【正确答案】problem There is a problem in front of the man. his audition for the stage play Hamlet which would be in next week has been rearranged to tomorrow. But he has promised to help tutor his roommate for a physics test this evening, thus he will not have time to do practice for the audition. solutions The woman suggests two solutions for him. one is that he could find another man to tutor his roommate, the other is that he could began his preparation for the audition as soon as he finishes tutoring his roommate. best solution I think the man ought to accept the first option. reasons Because it will take him too much time to tutor his roommate to have enough time to prepare for his audition tomorrow. Although he can choose the second advice, helping his roommate for the physics test first and then practising for the audition, he couldn't have enough time to rest. It will make him too tired to have a good performance in the audition. So, I think the first advice is the best way to deal with his problem.

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Hey, Mark. You look worried, I can tell by the look on your face. What's wrong? M: Well, this is tough. I've just been informed that my audition time for the play Hamlet has been changed from next week to tomorrow. The worst thing is that I've promised my roommate I would help tutor him for his physics test tonight, leaving me no time to prepare for the audition. W: Ouch! Sounds like you have almost no time. What's your plan? M: I don't know. I really need to prepare for my audition tonight. W: Hmm...maybe you could ask someone else to help your roommate out. I am sure your roommate will understand. M: No, I can't just renege on my promise by not showing up. I have promised him to help him prepare for his test. I worry he won't be happy. W: Ah, I see. Well, then I guess you could just help him first, and then prepare your audition. How's that? M: Right, but then I might not have enough time to do all the preparation for the audition next day. W: Hmmm...well, my friend, I don't know what to tell you.
