16、 be replaced, or transferred from one person to another.

17、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.

19、符。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 3 【正确答案】 D 【试 题解析】 原文提到眼睛只有部分结构可以移植， D中的 only partly为原文only certain parts的同义替换，故答案为 D。 A“即使运用高科技也永远无法做到 ”中的 never与短文末尾处的 may be possible“有可能实现 ”不符： B“是恢复受损视力的最好方法 ”和 C“是眼睛外科手术中的主要成就 ”均未提及，应一并排除。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 4 【听力原文】 When people care for an elderly relative, they often do not use avail

20、able community services such as adult day-care centers.

What does the speaker say about the two pregnant women working with paint? 25. Why did the workers in the firm wear ski-clothing to work?

33、 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 原文提到，自从工会代表到访并告知我们的权利与保护措施后，员工们一直在担心健康状况并抱怨工作场所的安全风险，此为该短文的主题句，下文的内容均围绕此展开，答案为 A。主旨题常可从听力文章开头获取答案，应留意听总结性的话语。 B“公司雇员的权利与责任 ”、 C“办公室员工的普遍抱怨 ”和D“员工与管理层之间的冲突 ”与录音主旨不符。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 原文提到，这位员工要求公司更换过时的设备。 A与原文内容完全一致，故正确。 B“改进受影响员工的福利 ”、 C“严格遵守政府规章 ”和 D“提供额外的健康补偿 ”均属主观臆

36、sentation went extremely well.

The district

37、 manager is the key to the success of the sales representatives in his district. He sets the term for everyone else. If he has ambitious goals and is willing to put in long hours, everyone in his unit will follow his example.“ When Alex was finished, he received polite applause, but hardly the warm

38、response he had hoped for. Later he spoke with one of the senior managers. “Things were going so well until the end,“ Alex said disappointedly. “Obviously, I said the wrong thing.“ “Yes,“ the district manager replied. “Half of our managers are women.

40、nt to emphasize at the end of his presentation? 18. What do we learn about the audience at the meeting? 19. Why did Alex fail to receive the warm response he had hoped for? 11 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 短文一开始就提到 Alex Gordon期待与公司区域经理的第一次会议。因此答案为 A。 B“常客 ”、 D“高级职员 ”原文均没有提及； C“销售主管 ”是Alex Gordon的职务，而不是其他与会人员的身份。

41、【知识模块】 听力篇章 12 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 短文提到，他决定在会议结束前谈一下区域经理对于公司计划的重要性。因此答案为 D。注意 D将原文的 importance换成了 important。 A中的 “常客 ”原文未提及； B“销售代表表现出的主动性 ”中的 sales representatives虽在原文出现，但并未提及 initiative问题； C“执行公司计划的迫切性 ”中的 companys plans虽出现，但并未提及执行问题，故均排除。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 13 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 短文提到，区域经理中有一半是女性。因此答案为 B。 B中的 f

43、”都没有在文中提到。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 15 【听力原文】 The way to complain is to act business-like and important.

And then state your problem and

44、 what you expect to have done about it. Be polite! Shouting or acting rude will get you nowhere. But also be firm in making your complaint. Besides, act important. This doesnt mean to put on airs and say “do you know who I am?“ What it means is that people are often treated the way they expect to be

45、 treated. If you act like someone who expects a fair request to be granted, chances are it will be granted. The worst way to complain is over the telephone. You are speaking to a voice coming from someone you cannot see. So you cant tell how the person on the line is reacting. It is easy for that pe

46、rson to give you the run-around. Complaining in person or by letter is generally more effective. If your complaint doesnt require an immediate response, it often helps to complain by letter.

48、ke a complaint by letter? 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 短文开头处说，如果在饭店里侍应生上错了菜，就要坚决并礼貌地要求见经理。所以答 案为 C。应抓住关键词 polite， firm和 manager，选项只不过将两个形容词换成了副词。 A中的 head waiter、 B中的 discount原文中均未提及； D中的 ask the name虽在文中提到，但上下文指的是问经理的姓名，而非侍应生的姓名。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 16 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 短文提到通过电话投诉是最糟糕的方式，你看不到你说话的对象，所以你也无法判断电话那头的人有什么反应

49、。所以答案为 D。注意因果处常考，且本题符合短文听力 “听到什么选什么 ”的原则，答案与原 文完全一样。 A“你的问题没有被正确理解 ”、 B“你不知道你是否在合适的时间投诉 ”以及 C“接受你投诉的人可能不是负责人 ”在原文中并未提及。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 17 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 短文结尾处提到，给商店写投拆信时，要以公事公办的态度说话，不要离题。所以答案为 D。短文听力结尾处常考，且本题符合短文听力 “听到什么选什么 ”的原则，只要抓住原文的 stick to the point就可以做出正确的选择。 A“要求快速答复 ”和 C“用快递送信 ”原文未提及； B“提供所有的细节 ”与原文相悖。 【知识模块】 听力篇章 18 【听力原文】 Barbara Sanders is a wife and the mother of two children, ages 2 and 4.
