M: Hello, I wish to buy a bottle of wine.
W: Hi, yes. What kind of wine would you like?
M: I don’t know. Sorry, I don’t know much about wine.
W: That’s no problem at all. What’s the occasion and how much would you like to spend?
M: It’s for my boss. It’s his birthday. I know he likes wine, but I don’t know what type. I also do not want anything too expensive. Maybe mid-range. How much would you say is a mid-range bottle of a wine approximately?
W: Well, it varies greatly. [5] Our lowest prices are around $6 a bottle, but those are table wines. They are not very special and I would not suggest them as a gift. On the other end, our most expensive bottles are over $150. If you are looking for something priced in the middle, I would say anything between $30 and $60 would make a decent gift. How does that sound?
M: Mmm, yeah. [6] I guess something in the vicinity of 30 or 40 would be good. Which type would you recommend?
W: [7] I would say the safest option is always a red wine. They are generally more popular than whites and can usually be paired with food more easily. Our specialty here are Italian wines, and these tend to be fruity with medium acidity. [8-1] This one here is a Chianti which is perhaps Italy’s most famous type of red wine. Alternatively, you may wish to try and surprise your boss with something less common such as this Zinfandel. The grapes are originally native to Croatia, but this winery is in eastern Italy. And it has a more spicy and peppery flavor. So, to summarize, the Chianti is more classical and Zinfandel more exciting. Both are similarly priced at just under $40.
M: [8-2] I’ll go with Chianti then, thanks.
Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
5. What does the woman think of table wines?
6. What is the price range of wine the man will consider?
7. Why does the woman recommend red wines?
8. What do we learn about the wine the man finally bought?

选项 A、They come in a great variety.
B、They do not make decent gifts.
C、They do not vary much in price.
D、They go well with Italian food.

答案B

解析 浏览四个选项,根据选项中出现的variety,decent sifts,price,go well with等词可以推测,该题可能涉及对某种酒的看法。题于问的是女士是怎么看待佐餐酒的。对话中女士说价格最低的酒大约6美元一瓶,但是都是佐餐酒,并不是很特别,她不建议选它们做礼物。故答案为B(它们不是体面的礼物)。A项(它们种类繁多)、C项(它们在价格上变化不大)和D项(它们和意大利食物很搭配)均与对话不符,故排除。
