　　W: Gosh! Have you seen this Richard?

　　M: Seeing what?

　　W: In the paper, it says there’s a man going round pretending he’s from the electricity board. He’s been calling at people’s homes, saying he’s come to check that all their appliances are safe. Then he gets around them to make him a cup of tea and while they are out of the room, he steals their money, handbag, whatever and makes off with it.

　　M: But you know Jane, it’s partly their own fault. You should never let anyone like that in unless you are expecting them.

　　W: It’s all very well to say that, but someone comes to the door and says electricity or gas, and you automatically think they are ok, especially if they flash a card to you.

　　M: Does this man have an I. D. then?

　　W: Yes, that’s just it! It seems he used to work for the electricity board at one time. According to the paper, the police are warning people, especially pensioners not to admit anyone unless they have an appointment. It’s a bit sad. One old lady told them she’d just been to the post office to draw her pension when he called. She said he must have followed her home. He stole the whole lot.

　　M: But what does he look like? Surely they must have a description.

　　W: Oh, yes, they have. Let’s see. In his thirties, tall, bushy dark hair, slight northern accent, sounds a bit like you actually.

　　22. What does the woman speaker tell us about the old lady?

　　19. 【答案】C

　　【解析】在做長(zhǎng)對(duì)話聽力前，我們通常會(huì)把該對(duì)話涉及的所有選項(xiàng)都瀏覽、分析一遍。 題21的所有選項(xiàng)都是關(guān)于如何防止被騙或者被盜竊的措施。題22的選項(xiàng)A和C也提到了rob(搶劫)， stolen(盜竊)，而題19選項(xiàng)C又恰恰提到了thief,那我們現(xiàn)在可以猜測(cè)該題是關(guān)于一起盜竊案件。題19各個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是名詞短語，所以該題很可能考查的是該對(duì)話的主要內(nèi)容或者討論的主要對(duì)象。對(duì)話一開始女士提到the paper says there’s a man going round pretending(假裝) he’s from the electricity board(電力局)。進(jìn)入居民家中后伺機(jī)steals their money, handbag…因此女士讓男士讀的是一起偽裝盜竊案件(in disguise)。故答案為C。

　　20. 【答案】D

　　【解析】該題各選項(xiàng)都是對(duì)某人行為特征的描述。既然我們已經(jīng)猜測(cè)到該對(duì)話是關(guān)于一起偽裝盜竊案件，那么該題很可能就是關(guān)于這個(gè)小偷的描述。對(duì)話中女士提到，小偷會(huì)flash a card to you(短暫地出示身份證)，接著男士又確認(rèn)，的確出示的是身份證，故答案為D。 選項(xiàng)A不正確，選項(xiàng)B，C沒有明確提到。

　　21. 【答案】C

　　【解析】該題各選項(xiàng)都是關(guān)于預(yù)防被盜或者搶劫的措施。聽音時(shí)要注意識(shí)別關(guān)鍵信息。對(duì)話中提到according to the paper, the police are warning people, especially pensioners(領(lǐng)退休金或養(yǎng)老金的人) not to admit anyone unless they have an appointment(預(yù)約)。故答案為C。

　　22. 【答案】C

　　【解析】選項(xiàng)表明，該題是關(guān)于一位女士的退休金(pension)被搶劫或者被偷的事情。聽音時(shí)要注意細(xì)節(jié)的描述。對(duì)話中提到One old lady told them she’d just been to the post office to draw her pension when he called. She said he must have followed her home. He stole the whole lot (命運(yùn)，運(yùn)氣)。故選項(xiàng)C最為準(zhǔn)確。
