问题 When did Carolyn call Bob?
  
(Carolyn = W, Bob=M)
W: Bob, you weren’t at home last Saturday, were you? I tried to call you.
M: Oh, that’s right, Carolyn. (1)I suppose you phoned me in the morning, didn’t you?
W: (l)Yes, it was late in the morning when I phoned.
M: Oh, (2)I was out shopping. Why did you phone me?
W: I wanted to ask if you’d like to come to dinner on Sunday.
M: Oh, what a pity! (3)I wish I had come but—actually, I went on a river trip practically the whole day Sunday.
W: How was the trip?
M: Very worthwhile. By the way, how did the dinner party go?
W: Well, we had a wonderful time.. , er... (1)I thought you might have enjoyed it too if you had come. Tom Welsh and his wife were with us. You’ve met them before, haven’t you?
M: Tom Welsh, yes, I rather liked him.
W: And we had a lovely dinner with green cabbage, cucumber soup and fresh salad.
M: Very nice.
W: And they asked about you.
M: And how’re they getting on?
W: Oh, very well. They enjoyed the party very much.
M: All, good.

选项 A、He went on a trip.
B、He went out shopping and missed the phone.
C、He went to visit Tom and his wife.
D、Both A and B

答案B

解析 细节题。对话开始讨论的是Bob上周六不在家,没有接到Carolyn的电话,而Carolyn打电话的原因是想邀请Bob周日来一起吃饭。由此可知,Bob没能去赴这次晚宴的直接原因就是因外出购物而没能接到邀请电话,尽管客观上他接到邀请也未必能前去,但是这是我们的猜测,根据对话本身,我们只能选择B项而不能选D。
