SectionA

11.M:Whatwouldbelikeworkingwith

thoseyoungstars?

W:Itwasagreatgroup,Ialwaysgot

madwhenpeoplesaidthatwedidn,tget

along,justbecauseweweregirls,there

wasneverafight.Wehadagreattime.

Q:Whatdoesthewomanmean?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明對話與女孩們之間的相處情況有關(guān)，而由［C］可推測

這些女孩很可能是一群年輕的明星（youngstars）o［D］與女孩們的

相處這一話題關(guān)系不大，與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排除。［B］、

［C］意思相近，均表示女孩們相處得不太好，故二者均不大可能為答案。

［A］則表示女孩們相處得非常好，與［B］、［C］同時(shí)相反，根據(jù)命題

規(guī)律，同時(shí)與兩個(gè)意思相近的選項(xiàng)相反的選項(xiàng)很可能為答案。因此可初步

推測本題答案為［A］。聽音時(shí)重點(diǎn)留意女孩們相處得如何（“好”還

是“不好”）。whatwouldbelike

doingsth.?意為“…怎么樣？”，是用于尋問情況的一種常見句式。

12.［A］Thewomandoesherownhousework.

［B］Thewomanneedsahousekeeper.

［C］Thewoman，shouseisinamess.

［D］Thewomanworksasahousekeeper.

M:Areyoutellingmeyoudon'thaveahousekeeper?

W:No,wedon，t.Ifyoumakeamess,youcleanitupyourself.

Q:Whatdowelearnfromthisconversation?

【解析】選項(xiàng)中housework和housekeepe（r管家）表明對話與家務(wù)

活和管家有關(guān)。［C］是說房間的情況（房間很亂），而其他三項(xiàng)均是陳

述女士是否雇傭管家承擔(dān)家務(wù)活有關(guān)，故［C］可初步排除。［D］是說

女士是一名housekeeper,根據(jù)常識，housekeeper的主要工作就是負(fù)責(zé)

管理家務(wù)，那她自己的家務(wù)活肯定是由她自己來做（［A］的內(nèi)容），即

［D］成立，［A］就同時(shí)成立，因此［D］不大可能為答案。故聽音時(shí)應(yīng)

留意以下選項(xiàng)要點(diǎn)：woman—自己做housework；需要housekeeper。

makeamess意為“弄臟，弄亂”。

13.[A]TheEdwardsarequiteW:IhearthattheEdwardsarethinking

【解析】由選項(xiàng)中should,unwise等詞可推測問welloff.

[B]TheEdwardsshouldcutdownontheirlivingexpenses.

[C]It'11beunwisefortheEdwardstobuyanotherhouse.

[D]It'stooexpensivefortheEdwardstoliveintheirpresent

house,ofbuyinganotherhouse.

M:Shouldtheybedoingthatwithalltheotherexpensestheyhave

topay?

Anyhow,theyareover70now,theirpresenthouseisnottoobad.

Q:Whatdoesthemanimply?

題應(yīng)該涉及到看法或建議。選項(xiàng)中l(wèi)ivingexpenses（生活開支）和buy

anotherhouse表明對話應(yīng)與theEdwards的生活開支利購房計(jì)劃有關(guān)。

[A]與此主題關(guān)系不大，且與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排除。

[D]是說theEdwards目前的住房開支太大，言外之意就是[B]（the

Edwards應(yīng)該削減生活開支），因此[D]也不大可能為答案。故聽音時(shí)應(yīng)

重點(diǎn)留意以下兩點(diǎn)：cutdownexpenses；unwisetobuyhouseo對話中

男士用反問語氣（shouldtheybedoing…？）表示反對意見Theyshouldn'

tbedoing…11beunwise…todo…）。

14.[A]Thewomandidn，texpectittobesowarmatnoon.

[B]Thewomanissensitivetoweatherchanges.

[C]Theweatherforecastwasunreliable.

[D]Theweatherturnedcoldallofasudden.

M:Youlooklikeyouarefreezingtodeath.Whydon'tyouputthis

on?

W:Thankyou,itwassowarmatnoon.Ididn'texpecttheweather

tochangeso

quickly.

Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明對話與天氣變化和女士的反應(yīng)有關(guān)。[C]是說天氣預(yù)

報(bào)的情況，與主題不太相關(guān)，與其他選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排除。

[A]是說沒有料到天氣突然變暖，[D]是說天氣突然變冷，二者意思

正好相反，故很可能有一個(gè)為答案。因此聽音時(shí)重點(diǎn)關(guān)注天氣是突然“變

冷”還是“變暖”，另外也要注意對話中是否提到了女士對天氣變化敏

感(sensitive)。抓住男士話中的freezingtodeath(冷得要命)即

可基本確定答案為[D]。unreliable意為“不可靠的"。Allofasudden

意為“突然，出乎意料地”。

15.[A]Ataclinic.

[B]Inasupermarket.

[C]Atarestaurant.

[D]Inanicecreamshop.

W:Oh,Oh,youknowthesethingswillruinyourhealth,toomuch

fatand

sugar,howaboutorderingsomevegetablesandfruitinstead?

Q:Wheredoestheconversationmostprobablytakeplace?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明本題為“地點(diǎn)場景”類型。做這類題目時(shí)，在聽音時(shí)要

注意捕捉符合某一地點(diǎn)場景特點(diǎn)的關(guān)鍵詞，結(jié)合語境作出推斷，一般這類

題目的信息詞都不只一個(gè)，因此切忌聽到只言片語就妄下結(jié)論。本題中如

只抓住前面的steak,FrenchFries,icecream和后面的vegetablesand

fruit等詞，則很有可能會(huì)誤選[B]。只有抓住關(guān)鍵詞“order（點(diǎn)

菜）”才可以迅速確定答案為[C]O

16.[A]ThewomandidnotfeelanydangergrowingupintheBronx.

[B]ThemanthinksitwasquitesafelivingintheBronxdistrict.

[C]Thewomanstartedworkingatanearlyagetosupportherfamily.

[D]Themandoesn，tthinkitsafetosendan8yearoldtobuythings.

M:WhatwasitlikegrowingupinNewYork'sBronxDistrict?Was

itsafe?

W:Tome,itwas.ItwasallIknew.Mymomwouldsendmetothe

shopandI'd

goandbuythingswhenIwasabout8yearsold.

Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明對話與在Bronx區(qū)成長或生活的安全狀況有關(guān)。由選

項(xiàng)中feel,think等詞可推測問題與某人的看法或感受有關(guān)。[C]是

說女士很小就開始工作養(yǎng)家，和主題關(guān)系不大，與其他選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同,

故可初步排除。選項(xiàng)要點(diǎn)為：woman—nodanger；man—safe/notsafe。

故聽音時(shí)重點(diǎn)應(yīng)留意男士或女士是覺得Bronx區(qū)是'安全”還是“不安全”。

17.[A]Themanhasneverseenthewomanbefore.

[B]Thetwospeakersworkfor

M:Niceweather,isn'tit?Oh,I'veseenyouaroundtheoffice,but

Idon，tthinkwe'vemet,IamHenrySmith,Iworkinthesamecompany.

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明對話雙方很可能是在同一家公

司或同一個(gè)樓層上班，但彼此可能不太相熟。[D]

項(xiàng)是說女士對市場研究感興趣，沒有提到男士的

[C]Thetwospeakersworkonthesamefloor.

[D]Thewomanisinterestedinmarketresearch.

theMarketResearchSection.

W:Nicetomeetyou,Henry.IamHelenGrant,IamintheAdvertising

Sectionontheninthfloor.

Q:Whatcanweinferfromtheconversation?

情況，與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排除。因此聽音時(shí)應(yīng)主要留

意以下要點(diǎn)：對話雙方是在“同一公司”上班（[B]）還是在“同一

樓層"上班（[C]）；男士以前是否見過女士（[A]）o注意“Market

ResearchSection"與"AdvertisingSection,,應(yīng)該屬于同一公司的兩

個(gè)不同部門，由此可判斷男士和女士在同一公司上班。

18.[A]Thewomancan，ttolerateanynoise.

[B]Themanislookingforanapartment.

[C]Themanhasmissedhisappointment.

[D]Thewomanisgoingtotakeatraintrip.

M:Mam,Ihearyouhaveanapartmentforrent,canItakealook

atit?

W:Sure,you'rewelcomeanytimebyappointment,butIhavetotell

youthebuildingisclosetoarailwaywiththenoise.Youmight

aswellsavethetrip.

Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?

【解析】選項(xiàng)中noise,lookforanapartment和appointment表明對

話很可能與找公寓或看房子有關(guān)。[D]與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容幾乎沒有關(guān)聯(lián)，

故可初步排除。因此聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)留意以下要點(diǎn)：woman-can?ttolerate

noise；man—lookingforapartment,missappointmento[A]表示

找公寓的是女士，[B]則表示找工作的是男士，二者中很有可能有一個(gè)

為答案，因此聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)辨別找公寓的是“男士”還是“女士”。

預(yù)覽三道題各選項(xiàng)，由21題可推測對話中男士(Mr.Saunders)很可能

是在申請女士公司的職位。故對話很可能是圍繞申請工作這一話題而展

開。

19.What'sthepurposeofMr.Thunder'svisit?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為不定式表明本題很可能是關(guān)于某事的目的。而選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容

都是關(guān)于男士與女士之間的活動(dòng)，可推測本題很可能是關(guān)于男士拜訪女士

的目的。由21題分析可知，對話是圍繞男士申請工作這一話題展開，故

本題答案很可能為［B］“tobeinterviewed(面試)”

20.WhatisMr.Thunder'scurrentjob?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明本題很可能是考查的是男士目前的工作。［B］、［C］、［D］

均表示他在為其他公司工作，［A］則是說男士自己經(jīng)營一家小的貿(mào)易公司，

與“男士申請女士公司的工作”這一主題不符，也與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不

同，故可初步排除。而從19題選項(xiàng)中的businessreport和stock

market可推測男士的工作比較可能為［C］（leadateamforbrokers）。

而［B］中的insurance（保險(xiǎn)）和［D］中的publicrelations（公共關(guān)

系）在其他各題選項(xiàng)中均找不到任何線索。另外聽音時(shí)應(yīng)注意辨別男士是

在“大公司”還是在“小公司”工作，通過這一點(diǎn)便可排除兩個(gè)干擾選項(xiàng),

之后確定答案也就比較容易了。broker意為“保險(xiǎn)經(jīng)濟(jì)人”。

21.Whatcanweconcludefromtheconversation?

【解析】選項(xiàng)［A］、［D］是女士對男士的看法，選項(xiàng)［C］則是男士對工作條

件的看法，故本題很可能與面試的結(jié)果有關(guān)。［B］是說男士申請的這份工

作所需承擔(dān)的責(zé)任，與面試無關(guān)，與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排

除。［A］表示女士對男士不太滿意，［D］則表示女士對男士很滿意，二者

意思相反，故很可能有一個(gè)為答案。聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)留意女士的態(tài)度如何。

Questions22to25arebasedontheconversationyouhavejustheard.

M:Hey,Karen,youarenotreallyreadingit,areyou?

W:Pardon?

ifItoldthemIwasquitting.

預(yù)覽四道題各選項(xiàng)，由22題可推測對話中女士(Karen)很可能對某一

課程缺乏興趣或感

覺吃力，23題則涉及到Karen對專業(yè)的喜好問題，25題則表明對話很

可能與Karen更換

專業(yè)有關(guān)。綜合來看，對話很可能是圍繞Karen不滿目前專業(yè)想調(diào)換這一

話題展開。

22.Whycan'tKarenconcentrateonthebook?

【解析】由worried,findittoohard,lackinterest可推測本題很

可能是與Karen對it的感受有關(guān)。由本題［A］中的seminar（討論會(huì)）

及其他題選項(xiàng)中course,major等詞可推測本題中it應(yīng)該與某一課程

有關(guān)。［B］是說男士一直打擾Karen,與其他三項(xiàng)（Karen自己的感受）內(nèi)

容明顯不同，故可初步排除。而根據(jù)23題中prefer和enjoy可推測本

題很可能是與Karen的興趣有關(guān)，即本題答案很可能為［D］。

23.WhyisKarenstartingtolikethecourselessandless?

【解析】根據(jù)上題分析，選項(xiàng)中boring,poorlydesigned與prefer,

enjoy表明本題很可能是關(guān)于Karen對該課程缺乏興趣的原因有關(guān)。兩

道題結(jié)合起來分析，問題應(yīng)該是Karen主觀方面的原因引起的。因此本

題的答案應(yīng)主要在［C］和［D］之間選擇，重點(diǎn)辨別Karen是更喜歡

uphilosophy（哲學(xué)）"還是更喜歡uliterature（文學(xué)）"。rather

than意為“而不是”。

24.WhothinksPhilosophygraduateshavelimitedjobopportunities?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為人物角色表明本題是針對“who”進(jìn)行提問。聯(lián)系對話

主題，本題很可

能與影響Keren對課程或?qū)I(yè)的喜好或選擇的人有關(guān)。聽音時(shí)注意辨認(rèn)

選項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞。

Haveone'sbestinterestatheart意為“處處為某人的利益著想”。

25.WhatisKarenthinkingofdoing?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為現(xiàn)在分詞表明本題為考查“行為活動(dòng)”類型。［B］與對

話主題及其他選項(xiàng)均無關(guān)系，故可初步排除。［D］是說要退出大學(xué)，而根

據(jù)對主題的分析，對話主要涉及的是專業(yè)問題，沒有提到要退學(xué)的問題，

故本題答案更可能在［A］和［C］之間選擇。而［C］選項(xiàng)是說轉(zhuǎn)到外語系，實(shí)

際上也是改變專業(yè)，包含在［A］之內(nèi)，故本題答案最有可能為［A］。注意這

里的quit是指退出現(xiàn)在的專業(yè)，而不是指退出大學(xué)，選擇答案時(shí)需根

據(jù)上下文，切忌根據(jù)常識進(jìn)行判斷。

預(yù)覽四道題各選項(xiàng)，由反復(fù)出現(xiàn)的bury,body,grave等詞可推測本文

與尸體在墓地的安藏有關(guān)。

26.WhatmustGreeksdotokeepthedeadrestingineverlastingpeace?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為動(dòng)詞原形表明本題為考查“行為活動(dòng)”類型。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)

均與埋藏尸體有關(guān)，［B］項(xiàng)概念太泛，其他三項(xiàng)都較具體，故［B］不大可能

為答案。［A］表示“租”墓地，而［D］表示“買”墓地，二者中很可能有

一個(gè)為答案，聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)關(guān)注。Everlasting意為“持久的”。根據(jù)

首句中0nlyrichpeople…就可基本確定答案為［D］（沒有錢就買不起墓

地）。

27.WhyaremostdeadbodiesinAmphonsdugupafterthreeyears?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為不定式表明本題很可能是考查做某事的目的或原因。根

據(jù)短文主題及選項(xiàng)中decayed,move等詞可推測，［B］中的they和［C］

中them應(yīng)該是代指“bodies”。根據(jù)［B］、［D］選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容可推測本題很

可能是與移動(dòng)尸體的目的或原因有關(guān)。聽音時(shí)應(yīng)留意表示因果關(guān)系的連

接詞。一般這類詢問目的或原因的題目往往是在問題上做句型的轉(zhuǎn)換，也

就是對原文的同義轉(zhuǎn)述，答案則經(jīng)常是原文的細(xì)節(jié)辨認(rèn)，因此聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重

點(diǎn)留意以下要點(diǎn)：lackofland；ifdecayed；religion；multistorey

graveyardo

28.Whatsuggestionsdoesthechurchgiveabouttheburyingofthe

deadbodies?

【解析】選項(xiàng)表明本題很可能是關(guān)于尸體埋藏的方式。由選項(xiàng)中的should

可推測本題很可能與建議或意見有關(guān)。故聽音時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)留意表達(dá)建議或意

見的詞句。［D］是說在尸體部分腐爛的時(shí)候?qū)⑹w下藏，不太符合邏輯，

可初步排除。［A］是說埋藏時(shí)將尸體躺著放，［B］則是說埋藏時(shí)將尸體立著

放，二者正好相反，故很可能有一個(gè)為答案。本題的選擇可結(jié)合27題，

如考生能確定27答案為［A］,便可基本確定本題答案為［B］(buried

standingup—saveland-solvetheproblemoflackofland)。

29.WhatpracticedoestheGreekchurchobjectto?

【解析】選項(xiàng)均為動(dòng)名詞表明本題為考查“行為活動(dòng)”類型。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均

表示處理尸體的方式，故本題很可能是關(guān)于除埋藏以外的其他處理尸體的

方式。［D］是說三年后將尸體挖出，仍然與埋藏尸體有關(guān)，且不屬于尸體

的安置方式，與其他三項(xiàng)內(nèi)容明顯不同，故可初步排除。聽音時(shí)應(yīng)留意以

下要點(diǎn)：burn；storeinremoteplace；placeinboneroom。本題

只要抓住burn一詞便不難選出答案。
