【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Peter has been working five part-time jobs since he started college.He was working all day yesterday.I don't see how he does it.
M: Yeah…me either.He went back to his dormitory 10 p.m. I don't see how anyone can keep up this pace of life.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
[解析] 本题关键是要听到女士说的five part-time jobs(五份兼职工作)及男士说的“我不明白怎么有人能跟上这样的生活节奏”,由此可知Peter非常忙碌,故A正确。
[点睛] 预读选项可知,问题与Peter有关。从对话中能客观地得知Peter非常忙,而不能确定Peter是否努力工作,故可排除强干扰项C。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Excuse me.madam.Can I buy a ticket direct from here to Cleveland?
W: Yes,but you will have to transfer at Seattle to a domestic airline.But that's no problem.They fly quite often.
Q: What would the man most probably do?
[解析] 本题关键在于听到女士说的“但你得在西雅图转机”,B中的take a connecting flight与对话中transfer同义,故B为答案。
[点睛] 原形动词选项,与搭乘飞机有关。男士可以在这里直接买到飞往克里夫兰的机票,但不等于他可以直接飞往克里夫兰,他还需要转机,A与文意相反,C不符合文意,D利用原词进行干扰。“中but”题,but后面往往是答案。
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Hi.I have a map of the campus,but I still can't find the building with the new library in it.Can you tell me how to get there?
M: That's because it's an old map.Follow me, I'm going that way myself.
Q: What does the man mean?
[解析] 男士说“跟着我走吧,我自己也要去那边(即图书馆)”,即D。
[点睛] 选项以He作主语,本题与map或library有关。对一般疑问句不正面做出回答,要么就是否定,要么就是带条件的肯定,此处属于带条件的肯定,此处男士说了一句Follow me,I' going that way myself.可知他也要往图书馆走。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: I hear a newly-invented drug can make people tell the truth and it may prove useful in questioning terrorists.Isn't it incredible?
W: Simple solutions to complex problems rarely succeed.As far as I know, no such drugs are ever Known to work.
Q: What does the woman imply about the new drug?
[解析] 对于男士提到的新发明的测谎药,女士说“用简单的方法来解决复杂的问题,很少会成功。据我所知,还没有出现过具有这种功效的药。”其言外之意是这种药很可能会被证明无效,即B。
[点睛] 选项均以It作主语,描述It的作用或性质,听时要注意确认It的所指。A过于绝对化,可先排除;C与女士的想法相反;D更是断章取义。
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: I can't believe I have almost spent all $9,000 of my student loan.That money was supposed to last me all year.
W: Maybe you should start thinking twice before you spend money, like you've been told time and time again.
Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
[解析] 男士说他提前花完几乎所有的学生贷款,女士说“也许你在花钱时应该三思而后行”。其言外之意是,男士应该合理地用钱,即A。
[点睛] 原形动词选项,常问建议或行动。情态动词should后的内容就是女士的具体建议,为答案所在。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Your stereo is too loud.The neighbors just called to complain,you know.
M: Oh,yeah? I'll turn it down when they do something about their dog which keeps me awake all night with its backing.
Q: What does the man imply?
[解析] 女士说“你的音响声音太大了,邻居刚刚打电话来抱怨。”男士说“当他们对那只吠叫不停使我整夜无法入眠的狗做点什么的时候,我就会把音量调小。”其潜台词是“邻居的抱怨是不合理的,他们的狗更吵”,故选C。
[点睛] 预读选项可知,本题与stereo,disturbs,neighbors,complaining有关。男士没有直接答应女士的要求,而是说当……时(when…)才会关小音量,when后面的内容是答题的关键所在。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: You know.every time I see you reviewing the notes I will wonder whether I'm behind.Are we really on Unit 6 already?
W: What do you mean? I have to stay ahead. I work in the evenings.
Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?
[解析] 女士说“我必须提前学习。我晚上要工作。”这也就是说,她晚上没时间学习。因此,C正确。
[点睛] 预读选项可知,本题与She,study有关。怀疑自己在学习上可能落后(behind)的是男士,不是女士,故A错;B与文意相反;D未提及。女士没有正面回答男士的问题,而是先问“你什么意思?”,然后解释说明,其解释说明即是答题的关键所在。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Something is definitely bugging you.Why are you walking up and down the room?
M: It's this presentation I have to give tomorrow.I'm a bit worried but I'll get over it by then.
Q: What does the man mean?
[解析] 男士提到明天要做报告(presentation),解答本题的关键在于理解男士说的“我有点紧张,但到时我会克服紧张情绪的”。B表达的正是此义,故为答案。
[点睛] 预读可知,选项关键词为He,presentation,tomorrow,nervous。A、D都是干扰项,男士并非在写报告;C中的原因对话中未提及。B恰好是原文的另一种表达。
