题目解答

答案

我们来一步一步分析这道题目。 题目问的是：“根据文章内容，谁坐在客厅里愉快地聊天？” 我们回到原文中寻找关键信息： 第一句是： > A priest was visiting an old lady in her home. She offered him coffee and they sat down in the living room for a nice chat. 翻译为中文是： > 一位牧师去拜访一位老太太，她在自己家里接待了他。她请他喝咖啡，然后他们坐在客厅里愉快地聊天。 从这句话中我们可以提取出两个关键人物： - 一位牧师（a priest），是男性； - 一位老太太（an old lady），是女性。 他们两个人一起坐在客厅聊天。 所以，坐在客厅聊天的是：**一位男士和一位女士**。 现在我们来看选项： A. 两位女性 —— 错误，因为牧师是男性。 B. 一位男士和一位女士 —— 正确，符合文中描述。 C. 一位年老的牧师和一位年轻女性 —— 错误，文中没有说牧师是年老的，也没有说老太太是年轻的，反而称她为“old lady”，而且她没有牙齿，显然是年长的。但重点是，这位女士是老太太，不是年轻女性。 D. 一位老太太和咖啡 —— 这个选项明显荒谬，咖啡是饮料，不能和人一起“坐下来聊天”。 因此，正确答案是： **B. A man and a woman** --- **答案：** \boxed{B}

解析

考查要点：本题考查学生对英文短文中人物关系的识别能力，需要根据关键信息准确判断对话双方的身份和性别。

解题核心思路：

  1. 定位关键句：找到描述人物关系的句子，明确对话双方的身份。
  2. 分析选项：结合人物的性别、年龄等细节排除错误选项，锁定正确答案。

破题关键点：

  • 明确人物身份：文中明确提到“a priest”（男性）和“an old lady”（女性）。
  • 排除干扰项：注意选项中可能混淆年龄或性别的描述（如选项C中的“young woman”与文中“old lady”矛盾）。

关键信息提取：
原文第一句明确说明：“A priest was visiting an old lady in her home. She offered him coffee and they sat down in the living room for a nice chat.”

  • 人物关系：对话双方是“a priest”（男性）和“an old lady”（女性）。
  • 动作细节：两人一起喝咖啡并聊天，说明是两人共同参与。

选项分析：

  • A. Two women：错误。文中明确提到“a priest”是男性。
  • B. A man and a woman：正确。符合“priest”（男性）和“old lady”（女性）的描述。
  • C. An old priest and a young woman：错误。文中未说明牧师年龄，且“old lady”与“young woman”矛盾。
  • D. An old lady and coffee：错误。咖啡是饮品，无法与人“坐下来聊天”。
