　　譯文與解析：

　　17.男：我開始擔心詹妮的功課了。這些天她說的全是排球比賽的事情。她每天做的事情都是練習，訓練之類的事。

　　女：她下次考試肯定會不及格的。我們是時候要跟她講講道理了。

　　問：說話者可能做的事情是什么?

　　答：Its high time...是時候該做 ，talk some sense into somebody 對某人講講道理。對話中男人說擔心孩子的功課，女人附和說她下次考試肯定會不及格，又說要對孩子講講道理了，也就是讓孩子專注于學業的意思。因此正確答案為A，敦促詹妮花更多的時間學習。B，幫助詹妮準備下次考試，C，更明智的對待詹妮，均未提及。D，把詹妮送去排球訓練中心，二人因為詹妮沉迷于排球已經很擔心了，不可能把她送去訓練中心，因此排除。
