M: Hello, Mary. Fancy meeting you here!
W: Hi, Peter. Yes, I’m here again, there always seems to be a queue. I’m writing a report for my economics class. How about you?
M: I’m still working on my essay on environmental science. I need to check out a reference.
W: You know, when I first started doing my report I was frightened to use these computer catalogues. I feared something would go wrong.
M: But they’re so useful. You can see at a glance what books you need and if they’re checked out or not.
W: I know that now, but at the beginning I really missed the card catalogues. But anyway I still have the same problem I used to have, knowing what to look up!
M: Yes, I agree, it’s the same for me. Last week I must have wasted two hours looking for information on a topic I was working on.
W: Really? What was the topic?
M: It was about the effect of smoking by parents on their children’s sleep. I looked up sleeping, child psychology, child development, problems in social work, children’s medical problems, and I can’t remember what else. In the end, I had to go back and ask my tutor for help.
W: You know, I took a study skills class because I thought it would help me locate information, and all I learned was how to read the cards, which wasn’t of much help! My real problem is knowing what card to look up.
M: Yes, and that takes thinking! Pity the computer can’t do that for us.
W: Maybe it will some day. Oh, look, there’s a free computer now.
M: Yes, thanks. See you!

选项中essay以及反复出现的Peter和computer表明,本题可能与Peter的电脑或论文有关。对话中男士提到,I’m still working on my essay on environmental science(他正在写环境科学方面的论文), 故答案为B)。B)中的writing an essay是对男士所说working onmy essay的同义转述。
