W: What do you think of my paper?
M: The ideas are good. If I were you, though, I'd rewrite the last two paragraphs to make it even better.

[解析] 男士说论文的思想很好,但是后两段应当重写。If I were you, I'd rewrite the last two paragraphs to make it even better,是虚拟语气,表示委婉的建议,“如果我是你,我就重写后两段”。因此选B,即有些部分写得不好。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: I wish my hair were longer.
M: Yes, what a pity you had it cut. If only you'd listened to me.

[解析] 女士感叹说: “要是头发长一些就好了”,男士说what a pity you had it cut.If only you'd listened to me.“可惜的是你把头发剪短了,要是当初听我的就好了”。其中If only you'd listened to me.是对过去发生的事情的一个虚拟,表示“要是……该多好啊”。由此我们判断当初男士肯定建议女士不要把头发剪短。虚拟语气中是听力中经常考查的内容之一。
