M: How do most students find a job after they graduate?
W: They usually look for a job by searching the want-ads in the newspapers.
Q: What does the woman mean?
正确答案：B
解析：本题关键词是“招聘广告（want-ads）”。B中的find a job by reading advertisements是女士原话的同义转换，因此B为答案。选项A（在报社工作）和C（发现工作很难找）是编造出来的信息；而D是对want-ads的误解，且与女士所说的恰恰相反。

M: Alan is in the basement, trying to repair the washing machine.
W: Shouldn't he be working on his term paper?
Q: What does the woman think Alan should do?
正确答案：D
解析：D
解析：题目询问女士认为Alan应该做什么。关键是要听出反问句型“Shouldn't sb. be doing sth.?”意即“某人难道不是应该在做某事吗？”也即“某人应该在做某事”。work on term paper即finish assignment，故D正确。A为原文的胡乱拼凑；B为无关信息，并用work进行干扰；C是Alan正在做的事。
