单选题 How did the man cut himself?
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】[听力原文]11-14
M: Ow ! That hurts !
W: What happened? Did you cut yourself?
M: Yes. On the edge of this paper. How can such a little cut hurt so much? I'm not even bleeding, but my finger really hurt.
W: You know, I read something about that. It turns out that a little cut on a finger can hurt a lot more than a big cut somewhere else.
M: Why? That doesn't make any sense.
W: Actually, it does. There are more nerve endings in your hands than almost anywhere else in the body, and it's the nerve endings that allow you to feel pain.
M: I guess that's tree.
W: Also, a little cut like yours won't damage the nerve endings, just irritate them. If they were damaged, you'd feel less pain, but the wound could be more serious.
M: So I suppose I should be happy my finger hurts so much, right?
W: Right. Now go get yourself a bandage.
M: Why? You just told me it's not serious.
W: It's not, but it does seem to be bothering you. Putting a bandage over the cut will keep the skin from drying and will help keep the skin together. If the skin stays together, the nerve endings won't be exposed, and the cut will hurt less.

对话中明确说男生的伤是由于“on the edge of this paper”弄伤的。所以选择D项。
单选题 What surprised the man?
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】男生说“How can such a little cut hurt so much? I'm not even bleeding,but my finger really hurts.”意思是“这个小伤口怎么会这么痛?我甚至都没有流血,但我的手指真是很痛。”这里hurt的意思是“疼痛”的意思。所以一个小小的伤口会让他很痛,他感到很以外。A选项是正确的。
单选题 According to the woman, what determines how painful a cut is?
【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】对话中女生对于造成疼痛的原因解释是“There are more nerve endings in your hands than almost any where else in the body,and it's the nerve endings that allow you to feel pain.”正是由于手上比身体其他部位有更多的神经末梢,而就是这些神经末梢会造成疼痛。所以选择D项。
单选题 What advice does the woman give the man?
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】对话中女生建议男生缠上绷带,因为绷带可以使皮肤密合,而“If the skin stays together,the nerve endings won't be exposed,and the cut will hurt less.”意思是“如果皮肤密合在一起,则神经末梢就不会暴露,于是伤口就会疼得轻些。”因而选择C项。
