The organization says about 90 percent of children in refugee camps run by the Turkish government attend school. But most of the children living outside of th

18、ose camps are not receiving education. 1. What is the news report mainly about? 2. What did the United States do to help refugee children? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 新闻通篇讲的是在土耳其的叙利亚难民儿童的教育问题。 B正确。新闻后段虽提到美国为土耳其提供了教育援助，但 A项 “美国儿童的教育问题 ”张冠李戴。新闻后段确实提到了人权观察组织的声明 (Human Rights Watch says )，但这只是新闻的细节内容，并非主旨，故 C“人权观

19、察组织发表了声明 ”也排除。新闻最后提到 “难民营外的大部分儿童并未接受教 育 ”，而非 D“土耳其的大部分儿童不能接受教育 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中提到，美国之前已为土耳其提供了帮助 (aid)，之后明确指出美国又在 12月提供了一笔 2400万美元的援助，由此可知，美国是通过经济援助的方式帮助土耳其的难民儿童， C正确。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【听力原文】 Eleven Taliban fighters attacked an important airport in southern Afghanistan early Tuesday, ki

20、lling at least 50 people, Afghan officials said. The Afghan Defense Ministry said 38 civilians, 10 soldiers and two police officers were killed.

What led to the growth of Taliban attacks in Afghanistan? 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻的 开头提到， 11名塔利班武装分子于周二凌晨袭击了阿富汗南部一座重要的机场。 C“他们袭击了阿富汗的一座机场 ”正确。新闻提到此次袭击造成了至少 50人死亡， A“他们杀害的人数不超过 50”错误。随后新闻中提到遇难者包括 38名平民， 10名士兵和 2名警察，故 D“他们杀害了十名儿童和两名警察 ”也不对。虽然新闻提到，机场有 NATO的军事基地，但并没有提到塔利班武装分子直接与 NATO的军队交火， B错

24、误。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 新闻末尾提到，自从去年其他国家的武装部队撤走后，塔利 班的袭击在数量和破坏力都增加了 (grown in number and strength)，故导致塔利班袭击增多的原因就是外国军队的撤走， A正确。发出错误声明 (false claims)的是塔利班，而非外国军队， B错误。 C利用 strength一词作干扰，新闻并没有提到当地军队的情况。 D“去年对外国军队的胜利 ”没有在新闻中提到。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 The Australian state of Tasmania is considering ra

25、ising the legal age for buying cigarettes to at least 21 and potentially as high as 25. If the plan goes ahead it will give Tasmania some of the toughest tobacco laws in the world.

30、 ”， D错误。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中提到，澳大利亚四年前推行了所谓的 plain packaging政策，要求包装上统一用橄榄褐色，还要有健康警示的图示 (health warnings that include pictures)， C与此一致，为答案。 B出现关键词 olive，但新闻是说包装的颜色是 olive brown“橄榄褐色 ”，而非真的是印上 olive trees“橄榄树 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 B 【试题解 析】 选项均以 To开头，题目可能问的是做某件事的目的。新闻最后提到，塔斯马尼亚政府的提议是五年计划的一

How is the man going to help her? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 女士开头就说： “那正是我打电话的原因。我决定另外找一套房子。 ”B选项中的 “search for a new apartment”就是此句 “look for a new place”的同义替换。

42、口语中 place可以指住处。各选项均与住房有关 (apartment， rent，room， roommate属于同一个语义场 )；选项核心词分别是 problems， search，cost， how to share。注意听清对话的焦点，用以辨别正确选项。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 女士抱怨现在住的地方离校园有点远，每天上下学烦死人，可见她想搬家的原因是住得太远了，故选 A。录音确实提到女士想要跟一或两个室友合租，但这是由于她预算 (budget)有限，因此 B“她想要一个室友 ”不是搬家的原因。录音并未提到女士付不起房租，故排除 C“她付不起房租 ”。有
