M: You’ve guessed it. It was all my father’s fault.
W: What did he do?
M: I was just watching a wonderful football feature program on TV when the lights suddenly went out(go out此处表示灯灭了).
W: Why was that?
M: You see, we’d just had our dinner. My mother was washing my jeans in the washing machine. And the air-conditioners were on in both rooms. I was in my room watching TV.(air-conditioner空调)
W: What was your father doing then?
M: He wanted to warm his tea in the microwave oven . He plugged it in and the fuse broke. And everything stopped all of a sudden.
W: Your next-door neighbor is an electrician ,isn’t he?
M: Yes, luckily, he happened to be at home.(13)He came and fixed it up. But it was half an hour later. I had almost missed a lot.
W: It was an annoying experience for a sports fan like you. But don’t miss the basketball final this evening. Make sure there is no power failure tonight.
Questions 13 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
13. Why does the man look depressed this morning?
14. What was the immediate cause of the power failure?
15. What will the man probably do tonight?

选项 A、His mother’s use of the washing machine.
B、His father’s turning on the microwave oven.
C、His long hours of watching TV.
D、The switch on of two air-conditioners.

答案 B

解析 细节题。本题问突然断电的原因。对话一开始男士就指出是他爸爸的错,后面接着详细解释了“He wanted to warm histea in the microwave oven.He plugged it in and the fuse broke.Andeverything stopped all of a sudden.”即他爸爸用微波炉热茶,刚插上插头,保险丝就断了,就突然停电了。故答案选B。fuse意为“保险丝”。
