问题  
W: Can I help you? Are you looking for something in particular?
M: Yes, well, first I’m looking for the foreign language section.
W: Oh, it’s right down here. Here we are. "Foreign Languages". What course are you taking?
M: Spanish Four Thirty-one.
W: You need the Intermediate Spanish textbook?
M: No, I still have that from Four Thirty. What I’m looking for is the novel we’re supposed to read: Garcia Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude.
W: "Garcia Marquez", "Garcia Marquez". Hmm. No... Oh, here it is, under "Marquez". Here you are.
M: Eighteen dollars? The price is right, but, erm, it’s just the text. There don’t seem to be any footnotes or any glossary.
W: Ah.
M: This is the only edition you have?
W: Yes, it is. Sorry.
M: Hmm. How many copies do you have left? Just those on the shelf?
W: Yes, uh, four--no, five copies.
M: Jeez, those’ll be gone by Friday for sure. Our class is really full. What’s your return policy? Would it be OK if I bought this now, and then returned it if I can find an annotated edition on the internet?
W: Yes, certainly. But you’ll need to keep your receipt,of course, and be sure that the book is not marked up or damaged in any way.
M: Sure, that’s fair enough.
W: Did you want me to check whether we can find you another edition?
M: I don’t think I have time. It usually takes so long to get a book through a bookstore.
W: Unfortunately, that’s often true.
M: Thanks anyway. I’ll take this then, and say-- you have sweatshirts, don’t you?
W: Sweatshirts? Yes, in the "School Spirit" section. Over this way. And down here. Um. Here you are.
M: Ah. Yes. Hmm... That’s not much of a school crest.
W: Oh. There’s a bigger one on the back, see?
M: Oh, yeah, of course. I see. Uh, this is a medium. I need a large, and uh... I think... in green.
W: Medium, medium... here, is this a large? Yes, large. Here you go.
M: Yeah, that’s good. Say, do you know what our motto means, anyway?
W: "From Determination comes Truth". It’s been SU’s motto since it was founded in 1894.
M: Huh. That’s really interesting. I’ll wear it with pride-- and hope for some of that determination! How much is this?
W: $39.95 plus tax.
M: Fine. Uh, what else do I need now? Mmm... I guess that’s it, then the sweatshirt and the book.
W: And there’s no tax on the book.
M: Where’s your register?
W: Just take them up to the cashier at the front, please. Over there.
M: Oh, OK. Thanks a lot for your help.
W: Thank you. Have a nice day.

答案B

解析 ①女士帮男士找到《百年孤独》这本书以后,男士提到书的价钱是合适的,但是这个版本没有脚注和词汇表,因此这不是他想要的版本,本题B“没有脚注”正确。②A“价格太高”与男士所说的价格合适恰恰相反。C“有词汇表”正是男士想要的,所以不正确。D“只剩下五本”利用文中的一个信息做干扰,并不是这本书的存在的问题。
