M: I suppose you must have heard about that great piece of concrete falling onto a car in that terrible accident on South Street yesterday (19), didn’t you, Jane?
W: Yes, I saw it in the paper. From a 200-foot high building, wasn’t it? I gather the driver had just got out or he’d have been killed, wouldn’t he?
M: Oh, yes. I saw the car; it was totally damaged.
W: You usually park your car around there, don’t you, Bill?
M: Yes, I left it in that very spot a couple of days ago, but yesterday it was parked up the road.
W: You were lucky then, weren’t you, Bill?
M: I’d be very pleased if my old car were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then, couldn’t I? (20)(21)
W: But you used to be so proud of your car, didn’t you?
M: I used to be 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 (21).
W: You can always sell it, can’t you?
M: Few people are stupid enough to buy a car in that state, are they?
W: The man whose car was crashed yesterday was very annoyed about it(22). He’ll be given a new car by the builders, though.
M: Yes, but his car was a specially-built model that can’t be replaced, and there was hardly anything wrong with it, was there?
W: Well, that’s life! When people actually want to get rid of their cars, this sort of thing seldom happens, does it?

选项 A、The man had his old car insured.
B、The man was sad that his car was not smashed.
C、The man was confident that his car was safe.
D、The man never reads newspaper.

答案 A

解析 从题目选项可以得知,该题考查女士、男士的行为动作。该题属于综合推理题,多处出现了相关信息,从“I’d be very pleased if my old car were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then(如果我的车被砸了,我会很高兴的,因为我就可以向保险公司索赔)”得知,男士认为自己的车已经很旧了,而且多处需要修理,需要花大量的钱,被砸了可以得到新车,故可推测出正确答案。
