M: I had prepared dinner for eight people before Mary called and said that she and her husband could not make it.
W: That’s all right. I’m just going to tell you I have invited Tom and his girlfriend.
Q: What will be the situation at dinner?
W: Prof. Jackson, we were wondering if we could sit in your English class?
M: I wish I could say "Yes". But if I accepted you two, I wouldn’t know how to say "No" to a lot of others who have made the same request.
Q: What does the professor mean?

选项 A、He rejected their request.
B、He accepted their request.
C、He agreed to consider their request.
D、He asked them to come with the others.

答案 A

解析 男士说但愿我能说“Yes”,但是如果这么做了,就无法拒绝其他的学生了,说明男士事实上委婉地拒绝了女士的请求。所以A正确。根据选项可以预测题目是问男士对于女士请求的回应。虚拟语气题。回答用虚拟:“I wish…but...”,答案选反义。
