问题 Jenny and Paul must complete their project by  ___________________.
(J=Jenny   P=Paul)
J: Come on Paul. We’ve got to get on and sort out this project for Professor Barclay.
P: Hang on. I want to make sure we’ve got all the information. Now... where are we?
J: Well, today we need to sort out exactly what we’re going to do and how we’re going to divide the work up.
P: OK. How long have we got, by the way?
J: Um... the end of term is April 6th and he said to hand it in on week 8, so that’s March 26th at the latest because the beginning of that week is 22nd. So not long!
P: Right. Have you got the notes there?
J: Yes, he wants us to do a fairly small-scale study, like the last one, on whether or not businesses were offering more benefits to staff. We’ve now got to look at the rise in older workers. Should be fairly straightforward.
P: Yeah, as long as we keep it small. Who’s marking it?
J: Don’t know — sometimes he gets the PhD students to mark it for him.
P: Oh actually it just says here ’a senior lecturer’ and I suppose it’s too much for Professor Barclay to do them all.
J: Yeah. Anyway, how are we going to go about this?
P: Well, we have to decide how big we want it to be and who we’re...
J: Yeah, but I think we must sort out a timetable for the project otherwise nothing will get done.
P: OK. Do you want to do that?
J: Alright. I’ll do it as soon as we finish here.

选项

答案 26 March

解析 录音中出现多个日期,学期末为4月6号,而教授要求在第八周交。所以最晚是在3月26号,因为第八周的周一是22号。此题要注意的是其他数字的干扰,尤其是相似数字的干扰(April 6th)。
