M: Hey, Karen, [12]you are not really reading it, are you?
W: Pardon?
M: The book! You haven’t turned the page in the last ten minutes.
W: No, Jim, I suppose I haven’t. I need to get through it though, but I keep drifting away.
M: [12]So it doesn’t really hold your interest?
W: [12]No, not really. I wouldn’t bother with it, to be honest, but I have to read it for a seminar. I’m at a university.
M: It’s a labor of labor then rather than a labor of love.
W: I should say. I don’t like Dickens at all really, the author. Indeed, [13]I am starting to like the whole course less and less.
M: It’s not just the book. It’s the course as well?
W: Yeah, in a way, although [13]the course itself isn’t really that bad, a lot of it is pretty good, in fact, and the lecturers are fine. [13]It’s me, I suppose. You see, [13]/[15]I wanted to do philosophy rather than English, but my parents talked me out of it.
M: So the courses are OK as such. It’s just that [15]had it been left to you, you would have chosen a different one.
W: Oh, they had my best interests at heart, of course, [14]my parents. They always do, don’t they? [14]They believe that my job prospects would’ve been pretty limited with the degree of philosophy. Plus, they give me a really generous allowance, but I am beginning to feel that I’m wasting my time and their money. They would be so disappointed, though, [15]if I told them I was quitting.
Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
12. Why can’t Karen concentrate on the book?
