Dick lived in England. One day in January he said to his wife, I’m going to fly to New York next week because I’ve got some work there. Where are you going to stay there? his wife asked. I don’t know yet. Dick answered. Please send me your address from there in a telegram (电报), his wife said. All right, Dick answered.
He flew to New York on January 31st and found a nice hotel in the center of the city. He put his things in his room and then he sent his wife a telegram. He put the address of his hotel in it.In the evening he didn’t have any work, so he went to a cinema. He came out at nine o’clock and said, Now I’m going back to my hotel and have a nice dinner.He found a taxi (出租车) and the driver said, Where do you want to go? But Dick didn’t remember the name and address of his hotel.
Which hotel are my things in? he said, And what am I going to do tonight? But the driver of the taxi did not know. So Dick got out and went into a post office. There he sent his wife another telegram, and in it he wrote, Please send me my address at this post office.

(答案→)B
解析：
【小题1】本文的第二行有一句I’m going to fly to New York next week because I’ve got some work there.意思为我要坐飞机去纽约，因为我在哪儿有一些事要去做，故本题选B。
【小题2】本文第三行有一句Please send me your address from there in a telegram (电报),意思为请在电报中把你所在的地址寄给我，所以迪克的妻子想要他的电报是想知道他工作的地方，故本题选A.
【小题3】本文第二段第一句提到他去了纽约到达城市中心的一个漂亮的旅馆，故本题选B。
【小题4】根据文章意思可知，迪克晚上出去，把地址忘记在家里，所以无法回答他所在的旅馆，于是又给他的妻子发了一个电报，要求他的妻子把原先发的电报发回来，所以是迪克的妻子把旅馆的地址和名字寄给他，故本题选D。
【小题5】本文第二段第二行提到迪克到达旅馆，就把旅馆的地址通过电报发给他的妻子，故本题描述不正确的为C，故本题选C。
