一、Suggestions on paper revision托福听力原文：

NARRATOR:Listen to part of a conversation between a student and a professor.

MALE STUDENT:I'm so sorry I'm late,Professor Mills.I just finished at the Student Medical Center—I twisted my ankle playing soccer this morning. It took longer than I expected to see the doctor.

FEMALE PROFESSOR:That's OK. Don't worry about it,David.So,lets get started.Your paper on John Dewey's political philosophy has a few issues I'd like to cover.You gave a great biographical sketch in the beginning.OK.But then as you get into his political philosophy,I don't think you've done enough to situate his philosophy within the time period.In other words,you haven't connected Dewey's philosophy to the thinking of other intellectuals of the time.

MALE STUDENT:So I haven't captured the most critical influences,the influences that were most significant to his political thinking?FEMALE PROFESSOR:Exactly.OK.Now look back up at this section here...where you wrote about Dewey's view of individuality.This is all good content.but you haven't presented the information in a systematic way.I really think this portion on individuality needs to come later—after your paragraphs on Dewey's intellectual influences.MALE STUDENT:After my revised paragraphs on what influenced him.FEMALE PROFESSOR:Yes,revised.Let me ask,uh,when you were finished writing,did you go back and ask yourself if all of the material was relevant?MALE STUDENT:Well,no.FEMALE PROFESSOR:I do think there are areas that can be cut.I guess what I'm saying is that your paragraphs aren't really presented in a logical order...the direction of your argument isn't crystal clear.And there's some unnecessary material getting in the way.MALE STUDENT:OK.Sounds like I have a lot to do.FEMALE PROFESSOR:And one more thing...do you have a copy of the department's document on the correct format for in-text citations and references?MALE STUDENT:No,um,I-I mean,I looked at it online when I was working on this assignment.FEMALE PROFESSOR:You really should print it out.You're going to need it for every paper you write in the political science department.It looks like you were getting it mixed up with another referencing system.MALE STUDENT:Oh.Y ah,I used something different in high school.It's so confusing switching to a new system.FEMALE PROFESSOR:I know,but remember—everything needs to be consistent when it comes to referencing.It's a very important academic convention.Oh,also,I wanted to ask you...will you be at the Political Science Club meeting Saturday?MALE STUDENT:Definitely.The topic's John Dewey!FEMALE PROFESSOR:Yes.Are you interested in leading part of the discussion?Tom Hayward is looking for someone to help out.I think you'll have a lot to contribute.MALE STUDENT:That'd be fun!I'll give him a call.

旁白：听一段学生和教授之间的对话。

男学生：很抱歉我迟到了，米尔斯教授。我刚在学生医疗中心结束今天早上踢足球时扭伤了脚踝&nbsp；看医生的时间比我预期的要长。

女教授：没关系；别担心，大卫。所以，让我们开始吧。你关于约翰·杜威政治哲学的论文有几个问题我想谈一下。你一开始就写了一个很棒的传记小品。好吧，但当你进入他的政治哲学时，我认为你还没有做足够的工作来将他的哲学定位在这个时间段内。换句话说，你没有把杜威的哲学与当时其他知识分子的思想联系起来。

男学生：所以我没有捕捉到最关键的影响，对他的政治思想最重要的影响？女教授：没错。好，现在回头看看这一节……你写了杜威的个性观。这都是很好的内容。但你没有以系统的方式展示信息。我真的认为，这部分关于个性的内容需要在你们关于杜威的思想影响的段落之后。男学生：在我修改了影响他的段落之后。女教授：是的，修改了。让我问一下，当你写完后，你有没有回去问自己所有的材料是否都是相关的？男学生：嗯，不，女教授：我确实认为有些地方是可以削减的。我想我想说的是，你的段落并没有按照逻辑顺序呈现…你的论点的方向并不清晰。还有一些不必要的材料挡住了路。男学生：好的。听起来我有很多事情要做。女教授：还有一件事……你有一份系里文件的复印件，它的格式是正确的，用于文本引用和参考文献吗？男学生：不，嗯，我的意思是，当我在做这个作业时，我在网上看了它。女教授：你真的应该把它打印出来。你在政治学系写的每一篇论文都需要它。看起来你把它和另一个参考系统混在一起了。男学生：哦。啊，我高中时用了一些不同的东西。切换到一个新的系统太令人困惑了。女教授：我知道，但请记住，当涉及到引用时，一切都需要保持一致。这是一个非常重要的学术会议。哦，还有，我想问你…你会参加周六的政治科学俱乐部会议吗？男学生：当然。主题是约翰·杜威！女教授：是的。你有兴趣领导讨论吗？汤姆·海沃德正在找人帮忙。我认为你会有很多贡献。男学生：那太有趣了！我会给他打电话。
