[解析] 本题考查的是推理能力。从对话内容看,男士打电话想找一位名叫艾伦·格林的人,关键在于女士的回答“对不起,我们这里没有叫这个名字的人。”因此可以推断出,男士可能拨错电话号码了,正确答案应为选项B。“Nobody by that name works/lives here.”和“You’ve got/dialed the wrong number.”都可以用来回答打错的电话。 [避错指南] 选项A(女士将去叫艾伦.格林来接电话。)可首先排除,因为对话中的nobody指明根本没有这个人;选项C(艾伦·格林已经不在那里工作了。)是错误选项,因为该选项中的not…any more表示“曾经……但现在不……”,但对话中并没有提到艾伦曾在那里工作,所以也可以排除;选项D(女士不认识艾伦·格林。)因为根本没有这个人,因此也就不存在认识不认识的问题。
