"Professor’s Office"
[br] Why does the professor say this:
Narrator: Listen to part of a conversation on campus between a student and a professor.
Professor: So what did you want to see me about Ernie?
Student: My grade, I’m not doing very well in this class.
Professor: Well, that’s not exactly true. You were doing very well until the last test. Q1
Student: I got a D. Professor Adams, I’ve never gotten a D in my life.., before this, I mean. So
that’s why I’m here. I hope you can give me some advice.
Professor:Well, from my class book, I see that your attendance is excellent. No absences, so
that’s not the problem.
Student: No, I never miss class. I’m a serious student. I just don’t know what happened on that
test.
Professor: Did you bring it? The test?
Student: Yes, I did. Here it is. Professor:Okay. I think I remember this, but there were almost a hundred tests to grade, so let’s
have a look at it.
Student: Thanks.
Professor: Well, Ernie... let’s see... Here it is. Yes, I do recall this test. You didn’t finish it. You Q2
stopped after question 15. So you had 5 questions that were counted wrong because
they...because you didn’t complete the test.
Student: I know didn’twatch the time, and I just couldn’t believe it when you asked us to hand
in the tests.
Professor: Yes, I see. But you did a good job on the questions that you did respond to.
Student: Professor Adams, maybe you won’t believe me, but know the answers to the
questions that I... that... that...
Professor: The ones that you left blank at the end.
Student: Yeah. So now I need some advice about how to bring up my grade because a D is
going to make a big difference.
Professor: This test counts 25 percent so, uh you’re right. It will bring it down at least a letter. Q3
Student: I know.
Professor: Okay then. The first thing is to learn something from this. You have to find a way to
pace yourself through tests or you’re going to have this problem again.
Student: I know, and believe me, I learned that already.
Professor: Okay. That’s good. Now, uh, what about the grade for this class?
Student: I was hoping you might give me a chance to...to maybe do an extra credit assignment. Q4
Professor: Hummm. I don’t know about that.
Student: Oh.
Professor: But here’s what we can do. If you want to finish the test right now, and your answers are
satisfactory, then I’ll add some points to your grade.
Student: You will? I know the answers. Really I...
Professor: ... I can’t give you full credit for your answers. That wouldn’t be fair to the other Q5
students, but I can add some points, and that should help you somewhat.
Student: Wow. This is great.
Professor: Okay. Just take your test over there and finish it. You had about an hour to complete 20
questions, so, uh,... that would be 15 minutes to finish the 5 questions you left blank.
And Ernie... pace yourself.
Student: I will! Thanks. Thanks a lot.
选项
A、Because she doesn’t understand what the man wants her to do
B、Because she has finished the discussion about the man’s problem
C、Because she wants the man to be more specific about his plan
D、Because she does not want to do what the man suggests
答案
D
解析
Listen again to part of the conversation and then answer the following question.
" I was hoping you might give me a chance to...to maybe do an extra credit assignment."
"Hummm. I don’t know about that."
Why does the professor say this:
"Hummm. I don’t know about that."
Her tone indicates that she does not want to do what the man suggests. "I don’t know about that" is an indirect way to say no.
