问题 What is the possible relationship between the two speakers?
  
W: Good Afternoon. May I help you with something?
M: Good Afternoon. [8B] Are you Mrs. Brooks? I received a notice to see you about some books. I’m Richard Crosby…
W: Oh, yes. I recall the name. Won’t you sit down?
M: Thank you. [9D]I just wanted to say that, uh, the missing books. Well, it’s a long story. But I assure you I’m innocent. I can explain everything.
W: [9D]Relax, Mr. Crosby. You’re not under arrest, you know. But I admit I’d like to know why you haven’t returned our books.
M: I nearly returned them, but I forgot, you see, when my wife put the suitcase back in the closet. That’s it.
W: Pardon me? Would you explain that again please?
M: Certainly. I was going to return the books last month. [10C]I put them all in a suitcase. But at the last minute I forgot to take the suitcase to school. Then Harriet put the suitcase back in the closet. After that I forgot all about the books until I received your notice.
W: Well, I’ve never heard that excuse before. So now you’re returning all the books?
M: Yes. Do I have to pay a fine?
W: I’m afraid so. But maybe we can reduce it a little. A story like yours deserves some reward.

选项 A、He wanted to keep them for further use.
B、The deadline just slipped his mind.
C、He forgot to take the case where the books are.
D、His wife threw the books away with trash.

答案C

解析 细节题。男士说他本打算上个月还书,但他把书放在了手提箱里以后,在去学校时忘了带手提箱,所以没能按时还书,故答案为[C]。
