问题  
M: I am so relieved, I just finished the story I was working on for our creative writing course.
W: I haven’t quite finished mine yet. I had trouble getting past the beginning.
M: How come?
W: Well, I was really happy to be writing a detective story. But after the first few pages, I sort of froze up mentally. I just couldn’t write any more.
M: The same thing happened to me. I thought it meant I lack imagination.
W: Well, Professor Wilson said it’s pretty common for writers to get stuck like that.
M: You went to talk to her about it?
W: Actually, I went to ask for more time to finish the assignment. But instead she gave me some advice about how to keep from getting stalled writing like that. She said that the first thing I should do is just write anything that comes into my head even if it doesn’t make any sense, sort of warm up exercise.
M: That is interesting. When I got stuck, I shift to something else, you know, do some work for one of my other courses.
W: Well, her methods seem to have worked for me. I’ve written most of the story, and I should be able to hand it in on time. But first I need go to the jewelry store.
M: You are going shopping? Can’t you wait until you finish your story?
W: I am going there for my story. My detective solves a jewelry store robbery, so I want to take a look at how the jewelry cases are arranged, where the security cameras are located, that sort of thing.

选项 A、To go shopping.
B、To do research for her story.
C、To meet with her professor.
D、To take a break from her work.

答案 B

解析 综合推断题,女士说去珠宝店是为了自己的故事,她所描写的侦探破获了一桩珠宝抢劫案,她要去了解一下与此相关的事物,由此推断,她去珠宝店是为自己的故事做调查,故选B,考点 freeze up意为“冻住”,此处指的是头脑停止转动,与freeze相关的短语还有:freeze one’s blood使充满害怕、恐怖的感觉;freeze sb. out将某人逼走,如:Small shops are being frozen out by the big supermarkets.小商店都让大型超市给挤垮了
