STUDENT: Hi, Professor Timmons? Do you have a few minutes? I was hoping to talk about what I missed on Thursday.
PROFESSOR: Hello, come in. Sure, sit down. Could you tell me your name please?
STUDENT: Margaret, sir. Margaret Parkinson. I apologise for missing your class but I had to go to the hospital.
PROFESSOR: I’m sorry to hear that! Everything is OK now though, I hope?
STUDENT: Yes, thanks.
PROFESSOR: Glad to hear it. So on Thursday I outlined the research project that will account for 30% of your grade. All students will be divided into groups and will give a well-researched presentation to the class covering a specific topic relevant to student life.
STUDENT: Oh, that sounds interesting - can we choose just any topic that pertains to life as a student, like how to start your own student organisation?
PROFESSOR: Well, though I’m sure that would be an informative presentation, I have already chosen a list of topics which I will assign. As an example, I assigned one group the topic of [21]student loans. They are to research not just the prevalence of students who have loans to pay for their tuition, but information as to how best to manage these loans and possible scholarships that could alleviate some of the financial burden.
STUDENT: That one sounds particularly interesting to me - could I request that topic? I could easily find out a lot about it by stopping by the [22]Finance Office on my way to class.
PROFESSOR: Unfortunately, that one is already taken by another group. I have, however assigned you to a group and given you all one of two choices.
STUDENT: Oh, I see. What are the choices?
PROFESSOR: [23]The first is discussing smoking. Trends in the number of student smokers compared with the general population, popular reasons students take up smoking, and more healthy alternatives to smoking.
STUDENT: Hm, that one could be interesting. I’m not a smoker myself, but will see what my group thinks. If we did choose this topic, we would rather not put our fellow students on the spot to interview them - where else could we gather information?
PROFESSOR: How about where the cigarettes are sold?
STUDENT: Oh, that’s a great idea. [24]I could interview the manager of a supermarket and find out the average age of people buying cigarettes, or how much they buy, that sort of thing?
PROFESSOR: Precisely.
STUDENT: Okay, I’ll keep that in mind. And what was the other topic?
PROFESSOR: [25]The other topic is the practice of natural medicine. It sounds far more specific than the others, but it is more an exercise of outlining a career path. If your group chooses this, you would cover the specifics of becoming a Doctor of Natural Medicine, how to become licensed to practice natural medicine, what the career outlook is, etc. [26]you could find much of the information you need on this in the Careers Office.
STUDENT: Wow, that would be really helpful not just in learning about natural medicine, but in how to approach researching any career path.
PROFESSOR: That’s the idea. I want groups to really think outside the box to find information on their topics. They should interview multiple sources.
STUDENT: Okay, now I think I have the general idea.
STUDENT: When is the presentation due?
PROFESSOR: I expect each group to send me an [27]email attachment of the plan ahead of time - by October 10th - so that I can ensure that you are on the right track.
STUDENT: Oh, that’s actually really reassuring. I would hate to spend so much time on a presentation only to find we had taken it in the wrong direction! So when is the presentation? PROFESSOR: I let groups choose from [28]the list of time slots I have between November 1st and November 5th.
STUDENT: Okay, how about the 3rd? I’ll have to check with my group, of course, but maybe we could write a tentative time?
PROFESSOR: Sure, let me take a look. I’m actually booked completely through the 3rd and 4th now. [28]How about sometime in the afternoon of the 5th? STUDENT: Great! How about 2 o’clock?
PROFESSOR: No problem. I’ll pencil your group in.
STUDENT: Okay, thanks. And to clarify, what exactly is due in the first phase?
PROFESSOR: Before the October deadline, I want your group to have compiled resources and then to provide some initial [29]data analysis to support your claims.
STUDENT: Okay, so data analysis is due the 10th of October, and then the um, the -
PROFESSOR: - [30]Presentation? Yes. The final phase is simply giving the presentation on the 5th of November.
STUDENT: Alright, I think I have all the information I need. Thanks!
PROFESSOR: You’re welcome. See you in class tomorrow.

答案Natural Medicine

解析 本题考查第三个topic,即教授推荐的其他两个topic中的第二个。学生问:And what was the other topic?显然答案会出现在教授的回答里,比较直观简单。
