男：嗨，苏珊！约翰逊教授推荐的那书你看完了吗？

女：噢，我并没有像看小说那样看那本书。我只是看了里面吸引我的几章而已。

女：嗯，我知道她一整周都没来上课。所以我今天早上给她打电话，打算问问她是不是病了。然后我才知道她丈夫出车祸了，受伤很严重。

问：女子说了简的什么信息？

答：正确答案为D。从女子的话中得知，简的丈夫出车祸，伤势很重，所以简没来上课，可以推断出简是在照顾丈夫，因此正确答案为D，她必须要照顾她的丈夫，所以没上课，attend to有照料，照顾的意思。A，她因为病了所以一周都没来上课，与对话内容不符，简并没有生病，排除。B，她在车祸中严重受伤，对话中受伤的是简的丈夫，与对话不符，排除。C，她打电话来说她的丈夫住院了，对话中是女子给简打的电话，简并没有打电话说明情况，与对话不符，排除。
