解析:

Conversation Two

W: This is Kerry Burke from New York Daily News. I’m speaking to Delroy Simmonds, an(13)unemployed Brooklyn man who missed a job interview Tuesday for the best of reasons: (12)He was saving the life of a 9-month-old boy who was blown into the path of an oncoming subway train by a high wind.

M: Everybody is making me out to be some sort of superhero. I’m just an ordinary person, and a father of two. Anybody in that situation would have done what I did.

W: You were going to an interview when the incident occurred, right?

M: Yes, I was on my way to apply for a maintenance position. I’ve been looking for a job for a year and more. I’m looking for something to support my family.

W: Tell us what happened at the station.

M: (14)There was a strong wind. It had to be 30 to 40 miles an hour. There was a woman with four kids. One was in a pushchair. The wind blew the baby onto the tracks.

W: Witnesses said people were looking on in horror as the child’s mother, identified by sources as Maria Zamara, (15)stood frozen in shock. In the distance, people could see the train rounding a bend, headed into the station. I guess you were not aware of any of these, right?

M: No. I just jumped down and grabbed the baby. The train was coming around the corner as I lifted the baby from the tracks. I really wasn’t thinking.

W: What an amazing story. Thank you very much.

13. What do we learn about the man from the conversation?

解析:B。该题目为细节题。问题是:从对话中,我们可以知道关于这位男士的什么信息?此题目一反常态,出题点位置先于12题。长对话中,以听懂为核心原则,听懂背景和含义是做对题目的最佳方法。根据原文“I’m speaking to Delroy Simmonds, an unemployed Brooklyn man who missed a job interview Tuesday for the best of reasons”,我正在采访Delroy Simmonds,他是一位失业的布鲁克林男子,因为一个再好不过的原因错失了周二的求职面试。选项B)He is currently unemployed,与原文信息相符。其他选项与听到的不相符,如A选项has a baby译为“有一个孩子”,原文是“救一个孩子”;C选项enjoy the interview译为“享受面试”,原文是“错过面试”。因此,此题目正确答案为B。
