33、ot true about the sweater that the man buys? 11. What is the womans suggestion? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 主旨题。男士一开始就说他买的并不是他想要的 ，所以 A项可以排除。紧接着他又抱怨推销员鼓动他，在他还没有反应过来的情况下就把东西卖给他了。 C、 D项是对话中提到的部分内容，并非重点所在。因此，选项 B为答案。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节题。男士说推销员不停地向他介绍，这件 sweater是最流行的式样，而且有很优惠的折扣，他还没弄明白怎么回事就付了钱。男士还不清楚情

34、况就付钱很明显是中了推销员的圈套，所以答案是 D项。 A项对话中并没有提到，而 B、 C两项是推销员的理由。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 细节题。四个选项都是表特征的词，问题有可能是询问哪个选项正确或错误，听音时要注意利用选项做笔记，选项 A没有提到，因此为答案。其他三个特征 (高领、长袖、无图案 )都是原词的同义表达。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节题。听了男士的叙述，女士认为他容易受骗，建议他学会怎样拒绝 (原文中的 stand up to即 C中的 turn down)那些强行推销的人。因此，答案为C。 A、 D两项是男士的意

35、思，女士只是表示了赞同。女士讲她自己 在家里拥有final say，而不是指男士的妻子，所以 B项不正确。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 M: Hi, honey! Whats going on? W: I have great news to tell you. I just found out that I was accepted as an R.A. next year!

39、re does this conversation most probably take place? 15. What will the woman probably do after the talk? 12 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节题。男士是一个乐观主义者，对失业并不绝望， A项显然错误。同时他表示，只要是女士喜欢的专业，自己都无条件支持她，故 C项错误而B项正确。 D为无关选项。预读选项可推测问题与男士有关，因此听音时可一一对选项做出正误判断，听到问题后再提取符合要求的选项。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节题。男士感到抱歉是因为自己使女士不得

40、不 postpone“推迟 ”她出国留学的时 间，答案为 C项。 A项并不是男士感到抱歉的真正原因，但它有可能先入为主，对考生产生极强的干扰。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 推理判断题。在对话快结束时，女士明确说她得挂电话了，抓住关键词 hang up就不难得出答案为 D。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 推理判断题。女士在对话结尾时说期末考试前她还要看很多书，可见她挂电话是为了去看书，故选 B。注意本题问的是她在与父亲通话结束后最有可能会去做什么，虽然她看书是为了考试，但考试 不是她讲完电话后立马会做的事情，故排除干扰项 A。 【知识模块
