A. He went to visit his friends in Pennsylvania
32、. B. He went out on a picnic. C. He went to a concert. D. He went to a formal dinner.（分数：2.50）A.B.C.D.解析：听力原文 W: UDid you have a good time last weekend?/U M: Yes, I did. UI visited some friends in Pennsylvania. They live in a small town called Canonsburg./U W: That must have been interesting. Ive ne
33、ver been in a small town just big cities. M: Neither have I. W: What did you do? M: There isnt as much to do there as is here. No plays or concerts, that is, people make their own entertainment, though. W: What do you mean? M: Well, Saturday we went to a potluck supper. W: A potluck supper? Whats th
34、at? M: The whole neighborhood has a party. Everybody brings something. Its all put on the table and you can eat whatever you like. That is a potluck supper. W: Its something like a picnic, isnt it? M: Well, yes. The weather was warm, so we had this one outdoors. But in winter they have them indoors
35、too. W: What else did you do? M: USunday we went for a drive. We had lunch at a drive-in./U W: Is the countryside interesting? M: Beautiful farmland. Youd like it. W: Im sure I would. M: Sunday evening some people came for dinner. It was very informalwe just sat around and talked. Just a nice Sunday
36、 night supper. W: Thats the kind of evening I like. I dont care for a formal dinner so much. M: Neither do I. 事实细节题。本题的难度不大，一开始男士就介绍说：“我去拜访了宾西法尼亚的几位朋友，他们住在一个叫Canonsburg的小城镇里。”因此正确选项很容易就能找到是A项，B、C和D三项均属原词干扰。虽然文中出现picnic，concert和formal dinner，但这三个选项都没有正确表达甚至误传原文的意思。另外，B、C和D项也不能全面回答该提问。(2).What did the
37、 man do last Sunday morning? A. He had a potluck supper indoors. B. He went to a neighborhood party. C. He went for a drive in the countryside. D. He went to a concert.（分数：2.50）A.B.C.D.解析：细节判断题。对话中出现了很多关于活动安排的词，但是选择时我们要注意他们对应的时间是否和题干一致。选项A迷惑性较大，因为关于potluck占了对话一定的比重，但它确切举行的时间是Saturday；而且potluck suppe
38、r是晚餐，不可能发生在早晨；对话中也没有提及是否是在室内，错误较多。对话中男士有这样一句话应该成为我们判断的依据，他说：“周日我们驾车兜风。在一家免下车的饭馆吃中午饭。”根据正常的说话习惯，我们可判定驾车应该发生在午饭之前，即早晨，因此选C项。(3).What does the dialogue mainly tell us? A. The man had a good time last weekend. B. The farmland is beautiful in Pennsylvania. C. People prefer informal parties to formal ones
39、. D. People do not like life in a big city.（分数：2.50）A.B.C.D.解析：主旨大意题。尽管这段对话不是在讨论对某个问题或现象的理解或解释，但是依旧还存在一个核心的话题，即上个周末生活的安排和度过的情况。这类题目的解答方法之一是注意对话的开头。本段对话一开始的提问就提示其主题，正确选项应该是A。其他选项只涉及对话的某部分或者是根据对话的一些推断，比较片面，不能成为正确选项。（分数：7.50）(1).What is the main topic of the conversation? A. The dances of a Native Amer
40、ican dance troupe. B. The classification of Native American ceremonial dances. C. Variations of a basic dance among Native American tribes. D. The training of Native American artists.（分数：2.50）A.B.C.D.解析：听力原文 W: Todays arts report is on Dan Parker of the American Indian Dance Theater. Mr. Parker, I u
41、nderstand your troupe performs traditional music and dance from many different Native American cultures. UCan you give us some ideas of some of the dances youll be doing in the performance tonight?/U M: Certainly. Well be doing won-us-award dance. Originally it was a story telling device to recount
42、battles. Another is the grass dance, performed by the plains Indians, where they actually flatten tall field grass to prepare for a ceremony. W: Since your dancers are from many different tribes, how can you be sure the dances are done correctly? M: Everything we do has been approved by the elders o
43、f our tribes. UThats partly because we dont necessarily know each others styles of dances. But its also because its hard to complete agreement even within the same tribe about exactly how the dance should be done./U W: Anyone who attends one of your performances will notice that your company goes to
44、 a lot of trouble to provide detailed explanations of the origin of the dances, the music, the costumes and so forth. Could you explain to our listeners why you do these? M: Good question. Our explanations show that in our cultures, dance is ritual rather than entertainment. We also want to make it clear to our audience that we are not performing any dances used for sacred ceremonies. 主旨大意题。在采访中，主持人或记者的问题经常是谈话的核心。对话中主持人问道：“你能向我们介绍一下今晚表演的一些舞蹈吗?”可见舞蹈表演是采访的主题，正确答案是A项。B、C、D项虽然都有dance，但所说的都不是要表演的舞蹈
