Section A
11.
M: Shawn's been trying for months to
find a job. But I wonder how he could get a job
when he looks like that.
W: Oh, that
poor guy! He really should shave himself every
other day at least and put
on something
clean.
Q: What do we learn about
Shawn?
答案：
A. He is careless about
his appearance.
解析：
男生首先对肖恩能否找到工作表示怀疑，
因为他邋遢。
女生接着提到肖恩不修边
幅，又说他应该
每隔一天刮一次胡子，把自己弄得整洁干净一点。
由此可知，肖恩是一个对
仪容仪表不太注重，比较粗线条的人
shave
，刮
胡子；
be careless
about
不在乎，不介意；
12.
W: I wish Jane would call
when she know she'll be late. This is not the
first time we've
had to wait for
her.
M: I agree. But she does have to drive
through very heavy traffic to get here.
Q: What does
the man imply?
答案：
A. Jane maybe caught in a
traffic jam.
解析：本题是推理题，在做题时要注意仔细推敲。女生说：
“
Jane
已经不是第一次迟到
让我们等了，我
希望她能事先打电话告诉我们一下
”
，可见女生对
Jane
迟到的作法是不满
的。
男生又说：
“
I agree.
But she does have to drive through very heavy
traffic to get here.
”
（我同意。但是
她到这里的确要遭受很拥堵的交通。
）由此得出，男生对此事的态度是理解
或宽容的。
Jane
可能被堵在半路了。
13.
M:
Congratulations!
I
heard
your
baseball
team
is
going
to
the
Middle
Atlantic
Championship.
W: Yeah, we're all working
real hard right now!
Q: What is the woman's team
doing?
答案：
A. Training for the Mid-
Atlantic Championship.
解析：
对话开头男生提到女生所在的
棒球队要参加
Mid-Atlantic Championship.
女生说：
“
we're all working
real hard right now!
”
（我们现在正紧
锣密鼓地练习呢！
）由此可知，女生
所在的棒球队正在进行赛前
训练。
此题还有一个迷惑选项
B, Making
preparations for a trans-Atlantic trip,
必须注意的是：
这里并不是准备旅行，而是准备参赛。
14.
W:
John's
been
looking
after
his
mother
in
the
hospital.
She
was
injured
in
a
car
accident two weeks ago
and still in critical condition.
M: Oh, that's
terrible. And you know his father passed away last
year.
Q: What do we learn about
John?
答案：
D. He has been having a
hard time.
解析：根据听力原文可知，
“
John's
mother is in the hospital and his father died last
year.
”
（约翰的母亲出车祸住院
了，
父亲两年前也过世了）由此可见，
John
的近况还是蛮悲
惨的；答案也就显而易见了。
15.
M: What a
boring speaker! I can hardly stay
awake.
W: Well, I don't know. In fact, I think
it's been a long time since I've heard anyone is
good.
Q: What do we learn from
the conversation?
答案：
D The woman
thinks highly of the speaker
解析：根据听力原文可知，男生觉
得演讲无趣，女生却很淡定地说：
“
其实我已经很久
没有听到那么好的发言了
”
。由此可见，女生对发
言还是很肯定的。选项
D
中
“
thinks highly
of
”
即
“
对
…
评价高
”
，故
D
是正确答案。
16.
W: I'm having a lot of trouble with
logic and it seems my professor can't explain it
in a
way that makes sense to
me.
M: You know, there is a tutoring
service on campus. I was
about to
drop statistics
before they
helped me out.
Q: What does the man mean?
答案：
C. The woman should seek
help from tutoring services.
解析：首先女生说她逻辑学得很辛
苦，接受不了老师的讲课方式也理解不了课程内容。
而后男生说学校有辅导班，
他在参加
之前几乎要挂科了，
辅导班帮了他大忙。
言下之意
是推荐女生也去上辅导班。
17.
M: This is a stylish
overcoat. I saw you wearing it last week, did't
I?
W: Oh, that wasn't me. That was my
sister Jill. She's in your class.
Q: What does
the woman mean?
答案：
C. Jill wore the overcoat
last week.
解析：首先男生问女生上周是否穿过拉风外套，然后女生说：
“
That was my sister Jill.
She's
in your class.
”
（那是我姐姐
Jill
，她和你同班）也就是说男生很有可能看到的那个穿
< br>着拉风外套的人是女生的姐姐
Jill
。
18.
M:
Jane,
suppose
you
lost
all
your
money
while
taking
a
vacation
overseas,
what
would you do?
W: Well, I guess I'd sell
my watch or computer or do some odd jobs till I
could afford a
return plane
ticket.
Q: What are the speakers talking
about?
答案：
B. An imaginary
situation.
解析：
根据原文录音可知，
对话开头男生讲到：
“
Jane, suppose you lost all
your money
while taking a vacation
overseas, what would you do?
”
这里的
表明
“
假定、料想
”
由此可见，两人谈论的是一个虚拟场景。
Conversation One
听力原文
M: Hello, professor
Johnson.
W: Hello, Tony. So what shall we work
on today?
M:
Well,
the
problem
is
that
this
writing
assignment
isn't
coming
out
right.
What
I
thought
I
was
writing
on
was
to
talk
about
what
particular
sport
means
to
me
when
I
participate in,
W: What sport did you
choose?
M: I decided to write about cross-
country skiing.
W: What are you going to say about
skiing?
M: That's the problem. I thought I
would write about how peaceful it is to be out in
the
country.
W: So why is that a
problem?
M: As I start describing how quiet it
is to be out in the woods. I keep mentioning how
much effort it takes to keep going.
Cross-country skiing isn't as easy as some people
think.
It takes a lot of energy, but
that's not part of my paper. So I guess I should
leave it out. But
now I don't know how
to explain that feeling of peacefulness without
explaining how hard
you have to work
for it. It all fits together. It's not like just
sitting down somewhere and
watching the
clouds roll by. That's different.
W: Then you'll
have to include that in your point. The
peacefulness of cross-country
skiing
is
the kind
you
earn
by
effort.
Why
leave
that
out?
Part
of
your
point
you
knew
before hand but part
you discovered as you wrote. That's common,
right?
M: Yeah, I guess so.
Q19: What is
the topic of the man's writing
assignment?
C) Pain and pleasure in
sports
Q20: What problem does the man have
while working on his paper?
D) He can't decide whether
to include the effort part of skiing.
Q21: What does
the woman say is common in writing
papers?
A) New ideas come up as you
write.
19. D) A sport he participates
in
解
析：
题目问的是，
男生论文的主题是什么，
从
talk about what particular sport
means
to
me
when
I
participate
in<
/p>
一句中，可得对应选项
D
。
C
选项是一个干扰项，
pain
and
pleasure in sports,
意为运动中的痛苦与快乐，
其中
sports<
/p>
一词范围太大，
对话中只谈到了
cros
s-country skiing,
因此，
C
选项错。
20. D) He can't decide whether to
include the effort part of skiing.
解析：当男生打算将越野滑雪的艰
辛剔除出论文时，教授说了一句
“
Then you'll
have to
include that in your point.
”
对应选项
D
21. A) New
ideas come up as you write.
解析：在对话的最后，教授提到
“<
/p>
Part of your point you knew before hand
but part you
discovered as you wrote.
That's common, right?
”
这句话意思是
说，在写论文之前，论点的
一部分我们已经有了，但另一部分在写的过程中才会发现，因
此，对应选项
A
。
A
< br>选项与
D
选项较易混淆，但从教授的话中，我们可以看出
，不是论点发生变化，而是在写作过程中，
会有新的想法产生。
这篇长对话因为是围绕论文写作展
开，
而且涉及了一项我们中国人并不熟悉的运动，
越
野滑雪，因此，乍听之下，有些小抽象，小陌生。但细听之后，我们会发现，文中有一大段
都提到了男生在写作中遇到的纠结处，
那就是越野滑雪的畅快和由此所付
出的艰辛，
文章的
主旨自然呼之欲出了。
这篇对话主要考察对文章大意
的理解，
而不是纠结于一词一句的得失，
因此，
大家在做
题时，也要注意把握主干，不要因为听到了一个自己不太熟悉的运动就
舍本逐末。
Conversation Two
W: Good evening and welcome
to this week's Business World.
It program for
and about business people. Tonight we have Mr.
Angeleno who came
to the US six years
ago, and is now an established businessman with

/p>
C
？注意，

“

这篇对话是一篇较为简单的访谈节
目，
主要涉及一些细节问题，
其中，
关
键细节包括餐
馆经营情况，
广告宣传情况等，
< br>也是考点所在。
童鞋们在听时，
可以相应地做些简单的笔
记，
从而准确地选出选项。
Section B
Passage One
There are many
commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and
eyesight that are not
proven facts. For
instance, some people believe that wearing glasses
too soon weakens
the
eyes.
But
there
is
no
evidence
to
show
that
the
structure
of
eyes
is
changed
by
wearing glasses at a young age. Wearing
the wrong glasses, however, can prove harmful.
Studies show that for adults there is
no danger, but children can develop loss of vision
if
they have glasses inappropriate for
their eyes.
We have all heard some of the common
myths about how eyesight gets bad. Most
people believe that reading in dim
light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue.
Too little
light makes the eyes work
harder, so they do get tired and strained.
Eyestrain also results
from reading a
lot, reading in bed, and watching too much
television. However, although
eyestrain
may cause some pain or headaches, it does not
permanently damage eyesight.
Another myth
about eyes is that they can be replaced, or
transferred from one person
to another.
There are close to one million nerve fibres that
connect the eyeball to the brain,
as of
yet it is impossible to attach them all in a new
person. Only certain parts of the eye
can be replaced. But if we keep
clearing up the myths and learning more about the
eyes,
some day a full transplant may be
possible.
篇章类型及提要：论证文
听力点睛：
本文主要介绍关于纠正一些对眼镜
及视力的常识的错误认识。
注意文章首句
many commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and
eyesight that are not proven facts.
通常这种
文章首句就是主旨句。
这是做听力短文题必须要高度关注的。
接
下去可以推测下面
内容必然围绕主题句展开，
通过举例等来论证
作者要表明的观点。
所以听的时候也要高度专
注那些关键词句，
如
for instance, however, but, evidence,
although, Studies show that...
这些关键词句后面的
内容是听力常考的地方。
最后文章给出一个总结句呼吁人们破除固有的
< br>一些认识，去更多了解我们的眼睛，头尾呼应。

based on the passage you have just
heard.
