解析

答案：
1.(A) 2.(C) 3.(D)

解析：
1.该名女子最可能在哪儿上班?
(A)私人医生看诊室
(B)保险公司
(C)医院急诊室
(D)护理专校
理由:
本题的疑问词为Where，问的是地点。由第一句男子所说的”my next patient"可推知男子应为医生。再由女子接下来的谈话，以及reschedule一词，可知其为该医生助理.负责安排患者看诊事宜。故(A)为最可能的选项。(C)选项不合常理，因为急诊室毋须事前预约。
2.看诊时间换到什么时候?
(A)周二
(B)周三
(C)周四
(D)周五
理由:
本题问时间，关键词为"What day"及”be rescheduled for"(将行程改至...)这个短语。答案的线索在于女子所说，该患者希望将看诊时间改至明天或后天星期五( "...and would like to reschedule for tomorrow or the next day, Friday")，以及医生指示"schedule him for tomorrow.”两处。由前者可知今天为星期三。由后者可知看诊时间更改至星期四。故(C)为正确选项。
3.该名女子接下来会做什么?
(A)打电话给昆恩先生
(B)寄账单给昆恩先生
(C)取消看诊预约
(D)请包尔斯太太进来
理由:
本题的疑问词为What(什么)，问的是女子接下来要做什么。由对话最后一句可知包尔斯太太提早到了，女子正准备请她进来就诊。关键在于听性send sb in(请某人进来)此一短语。故知正确选项为(D)。
