　　答案与简析：

　　1. A。 后面的内容说这个人小气(mean)，爱占便宜，故只有A符合语境。

　　2. B。 前者说此人"不适合此职务"，后者辩解说"可是他有经验"。A应改成"Why not?"，D想表达的是"My idea is the same as yours."。

　　3. C。 How's somebody？的意思是"某人的身体状况怎样？"。

　　4. B。 What does somebody look like?是用来打听某人的外表、形象，所以B符合该语境。

　　5. A。 从后面的"I left the cinema midway."可知，这部电影没有引起答话者的兴趣。

　　6. D。 问话相当于"What do you think of...?"或者"How do you like...?"，是询问对方的观点和看法。所以只有B、D符合这个会话模式。但B没有正面回答提问，不合题意。

　　7. C。 只有此问句才能包括答语中的全部内容。A和B的内容都片面。

　　8. D。 问话者想知道的内容是音乐会的质量如何。

　　9. B。 出国学习是好事，本应该激动，但是……。ought to be后面省略了excited。

　　10. A。 It's hard to say往往用于难以给出一个肯定的回答的场合。从答语后面的内容可知D不合语境，其余两者所答非所问。
