Why does Sara hate traveling?
In this section, you will hear a monologue. The monologue will be read twice. After the monologue, there will be a one-minute pause. During the pause, read the questions and the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre.
Never Again!
I hate traveling. It’s not that I’m unwilling. It’s just that I’ve got a problem. Three problems actually, and they’re celled Charlie, Ella and Jack. Ranging in age from eleven down to three, they’re irresistible when they’re asleep. But when they’re awake they’re relentless. Individually they’re hard-working: in twos they’ve a handful: all together, they’re a nightmare. More often than not, they’re disobedient and seem to have endless competitions to see who can behave in the most devilish way. On top of that, they all want my undivided attention at the same time.
Under these stressful circumstances, you may think that it would be foolish of me to even consider traveling alone with my children. Well, I know now that it wasn’t just foolish, but downright irresponsible.
I wanted to visit my parents. My husband couldn’t come, so I set off on the five-hour train journey with a bagful of toys, a pocketful of sweets and a headful of songs, stories and games.
But regardless of my careful preparations, the journey was hellish: it was one of the worst experiences of my life. The final straw was when I arrived, exhausted and tearless, at my parents’ house. Instead of being sympathetic, they took great delight in telling me how awful I had been as a child. Thank, Mum and Dad. That was really helpful!
选项
A、Because she is unwilling to travel.
B、Because she has three naughty children.
C、Because she has unhappy childhood.
D、Because her parents are seriously ill.
答案
B
解析
录音中Sara说她讨厌出行并非自己不愿意,而是因为她的三个孩子,根据她对三个孩子的描述“睡着时他们令人无法抗拒(irresistible),而醒着时却一刻也安静不下来的(relentless),……他们经常(不听话)(disobedient)……”,可知她的三个孩子很淘气,故答案选B。
