【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: WelI, I pretty .much know what I'm going to take but what a day, eh? Registering is so stressful. Can't there be another way?
W: Telephone registration would mean we didn't have to deal with all the same headaches.
Q: What does the woman mean?

[解析] 选项表明对话很可能涉及到电话登记 (Telephone registration)的利或弊，[B]与此无关，故可初步排除。[A]、[D]对电话登记持肯定态度，[C)对电话登记持否定态度。根据“同时与两个选项意思相反的选项往往不是答案”的原则，[C]也可排除。女士所说的didn't have to deal with all the same headaches说明电话登记更简单方便(much easier)。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: You've been at university for over a year. Have you had any problems adjusting to campus life?
W: Well, you know we all have our ups and downs but none to speak of.
Q: What does the woman mean?

[解析] [B]、[C]、[D]三项都表明女士遇到了一些问题，[A]项与此相反且表述过于绝对，故很可能不是答案。ups and downs本意为“盛衰，浮沉”，此处相当于选项中的problems。“none/ nothing to speak of”意为“不值一提”，由此可知，女士的we all have…but…是说：困难的确有，但都不是什么大问题(hasn't had any major problems)。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: I hear you have dropped out of the marching band? But I thought you loved it. All the traveling, playing before big crowds.
M: I do. But with all that time away from my studies my grades are really starting to slip.
Q: What does the man mean?

[解析] 选项表明对话很可能涉及到男士在乐队与学习之间做出的选择。结合女士所说的you have dropped out of the marching band和男士回答的my grades are really starting to slip可知，男士是因为学习上的原因(for academic reasons)退出乐队的(quit the band)。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: I'm going over to see a car someone has for sale. With all your experience as a mechanic, I'd appreciate your opinion.
M: That was twenty years ago. Cars have changed so much. I'm not sure how much help I might be, but sure I'll come along for the ride.
Q: What does the man imply?

[解析] 从选项来看，对话主题可能与车有关，其中两个选项以He开头，所以听的过程中要重点留意男士的话。综合男士话中的客观事实(Cars have changed so much)和其主观认识(I'm not sure how much help I might be)可知，他对现在的新款车了解不多(doesn't know a lot about new cars)。

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Congratulations, Tom. I heard you got a job with the Wilson Company.
M: Hmm, thanks, Prof. Smith, but it's a little too soon for congratulations. All I got so far is an interview, early next week, on Tuesday.
Q: What does the man imply?

[解析] 根据选项中的job及job interview推断，对话应与工作或面试有关。He或His开头提示听音时要重点留意男士的话。男士话中的but转折处为考查要点，其后的All I got so far is an interview表明教授把有关他工作的事弄错了 (was mistaken about the job)。it's a little too soon for…意为“现在…还为时过早”。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: I'm really torn. I need a new bicycle, and I just can't decide which one to get. There are just too many different kinds to choose from.
W: As far as I am concerned, a bike is a bike; it's just transportation.
Q: What does the woman mean?

[解析] 选项[A]、[B)、[C]均与男士买自行车有关，而[D]只宽泛地到了交通方式问题(means of transportation)，故[D]可初步排除。另外， [B]、[C]都表示支持男士买自行车，而[A]是说男士不买自行车也可以，与[B]、[C]意思相反，故 [A]也很可能不是答案。女士话中的a bike is a bike意思是“不过是一辆自行车而已”，just也是表示强调语气的词，这都暗示男士不该过于挑剔 (should not be so particular about)。

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: I gave the student, loans office so much information and so many statements. So why do they need more documentation? All I am asking for is a few thousand extra on my loan application.
M: You know how it is — that's the way things work over there. They just need to see that everything is on the right track before they approve things.
Q: What does the man mean?

[解析] 根据选项中的student loans和loan application推测，对话应与申请助学贷款有关。男士告之女士that's the way things work over there(那儿的程序就是这样)以及They need to see that everything is on the right track(一切都要符合正确的方式)，这表明贷款的相关规定不具有私人性(requirements are nothing personal)，而且贷款部门的手续很严格(is always strict)。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Gregory will be leaving this Sunday and it's also his birthday. I'm thinking of throwing him a farewell and birthday party.
M: That's a good idea. We can arrange that. But in the mean time, let's just keep it between the two of us.
Q: What does the man suggest they should do?

[解析] 选项表明对话与筹划一次派对有关。女士打算组织一次聚会为Gregory送行并庆祝其生日，男士非常赞成，但强调说just keep it between the two of us，可见他不想让别人知道开派对这件事，即要保守秘密(Keep the party a secret)。
