14、 said. (1)Trey Scott Atwater was taken into prison Saturday morning after Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents spotted what they described as a suspicious item. The item was in his carry-on during X-ray screening at a security checkpoint at the airport, an FBI spokesman said in a stat

15、ement. Neither the FBI nor the TSA identified the explosives, though an airport spokeswoman said the items were “wrapped in military grade wrapping“ and are in the possession of the police. (2)At no time was there any danger to the people at the airport. The airport terminal was temporarily closed w

16、hile authorities “conducted a sweep, and deemed all clear,“ said a city spokeswoman. Atwater has been arrested on a federal count of attempting to get on an aircraft with an explosive. 1. Who found the suspicious item at the airport? 2. What do we learn about the airport from the news report? 1 【正确答

17、案】 B 【试题解析】 根据录音，运输安全管理特工 (TSA agent)发现 (spot)可疑物， B正确。录音两次提到 FBI(联邦调查局 )，一次是 FBI发言人说在机场安检处 X光扫描时发现 Atwater的随身包中有可疑物，另一次提及 FBI和 TSA都没能确认爆炸物。录音只提到 “可疑物现在警方手中 ”，也没有提到 passenger等字眼，由此排除A、 C、 D。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 D“机场乘客安然无恙 ”对应录音中的 at no time was there any danger，故选 D。新闻中提到，可疑物现在警方手中 (in the p

18、ossession of the police)，所以机场现在并不是处于危险状态， A错误。新闻还提到机场临时关闭(temporarily closed)候机楼，对机场内部进行全面彻底的搜查 (conducted a sweep)，故 B“候机楼稍后仍保持开放状态 ”和 C“对机场外部进行了彻底搜查 ”与新闻内容相反。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【听力原文】 The Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, the government agency that regulates civil aviation in the United States, (

19、3)announced new rules this month to combat pilot fatigue. The new guidelines, which will go into effect in two years, call for reducing the number of pilots on-duty hours and giving them a 10-hour rest period between shifts, so they can get at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. The new rules appl

20、y to only pilots of passenger airlines. FAA determined that including pilots who fly cargo planes a large segment of the aviation industry would add too much to the cost of implementing the changes. (4)But the Independent Pilots Association (IPA) has filed a lawsuit asking the government to set one

21、level of safety for all pilots. 3. What is the main purpose of the new rules? 4. Why was IPA unhappy about the new rules? 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 录音一开始指出颁布新规定的目的：应对飞行员疲劳 (to combat pilot fatigue)。接着说到新规定的具体内容 “要求减少飞行员勤务时间，在轮 班间有 10小时的休息时间，这样他们可以得到至少 8小时的完整睡眠 ”，故选 C“确保飞行员有充足的睡眠时间 ”。飞行员人数、超时工作 (working over

22、time)、飞行员工作量 (the amount of work)均没有在新闻中提到，故排除。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 录音最后提到，独立飞行员协会 (IPA)要求政府对所有飞行员设定统一的安全标准，可见协会不满的原因是 A“新规定不能覆盖到所有的飞行员 ”。 B错在 cargo，新规定只用于客机飞行员。 C“计划两年后实施 ”是提到的事实，但不是协会不满的原因。录音提到如果把货机飞行员也包括进来，实施规定的花费就会太大，但这不是协会不满的原因，排除 D。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 The Authors Guild, a writing assoc

23、iation, has started the new year successfully. First, the group, which represents the interests of writers, (5)asked the Supreme Court to review an October appeals court ruling, which supported Googles right to digitize out-of-print books without an authors permission. A few days later, the associat

24、ion raised another issue when it released a letter to publishers demanding better contract terms for authors. (6)Both moves come as many writers find it harder and harder to make a living from their writing. Since 2009, the mean income for writers has gone down 30 percent, says the associations exec

25、utive director, Mary Rasenberger. “Its alarming. Incomes are now down to unsustainable levels, and that means that even the authors, who have been writing for decades, are now being forced to seek other work,“ she says. “So, we are looking at this in a comprehensive way: Why this happening, and what

26、 can we do about it?“ (7)Rasenberger says the Google Books case raised the issue of copyright protection. Among other things, the association says its writers should get a higher percentage of e-book income and authors should also be able to retain the rights to their own books. 5. What did the Auth

27、ors Guild do in the new year? 6. Why did the Authors Guild take the two moves in the new year? 7. What issue is the Google Book case concern with? 5 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻开头提到，美国作家协会 (The Authors Guild)成功开始了新的一年。接着具体指出作家协会首先要求最高法院复审去年十月的上诉裁决，裁决判定谷歌有权不经作家许可就可以将已绝版的书刊制成电子版， D与新闻内容相符。 A中 represents the int

28、erests of writers在新闻中出现过原词，是对该协会的介绍说明，并不是新年做的。 B“建立一个新的机构来支持作家 ”没有在新闻提及。 C错在 had meetings，新闻说的是 “发表信件给出版商 ”(released a letter)要求更好的合同条款，而不是与 “出版商 ”开会。 【 知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 新闻开头介绍了作家协会采取的两个行动，然后指明这么做是因为作家们发现通过写作谋生已经变得越来越难了 (harder and harder to make a living)， B与新闻原意相同，故为答案。 A“有越来越多的作家 ”与事实相反

29、，新闻说的是有不少作家想转行。虽作家协会的初衷是提高作家的收入，而不是让作家换工作，故 C“想帮作家找新工作 ”错误。 D只是谋生艰难的例子，不具概括性，且新闻中提到自 2009年作家收入降低了 30，而选项数据为 13，故 排除。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 新闻末尾部分提到，谷歌图书一案引发人们对版权保护的关注(raised the issue of copyright protection)，因此答案选 A。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 8 【听力原文】 W: Hey, Taxi!

How does the man comment on the Mexican restaurant he recommends? 11. Which seems to be the most convenient way

36、 to the restaurant? 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 由选项预测本题可能考查地点。对话一开始女士就说 “我要去国家艺术博物馆 ”，故选 A。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 时间题。如果对话中有多处提及了时间，则要适当做笔记，听清问题之后再做出选择，切勿张冠李戴。男士说，普通的司机不需要超过 20分钟，而自己非比寻常，少于 20分钟就可以了，故选 C。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 由选项预测本题可能考查某人对某事物的评价。根据关键词fantastic， not as inexpensive， authentic及 la

37、rger可以归纳出男士对墨西哥饭店的评价：与其他饭店相比，这里虽贵却物有所值，即 D项。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题考查交通工具，需快速地对听到的内容做出判断。男士谈及了几种交通工具，除了第一种， B、 C都被男士很快否定 听到 but要排除其前面的内容， D未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 M: Hello!

39、good swimmer, then. W: Youre right. (13)Swimming is my favourite hobby. But I simply dont know what to do with these skis. M: Dont worry. Im sure you will learn it very soon.

42、e did the man lead the woman first in order to make things easier? 15. If the woman wants to stop, what should she do? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项都是 she做什么或感觉怎么样，听音时要留意女士的行为和感觉。男士说女士看起来很担心的样子，女士说她看着脚上的滑雪屐感觉很奇怪，男士明白过来：女士是因为不懂滑雪而 担心，可见 B正确。对话开头女士提到，穿着滑雪屐感觉很奇怪，而男士立马反应过来是女士不会滑雪 (dont know how to ski)，并非滑雪屐不

43、合脚，因此不能选 A。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 “原词照搬型 ”细节题，抓住与题目相关的词句 “Swimming is my favourite hobby.”，就能直接获得答案，即 C。要注意听清楚题目问的是谁 (男士还是女士 )的爱好。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项都跟 hill(山 )有关，都是指 hill的位置，估计提问将以 Where开头。这时再回过头来看第 13题，就不难确定本对话将涉及到的运动是 A项Skiing(滑 )，因为只有滑雪非得有山不可，这是常识告诉我们的。本题是细节题，问 “男士为简单起见，最先把女士

44、领到何处 ?”男士的话提供了答案，即 B。此处的考点是祈使句的反意疑问句。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 四个选项相同的部分是 She should，只是动词不同，所以听音时要特别留意动词。 D项是对原文 “you should point the tips together”的再现，只不过换了个人称而已。本题是对话结尾处的命题。 【知识模块】 听力 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Jet lag, caused by traveling between time zones, is becoming a common problem for frequen

45、t travelers: for 49 percent it is only a nuisance and for 45 percent it is a real problem.

49、 main purpose of the passage? 16 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 录音开头就提到 Jet lag，第 2句就说明它的起因是 “人体内部的生物钟被打乱 ”，故答案为 A。 【知识模块】 听力 17 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 数字题，一般要做记录并进行简单 的运算。原文说到 1个小时的时差需要 1天来调整，那么 3个时区就是 3个小时的时差，所以应该用 3天即 72个小时， D正确。 【知识模块】 听力 18 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 主旨题。录音的话题是 jet lag problems，但只是客观陈述现象和原因，并未提及避免的方法，故 A对而 B错。 【知识模块】 听力 19 【听力原文】 A “blogger“ is a person who writes on an Internet computer website called a “blog“.
