3、y? W:Ive taken care of everything and Im sure its going to be a wonderful trip. Q:What is the woman going to do?【谜团破解】选D。本题为信息明示题型。从女士的回答“Im sure its going to be a wonderful trip.”可以判断女士要出去旅行，选项D正是此意的转述。选项A和B在原文没有提及；由原文的“Ive taken care of everything”可知，她已经检查过车胎和车闸了，所以C是已做过的事，不合题意。第2题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:Th

4、e new sales manager says he has never met you before. W:Weve been introduced about three times. He seems a little forgetful. Q:What do we learn about the new sales manager?【谜团破解】选B。本题为推断题。根据女士的话，我已经被介绍了好几次了，他好像有点健忘，可以推断这个销售经理记忆力不好，所以正确答案为B。选项A混淆了forgetful和forgiving；选项C在对话中没有提及；选项D颠倒了对话中介绍的顺序。第3题：参考答

5、案：D答案解析：W:I dont understand why this book for self-study doesnt have answers to the questions. M:But it does. You can find them at the back of the book. Q:What does the man say about the self-study book?【谜团破解】选D。本题为含but题型。女士向男士抱怨自学书没有答案，男士说有答案，关键词句是but it does，所以正确答案为D.选项A和B原文没有提及；男士说的back是指书的后面，而不是

6、该书以后的版本，所以排除选项C。第4题：参考答案：C答案解析：W:We mean to let everyone know about the charity concert, but we dont have enough money for advertising. M:How about using the school radio station? They broadcast free public service announcement. Q:What does the man suggest they do?【谁团破解】选C。本题为建议题型。根据“How about using

7、 the school radio station”可以判断该男士建议女士向学校广播电台求助，所以正确答案为C。原文对话只说电台播公益广告是免费的，没有说公益广告就是广播内容，所以排除A;选项B建议的是广告慈善演出的方法，是答非所问；原文对话没有提及为电台募捐，所以排除D。第5题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:By the way, Jane, did you talk to the consultant about our health program? W:I contacted his office, but his secretary said he would be out to lun

8、ch until two. Q:What does the woman mean?【谜团破解】选B。本题为推断题。从女士的回答“but his secretary said he would be out to lunch until two.”可以推断两点前她是见不到咨询员的，所以也就不能和他说了。选项A与对话中的事实不符；原文没有提及要与consultant一起吃饭，所以选项C不合题意。选项D正好与原文相反。第6题：参考答案：A答案解析：M:I dont know whether to ask Joe or Cora to draw the posters. W:What differen

9、ce does it make? Theyre both excellent artists. Q:What does the woman imply about Joe and Cora?【谜团破解】选A。本题为推断题型。女士说二者有何区别吗？二人都是优秀的画家。由此可以判断两个人都胜任这个工作，所以正确答案为A。其他三个选项原文对话并没有任何提及。第7题：参考答案：C答案解析：M:Mary is in charge of the art and music section; and Charles, the sports page. What about you? W:Im respons

10、ible for the editorials. Q:Where does the woman work?【谜团破解】选C。本题为推断题型。由对话中的“art and music section”（文艺版）“sports page”（体育版）和“editorials”（社论)可以推断出女士在报社工作，所以正确答案为C。其他三个选项：书店、艺术馆和体育馆都不可能出现社论，所以排除。第8题：参考答案：C答案解析：M:I ran into our friend Mark yesterday on the street, and he said he hadnt heard from you for

11、two months. W:Yes, I know, but Ive been too busy to phone him. Q:What do we learn from the conversation?【谜团破解】选。此题为推断题。本题涉及词汇的理解乙从“ran into”可以判断他们是不期而遇，选项C正是此意的转述。原文男士只说昨天遇到了Mark，而不是女士接到Mark的电话，也不是男士开车撞倒了Mark，所以选项A和B排除；原文只说女士很忙，并没有给Mark打电话，所以排除D。第9题：参考答案：D答案解析：M:Im really exhausted, but I dont want

12、to miss the I film that comes on at 11. W:If I were you, Id skip it. We both have to get up early tomorrow, and anyway, Ive heard it isnt that exciting. Q:What does the woman mean?【谜团破解】选D。本题为推断题型。对话中的“If I were you, Id skip it .”是虚拟语气，意思是：如果我是你，我会跳过去不看。由此可以判断，女士认为男士不应该去看电影。选项A的内容与原文建议相反；原文的exciting

13、和eleven都是指电影本身，并不是建议的内容，故排除B和C。第10题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:I thought the librarian said we could check out as many books as we need without our library cards. W:Thats right, but not those reference books. Q:What does the woman mean?【谜团破解l】选B。本题为含but题型。对话中的“but not those reference books .”指女士不能将参考书籍带出，也就是选项B.同

14、时也说明不能选A；原文说我们是否能借参考书，没有说只有学生图书证才能借，所以排除选项C；原文没有说其他学生如何，所以排除选项D。Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the

15、 best answer from the four choices marked A、B、Cand D. Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre.听力原文 The piano and violin are girls instruments. Drums and trumpets are for boys. According to psychologists Susan Onto and Michael Balton, children have

16、 very clear ideas about which musical instruments they should play. They find that despite the best efforts of teachers, these ideas have changed very little over the past decade. They interviewed 153 children aged between 9 and 11 from schools in Northwest England. They asked them to identify 4 mus

17、ical instruments and then to say which they would like to play most and which they would least like to play. They also asked the children for their views on whether boys or girls should not play any of the 4 instruments. The piano and the violin were both ranked more favorably by girls than by boys,

18、 while boys prefer the drums and trumpets. There was broad agreement between boys and girls on which instruments each sex should play and the reasons vary. And while almost half of all boys said they avoid certain instruments because they were too difficult to play, only 15% of girls gave that as a

19、reason. Earlier studies indicated that very young school children aged between 5 and 7 showed no bias in choosing musical instruments, but their tastes become more clear between the ages of 8 and 10. One survey of 78 teachers suggested that after that age, both boys and girls begin to restrict thems

20、elves to the so-called male or female instruments. 第11题：参考答案：D答案解析：Why did Susan and Michael interview children aged between 9 and 11？谜团破解选D。本题为综合推理题。从他们采访孩子时所问的问题可以推测他们为什么采访。原文第四句话“They asked them to identify 4 musical instruments and then tosay which they would like to play most and which theywoul

21、d least like to play.”说明他们采访的目的是想发现孩子对乐器的爱好是否有什么不同，即选项D为正确答案。原文没有提及音乐课程和是否喜欢在学校演奏乐器，所以排除A和C；选项B只是调查的手段，不是目的。第12题：参考答案：A答案解析：Why do many of the boys avoid certain instruments?谜团破解选A。本题为信息明示题。原文中的“half of all boys said they avoid certain instruments because they were too difficultto play ,”说明男孩是因为某种乐器

22、太难弹奏而拒绝，即选项A为正确答案。选项B和D在原文中没有提到；选项C与原文意思正好相反。第13题：参考答案：B答案解析：Which group of children have a bias when choosing musical instruments?谜团破解选B。本题为细节题。文中倒数第二句话中的“very young school children aged between 5 and 7 showed no bias in choosing musical instruments，but their tastebecome more clear between the ages

23、 of 8 and 10.”说明儿童在5-7岁时没有偏爱，但到了8-10岁时他们的爱好开始明朗，也就开始有自己的偏爱，所以选项B为正确答案。选项A和D原文没有提及；选项C是相反的选项。听力原文 In the 1970s, the famous Brazilian football player Pele retired from the national team of Brazil and became a professional player for a team in New York. Football, or soccer, wasnt very popular in the Un

24、ited States at that time.Few North Americans knew anything about this fast-moving sport.

The fans cheer enthusiastically for their favorite players and teams, who respond by playing better than bef

26、ore. In most World Cups, the home team, or the team from the host country usually plays better than most people expect. In 1966, 1974 and 1978, the home teams of England, West Germany and Argentina all won the World Cup. The World Cup is called that because teams from every continent have played in

27、it. However, since the Cup began, all of the winning teams have been from Europe or South America. Teams from Asia or Africa always do well but they havent yet won. Mexico played surprisingly well in the 1970 Cup, which it hosted, but it wasnt among the 4 final teams. 第14题：参考答案：C答案解析：Why wasnt footb

28、all a popular sport in the U. S. in the1970s?选C。本题为细节题。文章说在70年代，足球在美国并不流行，很少有人知道这一运动。由此可以判断，当时足球之所以不流行是因为这一运动对美国人来说还不熟悉。选项A原文没有提及；贝利退役和他去美国踢球是不同的，不可以混淆，所以排除B；选项D是美国人不喜欢足球的表现，不是原因。第15题：参考答案：B答案解析：When does a football team have the best chance to win the World Cup?选B。本题为推理题。从“In most World Cups, the h

29、ome team , or the team from the host country usually plays better than most people expect.”可以判断当一个球队在本国踢球时他们赢的机会就大。选项C在原文没有提到；选项A和D都是有助于球队踢好球，但要踢得最好，还是要在主场踢。第16题：参考答案：A答案解析：How did Mexico do in the 1970 World Cup?【谜团破解】选A。文章的最后一句说明，在1970年墨西哥球队还不在四强之列，即选项A。原文说他们踢得异常好，所以选项B与原文相反；既然不在四强之列，当然不可能拿冠军，选项C和

30、D因此都可排除。听力原文 The worlds smartest adolescents in mathematics and science are in Singapore, according to a global survey of educational achievement. In the 3rd International Mathematics and Science Study, 13-year-olds from Singapore achieved the best scores in standardized tests of maths and science t

31、hat were administered to 287,896 students in 41 countries in 1994 and 1995. The survey suggests that science and maths education is especially strong in the Far East.

38、a for example were needlessly pessimistic”,由此可以判断哥伦比亚学生与日本学生不同，哥伦比亚的学生比较乐观，而日本的学生比较悲观。原文只谈到各国学生对待学习技能的态度，没有对他们是否努力学习进行比较，所以排除选项A；日本等东南亚国家学生数学最好，选项B与原文相反；选项D在原文没有提及。第20题：参考答案：A答案解析：In which subjects did boys score higher than girls?选A。本题为细节辨认题。Boys scored better than girls in physics and chemistry.说明

42、rough voluntary agreements with farmers who were paid to take land out of use.说明政府的这一举措目的是减少生产规模，即A: reduce their scale of production, B,原文是减少土地的使用；选项C是农民们自己做不到的；D项，自给自足是20年代以前的事。第24题：参考答案：D答案解析：精析选D。本题为推理题。见文章最后一段This law was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court on the grounds that genera

43、l taxes are being collected to pay one special group of people,这说明最高法庭拒绝这一法案的原因是因为从中受益的只是一部分人，也就是D, the act would benefit one group of citizens at the expense of others。A不是主要原因；B与原文讲的给予农业部足够的权力相反；C，原文说从中受益的只是一部分人，即农民，由此可知C不正确。第25题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为细节辨认题。文中which were based on the principle of soi
