单选题
单选题 What do you suppose Mary did the day before?
A. She attended her grandfather's funeral.
B. She told a lie to get the day off.
C. She meant to attend a funeral but she didn't.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[解析]
M: Do you believe in life after death, Mary?
W: Yes, sir.
M: Well, then, that makes everything just fine. About an hour after you left yesterday to go to your grandfather's funeral, he dropped in to see you.
本题属于推断题。听音重点和答题关键都在于对第二个话轮中男士的话语的理解。男士指出,昨天女士说要去参加祖父葬礼而离开,但半个小时后她祖父顺道过来看她(he dropped in to see you),听懂了这一句,结合常识即可知,昨天女士是撒谎找借口离开,故选[B]。
单选题 What did you suppose Mary's grandfather did the day before?
A. He knew Mary had cheated her boss and came to expose her.
B. He was dying but was saved by the doctors.
C. He was thought to be dead but in fact was well and alive.
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] 本题同样属于推断题。由于女士说去参加祖父葬礼是个谎话,并且其祖父还来看她,所以她祖父当然是活得好好的。
