36、 the studying of a live giant squid by American scientists.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：文章主要谈论的是日本科学家对巨型乌贼进行的研究，故本题不正确。3.The giant squid was photographed 2,950 feet beneath the North Pacific Ocean.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：由题干中的信息词 the North Pacific Ocean 定位到原文第三段第一句，可知题干表述正确。4.The observations by
37、Tsunemi Kubodera and Kyoichi Mori was reported in the journal Proceedings of Royal Society B.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：由题干中的信息词 Tsunemi Kubodera and Kyoichi Mori 定位原文第六段，可知题干表述正确。5.The Japanese film is a breakthrough in the study of the giant squids life and habits.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：由文中小
38、标题 Giant Breakthrough 可推知题干表述正确。6.There are three competing schools of thought among giant squid experts.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：文中小标题 Hunting for Clues 下第三段明确指出 two competing schools，由此可知题干错误。阅读中需注意表分类的数字。7.The giant squid are capable of quite strong and rapid movement.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）
39、解析：题干与文章小标题 Hunting for Clues 下第六段表述相同，可知题干正确。8.The longest giant squid on record measured 18 feet.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：文中的长度先以 feet 为单位给出，然后都用 meters 换算后放在括号里，这样很容易定位长度，可知最长的乌贼是 59 feet，故题干错误。9.Giant squid, along with their close cousins colossal squid, have the largest 1.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正

42、ting.B.He suddenly decided not to speak.C.He was supposed to speak last night instead. D.He already spoke very briefly tonight.解析：听力原文 W: Wasnt Carl supposed to give a speech tonight? M: Yes, but he backed out at the last minute. Q: What do we learn about Carl? 信息明示题。女士认为卡尔今晚要发表讲话，男士说卡尔最后决定不讲了，所以 C
43、正确。对话中的关键短语是 back out(停止不干)。 考点 be supposed to do sth意为“应该、被期望或被要求做某事”，如：Youre supposed to pay the bill by Friday你最晚得在周五结清这笔账。 back out 意为“中途退出，在完成之前从(某项汁划或事业)中退出”，如：You promised to help-you mustnt back out now你答应过要帮忙的，你现在不应该食言。A.Its too high.B.Its cheap indeed.C.Its acceptable. D.The woman should h
44、ave bargained for it.解析：听力原文 W: I spent $50 on this sofa. Do you think it was worth it? M: Well, I think youve got a real bargain. Q: What does the man think of the price? 信息明示题。男士所说的youve got a bargain 是英语中的习惯用法，意为“你买到了便宜货”，所以 C 正确。 考点 real bargain 意为“合算的交易”，a good bargain 与其同义，与其反义的是 a bad bargain
45、(吃亏的协议或买卖)。 有关“交易”的词伙主要有：discount(打折)，dealer(经销商)，contract(合同，契约)等。A.At two oclock.B.At four oclock.C.At three oclock.D.At five oclock. 解析：听力原文 W: I heard the fire broke out at two in the morning. M: Thats right. And it took the firemen three hours to put it out. Q: When was the fire put out? 综合推断题。女士说是凌晨两点起的火，男士说消防员用了三个小时将其扑灭，由此可知，火被扑灭的时间是五点，故选D。 考点 put sthout 除了“熄灭，关掉”的意思外，也可指“生产；发布消息；起航”，还可指“数字计算结果出错”，如：The devaluation of the pound has put our estimates out by several thousands英镑贬值使我们的估价差了几千英镑。A.Shop assistant and customer.B.Store keeper and customer. C.Post clerk and customer.D.Waitress a
