17、other places. I was the baseball coach at Ridgemont High School last season. EMPLOYER: I see. And do you have any other experience that you would like us to note on your application?

24、. Well, thanks for your time, and well look forward to seeing you on the 12th. 1 【正确答案】 Elsinore 【试题解析】 Elsinore本题需填写一个不常见的建筑名称，录音中给出了拼写。注意首字母大写。 2 【正确答案】 7.78962e+007 【试题解析】 077896245本题需填写电话号码。注意 0的读法，可读作字母 O或者数字 Zero。另外，两个数字连着出现时，其读法一般是 double加该数字。 3 【正确答案】 waiter 【试题解析】 waiter本题需填写求职者现在的兼职工作。录音中比
25、较明了，现在在兼职做 waiter(服务生 )。 4 【正确答案】 baseball coach 【试题解析】 baseball coach本题题干中的 “Ridgemont High School”这个专有名词可帮助我们定位， “coach”一词可表示 “长途巴士 ”，不过在这里意为 “教练 ”。 5 【正确答案】 rescue diver 【试题解析】 rescue diver本题需填写该求职者的其他工作经历，即 rescue diver(救援潜水员 )。 6 【正确答案】 diving experience 【试题解析】 diving experience本题题干中的 “CPR”是定位词
26、，专有名词一定会原封不动再次出现于录音中，通常题目的答案就位于该定位词的附近。 7 【正确答案】 October 【试题解析】 October本题需填写日期，即 CPR证书过期日期。注意第一时间出现的 November是陷阱，此外， “actually”是信号词，接在其后的通常是正确答案。 8 【正确答案】 Saturday mornings 【试题解析】 Saturday mornings本题需填写该求职者想在周几工作，录音里明确提出是每周六早上。 9 【正确答案】 6(oclock) 【试题解析】 6(oclock)本题需填写时间，相对简单，答案直接明了。 10 【正确答案】 radio
27、【试题解析】 radio本题需填写该求职者知道这则工作招聘的信息来源。根据录音材料：是在早上开车收听广播时听到的。注意后面的 newspaper陷阱信息：大多数人获得招聘信息是源于看报纸，但该求职者是通过 radio ads获知的。 10 【听力原文】 GEOFFREY: Good evening, Im Geoffrey Miller, from the University of Nottingham Student Union.

Also, I would like to thank the student union here at the university for organising this lecture. Well, I have been serving and protecting the city of Nottingham for over 20 years now as a m
29、ember of the police department. Does anyone know what type of crime is the most prevalent on campus? I heard someone say drugs and alcohol - that actually isnt too much of an issue. Violence? Nope. Actually, the biggest thing we worry about here is theft. The nature of crime on Nottinghams campus is
30、 quite different from that of the surrounding areas. Crime rates across the East Midlands are very difficult to control. We would like to see the rate stay the same for this calendar year, but it has been increasing steadily over the past three years. On campus, however, Im happy to say that the ove
31、rall crime rate has fallen mis year. You wouldnt think so if you have seen the extremely exaggerated stories in the media. The media has done nothing but cause more concern about crime in our area. Even the crime shows you see today are a little bit farfetched, but at least viewers know they are not
32、 real events. We would really like to see more factual news articles out there so the public can have a rational sense of the safety level of our society. OK, lets move on to what to do when you see a crimeDo not get involved if at all possible, and do not draw too much attention to yourself by runn
33、ing away in a conspicuous manner. Though most likely(and hopefully)you will not have to experience this situation, if you are being mugged please do not try to resist. Instead, be compliant and seek help after the incident. Like I said, though, it is highly unlikely that you will find yourself amids
34、t a crime, but it is important to be prepared should it ever happen. We find that educating students and staff on the correct precautions to take is the best way to increase your safety. Just remember to be smart when youre out late at night, and avoid any area or person that looks suspicious. I kno
35、w it sounds obvious, but I cannot stress this enough. It is also not a bad idea to have your mobile phone with you at all times, but be careful. If you are chatting on your smart phone on your way home, you are a prime target for thieves. Id like to see a show of hands - how many people have left wo
36、rk or the library after 10 p.m. to go home before? A lot of you, right? If you do have to go home late at night, please dont walk home alone. More often than not there is someone there that will be walking the same direction as you at some point. Walk home with a friend or coworker. Even if you must
37、 use your phone to call someone that is nearby to walk with you, it is always safer to walk home with someone. So when youre walking home, you may feel more comfortable with some sort of self-defense, such as pepper spray. Now, its your call whether you want to carry something like this or not. Howe
38、ver, I absolutely advise against carrying a knife or any other offensive weapon. All too often they can be used against you if you are disarmed, putting yourself in more danger. For all those interested, the recreation centre offers a free self-defense class to all students every Thursday evening. W
39、hile obviously an introductory self-defense class may not equip you to fight off villains like a regular superhero, it does come in handy sometimes. After taking a self-defense class, you will surely be more aware of possible dangers and how to deal with them. So hopefully now you have a more comple
40、te understanding of the nature of crimes committed on your campus, and how to avoid being a victim. I know most students at the University of Nottingham are not the criminal types, but remember that there is no barrier like a wall or something keeping non-students out. There is no army force securin
41、g the borders, and I doubt anyone wants it that way. The campus is generally a safe place, but it is not immune to small crimes once in a while. Alright. Thats all I have to say for today.

42、题解析】 C本题注意先提到的陷阱选项 A和 B，录音中都予以否定。Actually是信号词，其后的信息通常是正确答案。 13 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 B本题注意题干中的限定条件 “campus”以及 “this year”。录音中出现： We would like to seethe rateover the past three years ，故 A和 C均为陷阱选项；正确选项 B decreased对应录音原 “has fallen”。 14 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 A本题需选择对犯罪变得更为担心的原因。错误选项 B是录音材料根本没有提到的，坚决不选。陷阱选项 C在录音中是
43、说 “人们希望看到更多关于真实性犯罪的新闻报道 ”，只是在陈述录音中所提到的一个事实，并非对本题题干的回答。 15 【正确答案】 C 【试题解析】 C本题陷阱选项 A和 B在录音里都是以否定的形式出现的，犯罪现 场当下正确的做法是 Cseek help(寻求帮助 )。 16 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 A本题题干中的 “primary method for increasing safety”对应录音里的 “best way to increasesafety”，很明显，正确答案为 A。 17 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 B本题按照选择题的常识原则，排除选项 A。录音材料也提到了陷阱
44、C选项中的 mobilephone，是说 “用手机打电话给朋友寻求陪同回家 ”。 18 【正确答案】 B 【试题解 析】 B本题选项 A录音中根本没有提到，坚决不选。选项 C中的“pepper spray”在录音中提到是可以携带用来护身的，故不选。录音中 “advise against carrying a knife”及 “puttingyourself in more danger”对应含义为 “dangerous to carry a knife”，所以正确选项为 B。 19 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 A本题题干中的 “self-defense course”是定位词，录音里 “b
45、e more aware of possible dangers”对应正确答案 A。选项 B和 C根本没有提到，坚决不选。 20 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 A本题录音中 “no barrier like a wall”对应正确答案 A。此外，录音中提到 “no army force”，所以选项 B不对；同时录音提到 “generally a safe place”，可以看出选项 C说法太过绝对。 20 【听力原文】 TUTOR: Hi Bobby, go ahead and sit down. Tell me about your research project. BOBBY: Wel
