M:Hey, Christine, remember how we were complaining that we wanted to see the drama series but couldn’t afford the tickets? I’ve found a solution.
W:Yeah? Won the lottery, huh?
M:Huh-uh. But, seriously, I did find a way for us to see all the plays and we don’t have to pay a cent.
W:Come on, Jim. That’s impossible.
M:No, really, we can. I called Stanhope Theater to ask if they had student discounts. They didn’t but they did have another suggestion.
W: What’s that?
M:The man there told me they just lost four of their ushers so they have openings.
W: Really?
M:Yeah. You don’t get paid, but you do get to stand in the back and watch the play after you’ve helped everyone find their seats. No seat, but a good view. Then during intermission you help sell refreshments.
W:But Jim, each play is performed on six nights. Can we make that big a commitment?
M: We don’t have to. That’s the best part. They have enough ushers so that each person works only two nights at the same play.
W:I never imagined we’d be able to see the whole series. Let’s take a look at the schedule right now.
5. Why did Christine and Jim think they would not be able to see the drama series?
6. What did Jim learn when he called the theater?
7. At the end of their conversation, how does Christine feel about Jim’s solution?
选项
A、They had to work during the performances.
B、They couldn’t find time.
C、They couldn’t afford to go.
D、The tickets were sold out.
答案
C
解析
“afford”是“买得起”的意思。Christine和Jim认为他们看不成戏剧是因为他们买不起票。正确答案是C。
