22、 am especially good at note-taking at meetings. UIve been a secretary for years, so I wont let you down./U Q: What probably is the relationship between the man and the woman? 解析 人物关系题。男士说“从你的申请(信)我看出”，可见他们的关系是面试官与应聘者，故选 D。既然提到了 application，那么他们之间还不是雇佣关系，故 C 错。let you down“意为让你失望”，而非“让你下车”，A 错。A.She

26、 approved of it, and her mom will probably do the same.B.Her morn has approved without hesitation, while her dad hasnt.C.Her dad needs time to think, while her morn definitely wont consider it.

31、 the man mean? 解析 关键是听懂男士说的“必须缩短行程，天黑前要回到家”，选项 D 则是从反面来表达相同的意思，故选 D。make it home 中的 it 不是指 mushroom，因此不可误选 C。A.Hes too talkative to be a boss.B.He doesnt support the program at all.C.He shouldnt show support only in words. D.Hes got too many things to do at a time.解析：听力原文 W: What do you think of you
