What does Jerome say about the experience of writing his dissertation?
(Daisy=D Jerome=J)
D: Hi Jerome... I haven’t seen you for a while.
J: Hi Daisy. Yeah, they’re keeping us really busy on the postgraduate programme. But how are you? You’ll be starting your dissertation soon, won’t you?
D: Yeah... tutorials start next week... I’ve got Dr Peterson. You’ll remember it all from last year, of course!
J: It’s not something you forget easily. But seriously, although I didn’t expect to enjoy writing my dissertation... and in fact I didn’t really find it much fun, I wouldn’t have missed the experience...
I found it really improved my understanding of the whole degree programme
, you know, from the first year on...
D: Right.
J: So what are you doing yours on?
D: Glaciated landscapes... although I haven’t decided exactly what aspect yet.
J: I did mine on climate systems, so I can’t help you much I’m afraid. But you’ll be fine once you start your tutorials... Dr Peterson’ll help you focus.
D: I know, and he’ll set me deadlines for the different stages... which is what I need.
My concern is that I’ve got tons of material on the topic, and I won’t be able to stick to the word limit, you know
.
J: Hmm. I remember I had different concerns when I was doing my dissertation.
D: Last year?
J: Yeah... before my first tutorial I did a lot of fairly general reading ’cause I hadn’t fixed on my topic at that stage. I actually enjoyed that quite a lot and really improved my reading speed, you know, so I was getting through a lot of material.
I was frightened I wouldn’t remember it
all though so I got into the habit of making very detailed notes.
D: So did you find your tutor helpful in getting you started?
J: Yeah we certainly had some interesting discussions but it’s funny...
I saw a brilliant programme about climate change and it was that that really fired me up
. It was talking about some recent research which seemed to contradict some of the articles I’d been reading.
D: So you say your tutorials start next week?
J: Yeah.
选项
A、Talking to his tutor about his problems.
B、Seeing an inspirational TV show.
C、Reading a controversial journal article.
答案
B
解析
本题询问激励Jerome写这篇论文的动机是什么。录音原文中Jerome指出,他看了一档很精彩的关于气候变化的节目(programme),该节目激起了他的热情(fired me up)。录音中的fire…up与选项中的inspirational为同义替换,故选B项。
