问题 Why does the man call the woman?
W: Hello?
M: Hi, Susie?
W: Oh, hi Tom. What’s up?
M: Sorry to be calling you so late but I’m having trouble with the maths assignment.
W: Don’t worry, it’s not that bad. But I do have to say that I haven’t worked this hard on an assignment all term. I’ve already spent more than two hours on it and I’m still not halfway through it.
M: Well, that’s still farther than I’ve gotten. I have no idea even where to start. I was thinking about calling Professor Johnson.
W: Now? But the assignment’s due tomorrow. He’ll wonder why you waited until now to ask for help.
M: This always happens. I mean, when I first got the assignment, I thought it looked ok and I figured I could do it in two hours. And now, it turns out I can’t even figure out how to get started.
W: Oh...well, do you want to come over? I could show you what I’ve worked out so far, and then we could work on the rest together.
M: Are you sure? I hate to interrupt you. I mean, I don’t want to hold you back.
W: It’s OK. I’m sick of working on it alone. And anyway, if I’m thinking out loud, it’ll probably help clarify the muddy parts for me, too.
M: Thanks a lot. I owe you big on this one. I was afraid I was headed for another bad grade.
W: No problem.
M: See you in a few minutes.
W: Okay. Bye.

选项 A、To know what the maths assignment is.
B、To find out their professor’s phone number.
C、To seek help in doing his maths homework.
D、To seek excuses for late hand-in work.

答案 C

解析 细节题。男生打来电话向女同学倾诉看了半天都不知道该怎么下手,要考虑向教授求救了,但是后面两个人商定了要一起完成习题,并没有打算给教授打电话;而男生什么都没有开始的时候,女生都已经做了一半了,所以谈不上他帮助女同学完成作业,所以排除答案D。
