A South African businessman is refusing to leave Croatia until he finds a girl who he saw across a crowded bar. Keith Van Der Spuy has never even spoken to the girl but says she was the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. He has cancelled his flight home and taken out advertisements in local newspapers in the port town of Split. Mr. Van Der Spuy says he was having a drink in the bar when he saw the pretty girl smile at him across the bar. While he was trying to look at her closely she disappeared. But he’s convinced she was a local because he heard her calling to a female friend shortly before he lost sight of her. Van Der Spuy, who is also the head of the South African water-polo association, said he could not get her out of his mind and when he got to the airport, then he realized he could not board the plane. He has already extended his holiday for four months, and says he is prepared to stay in Split for as long as it takes. "I will not leave this place for years if I have to. When I saw her and she looked at me I knew she was the one. There was pure chemistry between us. I can’t get her out of my head. I just want to meet her and see her long dark hair and beautiful smile again. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." "If she is married or is not interested I can accept it—but I have to know. I have to see her one more time, and I have even bought a diamond ring for her."
22. How long has the man decided to stay in Split?
23. Where was the man when he saw the pretty girl?
24. What do we know from the passage?
25. What will the man do if the woman is not interested in him?
选项
A、For four months.
B、For six months.
C、Until he finds the girl.
D、Until the girl accepts the ring.
答案
C
解析
短文开头就说:“一位南非商人要在找到一位他在一个拥挤的酒吧里见过一面的女郎之后,才会同意离开克罗地亚。”本句时态的变化以及until的用法都值得注意,否则可能不易理解。C正确。显然本题问(一段)时间。这种细节题,“听到什么选什么”。
