C
【答案解析】[解析] W: Adam, I'm sorry! M: But where have you been, Alice? You're over an hour late. W: Yes. But I couldn't help it. I was late getting off work for a start, and then I missed the bus. The bus I did catch got caught in a traffic jam.It was one thing after another. M: But why were you so late getting off work? The office closes at six, doesn't it? W: Yes, but there was a rush on at the moment, and my boss asked me to do some urgent letters. M: But didn't you tell him you had an appointment? W: Well, no. I thought I'd finish in about five minutes. If it hadn't been for missing the bus and the traffic, I wouldn't have been so late. I'm sorry. M: Well, you're here. And that's the main thing.
