16、s outlined a new approach to foreign investment, with planners saying they will now focus less on attracting large amounts of cash and more on selecting investments that will bring skills and technology into the country. The change in tactics,【 B1】 _in an official document published by the National
17、Development and Reform Commission, comes after more than a year of heated debate over the role foreign investors should play in Chinas economy. China has long been one of the worlds top destinations for foreign investment, and international companies 【 B2】 _more than $70 billion last year, drawn by
18、the countrys low costs, 【 B3】 _ prowess(高超技艺 )and huge domestic market. But the inroads(进展 )have caused some unease among both ordinary people and officials, who also want to see domestic companies do well. The new foreign-investment plan, which isnt a【 B4】 _ blueprint but rather a statement of broa
19、d principles, does say that regulators will look more closely at foreign takeovers of local companies and other issues of “national economic security“ that have received increasing attention recently. But the vision it advances represents neither an attempt to completely 【 B5】 _ Chinas economy nor a
20、 new round of liberalization. The planning 【 B6】 _ said its major goal is to advance what it calls a “【 B7】_ shift from quantity to quality“ of investment. For instance, new investments by foreign companies will face【 B8】 _ environmental and land-use standards. On the other hand, multinationals can

M: Whats the
23、point? I dont understand a single word in it! It seems as if they were written in a foreign language. Q: What can we learn from the conversation? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 关键在于听明白男士所说的 “我一个词都不懂 ”，正确选项 B正是原文的同义替换。后一句只是对该句的补充。女士问 “考试之前要不要我给你解释一下这些问题 ”，可知女士对考试没有问题，故强干扰项 C错。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【听力原文】 M: My English tea
24、cher suggested that I come in and borrow one of these English-Chinese dictionaries. W: Of course, Mr. Jackson. You are welcome to use our dictionaries. But they may not be taken from this room.

25、试题解析】 建议题。四个选项都是动词短语，可推断询问的是建议或打算。本题关键在于抓听女士说的 “你自己要是有一本词典不是更好吗 ?”这是提出建议的一种表达方式。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【听力原文】 W: Did you go see the doctor about your cough? M: The doctor said if I keep smoking it will increase my chance of having a heart attack or lung disease. And I am thinking about quitting smoking as the
26、 problems seem to be quite serious. Q: What do we know about the man? 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 推断题。本题要在听懂原文的基础上推断出正确答案。女士问男士咳嗽去看过医生没有，男士转述医生的话，如果继续吸烟，那么他患心脏病或肺炎的几率将增大，由此可推断出男士的咳嗽是由吸烟引起的。关键词和短语是cough和 keep smoking。男士的回答中 a heart attack和 lung disease是并列结构，所以 A、 B均不能入选。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【听力原文】 W: Could you tell me
27、 how many of your employees are women? M: Yes, certainly. We have a very high percentage of female staff. We employ about 160 women, which is eighty percent of all our staff.

28、职员为 40个。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 W: Mike said that he is looking for a job in the bookstore. M: Really? If I remember right, he had a chance to work there, but he turned it down.

29、工作机会 ”，理解词组 turn down“拒绝 ”是解题关键。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【听力原文】 W: Is Aunt Margaret in? I have got something important to tell her. M: Sorry, Mom has gone shopping. She wont be back until noon. Do you want to leave a message for her so that she would call you back as soon as possible? Q: What do you think is th
30、e relationship between the two speakers? 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 身份关系题。关键在于听到两个称谓 Aunt和 Mom，由此可以断定男士的妈妈是女士的姨妈，故这两个人是表亲，所以选 A。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【听力原文】 W: Bill is a person who is very shy and quiet. He rarely says a thing. I just cant bear with him sometimes as he speaks too little. M: Oh, but his brother Jerry
31、is just the opposite. Q: What do you know from this conversation about Jerry? 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 解答本题，两个人的话都要听懂。女士说 Bill非常害羞且安静，很少说话；男士说他的哥哥 Jerry则恰恰相反，所以答案选 A。 A项意为 “性格开朗，健谈 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 8 【听力原文 】 M: I have to go to Professor Hudsons place to discuss my thesis. But if time allowed, Id go to the movi
32、es with you when I come back the dorm. W: Its too bad. I am going to the cinema right now with Jane, and I dont think you could make it. Q: What is the man going to do? 8 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 细节题。预读选项可知，问题问的是 He要做什么，所以在听音时一定要注意抓听男士要做的动作。答案选 A，即男士要去教授家里，而 But后面的纯属干扰信息，虚拟语气本身就表明不可能实现的情况。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【听力原文】

39、look at every piece of fruit进行语音干扰。 D与女士所说的 give up a little control意思一致，为正确答案。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 列举中直接提到了 cereals。 A的干扰性较大，女士建议 “你经常使用的品牌产品可以上网选购 ”，并没有说这些产品是 “名牌 产品 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 W: Dan, did you want to see me?
