问题 What is the conversation mainly about? [br]  
W: Gosh! Fred, another cup of coffee? That’s your third since lunch.
M: Yeah. Well, (8)I stayed up all night cramming for my history exam. I couldn’t keep my eyes open in my last class. I’m having this coffee so I can stay awake this afternoon.
W: (7)Don’t you know that drinking too much coffee is harmful? It may cause heart disease.
M: Nah. (9)Most of the research about the link between coffee and heart disease is inconclusive.
W: (10)But coffee has caffeine which is addictive.
M: You can’t become addicted to caffeine like other drugs.
W: Yes, you can. Don’t you know that people who are deprived of caffeine suffer withdraw symptoms, especially headaches?
M: One cure for headaches, oddly enough, is caffeine. Besides, coffee helps me work faster.
W: But faster is not necessarily better. You may finish your exam in a shorter period of time but you won’t have fewer errors.
M: You know, that soda you are drinking has caffeine in it too.
W: But 12 ounces of soda have only half the caffeine of a 5 ounce cup of coffee. And a cup of tea has less than that.
M: But I like the taste of coffee.
W: (10)You could drink decaf. Decaffeinated coffee doesn’t have as much flavor or body as regular coffee. Besides, I also want something that will keep me alert in class.
选项 A、Decaffeinated coffee may help prevent heart disease.
B、Coffee does not necessarily cause heart disease.
C、Coffee has less caffeine than soda.
D、Regular and decaffeinated coffee contain the same amount of caffeine.
答案 B
解析 归纳题。对话中两人就咖啡的影响展开了讨论，女士为了说明自己的观点，提出了很多辅助的论据，但是男士并不认同。比如，男士认为大多数研究表明咖啡和心脏病之间的联系是不确定的。对话中的用词inconclusive。体现在选项中就是not necessarily。所以B项是正确选项。
