W: I just read in the newspaper that The Lord of the Rings is this year's greatest hit. Why don't we go and see it at the Grand Cinema?
M: Don't you think that cinema is a little out of the way?
Q: What does the man mean?
正確答案：A
解析：本題關鍵在于理解習慣用語out of the way“遙遠的”。對于女士的提議，男士回答說：“你不覺得那家電影院離這兒有點遠嗎？”故選A。B、C均與原文毫不相干，D為簡單原詞干擾。out of the way可表示以下含義：1)不擋道，不礙事；2)偏遠，難以到達；3)不尋常，奇特。

W: Bob said that Seattle is a great place for conferences.
M: He is certainly in the position to make that comment. He has been there so often.
Q: What does the man say about Bob?
正確答案：A
解析：be in the position to do是個習慣用語，意為“有能力/有資格做”，另外關鍵是聽懂男士說的后面一句“他（Bob）經常去那里（Seattle）”，故選A。B中的chair和D中的live所表達的信息原文根本就沒有出現過，C用簡單詞匯position進行干擾。
