Task 5-1
对话,女生对文学课不满,虽然她很喜欢教授。但是这门课的 TA 很聒噪,罗嗦。不停 说。学生都没机会表达自己的看法策略:女生告诉教授这个情况,然后教授可以告诉 TA。但是这样可能导致 TA 丢工作女生 可以 drop 这门课,下学期再选,避开这个 TA。
Woman: you know what? I’ve got a bigproblem in my literature class.
Wan: really? Tell me about it.
Woman: I don’t really like the class, eventhough I like the professor pretty much, the Teaching
assistant is…you know, when she gives thelecture, she talked excessively with out necessary, we
don’t even have a chance to express ouropinion or ask question.
Man: well, you can just tell the professorhow you feel, then he can then tell his teaching
assistance about your opinion.
Woman: that sounds reasonable, but you knowthat would make the poor girl loose her job, I don’t want to be a bad guy.
Man: ok, or maybe you can drop this classand sign in next semester, then you can avoid this
teaching assistant.
The woman’s problem is that she does notlike the teaching assistant in the literature class.
Because the TA never gives them anyopportunity to ask questions or express their opinions.
The man proposes two possible solutions tosettle her problem. One is that she can go to talk about this trouble with theliterature professor. The other suggestion is of dropping the course andregistering next semester.
Well, from my point of view, I would takethe first solution, because, for me, I hope to harvest a
large number of knowledge withoutsacrificing my own time and energy. If I have dropped the
course, then I have had dedicated moreenergy to selecting other courses to instead of this.

男生要写一篇关于一首诗的 paper。有那首诗的书在图书馆里,已经关门了。方法一, 明天早早起来写。方法二宿舍有其他诗的书,可以写别的诗,但他觉得不如之前选的那首有意思。
Man: I’ve got a big problem in my poemassignment.
Woman: really? Tell me about it.
Man: I need to write a paper referringpoem, and I’ve found an ideal book in the library for
reference. But I hang out with my friendsfor a whole day and forget to borrow the book, when a
back to school, the library had alreadyclosed because today is Sunday. The problem is, I had to
submit the paper by next day.
Woman: well, maybe you can find anotherpoem book instead of this one.
Man: I don’t thinks I can make it. The bookis the only one worth reading as a poem criticism.
Woman: well then, maybe you can go to thelibrary earlier next morning and read quickly, because not too much timeleft.
The man in the conversation met a problemthat she forgot to borrow an ideal book for her paper
in poem class from the library, and whenshe went back, the library was closed. However she has
to submit her paper by next day.
The woman gives him two suggestions. First,he can find another poem book instead of that one,
and the second suggestion is that he can goto the library earlier next morning and read quickly.
I prefer the second suggestion because, ifthe man goes to the library earlier, he can finish his
paper in time. However, if he adopts thefirst suggestion, the alternative book might not be
suitable.

In the listening materials, the speaker hasbeen facing a problem. The reason is that the place
where he lives is quite close to thestairs. He cannot fall asleep because of the noise. Also, it is
hard to focus in the class. There are twosolutions, first, he can move to other dorms, and he can
move out immediately. However, the problemis that he loves to live in the place, because he has
lots of intimate friends here, and it’squite close to the library. The second solution is to move to
other rooms, and still in this dorm. Inthis case, he has to wait until the end of this semester. I
personally believe the first one is better;the reason is because he can ASAP get rid of his
embarrassment situation.

Task 5-14
男孩本来在 school book store 兼职,可是 back 伤了。两个选择:1,还在 book store,但是做 cashier 收钱。2,去干别的,比如去学校 cafeteria 刷碗。在 book store 吧,时间冲突,早上他要去物理学习小组,因 为这个学习小组让他的物理进步很大,他不能不去。在餐厅刷碗吧,时间很自由,但是不在 book store 他买 text book 就木有折扣了。
A: What’s wrong with your back? It lookslike you are hurt.
B: I hurt it yesterday. I was trying tomove a large pile of books from the storage to the book
shelves. I didn’t expect the books to be that heavy and when I moved it I hurt myback. I really
want to change a job, but I have a bigproblem.
A: What’s wrong?
B: Well, I really want to change a job, butthere aren’t that many choices to choose from. I could stay at the bookstore and be a cashier, but the time would be alittle different, but it would be the same time as my study meeting and I don’twant to miss any of them, I am already having a tough time in class.
A: Well, if that’s the case, I heard thereis a dishwasher job available in the cafeteria.
B: I know about that job, but the biggestproblem with that job is the wage is too low. I don’t
have that much money, if the pay is too lowI won’t be able to pay for my living expenses.
In the conversation, the man has a problem.His back got hurt while moving books and he's
considering to change a job. But hischoices are limited. He has only two alternatives.
The first one is that he can stay at thebookstore and be a cashier. The second one is that he can
take the position of a dishwasher in thecafeteria.
Personally speaking, I would rather adoptthe second solution if I were the man for the following
two reasons. First, if the man takes thejob vacancy as a dishwasher in the cafe, he will not have to face the timeconflict between working and studying. He won't miss any class which also costhim much money. Although the wage for the dishwasher is relatively lower, hecan also take some measure to solve the problem, such as moving to a cheaperapartment.
