【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[听力原文] 11-13
W: Have you ever been to New Orleans?
M: No. What is it like?
W: It's one of the most interesting cities in the United States. It has a French Quarter, with narrow streets and little shops. Many of the shops and restaurants are French.
M: There's a lot of jazz music in New Orleans, isn't there?
W: Yes. You hear wonderful jazz there. New Orleans and San Francisco are my two favorite cities. Have you been to San Francisco?
M: No. What is it like?
W: It has lovely views, and one of the most beautiful bridges in the world — the Golden Gate Bridge. It's a very hilly city. The hills are in the middle of the town, so you have to walk up and down hills when you go anywhere. When you arrive, your car needs good brakes.
M: Do you have to drive? Can't you take buses?
W: Well, most people who visit San Francisco ride in the cable cars. A cable car goes on tracks, and a strong cable pulls it up the hills.
M: That doesn't sound very safe.
W: Don't worry. Hundreds of people ride in cable cars every day.

本题为细节题。前三个话轮谈论的是New Orleans(新奥尔良)。在第二个话轮中，女士的第二句话明确指出：It has a French Quarter，with narrow streets and little shops，因此本题答案就是[B]。注意，其余三项都有部分信息属于原文中所没有的：[A]项中的French people、[C]项中的foreign(原文为French)、[D]项中的bands(乐队)，因此都不对。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】对话的后几个话轮涉及的是San Francisco(旧金山)这个城市。在第四个话轮中，女士首先指出It has...one of the most beautiful bridges in the world，而[B]项正是这一意思的概括，只是表述不同而已。误选其他几项的考生不少，多是没有真正听懂整个对话。[A]项中的built in the mountains是对对话中出现的hills一词的曲解；[C]项迷惑性较大，但后文中说明其交通方便，因此not easy语出无据；[D]项则根据常识即可排除，一个城市不可能没有公交服务的。

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】本题在题目设计上有点出乎考生意料，因为它又回复考查前几个话轮中出现的信息，而不是根据信息出现顺序设题的常规设题法。事实上，本对话涉及的是两个城市的对比，因此对它们之间细节信息进行对比考查的题目放在最后也没有什么不妥，考生需要加以注意。Jazz(music)这一信息只在前几个话轮介绍New Orleans时出现，因此答案无疑是[B]。
