Conversation Two

听力原文

W: Are you watching any good shows these days?

M: Actually, yes. (5) I’m watching a great satire called Frankie. I think you’d like it.

W: Really? What’s it about?

M: (5) It’s about a real guy named Frankie. He is a famous comedian in New York and shows a mixture of comedy and drama loosely depicting his life.

W: I’m sorry, do you mean to say it’s a real-life series about a real person? It’s non-fiction, is it?

M: No… Not really, no. It’s fiction, as what happens in every episode is made up. However, the lead role is a comedian by the name of Frankie, and he plays himself. So Frankie, in both real life and in the TV show, lives in New York City. He’s a comic, is divorced, and has two little daughters. All those things are true, but aside from him, all his friends and family are played by actors. And the plots and the events that take place are also invented.

W: Oh, I think I see now. That sounds like a very original concept.

M: Yes, it is. (6) In fact, the whole show is written, directed, edited and produced by him, (5) and is very funny and has won many awards.

W: That’s cool. (7) I would try to download it. I’m watching a comedy called The Big Bang Theory. It’s a huge hit around the world.

M: Oh yes. I’ve heard of it, but never actually watched it.

W: Well, then you should check it out. It’s also very funny. It’s about four male scientists and a female waitress. The men are very socially awkward but very bright. And this is contrasted by the lady’s social skills and common sense. (8) The show has been running for over ten years, and some of the actors are practically global super stars. Now that they are such famous celebrities.

5. What does the man think of the satire Frankie he recently watched?

解析：A。录音中，男士在一开始被问到最近是否在看什么不错的节目时，说到自己最近正在看“a great satire”, 也就是说男士认为《弗兰基》这部戏很不错，对其评价是积极的。录音后半部分也提到，男士认为这部作品非常有趣（very funny），故A项正确。录音中表明，该剧讲述的是弗兰基的真实生活，由弗兰基本人出演并设计故事情节，因此C项“脱离现实”和D项“由戏剧改编而来”均可排除。B项“有教育意义”录音中并未提到，故排除。因此选A。
