B、 He's just had his picture taken.
C、 He's on the way to the theater.

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Hi, Michael, I can hardly recognize you. Why are you dressed up today? Are you going to the theatre? M: No, actually, I just had an interview at the photo studio this morning. [精解] 题干问：“从对话中我们了解迈克尔什么?”对话中女士问：“嗨，迈克尔，我几乎认不出你了，你为什么今天西装革履啊?你要去电影院吗?”男士说：“实际不是，我今天上午刚在摄影室接受了一个采访。”听男士的答话可知，他刚从一个采访中回来，本题我们要听清男士话中的时态“had”就不难得出答案。

单选题 What does the man mean?

A、 The woman can tell Joan when she sees her at noon.
B、 The woman should tell Joan's brother about the reception.
C、 The woman must call on Joan after the reception.
D、 The woman may see Joan's brother at lunch.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文] W: I ought to call Joan and tell her about the reception of this evening. M: Why bother? You'll see her at lunch. [精解] 题干问：“男士的意思是什么?”对话中女士说：“我必须打电话给琼，告诉她今晚的招待会。”男士说：“何必麻烦呢?你在午饭的时候就会见到她。”why bother的意思是“何必麻烦呢”，含义是否定的，是建议某人不要做出现在其前面的对话者所说的事。所以本题答案选A。

单选题 What is the woman doing?

A、 Playing the piano.
B、 Making a photocopy.
C、 Typing.
D、 Taking a picture.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文] M: Could you show me that once more? W: Sure. Put the paper into the machine. Set your margin. Put your fingers on the keys. Now you're ready.z [精解] 题干问：“女士正在做什么?”本题对话中含有一系列动作，解这类题的方法主要是根据录音中提到的具体动作和关键词汇，去寻找它们与卷面上的四个选项的联系。思维方法有两种：其一是排除法，边听录音，边将错误选项排除。例如听到本题中的paper即可将A、D排除，也可进一步利用下一句的set your margin；再听到put your fingers on the keys时，进一步将B排除。第二种方法是将录音听完，进行综合归纳，找出正确答案。不过通常可以两者并用。故C为正确答案。

单选题 How does the woman feel about the man's remark?

A、 She thinks it is easier said than done.
B、 She totally agrees with him.
C、 She feels that what he says is simply nonsense.
D、 She thinks that he is a rather impolite person.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文] M: It's partly your own fault. You should never let in anyone like that unless you're expecting him. W: It's all very well to say that, but someone comes to the door and says "electricity" or "gas" and you automatically think he is OK, especially if he shows you a card. [精解] 题干问：“女士对男士的话有何感想?”对话中男士说：“有部分是你自己的错误。你不应该让像那样的人进来，除非你期望他进来。”女士说：“说得容易，但有些人来到门前说‘电费’或‘燃气’，你自然会认为他没有问题，特别当他出示名片的时候。”与上题相反，这个对话偏长，干扰信息多，对考生会造成一些影响。本题的关键在于把握it's all very well to say…but…这个句型，这是表示不赞成、不满意的委婉说法，但并非完全否定。

单选题 Why didn't Sandy accept the invitation?

A、 She's afraid of going out at night.
B、 She had to do some baking.
C、 She wanted to get ready for a plane trip.
D、 She was moving to a new apartment.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】[听力原文] M: How about going to dinner and a movie with me tonight, Sandy? W: I'd love to, but I haven't packed yet and my flight leaves at five am. [精解] 题干问：“桑迪为什么不接受邀请?”通过pack和flight两个词判定这与plane trip有关，从而选定正确答案C。
