M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Can I take the test now? I just...
W: Excuse me? What do you mean? The test ended 10 minutes ago, and you weren’t there to take it. Sorry.
M: Oh, Mrs. Jones. Come on. That’s not fair.
W: What do you mean by that? Everyone else was there, taking the test. So, why weren’t you in class?
M: Uh, my bus didn’t come this morning on time. You know it rained heavily this morning. That’s why.
W: Um. Are you sure? Your roommate, Sam, made it to class, and he said you were still in bed an hour ago.
M: Well... Sam might be right about that... Anyway, I really need to take the test, Mrs. Jones.
W: Wait. Don’t you realize that you just lied to me?
M: Well, listen. Mrs. Jones. Please listen to me. My alarm didn’t go off this morning, so it’s not my fault I came late.
W: So, you’re blaming your alarm clock again? It’s still your responsibility to be here, regardless of the alarm clock. By the way, wasn’t that your excuse the last two times you missed class?
M: But Mrs. Jones...
W: Listen. You know the policy of our program. If you miss a test for an unexcused reason... and a lie is definitely unexcused, then you get a zero on the test. There are no exceptions. Do I make myself understood?
M: Mrs. Jones. Why don’t you want to help me? You never help me. I mean I really need to pass this class and get the credits.
W: No, no. no. Listen to yourself. You’re playing what we call the victim. You made some bad choices, and now you have to accept the consequences. Remember: When you point your finger at someone else, like me in this case, three fingers are pointing back at you.
M: But Mrs. Jones. I will lose my scholarship if I do poorly in the class; my parents will be really disappointed in me. I don’t want to let them down.
W: I’m really sorry, but that’s not my problem.
M: Oh, Mrs. Jones!
W: I’m sorry I can’t help you with that. Don’t try to shift the blame here.
M: Mrs. Jones, please...
W: Gentleman, you painted yourself into a corner. You need to be accountable for your own actions instead of trying to weasel out of your responsibility. While you aren’t doing well in my class though, I must say I almost have to give you an A grade for trying to dodge the outcome of your bad choices.
M: Mrs. Jones, please... Mrs. Jones...
W: Listen. You are now learning one thing.
M: What?
W: My name.
M: Ah...

选项

B、An unexcused reason can exempt you from getting a zero.
C、There no exceptions unless you give an acceptable reason.
D、No excuses will be accepted as reasons for missing the test.
答案
C
解析
①当男士向女士求情,希望女士能让他补考的时候,女士再次重申课堂的规则:如果因为一个理由而错过考试的话——而且谎言是显然不可原谅的——那么考试就得零分。由此可见,除非学生能够给出一个合理的理由,否则考试成绩只能为零分,没有任何例外。因此,C项为正确答案。②错过考试没有正当理由得零分,而不是说not get a decent grade“不会得到好的成绩”,A项错误。B“不可原谅的理由可以让你免除得零分”刚好与文中意思相反。D项的No excuses有点全盘否定的意思,而录音中只是说unexcused reason的情况下。
