单选题

单选题 Where does this conversation most probably take place?

A、 At an art gallery.
B、 In a department store.
C、 In a bookstore.
D、 In a workshop.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Can you tell me the title of this oil painting?
W: Sorry, I don't know for sure, but I guess it is an 18th century work. Let me look it up in the catalog.

本题的关键词是男士话语中的oil painting(油画)、女士回答中的an 18th century work(18世纪的作品)及catalog(目录)，这些都与艺术画廊这一地点有关。

单选题 What do we learn from the conversation?

A、 The woman is a close friend of the man.
B、 The woman has been working too hard.
C、 The woman is seeing a doctor.
D、 The woman is tired of her work.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Hello, Mrs White, what can I do for you?
W: I don't know what's the matter with me. I'm always feeling tired, I'm usually worn out at the end of the day.
M: I see. Let me take your pulse rate first.

本题属于人物关系题，关键在于听清女士话中的feeling tired与worn out两个表身体状态的短语，及男士回答中的take your pulse rate这样一个表征明显的医生用语。

单选题 What will the man most probably do?

A、 Get some change from Jane.
B、 Go to look for a pay phone.
C、 Use the woman's phone.
D、 Pay for the phone call.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Hi, Jane, do you have some changes? I have to make a call on the pay phone.
W: Pay phone? Why not use my mobile phone? Here you are.

本题关键在于听懂女士回答中why not use my mobile phone这一建议用语及后面的here you are(给你)，由此可推知男士会用女士的手机打电话。

单选题 Why is the man calling the campus newspaper office?

A、 Because he wants to buy an I-phone.
B、 Because he wants to contribute an article to the newspaper.
C、 Because he wants to advertise a sale.
D、 Because he wants to buy a newspaper.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Good morning, Campus Evening News. Can I help you?
M: Yes, I'd like to place an ad. I want my ad to say, "I-phone for sale. Apple 2010. Call 87310653 after 7:30 p. m."

本题较为容易，考生只要听清了男士话语中的I want my ad to say，“I-phone for sale...”即可作答。男士是要登出售广告而非购物广告，[A]项的迷惑性较强，很多考生误选。

单选题 What does the woman mean?

A、 Young people are too quick in making decisions.
B、 Young people seldom stay long on the same job.
C、 Young people lose their jobs easily.
D、 Young people are too eager to succeed.

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: It was the third time Ranger had phoned me to say he had a new job.
W: It's difficult to keep a young man in one job for life nowadays.

本题需要听懂女士的对话内容并进行一定的推理。女士的回答是用肯定形式表达否定含意，“很难让年轻人一辈子待在一个工作岗位上”的意思就是“年轻人很少有人长时间做同一工作”。
