Known as the Fed, its Americas central

21、bank. Its led by Janet Yellen. Its job is to help stabilize Americas financial system. The Fed makes moves to try to lower unemployment and control inflation, when the price of goods goes up too fast for people to afford them. Because the U.S. economy is growing, the Fed raised its key interest rate

22、 by a quarter of a percentage point, not much. But gradual rate increases are likely in the New Year. That means youll have to pay more interest if you borrow money, higher loan rates for home buyers, higher interest rates if you finance a car, higher student loan rates for people who enter colleges

26、的学生 ”和 B项 “需付贷款的户主 ”在新闻中均有提及，但加息后，学生和购房者都要付更多银行贷款，都是受害者。 C项的 “低收入工人 ”在新闻中未提及。 Section B 8 【听力原文】 M: What are you going to have? W: I have no idea Could you help me with the menu? M: Yes, sure. These are starters, and these are main courses and these are desserts. See? W: Whats the alternative? M: Th

27、e alternative is to order a complete dinner.

28、$7.85 plus tax and tip, of course. W: It all looks pretty expensive to me. M: Its not This is only a bit more expensive than McDonalds. So enjoy yourself. Were celebrating, remember?

32、 is kind? 10. Which of the following statements is true about the mans country? 11. What does the man think of the woman? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 场景推理题。题目询问两个对话者是什么关系。对话开头女士没拿定主意吃什么，希望男士提些建议，很多考生以为男士是服务员，因此选择 A。也有人因为后文出现 get promoted和 my boss等用语，错选 D。从全文来看，特别是男士说 “friendsare friends“，可知答案是 B。 9 【正确答案】 D 【

33、试题解 析】 由选项知，本题将问及男士为女士做了什么事。各选项主语都是“the man“，而宾语都与 “她 ”相关。 A项对话中并未提及，可以排除； B项和 C项虽然是事实但却并非原因，故也可排除。对话中，女士觉得饭店的东西很贵，但男士让她想吃什么就点什么，这才是答案所在，故选 D。 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 推理题。在对话中，男士谈到他们国家有来自世界各地的人，他们带来不同的语言和烹饪方法。 C项中的 famous与对话无关， B、 D两项与事实相悖。之后他提到现在连 (even)中国饭店也有很多了，即以前没有很 多，因此 A项正确。 11 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 四个选

34、项主语都是 He，谓语动词都表示心理情态动作，而宾语部分与 “她 ”有关，故可推测，本题问男士对女士的看法。男士虽然没直接说过 C项中的内容，但根据他说 “不久就会再次一起吃饭 ”的预测，可以看出他非常相信女士的工作能力，因为女士许诺升迁了也要请客，答案为 C。 A、 B两项均与原文不符。题目询问的是男士对女士的看法，而 D项描述的只是男士自己的喜恶情况，纯属答非所问，故 D错误。 12 【听力原文】 M: Hi. Welcome to Heavenly Pies. May I take your order? W: Uh. yes. Id like the fried chicken ste

35、ak. M: Okay. Would you like fries, bread, or rice with your meal? W: Umm. Ill take the rice. M: Would you care for anything to drink? W: Yeah. Ill take a medium Sprite. M: Okay. A medium Sprite.

38、essing does she ask for? 14. Why does the woman like to dine at Heavenly Pies? 15. Why is the restaurant not serving pies today? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项均为食物名称，估计本对话发生的场景是餐馆，问供应或点了什么食物。对话开始处，侍者问 “您要点什么 ?”女士回答说： “我来份炸鸡排。 ”接着，女士又点了米饭作主食，以雪碧为饮料。可见 B正确。 13 【正 确答案】 C 【试题解析】 侍者说，点炸鸡排送一份沙拉，并问女士用什么样的沙拉调料。女士从侍者

39、给出的四种调料中选了 Ranch，故 C正确。 14 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项均是 “介词 For+食物 ”，可推断提问与为了吃什么有关。女士说想看馅饼的菜单，说这是她为什么来这家餐馆吃饭的主要原因，可见她喜欢吃这家餐馆的馅饼，也即为了馅饼而来这家餐馆吃饭，故选 B。其他三个选项的食物均可从对话中听到，但都不是女士来就餐的原因，均可排除。 15 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 侍者解释为什 么没有馅饼供应时说： “两天前我们的面包师在厨房里踩到香蕉皮滑倒了，背部受了伤。 ”故 A正确。 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Nowadays motorcycling is fas

43、pinion about motorcycling? 18. How can a motorcyclist be safer than a car driver? 16 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 读题，主题词包括 they， clothes， motorcycle。由此可大体推测本文的话题，从而为听的过程提供了背景。文中提到 “骑摩托车的人经常浑身脏兮兮的。因为路上没有什么东西为他们遮挡泥土，以及昆虫和鸟类的粪便。 ”故选 D。 17 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 短文开头处 however后的内容是听力重点。听到 the average citizen dislikes可知，普通市民

44、对骑摩托车持负面态度。 A、 B、 C均是正面态度，唯有 D与此相符。此外，短文后面具体说到，骑摩托车危险，所以人们对其评价不高。由此也可选出 D。 18 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 由四个条件句可知，本题将问到某个细节。原文结尾处两次提到careful，并且说从这个角度来看，骑摩托车的人比开车的人更安全。 19 【听力原文】 Speech is one of the most important ways of communicating.

48、sides the main thing in communicating? 19 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 四个选项是 (动 )名词词组，与语言有关。可据此听取录音信息。根据原文中的定语 combinationof sounds that stand for a particular object oridea，选C。 20 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 D是对原文 “如果每个人都有自己的语言，就无法进行交流。 ”的同义表达。另类解题法：由选项知，本题将问 “它 ”的作用。 A、 B、 C均说它好， D说它不好，而且 A、 D属于矛盾选项。据此，可以做出大胆推定：选 D!(没有听问题

49、就选答案 !) 21 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项均是名词 (词组 )，与语言有关。本题在最后，应在短文末尾处找答案。 the main thing incommunicating指的是 words，而问题是此外还有哪些主要的方面，答案在最后两句话中，因此不选 A而选 B。 22 【听力原文】 Fathers Day was first observed in Spokane, Washington, in 1910.
