【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】W: May I see your license, please?
M: But officer, did I do something wrong?
W: [23] Do you mean to say you didn't see the speed limit sign back there?
M: [23] Um, no, ma'am, I guess I didn't.
W: In other words, you drove by too fast to read it. The sign says 35m/h. [22] A school is ,just nearby,you know?
M: Don't get me wrong, but my speedometer didn't read much faster than that.
W: Then, why is it that my radar showed you were going 45? Let me put it another way. I'm going to have to give you a ticket. Again, may I see your license, please?
M: Here it is, officer. But let me explain. I was late for an important appointment and I was worried that I wouldn't make it on time. So...
W: Um ha, just a minute, here. [24] Your license is no longer valid. You should have renewed it two weeks ago. I'm going to have to write you up for that, too.
M: What? Really?
W: Your license becomes invalid on your birthday and that was two weeks ago according to the date here. You are in violation of the law—driving without a valid license.
M: I'm sorry, ma'am. I hadn't realized that.
W: [25] Here's the ticket for not having a valid license. But I'm only going to give you a warning about exceeding the speed limit. Be careful next time.
M: Yes, ma'am, officer, I will. Thank you.
22. Where was the man stopped by the police officer?
[解析] 女警官说男士开车太快,没有注意到一个35m/h的告示牌,接着用反问句说明限速的原因:一所学校就在附近,因此选B。
[点睛] ①选项都是关于地点的介词短语,因此判断本题可能会问与地点相关的问题。②其他三项关键词“十字路口”,“警察局”以及“幼儿园”在对话中均未提及。
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】What did the man claim about the speed limit sign?
[解析] 当被问及是不是没注意到限速告示牌时,男士回答说他没有看到,因此选A。
[点睛] ①根据选项中的not notice, too fast to read it, not clearly visible可推测本题可能会问跟“没有看到某个东西”有关的问题。②B是女警官说的,并非男士,答非所问;“45英里/小时”是女士雷达上显示的男士的车速,并非男士对限速告示牌的说法,C也不对;D“限速牌不是很清晰”,对话中未提及。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】What did the woman say about the man's driving license?
[解析] 女警官说男士的驾照已经过期了,两周前就应该更新了,因此选C。
[点睛] ①根据选项should have been renewed, no longer valid, not genuine可推测本题可能会问It存在的问题。②A的two months与录音中的two weeks不符;B的“属于别人”和D的“假的”在对话中没有提及。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】What was the man's penalty?
[解析] 女警官因为男士的驾照过期给他开了张罚单,但对他的超速行车只是口头警告,并叮嘱他下次小心,因此答案为B。
[点睛] ①根据选项中的was fined, got a ticket, license canceled可推测本题可能会问男士受到的惩罚是什么。②A的“35美元”和D的“社区服务”女警官都没有提及:对话中也没有提及“女警官吊销男士的驾照”,因此C也不对。
