Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?

参考译文：

男：我昨天在街上碰到我们的朋友马克了，他说他已经两个月都没有你的消息了。

女：是啊，我知道。可是我实在是太忙了，没时间打电话给他。

问：从对话中我们能推断出什么信息？

答案解析：

正确答案为D。对话中得知，男子说碰到了朋友马克，马克说近两个月都没有女子的消息，女子说她太忙了没时间给马克打电话。可推断出，马克和女子近两个月都没有联系，因此D项正确，马克和女子有段时间没有联系了。A，男子两个月前在街上见到了马克，对话中表明是昨天见到的，A项与对话内容不符，排除。B，女子忘了马克的电话号码，对话中女子说是太忙了没时间打电话，而不是忘了号码，B项与对话内容不符，排除。C，女子昨天给马克打了电话，对话中是男子碰到了马克，女子与马克好长时间都没有联系了，因此C项与对话内容不符，排除。

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

参考译文：

男：布朗先生让我转告您，他很抱歉不能亲自来与您见面。他实在抽不出时间来拜访您。

女：没关系。我很高兴你代替他前来。

问：从对话中我们能得知什么信息？

答案解析：

正确答案为C。对话中得知，男子转告女子布朗先生的歉意，布朗先生因为时间关系不能亲自前来，女子说很高兴男子代替布朗先生前来。可推知，男子是代替布朗先生来与女子会面的。因此C项正确，男子代表布朗先生与女子会面。A，男子太忙了，所以迟到了。与对话内容无关，排除。B，女子很高兴亲自与布朗先生会面，对话中布朗先生并未前来，因此B项与对话内容不符，排除。D，布朗先生不能来，女子感到很遗憾。对话中女子并未表达此意，D项与对话内容不符，排除。
