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, Frank? Would you like this?
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 your praise, Professor.
W: Let me know by the beginning of next week, will you?
M: Sure thing. I’ll drop by again on Monday or Tuesday.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. What does Prof. Diana offer Frank?
【解析】選[A]。對話中女士開門見山地提到Frank的助教工作，接下來對他的工作給與了肯定，提到try to keep the teaching assistant on a little longer，也就是希望Frank繼續(xù)工作一段時間，后面的對話也都是圍繞此話題展開，因此選[A]。salary和vacation在對話中沒有涉及。[D]是針對對話中的research on my thesis設(shè)的干擾項。
23. What’s Frank’s answer to Prof. Dianna’s offer?
【解析】選[C]。選項[A]、[C]、[D] 都與男士接受一份工作的情況有關(guān)， [B]是說男士不喜歡這份工作，與其他選項明顯不同，很可能不是答案。女士征求意見時，男士表示I sure would, 但接著又用but進(jìn)行轉(zhuǎn)折，表示自己下學(xué)期會很緊張，并后要求have a few days to think about it，由此可以確定答案為[C]。
24. What does Prof. Dianna suggest that Frank do?
【解析】選[D]。[A]、[C]、[D] 都與教學(xué)或課程有關(guān)，[B]與此關(guān)系不大，很可能不是答案，可初步排除。女士說不希望男士耽誤學(xué)業(yè)，接著用but進(jìn)行轉(zhuǎn)折，認(rèn)為男士應(yīng)該consider getting more experience in the classroom，所以選[D]。
25. What is the gift the professor refers to?
【解析】選[A]。對話中，女士贊揚男士You seem to have a real gift。gift一般有兩個意思，即“禮物(present)”和“天賦(talent)”。整個對話中，女士對男士的能力贊賞有加，不難看出gift表示talent的意思。
