M: Hi, Mandy. How’s everything going?
W: Not too good, I suppose.
M: What happened?
W: Well, you know I moved out from Mrs. Henzer’s nine months ago. And all along I forgot to inform the registration office to get my address changed. Guess what?  The library sent three reminder notices on the fines incurred on the overdue books and Mrs. Henzer kept the letters without returning them to the senders.
M: How did you find out?
W: Well, I went to the registration to get my transcript but they said there are some outstanding fines that I have to settle before they can release it.
M: Then just pay the fine and you. can get your transcript. What’s the big problem?
W: Yeah, that’s exactly what I thought but the fine came to $150 and that was a shock to me. I didn’t expect it to come to that much.
M: Oh. That’s a bit of a bite! Did you keep the book for long? That’s the first time I’ve come across such a big fine on the library loan.
W: Guess what? I checked with the library and they told me three books are still outstanding. They’re from 8 months ago. I thought I’d returned them.
M: Are you sure you returned the books yourself or did you get someone to do it?
W: Well, hard to recall now since it was so long ago. At that time I was holding two jobs and had to juggle with school. I really thought I had returned them.
M: Tell you what. Why don’t you go back in Mrs. Henzer and see if the books are still there? Otherwise, you’ll have to pay for the lost books and I’m sure they will cost more than $150.
W: I guess that’s the only choice I’m left with right now.

选项 A、Pay for the lost books.
B、Reconfirm with the library that the books were returned.
C、Check to see if the books are still at her home.
D、Check to see if the books are at Henzer’s place.

答案 D

解析 What will the woman do next to settle the problem?
选项均以动词原形开头,故本题很可能考查行为活动。选项C和D的意思相矛盾,根据命题规律,这类选项中往往有一个是答案.再根据对话中男士提到的Why don’t…books are still there?和女士对此的回答.I guess that’s the only choice I’m left with right now可知,女士打算接受男士的建议,到Mrs. Henzer家看看书是否在那儿,故答案为D。
