W: Hello, Steve?
M: Hi, Veronica. What’s going on?
W: Oh, my car’s having problems again, but I don’t have the time or the money to get it fixed.
M: Is it really bad?
W: It’s starting to overheat whenever I’m idling or in heavy traffic, and two days ago I had to pull off the expressway and wait until the engine cooled down.
M: Have you taken it into a shop?
W: Well, I went to two different places yesterday: one mechanic said he’d check the coolant level and look for fluid leaks: the other guy said he thought it was the thermostat. I didn’t leave the car with either of them, though, because I didn’t have a ride back.
M: What are you going to do?
W: I really don’t know. I’ll have to figure out something: the bus service is terrible around where I live. Anyway, could I ask you for a favour?
M: Of course, what is it?
W: You know, tomorrow’s Monday and we’re supposed to turn in our homework in English, but I’ve only gotten halfway through it — I’ve just been too busy. If I came over, would you help me finish it?
M: Sure, I’ll be here all evening. And actually I haven’t finished the homework either: I’ve just been putting it off, so it’s good you’re coming over — I need someone to motivate me.
W: Thank you so much, Steve. It’s so nice of you. See you later.
Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
13. How did the woman deal with her car after something was wrong with it?
14. Which of the following is true about the place where the woman lives?
15. Why is the man happy about the woman’s coming?

选项 A、The traffic is very heavy.
B、The bus service is bad.
C、The transportation is convenient.
D、Few taxis can be seen there.

答案 B

解析 A)、B)、D)都与交通状况不好有关,而C)却说的是交通设施很便利,与其他选项明显不同,为答案的可能性较小。由对话中女士提到的the bus service is terrible around where I live可知,女士居住的地方公共汽车服务较差,故答案为B)。
