What is Dale Kohler?
W: These are lovely buildings. I’ve never been to this part of the university before.
M: It’s a bit out of the way. Where do you normally, uh, hang out?
W: Computer labs, sir; I’m a research assistant for a special project on a combined government and pri-vate-sector grant.
M: We haven’t introduced ourselves. I, of course, am Roger Lambert.
W: Dale Kohler, sir. I really appreciate your seeing me.
M: Let’s sit down. You said you know my sister’s daughter, Verna. I’m very curious to know how she’s doing. Very.
W: Now it’s not very so good, sir. Her little girl’s about one and a half, and I guess that’s a demanding age, at least Verna says the kid is driving her crazy, babbling and getting into things all the time. The project she’s living in is not a good place. She has no real friends.
M: Is there anything, you think, I could do for Verna?
W: Do what I do, sir. Remember her in your prayers.
M: That is certainly the least I can do. Do give her my love when you see her next time.
W: Also, if I may say, you could visit her yourself.
M: She has not once sought to reach me. Now, was there anything you wanted to talk to me about?
W: Yes. I was wondering, sir, about a grant: whether the university would like me to pursue what I’ve been doing. Are you giving me the green light on my project?
M: Not at all. It’s not for me to give you a light of any color. If you want to apply for a special research grant from the university, they have all the appropriate forms in the front offices downstairs. The head of the Grants Committee is a very nice man, I can tell you, called John Clark. Good luck.
W: We’ll be in touch.
选项
A、To ask him to help her to get a grant from the Grants Committee.
B、To offer him a chance to take part in a project.
C、To tell Prof Lambert about his niece and her daughter.
D、To get a recommendation from him to the Grants Committee.
答案
A
解析
在最后两轮对话中男士询问女士还有没有别的事,女士首先用I was wondering about a grant...表明自己的问题,然后询问男士能否帮忙:Are you giving me the green light on my project(您能给我的项目放行吗),被男士拒绝了,男士建议女士自己去the Grants Committee找负责人John Clark。由常识即可推知,这才是女士来找男士的真正目的:让男士帮她获得拨款。
