A South African businessman is refusing to leave Croatia until he finds a girl who he saw across a crowded bar. Keith Van Der Spuy has never even spoken to the girl but says she was the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. He has cancelled his flight home and taken out advertisements in local newspapers in the port town of Split. Mr. Van Der Spuy says he was having a drink in the bar when he saw the pretty girl smile at him across the bar. While he was trying to look at her closely she disappeared. But he’s convinced she was a local because he heard her calling to a female friend shortly before he lost sight of her. Van Der Spuy, who is also the head of the South African water-polo association, said he could not get her out of his mind and when he got to the airport, then he realized he could not board the plane. He has already extended his holiday for four months, and says he is prepared to stay in Split for as long as it takes. "I will not leave this place for years if I have to. When I saw her and she looked at me I knew she was the one. There was pure chemistry between us. I can’t get her out of my head. I just want to meet her and see her long dark hair and beautiful smile again. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." "If she is married or is not interested I can accept it—but I have to know. I have to see her one more time, and I have even bought a diamond ring for her."
22. How long has the man decided to stay in Split?
23. Where was the man when he saw the pretty girl?
24. What do we know from the passage?
25. What will the man do if the woman is not interested in him?
选项
A、The man has fallen in love with the girl at first sight.
B、The man and the pretty woman were attracted to each other.
C、The woman was single.
D、The woman was married.
答案
A
解析
短文中多处表明,男士对酒吧中邂逅的女郎一见钟情。短文还引述男士的话说:“我看着她而她望着我时,我知道就是她了。我们之间就是有缘。”英语chemistry在口语中常用来指异性之间的那种相互吸引。A正确。由于全文都在说该神秘的女郎至今尚未露面,关于她的情况现在一无所知,B、C、D均谈到“她”如何如何,全无依据。
