The Philippines is in a unique position to benefit from the global demand for English education. American colonialism

14、 brought the English language here in the early twentieth century. Although it is not the native language of most Filipinos, English is an official language here. More than 60 years after independence, Filipinos still speak English with a strong American accent. Today, the Philippines markets itself

15、 as the worlds third-largest English-speaking country. The truth is there are actually more people who speak English in the Philippines than the national language. English is learned even outside of school because a lot of the communications are done in English, public signs are in English, televisi

21、点出越来越多的亚洲学生开始倾向于选择菲律宾这个离他们祖国更近的讲英语的国家，因此选 B项。录音首句提到美国仍拥有世界上最多的留学生，故排除 A项。菲律宾以其低廉的学费、开放的文化和优质的教育吸引着众多留学生， C项中的 “收取高额的费用 ”不正确。据菲律宾驻美国大使 Jose L Cuisia所说，韩国是菲律宾外国留学生主要 的生源国，排除D项。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 四个选项的主语均为 It，根据选项中的 official language、 spoken by、 widely used等关键词，可推测 It指某种语言。录音中段提到在菲律宾使用英语比

22、使用菲律宾本国语言的人要多，因此选 D项。原文提到二十世纪初美国殖民者将英语带到了菲律宾， A项错在时间 “十九世纪 ”。录音说到，英语虽不是大多数菲律宾人的母语，但它在菲律宾却是官方语言， B项与该处录音内容相反。虽然菲律宾获得独立已有 60余年 ，但是菲律宾人讲英语时仍带有一种很浓的美国口音，而非 C项所说的 “本土口音 ”。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 3 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项均为 by doing sth结构，推测本题可能问方式、方法。题目问学生在菲律宾是如何学英语的。录音末尾提到，在菲律宾，学生被鼓励通过在真实生活场景中练习使用英语来进行学习， A项中的 puttin

23、g it intoactual use是录音中 practice speaking English in real-life situations的同义表达，故 为答案。原文提到在亚洲的大多数国家，学生都是通过语法和翻译来学习英语，而在菲律宾却很少强调语法或者纠正学生的错误， B、 C、 D这三项均为利用个别原词制造的干扰项，皆与录音原文不符。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 4 【听力原文】 Bitcoin is a digital currency used by terrorists and drug dealers, as well as major companies like Micr

24、osoft and O. In other words, everyone from private individuals who order pizza to terrorists who order weapons. Bitcoin was a currency created in 2009 by a mysterious software developer.

25、ople. Bitcoin does not use printed money. It is digital only. The currency is created on computers by a community of people across the globe. Anyone can join that network, or group, according to C. This network processes transactions made with the digital currency. Bitcoins are stored in a “digital

26、wallet“ over the Internet or on the users computer. There is not an unlimited amount of bitcoins. Nakamoto set up rules to limit the currency to 21 million bitcoins. With bitcoins, there are no banks or fees. Users do not register with their real names. Merchandise can be bought without the user sho

27、wing her or his identity. Bitcoins are not taxed or regulated anywhere in the world. Bitcoins have become the currency of choice for people online buying drugs or other illegal activities.

29、Fox News. “Countries have gotten very good at tracking terror financing in the years since 9-11.

More and more merchants are beginning t

As of now, the price of one bitcoin is about $434. 19. What do we learn about bitcoin? 20. Why are bitcoins favored by terrorists acco

33、rding to Morgan Wright? 21. Who runs the largest bitcoin exchange in the world? 22. What was the price of one bitcoin in late 2013? 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 录音中说到比特币不使用印制货币的形式，只以电子货币的形式存在， C“它是一种电子货币而非印制货币 ”是该处录音信息的同义表述，故选 C项。录音开头讲到比特币是一种电子货币，恐怖分子、毒贩、像微软和 Overstock这样的大公司或者个人都可以使用， A项 ”比特币只用于非法活动 ”属于断章取义。比特

34、币是一名神秘的软件开发者于 2009年创造的， B项错在 “由微软公司创造 ”。比特币并不是没有数量的限制，其创造者 Nakamoto设定的限额是 2100万比特币，因此 D项 “比特币可以无限制地制造 ”不正确。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 四个选项均有 bitcoins，且都是关于比特币的优点，可以推测题目与比特币某方面的优点相关。录音提到网络安全专家 Morgan Wright告诉 Fox News恐怖分子需要匿名 (anonymity)，但各国在追踪恐怖组织资金方面很有成效，恐怖组织需要寻找新的方法，而比特币就是他们找到的新方法，即 “比特币是匿 名

35、使用的 ”是其受恐怖分子青睐的原因，故选 A。原文提到人们在使用比特币交易时不需要提供身份信息，而且比特币不需要征税，也不受任何监管，因此 B项 “比特币的监管是所有货币中最好的 ”和 C项 “比特币的税率更低 ”都不正确。 D项 “使用比特币更为方便 ”虽然也是其一大优点，但 Morgan Wright在讲到恐怖分子使用比特币时并未提及这一点。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 题目问世界上最大的比特币交易所是哪个。录音靠后部分提到位于旧金山的 Coinbase是全球最大的比特币交易所 ，故选 C项。录音提到除了Coinbase之外，人们还可以在其他一些交易所进

36、行比特币交易，如 Bitquick、Xapo、 CoinCorner等，但它们并非最大的交易所，故排除 A、 B、 D。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 7 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项都表示金额，听音时需要特别留意表示价格的数字。录音末尾处提到比特币在网上交易的价格波动很大， 2013年下半年一比特币的价格为1216美元，故 B项为答案。根据录音， “比特币完全没有价值 ”是 2009年和 2010年初时的情况，价格约为 434美元是 比特币目前的价格，均非题目问的 2013年的价格， A、 C两项可排除。 D项 “864美元 ”在录音中未提及。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 8 【听

37、力原文】 Good morning. Im Mario Ritter. Today I am going to talk about how to make an effective complaint. When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturers claims, the first step is to present the warranty, or any other records whic

38、h might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction. A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher

39、 up“ his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumers favor, assuming he or she has a just claim. Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to

40、phone or write the complaint in a letter. Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as

41、to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear“ is better than “This stereo does not work“. The store manager may advice the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consume

42、r should do this, stating the complaint as politely and firmly as possible. If a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go to a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for pr

43、otecting consumers rights. 23. What should a consumer first do when he finds the item he bought is faulty? 24. How can a consumer make his complaint more effective? 25. What may the manager advise the consumer to do? 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 四个选项都是动词短语，结合 warranty、 letter of complaint、store等关键词，推测题目可能与购物及售

44、后方面的问题相关。录音开头部分提到当消费者发现他买的东西有问题或跟厂家所声称的产品信息不符时，首先要做的就是向商店提供保修单或者其他有用的票据， A项中的 Show the warranty即为录音中 present the warranty的同义表达，故为答案。原文提到消费者最好是亲自到商店当面进行投诉，如果实在无法做到，再考虑 “向商店写投诉信 ”(B项 )或 “打电话给商店 ”(C项 )，可见 B、 C两项并非首选做法。 D项 “给商品拍照 ”在录音中未提及。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项都是 by doing sth的介词短语，推测题目可能问

45、做某事的方法。录音中提到如果消费者态度礼貌而坚决地进行投诉，尤其是能直接展示商品的问题时，投诉最为有效。但如果无法做到，消费者最好能提供商品问题的确 切信息而不仅仅是泛泛地说商品有问题，因此本题选 B项 “解释清楚商品的问题所在 ”。 A项错在 impolitely“无礼地 ”， C项错在 describing generally“大致地描述 ”。录音中强调，消费者最好亲自到店当面投诉 (complain person)， D项 “避免与商店经理的正面接触 ”与该处录音内容相反。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 选项皆为以动词原形开头的短语，推测题目可能问计划

46、、建议或打算。录音靠后部分举例说明了如何描述商品问题，接着提到商店经理也许 会建议消费者给厂家写投诉信， C项是对该处录音信息的复述，故为答案。原文提到如果消费者给厂家的投诉没有达到预期的效果，消费者可以采取进一步的措施，比如威胁将商家告上法庭或者向消费者权益保护组织进行投诉，但这并不是商店经理建议消费者做的事情，故排除 A项和 B项。 D项 “在该商店以折扣价购买另一件商品 ”在录音中未提及。 【知识模块】 讲座 /讲话 11 【听力原文】 Talk show host: Today we have good news for all our coffee drinkers around t

49、alth benefits come not just from the caffeine in coffee, but from the compounds in the beans. Our study was large, of about 200,000 subjects included data from three ongoing studies. Subjects in the study had to answer questions about their coffee drinking habits every four years over a 30-year period.
