M: Mark was looking for you this morning. He wanted to know if you had decided when to go to the museum. And he seemed quite eager to meet you.
W: My goodness, I don't know how many times he's talked about it. When did he become such a nagger?
Q: What does the woman mean?
正確答案：C
解析：關鍵是聽懂女士說的“不知他講了多少次，他什么時候成了這么一個nagger”，nagger意為“喋喋不休、沒完沒了地說話的人，婆婆媽媽的人”。故選C。nagger是由動詞nag派生而來，nag意為“嘮嘮叨叨”。

M: I guess we'll have a hot summer again.
W: I know. Last summer was mild. Do you remember our first summer here? The temperature stayed about 100 degrees Fahrenheit for ten straight days. There wasn't a breeze anywhere.
Q: What does the woman say about their first summer?
正確答案：C
解析：
事實細節題。預讀選項可知，問題問的是過去某時的天氣狀況。聽音關鍵是要分清楚他們對每年夏天的不同描述。根據女士對第一個夏天的描述“華氏100度”，以及“沒有一絲風”，可知非常炎熱。故選C。
