【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Hello, Professor Miller. You wanted to see me?
W: Oh, yes, Tom. Thanks for coming. It's about your work as a teaching assistant. I've just read your evaluations, the ones the students filled out toward the end of the semester.
M: Yes? Well, how were they?
W: Would you like to take a look? Out of a possible score of five, you got a four-point-eight That's very high, Tom.
M: Well, what a pleasant surprise.
W: When we see such a high score, we generally try to keep the teaching assistant on a little longer and perhaps even ask them to cover more classes. What do you say, Tom? Would you like to handle a double load in the fall?
M: I sure would, but I don't know if I can. Next fall will be my last semester of course-work for my master's and I'll be very busy doing research on my thesis. Could I have a few days to think about it?
W: Certainly. I wouldn't want you to fall behind in your course-work, but I do think you should consider getting more experience in the classroom. You seem to have a real gift.
M: Thanks for the compliment, Professor.
W: Let me know by the beginning of next week, will you?
M: Sure. I'll drop by again on Monday or Tuesday.
What does Professor Miller offer Tom?

对话开始女士说男士在助教评估中获得了4.8分(满分5分),是一个相当高的分数。接着说当他们看见这么高的分数时,一般会让助教待久一点,甚至可能要求他们上更多的课。然后女士问男士在秋季时愿不愿意上双倍的课,因此女士提供给男士的是教师职位的更多工作,故选A。
