判断题
判断题 Professor Wang went on a lecture tour to Edinburgh.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析]
W: Hello, Professor Wang. Nice to see you back again. How was your trip to Edinburgh?
M: It was fascinating. I didn't even think about coming back. I paid a visit to the University of Edinburgh, and spent three whole days lecturing on Chinese folklore to a group of international students.
W: Well done! Well, how did you like the city?
M: Very much indeed. It is a very attractive city. I spent one day in the city visiting those fantastic castles and museums. I never expected there to be so many places of interest in one city. And I was lucky as to have bumped into a former student of mine. He is doing his PhD at the Department of Applied Linguistics, Edinburgh University. He took me to the lake area the following day, where I saw elegant peaks, beautiful lakes and exotic rocks. It was very impressive.
W: That sounds inviting. I really envy you. I must make a trip to that area one of these days.
M: Are you kidding? I can't believe that as a native of England, you have never been to Edinburgh.
W: That's nothing strange about it. In fact, many foreigners have more opportunities to see Great Britain than many of the British who have lived here all their lives. Would you believe me that I have never been on board of a plane?
M: That is hard to believe. I always thought that you British have more opportunities to travel. However, I'll take your word for it.
W: Did you take any photo there?
M: Yes. I took a lot of pictures, some prints and some slides, too. It cost me a small fortune to have them developed and printed.
W: I believe it did. Everything is expensive in Britain. Well, may I have a look at your photos?
M: By all means. Here is my album.
W: Thank you. Say, Professor Wang, you are quite artistic. I like the way you arrange your photos. My world! You have lots of good shots here. I especially like this one. The castle looks so gracious against the blue sky and the white clouds.
M: We spent almost a whole morning at the Castle Museum. It was charming. When I got on top of the hill, I had a bird's-eye view of the city. It was incredibly beautiful
W: You certainly had a good time in Edinburgh. And it's so interesting for me to see things through a foreigner's eye. I am also quite impressed that you are such a good photographer.
M: Thank you. This trip has really helped me to know more about England. By the way, have you got the time?
W: It's a quarter to ten.
M: Oh, dear! I'm afraid I've got to fly. I have an appointment at ten...

对话第一个话轮中男士的第三句话指出:I paid a visit to... a group of international students,即他是去访问爱丁堡大学,并给那里的学生进行了三天的中国民俗讲座,因此题句是正确的。
判断题 Wang visited the lake area by himself.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】在第二个话轮中男士谈到自己遇到了以前的一名学生,然后He took me to the lake area the following day,即他是与那名学生一起去的湖区,而不是自己单独前往,因此题句是错误的。
判断题 Mrs Gross feels jealous of Wang as she herself has not visited Edinburgh.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】在第三个话轮中,女士用I really envy you(我真的很羡慕您)一句表达了自己的心情,并且在后一句(I must make a trip... these days)表明她未去过湖区,这就是她说“羡慕”的原因,故题句正确。
判断题 The British have more opportunities to see their country than foreign visitors.

判断题 Mrs Gross has never traveled by air before.
【正确答案】 A

判断题 It did cost Professor Wang much in taking and developing his photos.
【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】在第五个话轮中,男士指出洗印照片花了他不少钱:It cost me a small fortune to have them developed and printed,因此题句正确。有些考生选择错误,是因为他们没有理解a small fortune是个习语,指的是 a lot of money,但不是特别多。
判断题 Wang is quite reluctant to show Mrs Gross his pictures.
【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】在第六个话轮中女士要求看看男士的照片,男士回答说:By all means(尽管看),并且用Here is my album(这是我的影集)表明他乐意让女士看,因此题句是错误的。
判断题 Mrs Gross says she is particularly impressed by a photo showing a castle.

【正确答案】 B
【答案解析】在对话的最后一个话轮中,女士告诉男士时间,男士说:I'm afraid I've got to fly,其中的fly并不指“坐飞机”,而是说“赶快走”,并且其最后一句说明了原因:I have an appointment at ten(我十点钟有个约会)。因此题句是错误的。
