43、生证。 ”所以 D正确。选项 B、 C、 D都有 first,而 所有选项的主语虽不同,内容却均表示她没有做成某事的原因,故题目应是询问原因。 “原因 ”为老生常谈的考点。听到男士问 “你那个时候为什么不注册呢 ?”就要特别注意女士的回答。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 男士说: “我们只需要登记住址:有姓名和住址的电话账单就可以了。 ”故答案为 C。所有选项都很简短,表面上提供不了多少信息。不过所有选项却都和女士的履历相关。听到什么选什么。原文中的同义解析很关键。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 男 士说 “如果你愿意,你可以找校长谈一下
44、。如果她能的话她会帮忙的。 ”后来又说 “不过不要抱太大的希望。 ”所以 A正确。所有选项内容都表示the director不做某事,都是负面的信息。假设条件句往往反着选。 “She will help you if she can”,说明她很可能没有办法帮忙。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 16 【听力原文】 A sophomore at Colorado State University first had a problem in taking tests when she began college.
