3、ch. I cant wait for Bill to translate it for me. M:Dont worry, Mary, I can do the dishes before the machine starts to work. Q:What does the man mean? 此题为推断题。从对话中的“I can do the dishes before the machine starts to work.”可判断，男上想自己洗碗，这和“He will wash the dishes himself instead”意思相同。男士只是帮洗碗，而没有教女士如何操作机器，所

4、以排除A；选项C混淆原文，应该是Bill翻译。男士说用手洗碗，并没有说亲自操作洗碗机，所以选项D混淆了这个意思。第2题：参考答案：A答案解析：M:The doctor said if I kept smoking, I would increase my chances of having a heart attack. W:Did he suggest you reducing weight , too? Q:What does the woman think the man should also do? 此题为建议题型。从女士所问“Did he suggest you reducing

5、weight”可以判断女士是在建议男士减肥，所以正确答案为A。选项B“戒烟”只是医生对男士的建议；对话中的“reducing weight”并不是去称重，所以排除C；选项D与女士的话无关。第3题：参考答案：C答案解析：W:The people next door are making so much noise. I just cant concentrate. M:Why dont you stay at the library? Its much quiet there. Q:What does Tom mean? 此题为建议题型。女上说邻居吵闹，无法集中精力，男士(Tom)说为什么不呆在

6、图书馆里呢，由此可知男士是在建议她去图书馆，所以正确答案为C。选项A和B并不是建议的内容；选项D混淆了library和lab。第4题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:This is hopeless. These figures still dont add up right. Lets do the calculations over again. W:Yes ,but why not do them tomorrow? Its very late now. Q:What does the woman suggest they do? 此题为建议题型。男士抱怨老算不对数，女士用问句建议明天再算，因

7、为今天太晚了，所以正确答案为B。选项A和D表示今天就做，不合题意；选项C对话中并未提及。第5题：参考答案：A答案解析：M:To collect a data for my report, I need to talk to somwne who knows that small city very well. I was told that you lived there for quite a long time. W:Oh, I wish I could help, but I was only a child then. Q:What does the woman imply? 此题为推

8、断题型。男士想向女士了解一下有关城市的信息，但女士说希望能帮助，但那时她还很小，由此可以推断她对该城记得很少，选项A正是此意。选项B与对话所说事实相反；另两个选项在对话中没有提及。第6题：参考答案：B答案解析：M:Are you moving into a new house? Need a hand with those boxes? W:Thats okay. I can manage. They look big, but they arent very heavy actually. Q:What does the woman mean? 此题为推理题。男士提出帮忙搬箱子，女士说自己能

9、行，因为箱子并不重，由此可见她并不需要帮忙。选项A说男士早该帮忙，与原文不符；选项C和D与对话相反。第7题：参考答案：C答案解析：M:Its good you brought the books back. W:I thought you might need novels at the weekend. Thanks for letting me use them. Q:What do we know about the woman from the conversation? 此题为推断题型。从女士的“Thanks for letting me use them.”可以推断女士向男士借过书

10、，现在是在还书，所以正确答案为C。选项A颠倒了二人的角度；选项B中的ask for是要求，不是对方还书；选项D在对话中没有提到。第8题：参考答案：A答案解析：M:Do you want to turn on the air conditioner or open the I window? W:I love fresh air if you dont mind. Q:What can be inferred from the womans answer? 此题为推断题型。男士询问女士是开空调还是打开窗子，女士没有直接说，而是说她喜欢新鲜空气，由此可以推断她希望打开窗子，所以正确答案为A。选项B

11、正好与女士的意见相反；选项C和D在原文没有提及。第9题：参考答案：D答案解析：W:Hi, Michael. I can hardly recognize you, why are I you so dressed up today? Are you going to the theatre? M:No, actually, I just had an interview at the photo studio this morning. Q:What do we learn about Michael from this conversation? 此题为信息明示题。从男士的回答“I just

12、 had an interview”可知他是刚刚参加过面试，选项D正是该义的转述，故是正确答案。原文中的“photo studio”是面试的地点，而不是要去参观；选项A的时间不对；选项B和C在原文没有提到。第10题：参考答案：D答案解析：M:Good morning, what can I do for you? W:Id like to have my emergency brake fixed. The car rolls when I park it on the hill. Q:Where does the conversation most probably take place?

13、此题为推断题型。从对话中的“have my emergency brake fixed”和“The car rolls when I park it on the hill.”可推断女士在修车间维修她的车，所以正确答案是Do加油站一般不修车,A不对；对话中的“park”是停车，并不是公园，所以排除选项B；选项C混淆了对话中的“emergency brake”，是紧急刹车闸，而不是医院的急诊室。Section B Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you

15、san and forty two other students got wet and dirty while removing six tons of garbage from the river running across their city. They cleaned up the river as part of a week-long environmental camp. Like one in three of American rivers, this fiver is so polluted that its unsafe for swimming and fishin

16、g. Still, Susan, who has just completed her third summer on the fiver clean-up, sees a change in this fiver. Since we started three years ago, the fiver is getting a lot cleaner, She says. Environmental scientists praise the teenagers for removing garbage that can harm wild life. Water birds, for ex

17、ample, can choke on plastic bottle rings and get cut by scrap metal. Three years ago, when the clean-up started, garbage was everywhere. But this year the teenagers had to hunt for garbage. They turned the clean-up into a competition to see who could find most garbage and unload their boats fastest.

18、 By the end of the six-hour shift, they had removed enough garbage to fill more than two large trucks. Seeing all that garbage in the river makes people begin to care about environmental issues, Susan says. She hopes that when others read that she and her peers care enough to clean it up, maybe they

19、 will think twice before they throw garbage in the river. 第11题：参考答案：B答案解析：What does the passage tell us about American rivers? 此题为细节题。文中第三句提到的“Like one in three American rivers，this river is so Polluted ”说明，美国有1/3的河流被污染，所以正确答案为B。其他三个选项混淆了原文的数字。第12题：参考答案：D答案解析：What did the students find when they cam

20、e to the fiver this year? 此题为信息明示题。将文中第四句的“the river is getting a lot cleaner”和“the teenagers had to hunt for garbage”结合可以推断出河流已变得干净了。选项A和B与原文提及的清洁环境程度不符；选项C原文没有提及。第13题：参考答案：C答案解析：What is the expected reaction of the local people to the students efforts? 此题为综合推理题。从文章的最后一句“Maybe they think twice befo

21、re they throw garbage in the river”可以判断人们保护环境的意识将会增强，所以C为正确答案。选项A和B原文没有提及；原文大意是说人们在向河中扔垃圾时有所顾及了，而不是游泳或钓鱼之前，所以排除D。听力原文 Why do we cry? Can you imagine life without tears? Not only do tears keep your eyes lubricated, they also contain a substance that kills certain bacteria so they .cant infect your ey

22、es. Give up your tears and you lose this on the spot defense. Nor would you want to give up the flood of extra tears you produce when you get something physical or chemical into your eyes. Tears are. very good at washing this irritating stuff out. Another thing you couldnt do without your tears is c

23、ry, from joy, anger or sadness. Humans are the only animals that produce tears in response to emotions. As most people say a good cry makes them feel better. Many scientists, therefore, believe that crying somehow helps us cope with emotional situations. Tear researcher, William Frey, is trying to f

24、igure out how it happens. One possibility, he says, is that tears discharge certain chemicals from your body, chemicals that build up during stress. when people talk about crying it out, I think that might actually be what they are doing, He says. If Frey is fight, what do you think will happen to p

25、eople who restrain their tears? Boys, for example, cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach their teenage years. And we all cry a lot less now than we did as babies. Could it possibly be that we face less stress? Maybe weve found other ways to deal with it, or maybe we just feel em

26、barrassed. 第14题：参考答案：B答案解析：Whats the topic discussed in this passage? 此题为主旨题。本文的第一句话“Why do we cry?”点明了文章的话题，即人们为什么哭，所以B为正确答案。选项A和C是原文的反例；本文讲的是眼泪的功能，不是眼泪的产生过程，所以排除D。第15题：参考答案：D答案解析：What is Winifred trying to find out? 此题为细节题。文中的“Tear researcher，Winifred，is trying to figure out how it happens.”说明试图发现

27、的是前一句的内容：“crying somehow helps us cope with emotional situations”，即选项D。其他三个选项都只是说明了问题的一个方面，不能概括试验的目的。第16题：参考答案：C答案解析：What does the passage say about teenage boys and girls? 此题为细节辨认题。“Boys, for example, cry only about a quarter as often as girls once they reach teenage years，”，选项C“girls cry four time

28、s as often as boys”正是表达了这个意思，所以是正确答案。原文的数字只是男女之间的比较，不是单方的数字，所以排除选项A和B；原文没有提及婴儿，所以排除D。第17题：参考答案：A答案解析：Whats the difference between human beings and other animals when shedding tears? 从文中的“Humans are the only animals that produce tears in response to emotions”可以判断人类与动物的区别在于只有人类才能通过眼泪表达感情，所以正确答案为A。其他三个

29、选项转换了原文的比较点。听力原文 Imagine this: you wake up each morning to find your sister lying beside you, to get dressed and fie your shoes. You use one hand and she uses another. You do everything else together too, even sitting on the same chair at lunch and riding on the same bicycle. Thats what life is like

30、 for the six-year-old Betty and Abby. Like most twins, the two girls look very much alike. But unlike most twins, Betty and Abby share parts of the same body. Twins like Betty and Abby are rare. Only about forty sets are born in the United States each year. Few survive as long as Betty and Abby. Tha

31、ts because twins often share vital organs like a heart or brain. These shared organs are often badly shaped and may not be strong enough to support both twins. But Betty and Abby each has her own head, heart and stomach which function normally. The girls share three or four lungs, which provide plen

32、ty of oxygen for both twins. Most of their completely shared organs lie below the waist. Betty and Abby live relatively normal lives. They attend a regular school and each does her own school work. They prefer to do some projects together, though, for example, to cut out paper dolls. One twin holds

33、the paper, while the other uses the scissors. But sometimes the girls dont want to do the same thing. For example, sometimes they want to play with different toys. What do they do, then? We toss the coin, says Abby. 第18题：参考答案：B答案解析：In what aspect do Betty and Abby differ from most twins? 本题为信息明示题。根据

34、文中的“but unlike most twins , Betty and Abby share parts of the same body”可以判断出正确答案。选项A所说的掷硬币只是说她们在解决分歧时的做法，并不是她们与别的双胞胎最主要的区别；选项C在原文没有提到；选项D为强干扰项，事实是原文提到这两个双胞胎连体的部分并不是身体的主要器官，所以排除D。第19题：参考答案：A答案解析：What does the passage tell us about twins who share parts of the same body? 此题为推断题。从“Few survive as long

35、as Betty and Abby”和原文所告知的这两个双胞胎只有6岁可以推断，一般的连体婴儿都活不长，所以正确答案为A。其他三个选项原文都没有提到。第20题：参考答案：A答案解析：What does the passage say about the education of the twin girls? 本题为细节题。原文的“they attend a regular school”可以确定答案为A。其他三个选项原文都没有提及。Part II Reading Comprehension Directions: There are 4 passages in this part.

36、 passage is followed by some questions or un- finished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A、B、C and D.

37、 we prefer to be at 3 feet or an arms length away from others可以判断如果离得太近，美国人会感到不舒服，从而退缩以保持距离，即选项D。其他三个选项都不表示退缩。第22题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为主旨题。文章的第一句为全文的主题句，大意是美国人以为自己的语言和手势世界通用，而这正是一种文化上的自我中心主义，所以答案为A。其他三个选项都是具体内容，不具备概括性。第23题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为细节题。文章第五段指出，在国外美国人习惯居住在讲英语的旅馆和饭店，总是向讲英语的人询问信息，生意上的交往都要通

38、过翻译完成。所有这些表示，由于语言障碍，美国人在国外就会变得消息闭塞。选项A和C原文没有提及；选项D不是问题的关键。第24题：参考答案：C答案解析：【精析】选C。本题为推理题。从文章最后一段第二句“we are slowly beginning to realize that our proper role in the world is changing”可以判断美国人的cultural blindness and linguistic ignorance已经开始limit their role in world affairs。选项A和B原文没有提及；选项D，原文没有讲到美元地位的削弱是由

39、语言问题引起的。第25题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为推理题。由于美国人的“cultural blindness”和“linguistic ignorance”，他们在国际事务中的作用已经开始受到影响，同时也给美国人带来了很多其他的不利之处，所以作者的目的是要让美国人意识到“it is ime to get acquainted with other cultures.”。选项A和C原文没有提及；选项B不是文章的主旨。第26题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为推理题。由第一段的第六句话Fashion myths have led women to believe tha

40、t they are more beautiful or sophisticated for wearing heels可以推断女人对高跟鞋的欺诈本质视而不见是出于想完善外表的强烈欲望。选项A，原文对于高跟鞋的作用是反语；选项B的status原文没有提及；选项C只是细节之一，不能概括全部原因。第27题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为推理题。从全文观点和常识可以推断作者阐述高跟鞋的肯定的一面，其实是带有讽刺意味的。选项B，原文嘲笑的对象是鞋；选项C，原文for the sake of fairness实际上是引出否定内容；选项D与选项C一样，原文不是讲正面特点。第28题：参考答案：C

41、答案解析：【精析】选C。本题为推理题。此处用babies来表达女士对高跟鞋的喜爱，第二段作者通过讽刺的语气表达了他的意图：高跟鞋对身体有害，可女士们依然喜欢穿高跟鞋，穿着这双宝贝只要在院子里走上一圈就没必要请草坪养护专家了。可见，作者是为表达女士对高跟鞋的钟爱，故选C。选项A和B原文没有提及。第29题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为主旨题。文章第一段最后一句和第三段第一句“wearing high heels is harmful to ones physical health”说明作者反对高跟鞋是因为它们对妇女的健康有损害，并且作者在文章的最后一句还不厌其烦地列举了高跟鞋的种种危

42、害，所以正确答案为B。选项A和D只是补充说明其害处，不是主要内容；选项C原文没有提及。第30题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为推理题。可以采用排除法来选出正确答案。选项B和D太绝对，原文只讲高跟鞋，不能由此推及所有时髦的东西；选项C，文章只说害处，没有讲如何消除。所以最后只剩下选项A，即作者希望妇女能够认识时尚的本质。第31题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为细节题。从文章第一句the depressing state of literacy可以判断作者所展示的美国人的阅读能力是不容乐观的，即rather bleak。其他三个选项都是积极的，与原文相反。第32题：参考答案

43、：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为细节题。文章第二段句首“But my own worry today”引出问题，说明作者主要关心的是中产阶级的阅读能力和阅读习惯。选项A,原文的elementary指的是基础的能力，不是小学；选项B原文已经否定，不是主要内容；选项C只是问题的一个方面。第33题：参考答案：C答案解析：【精析】选C。本题为细节题。文章第二段第四句“The new form of part-reading, of part-perception against background distraction, renders impossible certain essential

44、acts of apprehension and concentration”可以推断青少年边读边听音乐看电视的形式分散了注意力，导致了不能很好地理解文章的内容，所以答案为选项C。选项A是作为原因解释青少年的阅读能力的；选项B，原文是假设，没有提及对艺术的实际情况；选项D，原文是讲不能在没有影响的环境下阅读。第34题：参考答案：A答案解析：【精析】选A。本题为推理题。文章第二段最后一句“most important tribute any human being can pay to a poem or a piece of prose he or she really loves, whic

45、h is to learn it by heart”说明欣赏一首诗歌的最好的表现就是“to be able to appreciate it and memorize it”，所以正确答案为A。其他三个选项原文没有提及。第35题：参考答案：B答案解析：精析选B。本题为推理题。综合最后一段第一句“Under these circumstances, the question of what future there is for the arts of reading is a real one”和最后一句“No one in the book industry say with any con

46、fidence what will happen on the book as weve known it”可以判断作者对阅读艺术的前景是不确定的。其他三个选项都不表示“不确定”。第36题：参考答案：D答案解析：【精析】选D。本题为细节题。文章的最后一句“venturing into the unknown for reasons that were to varying degrees economic and nationalistic ”说明探险者进人不明之地的目的是“to pursue commercial and state interests”.其他三个选项都只是说明了问题的一个侧

47、面，不能作为主要目的。第37题：参考答案：B答案解析：【精析】选B。本题为推断题。从文章第三段的第三句话“Could it be that science, which has long played a minor role in exploration, is at last destined to take a leading role?”可以判断目前各国发起大规模的太空探险活动都是为了科学研究。选项A是现代科学研究的特点；选项C原文没有提及；选项D，原文是short-term financial return。第38题：参考答案：A答案解析：精析选A。本题为细节题。根据文章最后一段第二
