【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Was Robert elected to the committee? M: Yes. In fact he was made chairman. But he only agreed to take the job if they let him have the final say. Q: What does Robert intend to do? [解析] 选项均以To+原形动词开头表明,本题考查行为目的。[C]和[D]意思相近,都表示意见(决定)一致,故很可能都不是答案。解答此题的关键是理解男士话中的转折,其言外之意就是Robert让委员们按照他的意愿行事,故选[A]。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: You're going to make a trip to San Francisco, aren't you? W: Yes, but I haven't got the plane ticket yet. I'm thinking of postponing the trip to next month since this is the busiest month for the airlines. Q: What do we know about the woman from this conversation? [解析] 由选项中的trip,manage,change 可知,对话可能与女士能否去旅行有关,[D]却与此无关,故首先排除。再根据对话中提到的I'm thinking... busiest month for the airlines 可知,因为这个月是航空公司最忙的一个月,所以她决定把旅行推迟到下个月,故答案为[C]。
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Shall we go to John's house-warming party this weekend? Everyone is invited. W: Well, you know what John's parties are like. Do you think I will go again? Q: What can be inferred from the conversation? [解析] [A]和[D]均表示女士喜欢John的派对,而[B]则表示女士不喜欢John的派对,根据命题规律,[B]很可能是答案。再由对话中女士用反问语气Do you think I will go again?可知,她不会再参加 John的派对,故答案为[B]。
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for such a long time. I didn't think the meeting would be so long. W: That's all right, Dr. Green. I've got the data you required and a few reference books which I think may be useful to your representation at the conference. Q: What's the purpose of the woman's visit to the man? [解析] 选项均以To+原形动词开头表明,本题考查行为目的,且对话可能与男士参加会议有关。解答此题的关键是听到女土所说的got the data you required 和a few reference books,由此可知女士是来帮助男士准备会议演讲的,故选[A]。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Your mom is a mess. When is the last time you tidied your room? M: It was when Linda came over. She has been so helpful that I simply can't do without her. Q: What does the man mean? [解析] 分析选项可知,对话话题可能与男士打扫房间有关,故男士的话为听音重点。解答此题的关键是听到男士说It was when Linda came over(自从 Linda来了之后,我就没有打扫过房间),故选[C]。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Could you give me your office phone number or fax number so that we can contact each other more often? W: But I've been trying to find a new job in another company. You see I've worked here for 3 years without a raise. That's unfair to me. Q: What does the woman mean? [解析] 选项均表述的是女士的情况,故女士所说的话为听音重点。解答此题的关键是听到女士说她正在试图找工作,原因是她在现在的公司已经呆了三年,却没有晋升,觉得很不公平。言外之意是她很快就要辞职了,故选[D]。[B]和[C]是根据男士的话而设的干扰项。
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Sherry, how are you doing with your thesis? W: Oh, my thesis! That's something I definitely don't want to talk about right now. I finished my draft some time ago, but my supervisor said I should do more research if I want to achieve the quality he expects of me. Q: What do we learn from the conversation about the woman's thesis? [解析] 由选项中的research(研究), supervisor's expectations (导师的期望)可推断选项中的It很可能指代论文。[A]、[C]、[D]都暗示论文已经完成,而[B]却说的是论文在未来几周内完成,与其他选项明显不同,故可首先排除,解题关键是听到女士所说的... but my supervisor said... expects of me,由此可知[D]为答案。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: I think we should move on to the next item. W: Ok. But I'd like to take this matter up again at the end of the meeting. Q: What does the woman mean? [解析] 分析选项可知,对话可能与讨论议题有关。[B]和[C]表达的意思相矛盾,其中之一很有可能是答案。对话中男士说“我们应该讨论下一个议题,”女士用but委婉地拒绝了男士的建议,说想在会议结束时再讨论一下这个议题,故选[C]。
