18、o climb into the helicopter which took off again, flying to a nearby village. The escaped prisoners then fled with their partners on motorbikes which have since been found near the port of Piraes. One of the men, Vassilis Paleokostas, was serving a twenty-five-year sentence for kidnapping and bank r
19、obbery. It“s thought his brother, who“s been on the run since 1990, was behind the breakout. The police have arrested the helicopter pilot, who says he was forced to fly to the prison at gunpoint. Korydallos holds some of the country“s most infamous criminals. What crime did Vassilis Paleokostas com
20、mit before breaking out of prison? 解析 新闻在中间部分交待其中一名越狱者在逃跑之前所犯的罪行，即绑架罪和银行抢劫罪(kidnapping and bank robbery)，A 项重现录音原词，为正确答案。A.Prison breakouts often happen here.B.It is near the port of Piraes.C.It holds some most infamous criminals. D.It is the oldest prison in Athens.解析：听力原文 What is the prison Koryda
21、llos famous for? 解析 发生越狱事件的这座监狱在雅典具有一定的知名度，是因为它“关押的都是一些臭名昭著的罪犯”，C 项复现了关键词 infamous criminals，为本题答案。新闻中讲的是发生在 Korydallos 的一起猖狂的越狱事件，但这并不能说明这里经常有犯人越狱，A 项错误。B 项“在 Piraes 附近”是犯人逃跑用的摩托车被发现的地点。D 项“它是雅典最古老的监狱”没有在新闻中提到。Questions 3 and 4 will be based on the following news item. （分数：8.00）A.In Germany.B.In Uk
22、raine. C.In Russia.D.In England.解析：听力原文 There“s great excitement that Ukraine is about to play in its first ever World Cup finals.

25、闻中开头对于乌克兰进入世界杯决赛表示很兴奋，接着提到这里的许多人都对俄罗斯无缘世界杯感到高兴，尤其注意其中使用了 here 一词，所以综合以上信息，最佳的答案应该是 B 项“乌克兰”。新闻中没有我们常常习惯听到的“这是从发回的报道”，那么我们要注意新闻报道中一些细微之处。A.Indifferent.B.Happy. C.Sad.D.Sympathetic.解析：听力原文 What is the Ukrainians“ attitude to Russia“s failure to qualify for the World Cup? 解析 新闻中提到，俄罗斯和乌克兰在足球上是竞争对手，因此在这
26、儿有很多人都因为俄岁斯没能进军世界杯决赛圈而高兴(taking great delight that Russia has failed to qualify for the World Cup)，B 项 Happy 与新闻中的 delight 同义，故为答案。Questions 5 to 7 will be based on the following news item. （分数：12.00）A.In the Java Sea.

27、力原文 Indonesian officials have recovered bodies from the sea near the wreck of an AirAsia passenger jet. The airplane crashed during a storm on Sunday.

They found the bodies soon after discovering the wreck. It included what appeared to be an orange life jacket, a red and white emergency door, e
29、tc. Searches from the air also showed what appeared to be a very large object under the surface of the water. It is believed to be the main body of the airplane. Last Tuesday, AirAsia confirmed the wreck was its lost plane. The passenger jet disappeared on Sunday halfway through what was supposed to
30、 be a two-hour flight from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore. The head of AirAsia, Tony Fernandes, said he is, “absolutely upset“ at the news. Earlier he said his heart “is filled with sadness for all the families involved.“ Where was the wreck found? 解析 题目问失事飞机的残骸是在哪里发现的。新闻中提到，印尼电视台播放了救援
31、直升机在爪哇海(Java sea)捕捞尸体。A 项正确。新闻提到，捕捞尸体的水域距离婆罗洲岛(Borneo Island)约 160 公里。B 项“在婆罗洲岛”不正确。录音提到星期日客机是在半途消失，本来的预定航线是从印尼泗水市(Indonesian city of Surabaya)到新加坡(Singapore)，故 C 项“在印尼泗水市附近”和 D 项“在新加坡”都不对。A.The bodies were wearing orange clothes.B.The bodies were about one fourth of the crew.C.The bodies were not w
32、earing life jackets. D.The bodies were all naked解析：听力原文 What did the images of the bodies show? 解析 题目问尸体的图像显示了什么。新闻说道，尸体的首批图像显示他们没有穿防护救生衣(not wearing protective life jackets)，故本题答案为 C 项。A 项“他们穿着橙色衣服”利用新闻出现的orange 一词作干扰，新闻中并未提到尸体穿的是什么衣服。救援人员在黄昏时仅发现大约四分之一的乘客和机组人员的尸体(one fourth of the passengers and cr
33、ew)，而不是四分之一的机组人员，故 B 项排除。录音并未提到所有尸体都是裸着的，故 D 项不对。A.Tuesday night.B.Sunday night.C.Last Tuesday. D.Last Sunday.解析：听力原文 When did AirAsia confirm that the wreck was its lost plane? 解析 题目问亚航什么时候证实该残骸是其失联的飞机。录音中提到是在 last Tuesday，即“上周星期二”，C 项 last Tuesday 为该处录音的原词复现，故为答案。星期日是空难发生时间，排除 B 项“星期日晚”和 D“上周日”。三、
34、Section B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Conversation One(总题数：1，分数：16.00)Questions 8 to 11 are based on the conversation you have just heard. （分数：16.00）A.She blushed when talking to a group of people. B.She couldn“t help looking at a sign when she gave a presentation.C.She didn“t know the answer to the professor“s
35、 question.D.She felt embarrassed talking to the man.解析：听力原文 M: Hi, Sarah. What“s up? W: Oh, hi, I just got out of a history class. I had to give a presentation. M: How did it go? W: Terribly. I“m sure I made a fool of myself. M: Why? Weren“t you prepared? W: No, it was not that. I just get so embarr
36、assed and nervous whenever I have to speak in front of a group of people. I stand up and my face gets red and then I get even more nervous because I know everyone can see me blushing. M: It“s not so bad to blush. W: But it happens all the time. If the professor asks a question and I know the answer,
37、 I blush like crazy if he calls on me. Doesn“t that ever happen to you? M: No, not really. Maybe you should ,lust try to forget about the people. Look at something else in the room like the exit sign. W: I guess I could try that but I doubt it“ll help. M: You know, we talked about it in psychology c
38、lass. Blushing, even though it“s involuntary, is more or less a learned behavior. W: What do you mean? M: Oh, children hardly ever blush at all. And among adults, supposedly, women blush more than men. W: I wonder why? M: I don“t know, but I have a friend at high school, Brian Smith. It was really e
39、asy to make him blush. He turned red whenever a waitress would ask him for his order. W: I“m not that bad. Well, I“ve got to get going for my next class. I“ll talk to you later. What was the woman“s problem? 解析 对话开头女士就说自己“像傻瓜”，说明她有问题，紧接着谈论的是她在众人面前说话会脸红。所以她最大的问题是 A。A.She could forget about people, so
40、 she won“t blush. B.She could know where to exit, which makes her feel safe.C.She could know how many people have left the room.D.She could get more confidence because the professor is standing there.解析：听力原文 Why might looking at the exit sign help the woman according to the man? 解析 根据对话思路，女士说完自己的问题，
41、男士很可能会提出建议。根据“也许你应该努力忽略他人的存在。”选 A。B 中的 exit 及 D 中的 professor 均属语音干扰，实际上 B、C、D 三个选项的内容在对话中均未提及。本题“小偏方”：如果没听到关键句，只听见了问题，那么从常理的角度来看，应该是 A 最合适。A.A learned one. B.A born one.C.A normal one.D.A foolish one.解析：听力原文 What kind of behavior does psychology classify blushing as? 解析 虽然四个选项都是名词性短语，但变化的是中间的修饰词，故听音
42、时要留意对某种事物或行为的描述。男士说在心理学课上讨论过脸红这个问题。即使脸红是无意识的，但它或多或少属于一种习得的行为。可见，心理学把脸红归类为一种习得的行为，故选 A。A 和 B 两项语义相反，一般正确选项为其中之一，预览选项时可把答案锁定在这两项，即使没听清楚男士的话，也可从后面男士的解释中窥见答案：儿童几乎不会脸红，由此可推断脸红不是天生的，据此不难得出 A。A.To give Sarah an exceptional example. B.To support his idea that women blush more than men.C.To introduce Brian t
43、o Sarah.D.To tell Sarah men also blush a lot.解析：听力原文 Why does the man mention his friend Brian? 解析 四个选项均以 To 开头表示目的。之前男士提到女人比男人更容易脸红，女士想知道原因，男士补充说，“我不知道，不过我有个高中同学 Brian，他特别容易脸红。”所以 Brian 是个特例，故选 A；而男士并不是想以此告诉 Sarah 男人也常脸红，故 D 错。Brian 是男性，所以 B 不可能是正确的；男士并没有提及要介绍 Brian 给 Sarah 认识，故 C 也不对。五、Conversatio
44、n Two(总题数：1，分数：16.00)Questions 12 to 15 are based on the conversation you have just heard. （分数：16.00）A.He was watching a game on TV with some friends. B.He was seeing his wife off at the airport.C.He was having a barbeque with some friends.D.He was playing a game with some friends.解析：听力原文 W: Hey, He
45、nry, how“s everything going, and what“s with the flowers? M: They“re for my wife. W: Oh, a wedding anniversary or something? M: To tell the truth, it couldn“t be worse. You see, I have to pick my wife up from the airport this evening, but while she was gone, there were a few minor mishaps. W: Oh rea
46、lly? What happened? M: Well, I had some of the guys over Friday night to watch a basketball game on TV, but one of them got all excited, and started horsing around, waving his arms, and he accidentally knocked over my wife“s 250-year-old Chinese porcelain vase given to her by her grandmother, and br
47、oke it beyond repair. W: Oh no! You“re in hot water now. M: If it had only been that. W: Oh, there“s more? M: Yeah, you see, the water from the vase spilled all over the manuscript of a book my wife has been writing for the past two years. It blurred the ink over many of the pages. W: Oh no! M: And
48、so one of the guys had the bright idea of drying the pages by the fire while we watched, uh, the rest of game, but a spark from the fire must have blown out and burned the manuscript to a crisp. W: Ah, so I get it now. You“re buying the flowers for her as a part of some kind of peace offering, right
49、? M: No, not at all. They“re for my funeral. What was Henry doing Friday night when his problems started? 解析 选项讲的是男士当时在干什么。听到女士问“哦，是吗? 发生什么事了?”时，就该预测到后面讲的是事情的经过。男士随即说道，“我有几个朋友周五晚上过来看篮球赛。”所以选 A。男士将要去机场接妻子，而不是 B；C 中的 barbeque 在录音中未提及；对话中出现过 game，但它是 basketball game!的省略表达，D 利用 game 进行语音干扰。A.Henry“s friends kicked it because they were very excited.B.Henry accidentally dropped it.C.One of Henry“s friends bumped into it with his arm. D.One of Henry“s friends was too excited to hold the vase.解析：听力原文 How was the vase broken? 解析 根据选
