新视野大学英语视听说教程第三册 Unit 2 MODEL 1 You’re just going to have study hard

Nora: Only our first day back at school, and already I feel like I’ve learned a lot.

Chris: Only our first day back at school, and I already feel like I’m up to my ears in homework.

Nora: You’re going to have to hit the books if you want to keep your grades up.

Chris: Tell me about it! I already have two reports, two books reports, a composition, an oral report, and a research project—all due before midterms.

Nora: We could work together. Maybe some of my organized study habit would rub off on you.

Chris: Better yet, maybe you could do my homework for me.

Nora: Forget it! That would be cheating.

Chris: All right, all right. I have yet to write a term paper. Can you recommend any articles and books? You’d better find me the exact pages where I can find what I want.

Nora: You could borrow ideas from references, but if you quote without giving the sources, you’re plagiarizing.

Chris: The quiz next week will be a headache. If you don’t help me, I’ll have to prepare some study sheets and hide them in my hand when I take the test.

Nora: Oh, no! If you’re caught, the professor will definitely give you an F. Probably, you will have to repeat the year.

Chris: All right, I’ll take your advice. The library is going to be my new home, and in the dorm I’ll be burning the midnight oil.
