【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文] If you are young and thinking about your career, you'll want to know where you could make a living. Well, there's going to be a technological replacement of a lot of knowledge-intensive jobs in the next twenty years, particularly in the two largest sectors of the labor force with professional skills—one is teaching, and the other, healthcare. You'll have so many applications and software and platforms that are going to come in and provide information and service in these two fields, which means a lot of healthcare and education sectors will be radically changed, and a lot of jobs will be lost. Now, where will the new jobs be found? Well, the one sector of the economy that can't be easily duplicated by even small technologies is the caring sector, the personal care sector. That is, you can't really get a robot to do a great massage or physical therapy. Or, you can't get the kind of personal attention you need with regard to therapy or any other personal service. There could be very high and personal services. Therapists do charge a lot of money. I think there's no limit to the amount of personal attention and personal care people would like if they could afford it. But, the real question in the future is, how come people afford these things if they don't have money, because they can't get a job that pays enough. That's why I wrote this book, which is about how to reorganize the economy for the future when technology brings about destructive changes to what we used to consider high-income work. Q: What does the speaker say will happen in the next twenty years? 1.四项都是描述性的陈述句，都描述了一种变化或趋势。 2.三项用了被动语态。 本题很可能以what提问，可能询问某种变化或趋势。听音时应注意将重点放在与四个选项相关的关键信息上。 题目问的是讲话者说在未来的20年中将会发生什么。文章开头部分提到：在未来的20年中将会有一大批知识密集型工作被技术取代，尤其是在两个需要专业技能的最大的劳动力领域——一个是教学，另一个是医疗保健。由此可知选项B正确。其他三个选项原文均未提及，均排除。

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文] Q: Where will young people have more chances to find jobs? 四项都是名词性短语，均表示抽象的地点。 本题很可能以where提问。听音时应注意将重点放在四个选项的关键信息上(robotics industry，information service，personal care sector，high-end manufacturing)。 题目问的是年轻人在哪里将有更多机会找到工作。文章中间部分直接提出问题Now，where will the new jobs be found?紧接着作了回答：有一个经济领域即便是通过很小的技术也不可能被轻易复制，那就是护理领域，私人护理领域。由此可知护理领域需要更多的人力而非技术去完成工作，也就有更多的工作机会，因此选项C正确。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文] Q: What does the speaker say about therapists? 四项都以they开头，都描述了they的特征。 本题考查的内容与they有关，可能涉及they某方面的特征。听音时应注意判断they的指代对象，并将重点放在四个选项的关键信息上(charge high prices，need lots of training，cater to the needs of young people，focus on customers' specific needs)。 题目问的是关于理疗师讲话者说了什么。文章后半部分提到了理疗师，说可能会有价格非常昂贵的私人服务。理疗师的确收费很高。由此可知选项A正确。其他三个选项原文均未提及，均排除。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文] Q: What is the speaker's book about? 1.四项都是含有修饰成分的名词性短语，都描述了一种现象或结果。 2.两项提到technology。 本题考查的内容可能是某种现象或结果，可能与技术有关，很可能是文章的某个细节，也有可能是文章的主旨。听音时应将重点放在四个选项的关键信息上(rising demand in education and healthcare，disruption caused by technology，tremendous changes，amazing amount of personal attention)。 题目问的是讲话者的书是关于什么内容的。文章最后讲话者交待前面所讲的一切就是为了说明写书的原因，并用一句话介绍了书的内容：这本书是关于当技术给我们过去认为的高薪工作带来毁灭性的变化时如何重组未来经济的。由此可知选项B正确。
