31、ion, in detail, in vain, be ashamed of, on top of, in my minds eye, Congratulation（分数：15.00）_公共英语三级-279 答案解析(总分：110.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、Section Listening (总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Part A(总题数：2，分数：10.00)How much is the red one?（分数：5.00）A.2.B.3.C.12. D.4.解析：听力原文W: This pen is $ 2 and the blue one is a dollar more.
32、M: The red one is four times as much as the blue one.解析本题考查数字计算。对话里有三支笔：this pen 两美元，blue pen 比 this pen 多一美元，red pen 是 blue pen 的四倍。more、four times、as much as 都是关键词。考生做题过程中要听明白三支笔的关系，还要快速计算出结果。A.The computer.B.Screen.C.Frame.D.Nothing. 解析：听力原文W: Can I help you? We have a new type of computer with a
33、 large capacity and an eye-protected screen. Perhaps you will like it.M: Yes, it is really good. Look at the shape, its so thin; look at the frame, its just the color I want. But I have no money on me.解析本题考查提供型题。对方可以接受、也可以拒绝。但无论是否接受都要表达谢意，而正是这个谢意往往成为干扰，因此考生要特别留心。要关注“but”一词后的内容。有时，被提供者会先大加赞赏，把听者说得云里雾
34、里，然后才用 but 引出自己的真实思想。A.In the classroom.B.In front of a desk.C.In a hotel. D.In a singers room.解析：听力原文W: Hello, Id like to reserve a single room with a bath.M: Just go to the front desk and they will help you.解析本题考查细节理解。判断关键词语 reserve a room with a bath 可能发生在哪种场所，教室不可能、前台不可能、歌唱家的房间也不可能。所以选 C 项。A.Tom
35、.B.Jane.C.Jane and Janes boyfriend. D.Tom and Janes boyfriend.解析：听力原文W: Hi, Tom. Havent seen you for a long time. Still studying in the US?M: No, I have graduated and now I am working in a Chinese branch of Microsoft. What about you, Jane?W: I am in the U.S. with my boyfriend now.解析本题考查细节理解。究竟谁现在在美国
36、?Jane 和 Tom 很久未见面，Jane 以为 Tom 还在美国学习，实际 Tom 已经毕业回到微软的中国分公司。本题的难点在于正确理解 a Chinese branch of Microsoft 微软的中国分公司。A.A native and a visitor.B.A waitress and a customer.C.Classmates. D.Colleagues.解析：听力原文W: Would you like to go to the class reunion?M: Where?W: In the restaurant next to the Beijing Exhibiti
37、on Hall. Next Sunday morning.M: How can I go there? there is something wrong with my car.W: You can take the subway to Xizhimen and then walk north for about 500 meters.解析本题考查身份关系。第一句的 class reunion“同学聚会”非常关键。后面的信息“在北京展览馆旁边的饭店、下周日上午、乘坐地铁到西直门再走约 500 米”都是在讲述聚会的事情。选项 A 本地人和来访者干扰在问路上；选项 B 服务员和顾客干扰在对话里有饭
38、店一词；选项 D 同事是题外干扰。What kind of the room does the woman like to have?（分数：5.00）A.A quiet roomB.A room not too big.C.A room with a bathD.All above. 解析：听力原文W: Hello.

39、to have a quiet one with a bath, not too big and not too near the street.解析本题考查细节理解。关于租房的细节有：“安静、不要太大、不要离街太近、要有卫生间”；选项A、选项 B、选项 C 都只体现了其中之一，不全面。A.He cant go to the park because he has no time. B.He will go to the park.C.He has time.D.He agrees with the woman.解析：听力原文W: Its fine. Lets go spring sights
40、eeing in Yu yean tan park tomorrow.M: Thats a good idea. I do want to go if I have time.解析本题考查推断能力。女士认为天气很好，明天应该去玉渊潭公园春游；男士认为主意不错，如果有时间的话一定去。考生需要分析后边的那句话，反着去理解：可是我没有时间，我一定去不了。A.He had a headache. B.He had some medicine.C.He went to see the doctor.D.He was feeling cold.解析：听力原文W: Jack, youre absent fr
41、om this mornings English class.M: Yes, Im coming down with a cold. Ive got a terrible headache.W: Have you taken any medicine?M: Not yet. But the doctor has prescribed some for me.解析本题考查因果关系，直接用 why 来设问。对话中就提出的问题“今天上午缺课”，男士提供了几个信息“我感冒了、我头疼得厉害、我还没吃药、我找大夫开了药”。根据这四个信息，判断他缺课的原因是 A 项。A.They will have a m
42、atch with Class Three tomorrow.B.They will beat Class Three. C.They must have more practice.D.There is some question in they will beat Class Three.解析：听力原文W: Dont forget, we will have a match with Class Three tomorrow.M: Ok.W: You must practice more. Otherwise they will beat us.M: Beat us? Out of the
43、 question!解析本题考查推理判断。关键词语 Out of the question!具有举足轻重的作用，意思是“不可能”。男士认为“他们要打败我们?不可能!”言外之意是自己要打败三班。A.The shop doesnt work.B.The button cant be pushed.C.The woman wants to change her MP3. D.The woman has lost her receipt.解析：听力原文W: Excuse me.M: Yes.W: I bought this MP3 here yesterday but it doesnt work.M
44、: Oh, lets see whats wrong.W: This button doesnt work. When I push it nothing happens.M: Youre right. Ill give you another one. Show me your receipt.解析本题考查主旨大意。对话提供的信息有：昨天买的 MP3、坏了、摁钮不灵了、同意给换一个、需要发票。通过对所有信息的综合分析，判断出关键选项 C 要换一个 MP3 最符合题意。三、Part B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Questions 11 14 ar(总题数：1，分数：4.00)A.The
45、 wife.B.The husband. C.The baby.D.A sheep.解析：听力原文11-14W: You read this?

48、ve with his own mother one day? As I see it, human cloning is unethical and must be prohibited!W: Well, maybe human cloning still has a long way to go, or, maybe, the couple would be better of adopting a child.解析本题考查细节理解。一开始女士说 A couple that couldnt have a baby cloned the husband“一对没有孩子的夫妇把丈夫克隆了。”所以克隆的是父亲。A.To be pregnant. B.To stay in the home.C.To be on the way home.D.To be a family member.解析：解析本题考查惯用语。in the family way 是习语表达，意思是“怀孕”。A.People can face another
