W: Welcome to our city, Mr. Lorden. But, of course, you have been here before, haven’t you?
M: Yes, I have, what a good memory you have! I was here for the Arts Festival last year.
W: And what will you be doing on this visit?
M: Oh, [12]I came here primarily for a holiday and to see some friends. But I will also be giving some private cello lessons as well.  
W: I believe that your cello is rather special. Is that true?  
M: Oh, yes. [13]It was made for my uncle by a very expert Italian cello maker called Mario. When I began cello lessons at the age of eight, he said that when I grew big enough to handle a full-sized cello, he would give it to me,  
W: So when a child begins to play the cello, he or she starts on a smaller instrument?  
M: Of course, or he would be very uncomfortable. [14]Many children begin with a half-sized cello, but as I was big for my age, I began with a two-thirds-sized cello.  
W: Are you going to other places on this trip and will you take your cello with you?  
M: Yes, very definitely,  
W: But, isn’t it difficult taking a cello around with you?
M: Not really. [15]I just reserve two seats when I’m traveling anywhere, one for me and one for my cello. It’s such a precious instrument to me that it hardly ever leaves my side.
12.What is the main purpose of the man’s visit this year?
13.What do we learn about the man’s cello?
14.What is the size of the man’s cello when he began to learn?
15.How does the man do with his cello when he’s traveling?

选项 A、It was specially made for him by his uncle.
B、He got it from his uncle.
C、He has been using it since the age of eight.
D、A cello maker gave it to him as a present.

答案 B

解析 男士说,这把大提琴是一位意大利大提琴工匠给他叔叔做的。在男士8岁开始学大提琴的时候。叔叔就告诉他,等到他能用正常大小的大提琴时,就把这把大提琴送给他,故选B。
①浏览选项的内容可知it指的是选项中频频出现的cello,A、B、D都是有关“他”(很可能是对话中的男士)是如何得到cello;C是讲“他”使用这把cello有多长时间了。
②关键是要听清男士、他叔叔以及意大利工匠与cello之间的关系;听到了it was made for my uncle by…这句话就容易排除A、D;C表述的时间有误,也排除。
