W: I haven’t seen Mike for years. How is he getting along?
M:I came across him in the street only yesterday and he told me that he was having trouble with his new business.
W: He has set up another business? I knew nothing about it.
M: He managed a shop last year selling sport clothes but it soon went bankrupt. So he changed his mind.
W: What is he doing now?
M: He is managing a bar. And this is also in a pretty bad stale.
W: Sorry to hear that, but that should be what he’s good at.
M: Yes. But he was fined and threatened to close the bar.
W: What went wrong?
M: He’s only licensed to sell beer, but he sold hard drinks.
W: He should have minded his steps. But that shouldn’t be the reason for...
M: Well... He has had several other setbacks, too.
W: Misfortunes never come alone. What setbacks?
M: The people around him did not support him. Some even tried to play down him.
W: They are jealous, aren’t they?
M: Worse than that. Some people even tried to encourage him against his wife, because she wants him to give up the business.
W: I can’t believe that.
M: And Mike was in a ruined mood.
W: Let’s go and have a good talk with Mike’s wife. We need to persuade her to support him.
M: You’ve taken the words put of my mouth.
选项
A、Some people didn’t support him.
B、Some people are jealous of him.
C、His wife wanted him to give up his business.
D、He has no confidence to run his business any more.
答案
D
解析
[听力原文]
Which is NOT among the setbacks Mike meet?
[听前预测] 由选项中的didn’t support,jealous,give up,no confidence等词可以推测,本题可能与放弃做某事的原因有关。
[答案详解] 综合推断题[考频:1]。本题为排除题。A)、B)、C)选项所提及的人们不支持他,嫉妒他,他妻子也不支持他,这些都可以在文中找到答案,而D)选项“他没有信心再经营下去”在对话中没有提到。故选项D)为正确答案。
