  答案解析

Section A(1-8)

1. W:I’d like to take a trip to Florida for my spring break. Can you give me any idea where to go?

M:I could tell you about the places I’ve visited, but I think you’d better look up a travel agency to help with the arrangements.

Q:What does the man suggest the woman do?

【答案解析】C 本题询问男士建议女士做什么。男士说道“你最好找一家旅行社帮忙安排行程”,C选项“咨询一下旅行社”是对此的同义转述,因此正确。

2. M:I’m really tired of driving at night even though the traffic seems fine.

W:I see. Let’s stop for some food and then find a motel nearby so we can start early tomorrow.

Q:What do we learn about the speakers?

【答案解析】A 对话中男士说“即使交通顺畅我也不喜欢夜间驾驶”,这表明他很可能在驾车;接着女士说道“在附近找家汽车旅馆吧,这样明天我们就能提早出发”,由此可知男士的确正在驾车且明天还要继续驾车,综上可以推断他们正在开车进行长途旅行,因此A选项正确。

3. M:Jeff’s got a lot of good ideas. Do you think he’s willing to come to the meeting?

W:Oh, I think he’d be glad to come, but what’s difficult is getting the guy to speak before a large crowd.

Q:What does the woman imply about Jeff?

【答案解析】C 女士说“但说服这个家伙在很多人面前说话很难”,这说明Jeff不喜欢或不情愿在很多人面前说话,C选项是女士话语的合理推断,因此正确。

4. W:I hear you are leaving the company and going back to school this year.

M:Yes. I’m enrolled in a graduate programme in public administration.

Q:What is the man going to do?

【答案解析】B 男士说“是的。我被一个公共管理的研究生项目录取了”,前面的“是的”肯定了女士所说的“你要离开公司重返校园”这一事件,后半部分对其进行进一步补充说明。由此可知,男士打算在学业上进一步深造,B选项是对此的合理推断,因此正确。

5. W:Have you applied for the art director position?

M:No. I’d like to, but the job starts on the first of May, and I won’t be available until June.

Q:What does the man mean?

【答案解析】A 女士询问男士是否申请了艺术指导职位,男士答道“没有”,说明他没有去申请,接着男士解释道,工作5月开始,而自己6月才有时间,说明他不能在5月按时入职,A选项是男士话语的合理推断,因此正确。

6. W:Will my car be ready by the end of the day?

M:It should be. I’ll call if there’re any problems. We are open until six.

Q:What is probably the man’s job?

【答案解析】B 女士说“我的车今天之内能修好吗?”,说明女士在等着取回自己的车;而男士回答 “如果有任何问题,我会给你打电话”,由“问题”可知女士的车出现了问题,男士很可能是帮助女士修车的,B选项是对话内容的合理推断,因此正确。

7. W:I have a big paper due Monday, but I promised Laura we’d clean the apartment this weekend. What am I going to do?

M:Why don’t you just see if Laura can wait for a week or two?

Q:What does the man suggest the woman do?

【答案解析】D 联系女士的“我答应过 Laura这周末一起打扫公寓,我该怎么办?”这一语境可知,男士说“Laura能否等个一两周再打扫?”,言下之意是希望“打扫”推后。D选项是对男士话语的同义转述,因此正确。

8. W:Construction on the bridge has really slowed the traffic.

M:I know. Since they started working, the time it takes me to get to work has doubled.

Q:What are the speakers talking about?

【答案解析】A 当女士提出“桥上的施工严重阻碍了交通”时,男士说道“我花在上班路上的时间都加倍了”,言下之意是二人都因为“施工”延长了在路上的时间,这显然是他们不希望的。由此推断,A选项的problem正是对“阻碍交通”和“时间加倍”的合理概括,因此A选项正确。
