1.

W: Hello, is that Steve? I'm stuck in a traffic jam. I'm afraid I can't make it before 7 o'clock.

M: Never mind. I'll be here waiting for you.

2.

M: You really seem to enjoy your literature class.

W: You are right. It has opened a new world for me. I'm expected to the thoughts of some of the world's best writer. I've never read so much in my life.

解析：

1. B 关键是要听到 7 o'clock和waiting for you。女士说交通堵塞，恐怕7点之前赶不到男士那里了；男士说“没关系，我会在这里等你。”很显然，他们约好7点见面。B正确。男士说他会等待女士到来，故A,D都不正确。对话中的jam表示“交通堵塞”而不是“果酱”，make it在对话中意为“及时抵达”而不是“制作”，故C错误。

2. A 话题是literature class，关键句是never read so much"从来没读过这么多书"，说明A正确。B错在written;C错在met,对话中的be exposed to the thoughts表示“接触思想”，而不是独到这些人；D是利用个别原词进行干扰。
