36、e，意思也就有差别了。所以选 D项而不选 A项。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 事实细节题。在经过 长时间的讨论之后，他们并没有找到一部共同愿意接受的电影，而妻子在突然之间发现了电视将有一场还不错的棒球比赛，丈夫也不反对看这样的比赛，所以最后的结果是他们留在家里看电视了。因此， B项就是正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 推理判断题。 4个选项的内容看上去都有可能，我们只能根据对话逐一排除。 A错在男士没有这种感觉。 B、 C没有相应的限制词，显得太过绝对。D项则恰当地表现了女士性格的一方面，这一点从开始厌倦看电视，到挑选电影场所及内容

37、都有所体现，所以应是最合适的推理 判断。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 M: I have been studying too much and need a change. So Ive just made plans to go away during January break. W: Really? Where are you going? M: Im planning to visit New Mexico. W: My sister and I vacationed there last year and we had a great time. M: Did you ge

38、t into Albuquerque? W: Sure. We were skiing there. M: Is it far from the mountains? W: Not at all. You see, even though Albuquerque is on a high plateau, there are even higher mountains near it.

39、irty minutes away, I guess I should take my ice skates and my skis. W: Definitely. M: I heard that the weather there is great. W: It is.

41、e是这位女士去年去新墨西哥州时到过的地点之一，所以选 D项。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 推理判断题。这个问题需要我们在听懂原文的基础上逐一判断下面的推理是否正确。 A项中的 manytimes无法根据对话得出，所以排除； B项 可根据一开始男士话语中的 “studying too much and need a change”和 “during January break”来推翻； D项比较容易判断，如果他有亲戚在那儿的话，他就不会对女士的介绍这么关注了。所以，分析判断之后， C项是唯一经得起推敲的表述，男士也曾提到要带冰鞋和滑雪板，女士提醒他一开始不要进行剧烈运

42、动等等，这些都可证明他是比较爱运动的。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节判断题。女士在介绍 Albuquerque的情况时，她这样说道：“那里不潮湿，温度适中，但是你需要注意的是那里的高海拔 ”，由此，我们可以想到那里最大的麻烦就是高海拔了，所以 C项是答案。 【知识模块】 听力 8 【听力原文】 M: Hi, Lynn.

Then well meet on campus three times for reviews and exams. M: It sounds pretty non-traditional to me. But

45、 I guess it makes sense, considering how many students have jobs. It must really help with their schedules. W: You know, 80% of all psychology majors were employed. Thats why they came up with the program. M: The only thing is: doesnt it seem impersonal though? I mean, I miss having class discussion

46、s and hearing what other people think. W: Well, I guess thats why phone contacts are important. Anyway, its an experiment. Maybe Ill end up hating it. M: Maybe. But Ill be curious to see how it works up. 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节复现题。对话开始时，男士便直接说昨天在登记处见到了女士。对应选项，自然正确答案应该是 B项。此题难度较小，尽管下面对话中出现了 coupe， telev

47、ision， lesson等词，但是造成的迷惑性并不是很大，而且其余选项在发音上和正确答案也毫不相似，所以容易排除。关键在于开始时能够迅速进入状态，抓住关键词。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 态度判断题。男士在表达他对这门课程设置的看法时说到： “鉴于很多学生都有工作，因此这样的安排还是有道理的，也的确对他们的时间安排有帮助。 ”根据他的话，我们可以断定，时间安排上的灵活性是它的主要优点。所以，正确答案应该是 C项。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。女士在向男士介绍这门课程的设置时，谈到了该课程的一些特点，例如他们只需要观看 12

48、周的系列教学节目。而且所在的系会在不同的地点一天重复播放几次。接下来还说到该课程需 要他们学生之间相互通过电话联系，在校园里他们需要 3次见面复习和考试。综合以上特点，选项 A是唯一正确的答案。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 态度判断题。经过讨论男士也基本接受了该课程的设置方式，但是他在最后表现出一点遗憾。他说： “我很怀念课堂讨论和倾听别人的想法的方式。 ”他的意思就是新的课程设置会限制学生相互之间的交流，由此，我们应该选择 B项为答案。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 There are many islands in the sea.
