【答案解析】[解析] W: This weekend is going to be crazy! I have two midterm exams on Monday, and I should study all weekend, but my parents are coming to visit. They'll want to spend time with me and want me show them around town. I look forward to seeing them, but I don't know when I'll have the time to study for my exams! M: Why don't you join our biology group tonight? There are three of us so far. We're reviewing for the midterm, starting at six o'clock. W: Tonight? Uh ... I'd have to get the night off from work. M: Well, if you can make it, then please come. We meet at Mark's house at six o'clock. W: Uh ... Okay, but I'll have to talk to my boss. M: Another thing you could do is just explain to your parents that you have to study for examinations. I'm sure they'll understand. You don't have to spend the entire weekend with them. Just give them a list of places to go during the afternoon and then spend the evening with them. W: Hmm. I could at least try that. I've got to do something to get ready for exams. Briefly summarize the problem the students are discussing. Then state which solution you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation.
