W: Oh, Peter, there you are. You’ve been ages. What kept you so long?
M: I’m sorry I’m so late, Sally. Have you been waiting long?
W: Oh, half an hour. But it doesn’t matter. I’ve had a coffee and I’ve been reading this guidebook for tourists. Sit down. What would you like to drink?
M: [6]I’d love a really chilled mineral water or something. Will you have another coffee?
W: [6]Yes, I will. Ah, here’s the waitress. Let’s order. Do you want anything to eat, or shall we just have a drink?
M: Well, I’m hungry, and we’ve got a lot of sightseeing to do, so let’s just have a snack and a drink.
W: Sounds good to me!
M: Well, let’s decide what we’ll see today. I guess the best place to start is the Cathedral, and then the Castle. What are the opening times for those two?
W: Well, according to this guidebook, the Cathedral is open morning and afternoon. The Castle is just open from one to five, so we can’t go there until after lunch. [7]I really want to spend some time in the Art Gallery, because they’ve got this wonderful painting by Rembrandt that I’ve always wanted to see.
M: What else should we see?
W: Well, the guidebook says the Botanical Gardens are worth spending some time in and they’re open all day, from eight to six, so we can go there any time. [8]I’d like to go to the Markets near the river too, but... oh... no, wait, that’s only in the morning, too.
M: As well as today and tomorrow, we can see some other places on Monday, you know. But I don’t think the Markets will be open then; [8]they only open on Thursday, so we’ve missed them for this week. [9]Maybe we should go to the Cathedral today because it’s Sunday tomorrow, and even though it’s open every day it might be more difficult to get in tomorrow because of the church services.
W: That’s true, but the Art Gallery isn’t open on Sundays at all, so we’ll have to go there today. The Castle’s open every day except Mondays, so we’re OK there, and the Gardens of course only close at night.
M: Are all these places free or do we have to pay to go in? What does the guidebook say?
W: [10]I think there’s a charge for all of them except the Botanical Gardens. Oh, and the Markets, of course you don’t pay to go in.
M: OK, well it looks like our plan is this: we’ll go to see the painting you like first, the Rembrandt, then have lunch and go on to the Castle after that, and then the Cathedral.
W: OK, well, that’ll be more than enough for today. Then, tomorrow, let’s go to the Botanical Gardens and have a picnic.
6.Where does the conversation most probably take place?
7.Why does the woman want to go to the Art Gallery?
8.When are the Markets open?
9.Why should they go to the Cathedral today?
10.Which of the following is free of charge?

选项 A、Because it will rain tomorrow.
B、Because it will not be free tomorrow.
C、Because it might be harder to enter tomorrow.
D、Because it’ll be closed during the church services.

答案 C

解析 ①选项都是because引导的表示原因的从句,由此可以推断题目与原因有关。②男士建议今天去大教堂。因为明天是星期天,由于教堂的礼拜活动,他们会很难进去,因此本题选C。harder to enter是录音中more difficult to get in的同义替换。③A“因为明天会下雨”、B“因为教堂明天不免费开放”都未在对话中提到。D“因为它会在礼拜期间关闭”利用church services作干扰,对话中只提及到教堂在礼拜期间会更难进入,并未说不开放。
