W:Mark really needs to see this article in Psychology Weekly.
M:Why? What’s it on?
W:Reasons for negative behavior patterns—like procrastination, habitual lateness.
M: You’re right. That’s Mark. He’s never on time. So what does it say?
W:That people who are always late often do it for a reason—either conscious or unconscious. It could be an expression of anger and resentment—or a way of resisting authority. It could even be anxiety.
M:Well, I don’t know. In Mark’s case, I think it’s because he wants to be noticed.
W: That’s the next reason in the article—the need for attention. They give the example of movie stars who used to make these grand entrances.
M: That’s not really Mark’s style though—he’s so quiet.
W:What gets me is that he’s late for his friends all the time—but not for other things, like work.
M:Well but they might deduct pay for that.
W:Exactly. You know, sometimes I’m tempted to tell him to come at, say, seven, and everybody else at 7 : 15. Then maybe we wouldn’t have to wait so long.
M:We have to try something. You know, he confessed to me one day that he was even late for his sister’s wedding. She was really angry.
W:I remember that. He was in the wedding—so they couldn’t start until he got there.
M:Maybe you should slip that magazine under his door anonymously. And hope he gets the message.
5. What is the main subject of the magazine article?
6. What do Mark’s friends think is the reason for his problem?
7. What do the speakers say about Mark’s recent behavior?
8. What solution does the woman consider?
选项
A、Trying to get Mark to talk about his problem.
B、Helping Mark relax and be more comfortable in a group.
C、Waiting fifteen minutes and then leaving without Mark.
D、Telling Mark to come earlier than the planned meeting time.
答案
D
解析
“be tempted to”意思是“总想”。W说,她有时总想告诉Mark一个比预定时间早的时间,比如说告诉他7点钟到,告诉别人7:15到,这样大家就不用等他太久,因此正确答案是D。“get the message”意思是“明白,领会”。
