25、重点在于理解相应的地点名词所确立的语境，以及在该语境下的关键词。本题的关键词是 cough，故选 D。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【听力原文】 W: It was really a wonderful game. The guest team was strong and our team wasnt bad, either. M: No, they werent.

28、class. W: Oh sure. How are you? M: Fine, thanks. Listen, Im working on our assignment and I cant seem to figure out the last problem and, uh. the teaching assistants out of town, so I was wondering if you could help me.

32、似乎在问他们“一同 ”、 “都 ”怎么样。推断题。根据男士一开始自我介绍时所说的 “Its Bill Parker from your calculus class ”可知答案为 C。对话开头常设考点。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 推断题。当男生提到杂志 The Signal时，女士反问了一句 “The what?“这表明女士对杂志不熟，所以她才道歉，并且解释说自己今年刚转学来这里，由此可推出答案为 B。 A、 D未提及， C与对话内容相反。反问处必有玄机。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 四个动词原形预示着将提问 “干什么 ”或 “为什

33、么 ”。细节题， Bill晚饭后将干什么 ?Sue建议两人晚饭后见面 ， Bill回答说 “Uh， thats bad for meI have a meeting for The Signal ”据此，选 D。 “Uh”语气词出现，后面的内容十分重要。 B、 C是女士打算做的事情，均不正确。在长对话的测试里，细节题是大量存在的，而且不好对付，因为既要考你听懂了没有，还要考你的记忆力，所以要适当做笔记。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 M: Is that a map?

35、nk that the tropical storm is on the way? W: Too early to tell, but we need to be prepared. The radio mentioned possible evacuation routes. M: Really? Its that serious? W: Youd better believe it. Late summer is hurricane season. The television updates locations and speeds every hour. M: What did the

36、y say is out there now? W: A couple of tropical depressions, two storms and two hurricanes. M: Whats the difference? W: Wind velocity.

37、 hour and up. M: What are the names on the map? David, Arlene, Francisco, and Gina. W: You know weather forecasters give the hurricanes the names of people to make storms easy to identify. M: I wonder what the status of the storm is now. W: You shall turn on the television, and it has the best cover

38、age. There is an up-date coming up in five minutes. 12. What is the conversation mainly about? 13. Which is true about a depression, a storm and a hurricane? 14.

39、直讨论飓风问题，故 A正确。对话提到过几个飓风的名字，也说到风速是区别热带低压 (tropical depressions)、暴风 (storm)与飓风 (hurricane)的指标，最后还提到电视上会有对飓风的最新报道， B、 C、 D均是一些细节，但它们都不是对话的主题，都不对。正确答案特征：在对话开头就会提及，往往在对话中多次提到。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 对话中女士提到了低气压、暴风和飓风，男士就问 “它们有什么区别 ”，女士说，其区别在风速。 故 B正确。 A中的 the time they land应改为 wind velocity或 the sp

40、eed wind travels； C中的 least应改为 most， D中的 less应改为more。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 男士在问到地图上的人名时，女士解释说： “天气预报工作者给飓风取上人的名字，以便使它们容易区别开来。 ”B项中的 tell apart即对话中的identify之义，故 B正确，含有因果、目的等关系的语义突出之处常设考点。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 对话结尾处女士说， “你该打开电视，它报道最清楚。 5分钟后就会有最新报道了。 ”因此对话中的两人是准备看电视上的天气预报，选 D。四个选项的动词及其宾

41、语构成的搭配，一般由动词确定答案 (原词再现或同义替换 )。本题原文是 turn on the television，应选 D而不是 B!这里应根据名词 TV选出答案 ! 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 16 【听力原文】 In the world of business, it is not always easy for women to do the same things as men. Consider the working dinner. In order to do your job well, its important to sometimes see client

42、s and business contacts away from the office. In a more relaxed atmosphere, you can get to know your business partner better. In the end, after all, people do business with people they like. Women start out at a disadvantage because its tough to invite men out for a game of golf or tennis. Men usual

43、ly prefer to play sports with other men. You might think that restaurants are the perfect playing field. But they can be dangerous ground.17If people from the office see two men they know having dinner together, they think its business. If colleagues see a woman dining with a man, they often wonder

44、if its another kind of business. One answer is to take another colleague or client to dinner. Of course, this isnt always convenient. So when I cant do this, I take guys out to dinner one-to-one to places where Im most likely to see colleagues. The more your colleagues see you having working dinners

46、ikely to be seen by her colleagues? 16 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项以 To开头表目的。本题是细节题，符合短文听力 “听到什么选什么 ”的解题原则。由此不难选出答案 A。 【知识模块】 听力 17 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题考查对细节的记忆。 B项为原文的同 义概括，故为答案。解答本题也可依据常识推测出正确选项 B。 【知识模块】 听力 18 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 浏览选项可知，本题询问某事的原因。录音最后一句就是答案的所在，故选 D。短文结尾处常设考点。 【知识模块】 听力 19 【听力原文】 England is not a
