单选题 Questions 18~21 are based on the following speech.
单选题 Who is Smith speaking to?
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文]18-21
Hello, I'm Harold Smith. As the editor of The Voice, I'd like to introduce you to our campus daily. We need volunteers to assist us in keeping the student body informed through our newspaper. Experience isn't absolutely necessary, but writing and typing skills are in great demand. We need people to rewrite articles, type, and proof-read. We could also use a good photographer. Although many of our staff members are journalism majors, we also have several engineers and a pre-law student working for us. Since The Voice comes out five days a week, we need excellent students who know how to budget their time efficiently. Good grades are a prerequisite for working on the paper. There is some money for salaries depending on how involved you get with the paper, but don't expect to get rich. This isn't something you do for the money. Mostly it's just for fun. Anyone who is interested in joining the staff should speak to me immediately after this meeting. Be prepared to start right away. The first issue goes to press tomorrow.

本题要求考生在理解短文大意的基础上判断这篇讲话的听众。这是一则招募学生报纸志愿工作者的动员演说,因此其听众肯定是学生。注意选项[C] 中的faculty意为“全体教员”。
单选题 How many days a week is The Voice printed?
【正确答案】 C

单选题 What is most likely the best reason for joining the staff?
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】独白后半部分指出:尽管根据志愿者的工作量会有部分薪水,但不要指望靠这个来赚钱。由此及常识可以推断出学生加入的原因应是获得经验。
单选题 When should volunteers expect to begin working?
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】短文倒数第二句指出:Be prepared to start right way,其中的right away就是选项[A] 的immediately。[B] 项干扰性较大,但它是指报纸的第一期明天出版,而不是志愿者开始工作的时间。
