Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 3 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题是 “让某人做某事 ”题，采用的是 have sth done句型。答案为B。 B项和 D项有矛盾关系，一般来说，答案应在这两个选项中。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【 听力原文】 W: Look at that big field of

19、cotton. And theres a farm with some beautiful houses. M: You really get to know the country when you go by train, dont you? Q: Where did the conversation most probably take place? 4 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 地点题。对话中提到了多个地点 名词，如棉田、农场、火车，但关键还是要听到男士说的 “当你乘火车的时候，能够真正地了解乡村 ”，故可知他们正在火车上，即 D。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 M: H

Didnt you see the sign? W: Sorry. I didnt. Q

22、: What do we learn from the conversation? 7 【正确答案】 C 【试 题解析】 本题可通过两种方法来解答。一种是正面解答法：通过关键词 one-way street(单行道 )与 sign(标志 )，可知女士违反了交通规则。另一种是排除法：通过浏览选项可直接排除 D，因为 C与 D之间存在着包孕关系 (即若 D成立，则 C肯定成立 )；对话中并没有提及速度，故 A与 B均不正确。 【知识模块】 听力 8 【听力原文】 W: I ought to call Joan, and tell her about the reception this eveni

23、ng. M: Why bother? You will see her at lunch. Q: What does the man mean? 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 不赞同题，答案选项中往往有与第一个说话者的关键词相对立的词。本题使用反问句 Why bother?来表示不赞同，关键词是 call Joan。同时，要注意这道题中的 “语音相似陷阱 ”： B项和 D项中的 brother，都是由第二个说话者中的 bother衍生而来的干扰因素。看穿其中戏法的眼睛雪亮的读者，是不会上这种当的。故选 A。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【 听力原文】 W: Hey, Taxi!
