Question 8 is based on the conversation you have just heard.

Conversation One

听力原文

W: (8) Karl, how did your driver’s theory exam go? It was yesterday, right?

M: (8) Yes. I prepared as much as I could, but I was so nervous since it was my second try. The people who worked at the test center were very kind though. We had a little conversation which calmed me down a bit and that was just what I needed. Then after the exam they printed out my result. But I was afraid to open it until I was outside. It was such a relief to pass.

W: Congratulations! I knew you could do it. (9) I guess you underestimated how difficult it would be the first time, didn’t you? I hear a lot of people made that mistake and go in underprepared. But good job in passing the second time. I’m so proud of you. Now, all you have to do next is your road test. Have you had any lessons yet?

M: Yes, thanks. I’m so happy to be actually on the road now. I’ve only had two driving lessons so far and my instructor is very understanding. So, I’m really enjoying it and I can’t wait for my next session, (10) although the lessons are rather expensive. 20 pounds an hour and the instructor says I’ll need about 30 to 40 lessons in total. That’s what? 600 to 800 pounds! (11) So, this time I’ll need to make a lot more effort and hopefully I’ll be successful the first time.

W: Well, good luck!

8. What did the man do yesterday?

解析：C。根据录音开头，女士问男士：你的驾驶理论考试考得怎么样？你是昨天考的，对吧？之后男士给出了肯定的回答，由此可知，男士昨天参加了驾驶理论考试，C项中的driver’s theory exam为原词复现，故正确答案为C。
