We can’t come to the (8)_____ right now. If you want us to call you back, please leave your name and number after the beep." Then you will hear a "beep", (9)_____ is a brief, high-pitched (10)_____. After the beep, you can say who you are, whom you want to speak to, and what number the person should call to (11)_____ you, or you can leave a (12)_____.

Some large businesses and government agencies are using telephone answering machines to provide information on (14)_____ about which they receive a large volume of (15)_____. Generally speaking, using these systems (16)_____ you to have a touch-tone phone (a phone with buttons rather than a rotary dial).

You listen (18)_____ you hear the topic you want to learn about, and then you push the (19)_____ button. Immediately after making your (20)_____, you will hear a recorded message on the topic.
选项
A、place
B、phone
C、home
D、room
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。该句提到的是录音电话的留言提示,根据常识可知,当时主人一定无法接听电话,所以提示打电话者留言——If you want us to call you back,please leave your name and number after the beep,(如果想让我们回电话,在听到嘟的一声后,请留下姓名和电话)。根据上下文的意思,此话是主人不在家时电话的录音内容。因此正确选项是phone,表示不能接电话之意。place,home,room都是表示地点的名词,与phone相比,这些词都过于笼统,不能准确传递信息。
