单选题
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文]23-25
M: I suppose you must have heard about that great piece of concrete falling onto a car in that terrible accident in South Street yesterday, didn't you, Jane?
W: Yes, I saw it in the paper. From a 200-foot high building, wasn't it? I gather the driver had just got out or he'd have been killed, wouldn't he?
M: Oh, yes. I saw the car; it was totally damaged.
W: You usually park your car around there, don't you, Bill?
M: Yes, I left it in that very spot a couple of days ago, but yesterday it was parked up the road.
W: You were lucky then, weren't you, Bill?
M: Out of luck, you mean! I'd be very pleased if my old ear were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then, couldn't I?
W: But you used to be so proud of your car, wern't you?
M: I used to be years ago, but now there arc all sorts of repairs to be done, and I just haven't got enough spare cash to put it right.
W: You can always sell it, can't you?
M: Few people are stupid enough to buy a car in that state, are they?
W: The man whose car was crushed yesterday was very annoyed about it. He'll be given a new car by the builders, though.
M: Yes, but his car was a specially-built model that can't be replaced, and there was hardly anything wrong with it, was there?
W: Well, that's life! When people actually want to get rid of their cars, this sort of thing seldom happens, does it?
23.What happened in South Street yesterday?

[解析] 分析选项,[B]、[C]、[D]都是对事故的具体描述,[A]表述过于笼统,与其他选项明显不同,可初步排除。对话一开始男士就提到a great piece of concrete falling onto a car,因此[B]正确。而女士对此的反应是 ... or he'd have been killed,虚拟语气的使用表明the driver was not killed,由此可以排除[D]。该事故与车祸无关,因此[C]错误。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文]
Why does Bill consider himself unlucky in yesterday's incident?

[解析] [A]、[C]都把对话中的男士当成了事故中的受害者,不符合文意。对话中男士对自己的车幸免于难的感受是:Out of luck;并随即说明了理由:I'd be very pleased if my old car were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then ...,由此可知,男士的旧车上过保险,因此他认为自己错过了一个既能摆脱负担,又能获得赔偿的好机会,[D]符合题意。
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[听力原文]
According to Bill, how did the owner feel when he knew his car was crushed?

[解析] 本题涉及到对此事故的感受。听音时注意听清问题向的是车主的感受,而不是说话者的感受。由对话中男士说的“The man whose car was crushed yesterday was very annoyed about it.”不难得出答案为[A]。
