23. What is the conversation mainly about?
【解析】选[C]。选项概括性强,本题可能考查对话话题。由对话中的I’d like to make a flight reservation可知答案为[C]。对话中只提到男士要订一张去芬兰的机票,并未提到是否去芬兰旅行,[A]属于过度推断,故排除。
【点睛】对话主题要根据主要内容进行总结,对话开头要给予足够的重视。
24. What are the two flights the man will take?
【解析】选[A]。选项内容表明,本题涉及到两趟不同的航班。由对话中的That’s Flight 1070 from…transferring to Flight 90…可知,答案为[A]。
【点睛】注意辨清17和70,19和90的发音。
25. When will the man start off from Salt Lake City?
【解析】选[B]。选项表明,本题可能考查离开或到达某地的具体日期和时间。由对话可知,男士原计划23日出发,但后来选择提前一天走,因为这样机票比较便宜,又由对话中的It leaves Salt Lake City at 10:00 a.m.可知,答案为[B]。
【点睛】对话中一般会给出两个以上的时间或数字,往往需要根据问题进行简单的计算或推断才能得出答案。
