21、ave thirty seconds to preview the questions._解析：A.To see her new electronic devices.B.To show his entertainment center.C.To bring some textbooks to her.D.To get back his textbooks from her.解析：解析：四个选项都是不定式短语，可预测本题问原因或目的。对话开头，男士说我只是过来拿几本你需要的课本给你，由此可得出，男士拜访女士的主要目的是拿课本给女士，因此C项为正确答案。A.By her student cred
22、it card.B.By using her dads credit card.C.By her own allowance.D.By borrowing money from parents.解析：解析：选项都以By开头，可预测本题问做某事的方式。对话中男士询问女士哪里有钱买这么多新设备，质疑她是否又向父母借钱或者又使用父亲的信用卡买单，对此女士的回答是“用的是自己的学生信用卡”，因此A项为正确答案。B项“使用他爸爸的信用卡”、C项“她自己的零用钱”以及D项“借父母的钱”都不符合原文的对话内容，可以排除。A.Because she needs to fly home over the sch
23、ool break.B.Because her roommate will fly to Hawaii to buy new clothes.C.Because she and her roommate need to attend a conference.D.Because shell travel with her roommate over the school break.解析：解析：选项都以Because开头，可预测做某事的原因。对话中女士谈及使用信用卡的好处，并以“买飞机票”作为例子说明。此时，男士询问她“买什么飞机票”，女士的回答是她和室友在学校放假的时候会去夏威夷，而且她还需
24、要买一些新衣服。由此可以推断，女士和室友去夏威夷应该是去度假，因此D项内容与对话内容最符合，为正确答案。A.A wireless TV.B.A DVD player.C.An iPhone.D.An iPad.解析：解析：对话中，女士介绍完她买的电视机的新功能之后，送给男士一台新的iPad作为生日礼物，因此D项为正确答案。A.Offer solutions to the womans issue.B.Criticise the womans spending habits.C.Cancel the plane tickets.D.Pay off the womans credit card b
25、ill.解析：解析：在对话中，男士对于女士使用信用卡透支消费的方式一直表示不认同，认为女士可能没办法还清透支的钱，因此在对话结束之际，他提议和女士坐下来一起好好谈谈如何还款，解决问题，因此A项为正确答案。A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.D.Five.解析：解析：选项都是数字，注意对话里有关这几个数字的内容。对话说到，一共有5门“选修课”，但只能选其中的2门，所以答案是A。A.Media Studies.B.Communication Studies.C.Telecommunication.D.Modern Arts.解析：解析：选项看起来都是课程或专业的名字，注意各选项的相关描述。对
26、话说到学生的专业是Communication studies“传播学”，所以B正确。A在对话中也有提到，但它不是学生的专业，而是其中一门选修课的名字。C、D选项在对话中没有提到。A.Because he is not so keen on history.B.Because hes already done a lot on history.C.Because he thinks the lecturers are not good.D.Because he thinks the option is quite boring.解析：解析：选项都有Because he，可知题目问的是He做或不做
27、某事的原因。对话中tutor感觉学生不太喜欢历史，学生解释说他喜欢历史，只是这个学期已经上过很多与历史相关的课程，想选些其他主题的，所以A项不对，B项正确。C和D在对话里没有提到。A.Historical issues.B.Womens issues.C.Current issues.D.Mens issues.解析：解析：老师说如果学生想选一门主题是current issues(当代的事情)的课，可以选Identity and Popular Culture“认同与流行文化”，可知这门课的focus是当代的事情，答案选C。A.It is very difficult.B.It is quite useless.C.It may be less helpful.D.It made many things clear.解析：解析：对话中，学生说到最后一门选修课是Introduction to Cultural Theory，他比较感兴趣。但是女士说，男士的专业课中将会涉及到很多关于此课程的内容，可能没有其他一些课程有用，故本题选C。B项“挺没用的”曲解了文中less useful的意思。D项“使很多事情变得清楚”是大学二年级学生对这门课的看法。
