3 .I'm having some trouble finding enough information on the seasonal migration of the Alaskan Bar-tailed Godwits.
该句暂无译文!
第3段
1 .Ah, the Godwit, a fascinating species, yet a bit obscure I believe.
该句暂无译文!
2 .There haven't been many studies on that particular bird though I do love the long brown bill.
该句暂无译文!
3 .Did you know the Bar-tailed Godwit is the holder of the longest nonstop flight known for any bird,
该句暂无译文!
4 .6,835 miles from Alaska to New Zealand?
该句暂无译文!
5 .Isn't that fascinating?
该句暂无译文!
第4段
1 .Of course, Professor.
该句暂无译文!
2 .I was able to find that fact.
该句暂无译文!
3 .Actually, it is stated in most of the resources I looked at.
该句暂无译文!
4 .Unfortunately, it was about the only fact I was able to find on the Bar-tailed Godwit.
该句暂无译文!
第5段
1 .I see. Well, I thought it would be a little difficult researching the Godwit,
该句暂无译文!
2 .but not that hard.
该句暂无译文!
第6段
1 .Well, yes it is, which is why I'm so concerned.
该句暂无译文!
2 .The minimum length of the paper is,
该句暂无译文!
3 .as you, uh, know, eight pages typed.
该句暂无译文!
4 .I don't think I'll be able to find enough information for that length of a paper. I mean,
该句暂无译文!
5 .I could probably stretch it to half that right now,
该句暂无译文!
6 .but that would be pushing it.
该句暂无译文!

1 .Next Friday, hmm, I see.
该句暂无译文!
2 .That gives you roughly one week to complete it, correct?
该句暂无译文!
第10段
1 .That's correct, sir. I'm really starting to panic because I have a number of other papers due next week,
该句暂无译文!
2 .and then with finals the week after that,
该句暂无译文!
3 .I'm worrying if I'm going to be able to put my best effort into this paper.
该句暂无译文!
4 .And now I can't seem to find any info on the bird.
该句暂无译文!
第11段
1 .Well, I have an idea.
该句暂无译文!
2 .Would you feel comfortable changing your topic this late in the game?
该句暂无译文!
3 .I could assign you a more research friendly topic, and you could get to work on that.
该句暂无译文!
4 .What do you, uh, think?
该句暂无译文!
第12段
1 .That might be a good idea as long as it isn't as obscure as the migrational habits of the Alaskan Godwit, Professor.
该句暂无译文!
2 .What do you think would be a good topic?
该句暂无译文!
第13段
1 .Now, let's see.
该句暂无译文!
2 .How about the cuckoos, which are genuine long distance migratory birds in the tropics?
该句暂无译文!
3 .There's been tons written on them, of course, and I doubt you'll have any trouble finding enough stuff on them.
该句暂无译文!
第14段
1 .The cuckoo, huh? I'll be the laughing stock of our seminar.
该句暂无译文!
2 .Can't you assign a bird with a better intellectual reputation than the cuckoo?
该句暂无译文!
第15段
1 .I do beg to differ. The cuckoo is a bird of impeccable intelligence.
该句暂无译文!
2 .How most laymen think of the cuckoo as a silly, stupid bird is a misnomer!
该句暂无译文!
第16段
1 .Please, Professor! Can't you give me something different?
该句暂无译文!
第17段
1 .Oh, all right. Let's see here. Um, no, well, uh,
该句暂无译文!
2 .how about the Pink-footed Goose? If I recall correctly, they migrate each year from Iceland to England.
该句暂无译文!
3 .One of my colleagues has written four books on them,
该句暂无译文!
4 .which I can let you borrow.
该句暂无译文!
第18段
1 .The Pink-footed Goose sounds perfect, Professor!
该句暂无译文!
2 .And that would be wonderful if I could borrow those texts from you.
该句暂无译文!

该句暂无译文!
第19段
1 .I have the utmost trust in you.
该句暂无译文!
第20段
1 .Thank you, thank you, Professor. You've been very accommodating and patient with me, and I appreciate that.
该句暂无译文!
2 .Most professors wouldn't have gone out of their way just for one student like you have. Thanks!
该句暂无译文!
第21段
1 .Oh, don't mention it. I know you guys are under a lot of pressure these days with all the new academic requirements,
该句暂无译文!
2 .and it is the least I can do to help you out once in a while when I can.
该句暂无译文!
3 .Now, why don't you get out of here and start to work on that paper?
该句暂无译文!
4 .I'm really looking forward to, uh,
该句暂无译文!
5 .reading about the Pink-footed Goose.
