【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: The winters here are usually mild.
W: Usually, but I think this year will be different.
mild是气候“温和的”,第二个人说的different是解题的关键,它说明了其与第一个人观点的不同,既然与mild不同,那就应该是cold了。

Where does the woman think Lee is?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Have you seen Lee recently? Last I saw him he was on the grass by the pool.
W: He must be home by now. I saw him leave on his bike half an hour ago.
从第二个人的说话内容可以知道,她认为他现在在家里,而这就是本题的问题所在。“on the grass by the pool”是指“在池塘边的草地上”,问题与此无关,但容易造成混淆。所以答案应选择C项。
单选题
When are Frantic and Mike getting married?
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: I thought Francie and Mike were getting married in June.
W: No, that's when his cousin's wedding is.
M: Really? Then what's exactly the time?
W: Well, they are getting married the following month.
这是道细节题,要听清第一对人结婚的时间是June,而第二对人的时间是“the following month”,经过推算应该是在July。所以应当选择D项。
单选题
Where does the conversation most probably take place?
【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】[听力原文]
W: Excuse me. Have you decided what you would like to eat?
M: Yes. I'm going to order some beef. I want some vegetables with it, but no potatoes.
这是道场景题,做题的关键是根据对话要想象出他们正在做什么,根据说话者的语气和“excuse me”、“have you decided what you would like to eat”和“I am going to order...”等餐厅常用语,显然这应该是侍者与顾客之间的对话,当然是发生在餐厅里。
单选题
What is the woman's problem?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Will you please return my stop watch? I need it to time the races tomorrow.
W: Oh, hum. I'm not sure how to tell you. But it fell on the ground and now the second hand doesn't work.
M: Well, don't worry. Let me see whether it still could be repaired.
第二个说话人的问题在于她弄坏了借来的秒表。“stop watch”是“计时用的秒表”,而time在对话中作动词,表示“计时”的意思。从return可知,这秒表是借的;而第二个人说“秒表掉在地上,秒针不走了”。所以答案选择C。
