M: Excuse me, could you please tell me how to get to the tennis courts?
W: They are right next to the Sports Complex.
M: I am new to the university and I don’t know where the Sports Complex is, either.
W: Well, it’s about a five-minute walk.
M: Oh.
W: Head down this main road for two blocks. Turn right at the clock tower and you will be on Bute Avenue. Walk on Bute for a couple of blocks, maybe 3 blocks.
M: You already have me walking about 5 blocks. Are you sure it is only a five-minute walk?
W: Maybe, it is longer—actually, it could be more, like ten minutes. I am not sure.
M: Do you know if there is a bus stop there?
W: Yes, the bus stop is in front of the pool, but bus service is quite slow during the day.
M: Are the tennis courts in good condition?
W: Yes, this university is very lucky to have such sports facilities.
M: That’s what I’ve heard. Did a rich person donate some money?
W: Yes, about 5 or 6 years ago, the rumor is that a famous hockey player left millions of dollars to build a new sports complex. It was an anonymous donation actually. I’m sorry to say, I almost never used it after my first year. Besides studying I took up cards—I love playing bridge.
M: Well, I hope to get in good shape here. I’m meeting a friend at the tennis courts in fifteen minutes, so I’d better be going.
W: Yes, you should. Now that I think about it, it may be close to twenty minutes’ walk to get there. 12. What can be inferred about the woman?
13. How did the university probably obtain the new sports facilities?
14. What is the woman’s favorite game?
15. What is the man trying to do?
选项 A、She knows nothing about the tennis courts.
B、She does not have a good sense of distance.
C、She is also a stranger to the university.
D、She can serve as a great tourist guide.
答案 B
解析 女士最初指路时说只要5分钟，然后又说10分钟，最后说恐怕要20分钟才能到男士要去的目的地，所以很没有距离观念，即B。根据她所提供的其他信息可以排除A和C。D实在是太讽刺了，故排除。本题虽然跨度较大，但是由于时间数据很容易捕捉并对比，不难总结出女士的距离观念差。
