Listen to a conversation between two students.I don't know about you, but, I'm really looking forward to summer break.I can't even think that far ahead.I've got so much to do before the end of the semester.I've been feeling pretty stressed out lately.Why? What's going on?Well, I just have so many assignments.I've got three major research papers to do and they all due, basically, at the same time, in two weeks.Wow! Three? That is a lot. And research papers take a lot of time.Right, and between my job and classes, there just aren't enough hours in the day to get them all done.Well, is there anything you could cut from your schedule,I mean, you're working part-time in an office in town, aren't you?Why don't you just reduce your hours there for a while, at least till you get the papers done.Well, I guess I could tell my boss I need to cut back on my hours for a couple of weeks,uh, but I don't know, I haven't been working there very long.I don't want to make a bad impression by asking for time off already?What else could you do?Well, another option is I could get an extension on one of the papers.I asked one of my professors about it, my History professor,and she said it would be OK if I handed the paper in a week late.So, I guess I could just concentrate on getting the other two papers done first.Oh, that's great.Yeah, only she said she'd have to take a few points off the grade for the paper since it would be late,you know, to be fair to the other students.Oh, that's a drag. So what are you gonna do?Uh, I don't know yet.
请听两位学生之间的对话。我不知道你怎么想，不过我真的超级期待暑假。我还没法想到那么远。这学期结束之前我要做的事情太多了。最近我压力实在太大了。嗯？怎么了？我的作业太多了。我有三份专业研究报告要写，而且基本上都要在同一时间完成--两周内。哇，三份？那确实很多，而且研究报告要花很多时间。对啊，而且我每天还要上课和工作，根本没有足够时间把它们全搞定。那...你的日程表里有没有可以删掉的活动？你在市里一家办公室兼职，对吗？为什么不暂时减少一些在那上班的时间呢？最起码等你把报告搞定。好吧，我想我可以跟老板说我这两个星期要少工作几个小时，不过我也说不好，我在那工作没多久。现在就请假会让他对我印象不好吧？我不想这样...那你还能怎么办呢？嗯...还有一个选择就是我可以给其中一份报告申请延期。我问过其中一个教授了，我的历史教授，她说我晚一个周交报告也可以。所以，我想这样我就可以先集中精神搞定另外两份报告。哦，那很好啊。是啊，只不过她说因为我交的时间晚，所以为了公平起见，要扣掉我几分。啊，那也是个问题。所以你打算怎么办？我还没想清楚呢。
