15、ues have always been central to a culture.七、Section C(总题数:1,分数:40.00)Our lives are woven together. As much as I enjoy my own 1 , I no longer imagine I can get through a 2 day, much less all my life, 3 on my own. Even if I am on 4 in the mountains, I am eating food someone else has grown, living in a
16、 house someone else has built, wearing clothes someone else has 5 from cloth woven by others, using 6 someone else is distributing to my house. 7 of interdependence is everywhere; we are on this 8 together. As I was growing up, I remember being carefully taught that independence, not interdependence
17、, was everything. “Make your own way“, “Stand on your own two feet“, or my mother“s favorite remark when I was face-to-face with consequences of some action: “Now that you“ve made your bed, lie on it!“ Total independence is a 9 in our culture. I imagine that what my parents were trying to teach me w
18、as to take responsibilities for my actions and my choices.

Q: What does the man suggest the woman do? 解析 综合推断题。根据选项中的 read,go,get 等动词和 staff,bus schedule,notice 等名词
21、,可初步判断是和车站信息相关的内容。从对话中可知,女士搞不清楚列车时刻表,男士建议她去售票窗口咨询,由此可直接得到答案 B。A.He was looking forward to seeing the giraffes.B.He enjoyed watching the animal performance.C.He got home too late to see the TV special.D.He fell asleep in the middle of the TV program. 解析:听力原文 W: I really enjoyed the TV special about d
22、rafts last night. Did you get home in time to see it? M: Oh, yes, but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing. Q: What does the man mean? 解析 综合推断题。根据选项中的 he,watch,TV,performance,program 等词,可初步判断应该与 he和电视节目相关。根据男士说的话用的是虚拟语气,but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough
23、to see the whole thing 可知,男士虽然看电视了,但在中间却睡着了,所以 D 是正确答案。A.She wants to take the most direct way.B.She may be late for the football game.C.She is worried about missing her flight. D.She is currently caught in a traffic jam.解析:听力原文 W: Airport, please. I“m running a little late. So just take the fastest
24、 way even if it“s not the most direct. M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game. Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation? 解析 综合推断题。根据选项中的 she,way,flight,jam,late 等词,可判断是与 she 和交通相关。根据对话可知是女士要急着去机场,但男士说“因为有球赛,所以到处都交通拥堵”。由此可推断女士非常担心自己可能会误了飞
25、机,所以 C 正确。A 将原文中的 fastest 偷换成 the most direct;B 与女士去机场相矛盾;D 女士刚上出租车,还没有遇到交通拥堵。A.At a restaurant. B.In a fish shop.C.At a clinic.D.On a fishing boat.解析:听力原文 W: May I make a recommendation, Sir? Our seafood with this special sauce is very good. M: Thank you, but I don“t eat shellfish. I“m allergic to
26、it. Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place? 解析 综合推断题。选项均与地点有关,可判断是询问对话或事件发生场所的。根据对话中seafood,sauce,shellfish 等与食物相关的词以及 eat,recommendation 等可判断是在餐馆。所以 A 是正确答案。A.He is an experienced sales manager.B.He is being interviewed for a job. C.He is a close friend of the woman.D.He is good a
27、t answering tricky questions.解析:听力原文 W: Now one more question if you don“t mind, what position in the company appeals to you most? M: Well, I“d like the position of sales manager if that position is still vacant. Q: What do we learn about the man? 解析 综合推断题。选项涉及 he,sales manager,friend,job,good at 等词
28、语,可能与 he 的职业或性格、关系等有关。根据对话内容可知,对话的场景是一场面试,男子正在接受面试,所以 B 是正确答案。A 中的职位是男子想获得的,但他还不是;C 不能从对话中推断得到;D 中的 tricky 是无中生有。(分数:6.00)A.The man should consider his privacy first.B.The man will choose a low-rent apartment.C.The man is not certain if he can find a quieter place.D.The man is unlikely to move out o
29、f the dormitory. 解析:听力原文 M: I don“t think I want to live in the dormitory next year. I need more privacy. W: I know what you mean. But check out the cost if renting an apartment first.

30、vacy,apartment,place,dormitory等词,可初步推断应该是与 the man 和某种地方(很可能是住所)相关。根据女士的回答,“你改变主意的话,我不会觉得奇怪”可知,由于价格原因男士不太可能搬出宿舍。所以 D 是正确答案。其余均与原文内容不吻合。A.The woman is going to make her topic more focused. B.The man and woman are working on a joint project.C.One should choose a broad topic for a research paper.D.It t
31、ook a lot of time to get the man on the right track.解析:听力原文 M: You“re on the right track. I just think you need to narrow the topic down. W: Yeah, you“re right.

32、同,可初步确定问题是关键;再根据其中的topic,project,paper,track 等可知,应该与某种项目相关。根据对话内容,男士希望女士缩小主题的范围,女士回答“你是对的”,表明女士会采纳男士的建议而缩小主题。所以 A 正确。A.They went camping this time last year.B.They didn“t quite enjoy their last picnic. C.They learned to cooperate under harsh conditions.D.They weren“t experienced in organizing picnic
33、s.解析:听力原文 W: This picnic should beat the last one we went to, doesn“t it? M: Oh, yeah, we had to spend the whole time inside. Good thing, the weather was cooperative this time. Q: What do we learn about the speakers from the conversation? 解析 综合推断题。根据四个选项主语均为 they,所以关键要注意四个动词。根据对话可知,他们是在谈论这次野炊与上次的不同情
34、况和感受,从中可知他们上次野炊只能待在里面,这次则天气配合很好。所以 B 是正确答案。Questions 9 to 12 are based on the conversation you have just heard. (分数:8.00)A.He likes Sweden better than England.B.He prefers hot weather to cold weather.C.He is an Englishman living in Sweden. D.He visits London nearly every winter.解析:听力原文 M: When I say
35、 I live in Sweden, people always want to know about the seasons. W: The seasons? M: Yeah, you know, how cold it is in winter, what it“s like when the days are so short? W: So what is it like?

36、en you go out, you wrap up warm, but inside, in the houses, it“s always very warm, much warmer than at home. Swedish people always complain that when they visit England, the houses are cold even in a good winter. W: And what about the darkness? M: Oh, yeah, around Christmas time, there is only one h
37、our of daylight, so you really look forward to the spring. It“s sometimes a bit depressing, but you see the summers are amazing. From May to July in the north of Sweden, the sun never sets. It“s still light at mid-night. You can walk in the mountains and read a newspaper. W: Oh, yeah, the Land of th
38、e Mid-night Sun. M: That“s right, but it“s wonderful. You want to stay up all night and the Swedes made the most of it. Often they start work early in summer and then leave at about two or three in the afternoon so that they can really enjoy the long summer evenings. They“d like to work hard, but pl
39、ay hard too. I think Londoners work longer hours, but I“m not sure this is a good thing. What do we learn about the man from the conversation? 解析 综合推断题。根据对话内容“.but inside, in the houses, it“s always very warm, much warmer than at home.the houses are cold even in a good winter”,此处的“at home”应该意为“在国内”,
