M: And now here is our guest Jane Thomas to tell us about the Montreal’s famous yearly island bicycle tour which is coming up in June. Good morning, Jane. What is the bike tour all about?
W: Well, it’s an event that’s open to anybody who’d like to ride a bicycle through the streets in Montreal. The(3)tour covers a standard distance of 65 kilometers. But the route’s quite different every year. Even people who’ve already done it might enjoy doing it again.
M: How long does it take to go the whole distance?
W: It varies. Cyclists are free to go as fast or as slow and do as much or as little of the course as they like.
M: Well, what’s the typical pace for a participant?
W: Between 12 and 30 kilometers per hour. Some cyclists stop along the way and don’t cross the finishing line until early evening. But the whole point is that there is no rush. It’s not a race.
M: I understand last year’s tour had 45 thousand cyclists and it was the largest mass cycling event in the world. How many do you expect this year?
W: The same as last year. And since we regularly have so many participants, can I take this opportunity to remind our listeners to sign up early? We filled up quickly last year and we had to refuse lots of applications.
M: Before we close, any other tips for our prospective cyclists?
W: Yes. Take water with you. It is available at the relay stations but it helps to have an additional supply. And pack a good lunch with plenty of fruit for energy. Candy and chocolate don’t do the trick.
1. What are the two speakers talking about?
2. What is different each year in the tour according to the woman?
3. What suggestion does the woman give to the participants?

选项 A、An annual cycling event.
B、Major Canadian bicycle races.
C、The contribution of cycling to health.
D、How to improve one’s speed in a bicycle race.

答案 A

解析 主旨题。对话开始男士(主持人)就说,今天我们请到Jane Thomas来讲讲六月即将开幕的著名的一年一度的岛上自行车比赛(the Montreal’s famous yearly island bicycle tour),由此可知对话双方主要是在谈论一年一度的自行车比赛,故答案为[A]。由对话开始男士的介绍及对话中重复出现的词语很容易得出对话谈论的主题。
