M: Hi, Janet. I hear you've just returned from a tour of Australia. Did you get a chance to visit the Sydney Opera House?
W: Of course I did. It would be a shame for anyone visiting Australia not to see this unique creation in architecture. Its magnificent beauty is simply beyond description.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
正确答案:C
解析:本对话的话题是Sydney Opera House, unique creation in architecture“建筑学上独特的创作”和magnificent beauty beyond description“难以描述的美”,这些用词充分表达了女士对悉尼歌剧院的赞美。对话主题不是泛泛而谈landscape或architecture,故A、B错;Janet说visiting Australia的游客不参观Sydney Opera House很遗憾,而不是D“不到澳大利亚很遗憾”。

M: Sherry, how are you doing with your thesis?
W: Oh, my thesis! That's something I definitely don't want to talk about right now. I finished my first draft some time ago, but my supervisor said I should do more research if I want to achieve the quality he expects of me.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation about the woman's thesis?
正确答案:D
解析:女士不想谈她的thesis,说明有问题,故可排除A和B;对话中只提到她的supervisor,没有提到很多人,故C错;假设条件句“If I want to achieve the quality he expects of me”说明现在还没achieve the quality he expects of me,即D“她的论文没有达到导师的期望值”。
