　　女：昨天我很生气。我的生物课老师都不给我机会让我解释我没能参加实地考察的原因，他就是不想让我通过。

　　男：这太不公平了，我对此感同身受。

　　问：这个男人的话暗示着什么?

　　答：从虚拟句if I were you 加上前面的不公平，应该知道这个男的能理解这个女人的感受。因此A正确。

　　16.

　　D) She has to invite David to the party.

　　男：我不懂为什么大卫总是这么说话，如果他参加你的圣诞派对，我就不去了。

　　女：对你的感受我很抱歉，不过我妈坚持要他来。

　　问：这个女人的话是什么意思?

　　答：从对话中来看，女人并没有要求大卫如何表现的意思，也没有提及中途回见男人的想法，因此可以排除A和 B两项。C项是疑问项，从表面上看是这样，但是男人的话只是气话，并没有真的确定不来，而且女人的回答中只是对他的感受表示抱歉，并没有对他不会来表示歉意的意思。因此可以排除C项，可知正确答案为D。

　　M: Prof. Kennedy has been very busy this semester. As far as I know, he works until midnight every day.

　　W: I wouldnt have troubled him so much if I had known he was so busy.

　　Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

　　B) The woman regrets having taken up much of the professors time.

　　C) The woman knows the professor has been busy.

　　D) The woman knows the professor has run into trouble.

　　【预测】 四个选项都是在描述woman，所以女士的话很关键。注意听辨。

　　【解析】 男士说教授很忙，女士没有直接回答，而是说早知道就不麻烦他了，言下之意，就是不应该去打扰他，所以选B。其他选项都不符。
