W: Could you tell me how many of your employees are women?
M: Yes, certainly. We have a very high percentage of female staff. We employ about 100 people, and eighty percent of them are women.

[解析] 本题要求进行简单计算，难度不大。应注意问题中问的是有多少男雇员。注意关键句We employ about 100 people and eighty percent of them are women．“我们有100名雇员，其中百分之八十是女性，故有百分之二十是男雇员”。

【正确答案】 B

W: It's good to see you again. What are you doing these days? You're still working at the same place, aren't you? M: Yes, I am. And I'm counting the days until retirement.

[解析] 男士所说I'm counting the days until retirement．意为“我在数日子，直到退休”，言外之意是他将退休。

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Where have you been all this time? The train is about to leave.
W: I'm sorry I am late, but I was waiting for you at the information desk upstairs. It's lucky I thought to look for you here on the platform.

[解析] 听懂问题是答对本题的关键。问题是“女士认为他们本应在哪里会面?”短语be supposed to意为“本应该，被期望”。答案在于but I was waiting for you at the information desk upstairs“但我一直在楼上的问讯处等你”，可见女士认为他们应在问讯处见面。本题的误区是选项A的on the platform，考生往往只听到最后一句，而忽略前一句。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Look, I'm sorry I didn't turn up for the match yesterday, but it wasn't really my fault, you know.
W: It's all very well saying it wasn't your fault, but thanks to you we lost 8 to 1.

[解析] 本题难度较大，考生往往会因听到thanks to you而选择C项，也会因误解it's all very well saying it wasn't your fault而选择D项，这是因为考生并没能真正理解女士的回答。对话中It's all very well…，but…意思是“当然可以……但是……”，是表示不赞成，不满意的一种委婉说法。对话中的短语thanks to意为“由于，多亏”。因此说女士的回答实际上是一种委婉的责备。

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Although I drove very slowly in the morning fog, I still hit a tree.
W: You can't be too careful.

[解析] 本题的关键在于对You can't be too careful．一句的理解上。要知道这并非一般否定句。can't be too + adj．的结构意为：“再……也不过分”因此，本句的意思是：“(开车时)你再怎么小心也不过分。”
