M: If you aren't doing anything particular, shall we see the new play at the Grand Theatre tonight?
W: Sounds great, but I've got to go over my notes for tomorrow's midterm.
Q: What does the woman imply?
正确答案:A
解析:本题属于第二个说话者的话语中带but的转折题,but后面的内容通常是答案。注意but之后的话:“我得复习笔记,为明天的期中考试做准备”,因此A正确。B为原文不相关词的拼凑;C与but表达的转折语气不相符,故错;D偏离话题。

M: What do you think of the prospects for on-line education? Is it going to replace the traditional school?
W: I doubt it. Schools are here to stay, because they are much more than just book learning. Even though more and more kids are going online, I believe few of them will quit school altogether.
Q: What does the woman think of conventional schools?
正确答案:C
解析:男士问网络教育是否会代替传统学校,女士说“我不这么认为。传统学校会存在下去,因为它们不仅仅提供书本知识。”说明A错而C对,C中的continue to exist是stay的同义表达。B错在fewer,D为无关信息。
