15、 on the following news item. （分数：8.00）A.Close to home.B.Far away from home.C.Good academic reputation.D.Money-back guarantee. 解析：听力原文 How do you choose a college? Some of you might choose a school based on the courses that it offers. Some might choose one that“s close to home, or really far away. Bu

16、t how about for a money-back guarantee? Lansing Community College in Michigan is offering that deal to some students. If you take certain classes, and if you don“t get a job within one year after you finish, you can get your money back! There is some fine print to this. You can“t miss any classes, y

17、ou have to do all your assignments, and you have to prove that you“ve been looking for a job. It“s an interesting idea, especially in a state whose unemployment rate is nearly 12 percent. What may be the advantage for Lansing Community College? 解析 新闻开头列举了影响学生选择大学的因素，然后用转折引出另一种因素“退回学费”，并说Lansing Comm

18、unity College 就是有提供这一福利给学生，D 项复现原词 money-back guarantee，故选 D项。新闻确实有提到离家距离远近影响学生择校，但这并不是 Lansing Community College 的优点，排除A、B 项。C 项“良好的学术声望”没有在新闻中提到。A.Nearly 12 percent. B.More than 12 percent.C.Less than 10 percent.D.Nearly 10 percent.解析：听力原文 What is the unemployment rate in Michigan? 解析 根据新闻的最后一句话，可

19、知密歇根州的失业率接近 12%。故 A 项正确。预读选项可知只有两个数据，听音时还应特别注意与这两个数据相关的信息。Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item. （分数：8.00）A.A violent hurricane. B.Long-lasting hot weather.C.A destructive earthquake.D.Severe flooding.解析：听力原文 Well, we“re taking you to Australia next today, where the state of Que

20、ensland in northeast Australia is struggling through the effects of a powerful hurricane. If Queensland sounds familiar, this same region was hit with severe flooding recently. This time, the disaster is Cyclone Yasi. Yasi could be one of the worst hurricanes Australia has ever seen. We want you to

21、look at this video. You can see what looks like a sign that got blown down, flying through the street, being ripped apart. People in Queensland were warned about Yasi a few days ago, so they had some time to get ready. But one official said it could be a tough couple days. What are the Australians s

22、uffering from? 解析 新闻中指出澳大利亚东北部的昆士兰州正在抵御强烈的飓风，澳大利亚人正在与飓风抗争。所以正确答案是 A 项。新闻中谈到昆士兰最近刚遭受过洪灾，但这并不是当前的灾难，排除 D 项“洪灾”。B项“长时间的炎热天气”和 C 项“毁灭性的地震”均没有在新闻中提到。A.Heavy rains haven“t stroke Queensland for a long time.B.People in Queensland have done some preparation for it. C.There was no reports about people“s miss

23、ing or injury.D.The bad weather may be tough for couples.解析：听力原文 What can we learn about Yasi from the news? 解析 新闻中指出，昆士兰州几天前就发出了飓风的预警，因此灾民有时间提前为灾害做准备(had some time to get ready)。B 项“昆士兰民众已经为抗击飓风做了准备”正确。新闻中提到，昆士兰州听得很耳熟，因为它不久前刚刚遭遇洪水，A 项与新闻内容相反。C 项“无人员失踪或受伤的报道”在原文中并没有提到。新闻中讲的是一名官员称，这将是艰难的几天，D 项利用 coup

24、le 一词制造干扰。Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item. （分数：12.00）A.27 years old. B.18 years old.C.37 years old.D.45 years old.解析：听力原文 India is home to more than 1.2 billion people and second only to China“s population. Because of that huge population and the fact that it“s a federal re

25、public like the U.S. India is often called the world“s largest democracy. India“s population is also young. Its median age is 27 years old. In the U.S. that age is closer to 37. It“s no wonder why so many Indians who are close to the voting age of 18 are realizing they have political power. This is

26、something that country“s politicians are noticing, too. Many young people are first time voters. Given that India“s youth makes up half of its billion plus population, how India“s young vote will determine the country“s future. They are obviously really frustrated with current political situation in

27、 their country. The only government these youngsters have really known is the current Congress party Led One, which is in power for the last ten years. During that time, prices have risen sharply. The price of petrol is doubled. Some young people are going to vote for a different party, one that wil

28、l fight inflation and will take firm action to control inflation in the difficult global economy. What is the median age in India? 解析 新闻中提到印度人年龄的中位数(median age)是 27 岁，故选 A 项。新闻中几处提到年龄问题，应注意辨别。B 项是印度年轻人可以选举的年龄，C 项是美国人年龄中位数。A.They refuse to realize their political power.B.They hope to go abroad for fu

29、rther study.C.They have power to decide the new government. D.They favor the current Congress party.解析：听力原文 What can we learn about the young people in India? 解析 新闻中提到，印度年轻人 18 岁就有投票权，而由于他们占了总人口的半数，他们的投票意向会决定国家的未来，即哪个政党执政，故 C 项“他们有权力决定新政府”为答案。新闻中只是说年满 18 岁就可以行使政治权力(political power)，并没有提到年轻人是否会拒绝行使这权

30、力，A 项“他们拒绝行使政治权力”无法得知。B 项“他们希望到国外深造”没有在新闻中提到。新闻末尾提到，现在的执政党Led One 产生诸多问题，年轻人会选其他政党，故 D 项“他们支持现在的执政党”错误。A.The unemployment rate is high.B.The house market breaks down.C.The frustrated political situation.D.Prices of goods rise sharply. 解析：听力原文 What is the current largest economic problem in India? 解析

31、 问题询问的是印度现在最大的经济问题，新闻中提到(prices have risen sharply)，并举了油价的例子，因此答案是 D 项。A 项“就业率低”和 B 项“房市崩溃”均没有在新闻中提到。新闻提到当前印度的政治状况明显堪忧，政府无法解决通货膨胀问题，但题目问的是经济问题，排除 C 项。三、Section B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Conversation One(总题数：1，分数：16.00)Questions 8 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard. （分数：16.00）A.Having he

32、r bicycle repaired.B.Conducting a market survey.C.Lecturing on business management.D.Hosting an evening TV program. 解析：听力原文 W: Good evening, and welcome to this week“s Business World, the program for and about business people. Tonight we have Mr. Steven Kayne, who has just taken over an established

33、bicycle shop. Tell us, Mr. Kayne, what made you want to run your own store? M: Well, I always loved racing bikes and fixing them. When I was working full-time as a salesman for a big company, I seldom had time to enjoy my hobby. I knew then that as soon as I had enough money to get my own business g

34、oing, I“ll do it. I had my heart set on it and I didn“t let anything stand in my way. When I went down to the bank and got a business loan, I knew I“d love being my own boss. Now my time is my own. I open the store when I want and leave when I want. W: You mean you don“t keep regular hours? M: Well,

35、 the sign on my store says the hours are ten to six, but if business is slower than usual, I can just lock up and take off early. W: Have you hired any employees to work with you yet? M: Yeah, a couple of friends of mine who love biking as much as I do. They help me out a few days a week. It“s great

36、 because we play cards or just sit around and talk when there are no customers. W: Thank you, Mr. Kayne. We wish you success in your new business. What is the woman doing? 解析 根据选项推测本题问的是一位女士在做某事。女士一开始就说欢迎来到本周的商务世界，这是一个关于商务人士并且为商务人士提供服务的节目。据此我们可以判断女士是这一节目的主持人，因此选D。A“修理自行车”、B“做市场调查”及 C“做商业管理的演讲”在女士的话中

37、完全没有提及。对话开头便出现了关键词 program，符合长对话“听到什么选什么”的原则。A.He worked as a salesman. B.He coached in a racing club.C.He repaired bicycles.D.He served as a consultant.解析：听力原文 What did Mr. Kayne do before he took over the bicycle shop? 解析 通过选项内容结合其所用的过去时态判断本题问男士过去的职业。男士说他在一家大公司作全职销售的时候很少有时间享受自己的爱好。由此判断他在开自行车店前是一名销

38、售员，故应选 A。B、D 无中生有，C 是根据对话中的男士说喜欢修理自行车(fixing)而设置的干扰。A.He found it more profitable.B.He wanted to be his own boss. C.He didn“t want to start from scratch.D.He didn“t want to be in too much debt.解析：听力原文 Why did the man take over a bicycle shop? 解析 通过选项判断会问男士做某事的原因。男士提到当他从银行得到贷款，他知道自己喜欢当自己的老板。因此选 B。本题

39、B 复现了原文 being his own boss，符合长对话“听到什么选什么”的原则。其他三项均为无中生有，注意 C 中的词组 start from scratch 意为“从零开始”。A.They are all the man“s friends. B.They work five days a week.C.They are paid by the hour.D.They all enjoy gambling.解析：听力原文 What do we learn about the people working in the shop? 解析 当女士问他是否雇人帮忙的时候，他回答说有几个和

40、他一样喜欢自行车的朋友一个星期会来帮几天忙，可知在店里帮忙的都是男士的朋友，故应选 A。B 的 five days a week 过于具体，原话只说是 a few days；C 中的 paid by the hour 无中生有；D 的 gambling 过度推断，对话仅说他们有时会在一起打扑克，不能说明他们好赌。五、Conversation Two(总题数：1，分数：16.00)Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard. （分数：16.00）A.Paper processing. B.Food tr

41、ansporting.C.Roads building.D.Train manufacturing.解析：听力原文 W: Well, the main activities in the region were historically steel and paper processing, I think. M: Yes, but I“m not quite sure about the status of those industries now. Could you tell us something about that? W: Yes, of course. In fact, the

42、y are less significant, but steel-related manufacturing still accounts for 44% of industrial activity. So it“s still very important. In fact, 80% of Spain“s machine tools are from the Basque Country. As for paper processing, there“s still a little. But it“s no longer what it once was in the region.

43、So, is that clear? M: Yes, thanks. W: Now, to get back to what I was saying, there“s a lot of unemployment as well as geographical problems in the region. M: Sorry, Victoria. What do you mean by geographical problems? W: Well, what I mean is the area is very hilly, mountainous in parts. So there use

44、d to be transport problems. Now though there are new train links and better roads, but it may be that some smaller towns inland remain not very well connected, is that OK? Does that make sense? When we talk about specific location suggestions for the factory, we“ll see this in more detail, so we“ll

45、come back to this question, OK? M: OK, right. W: So I was about to say something about the workforce in the region and the level of training and education. In general, it“s very good and improving. What was one of the main industrial activities in the region? 解析 选项均是“名词+动名词”的形式，均表示某一行业，听音时要注意相关信息。对话

46、一开始女士就说该地区历史上主要的活动是钢铁生产和纸张加工，A 属于其中之一，故选 A。其他三项分别出现了听力原词 transport，roads，train 和 manufacturing，但对话并没有提到食品运输、道路建设或火车制造，B、C 和 D 均排除。A.It has gradually given way to service industry.B.It remains a major part of industrial activity. C.It accounts for 80 percent of the region“s GDP.D.It has a history as

47、long as paper processing.解析：听力原文 What does the woman say about steel-related manufacturing in the region? 解析 通过选项中的 give way to，remain，account for 等推测问题关于某行业的发展变化。女士说实际上尽管钢铁生产和纸张加工没有以前重要了(1ess significant)，但钢铁生产仍然占到整个工业的44%，仍很重要(still important)，B 中的 a major part 与此对应，故为答案。A“让位于服务业”中的service industr

48、y 并没有在对话中提及；C 利用对话中的 80%制造干扰，对话说的是西班牙有 80%的机器工具来自 Basque Country，与钢铁生产占 GDP 的比例无关；对话并非对钢铁生产和纸张加工的历史长短作比较，故排除 D。but 一词后往往是出题点，听音时要留意转折处。A.Lack of resources.B.Shortage of funding.C.Transport problems. D.Poor management.解析：听力原文 What problems hinder the region“s development? 解析 从选项关键词 lack，shortage，prob

49、lem，poor 推测是问某种负面问题。女士提到该地区有失业(unemployment)及地理问题(geographical problems)。之后解析地理问题实际上是指运输问题(transport problems)：尽管现在有了新的火车线路和和更好的公路，但一些内陆小镇还是交通不太便利。因此选 C。A 中的 resources，B 中的 funding 和 D 中的 management 在女士的谈话中没有提及。谈话提到transport problems，符合“长对话听到什么选什么”的原则；而且 but 一词后的内容往往是考查点所在。A.Competition from rival companies.B.Product promotion campaigns.C.Possible locations for a new factory.D.Measures to create job opportunities. 解析：听力原文 What will the speakers discuss later? 解析 本题需要在听到关键词的基础上进行一定的推断。在对话的最后，女士提到将要说一下这个地区的劳动力(workforce)以
