15、试卷 270答案解析(总分:50.00,做题时间:90 分钟)一、Listening Comprehens(总题数:12,分数:50.00)1.Part II Listening Comprehension_解析:2.Section A_解析:A.Their personal life. B.Educational opportunities.C.Political development.D.Their views on international issues.解析:解析:新闻提到,被调查者要求就一系列问题,包括对国家及个人生活、经济发展、就业机会、中东和平的可能性发表自己的看法,A 与新
16、闻中的 concerns facing their personal life对应,故选A。B“教育机会”、C“政治发展”和 D“对国际事务的看法”均与新闻所说的内容有偏差。A.In Morocco, both satisfaction and optimism have doubled.B.Optimism grows generally in the Arab world in recent years. C.Many Arab countries have improved the income of their citizens.D.There is an acceleration o
17、f the economic growth in the Arab world.解析:解析:新闻提到,总的来说,被调查者对他们的生活感到满意,对未来持乐观态度,这种满意度和乐观度高于 10年前的民意调查,故答案为 B。A“摩洛哥人民的满意度和乐观度成倍提高”中的 Morocco应为 Lebanon。C“许多阿拉伯国家提高了公民的收入”和 D“阿拉伯地区的经济加速发展”都无法从新闻中推断出。A.To arrest the leader of the opposition party.B.To prepare for the presidential elections. C.To answer
18、his charges at home.D.To protect his supporters.解析:解析:新闻一开始就提到,Kizza Basigye 是乌干达反对党的首领,他返回 Kampala这地方是为了准备明年的总统大选(for the presidential elections next year)。B 复现原文原词,为答案。新闻是说 Basigye回国后被捕,而他本身就是反对党首领,A“逮捕反对党首领”错误。C“回应对他的指控”是执政党要求 Basigye做的事,不是他回国的初衷。D“保护他的支持者”没有在新闻中提到。A.Ugandas multi-party elections
19、 were darkened. B.Economic support from western nations was cut off.C.Ugandas role model in the region was canceled.D.Ugandas relationship with its donors felt strained.解析:解析:根据新闻可知,题目问的 Basigyes incident指 Basigye被逮捕一事。新闻中提到该事件可能会使得该国 20年来的首次多党选举蒙上阴影(darken the countrys first multi-party elections i
20、n two decades),A 将新闻中的动宾结构换成了被动语态(was darkened),所述意思与新闻一致,故为答案。B“西方国家的经济支持力度被减弱”、C“乌干达在该地区的模范地位被取消”和 D“乌干达与其捐赠者的关系紧张”均复现了新闻个别原词,但所述与新闻意思不符。A.It was wet and cold.B.It was hot and dry.C.It was cold and terrible.D.It was hot and terrible. 解析:解析:新闻开头提到,美国每年都会回顾过去一年的天气,发现去年的天气十分怪异。接着具体说这一年十分炎热,并且出现很多极端天气
21、,并导致严重的经济损失,可见天气十分糟糕。D“天气炎热且糟糕”与新闻内容相符。A 和 C都错在 cold,新闻中的确原词这一年十分潮湿(wet),但也是炎热的。同理,B 中的 dry与新闻内容 wet不符。A.All the extreme weather events.B.El Nino and a warmer climate. C.Light snows and record rain.D.The lands surrounded by ocean.解析:解析:新闻中间部分提到造成新闻天气情况的原因(cause):温暖的气候(a warming climate)和强烈的厄尔尼诺现象(a
22、super strong El Nino),B 与新闻原意相同,故为答案。A.There was record-breaking snowfall. B.There was recording-breaking rainfall.C.It were the warmest months ever recorded.D.It were the wettest months ever recorded.解析:解析:新闻后段提到,美国天气不仅温和,而且湿度较大,导致美国东北部在去年二、三月出现纪录性降雪(record snows),故答案为 A。B 说的“记录性降雨”是发生在美国南部和中西部(Sou
23、th and Midwest)。C 和 D只是利用新闻末尾中的 much warmer和 more moisture作干扰,都没有实质根据。3.Section B_解析:A.It allows him to make a lot of friends.B.It requires him to work long hours. C.It enables him to apply theory to practice.D.It helps him understand people better.解析:解析:对话一开始男士就回答说他要工作很长时间,每天 11个小时,每周 6天。因此答案为B。A“使
24、他能交到很多朋友”、C“使他得以将理论应用于实践”和 D“帮助他更好地理解人们”录音未提及。A.It is intellectually challenging.B.It requires him to do washing-up all the time.C.It exposes him to oily smoke all day long.D.It demands physical endurance and patience. 解析:解析:女士问这份工作比较困难的是什么?男士回答说要一直站着,结合工作时间长,可判断出这份工作需要耐力和耐心。因此答案为 D。A“在智力上有挑战”和 C“整天
25、接触油烟”无原文依据;男士在前面曾说到“不需要洗餐具”,因此 B错误。A.In a hospital.B.At a coffee shop.C.At a laundry.D.In a hotel. 解析:解析:男士说给 6个宾馆写了信,其中一个给了他第一份工作。因此答案为 D。A“医院”、B“咖啡店”和 C“干洗店”均与男士所述不符。A.Getting along well with colleagues.B.Paying attention to every detail. C.Planning everything in advance.D.Knowing the needs of cus
26、tomers.解析:解析:对话中男士说做好工作的秘诀是关注细节、热爱工作、有激情。B 属于其中之一,故为答案。A“与同事好好相处”、C“提前计划好所有事情”和 D“知道顾客的需求”均属随意捏造,原文无相关信息支持。A.The pocket money British children get B.The annual inflation rate in Britain.C.The things British children spend money on.D.The rising cost of raising a child in Britain.解析:解析:对话开头就提到这个数据表是关于
27、英国儿童的零花钱的。因此答案为 A。pocket money 为原文高频词组,由此也可以推测本对话的主题,可依据主题答题。B“英国的年通货膨胀率”、C“英国孩子花钱购买的物品”及 D“在英国养育孩子上涨的成本”均与录音所述不符。A.It enables children to live better.B.It goes down during economic recession.C.It often rises higher than inflation. D.It has gone up 25% in the past decade.解析:解析:对话中女士问过男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高
28、于通货膨胀。因此答案为 C。对话中提到词组 better off,A 的 live better为干扰项;B“在经济不景气时下降”原文未提及;D 中的 25尽管在原文中提到过,但 past decade“过去十年”未提及。A.Parents in Britain are too generous. B.Parents in Britain make more money.C.Parents in Britain love their children too much.D.Parents in Britain want their children to be better off.解析:解析
29、:对话中女士问男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高于通货膨胀,男士回答原因可能是英国的父母过于慷慨(Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous)。A 是对此的原词复现,故为答案。B“英国的父母挣钱更多了”和 C“英国的父母太爱孩子了”录音未提及;D“英国的父母希望孩子生活得更好”利用原词 better off制造干扰,但与男士所给原因不符。A.Save up for their future education.B.Pay for small personal things. C.Buy their own shoes and socks.D.Make d
30、onations when necessary.解析:解析:当女士问男士期望孩子们用零花钱干什么的时候,他回答说他们可以用这些钱买点小的私人物品。因此答案为 B。A“为将来的学业存起来”和 D“必要的时候捐款”原文未提及;C“给他们自己买鞋和袜子”为强干扰项,这实际上与原文说的“不指望他们存钱给自己买袜子”相悖。4.Section C_解析:A.Its protection is often neglected by children.B.It cannot be fully restored once damaged.C.There are many false notions about
31、it. D.There are various ways to protect it.解析:解析:原文开篇便提出,有关于眼镜和视力的一些公认的看法并不真实。C 中的 false notions为原文主题句提及的 beliefs that ale not proven facts的同义替换,因此答案为 C。A“孩子经常忽视视力保护”、B“视力一旦受损不能完全恢复”和 D“有多种保护视力的方法”与录音所述不符。A.It may make the wearer feel tired.B.It will gradually weaken the eyes of adults.C.It can lead
32、 to the loss of vision in children. D.It can permanently change the eye structure.解析:解析:原文提到,研究表明,戴度数不正确的眼镜对成年人没有危害,但却可能令孩子视力受损。C的 lead to the loss of vision in children为原文的同义表达,故正确。A“可能使佩戴者感到疲劳”、B“会逐渐弱化成年人的视力”和 D“能永久性地改变眼睛结构”与研究结果不符。A.It can never be done even with high technology.B.It is the best
33、way to restore damaged eyesight.C.It is a major achievement in eye surgery.D.It can only be partly accomplished now. 解析:解析:原文提到眼睛只有部分结构可以移植,D 中的 only partly为原文 only certain parts的同义替换,故答案为 D。A“即使运用高科技也永远无法做到”中的 never与短文末尾处的 may be possible“有可能实现”不符;B“是恢复受损视力的最好方法”和 C“是眼睛外科手术中的主要成就”均未提及,应一并排除。A.They
34、think they should follow the current trend.B.Nursing homes are well-equipped and convenient.C.Adult day-care centers are easily accessible.D.They have jobs and other commitments. 解析:解析:原文提到,成年子女往往需要工作并肩负其他责任,因此他们更倾向于使用社区服务。D 与此相符(其中 commitments为原文 responsibilities的同义替换),故正确。A“他们认为该跟随当下的潮流”、B“疗养院设备完好
35、且方便”和 C“成人日托中心易于使用”与录音不符。A.They dont want to use up all their life savings. B.They fear they will regret it afterwards.C.They would like to spend more time with them.D.They dont want to see their husbands poorly treated.解析:解析:原文提到,社会工作者发现,妻子们通常试图尽可能久地亲自照顾丈夫,原因在于她们不想把生活积蓄用光,因此答案为 A。B“她们担心过后会后悔”、C“她们想
36、跟丈夫多待在一起”和 D“她们不想看到丈夫受到不好的对待”均未在短文中提及。A.Provide professional standard care.B.Be affectionate and cooperative.C.Be frank and seek help from others. D.Make full use of community facilities.解析:解析:原文提到 caregivers应该学会清楚表明自己的需求和看法,并向兄弟姐妹寻求帮助,C 中的 be frank和 seek help分别为原文 state clearly和 ask for help的同义替换,因
37、此为答案。B 为强干扰项,affectionate and cooperative“深情并合作”为原文原词,但原文中这两个词组的主语为 The elderly,即指接受照顾的老年人,而非问题所问的 caregiver。A“提供专业标准的护理”和 D“充分利用社区设施”并非 caregiver必须学会做的。A.Health and safety conditions in the workplace. B.Rights and responsibilities of company employees.C.Common complaints made by office workers.D.Co
38、nflicts between labor and management.解析:解析:原文提到,自从工会代表到访并告知我们的权利与保护措施后,员工们一直在担心健康状况并抱怨工作场所的安全风险,此为该短文的主题句,下文的内容均围绕此展开,答案为 A。主旨题常可从听力文章开头获取答案,应留意听总结性的话语。B“公司雇员的权利与责任”、C“办公室员工的普遍抱怨”和 D“员工与管理层之间的冲突”与录音主旨不符。A.Replace its out-dated equipment. B.Improve the welfare of affected workers.C.Follow government
39、regulations strictly.D.Provide extra health compensation.解析:解析:原文提到,这位员工要求公司更换过时的设备。A 与原文内容完全一致,故正确。B“改进受影响员工的福利”、C“严格遵守政府规章”和 D“提供额外的健康补偿”均属主观臆断,无原文根据。A.They requested to transfer to a safer department. B.They quit work to protect their unborn babies.C.They sought help from union representatives.D.
40、They wanted to work shorter hours.解析:解析:原文提到,这两个孕妇请求换岗,转到更安全的部门工作,A 与原文内容完全一致,故正确。B“辞职以保护未出生的孩子”是利用原文中的 unborn babies制造的干扰,但该项中的 quit work明显与原文的 transfer不符:C“向工会代表求助”和 D“想减少工作时间”均未在文中提及。A.To show how they love winter sports.B.To attract the attention from the media.C.To protest against the poor working conditions. D.To protect themselves against the cold weather.解析:解析:短文提到工人们不断向老板反映暖气出了故障却没有收到效果,所以“就开会决定第二天一起都穿滑雪服上班”。这表明,“穿滑雪服”是工人们向老板表示抗议的一种方式,故选 C。预读选项可知,四个选项均为不定式,本题可能问某个目的或动作。A“表明他们有多爱冬季运动”、B“吸引媒体的关注”和 D“躲避寒冷的天气”均与录音提到的目的不符。
