原文+答案解析

215.
M: Hi, are you being helped?
W: No, I'm not. I'm interested in some gloves.
M: All our gloves are here. What do you think of this pair here? It's made of silk.
W: Hm, it looks nice, but I'd like to have something warm for the winter.
M: Maybe you would like heavy wool gloves. How about this pair?
W: I think that's what I want. How much is it?
M: It's... forty dollars.
W: It's a little expensive. Do you think it's possible to get a discount?
M: Hm, since you like it so much, how about a 10 percent discount. That's the best I can offer.
W: That's good.
M: Is there anything else I can get for you, a pair of socks?
W: No, that should be it. Thank you.

答案解析：
(1) 正确答案为B。根据I'm interested in some gloves.我想看看手套。可知，女子在找手套，因此B项正确。
(2) 正确答案为B。根据手套原价forty dollars40美元，男子给女子10 percent discount9折优惠，即36美元，因此B项正确。
(3) 正确答案为C。根据It's made of silk.它是丝质的。和女子说but I'd like to have something warm for the winter.可是我想要冬天戴的保暖手套。可知，女子没有买男子推荐的第一副手套，是因为那个手套是丝质的，不符合女子的要求，因此C项正确。
