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、He was watching a game on TV with some friends.
B、He was seeing his wife off at the airport.
C、He was having a barbeque with some friends.
D、He was playing a game with some friends.
答案
A
解析
选项讲的是男士当时在干什么。听到女士问“哦,是吗?发生什么事了?”时,就该预测到后面讲的是事情的经过。男士随即说道。“我有几个朋友周五晚上过来看篮球赛。”所以选A。男士将要去机场接妻子,而不是B;C中的barbeque在录音中未提及;对话中出现过game,但它是basketball game的省略表达,D利用game进行语音干扰。
