问题 What can we learn about the man at the beginning of the conversation?
W: Hey, Tom. How is your literature presentation going?
M: What literature presentation? I don’t have to give mine until the end of the next week.
W: You mean you haven’t even started working on it yet?
M: No.(1)I need the pressure of a deadline to get inspired.
W: Really?(2)I’m quite the opposite. I can’t concentrate unless I know I have plenty of time. Besides, I have a big math test next week. So I want to get my presentation out of the way.
M: What’s your presentation on?
W: T.S. Eliot.
M: Wasn’t he a poet?(3)I thought we were supposed to focus on a novel.
W: He wrote novels, don’t you know?
M: Oh. Really?(4 -1)I never knew that. I guess I’ll learn more on Tuesday. Is that when you are supposed to talk?
W: Uh-huh. But I was going to offer you a preview.(4 - 2)I’m looking for someone to tell me whether I’m talking too fast and whether you can follow what I’m saying.
M: I guess I could do that. When were you thinking of?
W: Will this afternoon be all right? I have a class to go to now, but I’ll be around before dinner.
M: That sounds good. I’ll stop by your room. It’s probably quieter there than in my hall.

选项 A、He is eager to work on the presentation.
B、He has plenty of time to prepare for the presentation.
C、He doesn’t know there is a literature presentation until the woman tells him.
D、He may not start to prepare for the presentation until next week.

答案D

解析 本题考查事实。由句(1)可知,男士说事到临头才会激发他的灵感,所以可能到下周才开始准备报告。所以答案为D。
