原文
I flew to San Francisco to take care of some business with Mr. Jordan. But as soon as I arrived, I got sick and couldn't meet with him. I had to call our appointment off, Then, when I felt better I thought about visiting him at his home, but he lived too far away. I tried to telephone him during office hours, but he was busy. The receptionist said that Mr. Jordan would call me back, but he didn't. I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it'wou1d take more time and effort than I wanted to spend. A few days later, I saw a man on the street who looked like Mr. Jordan, and I called out to him. It was someone else. When I returned to my hotel that day, I found a message, which said that Mr. Jordan had gone out of town on some sudden unexpected business, I was sorry I had missed seeing him , but I really enjoyed my sightseeing in San Francisco.

Question
15 Why couldn't the speaker meet Mr. Jordan when he got to San Francisco?
16 Why did the speaker give up making another appointment?
17 What do we learn from the story?

答案与分析
15 C 这句的考点是第二句话“But as soon as I arrived, I got sick and couldn't meet with him.”。 这里but是一个转折提示词,as soon as是一个时间提示词。连续两个很重要的提示词,提示了考点的出现。Sick这个词在C选项中又是原词复现,当然就是正确选项。
16 D 这句的考点在I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it'wou1d take more time and effort than I wanted to spend。 这里because 是一个明显的原因项提示词,应该不难听出。但问题是选项对应有点困难,我们必须理解这个句子。他说因为我不想再花更多的时间和努力了。言下之意也就是嫌太麻烦了,和D选项是一个近义复现。
17 C 这是一个考主题的问题,考点不一般不再开头就在结尾。这里是在结尾I was sorry I had missed seeing him , but I really enjoyed my sightseeing in San Francisco. 没有见到他很遗憾,但在San Francisco 的观光还是很开心的。对应了C选项。这句原文有一个but小词,选项中也只有C项有一个but小词,所以对应还是非常完美的。
