Man's Problem: He has a study group tomorrow with other students for a physics exam, but there is a presentation on writing novels held at the same time.
Possible Solutions:
1) Attend the study group:
- Can't change the time since other students aren't free at other times.
- It's better to study with them because they are better at physics than he is, and he has some materials that he doesn't fully understand. (Communicating by email isn't helpful)
- Can read the article and listen to the recording on the presentation afterwards.
2) Go to the Presentation:
- He is passionate about writing and really wants to go.
- The writer giving the presentation may not come to his university again。
- Reading the article on the event website is not the same as listening to the presentation in-person.
- The man can study on his own. The other members in the study group said he could email them if he had questions.
