19、you. I dont know many of Shirleys friends, though. M: Nor do I. W: Are you here on business? M: Oh dear. Do I look that old? It must be the jet lag! No, Im still a student. Im just here on holiday. W: Oh, thats good. How do you like our city so far? M: So far, I love it. There are so many things to
20、do here, and so many things to see! W: How do you like the food? M: Very much. It makes Western food seem quite dull by comparison. I especially like the “dim sum“ here.

21、s.? M: Oh, Korean food, Malaysian, Indonesian, Japanese, and Thai. W: You know, sometimes tourists are a little hesitant about trying the local food. M: I think thats a shame really.

22、ng, you ought to try all kinds of things. M: You should really. 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节题。当被问到是不是来公干时，男士说 “我是来度假的 ”。因此B正确。 【知识模块】 对话听力 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。对话中出现最多的词都是有关于食物的，例如：food， Western food， dim sum， restau-rant， Asian cuisine等等，所以我们可以知道食物是他们讨论的主题，为什么要讨论这点，原因自然是食物给男士留下了深刻的印象，所以选 D项。 【知识模块】 对话听力
23、 3 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 态度判断题。从对话中我们可以知道男士非常喜欢亚洲的食物，那么他就不可能反对在旅游时尝试新的东西。对话中他用 shame“遗憾的 ”来表示对不尝试当地食物的态度，但是我们要注意 D选项中 shameful表示是 “不体面的 ”，千万不能被近音词所蒙蔽。所以正确答案应该是 B项而不是 D项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 4 【听力原文】 W: I want to register for this mathematics course. M: Im sorry that the registration has closed. W: Closed? The cle
24、rk told me I could come back and register at any time during the first week of classes. M: Well, thats not possible. The computers official student account has already been sent to the state. And thats what our budget is based on. Who told you that anyway? W: Some woman here when I tried to register
25、 three weeks ago. M: She must have been a temporary worker. They dont have much training. Why didnt you register then? W: She said I couldnt until I had my birth certificate. Here it is. M: Your birth certificate? W: Well, Im a new part-time student. So she asks for identification. M: Huh. Thats no
26、reason to demand a birth certificate. Im afraid she gave you the wrong information. Still youll have to wait and take your maths class next semester. W: But thats not fair. M: Well, I sympathize with your problem, but frankly, I dont think there is anything anyone can do for you. You were trapped in
27、 the system. If you want to you can talk to the director. She will help you if she can. W: Great. M: But dont get your hopes up. 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。本题的回答在对话中多处都可以找到线索，例如，当女士说有一位办事人员告诉她在上课第一周的任何时候都可以来登记时，男士直接回答 “这是不可能的 ”。在后面的对话中男士还说： “恐怕她给了你错误的信息。 ”这些都可以帮我们找到正确的选项 B项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 5 【正确答案】 D 【试题解
28、析】 细节归纳题。这个问题正好 对应的是对话中男士提出的问题：“Why didnt you register then?”找到了这个问题的回答也就找到了题目适合的答案。原对话中女士的解释是她被要求提供身份证明，而选项 D项包含了这一内容。所以是正确的选项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 态度推理题。尽管本句出现在对话的结尾，但是依然是有迹可寻的，并非要我们完全凭空想象。我们从可以从男士前面的话找出他说这句话的原因，即他认为 “尽管我很同情你的遭遇，但是我不认为这儿有谁可以帮得上你。 ”从这句话来判 断，我们可以知道选项中正确的应该是 A项。 【知识模块】 对话听力
29、 7 【听力原文】 W: Gosh! Fred, another cup of coffee? Thats your third since lunch. M: Yeah. Well, I stayed up all night cramming for my history exam. I couldnt keep my eyes open in my last class. Im having this coffee so I can stay awake this afternoon. W: Dont you know that drinking too much coffee is h
30、armful? It may cause heart disease. M: Nah. Most of the research about the link between coffee and the heart disease is inconclusive. W: But coffee has caffeine which is addictive.

31、f caffeine suffer withdraw symptoms, especially headaches? M: One cure for headaches, oddly enough, is caffeine. Besides, coffee helps me work faster. W: But faster is not necessarily better. You may finish your exam in a shorter period of time but you wont have fewer errors. M: You know, that soda
32、you are drinking has caffeine in it too. W: But 12 ounces of soda has only half the caffeine of a 5 ounces cup of coffee. And a cup of tea has less than that. M: But I like the taste of coffee. W: You could drink decaf. Decaffeinated coffee doesnt have as much flavor or body as regular coffee. Besid
33、es, I also want something that will keep me alert in class. 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。我们在听整个对话的过程中，首先可以确定对话的主题和 coffee有关，而后又听到了很多这样的词，如： harmful， addicted，caffeine， work faster等等，这样我们就可以有一个大概的猜想：对话讨论的焦点应该是 A项。而后稍加分析，可以得出其他选项在对话 中出现的比重很小，所以不可能成为议题。因此， A项便毫无疑问地成为最佳答案。 【知识模块】 对话听力 8 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节判断题
34、。对话由女士的惊叹开始，男士接下来便对自己的行为做出了解释。他说： “为了历史考试整晚都在学习，所以上上一堂课的时候几乎都睁不开眼了。 ”选项 C具有很强的迷惑性，但男士是 “困 ”(睁不开眼 )而不是 “累 ”，因此可排除。选项 D的判断是准确的。符合原意。 【知识模块】 对话听力 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 态度归纳题。对话中两人就咖啡的 影响展开了讨论，女士为了说明自己的观点，提出了很多辅助的论据，但是男士并不认同。比如，男士就认为大多数研究表明咖啡和心脏病之间的联系是不具有决定性的。对话中的用词inconclusive体现在选项中就是 not necessarily，所以 B项
35、是正确选项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 态度归纳题。这道题和上一题的提问方式稍有变化，但是其实质却有异曲同工之妙。说得简单一点，也就是在考女士对喝咖啡的态度问题。从一开始她说话时用到的 harmful一词，我们就可有个基 本的判断，下面的对话中女士也没有改变她的看法，所以选项中最贴近的应该是 C项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 11 【听力原文】 W: Oh, its very nice. I really enjoyed the meal. Thank you very much for inviting me. M: Not at all. Er. Pame
36、la. W: Did you watch TV last night, Bill? M: No, I didnt. I hardly watch television. Pamela. W: Really? I did. I watched the World Cup. The match yesterday was between Germany and Italy. It was so exciting. M: Pamela. W: Yes, both teams played well, though. Actually, I tried to ring you, but you wer
37、ent in. M: Why? W: Because it was so exciting. All the fans shouted and clapped and cheered so much that you could hardly hear anything. And I know how much you like football. M: No, I dont. I hate it. W: It is incredible, you used to play it at school, didnt you? M: Yes, I did. But I stopped playin
38、g years ago. Listen, Pamela. W: Whats the matter? You look as white as a sheet. Is there anything wrong? M: Yes, Im afraid there is. Ive got something to tell you. W: What? M: I didnt bring any money with me. I cant pay the bill. 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。对话中女士首先问男士昨天是否看了电视，当 Bill回答 “没有 ”时，她便告诉他昨天她看了
39、世界杯的比赛，而且描述比赛相当精彩。根据这些话，我们可以断定答案应该选 B项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 12 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 态度判断题。当女士说昨天给男士打了电话时，男士紧接着就问“为什么呢 ?”这个问题和题目的问题是一样的。在此我们只要把女士说的话总结一下就可以了。她回答说到： “因为比赛实在是太精彩了。所有的球 迷都大声呼喊，拍手和喝彩，几乎都听不到其他的声音了。我知道你非常喜欢足球。 ”尽管回答中原因并没直接说明的很清楚，但是根据她所这段话的意思， D项应该是最佳的答案。 【知识模块】 对话听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 细节归纳题。我们在听这段对话时，也会
40、注意到这样的一个细节，即男士说话有些吞吞吐吐，不是很自然，一开始几次都喊出女士的名字，好像要说点什么，但是一直没有说出来。直到最后一句，他说： “我没有带钱不能付账。 ”才使我们了解了其中的原因，应该是没有带钱付账而内心产生的困窘。女士一 开始已经向他请客吃饭道谢，这更增加了他的难为情，所以答案自然应该是 C项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 14 【听力原文】 W: Hi, Mark, how is it going? M: Well, not so great. Ive got a big problem with the poetry course thats required for my
41、major. W: Is that all filled up? M: No, no, meres plenty of room, but there is a prerequisite. Ive got to take an introduction to poetry before I can take the special course in poets of the 1960s and the introductory course is only offered in the evenings. W: You dont like evening classes? M: No, th
42、ats not the point. I work in the cafeteria every evening. I need the money to pay my tuition. W: Can you ask someone to switch hours with you? M: I wish I could. My boss just did me a favor by putting me on evenings. And hell hit the ceiling if I ask to change again. W: Wait a minute. I have an idea
43、. Have you checked the courses over at the community college? They might offer an introductory poetry course during the day. M: Hey, thats a great idea! Im free this afternoon. I think Ill go over and check it out. W: Yeah, their courses are actually cheaper, and you can transfer the credits over th
44、ere. M: Thanks for the advice, Linda. Ill let you know what happens. 14 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 细节判断题。男士在回答他所遇到选课的问题时，否认了是因为人数已满的原因。他说： “但是有一个前提条件，在修 20世纪 60年代诗歌这门课程之前，我必须先修一门诗歌介绍的课程，而 这样的课程只有在晚上才有。 ”根据这点，我们可以判断，正确答案是 B项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 态度判断题。女士在听了他所遇到的问题后建议他可以换班，但是男士回答一开始用了一个虚拟语气的句子 “我但愿我能行
45、 ”，然后他接着说： “我的老板照顾我，把我所有的班都安排在晚上，如果我再要换时间，他会勃然大怒的。 ”选项中 A在对话中没有提到，而 B和 D两项与原意相悖，所以只有 C项才是正确答案。 【知识模块】 对话听力 16 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细 节判断题。本题的判断要注意对话结尾部分的表述。男士对女士的建议表示赞同，并且表达了希望想去查看一下的愿望。女士提出这个建议的原因是 community college的课程可能会避开晚上的时间，从而避免冲突。与这些意思相符的非选项 D莫属了。 【知识模块】 对话听力 17 【听力原文】 M: How do you and your house
46、mates like the co-op? Im thinking of joining it myself. W: We like it quite a bit. We got some very fresh produce and both staples at fair prices. But the co-op doesnt carry everything. So we still wind up going to the supermarket too, for cleaning supplies, batteries, that sort of thing. I wish the
47、 co-op solved those items. Ive been talking about it with some of the other members. M: What do members have to do? Just pay a membership fee? W: Yeah. Theres a fee, and there are meetings. But attendance isnt required. But we do have to work there for an hour every week. M: I wouldnt mind working t
48、here sometimes. But is the food free of additives? That will be the main reason I join, Im a convert from junk food. W: Well, a lot of food is pure and pesticides-free. M: Id like to try it just for a month or so. Do they have trial memberships? W: The shortest membership is one month. Then if you l
49、ike it you can join for a longer period. And it becomes cheaper. A six-month membership costs as much as five individual months. M: Sounds pretty easy. Maybe the next time I run into you again it will be in the checkout line at the co-op. 17 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 主旨大意题。对话开始，男士就提出了一个问题，而这个问题很具有概括性，它实际上就表明了下面对话的大致方向。在对话结尾时，两人又比较详细地讨论了关于会员入会的一些问题，所以我们可以根据这些线索来判定答案 A是恰当的选项。 【知识模块】 对话听力 18 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 态度判断题。女士在介绍 co-op(合作社 )时，突出了它的一些特点，例如： “fresh produce”和 “atfair prices”，但是也指出了一些问题，她说： “我们仍然还得去超市买一些清洁用品、电池等东西
