15、人，故 C错误。A.It was dark and there was a high surf advisory. B.Two Marines were killed during training.C.The reason of the accident is unclear.D.A night-time training mission is dangerous.解析：解析：新闻提到 Mooers女士告诉洛杉矶电台 KNX-AM，因为黑暗和一个巨浪警告(darkness and a high surf advisory)，所以这次搜救会很艰难。A 正确。B“两名海军陆战队员在训练时被杀”是
16、新闻末尾提到的另一场事故。C“事故的原因未知”在新闻开头有提到，但这都不是搜救困难的原因。D“夜间训练很危险”没有在新闻中提到。A.Protection of human rights. B.Training of security personnel.C.Fighting with the FARC.D.Regional security cooperation.解析：解析：新闻提到哥伦比亚军队与哥伦比亚革命武装力量(FARC)进行了几十年的战斗，磨练了战斗技能，同时将保护人权纳入其宗旨(combining protection of human rights as an integral
17、part)。故 A正确。新闻开头提到哥伦比亚已经帮助 40多个国家培训了成千上万的安保人员，但这并非其宗旨，排除B。C“与 FARC战斗”和 D“区域安全协作”均有在新闻中提到，但都不是哥伦比亚军队的宗旨，故排除。A.About $324 million.B.About $15 million.C.More than $324 million.D.More than $50 million. 解析：解析：新闻提到在上一财年，美国向哥伦比亚提供了 5000多万美元的国防资金。故正确答案为D。324 亿美元出现在“一个涉资 324 亿美元的双边项目”，美国向哥伦比亚提供了 5000多万美元的国防资

D.In 1987.解析：解析：新闻开头提到多氯联苯(PCB)从 20世纪 20年代被制作出来后，于 1981年被英国所禁止。故C正确。A“1920 年”是 PCB问世的时间。B“1979 年”是在美国被禁止的时间。D“1987 年”是被欧盟的其他国家禁止的时间。A.They have great influence on peoples health B.They exist permanently in the environmentC.Their production

20、均与新闻内容不符。A.There arent any PCBs in Europes waters.B.1,000 killer whales and dolphins carry PCBs.C.There is no relation between PCBs and environmentD.PCBs still exist in European whales. 解析：解析：新闻的最后提到，杰普森博士解释说其研究结果显示 PCB仍然存在于欧洲的鲸类中。故 D正确。新闻中提到有很多 PCB流入河流和河口，最终流入了海洋环境，故 A“欧洲的水体没有 PCB”与新闻不符。研究人员分析了欧洲海域
21、的 1000多个虎鲸和海豚的样本，并不表示有 1000条虎鲸和海豚携带了PCB，故 B错误。整篇新闻都涉及了 PCB和环境污染的联系，故 C不对。3.Section B_解析：A.Unconscious behavior patterns.B.Recent trends in psychology.C.Reasons for certain behavior problems.

23、ly late himself.D.He loses pay for being late to work but doesnt seem to mind.解析：解析：女士说，让她生气的是，Mark 总是迟到，老让朋友等，而像工作之类的事情却不会迟到。所以 A正确。A.Trying to get Mark to talk about his problem.B.Helping Mark relax and be more comfortable in a group.C.Leaving a message to Mark instead of waiting for him.D.Telling
24、 Mark to come earlier than the planned meeting time. 解析：解析：女士说，她有时总想告诉 Mark一个比预定时间早的时间，比如说告诉他 7点钟到，告诉别人 7：15 到，这样大家就不用等他太久，因此答案为 D。get the message 意思是“明白，领会”，不是C中的 leave a message“留口信”。A.To purchase some better-quality tapes for the new player.B.To ask for a replacement of some valuable cassettes.C.
25、To expect to have the cassette player repaired for free. D.To make complaints about the after-service of the store.解析：解析：四个选项都是动词不定式，题目应该是问目的或将做什么。男士说：“我想要你帮我修it”。此处的 it指代前面提到的 cassette player。所以 C正确。A.It injured the user.B.It ran slowly.C.It ate too much.D.It ruined tapes. 解析：解析：结合前后两题的选项，猜测本题选项中的

C.He destroyed the purchase purposefully.D.He used the machine in a wrong way.解析：解析：根据选项判断，本题可能是问他(要求退换货品)被拒绝的原因。女士一再强调“你的保修期已经过了”。所以 B正确。A.Theres always

31、ey use both of their hands.B.They become one-handed and start using both hands alternately. C.One of their hands develops more skillfully as they age.D.Most children in the world are born right-handed.解析：解析：选项都是概括性的陈述，可以猜测本题需要综合全文的大意来解答。原文用很长的一段话来叙述婴儿几周大的时候用双手，几周大的时候更常用单手(左手或者右手)，可知婴儿在 8岁以前是交替使用单、双手
32、的，故 B正确。A.He runs a store selling appliances. B.He is a master of ceremonies.C.He holds a financial consultancy.D.He is a sales manager.解析：解析：选项都是某人的工作或职务，可以猜测题目问的是这个人是干什么的。原文开头说史蒂文森先生是一家普通家用电器店的主人，故 A正确。A.Because they fail to find their favorite models.B.Because they feel disappointed at the poor s
