3、d twenty deaths. I am never at ease when taking a flight. M:Thoungh we often hear about air crashes and serious casual deeds, flying is one of the safest ways to travel. Q:What do we learn from this conversation?选A。此题为信息明示题。男士说“flying is one of the safest ways to travel.”，由此可见他认为“traveling by air is

4、 quite safe”,所以正确答案为A。原文的never at ease是不安的意思，不是从不坐飞机，所以排除B；男士用though否定他紧张，所以排除C；原文只谈到安全问题，没有说悲伤，所以D不合题意。第2题：参考答案：C答案解析：W:I had to wait ten minutes at the table before the waiter showed up, and I finally got served. And I found it was not what I had ordered. M:I am terribly sorry, madam. Its a bit un

5、usually busy tonight. As a compensation, your meal will be free. Q:Where does the conversation most probably take place?选C。此题为地点判断题。从table, get severed, order和meal等词语可以判断此对话发生在饭店，所以答案为C。由meal一词可排除选项A和B；由ordered一词可以排除选项D。第3题：参考答案：C答案解析：M:I cant find my pen. I need it to write a letter. W:Ill Iook for

6、 it later. Right now I need you to help fix the shelf before I paint it. Q:What would they do first?【谜团破解】选C。此题为细节判断题，需要考生判断动作的先后。从right now I need you to help fix the shelf before I paint it可以判断，他是要先安架子。A和D都由later一词加以否定；油漆架子是在安装之后，因此B也可排除。第4题：参考答案：D答案解析：M:Mrs. Winter, I need your advice. I want to

7、buy a dress for my wife, can you tell me where I can get one at a reasonable price? W:Sure go to Richards. It has the latest styles and gives a 30 discount to husbands who shop alone. Q:What do we know about Richards shop?选D。此题为推断题。“it has the latest styles and gives a 30 discount to husbands who sh

8、op alone.”指给独自购物的丈夫打折，显然在鼓励丈夫独自购物。30的折扣只给独自购物的丈夫，所以排除选项A；选项B和C都没有提及。第5题：参考答案：A答案解析：M:My headaches are terrible. Maybe I need more sleep. W:Actually , you need less sun and some aspirin. It would help if you wear a hat. Q:What does the woman think is the cause of the mans headaches?选A。此题为推断题。“you nee

9、d less sun and some aspirin.”说明这人晒太阳太多，所以他头疼的原因是长时间暴露在太阳下。其他三个选项在原文没有提及。第6题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:Did you know this :after almo6t ten years in the United States, Mr. Li still speaks English with such a strong accent. W:Yes, but he is proud of it. He says it is part of his identity. Q:What does the conversati

10、on tell us about Mr. Li?选B。此题为推断题。从男士所言可以得知，李先生讲英语还是带有口音，从女士的“but he is proud of it.”可以推断他不在乎说英语时带有口音，所以选项B为正确答案。与proud相比,poor不是中心内容，所以排除A;选项C原文没有提及；选项D与原文相反。第7题：参考答案：B答案解析：W:This is Mrs. Starched. My heater is not getting any power and weatherman says the temperature is to fall below zero tonight.

11、Could you get someone to comeover and fix it? M:This is the busiest time of the year, but Ill speak to one of our men about going over some time today. Q:Who did Mrs. Starched want to come over?选B。此题为推断题。从加热器出故障，以及someone to come over and fix it可以判断来的应是个电工，所以选项B为正确答案。其他三个选项中的职业都与修理加热器无关，可排除。第8题：参考答案

12、：C答案解析：M:Though we didnt win the game, we were satisfied with our performance. W:You did a great job. You almost beat the worlds champions. Its a real surprise to many people. Q:What do we learn from this conversation?选C。从两人的谈话可以看出，对于比赛结果都比较满意，所以答案应该是C。由“You did a great job.”可以看出男士不是看比赛，而是参加了比赛，排除A；

13、男士并没有认为结果出乎意料，所以排除B；从原文“we didnt win the game”可以排除D。第9题：参考答案：D答案解析：W:Sorry I did not come yesterday, because I had a temperature. Could you tell me the requirement for my term paper? M:The theme of your paper can be about business management or touring resources in China, and the length of the paper

14、 should be no less than fifteen pages. Q:What is the most probable relationship between the two speakers?选D。此题为推断题。从term paper可以判断，两人的关系应该是同学或学生与老师的关系，选项A、B和C均不在学校，所以只能选D。第10题：参考答案：B答案解析：W:I dont think we should tell Tom about the surprise birthday party for Lucy. M:Its all right. He promised not to

15、 tell, and he does not make promises likely. Q:What does the man mean?选B。此题为推断题。从He promised not to tell来判断，说话者相信Tom会保守秘密的，所以选项B为正确答案。Tom只是被告知的人，而没有安排Lucy的晚会，从而排除A；选项C和D原文并没有提起。Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times.

21、ins awake”说明鸟在睡觉时可以有意识地控制睡眠，所以答案为C。选项A是早已发现的事实，而不是揭示的内容；选项B的slow brain waves是睡眠的特点；选项D与第二段最后一句相反。第22题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为推论题。从第三段的第二句话“watch carefully on the side away from their companions”和第六段的“scanned for enemies”可以判断鸟类半脑睡眠是因为它们要预防可能的攻击。选项B只是方式，不是原因；选项C原文没有提及；选项D,原文是away from their companions,不

22、是on their companions。第23题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为推理题。从文章第六段最后一句话“The mirror-side eye closed as if the reflection were a companion and the other eye stayed open ”说明为了安全起见，鸟比较喜欢成双睡眠：“birds prefer to sleep in pairs for the sake of security”。选项A太绝对；选项C中的imagined指“想象中的”，与镜子里的不是一回事；选项D的enjoy原文没有提及。第24题：参考答案

23、：B答案解析：精析选B。本题为推理题。见文章倒数第二段最后一句“Perhaps keeping one side of the brain awake allows a sleeping animal to surface occasionally to avoid drowning.”。水中哺乳动物半睡眠的目的是为了不被淹死。其他三个选项原文没有提及。第25题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为推理题。文章的最后一句“He speculates that more examples may turn up when we take a closer look at other spe

25、师的人数，不是病人的人数。第27题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为推断题。文章第三段的倒数第三句“A skeptic might conclude that TT practitioners are afraid to lay their beliefs on the line”说明TT practitioners不想为了一百万美元而拿自己的事业开玩笑。选项A和C在原文没有提到；选项D错误理解lay their beliefs on line“冒受损失的危险”。第28题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为细节辨认题。从文章第三段“to anyone who can demo

26、nstrate the existence of a human energy field”可以判断试验的目的是想检测人体是否有能量场，也就是说“to test whether a human energy fields really existed”，所以答案为D。选项A和B原文没有提及；选项C，是她测试医生能否感觉到能量场，而不是自己去本身感受。第29题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为推理题。文章第三段最后but who could turn down an innocent fourth-grader? Says Emily:“I think they didnt take

27、me very seriously because I am a kid.”表明他们认为不会有什么不利，也就是说“they sensed no harm in a little girls experiment”.选项A的guessing是结果，试验者事先并不知道；选项B和D在原文没有提到。第30题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为主旨题。从文章介绍的TT行业者的经历可以看出，有些被广泛接受的观点可能潜在很大的欺骗性。选项B和C太泛，过度概括本文的内容；选项D,TT正确与否用很简单的实验就得到了证明，所以不是什么高深的理论。第31题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为细节理解

28、题。文章第一段第三句话“Two distinct types are on the drawing board”中的drawing board表示蓝图、计划，说明两种方案在计划中。其他三个选项原文没有提及，而且都为时尚早。第32题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为推断题。从文章第一段最后一句“But it promises the greatest gains in freeway capacity”说明它会有助于高速公路交通效率的提高。选项A与原文“require more extensive physical modifications to existing high-ways

29、”相反；选项C的special purposes lane只能是自动车道；选项D的 more lanes原文没有提及。第33题：参考答案：C答案解析：【精析】选C。本题为细节辨认题。文章第二段第一句话说“the driver would specify the desired destination, furnishing this information to a computer in the car at the beginning of the trip or perhaps just before reading the automated highway”说明在自动化公路上行驶之前

31、ough a gate,不是guarded；选项D,不合情理。第35题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为推断题。文章最后一句“the driver would be free to release the wheel, open the morning paper or just relax”说明在自动化车道上行车司机没有必要紧握方向盘。选项A是车道系统的功能；选项B和C与原文意思相反。第36题：参考答案：A答案解析：精析选A。本题为推断题。从文章的第一段第三句“This vision of intelligence asserts，formal education and book

32、ish excellence as the true measures of self-fulfillment. It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice that has brought with it some discouraging results.”可知传统的关于智力的观点是错误的，所以正确答案为A: is widely held but wrong concept.原文说“It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice”，所以选项B与原文相反；选项C过度概括；选项D原文的self-fu

33、lfillment是指错误的概念，即bookish excellence。第37题：参考答案：D答案解析：精析选D。本题为推理题。从文章的第一段“Yet mental hospitals are filled with patients who have all of the properly lettered certificates.”可以推断，作者认为拥有大学学历并不意味着一个人就很聪明。选项A原文没有提及；选项B与文章暗含意思无关；选项C是过度概括。第38题：参考答案：C答案解析：【精析】选C。本题为推理题。从文章第二段的第一句话“If you are happy, if you li

34、ve each moment for everything it is worth, then you are an intelligent person ”以及最后一段倒数第二句可以推断作者认为一个聪明的人知道如何避免沮丧，使生活过得更有价值。选项A和D原文没有提及；选项B是过度概括。第39题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】A。本题为综合归纳题。文章最后一段中作者提出，人人都会遇到困境，多数人都会沮丧难过，而聪明的人却能够在困境中避免沮丧和难过。由此可以推断困难只是每个人生活中都有的一部分。选项B与原文相反，本段的中心正是说沮丧和不快乐可以避免；选项C，不是逃避，而是经历它；选项D, aca

35、demic excellence在本文中不是人的智力的中心内容。第40题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为归纳题。从文章的最后一句话“Those who recognize problems as a human condition and dont donmeasure happiness by an absence of problems are the most intelligent kind of humans we know；also the most rare”可以判断最聪明的人是那些认识到困难和灾难是人生难免的问题，不是以是否遭遇困难和灾祸为衡量幸福标准的人，即与选项

36、B最为贴近。选项A和选项C都与原文意思相反；选项D看似正确，但仔细分析，从文中作者的语气看出，作者主要强调那些从意识上能够高度认识到的人才是聪明人，选项D中的人具备这样能力而没有达到认识的高度，与原文作者的原意还是有点出人。Part Vocabulary and Structure Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.
