Question

---“Could we put off the meeting?” she asked.

---“_________,” he answered politely. “This is the only day everyone is available.”

1. A.
   Not likely
2. B.
   Not exactly
3. C.
   Not nearly
4. D.
   Not really

Answer 1

D
思路分析：A项not likely（表示坚决不同意）决不可能，绝对不会；B项not exactly根本不，决不，一点也不；C项not nearly远非，绝不是，都与答语answered politely不合。只有D项not really表示语气委婉的不赞同。因此选D。
【点评】本题考查情景交际，难度大。因为四个答语意思太相近，只能结合语境做出选择。
