21、 Italian food.B.They are likely to have dinner together. C.The man will treat the woman to dinner tonight.D.The woman refused to have dinner with the man.解析:听力原文 M: Mary, would you join me for dinner tonight? W: You treated me last weekend. Now it“s my turn. Shall we try something Italian? Q: What d
22、o we learn from the conversation? 解析 男士邀请女士跟他一起吃晚饭,女士说“上周你请了我,这次轮到我请你了”,说明这次女士要请男士吃饭,故 B 正确而 D 错误。女士说“我们尝尝意大利食品好吗?”这只是一个提议,并不是 A 所说的那样 anxious。C 将请客的人物颠倒了。A.It“s only for rent, not for sale.B.It“s not as good as advertised.C.It“s being redecorated.D.It“s no longer available. 解析:听力原文 W: Good afternoo
23、n. I“m calling to inquire about the four-bedroom house you advertised in the newspaper. M: I“m sorry, but it“s already sold. Q: What do we learn about the house from the conversation? 解析 女士询问广告中的 house 的情况,男士说“sorry”,就应该预感到不妙,而关键是要抓住 but 后面的信息:“它(这套房子)已经售出”,即 D 项“买不到了”。要想答对此题,不仅要听懂男士的话,而且要读懂选项:A 中的
24、for rent 意为“供租用”,for sale 意为“待售”;B 有比较含义,对话中没有比较;C“在重新装修”,与原文信息无关。A.Colleagues.B.Husband and wife.C.Employer and employee.D.Mother and son. 解析:听力原文 W: John, what are you doing on your computer? Don“t you remember your promise? M: This is not a game. It“s only a crossword puzzle . They help increase
25、my vocabulary. Q: What is the probable relationship between the speakers? 解析 女士问“你在电脑上干什么呢?你忘记你的承诺了吗?”男士回答说“我不是在玩游戏,我是在猜字谜;可以扩大我的词汇量的。”可推知男士原先答应再也不在电脑上玩游戏,而这只可能是儿子对妈妈的承诺。故答案为 D。本题属于人物关系题。只要抓住关键词,把握他们的用词和语气就能准确判断出他们的关系。A.She contacts her parents occasionally.B.She phones her parents regularly at week
26、ends. C.She visits her parents at weekends when the fares are down.D.She often calls her parents regardless of the rates.解析:听力原文 M: Do you still keep in touch with your parents regularly after all these years? W: Yes, of course. I call them at weekends when the rates are down 50%. Q: What do we lear
27、n about the woman from the conversation? 解析 男士问女士这么多年来是否仍然与父母保持有规律的联系,女士说“我总是趁周末话费减半的时候给父母打电话”。B 中的 phone 对应原文中的 call,故正确。A 错在 occasionally“偶尔”;C 错在visit“看望”;D 错在 regardless of the rates“不论话费多少”。A.The next bus is coming soon. B.The bus will wait a few minutes at the stop.C.There are only two or thre
28、e passengers waiting for the bus.D.They can catch this bus without running.解析:听力原文 M: Hurry, there“s a bus coming. W: Why run? There will be another one in two or three minutes. Q: What does the woman mean? 解析 关键在于听明白 another one 中的 one 代替的是前面的 bus:两三分钟后还会来一辆公交车。why do sth. 是不主张做某事的表达。B、C 均与对话内容无关;D
29、 项错在 this,应该是 the next。(分数:7.50)A.The assignment looks easy but actually it“s quite difficult.B.The assignment is too difficult for them to complete on time.C.They cannot finish the assignment until Thursday.D.They have plenty of time to work on the assignment. 解析:听力原文 M: Wow, that“s a big assignmen
30、t we“ve got for the English class. W: Well, it“s not as bad as it looks. It isn“t due until Thursday morning. Q: What does the woman mean? 解析 关键在于听懂比较结构 not as bad as it looks“不像看上去那么糟”以及 not due until“直到才到期”。说明作业不难,而且时间充裕,因此选 D。A 正好把难度颠倒;B 中的 too difficult也不对;作业的上交日期截止到星期四,但这并不等于 C“他们直到截止日才能完成”,故 C
31、 不正确。A.The man will go to meet the woman this evening.B.The man and the woman have an appointment at 7 o“clock. C.The woman can“t finish making the jam before 7 o“clock.D.The woman won“t be able to see the man this evening.解析:听力原文 W: Hello, is that Steve? I“m stuck in a traffic jam. I“m afraid I can
32、“t make it before 7 o“clock. M: Never mind. I“ll be here waiting for you. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 解析 关键是要听到 7 o“clock 和 waiting for you。女士说交通堵塞,恐怕 7 点之前赶不到男士那里了;男士说“没关系,我会在这里等你。”很显然,他们约好 7 点见面。B 正确。男士说他会等待女士的到来,故 A、D 都不正确;对话中的 jam 表示“交通堵塞”而不是“果酱”,make it 在对话中意为“及时抵达”而不是“制作”,故 C 错误
33、。A.She“s learned a lot from the literature class. B.She“s written some books about world classicsC.She“s met some of the world“s best writers.D.She“s just back from a trio round the world.解析:听力原文 M: You really seem to enjoy your literature class. W: You are right. It has opened a new world for me. I
34、“m exposed to the thoughts of some of the world“s best writers. I“ve never read so much in my life. Q: What does the woman mean? 解析 话题是 literature class,关键句是 never read so much“从来没读过这么多书”,说明 A 正确。B 错在 written;C 错在 met,对话中的 be exposed to the thoughts 表示“接触思想”,而不是遇到这些人;D 是利用个别原词进行干扰。(分数:12.50)A.His fa
35、ther.B.His mother.C.His brother.D.His sister. 解析:听力原文 W: I suppose you“ve bought some gifts for your family. M: Well, I“ve bought a shirt for my father and two books for my sister , but I haven“t decided what to buy for my mother, probably some jewels. Q: Who did the man buy the books for? 解析 此题关键是信
36、息对应,在听录音的同时做记录(shirtfather,bookssister, probably jewelsmother),然后仔细听问题“books 买给谁”。A.A job opportunity. B.A position as general manager.C.A big travel agency.D.An inexperienced salesman.解析:听力原文 W: Look! It says they want a junior sales manager , and it seems like it“s a big company . That“ll be good,
37、 for you might have to travel a lot . M: Do they say anything about experience ? Q: What are they talking about? 解析 关键是要抓住核心词:销售经理(sales manager),大公司(a big company),经常出差(travel a lot)和工作经验(experience)。招聘职位是销售经理,而不是 B(总经理的职位),也不是 D(毫无经验的推销员);对话中的 travel 是指出差,而非旅行,故与 C(旅行社)无关。本题符合短对话的常用解题原则之一;听到什么不选什么
38、,因为很多干扰项都是以读音相似作为出发点的。A.Having a break. B.Continuing the meeting.C.Moving on to the next item.D.Waiting a little longer.解析:听力原文 W: I think we“ve covered everything. What about a cup of coffee before we move on to the next item? M: Good idea. I really can“t wait another minute. Q: What does the woman
39、 suggest doing? 解析 关键是要听懂表示建议的句型 What about a cup of coffee before we move on to the next item?(进行下一项之前,来杯咖啡怎么样?)也就是说,先稍作休息,故 A 正确而 B、C 均不正确。D 与对话内容无关,只是利用个别原词制造的干扰项。A.The weather forecast says it will be fine.B.The weather doesnt count in their plan.C.They will not do as planned in case of rain. D.
40、They will postpone their program if it rains.解析:听力原文 W: But what happens if it rains? What are we going to do then? M: We“ll have to count on good weather, but if it does rain, the whole thing will have to be canceled. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 解析 关键是要抓听 but 后面的重要信息“如果真的下雨,整个事情就得取消”
41、,关键词是 rain 和cancel“取消”,含有对应信息的是 C“万一下雨,他们将无法按原计划行事”。本题属于第二个人的话语中间带 but 的转折题,but 后面是答案。对话中没有提到天气预报(weather forecast),故 A 不正确;count on 意思是“指望,依靠”,count in 意思是“把计算在内”,男士说我们得指望天气,而B“他们没把天气计算在内”与男士的话恰恰相反。D 错在 postpone“推迟”。A.He wishes to have more courses like it.B.He finds it hard to follow the teacher.
42、C.He wishes the teacher would talk more.D.He doesn“t like the teacher“s accent.解析:听力原文 W: You took an optional course this semester, didn“t you? How is it going? M: Terrible. It seems like the more the professor talks, the less I understand. Q: How does the mall feel about the course? 解析 关键在于听懂 the
43、more.the less 这个比较句型。“教授讲的越多,我懂的越少”说明男士听不懂教授的课,故选 B。A、C 均为无关原词的胡乱拼凑,D 为无关信息。(分数:7.50)A.Go on with the game.B.Draw pictures on the computer.C.Review his lessons. D.Have a good rest.解析:听力原文 W: Mark is playing computer games. M: Should he do that when the final exam is drawing near? Q: What does the ma
44、rl think Mark should do? 解析 关键是要明白男士使用的反问句型 Should he do that 所表达的否定意味和 when the final exam is drawing near 所表达的背景“期末考试就要来临了,他还应该玩游戏吗?”言外之意即男士认为 Mark 应该“复习功课”,而不是“继续玩游戏”。据此,排除 A 选 C。A.She does not agree with Jack. B.Jack“s performance is disappointing.C.Most people will find basketball boring.D.She
45、shares Jack“s opinion.解析:听力原文 M: Jack seems to think that this year“s basketball season will be disappointing. W: That“s his opinion. Most others think differently. Q: What does the woman mean? 解析 关键是要听到女士的第 2 句话:“大多数人跟他(Jack)的想法不一样。”由此可推出 A“她跟Jack 的想法不同”,排除 D“她跟 Jack 的想法一样”。另一解题小窍门:四个选项中若有两个选项属于矛盾关
46、系,即语义上互相矛盾,二者不能同时为真命题,那么正确答案常常来自有矛盾关系的一组选项之中。A.The man went to a wrong check-in counter.B.The man has just missed his flight.C.The plane will leave at 9:14.D.The plane“s departure time remains unknown. 解析:听力原文 M: Is this the check-in counter for flight 914 to Los Angeles? W: Yes, but I“m sorry the f
47、light is delayed because of a minor mechanical problem. Please wait for further notice. Q: What do we learn from this conversation? 解析 关键在于抓听 but 后面的信息:“航班推迟了。请等待进一步的通知。”由此可推断航班起飞时间未知,即 D“尚不知航班的离港时间”。A 与事实相反:由于航班延误,因此男士并没有错过登机,B 不正确;男士的航班号是 914,并不是说航班的离港时间是 9:14,故 C 不正确。(分数:12.50)A.She has to post a
48、 letter instead.B.She has to turn down the man“s request.C.She“s not sure if the computer is fixed.D.She can“t send the message right now. 解析:听力原文 M:Jessica, could you forward this email to all the club members? W: Sorry, the computer broke down this morning. I“ll do it for you as soon as I have it
49、fixed. Q: What does the woman imply? 解析 男士让女士 forward the email“发送电子邮件”,但是女士说“对不起,电脑坏了。一修好我就发”。其实根据女士最后一句的将来时态也可以判断她现在不能做男士让她做的事(即 send the message),故答案为 D。对话中没有提到信,故 A 错;女士答应修好之后再发,并非拒绝,故 B 错;电脑还没被修好,但不能从中判定女士不肯定能否修好电脑,故 C 错。A.He didn“t get the book he needed. B.He had no idea where the book was.C.The library is closed on weekends.D.He was not allowed to check out the book.解析:听力原文 W: Did you find the book for your reading assignment in the library? M: It closed before I got there ; I had no
