早An英语|托福听力训练策略之conversation篇


答案:1D 2B 3D 4B 5C


Listen to a conversation between a student and a registrar.


MALE STUDENT


Hi, I’d like to drop off my graduation form. I understand you need this in order to process my diploma.(第一题D选项答案出处,D. To submit(drop off) a document required for graduation(graduation form))


FEMALE REGISTRAR


OK, I’ll take that. Uh, before you leave, lemme check our computer… Uh, looks like you’re OK for graduation and…hmmmm. Actually, I’m getting a warning flag on your academic record here.


MALE STUDENT


Really?


FEMALE REGISTRAR


Yeah, let’s see what’s what. Uh, OK, are you familiar with our graduation requirements?


MALE STUDENT


Um, I think so.


FEMALE REGISTRAR


Then you know you need forty-eight credits in your major field to graduate, and at least twenty-four credits at the intermediate level or higher. Also, after your second year, you have to meet with your department chair to outline a plan for the rest of your time here. In the past, we also issued letters before a student’s final year began to let them know what they needed to take in their final year to be OK. (第二题B选项答案出处,B. Students meet with a department chairperson to plan their course work.),注意排除D. Warning letters are sent to students who have fallen behind in their course work.这类题目如果没有弄清前后逻辑关系,B是now D是past很容易做错,注意这类今夕对比的内容是考察的重点)But we don’t do that anymore…


MALE STUDENT


I-I definitely met with my chairperson two years ago. Uh, he told me that I needed eight more courses at the intermediate level or higher in the last two years to be OK…so I’m not sure what the problem is. I made sure I got those credits.


FEMALE REGISTRAR


Unfortunately, the computer’s usually pretty reliable… so I’m not sure what’s going on here.


MALE STUDENT


It could be that I’ve taken two basic courses but coupled both of them with field experiences.


FEMALE REGISTRAR


What do you mean?


MALE STUDENT


Well, I could only take intro courses because there were no intermediate-level courses available for those particular topics. My chairperson told me that if I did independent field research in addition to the assigned work in each course, they would count as intermediate-level courses. My classmates, um, well, some of my classmates did this for an easy way to meet the intermediate course requirement. But I did it to get the kind of depth in those topics I was going for. As it turned out, I really enjoyed the fieldwork. It was a nice supplement to just sitting and listening to lectures.(第三题选项D答案出处,D. To emphasize his motivation to do field research in two of his courses,此为例子作用题)


FEMALE REGISTRAR


I’m sure that’s true, but the computer’s still showing them as basic-level courses, despite the fieldwork.


MALE STUDENT


I’m not sure what to do, then. I mean, should I cancel my graduation party?


FEMALE REGISTRAR


No! No reason to get worried like that. Just contact your chairperson immediately, OK? Uh, tell him to call me as soon as possible so that we can verify your fieldwork arrangement and certify those credits right away. It’s not like there’s an actual deadline today or anything, but if more than a few weeks go by, we might have a real problem that would be very difficult to fix in time for you to graduate. In fact, there probably would be nothing we could do.(第四题选项B答案出处,B. The man has a limited time to resolve his problem.)


MALE STUDENT


I’ll get on that.
