单选题4.【D4】
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】 这是一段电话对话,在电话中顾客询问他所订的服装送货的问题。首先,应该明确三个答案选项的语法功能和语义。A选项是短回答,意思是:那很好。That would be fine常常用于对建议的肯定回答。B选项是短结构,意思是:对了,还有一件事。C选项是主从复合句,意思是:恐怕那是不可能的。 其次,认真阅读对话,特别是仔细体会空白处的上下文的语义。三道题目中最难做的是第4题,可以先从后面两道题入手,最后再结合排除法来做第4题。根据第5题前面顾客的问题Will they be ready in March?(三月份能好吗?)以及它后面订货登记员的补充回答But we'll probably manage them in April(但是,四月可能没问题),中间应该是订货登记员给出的否定回答,所以正确答案应该是C。根据第6题前面的句子Ok,that's fine for now(好的,现在先这样吧)以及它后面的We’d like to cancel for those jackets with fur collars(我们要取消带毛领的夹克的订货)可以判断在对话的最后顾客在查询送货时间外又提出了其他的要求,所以本题的正确答案应该是B,起到了承上启下的作用。最后,第4题的答案应该是A,是对订货登记员给出的回答的反应,与下文中的Ok,that's fine for now的作用和语义相近。
