18、ty for millions of Americans to engage in and understand African American history. 1. What are Americans encouraged to do in Black History Month? 2. What is the plan of the Smithsonian Institution? 1 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 新闻中提到,二月是黑人历史月,鼓励美国人去了解以及感恩非裔美国人对美国社会做出的众多贡献,故 B正确。 A“学习美国历史 ”、 C“参观著名的国家博物馆和纪念碑 ”和

19、D“捐款建造一座新的博物馆 ”都不是黑人历史月鼓励美国人去做的事。 【知识模块】 听力 2 【正 确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻中提到, Smithsonian Institution宣布要建一个 “非裔美国人历史与文化国家博物馆 ”(National Museum of African American History and Culture )。故答案为 D“建造新博物馆 ”。 A利用新闻中的 join和 museum制造干扰,但 “博物馆协会 ”没有在新闻中出现。新闻中提到建造博物馆之前,要先选定建筑师 (architect must be chosen)、征集收藏品 (collect

20、ion must be assembled)和募捐建造博物馆的费用 (half price tag must be provided from private donors),B、 C项胡乱拼凑了这些信息点,并不是 Smithsonian Institution真正要做的事。 【知识模块】 听力 3 【听力原文】 When the tsunami hit southern Thailand last year hundreds of Burmese migrants working in beach front hotels were among the victims. Thai offic

21、ials have identified 80 Burmese migrant workers among the dead. But they believe several of the more than 800 unidentified bodies are likely to be Burmese.

24、他们的工作没了,家和财产也被海啸冲走了,并且他们也得不到政府的援助 (unable to get government aid)。故 D正确,并同时可以排 除 B“他们忽视政府的援助 ”。 A“他们被包工头雇用了 ”和新闻说的 “他们工作没了 ”(their jobswere gone) 相反。 C所说的 “引起对移民问题的关注 ”是泰国劳工活跃分子 Adisorn Kurdmongkol的呼吁,与海啸幸存者无关。 【知识模块】 听力 5 【听力原文】 The Paris agreement to curb climate change calls for a dramatic shift a

25、way from fossil fuels and the greenhouse gasses they emit, especially carbon dioxide. Switching to renewable energy helps, but that wont happen fast enough to keep temperatures from rising to dangerous levels. Thats why scientists and researchers all over the world also are working on new ways of ke

26、eping carbon out of the atmosphere. At an industrial site in Alberta, a province in North America, Royal Dutch Shell, an oil company, recently hosted a grand opening for its Quest carbon capture and storage project. Its part of Shells oil sands business. Turning oil sands into crude oil emits a lot

27、of carbon dioxide. So Shell tries to capture some of that greenhouse gas before it gets into the air.

28、oney, it captures only a third of the C02 thats produced here. For many companies, such a plant isnt an attractive investment because its not profitable. 5. Whats the purpose of Paris agreement? 6. What is the content of Shells Quest project? 7. Why doesnt Quests plant attract to many companies? 5 【

29、正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 新闻开头提到,巴黎协定 (Paris agreement)呼吁减少对化石燃料的使用及其排放的温室气体,尤其是二氧化碳,其目的是控制气候变化 (to curb climate change)。 D中的 control the change of climate和新闻中的 curb climate change含义相同,为本题答案。 A是利用新闻末尾的 profitable编造的信息,新闻中说该工厂不盈利所以没有投资吸引力, A与新闻内容相反。 B“在全球范围内获得名声 ”未在新闻中提到 。 C中的 temperature有在新闻中出现,但是新闻中说新能源并不能有效抑

30、制气温升到危险水平,并未提及气温应控制在什么水平。 【知识模块】 听力 6 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻提到, Royal Dutch Shell是北美的一家石油公司,接着又说它举行了一个盛大的开幕式,进行捕获和储存碳的项目 (Quest carbon capture and storage project),故 C为答案。新闻中多次提到 sand和 oil,但并未提及其运输情况 (transportation),故排除 A。该项目并非 B所说的 “停止排放二氧化碳 ”,而是要对其进行储存以防止其进入空气中,故排除 B。 D是利用对 Shell公司是石油公司进行干扰,新闻并没有提及要开

31、发更多石油。 【知识模块】 听力 7 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 新闻末尾部分提到, Quest project成本非常高,却只能捕获其产生的二氧化碳总量的三分之一,最后又说不能吸引投资是因为不能盈利 (not profitable),由此可知答案为 C。 A“需要政府支持 ”没有在新闻中提到。 B中的technology出现在新闻中后段,说该技术 已存在一段时间,但成本仍然极高,可见该技术并非难以取得,只是价格昂贵。 D干扰性强,该技术确实需要大量资金,但是不具备盈利能力才是无法吸引公司投资的真正原因。 【知识模块】 听力 Section B 8 【听力原文】 W: What sort

32、of hours do you work, Steve? M: Well, I have to work very long hours, about 11 hours a day. W: What time do you start? M: I work 9 to 3. Then I start again at 5:30 and work until 11.

36、 What does the man say about his job? 9. What does the man think is the hardest part of his job? 10. Where did the man get his first job after graduation? 11. What does the man say is important to being good at his job? 8 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 对话一开始男士就回答说他要工作很长时间,每天 11个小时,每周 6天。因此答案为 B。 A“使他能交到很多朋友 ”、 C“使

37、他得以将理论应用于实践 ”和 D“帮助他更好地理解人们 ”录音未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 9 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 女士问这份工作比较困难的是什么 ?男士回答说要一直站着,结合工作时间长,可判断出这份工作需要耐力和耐心。因此答案为 D。 A“在智力上有挑战 ”和 C“整天接触油烟 ”无原文依据;男士在前面曾说到 “不需要洗餐具 ”,因此B错误。 【知识模块】 听力 10 【正确答案】 D 【试题解析】 男士说给 6个宾馆写了信,其中一个给了他第一份工作。因此答案为 D。 A“医院 ”、 B“咖啡店 ”和 C“干洗店 ”均与男士所述不符。 【知识模块】 听力 11 【正确答案】 B

38、【试题解析】 对话中男士说做好工作的秘诀是关注细节、热爱工作、有激情。 B属于其中之一,故为答案。 A“与同事好好相处 ”、 C“提前计划好所有事情 ”和D“知道顾客的需求 ”均属随意捏造,原文无相关信息支持。 【知识模块】 听力 12 【听力原文】 W: Now youve seen this table of figures about the pocket money children in Britain get? M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I dont quite understand the column ent

39、itled “Change“. Can you explain what it means? W: Well, I think it means the change from the year before. I am not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 72p to 90p is a rise of 25 percent M: Oh, yes. I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison. W: Yes. Why do you think the rise in po

40、cket money is often higher than inflation? M: I am sorry Ive no idea Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous. W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were not better off in 2001 than they were in 2002. Thats strange, isnt it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are n

41、ow. I wonder why that is. M: Yes. I dont understand that at all. W: Anyway, if you had children, how much pocket money would you give them? M: I dont know. I think Ill probably give them 2 pounds a week. W: Would you? And what would you expect them to do with it? M: Well, out of that, theyd have to

42、buy some small personal things, but I wouldnt expect them to save to buy their own socks, for example. W: Yes. By the way, do most children in your country get pocket money? M: Yeah, they do. 12. What is the table of figures about? 13. What do we learn from the conversation about British childrens p

43、ocket money? 14. Why does the man think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation? 15. Supposing the man had children, what would he expect them to do with their pocket money? 12 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 对话开头就提到这个数据表是关于英国儿童的零花钱的。因此答案为 A。 pocket money为原文高频词组,由此也可以推测本对话的主题,可依据主题答题。 B“英国的年通货膨胀率 ”、

44、 C“英国孩子花钱购买的物品 ”及 D“在英国养育孩 子上涨的成本 ”均与录音所述不符。 【知识模块】 听力 13 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 对话中女士问过男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高于通货膨胀。因此答案为 C。对话中提到词组 better off, A的 live better为干扰项; B“在经济不景气时下降 ”原文未提及; D中的 25尽管在原文中提到过,但 past decade“过去十年 ”未提及。 【知识模块】 听力 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 对话中女士问男士如何看待零用钱的上升常常高于通货膨胀,男士回答原因可能是英 国的父母过于慷慨 (Perhaps pare

45、nts in Britain are too generous)。 A是对此的原词复现,故为答案。 B“英国的父母挣钱更多了 ”和 C“英国的父母太爱孩子了 ”录音未提及; D“英国的父母希望孩子生活得更好 ”利用原词better off制造干扰,但与男士所给原因不符。 【知识模块】 听力 15 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 当女士问男士期望孩子们用零花钱干什么的时候,他回答说他们可以用这些钱买点小的私人物品。因此答案为 B。 A“为将来的学业存起来 ”和 D“必要的时 候捐款 ”原文未提及; C“给他们自己买鞋和袜子 ”为强干扰项,这实际上与原文说的 “不指望他们存钱给自己买袜子 ”相悖。

47、an had the nerve to instruct Japanese in their own art form? Were they deliberately trying to signal their rejection of her? Opp-Kemp later found out that her listeners were not being disrespectful. Japanese listeners sometimes close their eyes to enhance concentration. Her listeners were showing th

Learning how different cultures signal respect can help you avoid misunderstandings. Here are some exam

49、ples. In the Deaf culture of North America, many listeners show applause not by clapping their hands but by waving them in the air. In some cultures, both overseas and in some minority groups in North America, listeners are considered disrespectful if they look directly at the speaker.
