【小题19】听力原文中明确提到 The British journalist Natasha Devin was challenged by a friend to accept every date she was asked on over a two-month period.因此 Natasha Devin 是接受了一个朋友的挑战才接受这些约会的,故选项 A 为答案
【小题20】听力原文中明确提到 It's one of the things that you should not do on a date, to say "How do you think it's going?" 故答案为选项 A 。选项 B 有一定的干扰性,虽然听力原文中提到了 So about every ten minutes, he would ask me how I thought it was going.但是这句话并非强调不时看时间,可排除 。
【小题21】听力原文中明确提到 the mark of a good date is how comfortable you fed simply to be yourself and not have to put on a show or represent only the most perfect aspects of yourself,由此可知 Natasha 认为一个好的约会应该让人感觉舒适、自然、不做作,因此选项 C 为答案 。选项 B 与选项 C 相反,故排除 。选项 A 与 D 听力原文中未提及,排除 。
【小题22】听力原文中明确提到 It's surprising actually and I do think it's a generational thing because some of the guys that asked me out were a little bit younger than me.由此可知,邀请 Natasha Devin 出去的人有比她要年轻一些的,而约会也就成了例行公事,并不舒适,所以她认为约会也关乎年龄、代沟,故选项 D 为答案 。
