Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)
本文首先介紹了導(dǎo)盲犬如何幫助失明或視力很弱的人外出活動，接著講了導(dǎo)盲犬在工作中和工作后的不同表現(xiàn)，然后著重敘述了選拔導(dǎo)盲犬及其訓(xùn)練過程，最后交代了導(dǎo)盲犬學(xué)校要根據(jù)人與導(dǎo)盲犬各自的個性將他們進(jìn)行搭配，直到導(dǎo)盲犬和盲人完全了解對方的動作時，導(dǎo)盲犬才可以從學(xué)校畢業(yè)。
1. B)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞a guide dog可將答案定位至第一個標(biāo)題下第一段第三句：To do this, a guide dog must know how to keep on a direct route, ignoring distractions such as smells, other animals and people.
【解析】原文指出，一條導(dǎo)盲犬在導(dǎo)盲時必須知道如何做到保持一條直達(dá)的路線，不被別的氣味、動物或者人吸引。文中的keep on a direct route與選項B)中的walk straight 屬于同義轉(zhuǎn)述，且都指的是導(dǎo)盲犬的行為，故答案為B)。
2. D)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞any command可將答案定位至第一個標(biāo)題下第二段第一句：Additionally, a guide dog must know to disobey any command that would put the handler in danger.
【解析】本句指出，對于那些會給主人帶來危險的命令，導(dǎo)盲犬必須學(xué)會不服從。題干中的any command指任何命令，顯然過于絕對化了，與本句相矛盾，故D)為正確答案。
3. C)
【定位】由各選項中的關(guān)鍵詞可將答案定位至第一個標(biāo)題下第三段。
【解析】該段并沒有提及notify the handler的相關(guān)信息。所以答案是C)。
4. B)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞guide dogs will enjoy可將答案定位至第二個標(biāo)題下第一段第一句：Guide dogs enjoy their work immensely, and they get a lot of satisfaction from a job well done, but there is no room for typical dog fun during the work day.
【解析】原文表明，導(dǎo)盲犬非常熱愛它們的工作，會從做好工作中得到很強(qiáng)的滿足感，因此它們真正enjoy的是工作本身，即答案B),而選項D)的satisfaction是由做好本職工作而產(chǎn)生的感覺，并不是它們enjoy的直接對象。
5. C)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞guide dog work, the best thing可將答案定位至第二個標(biāo)題下第二段第三句：People are very impressed with guide dogs and so we have a natural inclination to praise them, but the best thing you can do to help a guide dog is to leave it alone...
【解析】本句表明對待導(dǎo)盲犬的方式就是不要在它工作的時候打擾它，這樣它便可以把全部的注意力放在觀察周圍環(huán)境和主人身上，故正確答案為C)。
6. B)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞play和work可將答案定位至第二個標(biāo)題下最后一段第二句：Guide dogs make the distinction between work and play based on their lead harness.
【解析】原文表明導(dǎo)盲犬是靠它們的挽具來區(qū)分工作還是休息的。本題題干中的tells與原文中的make the distinction是同義轉(zhuǎn)述，表示區(qū)分,題干中的by對應(yīng)原文中的based on,故根據(jù)原文，得出答案為B)。
7. D)
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞evaluated at the guide dog school可將答案定位至第三個標(biāo)題下第二段第一句：In some schools, if a dog is suited for training but not quite ready, it may go back...
【解析】原文表明，在一些學(xué)校，如果一條狗很適合接受導(dǎo)盲訓(xùn)練但沒有準(zhǔn)備好，它可能會被送回到幼犬飼養(yǎng)人那里再長幾個月或者直到成年，由此得出，學(xué)校要看小狗各方面適不適合接受訓(xùn)練以來決定是否留下它并將其訓(xùn)練成導(dǎo)盲犬，故D)為正確答案。
8. food
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞Different from ordinary obedience training,可將答案定位至第三個標(biāo)題下末段首句：Unlike ordinary obedience training, guide dog training does not use food as a reward for good performance.
【解析】此處需要填入名詞來做介詞instead of的賓語，表示不用...來作為獎勵。原文中指出，訓(xùn)練導(dǎo)盲犬不能以食物來作為其良好表現(xiàn)的獎勵，后面又指明了原因，因為導(dǎo)盲犬必須能夠在周圍都是食物的地方工作而不會因為食物分心，因此填入答案為food。
9. the new masters
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞At the end of training可將答案定位至第四個標(biāo)題下首段首句：The final stage of a guide dogs training is learning to work with its new master.
【解析】此處應(yīng)填入名詞性成分，作介詞with的賓語，原文指出，作為導(dǎo)盲犬訓(xùn)練的最后階段就是學(xué)習(xí)與主人一起配合好，一起合作。由于題干中從句的主語為復(fù)數(shù)the dogs,因此此處應(yīng)填入the new masters。
10. each other's every movement
【定位】由題干關(guān)鍵詞handler and the guide dog，learning可將答案定位至全文最后一句：By the time they graduate from the guide dog school, they can read each other's every movement.
【解析】此處應(yīng)填入名詞性成分，作動詞read的賓語。原文中指出，當(dāng)他們可以互相了解對方的每一個動作時，就可以從導(dǎo)盲學(xué)校里畢業(yè)了，因此此處填入each other's every movement。
Part Ⅲ Listening Comprehension

11. M: Why don't you come to our home for dinner some time this week? I have practiced to improve my cooking.
W: I'd like to, but we have visitors from Finland, perhaps next week.
Q: Why can't the woman accept the man's invitation?
【解析】B)。四個選項都是關(guān)于女士，由此暗示對話當(dāng)中應(yīng)該更加重視與女士有關(guān)的部分。男士邀請女士去他家吃晚飯(come to our home for dinner)，女士說這個星期有芬蘭來的客人（visitors from Finland）要招待，可能要下個星期去。因為女士這個星期有客人，所以女士不能接受男士的邀請。故正確答案為B)。

W: If I were you, I'd request the wake-up call from the hotel reception.
Q: What does the woman advise the man do?
【解析】D)。四個選項都是不定式，由此可以推斷，本題的內(nèi)容可能是目的或者動作。 女士說，如果我是你(If I were you)，就會要旅店提供叫醒電話(wake-up call)。由此可見，女士建議男士ask for a wake-up call，正確答案為D)。

W: I don't think you can. Mr. Smith has just parked his car at the door, and he is coming up now.
Q: What can we learn from this conversation?
【解析】B)。四個選項都更側(cè)重男士方面，由此暗示對話當(dāng)中應(yīng)該更加注意與男士相關(guān)的部分。 男士一般都在星期六下午睡個午覺(enjoy a long siesta on Saturday afternoon)，但女士說Mr. Smith已經(jīng)在門口停車，馬上就來了(parked his car at the door，he is coming up)。由此可以推斷，男士今天不能睡午覺了(won't be able to enjoy a nap)。故正確答案為B)。
14. W: How is George doing? Is he doing all right?
M: He is doing fine now. He planned to change his job for a while but finally decided to keep the present one.
Q: What can we learn about George in this conversation?
【解析】B)。四個選項都是有關(guān)George和工作的關(guān)系，對工作的看法和態(tài)度，由此可以推測，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于George和工作的。 George的工作現(xiàn)在做得不錯(doing fine)。雖然他想過換工作(planned to change his job)，但是他決定保留現(xiàn)有的工作(keep the present one)。故正確答案為B)。
15. W: Good morning. This is Dr.Allen's office.
M: Good morning. I'd like to make an appointment with Dr.Allen to have my teeth cleaned and checked. I'd like to have it done this week if possible.
Q: Who is the woman?
【解析】C)。四個選項都是表示身份的詞，由此可以推測，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于某人的身份。男士要和牙醫(yī)預(yù)約洗牙和檢查(have my teeth cleaned and checked)。由此可見，女士應(yīng)該是牙醫(yī)診所的接待員(receptionist)。故C)為正確答案。
16. M: Professor Kennedy has been very busy this semester. As far as I know he works till midnight every day.
W: I wouldn't have troubled him so much if I had known he was so busy.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
【解析】D)。四個選項都是有關(guān)女士和教授之間的關(guān)系，由此可以推測，本問題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于女士和教授的學(xué)習(xí)和工作的。 男士說教授這個學(xué)期很忙(very busy this semester)，每天工作到深夜(works till midnight every day)。女士回答說如果早知道是這么忙就不會那樣麻煩他了(wouldn't have troubled him)。由此可以推測女士很后悔占用了教授很長時間(regrets having taken up much of the professor's time)。故D)為正確答案。
17. W: May I make a recommendation, sir? The clams with our special sauce are good. They're fresh from the ocean.
M: Thank you, but I don't care for clams.
Q: Where did this conversation probably take place?
【解析】A)。四個選項都是表示地點場景的短語，由此可以推斷，本題是考查關(guān)于某件事情發(fā)生的地點。 女士推薦說配特制醬汁的蛤蜊(The clams with our special sauce)很不錯，蛤蜊是剛從海里捕上來的(fresh from the ocean)。由此可見本對話發(fā)生在餐館(restaurant)，故正確答案為A)。
18. W: I suppose we should look for a bigger house, but I don't see how we can afford it right now.
M: If only we hadn't spent so much money on our car this year.
Q: What can we learn from the conversation about the speakers?
【解析】D)。四個選項都是They可能會做出的選擇，由此可以推斷，本題是考查關(guān)于某些人即將做出的決定。女士覺得應(yīng)該找一間大一點的房子(look for a bigger house)，但目前又承擔(dān)（afford）不起。男士指出了負(fù)擔(dān)不起的原因，今年花了錢在買汽車上(spent so much money on our car)。由此可見，他們無法換一間大點的房子，因為錢不夠(don't have enough money)。故正確答案為D)。
