问题  
W: Charles, among other things, you’re regarded as one of America’s great masters of the blues, a musical idiom—that’s essentially about loss, particularly the loss of romantic love. Why does love die?
M: People often get into love affairs because they have unrealistic expectations about somebody. Then when the person doesn’t turn out to be who they thought he or she was, they start thinking maybe I can change him or her. That kind of thinking is a mistake. Because when the dust settles, people are going to be pretty much what they are. It’s a rare thing for anybody to be able to change who they really are. This creates a lot of problems.
W: At 62, you continue to spend a large percentage of your life touring. What appeals to you about life on the road?
M: Music. I don’t especially love life on the road, but I figure if you are lucky enough to be able to do what you truly love doing, you’ve got the ultimate in life.
W: What’s the most widely-held misconception about the life of a famous musician?
M: People think it’s all glamour. Actually we have the same troubles they do. Playing music doesn’t mean life treats you any better.
W: How do you feel about being recognized everywhere you go?
M: You’d think I’d be used to it by now. But I still find it fascinating. You go to a little town in Japan, where nobody speaks English, yet they know you on sight and know all your music. I’m still amazed by the love people express for me and my music.
5.What does the man say about most people when they get into love affairs?
6. What does the man say about himself as a singer on the road most of his life?
7.What do most people think of the life of a famous musician?
8.How does the man feel whenever he is recognized by his fans?

选项 A、They try to adapt to their changing roles.
B、They form a more realistic picture of life.
C、They may not be prepared for a lifelong relationship.
D、They have unrealistic expectations about the other half.

答案 D

解析 在对话的开头,女士说男士是美国布鲁斯音乐领域的伟大音乐家之一,而布鲁斯这种音乐风格主要是关于浪漫爱情的逝去的,于是问男士为什么爱情会逝去。男士回答说人们经常会因为对某人有着不现实的期望而陷入爱情。也就是说,大多数人陷入爱情时的表现就是会对另一半有着不现实的期望,故选项D为正确答案。其他三项对话中均未提及,都可排除。
