问题  
M: Hi, Mrs, Dupree. You asked me to come by?
W: Oh, yes, Clinton. Thanks for coming in. How is it going?
M: Not too bad. I thought I’d have it tough after changing universities, but I’ve been able to catch up with my academics, and I’ve even managed to make a couple of friends. I don’t know how since I haven’t really been out that much.
W: Well, it’s good to hear that about your classes. Actually, I was just chatting with your journalism professor, and she told me that she was impressed with your writing skills and that it would be such a shame to keep it in the confines of the classroom during your stay here at the university.
M: She said that? Well, I’m really happy to hear that. Well, yeah, of course, I intend to write for a newspaper when I graduate.
W: No, she didn’t mean that. She thinks you should apply for the campus newsletter. That’s why I called you here.
M: What? Whoa, that’s a big step for me. I never even tried out for the newsletter in my former college and I’m only a sophomore with not that much experience in writing.
W: Yes, yes, she knows all that, but your professor thinks you should work for the newsletter. She said you’d be great in features. When I heard that I just had to talk to you.
M: But don’t they have enough writers at the newsletter? What would they do with a beginner like me?
W: I see you’re in need of a bit of confidence, young man. Listen, why don’t you just go over there and give it a try? Let’s just see how it goes, what do you say?
M: OK, if you say so.
Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
13. Why does the woman ask the man to come by?
14. What did the man worry about when he was going to change universities?
15. What can be inferred about the man?

选项 A、To find out what he is interested in.
B、To help him choose an out-of-class activity.
C、To encourage him to try out for a college newsletter.
D、To talk about the articles he wrote in his journalism class.

答案 C

解析 选项均为不定式短语,其中的encourage him,help him和talk about表明,问题可能是关于女士找男士做某事的目的。女士说男士的新闻学老师对他的写作技巧印象深刻,认为他应该申请加入大学校报(apply for the campus newsletter),所以女士把男士叫来,就是要跟男士讨论这件事情,并通过反问句why don’t you just go over there andgive it a try建议并鼓励男士尝试申请加入大学校报,故答案为C)。
