W: Have you managed to assemble the machine yet?
M: I’ve been studying the manual for about an hour but I can’t make head or tail of it. I don’t know why they have made it so difficult to read.
Q: What does the man mean?
W: What do you think of your new boss?
M: He only pays lip service to our research program. He’s got to do something about it, say, allocating more financial resources or something.
Q: What can be inferred about the man’s new boss?
选项 A、He’s too talkative to be a boss.
B、He doesn’t support the program at all.
C、He shouldn’t show support only in words.
D、He’s got too many things to do at a time.
答案 C
解析 pay lip service意为“嘴上说得好听”，言外之意是他应切实做一些事，而不是仅仅停留于口头。故选C。既使不明白这个短语，也可根据男士的补充“他应该做点事情……”推断出C正确。
