T
29、he famous red London bus, officially called The Routemaster, is being replaced by modern buses. Like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and the red telephone box, the red bus has listed one of these heritages. It first arrived on Londons streets in 1959 to replace the trolleybuses, which were powered like a
30、 tram by overhead electric cables. In fact, my father used to drive trolleybuses and went on to drive the new red bus when they arrived almost 50 years ago. Later on, it was always a special treat for me to go to work with my dad to see all the sights of London. And it became such a star that it was
31、 even featured in Britains first Elvis Presley type film Summer Holiday starring Cliff Richard. But some people arent sad to see the back of the famous red bus. They believe Routemasters are no longer a suitable form of transport for London. 10% of Londoners cant even get onto it: old people, disabl
32、e people, people with buggies. Its a real, real problem. The hop on, hop off platform at the back of the Routemaster bus makes it a convenient form of transport for passengers. But sadly, such features also make the bus dangerous. As some research shows, people are 5 times more likely to have an acc
33、ident on a Routemaster than on any other sort of bus. After today, we can see only a few Routemasters on the Heritage Routes, special journeys that will mostly be taken by tourists. 9. According to the speaker, what is the evolution of Londons public transport? 10. What makes the Routemaster famous?
34、 11. What is the disadvantage of Routemaster? 9 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 由四个选项的 fromtoto 结构,猜测题目与交通工具的演进有关。短文说,在 50年前, Routemaster,也就是 red bus,取代了无轨电车,现在又将被现代巴士所取代,故答案是 C。每个选择包含三种车,其中都出现了Routemaster,但排列顺序不同。根据原文的提示,最早和最后出现的交通工具都不是 Routemaster,可以排除 A和 D。 B和 C相似,但 red bus是 Routemaster的俗称,排除 B。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确
35、答案】 D 【试题解析】 选项是四个描述的句子,根据主题,猜测题目与 Routemaster的特点有关。短文说, Routemaster与伦敦大钟、白金汉宫、红色电话亭齐名,被视为文化遗产之一。这些所提到的建筑物和物件是当地的象征,故答案是 D。综合全文的怀旧气息,与文化遗产很匹配。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 It选项题,根据 inconvenient、 difficult、 dangerous、 accident等关键词,猜测题目与 Routemaster的缺点有关。短文说,在车尾的可伸缩平台本来是为方便乘客上车而设计的,但这同时也增加了危险性。故答案是 D。
36、 buggies指童车,注意与读音相近的 baggage区分 (baggage是不可数名词,后面不能加s),故 A是干扰项。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 When Johnson worked in a high-travel job more than a decade ago, he signed up for every free mileage program available. He was fortunate enough to have 100,000 miles with one airline to get four free tickets. But it t
37、ook his family of four about three years to accumulate that much mileage! As a result, he paid little attention to the low-mileage balances in most of his frequent flier accounts. However, after he heard that the United Airline would start placing limits on people who didnt use frequent flier miles,
38、 he checked to see whether he had any mileage due to expire at the end of the year. Indeed, he had a grand total of 2,805 miles, far from the 25,000 miles he needed to get one free ticket. However, there were ways he could use this small number of miles to take advantage of easy freebies. He had two
39、 choices: he could either find a low-cost, low-effort way to earn additional United miles to hold onto his 2,805 miles, or he could find some low-mileage redemption opportunities to get valuable freebies with his mileage. Finally he decided to15use 2,000 miles to get the new $100 R certificate with
40、which he could get more than one dinner by using two $50 certificates. He also used his Mileage Plus number to earn 500 United miles with a participating car rental partner for a reservation he already booked. That kept his account active and prevented him from losing the remaining miles. It also br
41、ought his total mileage up to the mileage, which was enough to get another freebie later! 12. How many years did Johnson wait to get free tickets? 13. What did Johnson do after he heard of United Airlines announcement? 14. How did Johnson plan to use his low-mileage balance? 15. How much mileage was
42、 left in Johnsons account finally? 12 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 四个选择是数字,初步猜测题目问的可能与数字细节有关。短文说, Johnson全家用了三年的时间攒够了里程数才换了免费机票,故答案是 C。 【 知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 根据选项中的 call up、 look round、 look over、 ask for等,初步猜测题目问的可能与男士查询或查看某物有关。短文说, Johnson本来不注意自己的经常飞行者账户的结余,现在却因新通告要查一下在年底到期前他还有多少没用的里程数。故答案是 B。由短文可知,虽然
43、Johnson查的是结余,但不是银行余额,排除 C。 Johnson已经知道使用限期是年底,排除 A。航空公司的新政策并不是介绍新的里程计划,排除 D。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 四个选项描述的是四种举动,初步猜测题目问的可能与男士将要如何使用某项服务有关。根据录音原文,他通过租车得到 500里程数,故答案是D。根据主题,应该与 mileage服务有关,边听边做好笔记。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 四个选项都是数字,可猜测题目问的可能与男士使用的里程数有关。根据录音,本来有 2,805 miles,花了 2,000 miles换餐券
44、,使用租车服务,又增加 500里程数,所以最后账户里有 1,305 miles。 【知识模块】 听力 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Today we continue our series on ecology and conservation with a look at a particularly endangered member of the black bear family.16One in ten black bears is actually born with a white coat, which is the result of a special gene
45、that surfaces in a few. Local people have named it “the spirit bear“. And according to the legends of these communities, its snowy fur brings with it a special power. Because of this, it has always been highly regarded by local people so much that they do not speak of seeing it to anyone else. It is
46、 their way of protecting it when the strangers visit the area. The white bears habitat is quite interesting. The bears strong relationship with the old-growth rainforest is a complex one. The white bear relies on the huge centuries-old trees in the forest in many ways. For example, the old-growth tr
47、ees have extremely long roots that help prevent erosion of the soil along the banks of the many fish streams. Keeping these banks intact is important because these streams are home to salmon, which are the bears main food source. In return, the bears feeding habits nurture the forest. As the bears e
48、at salmon, they discard the skin and bone in great amounts on the forest floor, which provide vital nutrients. These produce vegetation that sustains thousands of other types of life forms, from birds to insects and more. Today, the spirit bear lives off the coast of the province of British Columbia
49、 on a few islands. There is great concern for their survival since it is estimated that less than two hundred of these white bears remain. The best way to protect them is to make every effort to preserve the delicate balance of their forest environment in other words, their ecosystem. The greatest threat to the bears existence is the loss of its habitat. Over many years, logging companies have stripped the land by cutting down a large number of trees. In addition, they have built roads which have fractured the
