Why does the student go to see the professor? [br] Why does the professor mention the class syllabus?
Listen to a conversation between a student and his ancient history professor. (S = Student, P = Professor)
S: I know you put a lot of effort into making all the arrangements for the play in New York, getting us the special group discount, plus getting the department to help with the tickets.
P: Well, it’s not like everyday we have the opportunity to attend a production of Aeschylus, The Persians, performed by the National Theater of Greece no less. You know it is the earliest surviving Greek tragedy, the very first one.
S: Oh, I didn’t realize that The Persians was the oldest of all the Greek plays. That’s kind of neat. Aeschylus lived in like the 15th century B.C.E., right?
P: Yes, he lived during a series of wars that the Persian chronicles—the Persian Wars, and that’s what makes this play unusual. It talks about historical events that were occurring more or less around the time it was written. We’ll talk about it in next week’s class.
S: Oh that’s interesting. Is that the only Greek play that talks about like current events at that time?
P: That’s right. Well, the only play that we know of anyway. If other plays write the similar topics, those plays have been lost. But we are getting sidetracked. You wanted to tell me something?
S: Yes. I know you are not going to be too happy about this, but I just don’t think that I would enjoy this play.
P: I am sorry to hear that. Um, what’s the problem?
S: Well, seeing a play in a language I don’t understand, I just don’t think I’d get very much out of it. So I…
P: Well, you’ll surely understand some things. We’ll be studying the play beforehand so you’ll be familiar with it. Anyway, attendance is required. It is in the syllabus. And there’s a short paper on it due too. That’s also mentioned in the syllabus.
S: I sort of misplace my syllabus.
P: Well, you’ll need to get a copy from a classmate. Anyway, the play will have supertitles. That’s common practice nowadays.
S: Supertitles?
P: Like subtitles in movies, but they usually projected them across the top of the stage.
S: Oh, yeah, I know what they are. They had them when our Intro to Music class went to the opera in New York.
P: Well, there you go. See, people go to the opera all the time. They don’t necessarily know the language in which the opera’s been performed. What language was your opera in?
S: Russian. Another language I don’t understand.
P: And… did you enjoy it?
S: Well, it was a little frustrating at first not understanding the words, but once I got past that, yeah, I actually did get a lot out of it.
选项
A、To remind the student of a due date he had forgotten
B、To remind the student of the class requirements
C、To point out that some of the assignments are optional
D、To let the student know that she has some extra copies
答案
B
解析
题目询问教授提到课程大纲的原因。在对话中,学生表示是因为自己听不懂希腊语,所以不想去观看《波斯人》这部剧。对此,教授回应道,attendance is required“需要考勤”和here’s a short paper on it due too “得在规定时间内写一篇小论文”,并提到这两点都课程大纲里规定的。由此判断,B项“提醒学生这是课程要求”符合题意。对话中没有谈到交作业的时间,A项“提醒学生他忘记的交作业时间”错误。attendance is required表明这不是可以选择的,排除C项“指出有些任务是可选的”。D项“让学生知道她还有一些(课程大纲)的复印件”是利用对话提到的copy设置的干扰,教授是叫该学生找同学要一份课程大纲来复印。并没有说自己有多余的。
