Conversation Two
M: Hi, honey! What's going on?
W: I have great news to tell you. I just found out that I was accepted as an R.A. next year!
M: That's really great news! [24]I'm sorry that you had to postpone2 your studying abroad because I lost my job. I just interviewed at a home grocery delivery3 business, so we'll see if I get hired.
W: Don't worry. Everything will be OK!
M: I think so. Don't forget I'm an optimist4.
W: Eh, dad, I want to talk with you about declaring a major in anthropology5. Business isn't the best choice for me.
M: Well, I don't know why you can't declare your own major. [23]If this is what you really want to do, then your mother and I will support your decision.
W: Thanks, dad! I just want you to know that I will make you proud!
M: Your mother and I are already proud of you.
W: Thanks, dad. I am really interested in anthropology and I promise that I will become a success with my degree.
M: We believe in you!
W: Well, [25]I'd better hang up. I have a lot of reading to catch up on before finals. Talk to you soon!
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. Which is true about the man according to the conversation?
正确答案：B
解析：细节题。男士是一个乐观主义者，对失业并不绝望，A项显然错误。同时他表示，只要是女士喜欢的专业，自己都无条件支持她，故C项错误而B项正确。D为无关选项。预读选项可推测问题与男士有关，因此听音时可一一对选项做出正误判断，听到问题后再提取符合要求的选项。
24. Why does the man feel sorry?
正确答案：C
解析：细节题男士感到抱歉是因为自己使女士不得不postpone“推迟”她出国留学的时间，答案为C项。A项并不是男士感到抱歉的真正原因，但它有可能先入为主，对考生产生极强的干扰。
25. Where does this conversation most probably take place?
正确答案：D
解析：推理判断题。在对话快结束时，女士明确说她得挂电话了，抓住关键词hang up就不难得出答案为D。
