31、rs should be banned.（分数：15.00）_公共英语三级-506 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)What are the two speakers going to do?（分数：5.00）A.To make one more request to the professor.B.To expand their papers to meet the request.C.To complete their papers within thr
32、ee days. D.To postpone finishing their essays.解析：听力原文M: If professor Brown was willing to give us three days extension to finish the paper, maybe he should give us a few more days.W: Jack, you shouldnt make too many requests. Its time for us to work hard to finish the paper. 解析 本题为推测题。应注意男士先提出一个假设，即
33、 if 从句，接着女士对这一假设进行了否定。短语three days extension to finish the paper 意为“延长三天完成论文”。女士回答 You shouldnt make too many requests意为“你不应该有太多的要求”。A.In a kitchen.B.In an orchard.C.In a garden. D.In a picnic.解析：听力原文M: These tomatoes are large! You must have watered them a lot.W: Yes, I did. They ought to be ripe e
34、nough to pick by next Friday when we have our picnic. 解析 本题为推测题。推测对话可能发生的地点。B 和 D 两项都可能是误区。但据所听到的 tomatoes 一词应判断出 B 项错，因为 tomatoes 是蔬菜，不是水果，所以对话不应发生在果园。有的考生因听到picnic 一词就盲目选择 D 项。其实从“你一定浇了很多水”即可知道西红柿一定是自己种的，所以对话是在花园里发生的。A.A dramatist,B.An actor,C.A worker.D.A farmer. 解析：听力原文W: What kind of work would
35、 you like the most if you had the chance?M: If I were going to change my life of work, I would probably make a dramatic change. I would not live in a city. I would move to the country, probably be more involved with nature and with animals.解析 从男士的回答中我们可以清楚地知道他是想去农村做农民。从关键句 I would not live in a city
36、，I would move to the country“我不愿意住在城市，我要搬到农村去。”还有像 nature 和animals 等词都与做农民有关。A.She doesnt know the novel,B.She agrees with the man. C.She enjoys the novel very much.D.She has no opinion.解析：听力原文M: I dont like this novel very much.W: Neither do I. 解析 本题考查考生对句子结构的掌握情况，Neither do I.用于否定句，表示否定，句子结构倒装。男土提
37、出不喜欢这本小说，女士也同意他的观点，故应选 B。A.Selling furnitureB.Making a chair.C.Making a coffee table.D.Moving furniture. 解析：听力原文M: Ill move the sofa and then the armchairs over next to the bookshelf.W: Lets move the other chairs and the coffee table in front of the sofa.解析 本题要求根据对话内容推测对话者在谈论什么事情。考生应根据对话中提到的有关词语move
38、，sofa，armchairs，bookshelf 等词语判断出他们是在谈论搬家具。How many of the employees in this organization are men?（分数：5.00）A.80.B.20. C.40.D.60.解析：听力原文W: Could you tell me how many of your employees are women?M: Yes, certainly. We have a very high percentage of female staff. We employ about 100 people, and eighty pe
39、rcent of them are women. 解析 本题要求进行简单计算，难度不大。应注意问题中问的是有多少男雇员。注意关键句 We employ about 100 people and eighty percent of them are women“我们有 100 名雇员，其中百分之八十是女性，故有百分之二十是男雇员”。A.He loves his present job.B.He is about to retire. C.He is going to open a store.D.He works in a repair shop.解析：听力原文W: Its good to se
40、e you again. What are you doing these days? Youre still working at the same place, arent you? M: Yes, I am. And Im counting the days until retirement. 解析 男士所说 Im counting the days until retirement意为“我在数日子，直到退休”，言外之意是他将退休。A.On the platform,B.At the information desk. C.On the train.D.Near the stairs.解
41、析：听力原文M: Where have you been all this time? The train is about to leave.W: Im sorry I am late, but I was waiting for you at the information desk upstairs. Its lucky I thought to look for you here on the platform. 解析 听懂问题是答对本题的关键。问题是“女士认为他们本应在哪里会面?”短语 be supposed to 意为“本应该，被期望”。答案在于 but I was waiting
42、 for you at the information desk upstairs“但我一直在楼上的问讯处等你”，可见女士认为他们应在问讯处见面。本题的误区是选项 A的 on the platform，考生往往只听到最后一句，而忽略前一句。A.The woman blames the man for his absence. B.The woman thinks that everything was all right.C.The woman thanks the man for his efforts.D.The woman doesnt think it was the mans fau
43、lt.解析：听力原文M: Look, Im sorry I didnt turn up for the match yesterday, but it wasnt really my fault, you know.W: Its all very well saying it wasnt your fault, but thanks to you we lost 8 to 1.解析 本题难度较大，考生往往会因听到 thanks to you 而选择 C 项，也会因误解 its all very well saying it wasnt your fault 而选择 D 项，这是因为考生并没能真
44、正理解女士的回答。对话中 Its all very well，but意思是“当然可以但是”，是表示不赞成，不满意的一种委婉说法。对话中的短语 thanks to 意为“由于，多亏”。因此说女士的回答实际上是一种委婉的责备。A.The man should be very careful while driving. B.The man cant be careful while driving in a fog.C.It is very hard to concentrate while driving in a fog.D.The man shouldnt have driven in th
45、e fog.解析：听力原文M: Although I drove very slowly in the morning fog, I still hit a tree.W: You cant be too careful.解析 本题的关键在于对 You cant be too careful一句的理解上。要知道这并非一般否定句。cant be too + adj的结构意为：“再也不过分”因此，本句的意思是：“(开车时)你再怎么小心也不过分。”三、Part B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Questions 11 13 ar(总题数：1，分数：3.00)A.Germans.B.Russian
46、s. C.Americans.D.Asians.解析：听力原文11-13Everybody knows the hamburger is a very popular American food. However, people in the United States learned to make hamburgers from Germans, and Germans got the idea from Russia. In the thirteenth century the Tartar people from central Asia moved into Russia and p
47、arts of Europe. They fought the Russians and won. They ate something like hamburger meat but it was raw. This raw meat was beef, goat meat or horse meat. Soon the Russians started to eat raw meat too. Germans from Hamburg and other northern cities learned to eat this food from the Russians. However,
48、 they added pepper, a raw egg, and then cooked it. Between 1830 and 1900, thousands of Germans went to live in the United States. They took the hamburger with them. People called it hamburger steak.In 1904o at the Worlds Fair in St Louis, a city on the Mississippi River, a man from Texas sold hamburger steak in a roll. Then people could eat it with their hands, like a sandwich. This was the first real hamburger like the hamburgers we eat today.Today some peopl
