　　参考答案及解析

　　1. What was the first problem with the man's reservation?

　　正确答案：A

　　解析：男士在入住酒店时，遇到了一系列难题：首先，他自报家门时，服务员把他和另一个同名同姓的人搞混淆了;其次，他原订的这一天的房间没有了，第2天才有房间;第三，其他房间也都已订满，只有正在装修中的临时房。本题问他遇到的第1个问题，故选A。本对话前面开头部分一直在说人名。听到有关name，mistake，problem，have two guests under the name即可确定答案。

　　2. Why was it hard to get a room that day?

　　正确答案：C

　　解析：女士在解释房子紧张的原因时说，“我想我们今晚是没房子了。城里正在开一个会……”conference即convention之义，故C正确。A、C句型一致，区别在conference和marathon(马拉松长跑)上;B“几乎所有酒店都在翻修”显然不合常理;D中的时间在对话中未提及。

　　3. What did the man get finally?

　　正确答案：B

　　解析：女士查到有人取消订房，那是一个蜜月套房，每晚需250美元。男士表示要住这个套房，但要求打折。女士说：“我最多给你打9折，另外再免费送一张欧洲大陆式早餐用餐券”。可见男士最后得到的是以225美元住一晚蜜月套房，并获得免费的西式早餐。故B正确。
