2017英语专业四级听力练习:Conversation(4)


  Questions 1 to 4 are based on the following conversation.

  W: Hey, Tom. How is your literature presentation going?

  M: What literature presentation? I don’t have to give mine until the end of the next week.

  W: You mean you haven’t even started working on it yet?

  M: No. (1) I need the pressure of a deadline to get inspired.

  W: Really? (2) I’m quite the opposite. I can’t concentrate unless I know I have plenty of time. Besides I have a big math test next week. So I want to get my presentation out of the way.

  M: What’s your presentation on?

  W: T.S. Eliot.

  M: Wasn’t he a poet? (3) I thought we were supposed to focus on a novel.

  W: He wrote novels, do you know?

  M: Oh Really? (4) I never knew that. I guess I’ll learn more on Tuesday. Is that when you are supposed to talk?

  W: Uh-huh. But I was going to offer you a preview. (4) I'm looking for someone to tell me whether I’m talking too fast and whether you can follow what I'm saying.

  M: I guess I could do that. When were you thinking of?

  W : Will this afternoon be all right? I have a class to go to now but I’ll be around before dinner.

  M: That sounds good. I’ll stop by your room. It's probably quieter there than in my hall.
