23、ns. What would you say? Q:What does the woman suggest? 1 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 推断题。此题的难点在于推断女士话语的弦外之音。结合男士说的“这台电视机现在完全坏了 ”，便不难推断出女士提到电视大甩卖广告的实质是想买一台新电视机，故选 D。 A、 B、 C只是利用 bargain、 sale、 advertise进行语音干扰。 【知识模块】 短对话 2 【听力原文】 W:This has been the worst flood for the past 20 years.

Q:What does the man think of Los Angeles? 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 BUT题。 But后面的转折指出 “洛杉矶的人们受到空气污染的烦扰 ”。故选 A。也可以从后两句的解释中得出正确答案， fog， smoke and automobile exhaust(汽车尾气 )肯定是和空气污染有关的。另外，最后一句中的 it肯定
28、指的是空气中的污染物，所以意思还是说空气受到了污染。因此也可以判断正确答案为 A。 【知识模块】 短对话 5 【听力原文】 M:Hello! Im a senior student. Can you tell me whether this reference room is only for faculty members?

32、y talking about? 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 主旨题。四个选项都是名词或动名词短语，预读可知，问的是谈话的主题。男士说需要 36学分才能获得文学硕士学位，接着作了详细说明，故选C。 B的涉及面太广，他们只谈到了学分要求，并没有谈其他方面； A是无中生有， D属于原词干扰。 【知识模块】 短对话 8 【听力原文 】 M:You call Henry a dreamer, but I think hes got a lot of good ideas. W:Well, good ideas are only useful if you make something out
33、of them. I dont think a day-dreamer can be a good entrepreneur. Q:What does the woman think of Henry? 8 【正确答案】 C 【试题解 析】 语义理解题。关键是听到女士说的 “只有从中有所得的想法才能称之为好的想法 ”。言外之意即 Henry没有将想法付诸实践。故选 C。 【知识模块】 短对话 9 【听力原文】 M:Are you going to the demonstration to help stop the spread of nuclear weapons tomorrow, Cle
