问题  
W: Andy, what hobby would you take up if you had more time?
M: I think I’d take up two different hobbies—an indoor hobby and an outdoor hobby.
W: Really? Why?
M: [12]An outdoor hobby, like motor-racing, for a bit of fresh air and excitement; and an indoor hobby, like radio-making for example, for quiet concentration. What about you?
W: [13]I like indoor hobbies best As you know, I like making decorations, toys and so on, but I’m also quite fond of knitting and I’ve made quite a lot of sweaters and the like for the family.
M: Yes, I’ve seen some of the things you’ve made. They’re very fashionable. How long have you been doing it?
W: [14]I started years ago when I was still at school.
M: Did you spend all your free time on your hobbies?
W: Well no. As a working mother there are many other matters I’ve got to attend to, but I do spend quite a lot of time on my hobbies.
M: What about money? Do your hobbies cost you a lot of money?
W: No, once you’ve bought the basic tools most hobbies are comparatively cheap.
M: By the way, how did you learn to do all these handy things? Did you ever attend a special course?
W: I did once, [15]but most of it I’ve picked up from books. There are dozens of books on hobbies in the bookshops.  
M: Ah well. Perhaps I should take up my coin collection again.  
W: Yes, why not? You might even become an authority on old coins, Andy!
12.What would the man take up an outdoor hobby for?
13.What kind of hobbies does the woman like best?
14.What do we know about the woman’s learning knitting?
15.How did the woman learn to do most of the handy things in her hobbies?

选项 A、She learned it when she was a small child.
B、She started it when she was a student.
C、She didn’t learn it until she left school.
D、She started it after she was married.

答案 B

解析 男士说见过女士织的部分编织品,很时尚。并问女士做编织品有多久了,女士回答说她是在几年前还在上学的时候开始织的。B的when she was a student正好是对话中when I was still at school的同义替换,故选B。浏览选项可知,问题是问开始学做一件事情的时间或做一件事情的持续时间,听到How long have…这个问句时应加强注意力。
