【答案解析】[听力原文] W: Bob, will you tell me something about the new intelligent house your company has just built? I heard that it promises to be a model for houses of the future. M: Certainly. The idea is not to have a house full of cleverly-designed device. This is a complete household system. It will make people's lives much easier. W: OK. So tell me how this house will make my life easier. M: When you arrive at the front door, you won't need a key. The door will open automatically with a touch of your finger; the system can recognize your fingerprint. You'll be able to call your refrigerator when you're in the supermarket and find out how much milk you still have and figure out how much you need to buy. Isn't that wonderful? W: Can I call the washing machine as well? M: Sure. But you won't need to. The house comes with a robot. You can call the robot directly and ask it to do what you want to do. W: What about household problems? M: Well, if a pipe breaks open, the house will call the property management agency. And if there's a fire, the house will turn on the fire extinguishers automatically and call the fire department. W: And what's the price of this intelligent house? M: A million dollars. W: A million dollars! It will be the 22nd century before I'll be able to afford one. What does the man say about the new intelligent house? 在介绍新智能房屋时,男士说它能使人们的生活变得更加便利。B的表述与此一致,故正确。 ①各选项都是对It的描述,由选项关键词house,architectural style等可判断,题目可能问及house的有关情况,听音时应注意记录相关信息。②男士介绍房屋的设计理念时提到,智能房子里不会堆满设计巧妙的装置,可见A错误;C、D对话中没有提到。

【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[听力原文] What convenience can the new intelligent house bring to one's life? 谈到新智能房屋给人们带来的便利时,男士谈了几点,其中一点是,只要用手指点一下,智能房屋的门就会自动打开,无需使用钥匙。A与此相符,故正确。 ①本题考查智能房屋带给人们的便利,属于细节匹配题。②男士提到,在超市你可以打电话给冰箱,查到牛奶还剩下多少,从而计算出需要买多少,而B说冰箱能计算出需要买多少牛奶,显然与男士意思不符;虽然男士提到了robot的功能,但没有说它能做所有家务,故C属于过度推理;智能房屋能自动打开灭火器,但不等于能在很短时间内把火扑灭,故D也有误。

【答案解析】[听力原文] Why needn't a host call the washing machine? 女士问出门在外能不能也打电话给洗衣机让它洗衣服,男士说当然可以,但是不需要这么做,因为家里有机器人,可直接打给机器人让它替你做你想干的活,D是对男士的话的概括,故为答案。 ①选项均用了can这个情态动词,可推断问题可能涉及某物具有某功能或某人拥有某能力,听音时要留意相关信息。②A中的automatically是在男士讲门会通过指纹而自动开启时听到,男士没讲到洗衣机会自动洗衣,故排除。B“主人可全凭自己洗衣”、C“洗衣机必要的时候会提醒主人洗衣”均没有在对话中提到。
