23、? 1 【正确答 案】 A 【试题解析】 选项都是不定式结构，由此预测该题可能问目的。 A项中的extra English writing training是对话开头工作人员告诉学生的项目目的，也是本题的正确答案。 B项 “教学生怎样成为作家 ”和 C项 “指导如何写论文 ”分别是创意写作和学术写作两门课程的目的，不够全面。 D项 “帮助学术写作不好的学生 ”未在对话中出现，可以直接排除。 【知识模块】 对话 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 对话中的男士不是全日制的学生，他担心自己不具备参加项目的资格，因此向 工作人员询问。工作人员回答说接受英语系所有学生的申请，非全日制或全日制都可以，故
