问题 What topic are the man and woman discussing? [br]  
M: I really appreciate your filling me in on yesterday’s lecture.
W: No problem. I thought you might want to go over it together. And, anyway, it helps me review. Hope you’re feeling better now.
M: I am. Thanks. So, you said she talked about squid? Sounds a little strange.
W: Well, factually, it was about the evolution of sea life—a continuation from last week. The octopus and the squid descended from earlier creatures with shells. They survived by shedding their shells—somewhere between 200 and 500 million years ago.
M: That’s a pretty long span of time. Some squid are really huge. Can you imagine something that big if it still had a shell?
W: Actually, it’s because they lost their shells that they could evolve to a bigger size.
M: Make sense. I’ve read about fishermen who caught squid that weighed over a ton. Did she talk about how that happened?
W: Not really. But she did mention some unusual cases. In 1933 they caught a squid in New Zealand... let’s see here... it was twenty-two yards long.
M: Remind me of all those stories of sea monsters.
W: Dr. Simpson thinks there are probably even larger ones that haven’t been found because squid are intelligent and fast—so they can easily get away from humans. Maybe some of those monster stories are true.

选项 A、He doesn’t understand the lecture.
B、He wants to borrow her notes next week.
C、He needs help with a makeup exam.
D、He was sick and unable to attend the class.

答案 D

解析 细节判断题。本题考查的内容和上一题在对话中的顺序有些颠倒,答案出现在一开始相互客套的部分。她问候男士:“希望你现在感觉好点了。”这句话是我们判断此题的关键。根据学习英语语言的知识,再加上日常的生活经验,我们应该能想到选项应该是D项,否则女士说的话就不合时宜了。
