单选题 Which of the following is INCORRECT about Fidesz?
  • A. It got a victory in Hungary's parliamentary elections.
  • B. It has held office for eight years.
  • C. It is expected to win between 54% and 57% of the vote.
  • D. It may become the first party to govern without a coalition since 1990.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文] Exit polls following Hungary's parliamentary elections suggest that voters have rejected the governing Socialists who have been in power during the severe economic crisis in the country. The exit polls point to a convincing victory for the conservative opposition party, Fidesz, which may become the first party to govern without a coalition since democracy was restored in 1990. Voting was extended in several places beyond the deadline as long queues formed. Separate exit polls forecast the return to power of Fidesz, the Christian Democratic Party which last held office eight years ago. They are expected to win between 54% and 57% of the vote. The Socialists are a distant second with around 20% and the far-right Jobbik close behind them with between 15% and 17% according to the exit polls. 信息辨认题。新闻中提到公民党(Fidesz)在选举中获得了令人信服的胜利，或许可以成为自1990年恢复民主制以来第一个不需结盟统治的政党，重新回归八年前的执政地位，它预期将赢得54%到57%的选票。因此A、D、C均正确，B错误，为答案。
单选题 Which of the following parties mentioned get the least vote based on the exit polls?
  • A. Fidesz.
  • B. The Christian Democratic Party.
  • C. Socialists.
  • D. Jobbik.
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】信息转述题。题干关键词为the least。新闻最后部分公布了各个党派获得的选票情况：公民党(Fidesz)赢得54%到57%的选票；社会党(Socialists)赢得20%；极端右翼党约比克(far-right Jobbik)赢得15%至17%。听音后可知，B The Christian Democratic Party与A Fidesz属于同一政党。因此获得选票最少的是D Jobbik。

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】[听力原文] Tens of thousands of opposition supporters in Albania have rallied in the center of the capital Tirana, saying they'll stay there in protest of alleged ballot rigged by the government in last year's elections. A sea of protesters waving Socialist Party flags have gathered here in Tirana, walking from the central square to the prime minister's office where the party leader will address the faithful. Banners accusing the prime minister of fraud and of damaging the economy lined the routes. The participants are calling for the ballot boxes from last year's elections to be reopened, something the governing Democrats have refused. After months of the Socialists boycotting parliament, Albania is facing serious political deadlock, damaging its hopes of moving forward towards European Union membership. 信息转述题。根据新闻内容可知，反对派支持者举行集会的目的是抗议去年选举中政府操纵投票，要求重新计票，因此答案为B。其中a recount of last year's elections是文中the ballot boxes... reopened的同义转述。
