F:Hello, Helen Turner, speaking.
M:Hello, this is Nick Harding from the London Office. I’m planning to come across next week.
F:Oh, hi, Nick. That’s great.
M:I’ve got a meeting with a customer in Boston next Tuesday, perhaps we could arrange to meet up either before or after?
F:Good, that would give us a chance to show you the convention centre.
M:That’s what I was thinking.
F:So you’d have to be in Boston on Tuesday?That’s the 8th?
M:Yes. Now, I could stop over in New York either on the way in—that would be Monday—would that be possible?
F:Ah, I’m afraid I won’t be in the office on Monday.
M:Uh-huh, well, the other possibility would be to arrange it after Boston on my way home, which falls on the Wednesday.
F:Well, I guess it’ll have to be that way. I’ll pick you up at the airport.
M:OK. I’ll fax you once I’ve confirmed the flight times.
F:Thanks. Then I’ll get back to you with an itinerary for the day-that’s Wednesday the 9th,right?
M:That’s right. Good, well, I’ll do that and I look forward to seeing you next week.

选项

答案WEDNESDAY

解析 根据题目我们可以判断本题需要填写的是具体的时间。本题的难点是,该时间并非在对话开始时得到确认,而是经过了对话双方几次的协商之后才定下来。所以我们在开始时听到的“Tuesday”、“Wednesda),”若不留意便会填错。在对话中,Nick提到“I’ve got a meeting with a customer on Tuesday,”因此见面的时间是“either before or after”,由此我们推知见面时间不是周一就是周三。而当他提议周一时,Helen拒绝了,于是只能是周三。这一点也由Nick后来的话“…which falls on the Wednesday”而得以证实。
