Why can’t the man tell the woman what the present is?
W: I don’t see why you drive me here, Robert.
M: Oh, I may need some help from you.
W: I’m just curious why you need my help to pick up a birthday present for Ava. Must be a big gift?
M: Yeah, pretty big.
W: Well, what is it?
M: Sarah, [8C]I shouldn’t tell you yet. It’s a surprise. Well, unless you promise to do me a little favor.
W: What kind of favor?
M: [8C]Keep the present at your apartment until the party.
W: What’s the matter? Why can’t you keep it at your apartment?
M: I don’t think I could hide it from Ava.
W: Why? What in the world is it, Robert?
M: Here we are. Sarah, can’t you do me this little favor? It’s only for a couple of days, after all. I promise it won’t cause you any trouble or cost you any money.
W: Robert, why do we slop here anyway? There are no department stores on this block. Wait a minute…It’s that pet store over there, isn’t it? You’re going to buy a tortoise or a gorilla or something for Ava’s birthday, and you want me to keep it, right?
M: It’s not a gorilla, Sarah. It’s just a little dog.
W: Sorry, I can’t keep pets at my apartment. And I hate dogs.
M: Well, it’s not your pet. And you’ll love this dog. He’s a sweet little puppy. Only eleven weeks old. How can I keep him at our place?
W: All right, all right, I’ll do it. I’ll put up with it. Just stop telling me again that it’s a "sweet little puppy".
And you provide the dog food, all right?
M: All right.
选项
A、Because the woman may think the present’s too cheap.
B、Because Ava doesn’t want him to tell anyone.
C、Because he wants to keep it unknown until the party.
D、Because he wants to give the woman a surprise.
答案
C
解析
推断题。对话开头,女士多次问男士要买的礼物是什么,男士都没有告诉女士,并说如果女士答应帮他保管礼物到聚会那天,才能告诉她礼物到底是什么(Keep the present…until the party),故答案为[C]。
