问题
单项选择题
Woman: Are you going to Hawaii on your vacation
Man: Not this year. I am broke.
Woman: Oh! Come on.
Question: How does the woman take the man’s words
A. She thinks he’s not serious.
B. She feels sorry for the man.
C. She is surprised.
D. She is amused.
答案
参考答案:A
解析:come on在口语里有“行了,少来了”等戏谑的意思,在此男人说I am broke是口语里经常见的表示经济紧张的一种夸张的说法,“我身无分文,我破产了。”,但并不是真的破产,所以A选项是正确答案。女人也调侃地说“少来了,行啦”。由女士的话可知,女士根本不相信男士的说辞。
