20、ext【T14】 28d) asking 【T15】 29questions【T15】 30e) making clear alternatives, or no alternatives in answers（分数：30.00）(1).【T1】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：symbolic nature）解析：解析：讲座提到，官方主持的新闻发布会的其中一个好处在于新闻发布会本身的象征性本质(symbolic nature)，即新闻发布会具有象征性，因此这里应该填入symbolic nature。(2).【T2】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：crit
21、erion/reference/standard/yardstick）解析：解析：新闻发布会的另一个优点是“发布会上所说的内容可用作此后的表述与政策的评判标准(criteria)”。由于空格前使用了不定冠词a，故应填criteria的单数形式criterion。讲座中还提到，新闻发布会所提供的信息也可用作参考，故此处填入reference亦可，或者填入近义词standard或yardstick。(3).【T3】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：efficient）解析：解析：讲座提到，当有单个问题或话题要讲时，新闻发布会有效率高的好处(benefits of efficien
22、cy)，因为行政官员可以把某个公众关心或感兴趣的问题同时对很多记者讲。根据空格后的break the news to groups of reporters，可知这里应填入efficiency的形容词形式efficient，表示“效率高的方式”。(4).【T4】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：format/manner）解析：解析：讲座明确指出新闻发布会的第一个缺点是其形式(format)让记者难以获得有价值的信息。故填入format或其近义词manner。(5).【T5】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：limitations/restrictions）
23、解析：解析：讲座提到，新闻发布会的另一个缺点来自新闻信息源(即新闻发布会的发言人)，接着便指出具体的表现。这些表现体现的应是新闻信息源所设置的约束性规定，故可填入名词limitations或restrictions，以概括提纲所举的例子。(6).【T6】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：length）解析：解析：本空格需补充完整与新闻发布会新闻信息源不足之处相关的第一个表现。讲座中首先提到新闻信息源可以决定谁提问以及回答问题的时长(the length of the answers)，填入length。(7).【T7】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：fol
24、low-up questions）解析：解析：本空涉及第二个表现。讲座中提到新闻信息源可以回避任何后续问题(can avoid any follow-up questions)，填入follow-up questions。(8).【T8】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：rephrased）解析：解析：本空考查新闻信息源不足之处的第三个表现。讲座中提到新闻信息源可以按照自己的喜好重新诠释尖锐的问题(rephrase tough questions to his or her liking)。由空格前的主语tough questions和call be可知，本空应填入rephr
25、ase的过去分词形式rephrased。(9).【T9】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：duration）解析：解析：本空涉及新闻信息源不足之处的另一个表现。讲座在讲述新闻信息源的不足之处时，提到新闻信息源可以设定会谈的时间、地点和持续时间。讲座中the time、place和duration是并列关系，故填入原词duration。(10).【T10】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：competence/qualification）解析：解析：讲座中提到成功的新闻报道有三个要素(ingredients)，包括记者自身要做的准备工作、新闻信息源(即新闻发布
26、会的发言人)要称职(competence)以及提问的性质。本题是第二个要素，故填competence或近义词qualification。如果此处信息未能听清，讲座随后在分别讲述这三个要素时，competence of news source的说法多次出现，应能捕捉到。(11).【T11】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：shaping）解析：解析：所提问题的性质(the nature of the questions asked)是成功的新闻报道的第三个要素，讲座提到人们普遍认为所提问题的性质可以决定答案的性质(can shape the nature of the answ
27、er)。由于提纲中上一题分号后使用了动词的分词形式，故此处应填入shaping，以保持形式上统一。(12).【T12】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：single meanings）解析：解析：讲座讲述了5种改进所提问题的方法，其中第一种就是避免使用有双重意思的词汇(words with double meanings)，反过来说，就是使用只有一种意思的词汇，故此处填入single meanings。(13).【T13】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：long questions）解析：解析：本空考查改进所提问题的第二种方法。讲座中提到应避免提出长问题(
28、avoid long questions)，故答案为long questions。(14).【T14】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：specifying）解析：解析：作为改进所提问题的第三种方法，讲座中提到应指定时间、地点和背景(specify the time，place and context)，考虑到与本空并列的前两处提纲均为分词形式，故填入specifying。(15).【T15】（分数：2.00）填空项1:_（正确答案：正确答案：specific/immediate/explicit）解析：解析：讲座中提到第四种改进所提问题的方法是所问的问题应与发言人自己当前或
29、最近的经历有关，而不是一些概括性的问题(in generalities)，即问一些具体、确切的(specific)问题，故此处应填入specific或explicit，也可填入讲座中的immediate。3.SECTION B INTERVIEWIn this section you will hear ONE interview. The interview will be divided into TWO parts. At the end of each part, five questions will be asked about what was said. Both the in
30、terview and the questions will be spoken ONCE ONLY. After each question there will be a ten-second pause.

32、正在攻读何种专业的硕士学位。A为答案。B错在a bachelors degree“学士学位”，根据录音可知Sally正在攻读硕士学位而非学士学位；C混淆信息，Sally本科阶段主修英语，辅修心理学；D中的primary school“小学”缺乏录音支持。A.Because it is an entirely theoretical course.B.Because it is beneficial for employment.C.Because it involves practical elements.D.Because her parents advised her to do so.
33、解析：解析：Sally谈到她目前所修的硕士研究生课程时，提到这门课程实用(has practical elements)，正因为这个原因才选择该课程的，并表示她不喜欢完全理论化的课程。因此C为答案，其中的involves是对录音原词has的近义改写。A“因为是完全理论化的课程”与Sally所述相反；B“因为有益于就业”和D“因为她父母建议她这样做”录音未提及。A.Not all of the students appreciate her work.B.Many students have difficulty in independent study.C.Some of the studen

35、ng language power制造干扰，但Sally说有些人不喜欢她的辅导工作，这些人属于不想认真习得语言能力的人，据此排除D。A.She majored in Teaching English as the Second Language.B.She participated in Music, Science as well as Art course.C.She did physical activities such as golf and horse-riding.D.She made friends with many English speaking people.解析：解析

37、Sally回答说工作开始于五月中旬(in the middle of May)，现在接近六月底(nearly the end of June)，而这个工作为期三个月，可能会在七月某个时间结束(some time in July)。选B。A.Because they lack the interest in classroom study.B.Because they dont have enough money to do that.C.Because they have to stay home for being unsociable.D.Because they cant afford
38、the public transport.解析：解析：关于有些人不能去上学，访谈中Sally提到了多种原因，例如无力支付(cant afford it)、有家人需要照顾、身患残疾而不能乘坐公共交通、厌恶课堂竞争或在早期教育经历糟糕。B是对cant afford it的同义改写，为答案。A“他们对课堂学习缺乏兴趣”录音未提及；C中的being unsociable“不合群”与录音不符；D弄错对象，这些人无力支付的是学习费用而非交通费用。A.Meeting their desire to learn on their own.B.Improving their learning abilities
39、 greatly.C.Substituting boring classroom learning.D.Preventing bad learning experiences.解析：解析：男士在访谈中两次问及independent learning，第一次Sally的回答有所偏题，第二次则做出了正面回答，提到学生对此有需求(they seem to want it)。A“满足他们独立学习的需求”正确。B“极大地提高他们的学习能力”和C“替代乏味的课堂学习”录音未提及：D“避免糟糕的学习经历”是利用录音原词bad learning experiences制造的干扰项。A.Process of e
40、valuating test usefulness.B.Process of designing a set of tests.C.Accuracy in diagnosing strength.D.Accuracy in diagnosing weakness.解析：解析：在回答男士关于如何开始识别学生的优缺点这一问题时，Sally提到，她们使用了同事设计的测试。目前效果仍在评估中，但学生似乎没有感到有压力；最大的困难是识别缺点的准确性(accuracy in diagnosing weakness)，排除C选D。A“评估测试有效性的过程”和B“设汁测试的过程”分别利用录音原词evaluat
41、ing、test、usefulness和a set of tests、designed制造干扰，与录音不符，需排除。A.Color of the cover.B.Accompanying tapes.C.Title and author.D.Unimportant details.解析：解析：男士让Sally谈谈有什么书可以推荐给关注英语发音的学生。Sally提到一本书，但书名和作者却想不起来。因此C正确。A.Because she tries to be informative.B.Because she has nothing to do later on.C.Because she wants to be impressive.D.Because she recalls something about the book.解析：解析：录音结束前男士向Sally致谢，Sally有点疑惑地问了两个问题：“现在可以走了?”“不想多问点什么吗?”随后说明原因是想多提供信息(Ive tried to be informative)，据此排除C选A。B“她随后没有事情做”和D“她记起了有关书的一些信息”缺乏录音支持。
