14、 1:_填空项 1:_大学英语四级听力-42 答案解析(总分:252.00,做题时间:90 分钟)一、Section A(总题数:4,分数:105.00)(分数:35.00)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 W: Simon, could you return the tools I lent you for building the bookshelf last month?M: Oh, well, I hate to tell you this, but I cant seem to find them.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?解析
15、依照规律,but 后的内容是关键:“我好像找不到工具了。”D 中的 missing 对应 cant find。A、B 均为干扰项;女士要求男士归还借走的工具,可知他并未还给女士,故 C 不正确。A.B.C. D.解析:解析 W: I found an expensive diamond ring in the restroom this morning.M: If I were you, I would turn it in to the security office. It is behind the administration building.Q: What does the man
16、 suggest the woman do?解析 本题关键在于听到 If I were you.建议句:“如果我是你的话,我会把戒指交给保安室。”turn in 意思是“上交”,对应 C 中的 hand in,故 C 为答案。A.B. C.D.解析:解析 W: I am going to Marthas house. I have a paper to complete. And I need to use her computer.M: Why dont you buy one yourself? Think how much time you could save.Q: What does
17、 the man suggest the woman do?解析 关键是要听到男士所用的表示建议的句型:“为什么不自己买一台电脑呢?”故选 B。A 是对男士后一句话(想想看你能节省多少时间啊)的曲解;C 是女士的本意;D 为原文只言片语的胡乱拼凑。注意Why dont you.或 Why not.是典型的提出建议的句型。A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 W: Daddy, I have decided to give up science and go to business school.M: Well, it is your choice as long as pay your own way
18、, but I should warn you that not everyone with a business degree will make a successful manager.Q: What do we learn from the conversation?解析 女儿对老爸说,她要放弃 science 而去读 business school,老爸于是提了一点建议。关键是要听到男士 but 后面的话:“我得提醒你,并不是每一个拥有商业学位的人都能成为一名成功的经理。”显然,他是让女儿三思而后行,所以答案为 D。A 是无关信息;B 是对男士的话的曲解;C 过于绝对,与男士的态度不
19、符。注意对话中出现了一个重要听力(口语)词组 pay ones way“负担有关费用”。A. B.C.D.解析:解析 W: I just read in the newspaper that The Lord of the Rings is this years greatest hit. Why dont we go and see it at the Grand Cinema?M: Dont you think that cinema is a little out of the way?Q: What does the man mean?解析 本题关键在于理解习惯用语 out of th
20、e way“遥远的”。对于女士的提议,男士回答说:“你不觉得那家电影院离这儿有点远吗?”故选 A。B、C 均与原文毫不相干,D 为简单原词干扰。out of the way 可表示以下含义:不挡道,不碍事偏远,难以到达不寻常,奇特。(分数:21.00)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 W: Bob said that Seattle is a great place for conferences.M: He is certainly in the position to make that comment. He has been there so often.Q: What does the
21、man say about Bob?解析 be in the position to do 是个习惯用语,意为“有能力/有资格做”,另外关键是听懂男士说的后面一句“他(Bob)经常去那里(Seattle)”,故选 A。B 中的 chair 和 D 中的 live 所表达的信息原文根本就没有出现过,C 用简单词汇 position 进行干扰。A.B.C. D.解析:解析 W: Mr. Watson, I wonder whether its possible for me to take a vacation early next month.M: Did you fill out a requ
22、est form?Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?解析 关键是要听到女士说要“休假”,而男士要求她“填写申请表”,可以断定是上下级关系,故答案为 C。A.B. C.D.解析:解析 M: Do you want to go to the lecture this weekend? I hear that the guy who is going to deliver the lecture spent a year living in the rainforest.W: Great! I am doing
23、 a report on the rainforest. Maybe I can get some new information to add to it.Q: What does the woman mean?解析 本题关键在于听懂女士所说的“没准我可以获得一些新信息来加到我的报告中去。”也就是说她认为这个讲座富含信息,故答案为 B。选项 A、D 是利用原文中个别单词制造的干扰项;C 错在 her lecture,讲座是 the guy 而不是她做的。Conversation One(分数:28.00)(1).A. They are looking for an apartment to
24、live in.B. They are discussing living places and childrens education.C. They are complaining about their children.D. They are planning for the next weekend.(分数:7.00)A.B.

Next weekend, we go to the Museum of Natural History.M: Ok, thats really a very nice idea.19. What are the two speakers talking about?解析

She is a full-time housewife.B. She does not c
32、are for her children.C. She used to live in the suburbs in her childhood.D.

37、t get up early.(分数:7.00)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 Why is the woman late?解析 细节题。女士明确地说了“我确实很早起床,但我的表慢了 20 分钟”,所以答案是 C。A、B 两项是男士的问话,并非女士所做的回答;D 项与对话中的内容相悖。(3).A. 20 minutes. B. 13 minutes.C. 15 minutes.
