪假期”。短語be entitled to sth.意為“有資格享有……權(quán)利;符合……的資格”,是本句的聽力難點。discuss sth. with sb.意為“與某人討論某事”。
考點歸納
entitle為及物動詞,意為“使享有權(quán)利,使符合資格”,常用于以下結(jié)構(gòu)之中:

Everyone is entitled to basic human rights. 人人都有資格享有基本的人權(quán)。
be entitled sth.意為“命名為,起名為”。如:
My new book is entitled Dream. 我的新書名為《夢想》。
be entitled to do sth.意為“有權(quán)做某事”。如:
