2、lse. There are ten questions in this part of the test, two points for each question.第1题：参考答案：B答案解析：听力原文 Nuclear energy is released at the suns center as high energy gamma radiation, a form of electromagnetic radiation like light and radio waves, only of very much shorter wavelength. 比较结构的理解。 本题要求听者分

3、辨清所比较之物及其对比关系。原文谈到Nuclear energy(核能)时，将其解释为high energy gamma radiation(高能伽马辐射)，像光波和无线电波一样属于一种光砌寸线，只是其波长更短一些。由此可见，题干说光波和无线电波的波长短得多的说法是错误的。 解题关键 正确理解句子结构。第2题：参考答案：A答案解析：听力原文 Hunger is not caused by a global scarcity of food. The world can easily produce enough to feed everyone, without any government

4、support. When people go hungry, it is because they do not have access to foodsometimes for reasons of war or politics, most often because of poverty. 因果关系判断。 关于饥谨问题，文章认为“Hunger is not caused by a global scarcity of food”即“饥饿不是由于全球粮食匮乏造成的”，而且进一步说“.it is because they do not have access to foodsometime

5、s for reasons of war or politics, most often because of poverty”即“饥饿问题是因为人们由于战争、政治、贫穷等原因而无法得到食物”，显然文章认为饥谨问题与粮食供应的畅通与否有关。因此，题干说解决饥谨问题需要消除粮食供应的障碍而非提高粮食产量的说法是正确的。 解题关键 掌握表因果关系的信号词，如文中“not caused.”，“because.”等。第3题：参考答案：B答案解析：听力原文 A documentary is an arrangement of non-fictional films, structured to supp

6、ort the preexisting ideas of the filmmaker. Only the terminally stupid and the childishly innocent imagine that anyone making a documentary film aspires to objective truth. 观点态度的找寻和判断。 关于documentary(记录片)，文章认为这种影片“structured to support the pre existing ideas of the filmmaker”即“就是要迎合支持制片商的先入之见”，文章还认为只

7、有愚蠢，幼稚的制片商才会使记录片“.aspires to objective truth”即“追求客观事实”。由此可见，题干认为记录片是制片商“mix his preconceptions with objective truth”即“将其先入之见和客观事实融合”的说法与原文不符，因此是错误的。 解题关键 掌握同义词的替换。如文中preexisting idea与题干中preconception同义。第4题：参考答案：B答案解析：听力原文 Too often, Japans conservative and nationalist leaders have managed to spot th

8、e forces of change more quickly than their liberal domestic counterparts, and have used those changes to seize the advantages and preserve their power. 比较结构的理解。 本题要求将conservative and nationalist leaders和liberal democrats的政治立场进行比较。根据原文“Japans conservative and nationalist leaders have managed to spot

9、the forces of change more quickly than their liberal domestic counterparts”即“日本保守党和民族主义者比自民党更能发现变化的力量”，由此可知，自民党不能很快地发现变化的力量，但与题干所言自由民主党更倾向于遵守其原则含义不相符，因此题干的说法是错误的。 解题关键 掌握词语的概念。the forces of change(变化的力量)的概念与 principles(原则)不相同。第5题：参考答案：A答案解析：听力原文 As a super hero in her own right, Xena is a female pig

10、let cloned from fetal-pig skin cells. She may prove to be more than the latest addition to the biotech clone farm. Because of similarities between porcine and human organs, the techniques that made Xena may eventually create a supply of genetically modified pig livers that would be acceptable to the

11、 human immune system. 语义逻辑推理判断。 原文认为“Because of similarities between porcine and human organs, the techniques that made Xena may eventually create a supply of genetically modified pig livers that would be acceptable to the human immune system.”即“鉴于猪和人的器官有相似性，创造了Xena的技术必将创造出可以为人类免疫系统接受的转基因猪肝脏”，由此可推断由

12、于猪和人内脏器官有相似性，未来技术将会使得猪的肝脏移植到人身上。因此，题干的说法是正确的。 解题关键 同义词替换。本题需掌握porcine与题干中pig同义。第6题：参考答案：A答案解析：?

23、lfway measures tike the shuttle. 因果关系的判断。 根据原文，人类梦想去火星探险，但是“confronted with the cost.presidents. have flinched and resorted to halfway measures like the shuttle”即“面临经费问题，美国总统们畏缩了，不得不做出妥协，先发展航天飞机”。由此可见，发展航天飞机只是人类去火星探险梦想的妥协。只有选项c符合这种判断，因此该项的说法是正确的。 解题关键 掌握因果关系的表达法，可快速理解原文。文中使用了过去分词短语 (confronted with)

24、的形式来表示因果关系。第12题：参考答案：D答案解析：听力原文 More difficult for foreign managers to grasp are the intricacies of culture, such as the advertising staple of humor.

25、gacy of traditional Chinese opera and verbal sparring. For national campaigns, the challenge is to tap into a universal interest. 比较结构的识别和理解。 关于中国的幽默，原文将南方和北方作了比较。发现南方幽默“more slap stick and physical”即“更为打闹滑稽，强调形体动作”，而北方则“love clever wordplays”即“更喜欢口齿伶俐的文字游戏”。由此可见，只有选项d的说法与原文含义相符，因此，选项d的说法是正确的。 解题关键

26、1) 掌握比较表达的结构，本文在平行结构中使用反义词，以提起读者注意：2) 掌握近义词替换，原文中wordplays与选项中verbal act (言辞)意思相近。第13题：参考答案：C答案解析：听力原文 Its amazing what you can see when you dont look.

27、using receptors in the eyes center, which are more sensitive to dim light. So canny stargazers try to see the wonders of the cosmos out of the corners of their eyes. 比较结构的识别和理解。 同原文“they avoid using receptors in the eyes center, which are more sensitive to dim light”比较中看，显然选项c的说法正好与此相背，因此，选项c是正确答案。

28、解题关键 掌握所比较的对象之间的关系是该题解题的关键。第14题：参考答案：C答案解析：听力原文 Swedens rejection of the European Unions common currency was a coldly rational statement of mistrust in the euro.

29、y of big countries like France and Germany, who have bent the euros rules to suit themselves. 事实细节的理解和判断。 将各选项中关键词与原文对比，发现选项a的说法可与原文第一句“Swedens rejection of the European Unions common currency.”相对应；选项 b的说法可与原文“.big countries like France and Germany, who have bent the euros rules to suit themselves”相

30、对应：选项d的说法可与原文“It distanced itself from the stagnant economic performance of the euro zone”相对应；只有选项c的说法在原文中找不到对应，因此该项的说法是错误的。 解题关键 掌握同义词的替换可快速解题。如原文中rejection与选项中 refuse同义；bent the rule to suit themselves与tailor the rule to their own benefit同义，均指为自己利益而调整规则；sluggish与stagnant同义，均指经济的不景气。第15题：参考答案：A答案解析

31、：听力原文 Stem cells are undeveloped human cells that can grow into many or all of the different specialized cells in the human body. Although stem cells have been harvested from adults, the most versatile stem cells come from embryos. The main source of embryos is fertility clinics. Vitro fertilization

32、, the process that produces test-tube babies, involves the fertilization of eggs to produce embryos outside the womans body. 语义逻辑关系的识别。 本题要求识别原文的逻辑结构。原文主要讨论的是stem cells(干细胞)，如干细胞的定义、起源等，fertility clinics(人工受精)虽有提及，但不属于主要讨论的话题。因此选项a的说法符合题义，是正确答案。 解题关键 掌握主题及支持性细节是解题的关键。本文主题是干细胞，支持性细节是干细胞的定义(原文第一句)及起源(

33、第二句至最后一句)。显然，选项b、c和d的说法均围绕这一框架。第16题：参考答案：B答案解析：? An index is a statistical composite representing the value of all stocks in a certain market segment.
