Narrator: Now listen to a conversation between a student and an academic advisor.
Female advisor: You look upset, Brad. Is everything OK?
Male student: [WORRIED] Not exactly… I’ve been looking at my courses for next semester and, uh... I think I can’t graduate on time.
Female advisor: [CONCERNED] Oh really? Why not?
Male student: Well, I need to take American Literature and Intro to Biology before fall semester if I’m gonna graduate next year. But on Wednesdays, American Lit ends at 2 pm, and, uhh...
Female advisor: ...that Biology course starts at 1:50 on Wednesdays. Yes, I see that in the course catalog. Well, you can take the English class this summer, instead.
Male student: Oh yeah? That’d fix the issue. Oh! [REALIZING] But what about money? I mean, the thing is I’d need to live on campus over the summer, and I don’t think I have the funds for that. My dad’s been paying for housing, and he’s kinda expecting me to move back home for the summer—he might not be so understanding about this.
Female advisor: Hmmm… Not sure what to tell you there. Aright, so why not see if one of the professors will give you permission to leave class early, or—ah—start late?
Male student: I thought about that, yeah. But I mean, besides that I don’t love the idea of asking for special treatment like that, I’m a little worried I might miss important parts of the class.
Female advisor: I guess you’ve got a tough call to make. But, uhh... I can tell you that Professor Adler, the woman who teaches American Lit, is always willing to work with students who have conflicts like this.
Male student: OK. I’ll check with—um—Professor Adler then. After I talk to her, I’ll decide what to do.
Narrator: Briefly summarize the problem the speakers are discussing. Then state which of the two solutions from the conversation you would recommend. Explain the reasons for your recommendation.
