　　译文与解析：

　　女：托尼的妈妈邀请我去她家吃完饭，你觉得我要提前告诉她我是素食主义者吗?

　　男：当然，我觉得她会很乐意知道知道这个消息的。想象一下要是她准备了火鸡大餐或者别的类似的东西你们俩是什么感受?

　　问：男人建议女人怎么做?

　　从回答中的of course 来看，他建议女人及早告诉托尼的妈妈，所以排除A和B;在C和D中二选一很容易发现C比D要更合适

　　16.男：看看报纸，都是抢劫自杀和谋杀。你还相信人性本善吗?

　　女：当然，但是好多关于和平，爱和慷慨的行为都不被报纸所重视。

　　问：他们在谈论什么?

　　从问答中可以看出，他们在谈论报纸上的内容，只有D最合题意。
