11. W: There’s a great movie on TV tonight. Do you want to watch it?
M: I’d rather not if it’s on at the same time as the football match.
Q: What does the man imply?
【解析】選[A]。男士表示如果電影和足球比賽同時放，他寧可不看電影?？梢娝矚g收看體育節(jié)目。would rather not表示“寧可不”。
12. M: I can’t understand why I’m getting so far behind.
W: Well, you know sometimes with all the fun and good times at university, it is easy to lose track of why you are here.
Q: What does the woman infer the man should do?
【解析】選[D]。lose track of...本意是“脫離…的軌道”，結合with all the fun and good times at university推斷，lose track of why you are here應是指背離了來大學的初衷。男士不明白自己為什么落后了那么多，女士幫他分析原因的同時其實還在暗示他要專注于上大學的初衷，好好學習，而不要被玩樂拖了后腿。選項[D]正確。
13. W: How about going skiing with us? We’re planning to do a bit of snowboarding too.
M: It sounds like fun. But I’d better tell you, I’ve never been on a snowboard and I’m not much a skier, either.
Q: What does the man imply?
【解析】選[C]。It sounds like fun表明男士愿意一道去滑雪，但從never been on a snowboard及not much a skier, either推斷，他對此并不擅長。選項[C]與此相符，為答案。snowboarding指“單板滑雪”。
14. W: I’m trying to finish these practice test questions but I’ve still got about 12 questions to do. At this rate, I’ll be burning the midnight oil if I hope to finish.
M: Oh, that explains why you’ve been hiding in here. You probably haven’t heard that the professor postponed the exam until further notice.
Q: What does the man mean?
【解析】選[A]。until further notice“直到進一步通知”≈ will inform everyone when it’ll be held，選項[A]與對話相符。burn the midnight oil指“開夜車”。
15. W: That picture flatters Susan very much. Don’t you think so?
M: No, I don’t. As a matter of fact, it makes her a little older than she really is.
Q: What does the woman think of the picture?
【解析】選[D]。本題問的女士對照片的看法。That picture flatters sb. ≈ That picture beautifies sb.，指“照片照得比本人漂亮”，因此選項[D]正確。
16. M: You’ve certainly done a lot of research for your project.
W: It seems like a lot, but actually I’ve just scratched the surface.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【解析】選[C]。scratch the surface的本意是“略懂皮毛”，結合男士說的You’ve certainly done a lot of research推測，女士說的I’ve just scratched the surface應是指 她做的工作還遠遠不夠(far from enough)，選項[C]正確。
