答案解析

Now you'll hear the two long conversations.
Conversation One
W: Hey, Taxi! Ah, great. Thanks for pulling over.
M: Where to?
W: Well, [19]I'm going to the National Museum of Art, and...
M: Hop in. No problem. Hang on!
W: Uh. Excuse me. How long does it take to get there?
M: Well, that all depends on the traffic, but it shouldn't take more than twenty minutes for the average driver.
W: Oh.
M: And I'm not average. I have driving down to an art, so [20]we should be able to cruise through traffic and get there in less than twenty minutes.
W: Okay. Uh, sorry for asking…
M: Yeah?
W: But do you have any idea of how much the fare will be?
M: Oh, it shouldn't be more than 18 dollars... not including a... uh-hum... a tip of course.
W: Oh, and by the way, do you know what time the museum closes?
M: Well, I would guess around 6 o'clock.
W: Uh, do you have the time?
M: Yeah. It's half past four.
W: Thanks.
M: Uh, is this your first time to the city, right?
W: Yeah. How did you know?
M: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in this city because they walk down the street looking straight up at the skyscrapers.
W: Oh, before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurants downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price?
M: Umm... Well, [21]the Mexican restaurant, La Fajita, is fantastic. It's not as inexpensive as other places I know, but the decor is very authentic, and the portions are larger than most places I've been to.
W: Sounds great! How do I get there from the museum?
M: Well, [22]you can catch the subway right outside the museum. There are buses that run that way, but you would have to transfer a couple of times. And there are taxis too, but they don't run by the museum that often.
W: Okay. Thanks.

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. Where is the woman going?
正确答案：A
解析：由选项预测本题可能考查地点。对话一开始女士就说“我要去国家艺术博物馆”，故选A。
20. How long will it take to get to the woman's destination?
正确答案：C
解析：时间题。如果对话中有多处提及了时间，则要适当做笔记，听清问题之后再做出选择，切勿张冠李戴。男士说，普通的司机不需要超过20分钟，而自己非比寻常，少于20分钟就可以了，故选C。
21. How does the man comment on the Mexican restaurant he recommends?
正确答案：D
解析：由选项预测本题可能考查某人对某事物的评价。根据关键词fantastic，not as inexpensive，authentic及larger可以归纳出男士对墨西哥饭店的评价：与其他饭店相比，这里虽贵却物有所值，即D项。
22. Which seems to be the most convenient way to the restaurant?
正确答案：A
解析：本题考查交通工具，需快速地对听到的内容做出判断。男士谈及了几种交通工具，除了第一种，B、C都被男士很快否定——听到but要排除其前面的内容，D未提及。
