M:Hey, how was your trip?
W:Wonderful. I spent most of my time at the art museum. I especially liked the new wing. I was amazed to hear the guide explain all the problems they had building it.
M:Right. I just read an article that went on and on about the cost-ninety million total, I think.
W:Yeah, the guide mentioned that. You could see they spared no expense.
M:Hmm. It looked really unusual, at least from what I saw in the picture.
W: It is. The basic design is two triangles. In fact, there are triangles all over-the paving stones in the courtyard, the skylights, and even a lot of the sculptures. One sculpture is a mobile. It’s in the courtyard and it’s made of pieces of aluminum that move slowly in the air. It’s really impressive.
M:That was in the article too. It said the original was steel, and it weighed so much that it wasn’t safe to hang.
W: Right. They did it over in aluminum so it wouldn’t come crashing down on someone’s head.
M: You know, the article went into that in detail. There was even an interview with the sculptor.
W:I’d like to real that. Would you mind if I borrowed the magazine sometime?
M:No, I wouldn’t mind, if I haven’t thrown it out yet.
4. What did the woman think of the new wing of the museum?
5. How had the man learned about the museum?
6. According to the woman, what do the paving stones, skylights, and mobile have in common?
7. What was the problem with the original mobile?
选项
A、She was impressed by it.
B、It was a waste of money.
C、She was amazed it had opened so soon.
D、She didn’t like it as much as the other wings.
答案
A
解析
“be amazed at”意思是“对……大为吃惊”;“impressive”意思是“给人深刻印象的”。W刘美术馆新侧厅的修建费用以及修建过程中的种种问题大感吃惊,并且对里面的种种设计留下了深刻的印象,因此正确答案应该是A。需要注意的是,“spare no expense”这个词组的意思是“不惜代价”,虽然修建费用昂贵,但谈话中并没有流露出认为这是一种浪费的意思,因此选项B是错误的。
