M: Have you received the information sent to course participants about the written work required for evaluation purposes, Joanna?
W: I’m afraid I haven’t.
M: Well, you have the deadline for the submission of these Tutor Marked Assignments, or TMA’s in your course guide, which was posted to all students in advance.
W: I remember I got some information on dates; the deadline is next Monday, right? But I might have to hand in my work a week late. My parents are coming for a few days and I intended to join them.
M: I am very sorry to have to tell you that it’s absolutely imperative to meet requirements at University, Joanna. You should know that if you submit your assignments late they won’t be marked, and this will affect your grade for the course.
W: I didn’t know about that. It’s my first year... [6]So I’d better stay and study, no choice!
M: No choice, Joanna. Now, as to the work itself, you should bear in mind some considerations regarding word length, for example.
W: I know it should be 2000 words long.
M: That’s right, but length doesn’t necessarily indicate quality. Besides, it’s also important to write legibly, so typed work is preferred.
W: OK, thanks, and should I include a bibliography?
M: Definitely, Joanna. [7]Do include all the sources you have drawn your information from, and acknowledge quotations.
W: OK, thank you. Er, one more question, Mr. Robb. I’ve heard about students’ electronic identification cards in Europe. What are they?
M: Well, [8]in some Universities students use a personal electronic identification card to record their entrance and exit to the school campus, as well as their entrance to each class.
W: Wow. That sounds interesting! How does it work?
M: The information is electronically transmitted to a central station where it is available within seconds or minutes. The system stores the time the students use their cards as they enter and leave school or the classroom.
W: I guess it will please some parents who are always worrying about their kids, even when they are at college.
M: Yes, parents responded very positively to the introduction of this card in some places, [9]mainly because they can learn about their child’s daily activities at school, not to mention the added security and discipline that tracking systems provide. After all, as a society, we use cards for everything these days.
W: I suppose teachers can also benefit, no more time devoted to roll-calls.
M: Exactly, Joanna! [10]They will no longer be responsible for their students’ attendance, so they can spend their time and energy on teaching.
W: Thank you very much, Mr. Robb. You’ve been very helpful.
6. What will the woman probably do before next Monday?
7. What should be included in a bibliography?
8. What is the usage of students’ electronic identification cards?
9. Why do parents support the use of the electronic identification card?
10. What do teachers benefit from the electronic identification card?

选项 A、Receive information on TMA’s.
B、Join and stay with her parents.
C、Hand in her work in advance.
D、Stay in school and study.

答案 D

解析 ①选项以动词原形开头,且有代词her,可以预测问题与女士的行为有关。②问题问下周一前女士会做什么。根据对话,下周一是女士上交作业的截止日期,女士提及除了在校学习以外是否没有其他选择,而男士明确表示作业不能迟交,因此下周一前女士最可能在校学习,D项正确。③女士说已经收到了TMA关于日期的信息(got some information on dates),A项“收取有关TMA的信息”错误。女士提出希望推迟交作业而去陪父母的请求,男士用I am very sorry说明此举不可取,B项“与父母待在一起”错误。对话中只提到了女士希望迟交(hand in my work a week late),但并未说到她会提早交(in advance),C项错误。
