M: Hi, Joy. I saw you at registration yesterday. I drove right through, but you were standing in a long line.
F: Yeah. I waited an hour to sign up for a distance-learning course.
M: Distance learning? Never heard of it.
F: Well, it’s new this semester. It’s only open to computer majors. But I bet it’ll catch on else where. Yesterday, over a hundred students signed up. M:  Well, what is it?
F: It’s an experimental course. All I have got to do is watch a ten-week series of televised lessons. The department shows them seven different times a day and in seven different locations. M:  Don’t you ever have to meet with professor?
F: Yeah. After each part of the series I have to talk to her and the other students on the phone, you know, about our ideas. Then we’ll meet on campus three times for reviews and exams.
M: It sounds pretty non-traditional to me. But I guess it makes sense, considering how many students have jobs. It must really help with their schedules, not to mention how it will cut down on traffic.
F: You know, last year my department did a survey and they found out that 80 percent of all computer majors were employed.
M: Look, I’ll be working three days a week next semester and I’d better either reduce the number of my classes or try this out.
F: The only thing is: doesn’t it seem impersonal though? I mean, I miss having class discussions and hearing what other people think.
M: Well, I guess that’s why phone contact’s important. Anyway, it’s an experiment.
F: Maybe I’ll end up hating it.
M: Maybe. But I’ll be curious to see how it works up.

选项 A、The tuition fee is lower.
B、It is more flexible.
C、The professors are more famous.
D、It helps to reduce traffic jams.

答案 B

解析 从原文这一句"It must really help with their schedules,not to mention how it will cut down on traffic.”可以得知远程教育对学生的日程安排帮助很大,也就是说灵活性较好。后半句是说可以降低交通费用,而不是减少交通堵塞。
