M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Can I take the test now? I just...
W: Excuse me? What do you mean? The test ended 10 minutes ago, and you weren’t there to take it. Sorry.
M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Come on. That’s not fair.
W: What do you mean by that? Everyone else was there, taking the test. So, why weren’t you in class?
M: Uh, my bus didn’t come this morning on time. You know it rained heavily this morning. That’s why.
W: Um. Are you sure? [6]Your roommate, Sam, made it to class, and he said you were still in bed an hour ago.
M: Well... Sam might be right about that... Anyway, I really need to take the test, Mrs. Jones.
W: Wait. Don’t you realize that you just lied to me?
M: Well, listen. Mrs. Jones. Please listen to me. [7]My alarm didn’t go off this morning, so it’s not my fault I came late.
W: So, you’re blaming your alarm clock again? It’s still your responsibility to be here, regardless of the alarm clock. [7]By the way, wasn’t that your excuse the last two times you missed class?
M: But Mrs. Jones...
W: Listen. [8] You know the policy of our program. If you miss a test for an unexcused reason... and a lie is definitely unexcused, then you get a zero on the test. There are no exceptions. Do I make myself understood?
M: Mrs. Jones. Why don’t you want to help me? You never help me. I mean I really need to pass this class and get the credits.
W: No, no. no. Listen to yourself. You’re playing what we call the victim. You made some bad choices, and now you have to accept the consequences. Remember: When you point your finger at someone else, like me in this case, three fingers are pointing back at you.
M: But Mrs. Jones. [9]I will lose my scholarship if I do poorly in the class; my parents will be really disappointed in me. I don’t want to let them down.
W: I’m really sorry, but that’s not my problem.
M: Oh, Mrs. Jones!
W: I’m sorry I can’t help you with that. Don’t try to shift the blame here.
M: Mrs. Jones, please...
W: Gentleman, you painted yourself into a corner. [10]You need to be accountable for your own actions instead of trying to weasel out of your responsibility. While you aren’t doing well in my class though, I must say I almost have to give you an A grade for trying to dodge the outcome of your bad choices.
M: Mrs. Jones, please... Mrs. Jones...
W: Listen. You are now learning one thing.
M: What?
W: My name.
M: Ah...
6. Why does the woman mention the man’s roommate?
7. What is the excuse the man often uses for missing class?
8. What is the policy in class according to the woman?
9. What will probably happen if the man fails the test?
10. What is the man’s major problem according to the woman?
选项
A、To emphasize that his roommate performs better.
B、To prove that the man actually lied about being late.
C、To make his roommate call him to come to the class.
D、To show him consequences of his roommate’s lying.
答案
B
解析
①选项都是动词的不定式,可推测本题问某事的原因或目的。②对话中男士找借口说因为今天早上下大雨,公共汽车没有按时到达,所以他迟到了。女士听到后反驳说“你的室友山姆按时来学校了,而且他说你一个小时之前还在床上睡觉”。女士说这话的目的是要告诉男士她知道他在说谎。因此B项“为证明他其实为迟到撒谎”为正确答案。
