Why not use my mobile phone? Here you are. Q: What will the man most probably do? 解析 本题实际上是“建议题”。答案规则很明显：建议题型根据动词选答案
17、!女士用 why not(use my mobile phone)表示建议，因此男士很可能是接受建议而使用女士的手机。故选 C。A.Her notebook is missing.B.Her handwriting is difficult to read. C.She wasn“t in class this morning, either.D.She“s already lent her notes to someone else.解析：听力原文 M: I missed the class this morning. Could you lend me your notes? W: My
18、notes? You“ve never seen my handwriting, have you? Q: What does the woman imply? 解析 本题是反意疑问句题，第二个说话者的反意问句并无疑问的含义，其观点等同于反意问句中主句陈述部分。男士向女士借笔记，女士说“你没见过我的书写吧?”说明其书写可能很难辨认，故答案为B。A.She looks good in blue.B.She never wears sweaters.C.She might prefer another color. D.She enjoys receiving gifts.解析：听力原文 W: I
19、 am going to buy Joan a blue sweater for her birthday. M: Are you sure she“d like a blue one?

20、 to paint it.解析：听力原文 M: Wow, your apartment looks great. When did you have time to paint it? W: I didn“t. I had it done professionally.

21、he following week. C.Next week“s seminar is on a different topic.D.There will be two seminars next week.解析：听力原文 M: The seminar scheduled for today has been canceled. W: That“s too bad. But at least the one for next week is still on. Q: What does the woman mean? 解析 本题是中间带 but 的转折题，but 后面是答案。B 表达的正是 B
22、ut 后句子的含义，故为答案。the one 指代 seminar，on 意为“召开”。（分数：9.00）A.It“s dull.B.It“s fun.C.It“s simple. D.It“s complicated.解析：听力原文 M: Do you really have to go down to the river to wash your clothes? W: Yes, but all this considered, life in the country is still a lot less complicated than life in the city. Q: How
23、 does the woman think about life in the country? 解析 比较句型要反应快，本题关键在于听清 less complicated，即 simple，故选 C。A.$3.75.B.$3.85.C.$3.55.D.$3.65. 解析：听力原文 M: I“d like to send this package by rapid service. W: Sure. That will cost $2.5 for the postage and another $1.15 for the rapid service. Q: How much will it c
24、ost the man to send the package? 解析 数字题一般要运算，another 意味着本题做加法。2.5+1.15=3.65，即 D。A.At a shoe store. B.At a bookstore.C.At the airport.D.At a gift shop.解析：听力原文 W: Could I see a pair of cotton shoes like the brown ones in the window ? I need a size six and a haft. M: I“m sorry, but that style doesn“t c
25、ome in haft size. Can I show you a six or a seven? Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place? 解析 解答地点题的重点在于理解相应的地点名词所确立的语境，以及在该语境下的关键词。shoes，window 和 size 这些关键词说明是在买鞋。（分数：12.00）A.How to get Jack out of the office.B.How to improve the situation in the office. C.How to move to another of
26、fice.D.How to work in a noisy environment.解析：听力原文 W: Stan, do you have a minute? M: Oh, hi, Cathy, sure. What“s up? W: I“ve been meaning to talk to you about the situation in the office. M: I“m not in that very often. It“s so noisy that I can“t work. W: That“s exactly what I“m getting at. We“re supp
27、osed to be able to do our preparation and marking in that office. But have you noticed? Jack constantly has students coming in to get help with his course. A lot of people are going in and out. M: Has anyone spoken to him about it? W: No, not yet. But someone“s going to have to. M: We really can“t a
28、sk him to stop having students come in for help, can we? W: No, of course not. But I“m not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine it“s the same for the others in the office. M: Hum. could we ask for a kind of meeting room? When TAs have to talk with the students, they could go to the meet
29、ing room and not use the office. You know, there“s a room down the hall, a rather small room that we could ask to use. It“s only for storing supplies. W: You mean that little storage room? Oh, that would be too small. M: Are you sure? With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks. W:
30、 Come to think of it, you may be on to something. I“d like to take a look at that room. Can we go there now? M: Sure, let“s go. What problem at the office are Cathy and Stan discussing? 解析 选项是四个相关性不大的话题，预测可能是主旨题。女士开头便说明想找男士谈谈办公室的环境，男士指出办公室很吵，女士进一步表示“那正是我想要指出的(getting at)”，由此可知，对话主要和 B相关。A.They want
31、to get some help from Jack. B.They want to talk to Jack about everything.C.Jack is a very popular teacher.D.Jack wants to show he“s a good teacher.解析：听力原文 Why do Jack“s students come to see him? 解析 选项都围绕 Jack 展开，所以听到 Jack 这个名字时，要特别注意。根据“杰克常常让学生进来给他们辅导”，可判断 A 正确。A.They can ask to use a room as the me
32、eting room. B.They can talk to Jack about it.C.They can stop every student from coming.D.They can report this to the administrator.解析：听力原文 What does Stan suggest they do? 解析 选项分别是可以采取的方式，此题为细节题。根据男士所说“我们可以请求得到会议室之类的吗?”选 A。对话中 Start 问道：“有人就此事与杰克谈过吗?”这并非建议，故不选 B 项；C 项在对话中已被否认；D 项未提及。A.His suggestion m
33、ight work. B.His suggestion is pointless.C.She is disappointed by the suggestion.D.She thinks Stan is joking.解析：听力原文 What does Cathy say about Stan“s suggestion? 解析 选项是对男士所提建议的评价。当男士告诉女士那个房间并不小时，女士马上说：“细想一下，也许你言之有理。我想看看那个房间。我们可以现在去那儿吗?”所以选 A。其实选项 B 与 C 有相似性，所以肯定都是错的；D 未提及。（分数：9.00）A.She can“t see an
34、y sign of it outside.B.She doesn“t believe the man.C.She thinks the forecast has not been accurate this week. D.She doesn“t want it to happen.解析：听力原文 M: The weather forecast says it will rain today. W: Yeah, doesn“t it always? They“ve been saying that for a week and I haven“t seen much sign of it so
35、 far. M: Yeah, but look. This time maybe they“re on target. The sky“s very dark. I got a feeling the rain will be heavy. W: If it“s raining heavily after class, wait for me and I“ll bring you an umbrella. M: That“s kind of you to offer, but don“t worry I“ll probably just wait it out. W: By the way,
36、what are the chances that you might be able to have a word with Professor Simpson in Criminology class? We still need some resources for our Psychology project and his input might help. M: I could ask him, although I don“t know how eager he“d be to give us information about such a topic. W: Oh, come
37、 on, he“s always so helpful. Why would he even hesitate? M: Well, he has this mind set, which opposes the notion that criminals must necessarily be psychologically abnormal. He feels it“s just a stereotype. W: Ok. But when it comes to certain crimes like mass murder, there must be a few “marbles loo
38、se“. M: You would think so. But it“s hard to convince Simpson that anyone“s crazy. W: Perhaps he“d make a good reference source in the section where we include counter-arguments to our main thesis. M: Good thinking. Let“s give it a shot. W: That“s the spirit! Why does the woman seem unconvinced that
39、 it will rain today? 解析 男士提到天气预报说今天要下雨时，女士表示，一个星期以来，天气预报天天说要下雨，但一直没看到任何下雨的迹象。由此可知她已经不相信天气预报了，故 C 正确。选项 A 可能会误选，注意时态与原文的不同。长对话的第一个话轮常设考点。A.He is a psychology professor with much knowledge.B.His views during arguments are very powerful.C.He may be able to add information to a research paper. D.He has
40、personal experience in this field.解析：听力原文 Why do the man and woman want to talk to Mr. Simpson? 解析 女士提到 Simpson 教授后，说：“我们的心理学方案还需要些素材，从他那儿也许可以得到帮助。”由此可知他们想要找 Mr. Simpson 的目的是 C。A.He rejects labeling criminals. B.He thinks criminals have certain psychological problems.C.He thinks criminals are abnorm
41、al.D.He thinks that criminals are crazy.解析：听力原文 What is Simpson“s view towards criminals? 解析 从选项中共有的 He，thinks，criminals 等词，猜测本题很有可能问 He 对罪犯的观点。男士说道：“他(Simpson 教授)有这么一种固定的想法，反对罪犯一定是心理不正常这种观点，他觉得那仅仅是一种老套的思维。”A 中的 rejects 是对原文 opposes 的同义替换，故 A 正确。B、C、D 均与长对话中的含义相反，均不正确。长对话中对问句的答语往往是考点所在。三、Section B(总
42、题数：3，分数：30.00)（分数：9.00）A.Comparison shopping. B.Consulting the telephone number.C.Asking for product service.D.Asking the place of a product.解析：听力原文 Yellow Pages advertising is directory advertising because it tells people where to go to get the product or service.

44、ing medium. For some small business, the advertising is generated from local businesses. A Yellow Pages ad is the last step in the search for a product or service by a committed consumer. The Yellow Pages are used primarily for comparison shopping. Although the advertisement doesn“t have to attract
45、the attention of an indifferent audience, it does have to stand out in a competitive environment. The decision about which store to call or visit will be based on certain criteria, the size of the ad being the first. Larger ads get more attention than small ones. Other decision factors include conve
46、nience, range of products or services, and the reputation or image of the store. The most important feature of Yellow Pages advertising is the category system. Certain information is critical to Yellow Pages ads including location, hours and graphics. A recent development in directory advertising is
47、 the electronic Yellow Pages, a database accessed by computer.
