W: Hey, Henry, how’s everything going, and what’s with the flowers?
M: They’re for my wife.
W: Oh, a wedding anniversary or something?
M: To tell the truth, it couldn’t be worse. You see, I have to pick my wife up from the airport this evening, but while she was gone, there were a few minor mishaps.
W: Oh really? What happened?
M: Well, I had some of the guys over Friday night to watch a basketball game on TV, but one of them got all excited, and started horsing around, waving his arms, and he accidentally knocked over my wife’s 250-year-old Chinese porcelain vase given to her by her grandmother, and broke it beyond repair.
W: Oh no! You’re in hot water now.
M: If it had only been that.
W: Oh, there’s more?
M: Yeah, you see, the water from the vase spilled all over the manuscript of a book my wife has been writing for the past two years. It blurred the ink over many of the pages.
W: Oh no!
M: And so one of the guys had the bright idea of drying the pages by the fire while we watched, uh, the rest of game, but a spark from the fire must have blown out and burned the manuscript to a crisp.
W: Ah, so I get it now. You’re buying the flowers for her as a part of some kind of peace offering, right?
M: No, not at all. They’re for my funeral.
12. What was Henry doing Friday night when his problems started?
13. How was the vase broken?
14. How did the manuscript of the book become totally ruined?
15. How will his wife feel when she got the whole story?
选项
A、Disappointed.
B、Furious.
C、Satisfied.
D、Unhelpful.
答案
B
解析
选项中的形容词表示的是四种情感。此题是推理题,妻子最后会怎么表现在对话中并未提及,但从丈夫谈话的口气中可以很明显感觉到事情的严重性,最后丈夫说道:“我死定了。”可以推测妻子知道后会非常愤怒,所以选B。
