M: Well, not necessarily worse. But we are seeing more swings.

Q: What does the man say about the weather?

参考译文：

女：你做天气预报已经近30年了。这些年，天气状况是越来越糟吗？

男：嗯，不一定更糟。不过天气确实波动更大。

问：男子说了天气方面的什么信息？

答案解析：

正确答案为C。对话中，女子问天气状况是不是越来越糟，男子否定，然后说天气波动更大，可见有更多的极端天气出现，因此C项正确，更多的极端天气出现。A，比30年前糟，对话中男子说不一定更糟，所以A项与对话内容不符，排除。B，几乎与以前一样，对话中男子后面有强调天气波动，所以B项与对话不符，排除。D，温度有明显的上升，对话中未提及，排除。

M: Excuse me, I am looking for the textbook by Professor Jordon for the Marketing course.

W: I am afraid it's out of stock. You'll have to order it. And it will take the publisher 3 weeks to send it to us.

Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place?

参考译文：

男：打扰一下，我想找乔丹教授的市场学课程教科书。

女：恐怕已经没有库存了。你必须要预定。出版商把书送过来需要3周的时间。

问：对话最可能发生在哪里？

答案解析：

正确答案为B。对话中，男子在找教科书，女子说已经售完，让男子预定，出版商会送过来，可以推知，二人谈话的地点为书店。因此B项，书店，正确。A，在出版社，男子要买书，不用去出版社，而且女子说书会送过来，可见也不是出版社，排除。C，在阅览室，阅览室不存在售完的问题，排除。D，在乔丹教授的办公室，男子是找教科书，不会在办公室，排除。
