M: Hello, Professor Johnson.
W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work on today?
M: Well, the problem is that this writing assignment isn’t coming out right. What I thought I was writing on was to talk about what a particular sport means to me—one I participate in.
W: What sport did you choose?
M: I decided to write about cross-country skiing.
W: What are you going to say about skiing?
M: That’s the problem. I thought I would write about how peaceful it is to be out in the country.
W: So why is that a problem?
M: As I start describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods, I keep mentioning how much effort it takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn’t as easy as some people think. It takes a lot of energy. But that’s not part of my paper, so I guess I should leave it out. But now I don’t know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you have to work for it. It all fits together. It’s not like just sitting down somewhere and watching the clouds roll by. That’s different.
W: Then you’ll have to include that in your point. The peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why leave that out? Part of your point you knew beforehand, but part you discovered as you wrote. That’s common, right?
M: Yeah, I guess so …
Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
9. What is the topic of the man’s writing assignment?
10. What problem does the man have while working on his paper?
11. What does the woman say is common in writing papers?
选项 A、He can’t find good examples to illustrate his point.
B、He can’t find a peaceful place to do the assignment.
C、He can’t decide whether to include the effort part of skiing.
D、He doesn’t know how to describe the beautiful country scenery.
答案 C
解析 选项中的He can’t find examples，assignment，can’t decide和how to describe表明，本题可能考查男士在写作过程中碰到的问题。由对话中男士提到的I don’t know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you have to work for it可知．男士不知道应不应该将滑雪的艰辛写进论文里，故答案为C)。由女士的回答Then you’ll have to include that(那你必须包括那一点)可进一步确定答案。转折处常设为考点，其后内容往往为答案所在，故听音时应加以留意。
