1.

C) He cannot get access to the assigned book.

女：想想看，我们竟然要再周一之前读完300页，教授怎么想的，这么短的时间怎么可能做得到？

男：是的。但是我关心的问题是：我找不到这本书，无论是图书馆还是大学书店里，都没有。

问：这个男人的话是什么意思？

答：他先说了一个yeah，表示对女人的话表示赞同，然后又说出自己另外担心的问题：找不到要读的这本书，因此C项最为贴切：他拿不到那本指定的书。

2.

A) She will drive the man to the supermarket.

男：我能借一下你的车去买些东西吗，城外的超市要便宜很多，而且我也可以帮你带你想买的东西。

女：哦，我不太喜欢别人开我的车，为什么我们不一起去呢？

问：这个女人的话是什么意思？

答：从前半句来看，女人不大乐意让别人开自己的车，但是后面说可以一起（why not），可以看出，她会开车和男人一起去超市。
