Daughter: Dad, dad. What’s for breakfast?
Dad: [Dad mumbles something. ]
Daughter: Dad?
Dad: What?
Daughter: What’s for breakfast?
Dad: Uh. there’s a banana on the kitchen counter. Enjoy.
Daughter: Dad, that banana’s all bruised, and it looks like the cat took a bite out of it last night... dad.
Wake up.
Dad: Okay. Uh, there’s some cereal in the cupboard. Help yourself.
Daughter: But there’s no milk.
Dad: Well, just mix up some powered milk.
Daughter: Ah, no way. That stuff is nasty and warm. Come on, dad.
Dad: Uh, okay. I guess I could make some pancakes.
Daughter: Uh, no. The last time you made pancakes, they were as hard as rocks. Even the dog wouldn’t touch them.
Dad: That bad? [Yeah,] Alright. Wait! Why in the world are we having this conversation anyway? You’re 19 years old. Make your own breakfast. I’m going back to bed.
Daughter: Because you love me... plus you said that you’d make something for me if I cleaned the dishes last night.
Dad: Okay. How about some eggs and bacon? I can’t go wrong there.
Daughter: Okay, but don’t put any of that funny stuff in it... you know, those weird mushrooms like you did last time.
Dad: Okay, okay. So, you want me to keep things simple, right?
Daughter: Exactly. But, please hurry. My friend is picking me up in a few minutes.
Dad: On a Saturday morning?
Daughter: Yeah. He’s taking me fishing.
Dad: Fishing? Since when did you start liking fishing?
Daughter: Since Dirk gave me this ring! What do you think?
Dad: What? Wait. I’m not going to ask. Let me get breakfast on the table... Then, we’ll have a long chat.
Daughter: Oh, he’s here. I’ll just take the $ 20 bill out of your wallet. I can buy breakfast on the way. Bye.
Dad: Oh, no!
Questions:
22. Why does the daughter complain about having a banana for breakfast?
23. What other food did the father try to prepare for his family before, but it didn’t turn out well?
24. Why is the father preparing breakfast for his daughter?
25. What is the big surprise at the end of the conversation?
选项 A、The girl’s friend drops by and brings breakfast.
B、The father decides to make his daughter fish.
C、The girl might be getting married.
D、The girl has no time to have a long chat with the father.
答案 C
解析 判断推理题。父亲问女儿什么时候开始喜欢钓鱼了，女儿回答自从Dirk送给她这枚戒指开始，并且问她父亲觉得怎么样，根据西方传统，戒指是男士在求婚时送给女士的信物，所以，我们可以知道Dirk向对话中的女儿求婚了，而且从父亲的反应“Then，we’ll have a long chat．”也可以猜到这一点，所以，答案是The girl might be getting married．由女儿说My friend is picking me up in a few minutes．和He’s taking me fishing．可知她的朋友来的目的是接她去钓鱼而不是选项A的drops by and brings breakfast．而对话中也没有说父亲要做鱼给女儿吃，B也是错的。D选项The girl has no time to have along chat with the father符合客观事实但是不符题意，并不构成the big surprise。答案是C。
