22、e. During the pause, you should read the four choices of A, B, C and D, and mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO.You have thirty seconds to preview the questions._解析：A.He is extremely obsessed with rock climbing.B.He seems to be a little exaggerated about it.C.He spent only 30 m
23、inutes to climb the rocks.D.He often climbs the hills behind his house.解析：解析：对话开头，女士说她在简历里看到男士的兴趣是攀岩，所以问他最近一次攀岩是什么时候，男士说大概半年前去过。女士问是不是去过什么有趣的地方攀岩，男士回答说就花了大概30分钟爬上了我房子后面的山。由此可见，男士所说的攀岩爱好其实只是爬山，而且女士后来反应：“在你家后面?你是说攀岩?”由此可知，B项“他在攀岩这件事上有一点夸大”为正确答案。A.Because it is a company that is larger than Networld.B.
24、Because it has the potential to grow into a big company.C.Because it is the company that attracts the man in particular.D.Because it gives him experience that helps him to move on.解析：解析：选项都是以Because开头，由此推测问题问某事原因，而且可知是关于company的。对话中女士问男士，InnoTech有什么特别吸引他的地方，结果男士的回答是他把InnoTech当作跳板，先从这里得到必要的经验，然后跳槽到规模
25、更大的公司。由此可见，D项符合对话内容，为正确答案。A.He gives the employee a performance review.B.He gives a warning to remind the employee.C.He asks the lazy employee to leave directly.D.He tries to develop the employees motivation解析：解析：当女士请男士举例说明他是如何管理特别难搞的员工时，男士举例说曾叫一个不尽力尽责、懒惰的人直接滚蛋。男士其后也说到，如果有人不努力工作，那么就让他走人。因此根据这一对话内容，C
26、项为正确答案。对话中，女士问他是否有给他一个绩效考核或者警告，或者尝试帮他提升工作动力时，男士的回答是没有，而且还说这些都是没用的垃圾，所以其他选项都是错误的。A.Elementary.B.Intermediate.C.Upper-intermediate.D.Advanced.解析：解析：选项都是关于级别的形容词，听音时注意问题问的是什么的级别。当女士说从他的简历中了解到他普通话流利时，他纠正说到，不算说得很流利，但是很喜欢中国菜，所以能读懂菜单。由此可推测。男士的普通话还处于初级水平，远远达不到中级甚至是高级水平，因此A项为正确答案。A.He remains humble all the
27、time.B.He is overconfident in himself.C.He always shows his consideration.D.He is communicative and cautious.解析：解析：选项都是关于对He的评价，听音时要留意He的说话内容及表现。在对话的最后，女士请男士描述他曾经完成过的一次极具挑战性的交易，男士回答说他从未遇过有挑战性的交易，它们都太简单了，他一直都能完成交易。由此可见，男士对自己过分自信。因此B项为正确答案。A.Professor and student.B.Professor and assistant.C.Librarian
28、and student.D.Fellow students.解析：解析：选项都是表示身份的名词短语，由此可以推断问题与人物关系有关。对话开头两人互相打完招呼后，Myra跟Arthur说“你也选了生态学311这门课?”。因此可以判断两人都是学生，故本题选D。A.Its a required course for him.B.Its interesting and important.C.He needs it for his BA program.D.It helps him in his office job.解析：解析：Arthur讲到自己打算把专业定为工商管理，Myra认为修生态学这门课程
29、对办公室工作没什么帮助，Arthur也承认两者关系不大，但是他认为这门课程很有趣，也挺重要的，故选B。Arthur讲到生态学311是自己这学期的唯一一门选修课，并不是必修课，因此A不正确；后来虽然提到了“important”，但是并不是对他的学士课程重要。当然也不是因为对办公室工作有帮助才选择这门课程的，所以选项C和D都不正确。A.Its an elective course for her.B.She needs to broaden her vision.C.She needs it for her BS program.D.Its taught by an engaging lectur
30、er.解析：解析：Myra在谈到自己修这门课的原因时讲到，自己的学士课程需要修这门课程，因此本题选C。同时她讲到这门课不是自己的选修课，因此A不正确。B项利用原文中个别字眼如broaden做干扰。虽然也有提到这门课的老师是DrForsythe，应该会很吸引人，但这并不是最重要的原因，因此选项D不正确。A.Because it costs too much to buy a new textbook.B.Because the publishers didnt print much new texts.C.Because many secondhand textbooks are availab
31、le.D.Because the textbook has long been out of print.解析：解析：Myra问Arthur是否有买到教材，Arthur表示自己正在试图买一本二手教材，因为新书太贵，要45美元一本，因此本题选A。B“出版商没有印刷很多新课本”是新书昂贵的原因，而不是男士买二手书的原因。C“二手书很容易买到”和D“这本教材已经绝版很久了”都未在对话中提及。A.Buy a secondhand textbook.B.Listen to Dr. Forsythes lecture.C.Write an email to the professor.D.Put up some notes on the board.解析：解析：对话开头Myra用现在进行时提问“You are taking Ecology 311 too?”，对话最后Arthur讲到“马上八点了，DrForsythe准备来了”，由此可以判断他们的对话是在课前进行的，DrForsythe来了之后他们接下来应该就是要上课了，因此本题选B。
