24、tions next year)。 B复现原文原词，为答案。新闻是说 Basigye回国后被捕，而他本身就是反对党首领， A“逮捕反对党首领 ”错误。 C“回应对他 的指控 ”是执政党要求 Basigye做的事，不是他回国的初衷。 D“保护他的支持者 ”没有在新闻中提到。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 根据新闻可知，题目问的 Basigyes incident指 Basigye被逮捕一事。新闻中提到该事件可能会使得该国 20年来的首次多党选举蒙上阴影 (darken the countrys first multi-party elections in two dec

26、year was hot and annoyed by all manner of extreme weather events that did a lot of expensive damage. December, in fact, was a fitting end. “This is the first time in our 121-year period of record that a month has been both the wettest and the warmest month on record,“ says Jake Crouch, a weather res

27、earcher. The rest of the year was very wet and hot too, he says the second-hottest period on record for the U.S. (6)The cause: a warming climate and a super strong El Nino. El Nino is a weather phenomenon out of the ocean that hits every few years and affects weather globally. Together, climate and

28、a very strong El Nino pushed the weather in the U.S. as warm as its 20th century average. And even when the atmosphere is only that much warmer, it holds more moisture,(7)leading to record snows in the Northeast last February and March, and record rain in the South and Midwest. 5. What was weather i

29、n the U.S. like last year? 6. What made last years weather so wired? 7. What happened in the Northwest of the U.S. last February and March? 5 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻开头提到，美国每年都会回顾过去一年的天气，发现去年的天气十分怪异。接着具体说这一年十分炎热，并且出现很多极端天气，并导致严重的经济损失，可见天气十分糟糕。 D“天气炎热且糟糕 ”与新闻内容相符。 A和 C都错在 cold，新闻中的确原词这一年十分潮湿 (wet)，但也是炎热的。同

31、D只是利用新闻末尾中的 much warmer和 more moisture作干扰，都没有实质根据。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 8 【听力原文】 W: What sort of hours do you work, Steve? M: Well,(8)I have to work very long hours, about 11 hours a day. W: What time do you start? M: I work 9 to 3. Then I start again at 5:30 and work until 11. Six days a week. So I

36、nt to being good at his job? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 对话一开始男士 就回答说他要工作很长时间，每天 11个小时，每周 6天。因此答案为 B。 A“使他能交到很多朋友 ”、 C“使他得以将理论应用于实践 ”和 D“帮助他更好地理解人们 ”录音未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 女士问这份工作比较困难的是什么 ?男士回答说要一直站着，结合工作时间长，可判断出这份工作需要耐力和耐心。因此答案为 D。 A“在智力上有挑战 ”和 C“整天接触油烟 ”无原文依据；男士在前面曾说到 “不需要洗餐具 ”，因此B错误。 【知识模块】 听力

37、10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 男士说给 6个宾馆写了信，其中一个给了他第一份工作。因此答案为 D。 A“医院 ”、 B“咖啡店 ”和 C“干洗店 ”均与男士所述不符。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 对话中男士说做好工作的秘诀是关注细节、热爱工作、有激情。 B属于其中之一，故为答案。 A“与同事好好相处 ”、 C“提前计划好所有事情 ”和D“知道顾客的需求 ”均属随意捏造，原文无相关信息支持。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 W: (12)Now youve seen this table of figures about the pocket mon

38、ey children in Britain get? M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I dont quite understand the column entitled “Change“. Can you explain what it means? W: Well, I think it means the change from the year before. I am not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 72p to 90p is a rise of 25

39、percent M: Oh, yes. I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison. W: Yes.(13)Why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation? M: (14)I am sorry Ive no idea Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous. W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were not better

40、off in 2001 than they were in 2002. Thats strange, isnt it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are now. I wonder why that is. M: Yes. I dont understand that at all.

41、ve them 2 pounds a week. W: Would you? And what would you expect them to do with it? M: Well,(15)out of that, theyd have to buy some small personal things, but I wouldnt expect them to save to buy their own socks, for example. W: Yes. By the way, do most children in your country get pocket money? M:

42、 Yeah, they do. 12. What is the table of figures about? 13. What do we learn from the conversation about British childrens pocket money? 14. Why does the man think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation? 15. Supposing the man had children, what would he expect them to do with their

43、pocket money? 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 对话开头就提到这个数 据表是关于英国儿童的零花钱的。因此答案为 A。 pocket money为原文高频词组，由此也可以推测本对话的主题，可依据主题答题。 B“英国的年通货膨胀率 ”、 C“英国孩子花钱购买的物品 ”及 D“在英国养育孩子上涨的成本 ”均与录音所述不符。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 对话中女士问过男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高于通货膨胀。因此答案为 C。对话中提到词组 better off， A的 live better为干扰项； B“在经济不景气时下降 ”原文未提及； D中的 25

44、尽管在原文中提 到过，但 past decade“过去十年 ”未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 对话中女士问男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高于通货膨胀，男士回答原因可能是英国的父母过于慷慨 (Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous)。 A是对此的原词复现，故为答案。 B“英国的父母挣钱更多了 ”和 C“英国的父母太爱孩子了 ”录音未提及； D“英国的父母希望孩子生活得更好 ”利用原词better off制造干扰，但与男士所给原因不符。 【知识 模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 当女士问男士期望孩子

45、们用零花钱干什么的时候，他回答说他们可以用这些钱买点小的私人物品。因此答案为 B。 A“为将来的学业存起来 ”和 D“必要的时候捐款 ”原文未提及； C“给他们自己买鞋和袜子 ”为强干扰项，这实际上与原文说的 “不指望他们存钱给自己买袜子 ”相悖。 【知识模块】 听力 Section C 16 【听力原文】 (16)There are many commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and eyesight that are not proven facts. For instance, some people believe that wearing

46、 glasses too soon weakens the eyes. But there is no evidence to show that the structure of eyes is changed by wearing glasses at a young age. (17)Wearing the wrong glasses, however, can prove harmful. Studies show that for adults there is no danger, but children can develop loss of vision if they ha

47、ve glasses inappropriate for their eyes. (16)We have all heard some of the common myths about how eyesight gets bad. Most people believe that reading in dim light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue. Too little light makes the eyes work harder, so they do get tired and strained. Eyestrain also

48、results from reading a lot, reading in bed, and watching too much television. However, although eyestrain may cause some pain or headaches, it does not permanently damage eyesight. (16)/(18)Another myth about eyes is that they can be replaced, or transferred from one person to another. There are clo

49、se to one million nerve fibres that connect the eyeball to the brain, as of yet it is impossible to attach them all in a new person. (18)Only certain parts of the eye can be replaced. But if we keep clearing up the myths and learning more about the eyes, some day a full transplant may be possible. 16. What does the speaker want to tell us about eyesight? 17. What do studies about wearing the wrong glasses show? 18. What do we learn about eye transplanting from the talk? 16 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 原文开篇便提出，有关于眼镜和视力的一些公认的看法并不真实。C中的 false notions为原文主题句提及的 belie
