M: Hello, Michelle. Can I help you?
W: Hello, Professor. [6]I was wondering if you had a few minutes to, uh, talk to me about my essays.
M: Sure. Sit down.
W: Thanks. Professor, you, uh, you gave me a C plus on my last essay. That’s the third C you’ve given me now. I guess I just don’t understand what it is you’re looking for.
M: Well, you’re not alone, Michelle. I’m afraid most of the class is doing poorly this term. Now, I’ve tried to explain what I want you all to do several times now, but nobody seems to get it. I guess I’m a failure as a teacher.
W: I don’t think so. But, I’m sorry, would you mind trying one more time with me? I understand that you want to see a clear, efficient development of the thesis and all that, and I thought I’d done that this time, I really did.
M: Have you got your paper with you?
W: Yes, here it is, right here.
M: Let me have a look.
W: Sure! Here.
M: Mmm... yes... I remember now. Actually, Michelle, you have a very good thesis here. I like it. [7]I just wish you could’ve presented it more effectively.
W: In what, in what way?
M: Well, just look at your opening sentence. This is the first sentence that the reader meets. "Most authorities consider the zygote the initiation of a new existence." Now tell me, Michelle, if the average person picked this up and started reading it, would they understand that?
W: Well, um... I hope so. I mean, I presume so. That’s what I presumed when I wrote it, of course.
M: Of course. It seems short and direct. But you must remember that when you wrote this, you had been reading and researching your topic beforehand. [8]How many people know what a zygote is? How self-evident is the meaning of "a new existence"? That’s a very abstract phrase.
W: Yeah, I guess so.
M: Michelle, the writer’s first duty is to his readership and his second duty is to his thesis. Think of all the articles you’ve read that’ve been built on week arguments, misconceptions or untruths, [9]and yet have become widely popular, have enjoyed wide acceptance because of the writer’s talent at communicating.
W: Yeah, there’re a lot of those. You want us to write like that?
M: Well, I certainly don’t want you to be promulgating untruths—that’s what I hope I’m helping my students avoid—but it would be worthwhile to notice how some of those writers do it. [10]The key to effective writing is assessing your reader accurately.
W: I see, Professor. Thanks a lot!

选项
A、How can she improve her essays.
B、Why did she get a C on the test.
C、What is the professor looking for.
D、Why is she doing poorly this term.
答案
A
解析
①对话开始的时候,Michelle问老师能否抽几分钟和她谈谈她的文章,接着又提到,她的文章已经连续得到三次C,不明白教授要找什么样的文章。教授说他已经向学生们解释过了,Michelle请求教授再向她讲一次。由此可见Michelle是在向教授讨教提高作文的方法,答案选A。②录音中提到文章得到C,而不是B项的test。C“教授在寻找什么”利用录音原文做干扰,录音中女士的意思是“都不知道教授在寻找什么样的文章”,显然C项过于宽泛。D“她为什么这学期表现差”利用录音原文doing poorly this term做干扰。
