242.

M: Have you booked the airplane tickets to spain yet?

W: Well, I thought we should go traveling by ship for a change, so I booked two ship tickets instead.

M: You should have told me or discussed it with me.

W: I wanted to give you a surprise. Don't you like the idea?

M: I like it all right, but it takes much more time to travel by ship than by plane.

W: We have time, don't we? Every time we went on a trip, we were always tied down by schedules. This time will be different. We don't have to rush.

M: You're right. This is our first trip since you retired. We can travel as long as we like.

W: We'll have an easy trip and enjoy every minute.

M: Have you bought traveler's cheques yet?

W: Not yet. I'll go to the bank tomorrow.

M: I'll go with you.

答案解析：

(1) 正确答案为B。根据两人的对话语气和用词，如discussed it with me和我商量，Every time we went on a trip每次我们去旅行及since you retired你退休后，可推知，二人为夫妻关系，因此B项正确。

(2) 正确答案为C。根据We have time, don't we? 我们有时间，不是吗？可知，二人选择乘船旅游因为他们有大量时间，因此C项正确。

(3) 正确答案为A。根据Have you bought traveler's cheques yet?旅行支票你买了吗？女子答Not yet. I'll go to the bank tomorrow.还没有，我明天去银行。可知，他们要去银行买旅行支票，因此A项正确。
