问题  
M: How’s your dissertation going? I’m proofreading my first draft, and will submit it to my professor tomorrow.
W: Oh, I haven’t even started writing mine yet, so I’m really worried about finishing by the end of next semester.
M: You mean you haven’t even begun yours yet? The final draft is due in five months.
W: Of course I’ve started it, but I can’t get to the writing yet, as I haven’t found enough resources to use. So I’m still researching the topic.
M: Maybe the problem is the way you’re doing your research. I started by talking to my professor about where to look for information, and based on that, I’ve found books in the library and a lot of reputable journal articles on the Internet.
W: I’ve tried all that, but don’t have enough to write the dissertation as my department’s minimum length is 70 pages. I think the problem is that my topic isn’t viable, and honestly, my professor did warn me at the beginning that I might not be able to find enough material, but I was so interested in the topic that I didn’t let his advice determine.
M: Well, I suggest you find a new topic. After all, our professors are here to guide us, so it’s best to listen to them.
W: In retrospect, I wish I had listened to him, but I didn’t, and now 1 don’t want to give up my topic, as I’ve already invested so much time and energy.
M: If you’re committed to your current topic, maybe you could make some adjustments rather than abandoning it completely. What is your topic?
W: It’s depictions of femininity in folklore from the south of the country.
M: That’s pretty narrow. You could find more material if you made the topic broader, maybe by including other kinds of depictions.
W: Broadening the topic is a great idea. I’ll start by including folklore from other regions of the country.

2.What does the man say about his professor?
3.What does the woman say about her professor?
4.What do we learn the woman will do to complete her dissertation?

选项 A、Follow the man’s advice.
B、Consult her professor more.
C、Change her research methodology.
D、Narrow down her dissertation topic.

答案A

解析 题目问女士将如何完成论文。男士建议女士扩大主题的范嗣. 女士认为这是个好主意 (Broadening the topic is a great idea),故选A项 “听从男士的建议”。B项“向她教授咨询更多信息”在录音中并未提及。录音中,男士问是不是她的研究方法有问题,女士说自己已经尝试过所有方法(I’ve tried all that),说明她不会再尝试其他方法,故排除C项“改变她的搜索方法”。D项“缩小论文主题的范围”与录音“扩大主题范围”(Broadening the topic)矛盾,故排除。
