W:(19)Tom, I suppose you must have heard about that great piece of concrete falling onto a car in that terrible accident in South street yesterday, haven’t you?
M: Yes. I saw it in the paper. From a 200-foot-high building, wasn’t it?
W: Oh, yes.(19)1 saw the car; it was totally damaged.
M: You usually park your car around there, don’t you, Brenda?
W: Yes, I left it in that very spot a couple of days ago, but yesterday it was parked up the road.
M: You are lucky then.
W:(20)Out of luck, you mean! I’d be very pleased if my old car were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then.
M: But you used to be so proud of your car, weren’t you?
W: It was years ago, but now there are all sorts of repairs to be done, and I just haven’t got enough spare cash to put it right.
M: You can always sell it, can’t you?
W: Few people are stupid enough to buy a car in that condition.
M:(21)The woman whose car was crushed yesterday was very annoyed about it. She will be given a new car by the builders, though.
W:(21)Yes, but her car was a specially built model that can’t be replaced, and there was hardly anything wrong with it.
M: Well, that’s life! When people actually want to get rid of their cars, this sort of thing seldom happens, does it?

解析 目的原因题。女士说自己的车没被砸碎是不幸,因为这样她拿不到保险公司的赔偿。由此可知,女士觉得自己不幸是因为她不能从保险公司拿到赔偿。
