W: Hey, Henry, how’s everything going, and what’s with the flowers?
M: They’re for my wife.
W: Oh, a wedding anniversary or something?
M: To tell the truth, it couldn’t be worse. You see, I have to pick my wife up from the airport this evening, but while she was gone, there were a few minor mishaps.
W: Oh really? What happened?
M: Well, I had some of the guys over Friday night to watch a basketball game on TV, but one of them got all excited, and started horsing around, waving his arms, and he accidentally knocked over my wife’s 250-year-old Chinese porcelain vase given to her by her grandmother, and broke it beyond repair.
W: Oh no! You’re in hot water now.
M: If it had only been that.
W: Oh, there’s more?
M: Yeah, you see, the water from the vase spilled all over the manuscript of a book my wife has been writing for the past two years. It blurred the ink over many of the pages.
W: Oh no!
M: And so one of the guys had the bright idea of drying the pages by the fire while we watched, uh, the rest of game, but a spark from the fire must have blown out and burned the manuscript to a crisp.
W: Ah, so I get it now. You’re buying the flowers for her as a part of some kind of peace offering, right?
M: No, not at all. They’re for my funeral.
12. What was Henry doing Friday night when his problems started?
13. How was the vase broken?
14. How did the manuscript of the book become totally ruined?
15. How will his wife feel when she got the whole story?
选项
A、It burned up in a fire.
B、Hot water damaged the entire copy.
C、Someone mistakenly threw it into the trash.
D、It was soaked in blue ink.
答案
A
解析
选项讲的是一件东西怎么被毁坏的。在说完花瓶被打破之后,Henry又说“如果仅仅如此也就好了。”可见还有更糟糕的事发生,紧接着,他提到了书稿的遭遇,根据“但肯定是有火星进出来.把书稿给烧焦了”可知书最终是被火烧毁的,因此选A。B、D都是含有原词的干扰项,C在对话中根本没有提到。
