M: The Sound of all that traffic is driving me out of my mind.
W: It is bad. But the highway will reopen tomorrow then we won't have all those cars passing by any more.
“driving sb. out of one's mind”是“使某人发疯”,这个短语常用来表达强烈的不满,而第二个说话人说的情况可以消除目前糟糕的状况,选项D中“detour”的意思是“绕行”。

A. He wanted Jessica to come, but she couldn't.
B. He invited Jessica to the party.
C. He didn't invite Jessica to the party.
D. He didn't want to invite Jessica to the party.

W: Maybe you're right.
解题的关键是理解第一个说话人的态度,“I think Jack should invite Jessica to the party”表明说话者认为应该请Jessica来参加聚会。所以应当选择C选项。而“It's not our business.”的意思是“跟我们没关系。”解答本题与第二个说话人没有什么关系。

【正确答案】
C

第一个人用的是“if...had...,”“...could have done...”的条件主从复合句的虚拟语态句型,从而表达与过去的事实相反的情况,这说明第二个人不是在圣诞后买的衣服。所以选项C符合对话的意思。
