单选题
How has Christine spent her summer?
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文]1-3
I: And Christine, what about you? What have you been doing this summer?
C: Working, mostly.
I: You mean you've been studying?
C: Oh, no, I've been doing a job to earn money.
I: And have you made your fortune yet?
C: Hardly! But I haven't done too badly. I've been getting about 70 a week, plus my meals and my accommodation, so I've earned over 500 and I've managed to set aside most of it.
I: That sounds pretty good. What kind of work have you been doing exactly?
C: I've been working in a hotel.
I: What, as a waitress?
C: No. I've been helping in the kitchen most of the time--Washing and peeling vegetables, preparing breakfast trays, washing up--that sort of thing.
I: And have you been enjoying it? Or has it been rather boring?
C: No, it hasn't been too bad. I've found it quite interesting here, in fact. Not so much the work itself, but the people I've got to know and the friends. It is a seaside town, so there's been quite a lot goings on in the evenings--you know, dancing, bowling, cinemas, and so on -- and on my afternoons off I've been doing quite a bit of sunbathing
and swimming.
I: Yes, I can see you've got quite brown. You've obviously been having some reasonable weather here. Well, thank you very much, Christine. Good luck!
[解析] 根据第2题和第3题的问题可知,在夏天Christine工作了,故将答案锁定在[B]和[D]之间。又由I've been doing a job to earn money, working in a hotel和I've been helping in the kitchen most of the time可知答案为[D]。
单选题
What has Christine done with her earned money?
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[解析] 题干问的是克里斯廷怎样处理挣到的钱,由对话中的I've managed to set aside most of it可以找到答案,其中set aside意为“储存”,与save意思相近,因此答案为[D]。
单选题
What time can she have a rest from work?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] [A]、[C]、[D]都说的是时间段,而[B]却说的是一种情况,故很可能不是答案。又由对话中的on my afternoons off...可知Christine一般在下午休息,故答案为[C]。
