【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: How many people took part in the conference?
W: We had expected 40 people, but only 25 people turned up.
Q: How many people were absent from the conference?
[解析] 本题考查的是数字计算。关键词语:expect(预期),turn up(出现)和absent from(缺席的)。对话中说明应到会的人数为40,但是只有25人到场,而题目问的是“有多少人缺席会议?”因此选项C(15人)为正确答案。
[避错指南] 对于计算题,重点是抓住问题问的是哪个数字,再对应地进行计算,有时应避免听到什么数字就选什么。就本题而言,应注意排除干扰项A(40人)和B(25人)。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: May I speak to Alan Green?
W: Sorry, There is nobody by that name working here.
Q: What can we learn from the woman's words?
[解析] 本题考查的是推理能力。从对话内容看,男士打电话想找一位名叫艾伦·格林的人,关键在于女士的回答“对不起,我们这里没有叫这个名字的人。”因此可以推断出,男士可能拨错电话号码了,正确答案应为选项B。“Nobody by that name works/lives here.”和“You've got/dialed the wrong number.”都可以用来回答打错的电话。
[避错指南] 选项A(女士将去叫艾伦·格林来接电话。)可首先排除,因为对话中的nobody指明根本没有这个人;选项C(艾伦·格林已经不在那里工作了。)是错误选项,因为该选项中的not... any more表示“曾经……但现在不……”,但对话中并没有提到艾伦曾在那里工作,所以也可以排除;选项D(女士不认识艾伦·格林。)因为根本没有这个人,因此也就不存在认识不认识的问题。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Room service? I would like to order lunch please.
W: No problem, sir. May I have your name and loom number please?
Q: Where do you think the woman is working?
[解析] 本题考查的是地点。题目询问“你认为女士在哪里工作?”关键单词是room service(客房服务部),这是旅馆业的常用语,再结合女士在回应时要求对方提供房间号,从而可以确定接电话的女士应该是宾馆客房服务部的职员,所以正确答案为选项B(在旅馆)。
[避错指南] 选项A(在餐馆)比较具有迷惑性,因为对话中提到order lunch(预订午餐),在此要特别注意细节信息;选项C(在飞机上)和D(在医院)都和对话含义相差较远。
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: I wonder if you'd mind my opening the door.
W: Oh, no. Go ahead, please.
Q: What does the woman want the man to do?
[解析] 本题考查的是对某些特殊词汇的理解。mind用在否定句或疑问句中时,具有“反对”、“介意”这样的否定意义。本题中男士问女士是否介意他把门打开,女士回答“Oh, no. Go ahead, please.”可知她同意男士去把门打开,go ahead原意是“前进”,经常用在口语中表示鼓励对方做(说)下去或者同意对方的请求。题目问女士想让男士做什么,因此选项B(开门)为正确答案。
[避错指南] 选项A(关上门),根据对话内容可以判断门本来就是关着的,所以排除;选项D(不要开门)与正确答案正好相反;选项C(走到门外去)只是拼凑了对话中的个别单词,意思完全与对话内容无关。
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Amy, why were you late for class this morning?
W: I missed the bus.
Q: Why was Amy late?
[解析] 本题考查对关键词汇的理解以及推理能力。对话中艾米回答她迟到的原因是“I missed the bus.”(我错过了公共汽车。)miss在此意为“错过”,即没有赶上,所以选项A(她没有赶上公共汽车。)为正确答案。
[避错指南] 选项C(她把书本落在车上了。)虽然也出现了miss这个单词,但是在此意为“将……遗失在……”,况且对话中也没有提到书本;选项B(她忘记了她有课。)和D(公共汽车晚点了。)对话中都没有提及。
