试题详解
11.A) The girls got on well with each other. | A) 女孩们相处得很好。 |
B) It's understandable that girls don't get along. | B) 女孩子们相处不好是可以理解的。 |
C) She was angry with the other young stars. | C) 她对其他的年轻明星非常生气。 |
D) The girls lacked the courage to fight. | D) 女孩们缺乏勇气去打架。 |
【解题核心】选项表明对话与女孩们之间的相处情况有关。D选项与其他三项内容明显不同，可初步排除。选项B、C意思相近，均表示女孩们相处得不太好，故二者均不大可能为答案。A选项则表示女孩们相处得非常好，与选项B、C同时相反，根据命题规律，同时与两个意思相近的选项相反的选项很可能为答案。因此可初步推测本题答案为A。听音时重点留意女孩们相处得如何（"好"还是"不好"）。
【正确项分析】从对话中女士连续说的两个great可推知她和那些年轻明星相处愉快。注意对话中的"didn't get along"是别人说的，并且女士对此非常气愤。A选项中"get on (along) with sb."为"与......和睦相处"，与原文中的"没有打架，过得很开心"相符。
【原文及译文】
M: What was it like working with those young stars?
W: It was a great group. I always got mad when people said that we didn't get along, just because we're girls. There was never a fight. We had a great time.
Q: What does the woman mean?
男士：你和那些年轻的明星一起工作感觉怎样？
女士：那是一个非常棒的团队。令我一直恼火的是，因为我们都是女孩，人们就说我们相处不和睦。我们从来没有打过架，并且度过了一段美好的时光。
问题：该女士是什么意思？
【核心词汇】
get mad ①恼火 ②发脾气；
get along ①相处，(与......)和睦相处 ②进展，进步 ③带走，拿走
12.A) The woman does her own housework. | A) 女士自己做家务。 |
B) The woman needs a housekeeper. | B) 女士需要一名清洁工。 |
C) The woman's house is in a mess. | C) 女士的房子一团糟。 |
D) The woman works as a housekeeper. | D) 女士是一名清洁工。 |
【解题核心】本题关键是对否定疑问句"don't have a housekeeper"的回答"No, we don't."的理解， 意为"是的，我们不用清洁工"。听音时应留意以下选项要点：woman--自己做housework；需要housekeeper。make a mess意为"弄脏，弄乱"。
【正确项分析】听力原文中的"you clean up yourself"是指谁弄乱了谁整理，所以与对话中的"女士没有请清洁工"意义相符，故选项A正确。
【原文及译文】
M: Are you telling me you don't have a housekeeper?
W: No, we don't. If you make a mess, you clean up yourself.
Q: What do we learn from this conversation?
男士：你的意思是你没有管家吗？
女士：是的，我们没有。如果你弄乱了，请自己整理。
问题：从这段对话中可以得知什么？
【核心词汇】
in a mess 一团糟；
make a mess 搞成一团糟
13. A) The Edwards are quite well-off. | A) 爱德华一家十分富裕。 |
B) The Edwards should cut down on their living expenses. | B) 爱德华一家应该缩减生活开支。 |
C) It'll be unwise for the Edwards to buy another house. | C) 爱德华一家再买一栋房子是不明智的。 |
D) It's too expensive for the Edwards to live in their present house. | D) 对于爱德华一家来说，住在现在的房子里太贵了。 |
【解题核心】由选项中should, unwise等词可推测问题应该涉及到看法或建议。选项中living expenses和buy another house表明对话应与the Edwards的生活开支和购房计划有关。A与其他三项内容明显不同，可初步排除。听音时应重点留意以下两点：cut down expenses和unwise to buy house。
【正确项分析】女士提出话题后，男士用"Should they be doing that..."表示不赞成，然后进一步解释了原因：其他支出、七十岁高龄、现在房子不差。综合上述因素，C为正确选项。
【干扰项分析】选项A所说的爱德华一家很富裕，原文中并未提及。选项B中的"缩减开支"在原文中也未提及。D项更是偏离主题。
【原文及译文】
W: I hear that the Edwards are thinking of buying another house.
M: Should they be doing that with all the other expenses they have to pay? Anyhow, they are over 70 now, and their present house is not too bad.
Q: What does the man imply?
女士：我听说爱德华一家正打算再买一栋房子。
男士：难道他们要花费所有用于其他必要支出的钱来买房子吗？不管怎么说，他们现在已经七十了，并且他们现在的房子也不差啊。
问题：男士所说的话暗指什么？
【核心词汇】
well-off a. ①手头宽裕的 ②顺利的 ③走运的；
cut down on ①减少 ②削减；
living expense 生活费用
14. A) The woman didn't expect it to be so warm at noon. | A) 女士没有料到中午会很暖和。 |
B) The woman is sensitive to weather changes. | B) 女士对于天气变化很敏感。 |
C) The weather forecast was unreliable. | C) 天气预报不可信。 |
D) The weather turned cold all of a sudden. | D) 天气突然变冷。 |
【解题核心】选项表明对话与天气变化和女士的反应有关。C选项与其他选项内容明显不同，可初步排除。A和D意思相反，故很可能有一个为答案。因此听音时重点关注天气是突然"变冷"还是"变暖"，抓住女士回答中的关键词didn't expect，the weather和change quickly。
【正确项分析】女士明确说明"中午很暖和，没有想到天气变化如此快"， 抓住男士话中的freezing to death（冷得要命）这与选项D"天气突然变冷"为同义表达。
【干扰项分析】选项A为原文中个别词的拼凑。选项B中的sensitive是主观臆断，原对话中并没有涉及。选项C的"weather report"更是无中生有。
【原文及译文】
M: You look like you are freezing to death. Why don't you put this on?
W: Thank you. It was so warm at noon. I didn't expect the weather to change so quickly.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
男士：看起来你快冻死了。为什么不穿上这个呢？
女士：谢谢。中午那么暖和，我没料到天气会变化得如此快。
问题：从这段对话可得知什么？
【核心词汇】sensitive a. ①敏感的 ②神经过敏的 ③易受伤害的 n. 敏感的人；reliable a. ①可靠的 ②可信赖的
15.A) At a clinic. | A) 诊所。 |
B) In a supermarket. | B) 超市。 |
C) At a restaurant. | C) 餐厅。 |
D) In an ice cream shop. | D) 冰激凌店。 |
【解题核心】本题是地点猜测题，重点在于抓住有代表性的词汇，根据其确立的语境，即可获得答案。一般这类题目的信息词都不只一个，因此切忌听到只言片语就妄下结论。
【正确项分析】由"牛排、炸薯条、甜点"可立即推想对话发生在餐厅。后面的"不如点一些蔬菜水果吧"，更加确认应选C项。
【原文及译文】
M: I'll have the steak, French fries, and let's see, chocolate ice cream for dissert.
W: Oh, oh, you know these things will ruin your health, too much fat and sugar. How about ordering some vegetables and fruit instead?
Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?
男士：我点牛排和炸薯条，甜点是巧克力冰激凌。
女士：喂喂，这些东西含有过多脂肪和糖，对身体健康有害。不如点一些蔬菜水果吧？
问题：这段对话很可能发生在哪儿？
【核心词汇】order v. ①点(菜、饮料等) ②预定n. ①订单 ②命令
16. A) The woman did not feel any danger growing up in the Bronx. | A) 女士在布朗克斯长大，并没有觉得不安全。 |
B) The man thinks it was quite safe living in the Bronx district. | B) 男士认为住在布朗克斯十分安全。 |
C) The woman started working at an early age to support her family. | C) 女士很小就开始工作养家糊口。 |
D) The man doesn't think it safe to send an 8-year-old to buy things. | D) 男士认为让一个八岁小女孩去买东西很不安全。 |
【解题核心】选项表明对话与在Bronx区成长或生活的安全状况有关。由选项中feel, think等词可推测问题与某人的看法或感受有关。C选项与其他选项内容明显不同，故可初步排除。选项要点为：woman－no danger；man－safe/ not safe。故听音时重点应留意男士或女士是觉得Bronx区是"安全"还是"不安全"。
【正确项分析】话题是男士问女士在布朗克斯区生活是否安全，女士的回答是肯定的，所以选项A正确。
【干扰项分析】男士并没有对居住在布朗克斯区发表任何看法，故选项B、D均为错误选项。 女士只提到大概八岁时她就去商店买东西，而不是选项C所说的很小就开始养家糊口。
【原文及译文】
M: What was it like growing up in New York's Bronx District? Was it safe?
W: To me it was. It was all I knew. My mom would send me to the shop and I'd go and buy things when I was about 8 years old.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
男士：在纽约的布朗克斯区（纽约最北端的一个区）长大感觉怎么样？那里安全吗？
女士：对我来说，是安全的。据我了解，也是安全的。我母亲以前常常让我去商店，我在大约八岁的时候就去商店买东西了。
问题：从这段对话中可得知什么？

17. A) The man has never seen the woman before. | A) 男士在此之前从来没有见过女士。 |
B) The two speakers work for the same company. | B) 两人供职于同一家公司。 |
C) The two speakers work on the same floor. | C) 两人在同一楼层工作。 |
D) The woman is interested in market research. | D) 女士对市场调查感兴趣。 |
【解题核心】选项表明对话双方很可能是在同一家公司或同一个楼层上班。D选项与其他三项内容明显不同，可初步排除。听音时应主要留意以下要点：对话双方是在"同一公司"上班还是在"同一楼层"上班；男士以前是否见过女士。
【正确项分析】男士在市场调查部工作，女士在广告部工作，而且男士还在办公室周围见过女士，所以答案应该为选项B。
【干扰项分析】选项A与原文的"I've seen you around the office."不符。女士说自己在九楼上班，说明两人不在同一楼层，因为如在同一楼层，女士就没有必要说了，故选项C错误。选项D用"market research"进行干扰，与原文不符。
【原文及译文】
M: Nice weather, isn't it? Oh, I've seen you around the office, but I don't think we've met. I am Henry Smith. I work in the Market Research Section.
W: Nice to meet you, Henry. I am Helen Grant. I am in the Advertising Section on the ninth floor.
Q: What can we infer from the conversation?
男士：天气不错！哦，我在办公室附近见过你，但我们好像不认识。我是亨利·史密斯，在市场调查部工作。
女士：很高兴见到你，亨利。我是海伦·格兰特，我在九楼广告部工作。
问题：可从此对话中推断出什么？

C) The man has missed his appointment. | C) 男士错过了约会。 |
D) The woman is going to take a train trip. | D) 女士将乘火车去旅游。 |
【解题核心】选项中noise, look for an apartment和appointment表明对话很可能与找公寓或看房子有关。D选项与其他三项没有关联，可初步排除。听音时应重点留意以下要点：woman－can't tolerate noise；man－looking for apartment, miss appointment。A选项表示找公寓的是女士，B选项则表示找工作的是男士，二者中很有可能有一个为答案，因此听音时应重点辨别找公寓的是"男士"还是"女士"。
【正确项分析】男士听说女士有房子出租，问可否让他看一下，可推测他是在找房子，所以选项B正确。
【原文及译文】
M: Ma'am, I hear you have an apartment for rent. Can I take a look at it?
W: Sure, you're welcome any time by appointment, but I have to tell you the building is close to a railway. And if you can't put up with the noise you might as well save the trip.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
