W: What’s going on with you lately? You seem so distracted, like you aren’t really listening to anything I say.
M: I know. I’m sorry. I can’t seem to focus on anything, because I still haven’t decided if I should accept the offer for that PhD program in London, or if I should take the job offer in New York.
W: Look, it’s a tough decision. But you’re running out of time, aren’t you? I thought you said the company expected an answer by the end of the month.
M: Actually, it’s the beginning of next month for the job, but the university needs a decision by the end of the week. So I have to act quickly.
W: You definitely need advice for an important decision like this. So who have you talked to about it? What does your family think? And your advisor for your master’s program?
M: I’ve asked their advice and that’s part of the problem. My parents want me to get the degree, but my advisor thinks it’s time for me to get more work experience.
W: What do you mean by part of the problem? Oh, wait. It’s your girlfriend, isn’t it? You’ve been dating since your first year of university, so that’s six years now. She must have an opinion about all this. I mean, isn’t it time for you to think about getting married?
M: Well, I do want to get married, but she thinks we need to wait until we’ve launched our careers. Plus, she’s not sure what she’ll be doing next year. She’s considering a job in England and one in Australia. And her parents are pushing for the latter.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. Why does the man seem to be distracted?
13. What does the woman say the man should do?
14. What does the man say is part of his problem?
15. Why doesn’t the man’s girlfriend agree to get married right now?
选项
A、He has a difficult decision to make.
B、He has been overworked recently.
C、He has just quarreled with his girlfriend.
D、He has just too many things to attend to.
答案
A
解析
目的原因题。女士问男士最近怎么了,因为男士看起来心不在焉,没有在听她说话。男士道歉后解释说,他无法集中精力是因为他仍然无法在“去伦敦攻读博士”还是“接受纽约的一份工作”之间做出决定。由此可知,男士是因为一个艰难的决定而心不在焉。
