Answer 1

小題1:he is out/ not at home (at the moment).
小題2:I have no idea/ I’m not sure…
小題3:When will it start?
小題4:Where are you going to have it?
小題5:I’ll tell him about it (later/ as soon as he comes back).

考查情景對(duì)話。
小題1:根據(jù)答語“你能告訴我他什么時(shí)候回來嗎”可知，Peter不在家。be out="be" not at home“不在家”。故填he is out/not at home (at the moment)。
小題2:根據(jù)答語Can I take a message for him“我能給他捎個(gè)話嗎？”可知，Mary不清楚Peter何時(shí)回來。填I(lǐng) don’t know./I have no idea./I’m not sure.。等都可以。故填I(lǐng) don’t know./I have no idea./I’m not sure.。
小題3:根據(jù)答語at half past five可知，問的是晚會(huì)的時(shí)間。故填When will it start?。
小題4:根據(jù)at Sichuan Restaurant可知，問的是晚會(huì)的舉辦地點(diǎn)。故填Where are you going to have it?。
小題5:根據(jù)上下文的語境可知，這里是“我會(huì)盡快告訴他”的意思，只要符合語境，都是正確答案。故填I(lǐng)’ll tell him about it (later/as soon as he comes back)。
