　　Conversation Two

　　M: Hi, Janet. Have you seen the exam schedule for this term yet?

　　W: No, I haven't. How many exams should I take?

　　M: Well. It all depends on the classes you're taking and whether your professors are giving final exams.

　　W: I know that! And that's why I'm so nervous. I think I've got tests in every class I'm taking.

　　M: (22) Would you believe that I have four exams scheduled on the same day?

　　W: You've got to be kidding. Isn't there some school regulation about that you're not required to take more than three on the same day?

　　M: Well if there is a rule. I'm certainly going to find out about it. I'm not sure if I can even handle two or three tests, much less four.

　　W: (23) You really should check with the Dean of Students Office. The same thing happened to Richard last year and he was able to reschedule one of his.

　　M: By the way, do you want to know (24) when our history and psychology tests are?

　　W: Sure, why not?

　　M: History is 4th period on Tuesday the 15th and psychology is 2nd period on Wednesday the 16th.

　　W: I'm not much worried about the psychology test, (25)but Professor Gore said that the history test was going to be on everything we covered this term. You know those historians.

　　M: Yeah. That sounds terrible. My advanced mathematics and chemistry tests are probably going to be tough.

　　C)。 [聽前猜測] 四個選項是以He開頭，和考試有關(guān)的句子，由此可以推測，本題考查內(nèi)容與某人的考試相關(guān)。

　　[精解] 男士跟女士抱怨說，你能相信嗎，我四門考試被排在了同一天(four exams scheduled on the same day)�？梢娔惺坑魫灥脑�因在于，他同一天有太多的考試。故正確答案為C)。

　　23. What does the woman suggest the man do?
