17、ue from the news report? 2. Where was the statue found? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 新闻中提到这座雕像被发现的时候既没头又没胳膊，所以是不完整的，答案应为 B。它是古罗马时代的产物，所以排除 A“是不久前的 艺术品 ”。它只有 1 2米， C“它相当高 ”不正确。 D“它已成碎片 ”，与事实不符。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻提到雕像是在位于耶路撒冷西岸地区的 Ashkelon海边发现的， D正确。 A“在远海处 ”与新闻事实不符。新闻提到峭壁的坍塌毁坏了藏在其中的浴室，而不是说雕像在浴室内被发现，

18、 B排除。雕像原本藏在峭壁中，它被发现是因为峭壁部分坍塌造成雕像掉落到海边，因此排除 C“在悬崖上 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【听力原文】 Four American teenagers, all children of U.S. military personnel, (3)have been arrested on charges of attempted murder after a woman was knocked off her motorbike with rope strung across two poles, Japanese police said.

When were the suspects arrested? 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中提到，嫌犯是 4个青少年，而受害人是一位 23岁的女性，因此选 C。选项 A、 B、 D分别是其中 3个嫌犯的年龄和性别。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题

22、解析】 新闻中提到，美国驻日军方在 10月下旬才获悉这起发生在 8月份的事件。由此可以推断，嫌犯是 10月才被抓捕的，距离案件发生有两个多月，因此选 B。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 (5)Leaders in Paris negotiating a climate change agreement missed their deadline Friday. Representatives from 195 countries have spent two weeks in Paris trying to reach agreement at the United Nations c

23、limate talks. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius extended the deadline until Saturday when the deadline could not be met.

24、nt Fabius Friday after what sources said was a hard night of negotiations.

27、imate talks? 7. Why do poorer countries want developed ones to pay for reducing these emissions? 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 新闻第一句交代了主题：在巴黎讨论天气变化的国家领导并没有如约在星期五达成协议 (missed their deadline Friday)，故答案为 A。注意题目问的是原来的 deadline， B“周六 ”是后来延期后的 deadline。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中段提到，气候大会的最大关键 biggest sticking p

28、oints)是 “经济援助 ”(financial aid)和 “长期目标 ”(long-term goal)，故选 C。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻的最后部分提到，美国等较富裕国家排放了最多的温室气体，所以贫穷国家想让发达国家支付这些费用，因此选 C。 A“他们没有赶上截止日期 ”是所有与会国家都没有完成的事，不是本题考查的原因。 B“他们提出了条款 ”，新闻中提到发展中国家反对发达国提出的条款，或许是因为条款于贫穷国家不利，但这不是贫穷国家想让发达国家支付费用的原因。 D“他们可提供技术 ”未在新闻中提到。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 8 【

29、听力原文】 W: Stan, do you have a minute? M: Oh, hi, Cathy, sure. Whats up? W: (8)Ive been meaning to talk to you about the situation in the office. M: Im not in that very often. Its so noisy that I cant work. W: Thats exactly what Im getting at Were supposed to be able to do our preparation and marking

30、in that office. But have you noticed? (9)Jack constantly has students coming in to get help with his course. A lot of people are going in and out. M: Has anyone spoken to him about it? W: No, not yet. But someones going to have to. M: We really cant ask him to stop having students come in for help,

31、can we? W: No, of course not. But Im not able to do my work and neither are you. I imagine its the same for the others in the office. M: Hum. (10)could we ask for a kind of meeting room? When TAs have to talk with the students, they could go to the meeting room and not use the office. You know, ther

32、es a room down the hall, a rather small room that we could ask to use. Its only for storing supplies. W: You mean that little storage room? Oh, that would be too small. M: Are you sure? With the cabinets taken out, it might be bigger than it looks. W: (11)Come to think of it, you may be on to someth

33、ing. Id like to take a look at that room. Can we go there now? M: Sure, lets go. 8. What problem at the office are Cathy and Stan discussing? 9. Why do Jacks students come to see him? 10. What does Stan suggest they do? 11. What does Cathy say about Stans suggestion? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 选项是四个相关性不大的话题，

34、预测 可能是主旨题。女士开头便说明想找男士谈谈办公室的环境，男士指出办公室很吵，女士进一步表示 “那正是我想要指出的 (getting at)”，由此可知，对话主要和 B相关。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项都围绕 Jack展开，所以听到。 Jack这个名字时，要特别注意。根据 “杰克常常让学生进来给他们辅导 ”，可判断 A正确。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项分别是可以采取的方式，此题为细节题。根据男士所说 “我们可以请求得到会议室之类 的吗 ?”选 A。对话中 Start问道： “有人就此事与杰克谈过吗 ?”这并非建议，故不选

35、B项； C项在对话中已被否认； D项未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项是对男士所提建议的评价。当男士告诉女士那个房间并不小时，女士马上说： “细想一下，也许你言之有理。我想看看那个房间。我们可以现在去那儿吗 ?”所以选 A。其实选项 B与 C有相似性，所以肯定都是错的； D未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 M: (12)The weather forecast says it will rain today. W: (12)Yeah, doesnt it always? Theyve been saying that for a week

36、and I havent seen much sign of it so far. M: Yeah, but look. This time maybe theyre on target. The skys very dark. I got a feeling the rain will be heavy. W: If its raining heavily after class, wait for me and Ill bring you an umbrella M: Thats kind of you to offer, but dont worry Ill probably just

37、wait it out. W: By the way, what are the chances that you might be able to have a word with Professor Simpson in Criminology class? (13)We still need some resources for our Psychology project and his input might help. M: I could ask him, although I dont know how eager hed be to give us information a

38、bout such a topic. W: Oh, come on, hes always so helpful. Why would he even hesitate? M: (14)Well, he has this mind set, which opposes the notion that criminals must necessarily be psychologically abnormal. He feels its just a stereotype. W: Ok. But when it comes to certain crimes like mass murder,

39、there must be a few “marbles loose“. M: You would think so. (15)But its hard to convince Simpson that anyones crazy. W: (15)Perhaps hed make a good reference source in the section where we include counter-arguments to our main thesis. M: (15)Good thinking. Lets give it a shot W: Thats the spirit! 12

40、. Why does the woman seem unconvinced that it will rain today? 13. Why do the man and woman want to talk to Mr. Simpson? 14. What is Simpsons view towards criminals? 15. What will the two speakers probably do? 12 【正确答案 】 C 【试题解析】 男士提到天气预报说今天要下雨时，女士表示，一个星期以来，天气预报天天说要下雨，但一直没看到任何下雨的迹象。由此可知她已经不相信天气预报了，故

41、 C正确。选项 A可能会误选，注意时态与原文的不同。长对话的第一个话轮常设考点。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 女士提到 Simpson教授后，说： “我们的心理学方案还需要些素材，从他那儿也许可以得到帮助。 ”由此可知他们想要找 Mr Simpson的目的是C。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案 】 A 【试题解析】 从选项中共有的 He， thinks， criminals等词，猜测本题很有可能问 He对罪犯的观点。男士说道： “他 (Simpson教授 )有这么一种固定的想法，反对罪犯一定是心理不正常这种观点，他觉得那仅仅是一种老套的思维。 ”A中的rej

42、ects是对原文 opposes的同义替换，故 A正确。 B、 C、 D均与长对话中的含义相反，均不正确。长对话中对问句的答语往往是考点所在。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 男士说很难说服 Simpson教授认同有人是疯的，女士说或许Simpson教授能给他们在主论点的反证部分提供好的参考资料，男士赞同女士的看法，建议试试看，可见他们将会与 Simpson教授交谈，请求 Simpson教授给他们信息，故 C正确。 【知识模块】 听力 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Farmington, Utah, is a more pleasant community

43、since a local girls 4-H club improved Main Street. (16)Six 4-H girls worked to clean a 72-foot curbside that was covered with weeds, rocks and trash. (17)Each member volunteered to clean up and to dig in plot, five flats of flowers. They also took turns in watering, weeding and maintaining the plot.

44、 (18)Participation in this project helped the girls developed a new attitude towards the appearance of their own homes; theyve learned how to work with tools, and improve their work habits. One mother said that before her daughter was involved in this project, she would not even pull a weed. The exp

45、erience on Main Street stimulated self-improvement, and encouraged members to take pride in their home grounds and in the total community. City officials cooperated with the 4-H members in planting trees, building cooking facilities, picnic tables, swings and public restrooms. The 4-H girls planted

46、trees and took care of them during the early stages of growth. The total park project needed more plantings in the following years. (19)Members of the 4-H club agreed to follow the project through to completion, because they receive satisfaction from the results of constructive work. The project is

47、a growing one and has spread from the park to the school and the shopping center. Trees and flowers have all been planted in the shopping center, making the atmosphere pleasant. 16. What do we learn about Main Street in Farmington? 17. What did the 4-H club members do about the curbside? 18. What ha

48、ve the 4-H girls learned from the project? 19. Why did the 4-H girls agree to follow the park project through to completion? 16 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 录音开头提到， 6个 4-H俱乐部女孩清扫了之前满是杂草、石块和垃圾的 Main Street人行道。由此判断 Main Street以前比较脏乱。答案为 C。由录音可知，街道两旁的树是 4-H女孩后来种上去的，故 A排除； B“最近刚被拓宽 ”以及 D“两旁有高楼 ”均未在录音提及，故排除。 【知识模块】 听

49、力 17 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 4-H女孩首 先清走了街道两旁的垃圾，之后就挖地种花，并且轮流浇水、除草以及维护。由此判断她们是通过种花来美化街道，因此答案为 B。女孩是清走了街道两边的 rocks“石块 ”，而非 “用石块重新铺路 ”， A错误： C“建公厕 ”和 D“在附近建烹饪设施 ”都出现在政府官员和这些女孩合作开展的活动中，与本题所问的 curbside无关，故排除。 【知识模块】 听力 18 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 录音提到，参与这个项目使女孩对自己家的外观形成了新的看法；让她们学会了怎样利用工具 (work with tool)；改善了她 们的劳动习惯。 C与第二点对应，故为答案。 A“什么使生活变得美好 ”录音没有提及； B利用录音中的community一词作干扰，录音提到的是在 Main Street劳动的经验鼓励了 4-H女孩以自己家和社区为荣，没有说让她们明白了 “社区的意义 ”，故排除 B；录音提到的是 “改善劳动习惯 ”，并非 D所说的 “改善健康 ”，故 D也排除。 【知识模块】 听力 19 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 录音提到，女孩们这么做是因为她们从这些建设性的工作的成果中获得了满足感。 D中的 hap
