19、airly low price. W: And what about the weekend when you are on campus? M: Well, there are often guests on campus at weekends. So they allow you to buy single meals on a walk-in basis on Saturdays and Sundays. The price per meal is much higher in that way. But it will still be less for me to pay sing

21、feteria? 3. What are included in the ten-meal plan for the man? 4. How can weekend guests have meals at the cafeteria? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 男士说： “我们可以选择一周 7、 10、 14和 21餐。他们给你一张卡，上面标着一周几餐。 ”所以 B正确。对话一开始就提到 “new options for food service”这个话题，整个对话都是围绕这个话题展开，所以我们很自然要找出“What are the new options?” 的答案。 B中的 h
22、ow many meals a week是对话中seven， ten， fourteen or twenty-one meals per weekthe number of的概括。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项内容都是在描述好处，可猜测本题问学生就餐的好处。对话中听到 “So whats the deal for those who do eat at school all the time?”时，就要集中注意力听下文。男士说： “他们订的饭越多，每顿饭就越便宜。 ”对话中的 “the cheaper each one is”对应 D的 “pay less pe
23、r meal”，所以 D正确。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【 正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 男士说： “我从来不吃早餐，且周末经常出去。所以十餐计划以相对便宜的价格让我搞定周一到周五的午餐和晚餐。 ”可见对男士而言，十餐计划包括了周一到周五的午餐和晚餐，故答案是 B。注意 dinner是指 supper， D说的是周末的午晚餐，错在 weekend。 【知识模块】 听力 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 所有选项都是 “by doing sth ”的结构，语法上是回答 “how”的问题，故基本可以推断题目与如何干某事有关。男士说： “我们学校周末经常会有很多访客。 学校允许他们在周末临时买单独
24、的一餐。 ”A的 “paying for meals one at a time”是对录音中的 “buy single meals on a walk-in basis”的同义改写，所以 A正确。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 W: Dr. Thomas? This is Keet Bradley from the Daily News. Id like to ask you some questions about the new official standard weight that you purchased. M: Id be happy to help you. What
25、 would you like to know? W: First of all, how was the standard weight used? M: Well,6people in our department use it to check the scales all over the country. The department of weights and measures, we are a government agency. Its our responsibility to see that all the scales measure a kilogram accu
26、rately so this is the way we use to adjust the scales. W: How did you check the scales before? M: We have an old standard weight that we used to use. It had to be replaced because it was imprecise. You see it was made of poor quality metal that absorbed too much moisture. W: Oh. So when the weather
27、was humid it weighed more and when it was dry it weighed less. M: Exactly. And that variation can affect the standards of the whole country. So our department had the new weight made out of higher quality metal. W: How much did it cost? M: About 45,000 dollars. W: 45,000 dollars? For a one kilogram
28、weight? Thats more expensive than gold. Is it really worth that much? M: Im sure it is. Industries depend on our government agency to monitor the accuracy of scales so that when they buy and sell their products there is one standard. Think of the drug industry, for example, those companies rely on h
29、igh accuracy scales to manufacture and package medicine. 5. What is the conversation mainly about? 6. How is the new weight used? 7. Why is it necessary to replace the old standard weight? 8.

30、的问题。 ”直接进入话题，故 B正确。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 四个选项都是动词不定式结构，多表示目的 (用途 )、打算或将来的动作。根据选项内容可以判断题目询问某物的用途。男士说： “我们部门的人用它来检查全国的 (重量 )计量器 确保所有的 (重量 )计量器都能准确地测量一公斤 ” ，故答案为 A。对话中还有提示，在听到问题 “how was the standard weight used”时，要注意问题的回答。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 前面三个选项都有 it，描述的都是 it无法再使用的原因，故可基本推断出问题。男士说：
31、“你知道它是由容易渗水的劣质金属制成的。 ”故答案为C。注意 “听到什么选什么 ”。 【知识模块】 听力 8 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 根据选项的提示词 small、 value、 reasonable和 high，可猜测题目是问对某物价值的评价。男士说： “我肯定 (物有所值 )。所有产业都依靠我们政府机构来监控他们的 (重量 )计量器，从而当他们买卖产品时能有一个 (重量 )标准。 ”故D正确。 “Im sure it is”是省略句，省略 worth it，说明男士认为这个价钱物有所值。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 9 【听力原文】 To finish todays p
32、rogram, I want to tell you about the Waterside Shopping Centre, near Northport, which I visited last week It has something for everyone and I would recommend it for a day out. Its taken three years to build9and finally opened three weeks ago, two months later than planned. Firstly, getting there: th
33、ere are organized coach trips from most towns in the area but they leave early and come home very late, so I drove. There are 12,000 free parking spaces, so parking is no problem. You can also get there by train, but the station is 15 minutes from Waterside by bus, and the buses are really crowded,
34、so you sometimes have a long wait. The shopping centre is arranged on three levels. Youll find all your favorites here. In fact if you want to buy a pair of shoes there are 15 different shops to choose from on levels one and two. When you run out of money there are seven different banks, but collect
35、 your money before you get to the third level as there arent any banks up there. On that level, however, there are several restaurants, as well as a cinema with seven screens. And dont get lost like I did, go to the information desk on the first level and get a map. Before you go back to your car or
36、 the bus and in fact it might be better to do this before you go shopping and have too much to carry go and see the lake. Take a walk or have a go at fishing, sailing or windsurfing if you have time. Or you can rest your tired feet and watch the birds and ducks, but you are asked not to feed them. 9
37、. When was the shopping center opened? 10. What is the best way of traveling to Waterside according to the speaker? 11. What can you do on the third level? 12. Apart from shopping, what else can you do at Waterside? 9 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 由选项可知，此题考查时问。录音详细说明了购物中心的情况：花费三年打造，终于在三个星期前正式营业，比预期晚了两个月，故选 B。听音关键
38、在于抓住主要时间点， two months ago是计划开业的时间，并非实际时间，故C错。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 由选项可知，此题考查使用某个交通工具。因此听音重点应放在它们之间的比较上。短文提到自行驾车前往是最好的选择，而且该购物中心提供 12 000个免费停车位，可推断 C是最佳答案。短 文提到专线车出发早，回来晚；巴士很拥挤；火车站离购物中心太远等缺点，故 A、 B、 D都可排除。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 录音提及了购物中心有三层，第三层里有餐馆和电影院，可推断 B正确。表转折之处常出考题，因此听到 however就要
39、注意，记录其后的内容。三楼没有银行；买鞋子是在一楼和二楼，故 C、 D错误， A在录音原文并无提及。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 短文最后提供了一些建议，包括散步、钓鱼、帆船运动、冲浪等等。 A是其 中一项，故正确。举例处常考，考生要特别留意，凡听到并列举例之处，就要开始做笔记了。虽然短文提及 see the lake，但是那不是在车上看的，因此强干扰项 B错误。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【听力原文】 After years of study, I have determined there are only two types of people in thi
40、s world: those who get to the airport early and those who walk in just as the plane is about to take off. If there were any justice in the world, the early airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late airport people would be punished. But there is no justice. I know I have
41、 been an early airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first but it will be the last luggage to come off the plane when we land. You know who really gets his luggage first when we land? The late airport person, who rushes into the airport three minutes before the plane takes off.
42、“But if I get there really really early,“ I told myself, “I will get the best seat.“ Well, no matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three days ahead of me and asked for that seat. The utmost embarrassment of the early airport person happened to me a few years
43、 ago when I was flying from New York to Chicago. When I got to the ticket counter, the person there said, “Sir, you have a seat on the 9:15 A.M. flight, is that right?“ “Yes,“ I said. “Well, its only 7:00 A.M. flight that has not left yet. If you hurry you can make it.“ I was too embarrassed to say
44、that I arrived early so I wouldnt have to hurry. Instead, I ran down the corridor to the plane. 13. What does the speaker say about the early airport person? 14. What usually happens to the late airport person? 15. What made the speaker feel embarrassed? 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项为某种人的惯常行为或遭遇。短文说世界上有两类人，
45、然后 叙述他们的表现和遭遇，此题考查的是第一种人的遭遇，故 D正确。虚拟语气往往是考点。此题依据中的关键词是 reward，原词包含在答案之中。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 选项仍为某种人的遭遇。短文说，你知道谁在下飞机后首先拿到行李吗 ?是后登机的人，所以 C正确。录音中的问题有时候也可能是被考查的问题。自问自答之后得出此题答案。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【 正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 选项为某人遇到的窘境。说话人讲了自己的一次尴尬遭遇：他要乘9： 15的航班，却被告知赶紧去赶 7： 00那班飞机，可推断他应该登错机。数字无论是否直接考查，都要充分地利用。
