W: Good afternoon, Mr. White. You are in my American History 201 class, right? How can I help you today?
M: It’s about my term paper. I know it’s due next Monday, but I was hoping... I don’t think I can get it done by then. [1]Could I please turn it in by the end of next week instead? I have a really good excuse.
W: Oh, I’m sure you do! I’ve been teaching 33 years. Do you know how many excuses I’ve heard? "My dog ate my paper." "My roommate had a party so I couldn’t concentrate." "I have seven papers due on the same day!" "I went home to see my parents and my car broke down." My favorite was a student who told me she "forgot" all about her term paper until the day before it was due. It’s amazing she remembered to come to class.
M: I didn’t forget, madam. I’ve been working on the paper,’ really! Here, I brought my outline and a rough draft. It’s just that... Well, [2]a lot of things have been going on in my life, and I’m having trouble managing things.
W: I see. You know, I assigned that paper four weeks ago, and I’ve been reminding students about it in each class. So, tell me your story. What’s happening in your life?
M: First, about two weeks ago, [3]my roommate found out his mother was real sick. So he’s been really upset, and, uh, I went home with him for a couple of days to see his mom. That caused me to miss biology lab, and I have a huge biology final coming up on Tuesday that I really need to study for this weekend. Then I got the flu last week, and missed a day of class. I tried to work on your paper that day, but I really felt horrible...
W: OK, I can understand that. I’m glad that you’re helping your roommate through a tough time. That’s more important than school work. But all this seems to have happened recently. What about the two weeks after I first assigned the term paper?
M: I guess I didn’t use that time very well. I kind of put off getting started on it.
W: Yes, you did. You know, if I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard a student say that...
M: I’m sorry, Professor. I’ve learned my lesson. If I had spent just a little bit of time each week on the paper, I could have had it done on time. [4]I know now that I need to plan for unexpected things.
W: [5]You seem like a bright, conscientious young man. So I’ll tell you what. This time you can turn in your paper no later than 9 a.m. Friday, right here on my office desk.
M: Thank you, Professor! You bet I will.

选项
A、His paper was eaten by a dog.
B、He has seven papers due on the same day.
C、He has forgotten about the paper.
D、He has difficulty managing things.
答案
D
解析
①录音中提到,学生说自己由于最近事情比较多,没有安排好时间,无法在截止日期前完成学期论文,D项has difficulty managing things是概括表达,故正确。②A“论文被狗吃了”、B“有几篇论文都是同一天要交”和C“忘记了”都是其他学生以前说过的借口。
