W: Well, can we interest you in today's special?
M: Um... No...

M: Okay, [20]I'll have the complete service today, but as I said before, I just want to get myhair trimmed. A little off the top and sides. That's all. I mean, that's all.

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What is one service NOT included in the special price at the beauty salon?
正確答案:B
解析:女士說,當日的特別優(yōu)惠是以9.99美元的價格享受洗、剪、吹,外加剃須、背部按摩。A、C、D均有提及;只有B(修指甲)不在服務范圍內,故應選B。通讀選項,知道這篇對話與理發(fā)有關。本題選項涉及相關服務項目,解答時要注意對話中提到哪些項目,以做相應標記。此外,修指甲不屬于一般男士理發(fā)業(yè)務范圍,根據“主題原則”,與主題無關的即為答案,直接選B。
20. Why does the man repeatedly say "That's all"?
正確答案:C
解析:男士的原話是:“今天就來整套服務吧。不過,……我只想把頭發(fā)修一下。上面和兩邊都稍微修剪一點點就可以了……”這里的“That's all”表明男士不想要別的花樣,只需要自己想要的服務,故C正確。根據男士說的“Okay, I'll have the complete service today”,可排除A甚至D(全套服務所需的長時間與quickly矛盾);B無依據。
21. What does the beautician mean by "You're in good hands"?
正確答案:C
解析:女士說:“沒問題,放松點,給你服務的是個好手。”所謂“好手”即是水平高的美容美發(fā)師,故C正確。本題問“You're in good hands”是什么意思 。像這種“短語含義題”,絕不能選其單詞本義,由此可排除A;若頭發(fā)狀態(tài)良好,就不用來理發(fā)了,故B也可排除;D是利用原詞relax設置的干擾項。
22. Why does the customer go to this beauty salon to improve his appearance?
正確答案:D
解析:男士先說,他到城里來面試一份新工作。隨后又抱怨,“我這個樣子怎么去面試?”可見男士來美容院理發(fā)是為了參加面試,故D正確。四個選項均以“He is going to”開頭,差別在to后面的內容上。A、B未提到,可排除;男士說他是一個處理工傷事故的律師,C中的一般將來時態(tài)與對話內容不一致。
