听对话和对话后的问题,选择正确答案。
1. A. At seven B. At eleven C. At ten
2. A. 7:30 B. 7:15 C. 7:00
1. W: Ted, what time do you get to school in the morning?
M: I get to school at seven.
Q: What time does Ted get to school in the morning?
2. W: Does the lecture start at 7:30?
M: Yes, but there is no hurry. We still have 30 minutes to get there.
Q: What time is it now?
解析:
1.该题比较简单,可直接听到答案。从短语what time可知道,问题问的是时间,所以应注意听表示时间的关键词at seven和in the morning。答案为A。
2.此题就比较复杂一点,因为要我们进行简单计算才能得出正确的答案。由对话知道“演讲要到7:30开始”,而下句“还有30分钟的时间”则是得出正确答案的关键。所以正确答案为C。
