Section A 1. 【试题分析】本题考查对关键词语的推理能力。【关键词语】get back, lunch, library, fall asleep【详细解答】在解答此问题时,首先要捕捉住对话的主要内容和关键词语。男方问女方:每天吃过中饭回来很晚,是不是因为买东西的缘故。女方回答说,她的大多数午饭时间都在图书馆。但是那里很安静,很快就会睡着。根据题意B为正确答案。 2. 【试题分析】本题考查对上下文的理解,需要抓住关键词语。【关键词语】travel, postpone, make it, December【详细解答】从对话内容上看,女方说她是去年12月份计划参观黄石公园的,后来不得不推迟参观。几个月之后才成行。这里的关键词是December这个时间概念。几个月之后,肯定是到了第二个年头,即今年,故B为正确答案。 3. 【试题分析】本题考查对上下文的理解,需要抓住关键词语。【关键词语】neighbour, promised, keep an eye on【详细解答】从对话内容上看,他们二人要外出两星期,很明显是去旅游,故C为正确答案。 4. 【试题分析】本题为直接推理题,需根据关键词进行推理。【关键词语】avenue, straight, blocks【详细解答】男士问女士到邮局怎么走。女士回答说,走过四排楼房向右转到第三大街,再往前走过二、三排楼房,街右边便是邮局大楼。这里的关键词是avenue。一条大街上可能有许多楼房,向左走或向右走若干排楼房,仍在大街范围之内,所以第三条大街是这个对话的最重要的词语,如果听懂了,问题就不难回答。故B为正确答案。 5. 【试题分析】本题考查学生对关键词语的理解能力,根据关键词从肯定中找出否定。【关键词语】holiday, summer, upset【详细解答】从对话中可知,男士希望女士已告诉他关于她的假期计划。这里用了一个虚拟语气的句子:I wish you had told me your holidays.我希望你已经告诉了我关于你的假期计划。言外之意,她没告诉他关于她的计划,因而感到遗憾。这里可从女士的问话中透露出来:“对不起。我认为你知道我每年夏季都要到我姑妈住的地方去。”这句话的意思也证明了男士没有获得此信息,故B为正确答案。 6. 【试题分析】本题考查对关键词语的理解能力。需要根据关键词进行间接推理。【关键词语】look up, take out, card, list【详细解答】男士问女士是否可以帮他借书。女士的回答没有那么直接,而是说不想用她的卡把书拿出来,实际上就等于说她不想用她的卡给他借书。这里的关键词语是take out,故B为正确答案。 7. 【试题分析】本题考查对关键词语的理解能力。需要根据关键词进行间接推理。【关键词语】ring, finger, bride, honeymoon【详细解答】要正确回答这个问题,必须对全文有全面了解,并要具有一定的生活常识和对风俗习惯的了解。从对话中可以知道,Tom非常紧张,主要原因是他要做新郎了。做新郎的一个重要环节是要给新娘戴戒指。新娘和新郎今晚又要到Hawaii度蜜月,这就很明显,这次谈话所发生的场合是在婚礼上。故C为正确答案。 8. 【试题分析】这是一个简单的数学计算题。需要根据数字进行简单换算。【关键词语】ticket, prefer, cheap【详细解答】男士一共只有10块钱。有两种价格的票,一种是3元钱一张,另一种是2元钱一张。他要买3张2元钱一张的票,那么剩下的钱只能是4元。所以答案是C。 9. 【试题分析】本题考查对关键词的理解能力。需要根据关键词语进行间接推理。【关键词语】New York, fly, decide, expensive【详细解答】从女士一开始的谈话可以知道Bill(贝尔)最终还是到达了New York。开始他打算乘飞机去,然后打算乘公共汽车。最后一次女士同他谈话时,他还没有真正决定。但男士告诉她,他不是自己开车去的,乘飞机太花钱而乘车又太慢。问题是:到纽约去过几次。在对话中只有第一句话最关键,其含义是他只去过那里一次,故A为正确答案。 10. 【试题分析】这是一个一般性的听力理解问题,需要根据上下文进行简单推理。【关键词语】operation, hospital, all right【详细解答】A应首先排除,因为听力材料中可以听到I learned they had operated around 9 o’clock.那就是说手术已经动过了,而不是将要进行,也不是正在进行。故只有C为正确答案。而D不是主要的信息,只是在动完手术之后现在才all right。所以不应选择。

Section B Passage One 11. 【参考译文】说话者对马克?吐温一生的哪个方面着重进行了说明?【试题分析】本题考查对关键词语的理解能力,并根据关键词对上下文进行判断和推理。【详细解答】从听力材料的第一部分中可以听到…… traveled quite a lot, often because of circumstances 出于环境和生活所迫,马克?吐温不得不到处奔波。而且从材料的第二、三段中所叙述的事情都是马克?吐温周游全国,不是为了逃避战乱就是为了生计而奔波,所以马克?吐温的一生大部分花在了这上面。这也是说话人所强调的最重要的一个方面,故A 为正确答案。 12. 【参考译文】大多数人都认为马克?吐温出生在什么地方?【试题分析】本题为一般性理解题,需要捕捉听力中的关键字句。【详细解答】听力中有这样一句话:Most people think he was born in Hanibul, but that isn’t true.(大多数人都认为他出生在Hanibul 但实际并非如此。)根据题意,很明显D为正确答案。 13. 【参考译文】马克?吐温最喜欢什么工作?【试题分析】本题考查对关键字句的理解能力,并对上下文进行推理。【详细解答】听力的第二段中,可以听到:“……and then got a job as a river pilot on the Mississippi. Twain loved the job and many of his books show it.(…..于是在密西西比河上,他找到了当水手的差事,吐温喜欢这件工作,他的许多书都是反映了这方面事情的。)由此可知B为正确答案。 14. 【参考译文】为什么吐温要到西部去?【试题分析】本题考查对关键字句的理解能力,并对上下文进行推理。【详细解答】如果集中精力去听,并且能够听懂这句话:……and then he and his whole company went West to get away from the war and the army,就不难知道他去西部的原因是为了躲避战争和脱离军队。故C为正确答案。
Passage Two 15. 【试题分析】先读选项,四项皆为地点状语,因此可以预知此题问地点,听音时注意听与地点有关的信息。【详细解答】此题答案在短文的开头,即 The office and small factory … were…in a … old fashioned houses … 此题还需辨析 behind ornamental railings 与选项behind the railway ,前者意为“在装饰围栏之后”,后者意为“在铁轨后面”。 16. 【试题分析】此题为听力材料细节理解题。【详细解答】若听清了短文中的girl of seventeen, yellow hair,便可排除A、B选项。若听到了in a green woolen coat 便可排除C项,同时确定D为正确答案,coat(外套)通常在户外穿用。 17. 【试题分析】此题为直接明示信息题。【关键词语】patterns of cloth…on a large desk【详细解答】短文最后一部分是对邻居Mr. Thomas Belton室内情况的描写。在描写部分,只要听清楚了Patterns of cloth…on a large desk,就容易选对B项。
Passage Three 18. 【试题分析】此题为直接推理题。【关键词语】strange, fascinated【详细解答】此题关键在于听清第一句话,特别是其中的关键词strange,由此不难选出正确答案A。此外,根据下一句的内容也可推测出正确答案。 19. 【试题分析】此题考查对关键词的理解,并进行简单的推理。【关键词语】disappearance of many ships and planes【详细解答】如果听到短文中的关键词“dissppearence of many ships and planes…”,而disappearance意思为消失(lost),故而不难选出正确答案B。同时,根据了解的关于“百慕大”的常识也可做正确答案。 20. 【试题分析】此题为间接推理题,需要抓住关键词来推理。【详细解答】首先必须听清“…western point is Florida, and its eastern point is the Coast of Africa…”,再根据地理常识便可知 Bermuda处于大西洋,故可选择D项。
