W: The other driver said that he stopped at the junction. When he pulled out there was nobody coming, so you must have been speeding.
M: Well, it’s not true. I’ve witnesses to prove it. He couldn’t have stopped. The lighting is very good here along this stretch.
W: Yes. He should have stopped. Why did you stop at the pedestrian crossing?
M: There were two old ladies on it I’m always a bit careful with old people because they’re likely to walk across the road without looking properly.
W: I shouldn’t worry, sir. We don’t think you were speeding—even without measuring the skid marks.
M: Er, was he, the other driver, drunk?
W: I don’t know yet He’s admitted that he’s had one or two drinks, but says it was only two half-pints. We’re going to give him a breathalyzer test to see whether he’s over the limit If he is, he’ll be asked to have a blood test.
M: Well, I haven’t touched a drop all night!
W: No. sir. It’s surprising how much a driver’s breath smells even if he’s only had one drink. Well, sir, I don’t think I need to detain you any longer. We shall want written statements from you, your wife and the young lady tomorrow.
M: Yes. What’ll happen to my car? It’s obvious that with that badly-damaged wheel I shan’t be able to drive it.
W: We ‘Il have to take some measurements of the skid marks and the positions of the cars. We’ll arrange to have it towed away when we’ve finished. If you ring the police station tomorrow, they’ll tell you what to do.
M: Thank you very much.
W: Oh, by the way, is the young lady staying with you?
M: No, she’s a friend of my wife. She’s staying at the Station Hotel. Her name is Becky Soften. She has a friend with her and she’ll need to be told about the accident, I suppose. I don’t know…
W: We’ll see to that. I expect you’ll want to go to the hospital to see how your wife is.
M: Yes, I must go there now. I told my wife to wait there until I could collect her in a taxi I hope they don’t keep her in.
W: If you feel well enough, you can get a taxi just around corner.
M: Yes, I’m fine. Good night
W: Good night
Questions 6 to 10 are based on what you have just heard.
6. Why did Mr. Simpson stop at the pedestrian crossing?
7. What is the most probable cause of the accident?
8. What makes the police believe that Mr. Simpson didn’t drink alcohol before driving?
9. What will happen to Mr. Simpson’s car?
10. What will Mr. Simpson probably do after the conversation?
选项
A、Mr. Simpson’s speeding.
B、The two pedestrians at the junction.
C、The other driver’s drunk driving.
D、Mr. Simpson’s drunk driving.
答案
C
解析
此题应综合整个对话进行分析。对话中多处暗示另一司机是肇事者,例如,男士说有目击者可证明另一司机在路口没有停车;警察也提到,另一司机承认驾驶前喝过少量酒,并表示将对他进行相应测试。因此C项为正确选项。对话中警察说她甚至不用测量路面划痕就可以排除男士超速的可能,故A错误。B项虽在对话中有提及,但只是男士在人行横道处刹车的原因。警察也排除了男士酒后驾驶的可能,故D项错误。
