听力原文
M: Hello, Professor Johnson. W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work on today? M: Well, the
problem is that this writing assignment isn’t coming out right. What I thought I was
writing on was to talk about what a particular sport means to me—one I participate in. W:
What sport did you choose? M: I decided to write about cross-country skiing. W: What are
you going to say about skiing? M: That’s the problem. I thought I would write about how
peaceful it is to be out in the country. W: So why is that a problem? M: As I start
describing how quiet it is to be out in the woods, I keep mentioning how much effort it
takes to keep going. Cross-country skiing isn’t as easy as some people think. It takes a
lot of energy. But that’s not part of my paper, so I guess I should leave it out. But now
I don’t know how to explain that feeling of peacefulness without explaining how hard you
have to work for it. It all fits together. It’s not like just sitting down somewhere and
watching the clouds roll by. That’s different. W: Then you’ll have to include that in
your point. The peacefulness of cross-country skiing is the kind you earn by effort. Why
leave that out? Part of your point you knew beforehand, but part you discovered as you
wrote. That’s common, right? M: Yeah, I guess so …
