问题 Why did George go to the library this afternoon?
W: Hi, George! Glad you’re back. Loads of people have phoned you.
M: Really?
W: I felt just like your secretary!
M: Sorry! I went into the library this afternoon to have a look at a newspaper and I came across something really interesting.
W: What? A book?
M: No, a brochure from a summer festival—mainly Spanish music. Look, I’ve got it here.
W: Spanish music? I really love the guitar. Let’s have a look. So what’s this group "Guitarrini"?
M: They’re really good. They had a video with all the highlights of the festival at a stand in the lobby to the library, so I heard them. They play fantastic instruments—drums and flutes and old kinds of guitars. I’ve never heard anything like it before. W: Sounds great.
M: Okay. Shall we go then? Spoil ourselves?
W: Yes, let’s.
M: The only problem is there aren’t any cheap seats..., it’s all one price.
W: Well, in that case we could sit right at the front—we’d have a really good view.
M: Yeah, though I think that if you sit at the back you can actually hear the whole thing better.
W: Yes. Anyway we can decide when we get there. So will you fill in the form or shall I?
M: I’ll do it. Name: George O’Neill. Address: 48 North Avenue, Westsea. Do you remember our new postcode? Still can’t remember it.
W: Just a minute—I’ve got it written down here. WS62YH. Do you need the phone too?
M: Please. I’m really bad at numbers.
W: 01674 553242. So, let’s book two tickets for Guitarrini.
M: Okay. If you’re sure £ 7. 50 each is all right. How do you feel about the singer?
W: I haven’t quite decided. But I’ve noticed something on the booking form that might just persuade me!
M: What’s that then?
W: Free refreshments!
M: Really?
W: Yes, look here. Sunday 17th of June. Singer, ticket £ 6. 00 includes drinks in the garden.
M: Sounds like a bargain to me!
W: Yes, let’s book two tickets for that. So, what else? I’m feeling quite keen now! How about the pianist on the 22nd of June?
M: Anna Ventura? I’ve just remembered that’s my evening class night.
W: That’s okay. I’ll just have to go on my own-but we can go to the Spanish dance and guitar concert together, can’t we?
M: Yes—I’m sure Tom and Kieran would enjoy that too. Good heavens—£ 10. 50 a ticket! I can see we’re going to have to go without food for the rest of the week—we’ll need to book four!
W: Wish we were students—look! Children, students and senior citizens get a 50% discount on everything.
M: If only!

选项 A、To look at a book.
B、To look at brochure.
C、To look at a newspaper.
D、To book tickets for a summer festival.

答案C

解析 男士对于自己回来得晚表示抱歉,并解释了原因“I went into the library this afternoon to have a look at a newspaper”,也就是说他去图书馆的目的是为了看一份报纸。因此选C项。小册子是无意中看见的,并不是他去图书馆的目的,因此B项排除。
