Question 9 is based on the conversation you have just heard.

听力原文

M: Has Jimmy been coming in lately?

W: No, I haven’t seen him around. Why? Has he been causing any trouble?

M: Not that I know of. (8) [But I need to see him, because my friends and I lent him some money last month. We haven’t heard from him since.] I heard he comes here a lot, so I thought I’d come in and check with you.

W: Well, that’s funny. (9) [Some other fellow came in asking for Jimmy just yesterday, a real, nervous, pushy type of fellow, saying he needed Jimmy for some study project they were working on.] But I can’t quite remember what it was all about. Is this a lot of money we’re talking about here?

M: No, just 60 pounds between the three of us, but still a bit too much to just let go. (10) [He told us he’d got into an accident.] Nothing serious, mind you, but he damaged someone’s car and wanted to get some money together to make up for the damage he’d caused.

W: Hmm, isn’t that sort of thing usually covered by insurance? And then, if he still wanted to give money as some sort of apology or something, he probably shouldn’t have to go around borrowing it from people.

M: You think Jimmy’s just making it all up? See, I did think it was a bit weird for him to be asking for money for that sort of thing, and his story was a bit vague to begin with. (11) [But I thought maybe he doesn’t want his parents to know about what happened.] So he’d rather come to us and keep things quiet. Anyway, Jimmy is a good guy. So we didn’t make a fuss about it.

9. What do we learn about the man who came to see the woman yesterday?（关于昨天来见女士的那位男子，我们能知道什么？）

解析：B。录音中提到，就在昨天，另一个人也来女士这里找吉米，说他需要找到吉米，因为他们正在进行某个研究项目（some study project they were working on）。B项的working on a study project with Jimmy与录音内容相符，故B项正确。

错项排除：录音中昨天来见女士的男子未对吉米做出评价，故A项错误。录音中提到道歉是女士猜想吉米或许想额外给钱作为道歉，并不是说这位男子要向吉米道歉，故C项错误。录音中提到，男子和吉米一起合作项目，并非邀请女士参加项目，故D项错误。
