问题  
M: I ran into our friend Mark yesterday on the street and he said he hadn’t heard from you for two months.
W: Yes, I know, but I have been too busy to phone him.
Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?
M: Mr. Brown asked me to tell you that he is sorry he can’t come to meet you in person. He is really too busy to make the trip.
W: That’s OK. I’m glad you’ve come in his place.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

选项 A、The man is late for the trip because he is busy.
B、The woman is glad to meet Mr. Brown in person.
C、The man is meeting the woman on behalf of Mr. Brown.
D、The woman feels sorry that Mr. Brown is unable to come.

答案 C

解析 本题关键在于听懂男士所用的间接引语中的“他(即Mr.Brown)不能亲自来接您”和女士所用的习惯表达“我很高兴您替他来”,两者结合即为C:男士替布朗先生来接该女士,C中的on behalf of Mr.Brown相当于对话中的in his place。A为原词的胡乱拼凑;女士说很高兴男士能替布朗先生来接她,所以B、D不正确。
