Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

参考译文：

男：昨天玛格丽特为什么来电话？

女：她想拿回她借我的几本杂志。

问：我们能从对话中得知什么信息？

答案解析：

正确答案为D。对话中可知，女子说玛格丽特来电话的原因是，她想要回她借女子的杂志，因此可知D项正确，玛格丽特想从女子那儿拿回杂志。A，玛格丽特想还女子杂志，对话中是女子应该归还杂志，A项关系弄反，排除。B，玛格丽特想借女子一些杂志，对话中玛格丽特之前已经借了女子杂志，现在是想要回，因此B项不符，排除。C，玛格丽特想向女子借些杂志，对话中玛格丽特是要回杂志的，而不是要向女子借，D项不符，排除。
