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...

答案
D
解析
①选项都是关于He的缺点或问题,听音时注意相关信息。②在对话的最后,男士还是不放弃、不断地求情,最后女士指出他的问题所在,认为他应该为自己的行为负责,而不是一味地逃避。因此,男士最大的问题为逃避承担责任,因此D项为正确答案。
