Why does the student speak to the professor?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Professor Carter, I need to talk to you.
M: Hello, Katie. I haven"t seen you in class lately. How are you?
W: Fine. I mean, I"m better now. I had a bad case of the flu that turned into pneumonia. I was sick in bed for eight days.
M: Oh, really? I"m sorry to hear that. I hope you"re feeling better now. Are you completely recovered?
W: Yes, I am. I mean, I think I am. I"m sorry that I missed so many lectures. I need to, um, I need to find out what I can do to save my grade.
M: All right. Let"s see. How many lectures did you miss?
W: I was out two weeks altogether.
M: Oh.
W: I tried to come back earlier, but I just felt too tired.
M: I see. Well, two weeks is a lot to miss. In most cases when students miss so much information, it"s impossible for them to catch up. I usually recommend dropping the course.
W: Could I...I need to give it my best shot. I"ll work really hard, I promise. Just tell me what I need to do.
M: Well, I"m afraid it won"t be easy. The first thing you"ll need is all the handouts you missed. You"ll have to talk to the department secretary. She can help you there.
W: Okay.
M: Those handouts contain a lot of important material, so you have a lot of reading to make up. And, of course, you"ll have to read all of the chapters in your text that are listed in the syllabus.
W: Okay. I did manage to do some reading when I was sick, so I"m not too far behind there.
M: Good, that"s good. All right, the next thing, even more important is, you missed the midterm exam, which counts for 20 percent of your grade.
W: Yes, I know. How do I go about making that up?
M: You"ll have to arrange that with Clifford, my instructional aide. Talk to Clifford—that is, when you"ve finished all the reading—and set up a time to come in and take the exam. I would try to do that as soon as possible.
W: Okay. I will.
M: And, of course, the most pressing thing you need to do right now is give me an outline of your term paper. The outline was due last week, but I"ll have to make an exception in your case. Turn it in as soon as you can—by the end of this week. Remember, this is extremely important because the term paper is 30 percent of your final grade.
W: Yes, I know.
M: So, you have quite a bit of work to make up. Do you think you can do all of that?
W: I don"t know. It"s really a lot to do. But I have no choice. I just hope I don"t end up in bed again.
M: Why don"t you come see me at the end of the week? Bring your outline, and we"ll see how you"re doing.
W: Okay. I will. Thanks, Professor Carter. I"ll see you on Friday.
