　　答案

　　Section A

　　11.

　　W: This crazy bus schedule has got me completely confused. I can’t figure out when my bus to Cleveland leaves?

　　M: Why don’t you just go to the ticket window and ask?

　　Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?

　　【答案】B) Go and ask the staff.

　　【解析】這是一道事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。從對話中可知，女士搞不清楚列車時(shí)刻表，男士建議她去售票窗口咨詢。ticket window售票窗口。

　　W: I really enjoyed the TV special about drafts last night. Did you get home in time to see it?

　　W: Oh, yes, but I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　【答案】A) He fell asleep in the middle of the TV program.

　　【解析】這是道推理判斷題，考查男士的言下之意以及虛擬語氣。could have done意為本可以做某事，但未做。從對話中可知，男士確實(shí)回家看了電視節(jié)目，但是他說道：I wish I could have stayed awake long enough to see the whole thing. 我真希望自己當(dāng)時(shí)能再晚點(diǎn)睡著，這樣我就可以看完整場節(jié)目了。說明他沒有看完整場節(jié)目就睡著了。

　　13.

　　W: Airport, please. I’m running a little late. So just take the fastest way even if it’s not the most direct.

　　M: Sure, but there is a lot of traffic everywhere today because of the football game.

　　Q: What do we learn about the woman from the conversation?

　　【答案】B) She is worried about missing her flight.

　　【解析】這是道場景題，略有難度。剛開始，我們還無法很快判斷出該對話發(fā)生的場景，很多同學(xué)一聽到airport可能會(huì)誤以為對話發(fā)生在機(jī)場，但如果我們繼續(xù)聽下去，就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，該對話應(yīng)該發(fā)生在出租車上，因?yàn)榕�士說了句“請選擇最快的路”，而男士說“因?yàn)橛星蛸悾�所以到處都交通擁堵”可以幫助我們再次確認(rèn)對話發(fā)生的場景。選項(xiàng)A不對，原文是說要挑the fastest way哪怕不是the most direct way;選項(xiàng)C也不準(zhǔn)確，才剛上車，并沒有擁堵，司機(jī)只是提前說明因?yàn)榍蛸悤?huì)碰到擁堵;選項(xiàng)D錯(cuò)誤，女士是為了趕去乘飛機(jī)的，而不是去看球賽。

　　14.

　　W: May I make a recommendation, sir? Our seafood with this special sauce is very good.

　　M: Thank you, but I don’t eat shellfish. I’m allergic to it.

　　Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?

　　【答案】A) In a restaurant

　　【解析】這是道場景題，較為簡單。從對話中可知，女士希望向男士推薦一道菜，從首句中即可推斷出該對話最有可能發(fā)生在餐館中，男士說，他過敏，不吃貝殼類海鮮，可以幫助我們再次確認(rèn)對話發(fā)生的場景。

　　15.

　　W: Now one more question if you don’t mind, what position in the company appeals to you most?

　　M: Well, I’d like the position of sales manager if that position is still vacant.

　　Q: What do we learn about the man?

　　【答案】A) He is being interviewed for a job.

　　【解析】這是較為簡單的細(xì)節(jié)推理題。 從position, company這幾個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞中，我們就可以快速判斷出此題的場景為面試，因此男士應(yīng)該正在接受一場面試。 C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，他想要銷售經(jīng)理的職位，但并不表示他本身就是銷售經(jīng)理。

　　16.

　　M: I don’t think I want to live in the dormitory next year. I need more privacy.

　　W: I know what you mean. But check out the cost if renting an apartment first. I won’t be surprised if you change your mind.

　　Q: What does the woman imply?

　　【答案】B) The man is unlikely to move out of the dormitory.

　　【解析】這是推理判斷題，詢問女士的言下之意。最后一句，女士表示“你改變主意的話，我不會(huì)覺得奇怪”，可知，男士不太可能搬出宿舍。A選項(xiàng)是個(gè)干擾項(xiàng)，雖然該選項(xiàng)看上去意思和B選項(xiàng)差不多，但對話中并沒有提到男士想找一個(gè)更安靜的地方，他想搬離寢室，是為了更多的個(gè)人空間。

　　17.

　　M: You’re on the right track. I just think you need to narrow the topic down.

　　W: Yeah, you’re right. I always start by choosing two boarder topics when I’m doing a research paper.

　　Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

　　【答案】D) The woman is going to make her topic more focused.

　　【解析】這是推理判斷題。從對話中可知，男士希望女士縮小主題的范圍，女士回答“你是對的。”說明女士會(huì)采納男士的建議，縮小主題。

　　18.

　　W: This picnic should beat the last one we went to, doesn’t it?

　　M: Oh, yeah, we had to spend the whole time inside. Good thing, the weather was cooperative this time.

　　Q: What do we learn about the speakers from the conversation?

　　【答案】B) They didn’t quite enjoy their last picnic.

　　【解析】這是推理判斷題。beat一詞是個(gè)難點(diǎn)，beat本意有“打敗”的意思，這次的野餐打敗了上次，即這次比上次好，下文中，男士說“上次我們不得不呆在室內(nèi)，但這次天氣不錯(cuò)。”可以再次確認(rèn)他們不喜歡上次的野餐，因此，正確答案為B。
