18、oices of A, B, C and D, and mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO. You have thirty seconds to preview the questions. 1 【听力原文】 Chinese scientists have discovered fossils of a feathered, four-winged dinosaur, which they say give new clues to the origins of flight.

19、d about one hundred and twenty-five million years ago and was less than a meter long. The creature couldnt actually fly but would have used its four wings and long feathery tail to help it glide from tree to tree as flying squirrels do today. Its relative of the dinosaur Micro-Raptor. The discovery

20、could change ideas about how birds evolved. Most experts thought they came from dinosaurs that lived on the ground and developed feathery limbs, which they flapped so they could run faster. But this latest find supports an alternative theory that birds evolved from animals that lived in trees. This

21、was first suggested around 1915, but theres been little evidence to support it until now. 1 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。题目中的 significance是 “重大意义 ”的意思。事实上，新闻中的一开始就谈到 “ 他们称这为研究鸟类的起源提供了新的线索 ”。而且在后面讨论的就是鸟是从生活在地上的恐龙还是从生活在树上的动物进化而来的问题。因此， A为正确选项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节判断题。选项中的各项表述的内容都在新闻中出现过，但是只有 D项的内

22、容是来源于以前大家的推测，认为鸟类起源于生活在陆地上的恐龙，它们的四肢后来长出了羽毛，这样它们拍打起来就能跑得更快。这点并不是所发现的化石提供的，是专家的推测，不能成为化石的特征，而其他项都是有科学依据的，因此选 D项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 3 【听力原文】 Venezuela has formally requested that the United States extradite a former CIA operator of Cuban origin. Luis Posada Carriles has Venezuelan citizenship. He is wanted f

23、or masterminding a blast in a Cuban jetliner that killed 76 people back in 1976. Posada Carriles, now 77, is in the United States, where he entered from Panama.

24、after she left office. Venezuela is asking U.S. authorities to ensure that the extradition takes place very quickly. 3 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节判断题。这段新闻听起来是有一定的难度，因为其中出现了很多的国家名称，而且这段新闻的内容似乎也不是很为人熟知。但是在新闻开始和结束都提到了委内瑞拉提出的引渡的要求，那么正确答案就应该是 D项了。 “路易斯 波萨达 卡里莱斯现为委内瑞拉公民 ”这句话更可以证明我们的推测。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 4 【听力原文】 Theres

25、great excitement that Ukraine is about to play in its first ever World Cup finals. This country has never qualified for a major football tournament before. It was only in the last few years that Ukraine burst onto the world stage. After the Soviet Union collapsed, some of its best players left for R

27、nurov, has said that employers should ensure that everyone is able to see the game. Thousands of people are expected to gather in the capitals main square to watch the event live on a giant screen. 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 地点推理题。新闻中没有我们常常习惯听到的 “这里是 xxx从 xxx发回的报道 ”，那么我们要注意新闻报道中一些的细微之处。本段新闻中有一句话对我们很有帮助，尤其其中使

28、用了 “here”一词，而在结尾谈到预计众多球迷将在首都广场看球，所以综合以上信息，最佳的答案应该是 B项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 5 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。本题的难度不大，是简单地对原文中的意思的复现，但是需要稍加注意的是，题目和选项中都使用同义替换的方式把某些关键的词 做了改动，但是不影响原来意思的表达，所以据 “这使得两国成为了足球竞争的对手。因此在这儿有很多人都因为俄罗斯丢掉了进军世界杯的资格而高兴 ”，可知 B项是正确答案。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 6 【听力原文】 Twins born joined at the head have gone home to

29、 Guatemala five months after they were separated by medical experts in the US. Doctors are optimistic that the baby girls will now lead normal lives. The 17-month-old twin girls finally went home to a new life in Guatemala after spending the last five months in a Los Angeles hospital. The twins Mari

30、a Teresa Quiej Alvarez and Maria de Jesus had been born joined at the head. Their plight captured the attention of a childrens charity, which organized their trip to the US.

31、ervices to perform the complex 23-hour operation. Charities and public donations took care of the two million US dollar bill. Staff who looked after the twins during their stay were sad to see them leave. 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 数字判断题。 A项是这对双胞胎孩子父亲的年龄， D项则是她们在医院停留的大概时间， B项在新闻中没有提到过，因此，本题的正确答案应该是 C项。 【知识模块

32、】 新闻听力 7 【听力原文】 Medical researchers have accused the manufacturers of baby milk formula of violating an international marketing code by giving free samples and gifts to health workers to promote their products in poor African countries. In a report published in the British Medical Journal, researche

33、rs in Africa accused companies of having ignored the code in countries such as Togo and Burkina Faso. The researchers found that the code had been violated by 40 products, many made by national and international manufacturers like Danone and Nestle. Some companies didnt include a statement about the

34、 health benefits of breast-feeding or instructions for the appropriate preparation or storage of formula milk, or a warning against the health hazards of inappropriate use. And there were no instructions to help mothers make up the milk. 7 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节题。新闻的导语部分就告诉我们： “医学研究人员指责一些婴儿配方奶厂商违反了国际市场规

35、定 ” 接下来又说： “研究人员 指责婴儿配方奶厂商无视多哥、布基纳法索等国家的有关法规。 ”两句表述都出现了核心的单词code，所以选项 D是正确的选项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。这道题判断的主要依据是新闻在结尾部分的表述，即“有些厂家没有在产品上说明母乳喂养的好处，或没有提供婴儿配方奶的正确配制、保存方法，或者没有标明不当使用产品会危及健康的警告。这些厂家也没有指导母亲们如何配制婴儿配方奶。 ”和原新闻对照， C项的相似程度最低，但是它的意思是符合的；相反， B项只添加了一个词 bilingual，但是与原意不符，所以它才是要选择的答案。 【

36、知识模块】 新闻听力 9 【听力原文】 A court in the United States has ruled that the hamburger chain McDonalds was not responsible for the health problem of overweight children who eat at its restaurants. The judge said lawyers acting for the children had failed to show that McDonalds products presented a danger unk

37、nown to consumers. This is the first case of its kind to go through the American courts. The outcome is a victory for the fast food industry, which is braced for a wave of tobacco-style litigation over the health consequences of poor diet. The action was mounted on behalf of a group of overweight ch

38、ildren suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure and other diet-related ailments. They blamed their problems on the fat laden hamburgers and chips theyd regularly eaten at McDonalds restaurants in New York. 9 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节推理题。新闻在开始公布了一项法院裁定的结果，即汉堡包连锁店麦当劳不必对在其餐厅进食的超重儿童的健康问题负责。其原因紧接在这一句的后面 “法官

39、说，儿童方面的代表律师无法证明麦当劳的产品对消费者是一种未知的危险 ”。也就是说法官认为消费者应该知道快餐食品的利弊，于是责任也不应该由快餐企业来承担，选项 C最接近这样的意思。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节推理题。新闻结尾的表述很清楚地告诉我们，这起诉讼是代表一群肥胖儿童的。 “他们把自己的健康问题归咎于他们经常在纽约麦当劳餐厅所吃的高脂肪的汉堡包和薯条。 ”选项中四项针对不同的内容，文中只涉及 C项，其他选项纯属无中生有，从常理判断也不能成为起诉的理由，所以选 C项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 11 【听力原文】 Former Deputy Presid

40、ent of South Africa, Jacob Zuma, is to be charged with corruption. Mr. Zuma was sacked by President Thabo Mbeki last week after being implicated in a fraud trial.

41、 face a trial that could end in the prison. His people, especially the Zulus, are behind him. They think its all a set-up to get rid of the man they wanted to be the next leader of South Africa. But a judge, two weeks ago, accused Zuma of probable corruption in a multi-billion-pound arms scandal. 11

42、 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。本题最恰当的答案应该是 B项。因为在新闻的导语部分就交待了 “南非前副总统雅各布 祖马面临腐败起诉 ” 。新闻在最后又涉及到了他被指控和一起军火交易丑闻有联系，但是并没有确定他参与了非法军火交易，所以不能选 C项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 态度判断题。新闻中在表示祖鲁人对雅各布 祖马的态度时，使用了 behind，意思是支持他。而且他们认为： “ 这次事件在他们看来是事先设计好的 ” 换句话说，就是他们相信祖马是无辜的。选项中表达此义的是 B项它也就是答案了。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 13 【听力原文】 Jap

43、ans super-fast maglev train has broken the worlds train speed record previously set by itself.

45、maglev to three hundred and forty-eight miles per hour. Now, after reaching three hundred and sixty-one miles or five hundred and eighty-one kilometers per hour, theyre celebrating another world record for the super-fast train. 13 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 数字判断题。答对这道题的关键是要注意数字后面的单位，新闻中出现 kilometer及 mile两种单位，列

46、车的速度达 581千米每小时或 361英里每小时，故选 A。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 14 【听力原文】 OPEC has decided this was not the time for cutting petroleum output. Energy ministers here didnt have the stomach to cut back production at a time when crude oil prices were reaching historic highs on the international exchanges. It was feared tha

47、t cuts in the output would send prices even higher and dent global e-conomic growth.

Venezuelan-born Ramirez, better known as Carlos the jackal, led a terror attack against OPECs Vienna headquarters in 1975. 14 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。本题考的是对新闻主旨的把握，这时

49、我们要关注新闻的导语部分，它相当于阅读段落的主题句。此外在新闻中还出现了 “ 似乎没有人对石油产量保持不变而感到惊讶 ”这样的语句，所以我们可以确定正确答案应该是 D项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 15 【正确答 案】 B 【试题解析】 态度判断题。新闻的前半部分都是在讨论石油输出国组织对石油产量问题做出的决定，而后半部分则出现了另一个焦点人物，即委内瑞拉总统乌戈 查韦斯，他发表了具有很高政治意味的演讲，号召石油输出国组织应该成为一个反对帝国主义的组织，因此，正确选项是 B项。 【知识模块】 新闻听力 16 【听力原文】 The president has signed the first ever legislation outlawing certain kinds of SPAM messages that plague computer users with unwanted junk e-mail.
