　　C)He knows what sort of person Jane is.

　　D)He is irritated at having to wait for Jane.

　　11.A) He is careless about his appearance.

　　男：肖恩这家伙已经找了好几个月的工作了，不过我他那个样子找不到工作也属正常。

　　女：哦，那小子。他应该至少每隔一天刮一下胡子，然后穿的像样一点。

　　问：从这段对话中我们了解到肖恩的什么信息?

　　答：男生首先对肖恩能否找到工作表示怀疑，因为他邋遢。女生接着提到肖恩不修边幅，又说他应该每隔一天刮一次胡子，把自己弄得整洁干净一点。由此可知，肖恩是一个对仪容仪表不太注重，比较粗线条的人shave，刮胡子;be careless about不在乎，不介意。

　　12.A) Jane maybe caught in a traffic jam.

　　女：我希望简能够在知道自己要迟到的时候打个电话过来，这已经不是第一次我们傻等她了。

　　男：我知道，但是她到这儿来的路上确实很堵。

　　问：这个男人的话是什么意思?

　　答：本题是推理题，在做题时要注意仔细推敲。女人说：“Jane已经不是第一次迟到让我们等了，我希望她能事先打电话告诉我们一下”，可见女生对Jane迟到的作法是不满的。这时候男人说：“I agree. But she does have to drive through very heavy traffic to get here.”(我同意。但是她到这里的确要遭受很拥堵的交通。)由此得出，男生对此事的态度是理解或宽容的。Jane可能被堵在半路了。
