英語六級聽力精練短對話三
13. A) Wash the dishes.
B) Go to the theatre.
C) Pick up George and Martha.
D) Take her daughter to hospital.
M：You are not going to do all those dishes before, we leave, are you? If we dont pick up George and Martha in 25 minutes, we will never get to the theater on time.
W：Oh, didnt I tell you Martha called to say her daughter was ill and they could not go tonight?
Q：What is the woman probably going to do first?
[答案]A)。[聽前猜測]四個選項都是動詞短語，內容涉及到洗碗、看電影、接人等，故推測本題考查說話人的動作。[精解]對話中男士反問女士不會等洗完了碗再走吧，接著說如果不在25分鐘內接上George 和Martha，可能無法按時到達劇院;女士回答說Martha來電話說女兒病了，今晚去不了了，可見他們不用去接人了，時間也就不緊張了。因此，女士首先可能做的事情是洗碗。故答案為A)。
