问题
W: Hey, Charlie! Want to join me for lunch...my treat! I really want to pick your brain about something I’ve been thinking a lot about.
M: Wow! Sure! Thank you, Lisa.
W: Well, as you know, I have a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature and that’s served me well so far, but I’ve always wanted to do some post-graduate work...maybe even get a Doctorate!
M: Wow! Just the idea of going back to school fills my head with pain.
W: But you have a Master’s degree...hasn’t that helped your career?
M: Yeah, I’d have to say it has. But I’m still paying for it, you know.
W: I know education is expensive, but it’s been my lifelong dream. Call me crazy, but I’ve always wanted to have that PhD at the end of my name.
M: Well, getting a Doctorate degree would mean close to a decade of school. Can you afford that? Can you survive that?
W: I certainly can’t afford it, but I’m sure I could find some good student loans.
M: I think you need to separate the dream of having a PhD from the reality of years of more schooling. It’s not as romantic as you might think.
W: Yeah...I keep thinking about what I’ll do with a Master’s or Doctorate. I love language, but I don’t think there are a lot of well-paying jobs out there for experts on Shakespeare.
M: Uh huh, that’s for sure. You might find that your only career choice is teaching other graduate students.
M: I got my Master’s in Business Management. It’s helped my career, but it took several years of hard studying. If I didn’t have a supportive family and a wife with a good job, I don’t think I could have done it.
W: So you’re counseling me against this idea?
M: Not necessarily, but I do recommend taking a slow approach. Can you take some night classes or find some way to keep working while you go back to school?
W: Might be difficult.
M: Maybe you could get an MBA or something more marketable.
W: That’s worth considering.
M: I got my BA from Brown University. My major was Environmental Studies, but that hasn’t been as useful as the business courses I took.
W: Or maybe I should just take some courses that I’m interested in, but skip the Master’s.
M: That’s another idea, but if you really have a dream, don’t let anything stop you from going for it! Going back to school is hard, but it’s not impossible.
W: You’re right! I need to decide if this is truly what I want.
M: And take your time. You’re still young. Maybe there’s even a correspondence course you can take during your free time.
W: Yeah! Then I could slowly build up credits and maybe later transfer into a university program.
M: There you go! That’s some clear thinking.
W: I guess I just love learning! I remember the day my SAT test scores came back...I was so excited!
M: (chuckle) I don’t remember loving school quite so much...most of the time I was either bored or totally stressed out. But like I said earlier, if you have a dream, don’t let anything hold you back!

B、It’s expensive.
C、It’s hard to get graduated.
D、It will be easy to find a job in the future.
答案
D
解析
归纳题。关于博士学位, “Can you afford that?Can you survive that?”Shirley连续提了两个问题,可见读博士费用比较高而且课程很难,比较难毕业。后来又提到“I think you need to separate the dream of having a PhD from the reality of years of more schooling.It’s not as romantic as you might think.”可见读博士并不是那么美好的。D并没有提及,而且从前文可以听出,即使读厂研究生也还是比较难找工作。
