Answer 1

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

考查情景对话。 小题1:根据答语“你能告诉我他什么时候回来吗”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)。 小题2:根据答语Can I take a message for him“我能给他捎个话吗？”可知，Mary不清楚Peter何时回来。填I don’t know./I have no idea./I’m not sure.。等都可以。故填I don’t know./I have no idea./I’m not sure.。 小题3:根据答语at half past five可知，问的是晚会的时间。故填When will it start?。 小题4:根据at Sichuan Restaurant可知，问的是晚会的举办地点。故填Where are you going to have it?。 小题5:根据上下文的语境可知，这里是“我会尽快告诉他”的意思，只要符合语境，都是正确答案。故填I’ll tell him about it (later/as soon as he comes back)。
