男：和我一块儿喝杯咖啡吗？
女：我很想，但是我实在是太累了。我熬夜到凌晨三点，一直在写文学课的论文。
问：女人为什么拒绝男人的邀请？
答：女人说她太累了，写论文一直到三点，可见她需要一些休息的时间。因此正确答案为A，她想睡觉。B，她需要时间写论文，前面已经说她写论文写到三点，论文应该已经完成，因此此选项与句意不符。C，她要去上文学课，D，她有睡眠问题，均未在对话中涉及。

女：你昨天去面试了，对吧？怎么样啊？
男：我想还不算太坏吧。有20个人竞争销售经理的职位。最后经过筛选留下我们三个人，但是我觉得那两个人似乎更适合那个职位。
问：男人暗示了什么？
答：从关键词better qualified（更胜任），以及男人说not too bad（不算太坏）来看，他认为自己能得到这份工作的机会很小，因此正确答案为B，他得到这份工作的机会很小。而且也能看出男人对这份工作并不是很有信心，因此排除A，他有信心能获得这份工作。C，找到合适的销售经理并不容易，D，面试并未像他预期的那样进行，未在对话中提及。
