15、so quickly that the Arctic Ocean could lose most of its ice during summer time in as little as ten years. Scientists of Cambridge University say recent exploration to the Arctic led by explorer Pen Hadow found ice was much thinner than expected and less dense, subject to rapid melting. Mr. Hadow sai

16、d the finding should act as a wake-up call. The long-term view for the global community, this is definitely not good news. But if we can see this for what it is which is the biggest visual cue that we are going to get to manage our relationship with the planet better, then that is a good thing. 1. W

17、hat is this news item mainly about? 2. How can the bad news become a good one? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。新闻中报道：北极积冰的融化速度太快 (it is melting so quickly)导致北冰洋冰雪将在 10个夏天之后基本融掉。剑桥大学的科学家们说最近的北极探险发现冰块比想象中的更薄、更稀了。可见新闻主要是说北极冰雪的快速融化 .B项中的 The increased melting是对原文的同义改写，故答案是 B项。 A项 “建设地球村的建议 ”在新闻中没有提到。虽然剑桥大学的科学家们

18、说最近的北极探险发现冰块比想象中的更薄了，但这是为了引出北极积冰融化加快这一主 题， C项 “探险队员到北极探险 ”和 D项 “剑桥大学的科学研究 ”都不是新闻的主要内容。 2 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 新闻中指出，从长远来看，对于地球来说这绝对不是个好消息。但是，如果我们能把这件事看成对我们最重要的提示：设法更好地处理人类和地球关系的话 (get to manage our relationship withthe planet better)，那将是一件好事。故正确答案是 A项。 B项 “地球人采取某些行动阻止积冰消融 ”、 C项 “剑桥大学的研究人员做更多研究 ”和 D项 “地球村

19、得到越来越多的 关注 ”均没有在新闻中提到。 3 【听力原文】 Fifty-seven “militiamen“, including several high-ranking officers loyal to militia leader Gabriel Tang, were killed when Tangs forces attacked the Sudan Peoples Liberation Army in Southern Sudan, officials said Sunday. Tangs forces launched the attack at Kaldak on Sat

20、urday, the Sudan Peoples Liberation Army(SPLA)said in a statement issued on behalf of General Malaak Ayuen of the South Sudan Army. The SPLA is the military wing of the movement that governs Southern Sudan. The SPLA killed 57 of Tangs forces, including three major generals, according to the statemen

21、t. In addition, one major general was captured, the statement said. Tang himself “narrowly escaped“ the fighting, according to the statement. Officials said it was unclear why Tangs forces attacked the troops, but the SPLA said it believes he has been in contact with other rebel groups in the region

22、. 3. How many major generals were killed in the attack? 4. How was Gabriel Tang after the attack? 3 【正确 答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中提到有 57个人被杀，包括 3名少将 (three major generals)，选 C项。数字题在听音时要做笔记，在数字旁标上相应的信息。本题要听清问的是 major generals。 4 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻中指出 Tang“narrowly escaped”thefighting，意为 “幸免于难 ”，故选 D项。 5 【听力原文】

23、 Thousands will gather in the city center just after 5:00 am on Tuesday, April 18, to remember victims of the Great Earthquake. Organizers say they will also celebrate the heroism of the survivors. One hundred years ago, the first small shock struck at 5:12 in the morning, and the region shook viole

24、ntly for one minute. A center of culture and commerce, San Francisco was then known as the Paris of the West. Just hours earlier, Italian tenor Enrico Caruso had appeared in the opera Carmen at the citys opera house. The singer later recalled trembling with fear as he looked out of the window of his

25、 room at the Palace Hotel. He saw buildings collapse, and heard the screams of men, women and children. Historian Eileen Keremitsis is a volunteer guide who describes the tragic story for visitors. The quake was massive and it was centered just off the coast close to the city. The shaking damaged or

26、 destroyed thousands of buildings over a wide area, but Keremitsis says most of the severe destruction was caused by fires that burned uncontrolled for three days. 5. What does the news item mainly report? 6. What can we learn about the Great Earthquake? 7. According to Keremitsis, what caused the m

27、ost of the destruction? 5 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻首句提到， 4月 18日 (星期二 )，数千人将于早上 5点后聚集在市中心来悼念大地震的遇难者。接着新闻通过不同人的经历回顾了 100年前的旧金山大地震。故 C项 “大地震 100周年纪念 ”正确。新闻提到旧金山以 “西方的巴黎 ”著称， A项只是指出旧金山的别称，故排除。新闻中讲述了幸存者在地震时的见闻以及震后的灾难但这只是给听众再现了当时的情境，新闻并不是为了歌颂幸存者的英雄气概或报道震后的损失，故排除 B、 D项。 6 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻后半部分提到，那次地震强度大且震中位于城市附近

28、的海域(just off the coast close tothe city)， D项 “震中在海洋中 ”正确。新闻开篇提到的 “五点 ”是人们在市中心聚集纪念大地震的时间，而不是地震发生时间，排 除 A项。第一次轻微的地震是在 5： 12，接着开始长达 1分钟的剧烈摇动故 B项 “一开始的轻微地震持续了 1分钟 ”错误。历史学家 Eileen Keremitsis给民众叙述了这个悲剧，但原文没有提及他是地震的幸存者，排除 C项。 7 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 新闻结尾处提到， Keremitsis说，大多数的毁坏是由失控了 3天的大火导致的 (caused byfires)，故 B项

29、正确。剧烈的摇晃使许多建筑坍塌，但这不是导致损失的主要原因，排除 A项。 C项 “大人和小孩的恐慌 ”只是地震时人们的反应。 D项 “地震引 起的洪水 ”没有在新闻中提到。 Section B 8 【听力原文】 W: So John, I hear you and Arthur share a job, dont you? M: Yeah. Weve shared a sales job at Sonatech for about two years now. W: Well, how do you divide up your schedule? M: You know, we are bo

30、th sales representatives, and we take orders over the phone. When we started job sharing it was difficult, because we both worked all day Monday. I worked Tuesday and Thursday and Arthur worked Wednesday and Friday. The problem was that when I was in the office on Tuesday. I would talk to people, th

31、en they would call back on Wednesday with a question. But Arthur couldnt answer the question and he couldnt ask me about it because I wasnt in the office. So he had to ask the people to call me back the next day, Thursday. Of course, they didnt like to wait until the next day to have their question

32、answered. W: Yes, that sounds like a problem. M: So, finally we decided that Arthur would work in the mornings and I would work in the afternoons. Now if someone calls with a question for me in the morning, Arthur tells them to call me in the afternoon. This way, people get their questions answered

33、the same day. W: What do you do about vacations? M: Well, Sonatech gives the usual two weeks of vacation to full-time employees, I take a week and Arthur takes a week. W: It sounds like job sharing has worked out well for you. M: Yes, it has. We are both happy with it. 8. What do John and Arthur do

34、at Sonatech? 9. What problem did John and Arthur have when they started job sharing? 10. What is Arthurs final solution when someone calls with a question for John? 11. What does John say about their annual vacation? 8 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 通过选项中的 Make phone calls， Arrangebusiness negotiations， Take order

35、s， Handlecomplaints可推测问的是工作职责方面的问题。男士在谈到两个人如何分配工作的时候说到他们是通过电话接订单，由此判断选 C。 A的 “促销 ”、 B的 “商务谈判 ”以及 D的 “客户投诉 ”在对话中均未提及。男士在对话中提到we take orders over thephone，符合 “长对话听到什么选什么 ”的答题原则。 9 【正确答 案】 A 【试题解析】 根据选项中的 could not be answered， could not be properly solved， mistook可推测本题可能会问他们工作中存在的问题。男士说他们工作的问题就是他周二上班，

36、而客户在周三打电话回来的时候却是 Arthur接电话，而Arthur没法回答问题，只能让客户周四再打电话过来，但客户不喜欢等到第二天才得到答复。由此判断问题在于客户的问题无法当天得到解答，所以选 A。在谈到问题的时候，男士说客户不喜欢问题要第二天才能得到解答，也就是说问题是客户的问 题当天得不到解答， A是男士所说内容的同义替换， B的 “冲突 ”、 C的“把一个人误认为另一个 ”和 D的 “不同的商业策略 ”均未在对话中提及。 10 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 根据各选项中的 answers， call back和 ques-tion可推测提问可能与如何回答电话问题有关。男士说最后他们决

37、定 Arthur上早上的班， John(对话中的男士 )上下午的班，如果有人早上打电话来问 John问题， Arthur会告诉他们下午再打电话过来，可见 Arthur最后的解决方法是叫他们下午再打电话过来， B符合对话原意。 Arthur并没有自己回答问题，也没有让别人回答问题，也没有直接说他帮不上忙，可排除 A、 C和 D。 11 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 通过选项中的 given two weeks， spend ittogether， take it by turns， each take a week可推断本题可能会问如何休假。当被问及假期时，男士说全职员工有两周假期，他休一周，

38、 Arthur休一周，因此选 D。对话中提到 “我休一周， Arthur休一周 ”，符合 “长对话听到什么选什么 ”的答题原则。 12 【听力原文】 W: May I see your license, please? M: But officer, did I do something wrong? W: Do you mean to say you didnt see the speed limit sign back there? M: Um, no, maam , I guess I didnt. W: In other words, you drove by too fast to

39、read it. The sign says 35m/h. A school is just nearby, you know? M: Dont get me wrong, but my speedometer didnt read much faster than that. W: Then, why is it that my radar showed you were going 45? Let me put it another way. Im going to have to give you a ticket. Again, may I see your license, plea

40、se? M: Here it is, officer. But let me explain. I was late for an important appointment and I was worried that I wouldnt make it on time. So. W: Um ha, just a minute, here. Your license is no longer valid. You should have renewed it two weeks ago. Im going to have to write you up for that, too. M: W

41、hat? Really? W: Your license becomes invalid on your birthday and that was two weeks ago according to the date here. You are in violation of the law driving without a valid license. M: Im sorry, maam. I hadnt realized that. W: Heres the ticket for not having a valid license. But Im only going to giv

42、e you a warning about exceeding the speed limit. Be careful next time. M: Yes, maam, officer, I will. Thank you. 12. Where was the man stopped by the police officer? 13. What did the man claim about the speed limit sign? 14. What did the woman say about the mans driving license? 15. What was the man

43、s penalty? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项都是关于地点的介词短语，因此判断本题可能会问与地点相关的问题 。女警官说男士开车太快，没有注意到一个 35m h的告示牌接着用反问句说明限速的原因：一所学校就在附近，因此选 B。其他三项关键词 “十字路口 ”， “警察局 ”以及 “幼儿园 ”在对话中均未提及。 13 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据选项中的 not notice， too fast to readit， not clearly visible可推测本题可能会问跟 “没有看到某个东西 ”有关的问题。当被问及是不是没注意到限速告示牌时，男士回答说他没有看到，因此选

44、 A。 B是女警官说的，并非男士，答非所问： “45英里 小时 ”是女士雷达上显示的男士的车速，并非男士对限速告示牌的说法， C也不对； D“限速牌不是很清晰 ”，对话中未提及。 14 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据选项 should have been renewed， nolonger valid， not genuine可推测本题可能会问 It存在的问题。女警官说男士的驾照已经过期了，两周前就应该更新了，因此选 C。 A的 two months与录音中的 two weeks不符； B的 “属于别人 ”和 D的 “假的 ”在对话中没有提及。 15 【正确答案】 B 【试 题解析】 根

45、据选项中的 was fined， got a ticket， li-cense canceled可推测本题可能会问男士受到的惩罚是什么。女警官因为男士的驾照过期给他开了张罚单，但对他的超速行车只是口头警告，并叮嘱他下次小心，因此答案为 B。 A的“35美元 ”和 D的 “社区服务 ”女警官都没有提及：对话中也没有提及 “女警官吊销男士的驾照 ”，因此 C也不对。 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Since I started working part-time at a grocery store, I have learned that a customer is more than

46、 someone who buys something. To me, a customer is a person whose memory fails entirely once he or she starts to push a shopping cart. One of the first things customers forget is how to count. Theres no other way to explain how so many people get in their express line, which is clearly marked 15 item

47、s or less, with 20, 25 or even a cart load of items. Customers also forget why they came to the store in the first place. Just as I finish ringing up an order, a customer will say, “Oops, I forgot to pick up a fresh loaf of bread. I hope you dont mind waiting while I go get it.“ Five minutes later,

48、hes back with the bread, a bottle of milk, and three rolls of paper towels. Strange is it seems customers also seem to forget that they have to pay for their groceries. Instead of writing a check or looking for a credit card while I am ringing up the groceries, my customer will wait until I announce

49、 the total. Then, in surprise, she says, “Oh no, what did I do with my check book?“ After 5 minutes of digging through her purse, she borrows my pen because shes forgotten hers. But I have to be tolerant of customers because they pay my salary, and thats something I cant afford to forget. 16. What does the speaker say about customers entering the grocery store? 17. Which customers are supposed to be in the express line? 18. What does the speaker say some customers do when they arrive at the check-out counter? 19. What does the speaker
