【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Hello, Gina! We"ve spoken so many times on the phone, but it"s so good to finally meet you in person!
W: Hello, Jason. Good to meet you, too. So how was the flight?
M: Pretty good. There was a bit of turbulence while we were over the Pacific Ocean, but it wasn"t too bad. The worst thing was the guy behind me. He snored all through the night!
W: Really? But you were in first class! Nobody woke that guy up?
M: The stewardess said it was not the company policy to wake people up for any reason.
W: That"s terrible! So you didn"t get any sleep?
M: Not much...but that"s ok...I"m a night owl anyway.
W: So, aside from visiting our factory and offices, are there any other things you want to accomplish while you"re in China?
M: I"d love to squeeze in a trip to the Great Wall.
W: That"s not a problem.
M: Also...I"d like to do some shopping while I"m here.
W: Well, China is a shopping paradise.
M: To be honest, I"m not really sure about what I"m looking for. But I need gifts for my wife and kids, and I should bring something back for the senior partners of my firm as well.
W: Hum...I"d recommend silk for your wife. Maybe a bathrobe or perhaps a shawl. Silk dresses and shirts are good, too.
M: Yeah...that sounds good. But my wife is picky so I"ll need your help to choose the right one. It should be classy and not too flashy.
W: I think I know just the store to visit. Leave it to me.
M: Hey! You know what might be good gifts for my business associates? Chinese antiques!
W: Well, we certainly have lots of antique art, statues and carvings, but in most cases it"s not legal to take genuine antiques out of China.
M: Oh, I see. That makes sense. You have to preserve your heritage.
W: But there are many reproductions of antiques for sale.
M: You mean fakes?
W: A fake is when the dealer lies and says the piece is ancient. A reproduction is legal and they can be quite beautiful. You could take home some classical Chinese statutes as decorations for their offices.
M: Yeah! That would look cool. Maybe some scrolls or traditional paintings.
W: Good idea. Scrolls with Chinese cursive calligraphy look great on an office wall. And...they might even bring you luck!
M: You can"t beat that! But what about the kids?
W: Humm...that"s a bit trickier. There are of course, lots of counterfeit goods available like software or music, but buying them isn"t recommended.
M: No, I don"t buy counterfeits. Besides...my sons have loads of computer games and CDs.
W: Hey! I know. You could have old-style Chinese suits custom-made for them! They can go around looking like little Chinese emperors! I know a great tailor!
M: Ha! Perfect! They"d like that for sure. Wow Gina. You"re full of great ideas. I should tell your boss to give you a raise.
W: Not at all. Just demonstrating some traditional Chinese hospitality.
What annoyed Jason most when he was on the flight?
[解析] 细节题。题目中的most是提示信息。录音中提到“There was a bit of turbulence while we were over the Pacific Ocean but it wasn"t too bad. The worst thing was the guy behind me. He snored all through the night!”可见最令人讨厌的是有一个人整晚都在打呼噜。A是迷惑信息。录音中男士又提到“The stewardess said it was not the company policy to wake people up for any reason.”，女士说道：“That"s terrible! So you didn"t get any sleep?”男士说：“Not much...but that"s ok...I"m a night owl anyway.”可见C和D虽然也是旅途中的不愉快，但不是最不愉快的。
