W: English Writing Center. How can I help you?
M: Hi. I got a pamphlet about the English Writing Center today, and I’m interested in the summer program mentioned in it. So I’m calling to find out more information about it.
W: Then what would you like to know?
M: For example, what kind of courses do you offer?
W: Well, first of all, the English Writing Center is established by the English Department, and the purpose of our program is to provide extra English writing training to the students in the English Department. Because of the space limit, we’re not able to accept the applications from students who are not in the department.
M: I see. Um, I’m from this department, but I’m not a full-time student. Am I still eligible for this program?
W: Yeah. Absolutely. We accept all the students in the department, both part-time and full-time. Well, let me tell you the courses we provide. Two courses are offered this summer. One is Creative Writing, which is designed to help students who want to become writers. The other is Academic Writing, which is to provide the instruction or the guidance about how to write a thesis.
M: That sounds great. I’m a junior student now. Next year I would have to write a thesis so as to graduate. The Academic Writing course is definitely the best choice for me. Can you tell me what days the classes are on?
W: For Academic Writing course?
M: Yep.
W: There are two classes each week, from July 1st to July 30th. One is on Tuesday from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. and the other is on Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.
M: I would be available then. How do I apply? And what is the application deadline?
W: Well, we can send you an application and you can send it back to us by regular mail. Another choice is that you fill out the online application at our website. No matter which way you choose, please make sure you submit the application before this Friday, April, 22nd. So you’d better make the decision earlier.
M: I got it. The sooner, the better. Are there other materials I would need to send in addition to the application form?
W: No. All the information we need is in the application form. Just make sure you answer all the questions.
M: Alright.
W: Ah, one more thing, you would need to pay a $10 non-refundable application fee. We accept credit cards or cash.
M: Cash may be better for me. Well, I think that’s about it. Thank you for your help.
W: No problem and please don’t hesitate to call again if you have any other questions.
M: Okay. Goodbye.
W: Bye.

答案 A

解析 ①选项都是不定式结构,由此预测该题可能问目的。②A项中的extra English writing training是对话开头工作人员告诉学生的项目目的,也是本题的正确答案。③B项“教学生怎样成为作家”和C项“指导如何写论文”分别是创意写作和学术写作两门课程的目的,不够全面。D项“帮助学术写作不好的学生”未在对话中出现,可以直接排除。
