At the end of each conversation , five questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken ONCE ONLY. After each question t

31、here will be a ten-second pause. During the pause, you should read the four choices 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. 2 【听力原文】 M: Hello, is that Shirley? W: Yes, whos this? George? M: That is right. W: W

32、ell, you are up bright and early this morning! M: The early bird catches the worm! W: Thats what they say! So what are your plans for today?

33、long if they get up in time. M: What? Are they still not up yet? W: Awful, isnt it? But they were up till late last night, playing cards. Ill see if I can get them up in a few minutes.

M: But dont you need to check with James and Michael first? W: All right, I will call you back to confirm the time and place.

35、2 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节判断题。对话中引用了一句谚语 “早起的鸟儿有虫吃 ”表示凡事应该早做准备。明白了这句话的意思，前两项自然就可以排除。 D项所涉及的内容是 James打算做的，和 George没有直接的关系，所以也不符合题意，正确答案应该是 C项。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节判断题。 George和 Shirley打算去购物，但是没有最终确定见面的时间和地点，主要是由于 James和 Michael昨晚打牌到深夜，所以他们现在还在睡懒觉， Shirley在他们没醒前不能确定他们是否会一起去， 也不能确定时间，所以需要再商定。由此，我们应该

36、选择 D项。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 时间数字题。对话中虽然提到的时间不多，但是需要把它们相对应的活动一一对应起才不会选错。 11： 00 a.m是 Shirley建议会面的时间，而 3：00 p m才是 James预定游船的时间。所以，答案应该是 C项。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 M: Hey Linda, did you get that letter about the new options for food service next year? W: Not yet. Are there a lot of changes? M: There

37、 sure are. Instead of paying one fee to cover all meals for the whole school year, we are now able to choose how many meals a week we want. W: Thats a big change Tom. So whats the deal for those who do eat at school all time? M: Its better for them too. Because the more meals you contract, the cheap

38、er each one is. W: I see. M: I decided to go with the ten-meal plan. I never eat breakfast and I often go away on weekends. So me ten-meal plan gives me lunch and dinner every weekday at a fairly low price. W: And what about the weekends when you are on campus? M: well, there are often guests on cam

39、pus at weekends. So they allow you to buy single meals on a walk-in basis on Saturdays. The price per meal is much higher that way, but it is still favourable generally. W: Oh, I guess Ill have to sit down and figure out my eating pattern so I can get the best deal. 5 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。男士在对话的开始部

40、分介绍了学校这项新举措的特点，其核心就是 “我们现在可以选择一周我们想要 在这儿吃几顿饭 ”，题目问到的正是其主要特点，所以我们应该选择 B项。 A选项的表述应是原有就餐收费制度的特点，而不是新制度的。 C和 D两项与对话意思不符。所以都不能成为正确选项。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节复现题。题目的问题和对话中女士的问题在实质上是完全一致的。所以我们判断答案应该按男士的回答来作为标准。选项 D虽然在用词上和原话稍有变动，但是 pay less基本保留了 cheaper的含义，所以它也就是我们要选的正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确 答案】 A 【试题解析

41、】 细节判断题。对话中双方就周末用餐的问题进行了讨论男士提到周末时会有很多外面的客人来就餐，所以他们可以按 a walk-in basis on Saturdays来付账，这也就是说周末是可以每次就餐时单独付账的。选项 A中有 walk-in basis的原词复现，为正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 8 【听力原文】 M: Hi, Mary. Do you want to start writing a lab report after we finish this experiment? W: I cant. In fact I need to finish early because Im

42、going over to the psychology department to talk to Professor Smith about a job opening. M: You mean a job on campus? W: Yeah. And it sounds pretty interesting. It involves helping with your study on learning style. M: Yeah. I know thats an area of expertise. W: Right. Anyway for her study shes takin

43、g some high school students who arent doing very well in their classes and testing them to find out what their learning styles are. Then tutors, people like me, will work with them and present materials to them in their particular learning style. M: Are you getting paid for this? W: Im sure well get

44、 something though, probably not much. Anyway it doesnt matter to me; I just want to have some hands-on experience. M: Yeah. Do you have any idea what the schedule is like? W: Late afternoon for tutoring. After all, the kids are in regular classes until three thirty. M: Actually thats perfect for me.

45、 W: Then come along. We will save the lab report for later. But wed better make sure we do a good job on our experiment first. M: Yeah. First things first. 8 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。原文没有提及 chemistry，因此 A、 B都可排除。他们其实是在讨论 Professor Smith主持的另外一个试验给他们带来新的工作机遇的问题。对话中曾经出现了 job opening这样的词，和选项 D贴近，所以它也是此题的理想

46、 答案。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。对话中男士问到了女士参加这样的一项工作有关报酬的问题。女士的回答是： “我相信还是能拿到一些酬劳的，虽然可能不多。但是这对我来说并不重要；我只想获取一些第一手的资料。 ”符合这一意思的只有选项B，因此它才是正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。女士在解释工作的性质是曾经提到过这一点，她在对话中的解释是 “提供符合他们独特的学习风格的材料 ”，而在此之前，女士在介绍Professor Smith的研究时，也说到了 “帮你研究学习风格 ”。综合这两点，能够概括它们意思的选项就是

47、正确的选项，所以应该选 C项。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 推理判断题。此处的推断其实并不难，因为在两人对话的结束部分他们有了一个共识，那就是要把手头的实验先要完成。此外，我们用排除法也可以比较容易地选出正确答案。选项 A在对话开始时就被女士否定了，结尾又用到了 save the lab report for later，所以可以排除。 C项不符合步骤没有得到工作前是不能做的； B项则曲解原对话表述的意思，故除 D项外都不能选。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 In our system of education today, examination is

48、 a common feature. Our present education system has often been criticized as too examination-oriented. However, one must remember that in offices and other areas of work, examinations still feature clearly. There is no doubt that the dread and influence of examinations cause much preparation work. S
