Narrator
Listen to a conversation between Ana and her tutor about her courses settlement.
Tutor Have you settled in?
Ana Yes, I feel quite at home now. I haven’t gotten used to the food yet, but I’m enjoying life on campus.
Tutor Good. Now we’d better make sure you enjoy your studies. We offer a very wide range of options on foundation courses, as you know; but you can only take six modules. Do you know what you want to do yet?
Ana Yes, more or less, but I’m not sure whether to do biological sciences or German.
Tutor Well, that’s quite a difference. You want to do computer studies, don’t you?
Ana Mmmm, yeah.
Tutor Well, let’s see you’ve selected to do physical sciences, basic electronics, art and design CAD—that’s computer design-.....isn’t it?
Ana Computer-aided design actually, "CAD", but...
Tutor Oh, right, anyway, CAD and...and English. That’s quite a range. Don’t you want to do maths or computer programming, for example? Why do you choose to do art and design?
Ana Well, I’m interested in electronics in computers - especially in writing computer games. I’d like to produce educational software, educational games, eventually, I’ve taught myself a lot of programming. I don’t think I’d benefit much from a foundation-level course.
Tutor Oh. No...no, I see that, goon.
Ana So, er, I want the basics—physical science and electronics—I was hopeless at physics at school, and we didn’t have electronics but I was good at maths—I don’t think I need that.
Tutor ...and the art and design?
Ana That will be good for graphics I need that to produce games CAD too I’ve never done CAD before.
Tutor No, right, they’ve got some powerful packages in the computer graphics and CAD Offices you’ll enjoy that. So...that leaves English. It’s mostly English lit. I know your English is very good, but do you know you can take English as a foreign language? That is one of the modules in the foundation year.
Ana No, no, I didn’t. That’s great if they’ve got classes at my level. I don’t have any problem speaking, but my writing is terrible.
Tutor Oh, I’m sure they have. Go and talk to them in the EFL Department. Oh, and I suggest you join the study skills classes too. They’ll have sessions on report writing and so on.
Ana Great, I really need some help with my writing, especially spelling.
Tutor Well, that would be in the EFL classes study skills would help more with how to structure your essays and so on ...Now, your last module...
Ana Yeah...well...I gave up biology at school to do physics—but I much prefer biology I’d like to do some more while I can but German is very important in technical subjects, so I want to do that too.
Tutor Well, you could do it as an option next year—you do know that?
Ana No, I didn’t. I mean, I didn’t check.
Tutor Yes. Yes, I think that’s the thing to do concentrate on your English this year you could take a Cambridge proficiency you’ll need IELTS for the first year of the degree—then, start German next year.
Ana Right, that sounds good.
Tutor Good, well, if you have any problems, academic or otherwise, just come and see me.
Ana Ok, thanks. Tutor I’m on extension 7459. Ana 7459.
Tutor That’s it, just leave a message if I’m not in the office. OK, if there’s nothing else...
Ana No...no, that’s fine, thanks.
Tutor Good-bye.
Ana Bye.
Now get ready to answer the questions. You may use your notes to help you answer.
24. What is the dialogue mainly about?
25. Why does Ana choose to do computer design?
26. What are the suggestions that the tutor gave to Ana on her course settlement in the foundation year?
27. According to the dialogue, which of the following statements are true of the discussion between Ana and her tutor?
Listen again to part of the conversation. Then answer the question.
Tutor
Well, let’s see--you’ve selected to do physical sciences, basic electronics, art and design CAD that’s computer design—isn’t it?
Ana
Computer-aided design actually, "CAD", but...
Tutor
Oh, right, anyway, CAD and ...And English. That’s quite a range. Don’t you want to do maths or computer programming, for example? Why do you choose to do art and design?
28. What can be inferred from the tutor’s questions to Ana?
Listen again to part of the dialogue. Then answer the question.
Tutor
That’s it, just leave a message if I’m not in the office. Ok, if there’s nothing else...
29. What does the tutor mean when he says this?
Tutor
OK, if there’s nothing else...

选项 A、He thinks Ana has nothing else to ask him.
B、He thinks he has something else to ask her.
C、He thinks Ana should leave if there is nothing else.
D、He thinks he should leave if there is nothing else.

答案C

解析 本题仍为推论题。题目问:教授说下面这段话是什么意思?教授在和Ana交流结束后确认了再次联络的方式,最后说到“If there is nothing else...”这是委婉地向对方表示要结束谈话。选项A、B和D都是没有正确把握此类句型的含义,只是片面地从字面上去理解。选项C(如果Ana没有其他事情就可以走了)才是导师真正的意思所在,所以为正确答案。
