Finish their chemistry experiment.(分数:7.00)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 What will the speakers probably do next?解析 女士说“我们还是把实验报告留到迟一点做吧。不过首先我们最好要保证做好我们的实验。”对话中的“do a good job on our experiment”和 D 相吻合,故
28、 D 正确。由动词选项知,本题为对话“尾巴题”,一般问对话双方下一步的行动,结尾处的内容是答题要点。Conversation Two(分数:28.00)(1).A. She doesnt want to pay the late fee.B. She was given incorrect information.C. She cant afford to pay her tuition.D. She didnt pass her mathematics course.(分数:7.00)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 22-25W: I want to register for this mat

34、her an appointment right away.B. The office was closed the first time she went.C. The computer was out of service the first time.D. She didnt have acceptable identification with her on her first visit.(分数:7.00)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 Why does the woman have to come to the office for a second time?解析 女士说:“她告诉
35、我必须有出生证才能够注册。这就是我的出生证。”所以 D 正确。选项B、C、D 都有 first,而所有选项的主语虽不同,内容却均表示她没有做成某事的原因,故题目应是询问原因。“原因”为老生常谈的考点。听到男士问“你那个时候为什么不注册呢?”就要特别注意女士的回答。(3).A. Her prior schooling. B. Her age.C. Her residence. D. Her driving record.(分数:7.00)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 According to the man, what evidence does the woman need to provid
36、e9解析 男士说:“我们只需要登记住址:有姓名和住址的电话账单就可以了。”故答案为 C。所有选项都很简短,表面上提供不了多少信息。不过所有选项却都和女士的履历相关。听到什么选什么。原文中的同义解析很关键。(4).A. The director probably isnt able to make an exception.B. The director probably wont see her.C. The director usually isnt very helpful:D. The director usually isnt responsible for part-time stu
37、dents(分数:7.00)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 What does the man imply when he tells the woman not to get her hopes up?解析 男士说“如果你愿意,你可以找校长谈一下。如果她能的话她会帮忙的。”后来又说“不过不要抱太大的希望。”所以 A 正确。所有选项内容都表示 the director 不做某事,都是负面的信息。似设条件句往往反着选。“She will help you if she can”,说明她很可能没有办法帮忙。二、Section B(总题数:0,分数:0.00)三、Passage One(总题数:1,分
38、数:21.00)(分数:21.00)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 26-28A sophomore at Colorado State University first had a problem in taking tests when she began college. She said that she was well prepared for her tests.
