问题 What topic are the man and woman discussing? [br]  
M: I really appreciate your filling me in on yesterday’s lecture.
W: No problem. I thought you might want to go over it together. And, anyway, it helps me review. Hope you’re feeling better now.
M: I am. Thanks. So, you said she talked about squid? Sounds a little strange.
W: Well, factually, it was about the evolution of sea life—a continuation from last week. The octopus and the squid descended from earlier creatures with shells. They survived by shedding their shells—somewhere between 200 and 500 million years ago.
M: That’s a pretty long span of time. Some squid are really huge. Can you imagine something that big if it still had a shell?
W: Actually, it’s because they lost their shells that they could evolve to a bigger size.
M: Make sense. I’ve read about fishermen who caught squid that weighed over a ton. Did she talk about how that happened?
W: Not really. But she did mention some unusual cases. In 1933 they caught a squid in New Zealand... let’s see here... it was twenty-two yards long.
M: Remind me of all those stories of sea monsters.
W: Dr. Simpson thinks there are probably even larger ones that haven’t been found because squid are intelligent and fast—so they can easily get away from humans. Maybe some of those monster stories are true.

选项 A、She always believes they do exist.
B、She has heard about them in New Zealand.
C、Stories about them may be based on giant squids.
D、The instructor mentioned them in the lecture.

答案 C

解析 观点态度题。对话中女士转述了老师课堂上讲述的不同寻常的案例,这使得男士想到了海里的怪物的故事。女士没有驳斥海怪的存在,而是猜测或许真的存在一些不为人所知的、超出人们想象之外被人们叫做“怪”物的大的海洋生物。结合四个选项,最佳答案应该是C项。
