原文
I flew to San Francisco to take care of some business with Mr. Jordan. But as soon as I arrived, I got sick and couldn't meet with him. I had to call our appointment off, Then, when I felt better I thought about visiting him at his home, but he lived too far away. I tried to telephone him during office hours, but he was busy. The receptionist said that Mr. Jordan would call me back, but he didn't. I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it'wou1d take more time and effort than I wanted to spend. A few days later, I saw a man on the street who looked like Mr. Jordan, and I called out to him. It was someone else. When I returned to my hotel that day, I found a message, which said that Mr. Jordan had gone out of town on some sudden unexpected business, I was sorry I had missed seeing him , but I really enjoyed my sightseeing in San Francisco.
Question
15 Why couldn't the speaker meet Mr. Jordan when he got to San Francisco?
16 Why did the speaker give up making another appointment?
17 What do we learn from the story?
答案與分析
15 C 這句的考點(diǎn)是第二句話“But as soon as I arrived, I got sick and couldn't meet with him.”。 這里but是一個(gè)轉(zhuǎn)折提示詞，as soon as是一個(gè)時(shí)間提示詞。連續(xù)兩個(gè)很重要的提示詞，提示了考點(diǎn)的出現(xiàn)。Sick這個(gè)詞在C選項(xiàng)中又是原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，當(dāng)然就是正確選項(xiàng)。
16 D 這句的考點(diǎn)在I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it'wou1d take more time and effort than I wanted to spend。 這里because 是一個(gè)明顯的原因項(xiàng)提示詞，應(yīng)該不難聽出。但問題是選項(xiàng)對應(yīng)有點(diǎn)困難，我們必須理解這個(gè)句子。他說因?yàn)槲也幌朐倩ǜ嗟臅r(shí)間和努力了。言下之意也就是嫌太麻煩了，和D選項(xiàng)是一個(gè)近義復(fù)現(xiàn)。
17 C 這是一個(gè)考主題的問題，考點(diǎn)不一般不再開頭就在結(jié)尾。這里是在結(jié)尾I was sorry I had missed seeing him , but I really enjoyed my sightseeing in San Francisco. 沒有見到他很遺憾，但在San Francisco 的觀光還是很開心的。對應(yīng)了C選項(xiàng)。這句原文有一個(gè)but小詞，選項(xiàng)中也只有C項(xiàng)有一個(gè)but小詞，所以對應(yīng)還是非常完美的。
