M: I suppose you must have heard about that great piece of concrete falling onto a car in that terrible accident on South Street yesterday (19), didn’t you, Jane?
W: Yes, I saw it in the paper. From a 200-foot high building, wasn’t it? I gather the driver had just got out or he’d have been killed, wouldn’t he?
M: Oh, yes. I saw the car; it was totally damaged.
W: You usually park your car around there, don’t you, Bill?
M: Yes, I left it in that very spot a couple of days ago, but yesterday it was parked up the road.
W: You were lucky then, weren’t you, Bill?
M: I’d be very pleased if my old car were smashed to bits. I could claim from the insurance company then, couldn’t I? (20)(21)
W: But you used to be so proud of your car, didn’t you?
M: I used to be years ago, but now there are all sorts of repairs to be done, and I just haven’t got enough spare cash to put it right (21).
W: You can always sell it, can’t you?
M: Few people are stupid enough to buy a car in that state, are they?
W: The man whose car was crashed yesterday was very annoyed about it(22). He’ll be given a new car by the builders, though.
M: Yes, but his car was a specially-built model that can’t be replaced, and there was hardly anything wrong with it, was there?
W: Well, that’s life! When people actually want to get rid of their cars, this sort of thing seldom happens, does it?

选项 A、He didn’t see the incident.
B、He didn’t have his car repaired.
C、He was unable to repair his car.
D、He could not claim anything from the insurance company.

答案 D

解析 从题目选项中可以得知,该题考查发生在男士身上的事情。该题也是一道综合推理题,从“I used to be years ago, but now there are all sorts of repairs to be done, and I just haven’t got enough spare cash to put it right (我过去是以我的车自豪,但是现在车处处要修理,我没有足够的闲钱将它们都修理好)”以及上面提到的“车已买了保险”可以得知,男士认为自己的车没被砸坏而很背,故可推测出正确答案。
