24. Why is the woman interested in working with Professor Smith?
【解析】B女士為什么會(huì)對(duì)與史密斯教授合作非常感興趣呢,從她的話(huà)中我們可以看出結(jié)論。Im sure well get something though, probably not much. Anyway it doesnt matter to me. I just want to have some handson experience. 對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō),是否付我錢(qián)都不重要,我只想要些實(shí)踐的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。由此可見(jiàn),正確答案是:She wants to get practical experience.

【解析】C從文中多處對(duì)話(huà)可看出答案,如itll be nice to help the high school students, too.說(shuō)話(huà)人所做的計(jì)劃可以幫助成績(jī)不太好的高中生找到適合自己的學(xué)習(xí)方式,從而達(dá)到幫助高中生們學(xué)習(xí)的目的。因此,答案是:Help them with their studies.
Section B
Passage One
Do you have a tough math test coming up? Then listen to some classical piano music just before the test. You might end up with a higher score. Researchers at a university in California conducted an experiment. They asked a group of college students to listen to some piano music by a famous 18th century composer before taking a math test. They were surprised to find that the students scores jumped 8 to 9 points. The music seems to excite nerve activity in the brain; similar to the activity that occurs when a person is figuring out a math problem. However, the scientists warn that before you get too excited about applying this method to your math test. You should remember that brain exciting effects last only 10 or 15 minutes. Would rock music work as well as the piano music did? No, the scientists say. In fact, the less complex music might even interfere with the brains reasoning ability.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What is this passage mainly about?
【解析】C根據(jù)文章的內(nèi)容,科學(xué)家們做的測(cè)試,在做數(shù)學(xué)題的時(shí)候放音樂(lè),成績(jī)普遍提高好幾分,我們可以推斷出這篇文章是講音樂(lè)對(duì)數(shù)學(xué)測(cè)驗(yàn)結(jié)果的影響,所以選C。
27. Why can classical music play a positive role in problem solving?
【解析】A科學(xué)家們說(shuō),搖滾音樂(lè)就不能像鋼琴曲那樣對(duì)成績(jī)有所幫助,只有那些不是特別復(fù)雜的音樂(lè)會(huì)對(duì)大腦的思維有影響,能夠刺激你的神經(jīng)活動(dòng)。所以選A。
28. What is one of the findings of the research?
【解析】B科學(xué)家們說(shuō),必須記住這種讓大腦興奮起來(lái)的效果只會(huì)維持10到15分鐘。不會(huì)持續(xù)太長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間,所以選B。
Passage Two
We use all sort of services without thinking how we get them. But such services cost money. We pay for them through taxes. What would happen if everyone in a city stopped paying taxes? The water supply would stop. The street might not be cleaned. There would be no police force to protect people and property.
The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property. More than threefourths of the money spent by our government is used for this purpose .The next largest amount of public money goes to teach and train our citizens. Billions of dollars each year are spent on schools and libraries. Public money is used to pay the teachers and other public officials.
Years ago the government made money from the sale of public lands. But most of the best public lands have now been sold. The money raised was used to help pay the cost of government. There are still some public lands that contain oil, coal, gas, and other natural products. They could be sold, but we want to save them for future years. So we all must pay our share for the services that make our lives comfortable.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. Whats the chief duty of every government?
【解析】A文章第二段第一句話(huà)就說(shuō)每個(gè)政府的主要職能就是保護(hù)人民和財(cái)產(chǎn)安全。The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property. 所以A是符合原文的。
30. How did the government raise money in the past?
【解析】C文章第三段,很多年以前,政府都是通過(guò)賣(mài)掉公有土地來(lái)獲得錢(qián)的,Years ago the government made money from the sale of public lands. 所以選C。
31. What is the passage mainly about?
【解析】B這篇文章主要是講公共稅收和公共服務(wù),講政府收入的獲得和用處,稅收、政府收入取之于民,用之于民,所以選B。
Passage Three
The key question for any only child is this: why were you an only child? Its a key question for at least two reasons. If your parents had wanted several children but could have you only, they are most likely to pour into you all the energy and attention that had been intended for several children. I call this the “special jewel” phenomenon. Only children who are special jewels often arrive when their parents are older—usually in their thirties. These special jewels can become very spoiled and selfcentered.
On the other hand, you may be an only child because your parents planned for only one and stuck to their plan. Your parents may give you a very strict and wellstructured education to make you “a little adult”. Many only children grow up feeling unhappy because they always had to be such “l(fā)ittle adults”.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. Who are likely to treat their only children as “special jewels”?
【解析】B文章第一段的第三句話(huà),如果你的父母想要幾個(gè)孩子卻只能有你一個(gè),我就稱(chēng)這種為“special jewel”。所以選B。
