【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Isn't the Changjiang River twenty-five thousand kilometres long? W: Oh, no, it's not as long as that. It's about a quarter the length you said.
此题考查的重点是长度计算。对话中男士问长江是不是25 000千米,女士首先就给出了否定,然后告知男士它是“a quarter the length you said”,所以长江应该长6 000多千米。

What did the man say about his dictionary?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文] W: I wonder ii I could borrow your dictionary? M: You certainly could if I had one, but I lost my old one yesterday and I haven't bought a new one yet.
女士向男士借词典,男士首先用虚拟语气表示了自己的遗憾(if I had one),由这一点考生即应当能推断出结果是否定的;然后男士进一步解释了原因:I lost my old one... a new one yet,即昨天把旧词典丢了,还没买新的。因此答案就是[C]。
