答案解析

17.
M: This is a one-way street. Didn't you see the sign?
W: Sorry. I didn't.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
正确答案：C
解析：本题可通过两种方法来解答。一种是正面解答法：通过关键词one-way street（单行道）与sign（标志），可知女士违反了交通规则。另一种是排除法：通过浏览选项可直接排除D，因为C与D之间存在着包孕关系（即若D成立，则C肯定成立）；对话中并没有提及速度，故A与B均不正确。

18.
W: I ought to call Joan, and tell her about the reception this evening.
M: Why bother? You will see her at lunch.
Q: What does the man mean?
正确答案：A
解析：不赞同题，答案选项中往往有与第一个说话者的关键词相对立的词。本题使用反问句Why brother？来表示不赞同，关键词是call Joan。同时，要注意这道题中的“语音相似陷阱”；B项和D项中的brother，都是由第二个说话者中的brother衍生而来的干扰因素。看穿其中戏法的眼睛雪亮的读者，是不会上这种当的。故选A。
