Why is Rachel coming to see Dr. Jones? [originaltext]M: Come in. Ah, good mornin

M: Come in. Ah, good morning, Rachel. Have you come to talk about your extended essay?
W: That’s right Dr. Jones. I wanted to ask what you thought about my decision on the subject.
M: Yes, you initially wanted to write about working conditions in 19th century factories but you were later contemplating looking at the conditions inside hospitals in 19 th century northern towns.
W: That’s right. I thought about it for a long time and weighed up the pros and cons and I didn’t decide for ages.
M: Well, I think you were right to stick with your first idea. There’re so many better sources available on the subject. There are plenty of articles in magazines and the odd TV and radio programme on the other subjects but everything is rather superficial: there’s no real academic knowledge to draw on.
W: Yes, I found that out. I found lots of books but nothing really to help me: even on the internet. In the end, when I decided on my first choice topic I found lots of really good stuff in magazines , books and the internet. Particularly one book which is the major reference that you’ll see quoted all over the place.
M: Well, I’m glad you came to that decision. Let’s have a look at that essay now.
W: What did you think? I’ve spent ages on it but I’m only about 80 percent happy with it.
M: Well, I wouldn’t be too down about it. I think most of it is pretty good. I liked the introduction which really set out your ideas clearly. The middle needs some attention but the end was really first rate.
