Narrator
Listen to a conversation between a student and her tutor.
Amy Morning, Dr. Carter. I’m sorry to disturb you. But may I speak to you about my course?
Dr. Carter Yes, come in, Amy. But anyway, I haven’t got long, because I have to give a lecture in half an hour.
Amy Alright. I would just like to finish talking about the problem I have with you. I think it won’t take a long time.
Dr. Carter Sure. What’s the problem? Sit down.
Amy Well, I’m having problems with one of my subjects economics. I’m not doing very well and I’m a bit concerned about it.
Dr. Carter You haven’t been doing too well, that’s true. I think you failed your last assignment, didn’t you?
Amy I’ve failed the last one and the one before and I only just scraped through the first one. The problem is that I’m not very interested in economics. I think that’s why I don’t really try and then...
Dr. Carter So what are you saying, Amy?
Amy I really feel that I should drop economics and pick up Spanish again.
Dr. Carter And have you ever dealt with Spanish?
Amy Yeah, I did first year Spanish last year, and I got really good marks.
Dr. Carter So here, I really don’t understand why you took up economics this year then.
Amy Well, everyone told me that economics was more important than a language and I felt it’d be really useful for further study.
Dr. Carter It seems to not be your interest. And are you studying Spanish by yourself?
Amy Well, at first I thought I could keep up my Spanish on my own with a private teacher. The problem is that I just don’t seem to have time to do everything.
Dr. Carter Surely Spanish isn’t too time consuming.
Amy No, it wouldn’t be except that I urn, I’ve got a part-time job in a restaurant three nights a week...I can’t give that up because I really need the money. I just urn, can’t fit it all in.
Dr. Carter Oh, you must have spent a lot on that. Do you think such a part-time job puts too much pressure on your curricular performance?
Amy To some extent, it does definitely.
Dr. Carter We could offer you extra help with the economics if you are willing to stick to it.
Amy No, really Dr. Carter, I don’t think it would be any good. I want to change.
Dr. Carter Yes, I can see that your mind is made up. Well, I have no objection, especially as you have a background in Spanish, but you’ll have to go and see Dr. Brown in the Spanish Department and see whether he’ll accept you or not.
Amy Ok, I’ll go and see him first. Would you be able to have a word with him about it as well, Dr. Carter?
Dr. Carter You can tell him to phone me for a reference if he wants to. I must get to my lecture now. Let me know how you get on.
Amy Thanks, Dr. Carter. I will.
Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer.
1. Why did Amy go to see Dr. Carter?
2. How many assignments has Amy failed?
3. Why did Amy take up economics?
4. Amy is not studying Spanish at present. What does she lack?
5. What does Dr. Carter promise to help Amy?
选项
A、She was unwell.
B、She was worried.
C、She was stressed.
D、She was depressed.
答案
B
解析
本题属于主旨一目的题,考查的是对话的目的而不是对话的内容。这种题一般出现在对话材料中。偶尔也会出现在讲座材料中。题目问:Amy为什么去见Dr.Carlter?从学生说的话“I’m not doing very well and I’m a bit concerned about it”可知,她学得不好,感到担心。对话中concerned一词与选项B中的worried(担忧的,焦虑的)近义,因此选项B为正确答案。选项A(有病的)、C(有压力的)和D(心情忧郁的)都不符合题意。
