【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Could you tell me the way to any branch of Bank of China? W: There's one two blocks away, near the post office. Q: Where does the man want to go?
[解析] 本题考查的是对专有名词的理解。关键词Bank of China(中国银行)是银行名称，对话中男士是要找一所中国银行的支行。所以正确答案是选项B(去一家银行)。 [避错指南] 选项D(去一家邮局)干扰性较强，因为女士在对话中虽然提到了post office，但那是为了说明银行在邮局的附近，所以排除；选项A(去河岸)误解了bank的词义，对话中bank指的是银行，选项A是对对话中个别词语的随意拼凑；选项C(去一个分支机构)只听到了对话中的只言片语，因此以上选项均为错误选项。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Good morning. Anything I can do for you? W: I'd like to buy a watch for my boyfriend. Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
[解析] 本题考查的是地点。从对话内容可以看出，女士要给自己的男朋友买手表，所以对话发生的地点很可能是在department store(百货商店)，因此，正确答案是选项C。 [避错指南] 选项A(学校)、B(医院)和D(宾馆)这些场所均不属于买卖场所，所以在听清楚buy a watch这一关键短语之后都不难排除掉。
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: The book costs $12, but I only have $9. Could you help me? W: No problem. Q: How much does the man need to borrow from the woman?
【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Mary's CD player doesn't seem to work well. W: Yes, it's very old . I'm surprised that she's still using it. Q: What does the woman mean?
[解析] 本题考查的是推理能力。对话中，男士说“玛丽的CD机不太好用了。”女士说“是啊，她的CD机太旧了，我觉得奇怪她怎么还在用呢!”因此可以判断选项C(玛丽应该买一个新的CD机。)表达的正是女士的言下之意。 [避错指南] 选项D(她对男士所说的事感到很惊讶。)比较具有迷惑性，需要分清女士到底为什么感到惊讶，对照“Mary's CD player doesn't seem to work well.”和“she's still using it”。虽然两者有一定关联，但女士surprise的是后者，而不是前者(男士的话)；选项B(B她觉得玛丽的CD机很好。)明显与她对男士意见的附和以及她话语中old一词互相矛盾；而选项A(她不喜欢玛丽的工作。)则是混淆词义的干扰项，注意当work的主语是物时往往表示该物的状况和性能的好坏，与人无关。
【正确答案】
