M: Can I speak to you for a few minutes, I have something to tell you, Mrs. Sherwin?
W: I am willing to, but now I can’t talk to you, Jerry. You see that I’m very busy at the moment. Can’t it wait until tomorrow? Then I will be free.
M: Uh, well, it’s rather urgent. And it won’t take long.
W: Oh, all right, then. What is it?
M: It’s a personal matter. Uh, you see, my wife is ill and has to go into a hospital.
W: Sorry to hear that. But why do you want to talk to me about it?
M: Because we have a baby and there’s nobody to look after her while she’s in the hospital.
W: Who? Your wife?
M: No, no. It is not my wife. My wife is not a little baby. It’s my little daughter.
W: Oh, I see. But I still don’t understand what all this has to do with me.
M: But that’s what I’m trying to explain. I’d like to stay at home for a few days.
W: But why?
M: To look after my daughter, of course.
W: I thought you said she was going to a hospital. They’ll look after her there, won’t they?
M: No, no, no, no! It’s my wife who’s going to a hospital! Not my daughter.
W: Really? I thought you said it was your daughter. You were not explaining this very well.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What happened in the conversation?
24. What was Sherwin’s state?
25. What caused Sherwin to misunderstand Jerry?
选项
A、It was too noisy.
B、Jerry didn’t explain very clearly.
C、The phone didn’t work well.
D、Sherwin was a little bit deaf.
答案
B
解析
首先来看看Jerry的原话:because we have a baby and there’s nobody to look after her while she’s in hospital,这里有两个人称代词her及she,本来是要分别指代不同的人,但是用在一起就分不清是wife还是daughter,所以最后导致了Sherwin没有理解Jerry所说的话,由此可知,是Jerry没说清楚导致了误解,故答案为[B]。
