原文+答案解析

257.
W: Hello.
M: Hllo, Susan, this is Jim. I'm calling from the bus stop at Pine Street. I've been searching for your house for about thirty minutes now, but I can't seem to find it. I forget to bring the map you gave me.
W: OK. Wait right where you are. I'll come and get you.
M: That's not necessary. If you tell me the direction once again, I'll probably be all right this time.
W: OK. Can you see a bank in the corner?
M: Yes, there's one across the street.
W: Well, cross the street and walk past the shoe shop. My house is the seventh house from the corner on your right.
M: OK. Thanks. I'm sure I'll be able to find it this time.

(2) 正确答案为C。根据Can you see a bank in the corner? Yes, there's one across the street.女子问男子是否看见了拐角处的银行，男子回答说马路对面有一个。可知，银行在马路对面的拐角处，因此C项正确。
(3) 正确答案为A。根据My house is the seventh house from the corner on your right. 我家在你你右手边，从拐角处数第七个房子。可知，苏珊的家是男子右手边拐角处的第七所房子。因此A项正确。
