Conversation 3
M: You mentioned that you are a fan of live music. I guess I don't have to tell you about the concert at the campus pub on Saturday. It's supposed to be the best show of the year.
W: I know. I wish I could be there but I already promised Professor Henry that I'd have all of the quizzes graded by Monday. I'm afraid I'm going to be stuck in my dorm all weekend.(女士整個周末都要待在宿舍不能出門。)
M: Why did you offer to do that? Did you forget about the concert, or do you really need the money?
W: Actually, I really need to concentrate on academics this year. If I want to get into the education program here, I have to prove that I am serious about being a tutorial leader. It's not about the money.
M: Have you applied at other schools besides this one? (9)I've heard it's really hard to get into the education program here, but my cousin got accepted at one in a different state, and her grades aren't that good.(男士的表妹在另一個州的學校申請成功了。)
W:(10)That was my original plan, but Professor Henry asked me to help her out this year and she also promised to write me a reference letter.(教授請女士幫忙,并答應為她寫推薦信。)I didn't think I could get into the program here, but now I do. My marks are higher than they have ever been and once I'm done my Master's I hope to do my PhD.
M: Well, I can see that you are really dedicated. Well, I'm sorry you're going to miss the band.
W: Me too. I can't help feeling a bit jealous.
M: Well, I'll tell you all about it on Monday.
