5、常见，因此对话中没有提供拼读。答案可以由两部分的信息组合来获得：一个是开头的自我介绍“Im Debra Simpson，coordinator of this orientation programme”，另一个是“Ill be chairing the induction session this morning”，而且从所提供的日程来看，说话的当日就是周一，因此主持培训会的人就是 Debra Simpson。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：STRUCTURE）解析：这道题考查的是对细节的把握，在录音中听到“been familiar with the structure of the comp

6、any”，结合这个信息，再在日程中确认周一培训会的第二项任务即可确定应该填写 structure。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：LOBBY）解析：根据日程安排，周一下午是 Company Tour 的活动，那么根据录音中“well start out from the ground floor lobby this afternoon”可以判断 the ground floor lobby 就是 meeting place。这道题考查的是有关地点的细节，在出现答案之前有“Well，before I forget it”的特别提醒，考生应该格外注意这些提醒。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：FRIDAY

7、）解析：这道题考查的是时间，录音中其实也受到了强调(by the end of this week，on Friday afternoon)，因此你应该比较容易确定这个时间是 Friday。九、BConversation Th(总题数：1，分数：4.00)Look at the form below.

Let me take down a few details and Im sure your package will be all right. 对话中客服人员问道“Whats the delivery number，please”，顾客的回答是“Its FRM-40017”，随后客服人员也把这个编号重复了一遍。记录中已经提供了字母部分，因此考生只需填写五位数字。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：FEBR

13、UARY 5 th）解析：这道题在题目里和对话里的表述略有不同，在对话中，顾客说“last Thursday morning，February 5th，I sent a package from Chicago”，而客户发出包裹的日期即为快递公司收取包裹的时间(Date of collection)，因此答案为 FEBRUARY 5th。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：LONDON）解析：这一题从试卷提供的线索来看需要填写一个英国的地名，因为上一条信息是“From：Chicago，US”(即包裹寄出的城市)，而且在空格的后面有英国的简写 UK 来进行限制。所以我们这里需要填的是包裹发往的城市。根据

14、客户的描述“I sent a package from Chicago，to my business partner in London”，这里的答案应该是 London。填空项 1:_ （正确答案：SICNATURE）解析：根据客户的叙述，伦敦的一个名叫 Mason 的人查到了包裹已于周六上午 10:55 送达，但是没有收件人的签名，因为他们认为这是一个送上门即可、无须签收的邮包。“package delivered without signature on file”的意思和 but there was no signature on file 是一样的，都是说没有签名。十、BPART T

20、service, car washes at the workplace, health club memberships and office meal delivery. 这篇讲话的开头，讲话人说明自己是公司的管理人员(manager)，但是有时不能给员工提供某些福利(welfare)。在后面的讲话中他说道，为了保持员工的工作积极性，他想办法给员工提供了一些其他的好处，比如洗衣、洗车、健身俱乐部会员资格和送餐等。这些好处都可以称为 staff benefit。(3)._（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：F）解析：听力原文 F: Our company allows us to

23、, company, and product. We always try to appeal to their emotions in some way, because failing to do this might be the same as throwing money out the window.

24、nce. That certainly helps. Our ads resonate with our potential customers. 这段话的第一句提到了他们公司广告(commercials)的设计原则，后文具体的说明了他们的广告的特点、努力的方向及这样做的原因等。因此这一篇是关于广告原则(advertising principle)的。其中提到的“ads”是广告advertisements 的简略说法，也很常见。(5)._（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：A）解析：听力原文 F: I believe that as organization leaders, wer

25、e responsible for creating a work environment that makes people work happily.

26、t. Even when the conflict appeared to have been put to rest, it might raise its ugly head again whenever stress increased or a new disagreement appeared. So not intervening is not an option. 这一段的开头指明了说话人是一个 leader，后文是介绍他处理员工之间你争我夺的矛盾纠纷的一些经验和方法。他曾经采取回避冲突、幻想矛盾能自消自灭的策略，但却导致危机四伏的结果，因此他的结论是，作为领导，不干预也是不行的

27、。所以这篇讲话是关于领导艺术(leadership strategy)的。十一、BSection Two/B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)You will hear another five recordings.For each recording, decide what the speaker is doing.Write one letter (A-H) next to the number of the recording.Do not use any letter more than once.

30、e in the schedule? 在这一段的开头，讲话人就先因为影响会议的正常进行而道歉(sorry to hold the meeting up)，接着对前面发言的人提到的一个日程(schedule)提出了疑问，最后怀疑自己是不是错过了一些信息。从这一段的语气和用词来看，不属于要求评论(Ainviting comments)、提出抗议(Braising an objection)，而是打断别人的发言(Dinterrupting)。(2)._（分数：1.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：G）解析：听力原文 F: Well, if you ask me, I think Gary is ri
