23、 telephone.解析:解析:选项都是表示地点的短语,可以推测题目很可能问对话发生的地点。对话以“Hi, LewisIts Jacinta here开头而且Lewis也回答“我正要给你打电话呢”,因此他们在打电话,本题选D。A“在旅舍”,选项B“在校园”和选项C“在办公室”都与本对话无关。A.Where to live during a trip.B.Whether the hotels are full booked.C.How to find a nice but cheap hostel.D.How to save money during a trip.解析:解析:对话开头男士就讲
24、到他正在考虑去Queenstown旅行的住宿问题,后来两人分别讨论了几家不同的旅社,最后确定其中一家,因此本题选A,他们在讨论旅行时住哪的问题。B“旅馆是否被订完”、C“怎样找到好却便宜的旅社”和D“旅行时怎么省钱”都不符合对话的主题。A.Its $18.50 a night.B.Its friendly to kids.C.Its in the city center.D.Therere 8 beds in a dorm.解析:解析:预读选项可知,本题对某个宾馆的描述,听音时注意It具体指的是哪个宾馆。女士说网上有讲到这个是儿童友好型旅舍,故旅社对儿童是友好的,因此本题选B。对话中两人在谈到
25、Chalet Lodge时,提到这个旅舍每晚一张床的床位费是18美元,因此A不正确。这个旅舍离市中心有一段距离,因此C不对。每间宿舍里有12个床位,而不是8个床位,因此D不正确。A.Travellers Lodge.B.Bingleys.C.Chalet Lodge.D.Globetrotters.解析:解析:对话中女士在谈到Globetrotters时,提到这个旅舍含早餐,男士问:“其他两个不含早餐吗?”女士回答:“很可能没有,因为另外两个旅舍完全没有提到这一点。”因此本题选D。A.It also has private rooms.B.It is located in the suburb
26、s.C.Everyone gets a free skydive.D.It has no room available.解析:解析:女士讲到Globetrotters时,介绍到这个旅馆有单人房间,因此本题选A。这个旅馆位于市中心,而不是郊区。因此B不正确。每天只有一位顾客赢得免费赠送的跳伞活动,因此C不正确。男士问这个旅舍是否还有房,女士说已经查过确认有房,因此D不正确。A.Study skills.B.A novel.C.Writing techniques.D.Gardening解析:解析:对话开头老师说到他会在这节tutorial“辅导课”里把秘密花园这部小说的某些方面跟学生讲一下,同时
27、整个对话的内容都是关于这部小说的,可知正确答案为B。A和D原文没有提到。C项是辅导课中涉及的一个方面,不能概括整个课的内容。A.At the beginning of the twentieth century.B.In the middle of the twentieth century.C.At the end of the twentieth century.D.At the end of the nineteenth century.解析:解析:选项都是表示时间的短语,且和19或20世纪相关,注意对话中相关时间的表述。对话里说到故事发生的时间是shortly after the tu
28、rn of the twentieth century“进入20世纪后不久”,turn表示“(世纪或年代的)交替时期”,所以正确答案是A。A.In India.B.In the UK.C.In the US.D.In China.解析:解析:选项都是表示“在某个国家”的短语,注意对话里提到这几个国家的相关内容。原文说到故事的主人公Mary在霍乱爆发后离开印度去了英国约克郡的叔叔家,在那里她遇到了另一个主人公Colin,说明两个主人公是在英国相遇的,答案选B。A项的India是Mary原来所在的国家,而不是她和Colin相遇的地方,所以不对。C和D项对话中没有提及。A.She has to re
29、member ail the details of the story.B.She just needs to remember the basic outline.C.She should remember the narrative techniques used.D.She has to remember the plot summary of the book.解析:解析:从选项表述可猜测问题问的是女士需要记住什么东西,注意对话中的相关内容。对话中学生问老师准备考试是否需要记住故事的大量细节,老师说只需要记住basic outline(基本概要)即可,正确答案是B,相应地也排除了A项。
30、narrative techniques是学生需要focus on的地方,并没有要求说要记住,C项也不正确。老师说考官并不想读plot summary(内容简介),所以plot summary也不是考试的重点,故D也排除掉。A.The story is very interesting.B.The protagonists are kids.C.It has simple vocabulary.D.The storyline is common.解析:解析:选项看起来都与某部文学作品相关,注意对话里这几个方面的表述。对话中学生说到秘密花园是一部儿童文学作品,老师说在某种意义上他是对的,因为小说的词汇很简单,非常适合儿童阅读,可知正确答案是C。
