问题 Why did the man call the woman?
(Martin=W, Johnson=M)
W: Elizabeth Martin speaking.
M: Dr. Martin, my name is Mark Johnson. My roommate, Benjamin Jones, is in your art history class. Uh-m, Art History 502?
W: Yes.
M: Well, he is sick and won’t be in your class today. He asked me to bring his term paper to your office.
W: Ok. The paper is due by 3 o’clock.
M: I have a class from 1 to 2. I’ll bring it to your office after my class.
W: Well, I have a meeting this afternoon. So you can drop it off with the secretary of the art history department. She’ll see that I get it.
M: Ok. Oh I almost forgot. I’m biology major. But my advisor told me that I need one more humanities course to graduate. I’ve noticed that you are teaching a course on landscape painters next semester. Could you tell me a little bit about it?
W: Sure. Well, it’s a course for non-art majors. We’ll be looking at several different painters and examining their works. We’ll also look at the history and politics of the era in which they lived.
M: That sounds interesting. What else is required?
W: There is no final exam. And there is only one required book. But each student has to give a major presentation about the individual painter at the end of the course.
M: Hmm. It sounds good. Thanks. I’ll do that.

选项 A、He was unable to attend her class.
B、He wanted to deliver something to her office.
C、He wanted to hand in a late assignment.
D、He wanted to drop her course.

答案 B

解析 细节归纳题。Johnson在对话一开始做了自我介绍,并讲明了打电话的原因。因为室友生病不能亲自前去交Martin教授布置的论文,因此他要替室友递交这份论文。B项中用deliver替代了对话中的bring,用不定代词something替换了term paper,尽管这样的替换使得意思不如原来具体,但却与原意不违背,和其他选项比较起来,无疑是最佳的答案。其余3个选项表面看起来与对话相关,但实际都不是Johnson打电话的目的,只是利用原文中的个别单词进行干扰。
