14、es speaking. 大学英语四级改革适用 （听力）模拟试卷 205答案与解析 Section A 1 【听力原文】 Thousands of people living in villages closest to the volcano have already been moved to emergency shelters. Many more are lining up by the side of the road waiting for trucks to take them to safety. But still there are a few farmers refus
15、ing to move. Without their crops and animals they have no income and cannot support their families so theyre waiting until the government offers financial help. Meanwhile, the mountain above them is becoming more active by the day. At least one village about three kilometers from the volcano has bee
16、n covered in a dusting of volcanic ash. One scientist told the BBC he now believed Merapi was in what he called the early stages of a blowout but he added “we cannot predict when it will reach its peak“. 1. Why do some farmers refuse to move to emergency shelters? 2. What do we learn from the news r
17、eport? 1 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻中描写了火山附近居民在灾害发生之前的不同行为，有些人已经撤离到紧急的安全棚内有些人等候政府的卡车把他们载到安全的地方，但也有一些人考虑到灾后的生计问题而拒绝离开，希望政府能在此之前给他们一些经济支持 (until the government offers financial help)。所以选 C项。 A项 “等待卡车将他们送到安全的地方 ”是火山爆发前另外一些人的做法。 B项 “他们想一睹火山爆发的奇观 ”和 D项 “他们认为火山灰有利于作物生长 ”均没有在新闻中提到。 2 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻中提到在距离火山约三公里处
18、，至少已有一个村庄被火山灰掩埋 (has been covered)， D项 has been buried是对原文的同义改写，故选 D项。部分农民拒绝撤离，因为没有了农作物和牲畜他们将无以为生，他们希望政府给予经济支持，而不是想带着农作物和牲畜一起离开， A项错误。 B项 “政府将提供经济援助 ”没有在新闻中提到。科学家告诉 BBC说已确认 Merapi处于爆发早期阶段，但仍不能预测到火山爆发的高潮时间， C项与新闻内容不符。 3 【听力原文】 Palestinians have exported the first shipment of crops grown in Gaza green
19、houses left behind by Jewish settlers. Palestinian officials said two and a half tons of peppers left Gaza through the Karni Crossing, and will be sold in Israel. The Director of the Palestinian Economic Development Company said he was very pleased. He said the shipment moved without problems and he
20、 hopes this will be a good start. Palestinian officials hope to export a further shipment of produce to Europe, via Israel, next week. Until this summer, the greenhouses belonged to Jewish settlers in Gaza, When Israel withdrew from Gaza, and destroyed the settlements, private, foreign donors bought
21、 the greenhouses for $13 million and gave them to the Palestinians. Palestinian officials say access to the outside world is crucial for strengthening Gazas troubled economy. 3. Where would these two and a half tons of peppers be sold? 4. How could Palestinians get these greenhouses? 3 【正确答案】 C 【试题解
22、析】 新闻提到，巴勒斯坦官员声称， 2 5吨辣椒经加尼入口已离开加沙并将在以色列出售 (will besold in Israel)，故答案为 C项。本段新闻的难点之一就是其中出现了很多考生并不熟悉的地理名称，所以平时应积累一些相关的背景知识，对考试非常有帮助。 A项的 “巴勒斯坦 ”是这些辣椒的出口国， B项 “加沙 ”是辣椒的种植地，而 D项 “欧洲 ”是他们接下来进行贸易销售的地区。 4 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻提到，一些民间和国外的捐赠者以 1300万美元买下这些温室并赠送给巴勒斯坦，故选 C项。 B项具有很强的迷惑性，新闻开始时提到 “这些温室是由已撤离的犹太定居者留下的
23、。 ”但是我们仔细听下 文就能发现实际上这些温室是因捐赠者赠送而得。 A项 “他们通过武力占据 ”和 D项 “巴基斯坦政府赠送给民众 ”均没有在新闻中提到。 5 【听力原文】 U.S. officials have charged the mother of a young man. It is said that Tonya Couch and her son, Ethan fled to Mexico in November. Ethan Couch was wanted by U.S. officials for violating his punishment, in connecti
24、on with a drunk-driving crash that killed four people two years ago. That crash happened when Couch was 16 years old and drunk. He crashed into a car that was on the side of the road. He was found guilty and sentenced to 10 years under observation. Mexico drove out the mother of the young man on Wed
25、nesday. She is charged with violating the punishment of her son. In other words, she is charged with helping her son flee to Mexico. If convicted, she could face between two and 10 years in jail. The mother and son were arrested on Monday in Puerto Vallarta on Mexicos west coast. U.S. officials loca
26、ted the two when Ethan Couch used one of their phones to order pizza. It could be weeks before Ethan Couch is sent back to the United States. 5. How old was Ethan Couch when the drunk-driving accident happened? 6. Why was Tonya Couch charged by the U.S. officials? 7. Where were Tonya and Ethan arres
27、ted by the U.S. officials? 5 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 根据选项可以判断问的是年龄，而且四个选项的年龄相对较小，题目可能跟青少年有关。听音时留意新闻中的相关信息。题目问酒驾事故发生时Ethan Couch的年龄。录音开头提到 Ethan(即儿子 )与两年前一宗酒驾碰撞事件相关。接着说到 “该事件发生时，他才 16岁 ”(That crash happenedwhen Couch was 16 years old)，故 C项为答案。 A项利用 Ethan Couch的缓刑期年数 10年这个数字作干扰，并非他发生醉驾事故时的年纪。 6 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析
28、】 选项均以 Because开头，推断本题问原因。此外，根据 drunk driving、 illegally、 flee等词，推测问题应该跟 She做了什么不好的事有关。题目问 Tonya Couch为何被美国警方指控。关键要听清 Tonya Couch是谁，由录音开头提到的 mother ofa young man和 Tonya Couch and her son，可以判断出 Tonya Couch就是这位被美国警方指控的母亲。录音中后段提到这位母亲被控协助其儿子逃到墨西哥 (she is charged with to Mexico)， D项基本复现了录音原词help her son f
29、lee toMexico，为本题答案。 A项是利用录音中的 Mexico编造的信息，录音中只说她儿子逃去墨西哥，没说他是墨西哥籍。 B项 “她涉及一宗醉驾撞车 ”，但造成酒驾撞车的并不是 Tonya Couch，而是她儿子 Ethan Couch。 C项 “她非法偷渡去美国 ”未在新闻中提到。 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 选项均为表地点的介词短语，可知本题问地点。此外，几个选项之间十分相似，区别存于 east west coast和 U S Mexico，听音时要特别注意分辨跟这些关键词相关的信息。题目问 Tonya和 Ethan被拘捕的地点。新闻末尾的部分提到，这对母子周一在墨西哥西
30、海岸的 Puerto Vallarta被捕 (The mother and son were arrested on Mexicos west coast)，由此可知答案为 C项。 Section B 8 【听力原文】 M: Have you seen our holiday pictures? W: No, I havent. Id like to, though. M: Look. This is the train that took us there. Its fabulous. You could all sit up here and see out from the observ
31、ation window. W: Oh, have they got stairs in the train then? M: Oh, yes. Fully equipped. And heres the house we stayed in. One of those wooden built cottages. W: Yes, thats really pretty. And look at that fabulous car in front. M: Oh, what a car! Typical massive, American car. It was just lovely. W:
32、 Yes, it does look nice. M: And here we are on a fishing trip. W: Oh, yes. And that was a big fish, too. M: Well, thats Steve looking pretty pleased with himself. W: Mm. Did you catch anything? M: No, I was a disaster. But its really nice being out there. W: Looks nice. M: And then we went up to a c
33、amp on the lake. Dont you love the way the trees come down to the edge of the lake there? W: Looks really peaceful and lovely. Are you having a meal there? M: Yes. Thats us having one of our cook-ups. W: Mm, the tent looks a bit small. M: Well it was, but you dont spend much time in the tent, do you
34、? W: I suppose not. M: Here we are on the lake again. This was a canoeing trip. W: Yes, do you know how to paddle? M: Wasnt hard to learn at all. Picked it up very quickly. W: Well, what worried me was you were wearing those life-jackets. M: Yes, we all had to wear those silly life-jackets, but nobo
35、dy minded very much. It was really good fun. 8. Where did the man stay during his holiday? 9. Which of the following is true according to the conversation? 10. What do we know about the trees according to the man? 11. When did the tourists wear the life-jackets? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 听到 the house we sta
36、yed in之后，紧接着听到 wooden built cottages，信息可转换为 westayed in a wooden cottage。 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 整个对话是男士在给女士边看自己拍的照片，边介绍旅行的过程。开头第一 个回合的对话就有说明。男士说 “你看过我假期拍的照片吗 ?”女士说 “没有。 ”男士介绍说 “看 !这是 ” 。从女士的话语中 (如： really pretty， nice， lovely)可看出女士在称赞男士拍的照片，故选 D。对话中提到， Steve看起来很得意，所以 A错；男士提到过 disaster和 silly这两个词，但并不是用来评
37、价整个旅程，所以 B错；两个人并没有一起乘火车去旅游，只有男士去了，所以 C错。 10 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 男士说难道你不喜欢树垂到湖边的那种方式吗 ?从他的话中我们可得出 C，符 合长对话 “听到什么选什么 ”的原则。注意问题是问从男士的话中可得出什么，且女士回答男士时意思是整个树垂到湖边的画面很宁静可爱，不是指树宁静可爱，故可排除 B。 A和 D只是分别利用听力原词 trainwindow和 cottages进行干扰，与问题中的 trees不相关，可排除。 11 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项的动词都不相同，而且地点也有一定的区别，因此在听到选项的内容时，应把相关的信
38、息记录在选项旁边。男士说在湖上划独木舟(canoeing)时，还必须穿上救生衣。所以 B正确。其他选项的动作在对话 中也均有提及，但都跟穿救生衣无关，故排除。 12 【听力原文】 W: Dad, Dad, Dad! M: Uh, what, what, uh, uh!?!? W: The movie is over. You slept through the best part. M: Ah, ah, I must have dozed off during the last few minutes. W: Right You were gone for so long, you shoul
39、d have brought your pillow and blanket So, what did you think about it? M: Well, overall, Im a little disappointed with the movie. I mean, the story was a little strange, you have to admit. I mean, really. How believable is a plot about a captain who navigates his spaceship to the far reaches of the
40、 galaxy and encounters a race of frog people? I mean, come on. W: Ah, I thought it was fantastic. I mean, you have to admit that the special effects were awesome, and the acting wasnt bad either. M: Ah, come on. What about the ships communications officer? I mean, what did you think about him? Wasnt
41、 he a little strange to you? He was always talking to himself, and he had that funny hairdo. W: Well, he was a little. unusual but the ships doctor was amazing. It was so cool when he brought the captain back to life during one of the battles. M: That was pretty realistic, but then the rest of the m
42、ovie just went from bad to worse. And the photography was so fake! W: How do you know? You were snoring so loud the neighbors probably had to close their windows. 12. What is the fathers opinion about the movies storyline? 13. Which of the following statements is true? 14. Whose performance do the f
43、ather and daughter agree upon in the movie? 15. What seems to be the thing the father likes about the movie? 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 父亲几乎一直都在抱怨电影的不好，所以可以排除 C和 D这两个表达积极意义的选项，而父亲说过， “这个故事有点奇怪 ”，所以选 A“荒谬的 ”。此外，本题也可依据父亲的用词 (如 strange， Howbelievable， from bad to worse，fake等 )推断答案为 A。 13 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 细节辨认题。
44、由 spaceship， galaxy， a raceof frog people， special effects等标志词可推断出这是科幻电影，答案为 D。 A错在 father，应该是daughter，在对话中女儿评价说 “特技很棒，而且演技也不赖 ”，而父亲的反应是“Ah， come on (得了吧 !)”；在对话中，女儿说 “宇宙飞船的医生很了不起 ”， B与之意思相反；根据女儿所说的 “你的鼾声那么响，邻居们很可能得关上窗户。 ”可知是在家里，故 C错。 14 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 父女俩只对那个医生有一致的评价，女儿说 “宇宙飞船的医生很了不起 ” 之后，父亲肯定她的说法
45、： “非常逼真 ”， 所以选 C。其余三项均未有明确的统一意见。 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 父亲认为摄影很假，通讯官有点奇怪，故事情节也不可信，所以只有 C是正确的。在对话中，父亲除了对医生的评价是 “That was pretty realistic”，对其他的评价几乎都是含否定意味的。也可由此得出答案是 C。 Section C 16 【听力原文】 Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would rather
46、 eat sweets and ice cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite. It is important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that
47、our bodies need food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. When we are worried, we may not want to eat, either. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it was a
48、 sign that he wasnt telling the truth. He was telling a lie. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed an excellent way of finding out the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry. Because when he is worrying, he loses his appetit
49、e and does not want to eat. 16. Which of the following may take away our appetite before we have our meal? 17. When had we better have our meals? 18. How could the judges in old England tell that a man had told a tie? 16 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 四个选项均是食物，在听音的过程中若听到了选项中的词，则要在选项旁稍做记录。文章主要讲的是饮食习惯与健康的问题。文中提到，饭前吃sweets and ice cream会影响胃口， D将其中的 sweets换成了同义词 candy。故选D。 A在文中提到了，但与本题的提问无关，故排除； B中的 butter和 C在文中均未提及。本题也可从另一种角度来解答：根据生活常识， A、 B、 C都有可能是正餐的内容；只有 D属于零食范畴，若在饭前食用容易影响胃口。故可判断 D正确。 17 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 四个选项描述的都是时间。文中提到，每天在同一时间吃饭很重要。选项 B中的 at regular in
