M: Come in!
W: Hi, John!(12)I just wondered if you wanted to go out for a coffee.
M: Oh, hi, Lucy.(13)I was just writing a letter.
W: Writing a letter! Is your phone out of order?
M: No. Well,(13)not exactly a letter. Pete’s applied for a job in an elementary school, and they’ve asked me for a character reference.
W: Oh, dear, you’re not going to tell them the truth, are you?
M: What do you mean?
W: Well, he’s a big-headed show-off who never does a day’s work.
M:(14)Oh, come on, he is not that bad, I mean, kids love him. He’s always entertaining his little brother’s friends with his magic tricks.
W: Oh yes, he’s great with children, but he’s a big kid himself, isn’t he?
M:(15)Yes, I suppose he is a bit immature.
W:(15)And I hope they don’t expect him to work before three o’clock in the afternoon. You know what he’s like, he needs a bomb under him to get him up in the morning.
M: Mm. .. that’s true.(15)But he’s good in a crisis. Remember that time he saved a boy who fell in the hole.
W: Yes, I almost forgot. Well, now shall we go and get some coffee?
M: All right.

选项 A、He would turn down Pete’s request.
B、He thought the woman was too hard on Pete.
C、He could see something good even in a very bad person.
D、He liked Pete very much and would write him a very good reference.

答案 B

解析 本题问的是我们能了解到关于男士的什么信息。男士在女士评述完Pete之后说其实Pete的表现没有那么糟糕。由此可见,男士觉得女士对Pete的评价太苛刻了。
