多选题 1.【D1】
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】 这段对话是朋友之间讨论彼此最喜欢的音乐。首先,应该明确三个答案选项的语法功能和语义。A选项是时间状语,应该是回答对方关于时间方面的提问;意思是:大概是1978年,我想是我18岁时。B选项是省略的特殊疑问句;意思是:那么,你呢?其中,What about(关于……怎么样)是口语中常用表达,与how about语义和用法相同。C选项是肯定回答,应该是对一般疑问句的回答;意思是:是的,我确实很喜欢它。
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。第1题是对Steve说的“Really?”(真的吗?)的回答,在这Really?的功能等同于一般疑问句,因此正确答案应该是C。后面两道题中好做的是第3题,因为它在when did you first hear that?(你什么时候第一次听到它的?)之后,所以正确答案应该是A,对时间的回答。第2题正确答案是B,在这里,Francesca介绍完第一次听自己最喜欢的那首曲子的经历后,开始询问对方喜欢哪一首。其后的What’s your favourite?(你最喜欢什么?)是进一步明确问题是什么。
