Answer 1

【答案】
（1）D
（2）C
（3）B
【解析】這是一個(gè)笑話，Jack借口參加祖父的葬禮而請(qǐng)假剛離開不久，他的祖父來(lái)看他。老板借用人死后后靈魂來(lái)揭穿Jack的謊言。
（1）推理判斷。根據(jù)老板的話About an hour after you left yesterday to go to your grandfather’s funeral(葬禮), he dropped in to see you.可知他撒了謊，故選D。
（2）推理判斷。從對(duì)話中可知Jack 的祖父是順便來(lái)看他，drop in順便走訪。故選C。
（3）推理判斷。老板這樣說(shuō)的意思是他在告訴Jack這樣就能解釋“你的祖父來(lái)看你”了，也就是告訴Jack他知道Jack說(shuō)謊了。故選B。
