12. W: Do you think Edward will get here on time for the job interview?
M: If he doesn't, nobody will.
Q: What does the man mean?
【解析】選[A]。這道題關(guān)鍵在于聽(tīng)懂男士的回答。女士問(wèn)他Edward能否準(zhǔn)時(shí)參加面試,男士并未直接回答,而是說(shuō):如果他不能的話,那么就沒(méi)有人能了,言外之意就是他肯定會(huì)準(zhǔn)時(shí)到達(dá)。
13. M: Hey, you should be doing your art class now. Why are you here?
W: I realized I've no talent for drawing. Dmp3a is a better alternative than those brushes.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】選[D]。女士的回答中,Dmp3a is a better alternative than those brushes是這個(gè)對(duì)話中的關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)。[D]項(xiàng)表明她已經(jīng)退出了藝術(shù)課,而選擇了戲劇課,故為答案。
14. W: Oh dear, I gained these 10 pounds in the last 3 months, none of my clothes fit any more.
M: I wouldn't complain, you look much better. In fact, you can gain another 5 pounds and still look good.
Q: What does the man mean?
【解析】選[C]。每每女士為自己的體重大驚小怪時(shí),男士常會(huì)給予一定的安慰和勸說(shuō)。對(duì)話中男士說(shuō)you look much better. In fact, you can gain another 5 pounds and still look good表明,男士勸女士不應(yīng)為其體重?fù)?dān)心。
15. M: I'd like to buy these four greeting cards. Are they ten yuan each?
W: Three of them are. But that smaller one costs only half the price of the big ones.
Q: How much will the man pay for the cards?
【解析】選[C]。這是一道綜合性的計(jì)算題,但并不復(fù)雜,只要聽(tīng)到Three of them are (ten yuan each)"其中三個(gè)是每個(gè)十元"及that smaller one costs half the price of the bigger ones"小卡片的價(jià)錢(qián)是大卡片的一半",確定應(yīng)選[C]。
16. W: I know you're busy, but how about attending a film festival tonight? Your favorite star will make an appearance.
M: You think I'd give that a miss?
Q: What does the man mean?
【解析】選[A]。女士對(duì)男士說(shuō)我知道你很忙,但今晚你愿意參加一個(gè)電影節(jié)嗎,你最喜歡的明星會(huì)露面。男士反問(wèn)道,你認(rèn)為我會(huì)放棄這個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)嗎?實(shí)際上暗示了他肯定會(huì)去的,這和選項(xiàng) [A]吻合。男士的回答中,You think I'd give that a miss?是這個(gè)對(duì)話的關(guān)鍵點(diǎn)。
17. W: Would you mind sending champagne and strawberries to my room at 1 a.m. please?
M: I'll try, ma'am. But on Wednesday the kitchen staff leave at mid-night.
Q: Where does the conversation probably take place?
【解析】選[D]。champagne and strawberry、sending … to my room、kitchen staff構(gòu)成了一個(gè)"在賓館談?wù)撍筒?的特定場(chǎng)景。
18. W: You were on the phone for a long time. To whom were you talking?
M: Oh, to Susan. She always knows the latest news in town and she couldn't wait to see me to talk it over.
Q: What can we learn from the conversation?
【解析】選[B]。對(duì)話中男士不僅回答了女士的問(wèn)題,還進(jìn)一步提到Susan急于告知他鎮(zhèn)上的最新消息。選項(xiàng)[B] eager to pass the infomp3ation she knows就是對(duì)話中couldn't wait to see me to talk it over的同義轉(zhuǎn)述can't wait to do sth.意為"急切地想要做某事"。
Conversation One
W: Can I help you?
M: Yes, I'd like to read some articles that are on reserve about British culture.
W: Professor Grand's class?
M: That's right. How could you know?
W: Let's just say you are not the first person coming in asking for those articles.
M: Oh, well, seeing as how I haven't read any of them yet, it doesn't really matterwhich one you give me first.
W: I'm afraid I can't give you any of them at the moment. They've all been checked out.
M: You're joking, all of them?
W: Every month. I've asked professor Grand twice already to bring in additional copies of the articles, but no sooner do I place them on the shelves than they are gone. See that girl in the black sweater? She's been waiting for half an hour for those same articles to be returned.
M: And here's me. I went out of my way to free out the whole afternoon to read.
W: I'm sorry, but there is not a whole lot I can do about it. All I can suggest is that you come in first thing tomorrow morning and try again. We open at eight.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What is the man surprised to learn?
【解析】選[C]。男士來(lái)借閱論文,被告知論文都被借走(been checked out)了,不由得說(shuō),You are joking, all of them?其中,You are joking表示不相信、驚訝之情(surprised)。同義的表達(dá)有Are you kidding?
20. What does the woman say about Professor Grand?
【解析】選[D]。根據(jù)選項(xiàng)無(wú)法判斷問(wèn)題是什么的時(shí)候,更需要我們注意聽(tīng)問(wèn)題。 題目問(wèn)Professor Grand的情況,圖書(shū)管理員說(shuō)她已經(jīng)兩次請(qǐng)Professor Grand拿來(lái)多份論文,但總是很快就被借走了。其他選項(xiàng)在對(duì)話中都找不到依據(jù)。
21. What does the woman suggest that the man do?
【解析】選[A]。對(duì)話的最后部分女士建議男士明天一早就過(guò)來(lái)(come in first thing tomorrow morning),并告訴他開(kāi)館時(shí)間為8點(diǎn)。
