Part ⅢListening Comprehension
Section A
11. M: Gordon needs to find another place to live. The apartment he rents now has been sold to a new owner.
W: He'd better start looking right away. When all the students come back in a few weeks, he won't find any near the campus.
Q: What does the woman suggest Gordon do?
A)。從選項可以猜測本題是對行為的考查,考查某人應該做某事,因此聽錄音時要側重建議性的句型信息。男士說Gordon needs to find another place to live,可知此人想找房子,接著女士說He'd better start looking right away。had better do sth.是建議句型的提示信息,后面的內(nèi)容即是答案所在。
12. W: Judy earned a lot of money over the summer as an advisor for that agency.
M: I don't doubt it. What surprises me is that she is still working there, now that classes have started again.
Q: What does the man say about Judy?
B)。由選項預測本題考查男士的觀點,聽錄音時應著重理解男士的話。從女士話中的earn money,over the summer可知對話涉及學校兼職工作,男士的回答中出現(xiàn)了What surprises me is that...,這是明顯的提示信息,其后即是答案所在。
13. M: There is an article here in this magazine that might interest you. It's about buying running shoes.
W: If it's not chemistry and it's not on the final exam, I can read it now.
Q: What is the woman probably doing now?
B)。由選項預測本題考查正在發(fā)生的動作。對話中男士在向女士推薦一篇文章,解題關鍵在于理解女士答話中的if條件句,"如果不是因為化學和期末考試,我現(xiàn)在就能讀了"。那么真實情況也就是"我在準備考試,沒時間讀文章"。
14. W: Please turn down the television. I can't hear anything my friend is saying on the phone.
M: Hurry up and finish your call. I don't like standing so close. The light hurts my eyes.
Q: Why is the woman upset?
C)。由選項預測本題是對原因提問,并且是針對女士,聽錄音時應著重體會因果關系。對話中女士要求關閉電視,并直接說明了理由,can't hear anything on the phone,與C)相符。至于男士的要求及其理由是本題的干擾項,注意辨別。
15. W: I was quite surprised when I heard William play the violin. From the way he talked I thought he was just starting his lessons.
M: Oh, that's the way he always talks.
Q: What do we learn about William from this conversation?
C)。由選項預測本題是對William的行為進行判斷。聽力考試中考生不僅要辨別細節(jié)和事實,還要具備根據(jù)內(nèi)涵、語氣等進行推斷的能力。本題女士話中的surprised暗示W(wǎng)illiam的violin表現(xiàn)出人意料,但從From the way...his lessons可推出他說話謙虛,讓女士原以為他剛開始學習violin。
16. W: It's really a big problem to teach our children how to behave. When I get angry, I say things I don't mean.
M: If you want your kids to be polite, you'll have to be polite to them.

A)。由選項預測本題是對孩子的行為進行判斷。從女士話中的children,teach,behave可知對話是在討論孩子教育問題。本題關鍵在于理解男士的回答,"如果你希望孩子們有禮貌,你就必須對他們有禮貌",強調(diào)父母的榜樣力量,由此可歸納出Children learn by example的結論。
17. M: Good morning, I'd like to speak to Mr. Jones, please. This is Tim Kunts at the Oak Street computer center.
W: Mr. Kunts, my husband isn't at home. I can give you his business phone if you'd like to call him at work, though.
Q: Where is Mr. Kunts now?
C)。由選項預測本題是對地點提問,聽錄音時應著重聽表示地點的詞。從男士話中I'd like to speak to...可知他在打電話找Mr. Jones,而接電話的是女士,從她答話中的not at home,business phone以及call him at work可以推斷出答案是at company。
18. W: I have eaten in so many restaurants during the past week that the thought of eating out again makes me sick.

Q: What does the man mean?
