【答案解析】答案選A。細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。從Thetwoweresatisfiedwitheachother

可知，相親過(guò)后，兩人對(duì)對(duì)方都很滿意，所以A選項(xiàng)正確，湯姆第一次見(jiàn)對(duì)方就

留下了很好的印象。B項(xiàng)所表述內(nèi)容在文中找不到根據(jù)，不能判斷這是湯姆第幾

次約會(huì)。根據(jù)文章描述，湯姆只是near-sighted,遠(yuǎn)不到盲了的地步。文章僅講

述了湯姆和某一個(gè)女孩相親的精力，對(duì)他的個(gè)人魅力以及是否受女孩歡迎并未提

美國(guó)女總統(tǒng)〃。從該句中可以推斷出“從1969年到現(xiàn)在為止，美國(guó)還沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)女

總統(tǒng)〃。因此問(wèn)題句提供了正確信息。
