3.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
参考译文:
男:肯尼迪教授这学期一直非常忙。据我所知,他每天都工作到半夜。
女:如果我早知道他这么忙,我就不该这么麻烦他。
问:从对话中我们能得知什么信息?
答案解析:
正确答案为B。对话中,男子说肯尼迪这学期教授一直很忙,每天都工作到半夜,女子说要是早知道的话就不会这么麻烦教授了。可知,女子会自己占用教授太多时间感到后悔,因此B项正确。A,女子和教授相处有困难,对话中未涉及相处问题,排除。C,女子知道教授一直都很忙,对话中女子说要是早知道就不会麻烦教授,可知,女子并不知道教授很忙,因此C项与对话内容不符,排除。D,女子知道教授遇到麻烦了,教授并未遇到麻烦,D项与对话内容无关,排除。

4.
W: If I were you, I would have accepted the job.
M: I turned down the offer because it would mean frequent business trips away from my family.
Q: Why didn't the man accept the job?

女:如果我是你,我就会接受这份工作。
男:我拒绝这份工作的原因是,这份工作需要经常出差,我会经常离开家人。
问:男子为什么没有接受这份工作?
答案解析:
正确答案为D。对话中,男子说这份工作需要经常出差,会经常离开家人,所以拒绝了。可知,男子没有接受这份工作,是因为不想经常出差,不想离开家人,即想花更多的时间陪伴家人,因此D项正确。A,他不像以前那样享受出差了,对话中并未提及男子以前是否享受出差,因此A项排除。B,他认为他不能胜任这份工作,对话中未提及能否胜任的问题,B项排除。C,他认为这份工作工资太低,不足以养家,对话中未涉及工资问题,C项排除。
