What problem do Bonnie and Antonio both have when using the library?
(Borvnie=B   Antonio=A)
B: Hi, Antonio.
A: Hi, Bonnie. How are you?
B: Fine. I’m relieved to have done my presentation!
A: I’m sure! How did it go?
B: Oh, OK in the end, but I was ever so nervous beforehand. It’s silly because I do know my stuff quite well. I must know those statistics inside out, but when you have to get each table of results to come up in the right order, it can make you nervous. It was my first time using the computerised projector, and I was sure I was going to get the controls wrong, or something.  And of course, that’s not a good situation, if you know you’ve got to listen to questions carefully and be ready to answer quickly.
A: But it was fine once you got going?
B: Yes.
A: I do feel that the standard of presentations could be improved in general. I think a lot of the lecturers agree with me, although I don’t honestly know what they can be expected to do about it. Students need to appreciate the difference between style and content. Too many presentations are just a mass of detailed content — all very worthy — without any attempt to engage people’s interest. Basic things, like looking at your audience’s faces, seem to get forgotten. And that makes it harder to concentrate on the points made about the research itself.
B: Yes, there are quite a few improvements I’d like to see. Take tutorials, for example. I feel they’re often a missed opportunity. I come out not feeling sure about what I’ve learnt. Week in week out, I faithfully plough through the reading list, which is fair enough, but then the discussion doesn’t seem to extract the main issues. It’s frustrating.
A: Hmm, I know what you mean. Mind you, we have to take some responsibility ourselves. I actually got quite a lot from that skills workshop I went to on taking notes, and I’d like to make similar improvements in the next semester. The reading list we get has several websites each time, and I want to learn to navigate my way round them more effectively.
B: That sounds a good idea. Mind you, it means spending more time in the library...
A: If you can get in...
B: You mean because it’s too crowded? It isn’t big enough, is it?
A: Well, I don’t know. I mean,I like to work late in the evening, and it shuts before I want to finish. But I know you can access the catalogue from a laptop.
B: Which personally I haven’t got. Actually, the problem for me is thatI like to get up early and start work straight away, and they don’t start until 9, I wish they’d change that.

选项 A、The opening hours are too short.
B、There are too few desks to work at.
C、The catalogue is difficult to use.

答案A

解析 本题询问Bennie和Antonio使用图书馆时遇到的共同问题。录音原文中Antonio提到他喜欢晚上学习到很晚,但图书馆关门较早(it shuts before I’ want to finish)。而Bonnie起床较早,想在早起之后立刻开始学习,但图书馆直到9点才开门(they don’t start until 9)。因此两人的共同问题是图书馆开门时间较短,故选A项。虽然原文中Bonnie提到了图书馆过于拥挤(it’s too crowded),但Antonio并未做出肯定的答复(Well,I don’t know),故排除B项。Antonio虽然提到了目录(catalogue),但并未说明它是否很难使用,故排除C项。
