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...

选项
A、The bus doesn’t come on time.
B、He forgets to set the alarm clock.
C、The alarm clock goes wrong.
D、It rained heavily this morning.
答案
C
解析
①对话中,女士拆穿男士说谎之后,男士继续找借口,他说其实是因为今天早上闹钟没响,所以迟到了。但是女士不接受这个理由。她还补充说,他之前两次缺课也是以闹钟没响来当借口的。因此,C项“闹钟出故障了”与“闹钟不响”意思相同,为正确答案。②A和D项是男士这次迟到编的第一个理由:今早下大雨,公交车不能按时到站。B“他忘记设闹钟”没有在原文中提到。
