答案解析

17.
W: I can't believe Karen is late for such an important occasion as a job interview. I reminded her time and again yesterday.
M: You should have known her better by now-everything you tell her goes in one ear and out the other.
Q: What does the man imply?
正确答案：A
解析：女士说她提醒Karen多次，但她还是面试迟到了，男士说“everything you tell her goes in one ear and out the other 你跟她说的话她左耳朵进右耳朵出”，意即“听完了就忘，不往心里去”，故选A，而非D，更不可能是C；此外，should have known her better为虚拟语气，意为“本该更了解她了”，而非陈述语气的B。

18.
W: Hi, Joe. I wonder if you could do me a favor and tell the professor I've lost my voice so I can't attend this morning's class. I need the time to study for tomorrow's exam.
M: I don't think it's wise to say so, since you are not going to give the lecture. You might as well simply skip the class and apologize to the professor later.
Q: What will the woman probably do?
正确答案：B
解析：女士想让Joe转告教授，她嗓子说不出话，不能上课。以此为借口赢得时间准备明天的考试，而男士建议她还是逃课好了，事后再向教授道歉，所以女士很可能为了准备考试而逃课，即B。A错在让Joe替她道歉；C是原本的打算。
