M: Take a look at this catalogue. Maybe we can find some gifts for Jane’s new house. W: Ok. But remember we can’t afford a lot. Q: What does the woman mean? 【答案解析】B 女士说道“我们付不起太多钱”，联系男士话语所提供的情景“find some gifts”，可以得出“不能购买太贵的礼物”这一结论，B选项是对女士话语的合理推断，因此正确。A选项是利用对话中的gifts一词设置的词汇干扰。 2. W: I’m getting absolutely nowhere with these statistics. M: How about my going through them with you? Q: What does the man mean? 【答案解析】D 男士说道“要不我和你一起仔细检查它们吧?”them是指女士提到的statistics，男士提出和她一起做，说明男士想要帮助女士，D选项为合理推断，因此正确。B选项中的has prepared使用现在完成式，且与男士说的“go through”并不相符，因此B选项错误。 3. M: We are ready to start the recording, aren’t we? Let’s begin on Page 55. W: Sorry. I am afraid I can’t begin right now. I forgot to bring my scripts. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 【答案解析】C 男士让女士和自己一起录音(Let’s begin)，女士说“我恐怕现在不能开始录音”，并解释了原因。而Let’s包含男女双方，女士不能立即开始录音录，那么男士也无法开始，C选项是对话的合理推断，因此正确。 4. W: Remember? Carl’s wedding is June 26. M: Oh, thanks for reminding me. I thought it wasn’t to be until sometime in July. Q: What are the speakers talking about? 【答案解析】C 女士说道“你记得Carl的婚礼是在6月26号吗?”，June 26即为日期，后面的对话内容都围绕 这一信息展开。C选项为对话内容的合理概括，因此正确。对话提到了wedding，但并没有与Preparations 相关的信息，因此B选项错误。 5. M: Please excuse me for not attending the meeting yesterday. I’m afraid I forgot to check the schedule. W: That’s all right. We have to hold the weekly meeting as scheduled and everything went well. Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 【答案解析】B 男士提到“没有参加会议”，女士回应说道“我们必须如期开周例会，并且一切都进展得很顺利”，由此可知男士所说的the meeting就是指the weekly meeting，即男士没有参加周例会。B选项为对话内容的合理推断，因此正确。 6. W: I’ve just put our lunch in the oven and it won’t be ready for at least half an hour. M: Mmm…it smells marvelous, but what can I have right now? Q: What do we learn from the conversation? 【答案解析】B 女士说道“我刚把我们的午餐放到烤箱里”和“还没准备好”，这说明他们的午餐还没好，男士提问“我现在可以吃什么”，说明他已经等不及了，现在就要吃饭，B选项为对话内容的合理推断，因此正确。 7. M: I got some bad news today. The store where I work is laying off staff. W: Are they going to let you go? Q: What does the woman want to know? 【答案解析】A 女士问男士“他们打算让你离开吗?”结合男士所提供的“laying off staff(裁员)”这一 情景可知，女士想知道男士会不会因裁员而离开商店，即男士能否保住他的工作，A选项是对话内容的合理推断，因此正确。 8. W: John, you swim like a fish. I wish I knew how to swim. M: Why not sign up for the lessons offered by the physical education department? Q: What does the man mean? 【答案解析】A 女士说道“我真希望我知道怎么游泳”，男士回应“sign up for the lessons”由此可以得出男士所说的lessons(课程)为游泳课。A选项为男士话语的合理推断，因此正确。对话中提到了“swim like a fish”，但这是形容男士的游泳姿态，跟女士没有关系，C选项为细节干扰。 Section C Stunt people are not movie stars, but they are the hidden heroes of many movies. They were around long before films. Even Shakespeare may have used them in fight scenes. To be good, a fight scene has to look real. Punches must land on enemies’jaws. Sword fights must be fought with sharp swords. Several actors are usually in a fight scene. Their moves must be set up so that no one gets hurt. It is almost like planning a dance performance. If a movie scene is dangerous, stunt people usually fill in for the stars. You may think you see Tom Cruise running along the top of a train. But it is probably his stunt double. Stunt people must resemble the stars they stand in for. Their height and build should be about the same. But when close?ups are needed, the film focuses on the star. Some stunt people specialize/specialise in certain kinds of scenes. For instance, a stunt woman named Jan Davis does all kinds of jumps. She has leapt from planes and even off the top of a waterfall. Each jump required careful planning and expert timing. Yakima Canutt was a famous cowboy stunt man. Among other stunts, he could jump from a second story window onto a horse’s back. He invented the famous trick of sliding under a moving stagecoach. Canutt also (35) figured out a new way to make a punch look real. He was the only stunt man ever to get an Oscar. 26.【答案解析】land on 空格所在的简单句中，Punches(拳)做主语，enemies’jaws(敌人的下巴)作宾语，故谓语应该表示“击、打、落”之意。空格所填词与情态动词must一起构成句子的谓语，因此空格处应填动词(词组)原形。 27.【答案解析】sharp 空格位于介词with和名词swords之间，故空格处应为swords的定语，可以是形容词、名词、现在分词和过去分词等形式。 28.【答案解析】fill in for If引导条件状语从句，空格位于其主句中。分析可知，主句缺少谓语。而主句主语stunt people形单意复按复数对待，且usually是一般现在时的提示词，故空格处应填入动词(词组)原形。 29.【答案解析】probably 空格所在句结构完整，故空格处作状语，修饰系动词is。根据空格所在位置判断应填入一个副词或介词短语。 30.【答案解析】resemble 空格所在句是一个主从复合句。主句中，Stunt people(特技演员)作主语，the stars(明星)作宾语，空格处与情态动词must一起构成主句的谓语，因此空格处应填动词(词组)原形。 31.【答案解析】focuses on 空格所在句是一个主从复合句，空格所在的主句缺少谓语。而主句主语the film为单数，且整个段落以一般现在时为基础，故空格处应填入动词(词组)的第三人称单数形式。 32.【答案解析】specialize/specialise 分析句子结构可知，空格所在句缺少谓语。结合主语people和全文时态可知，应填入动词(词组)原形。 33.【答案解析】timing 空格所在句中，主语为Each jump，谓语动词为required，and连接两个并列短语作required的宾语，即careful planning与expert。由此推断空格处可能与planning形式相同，应填入名词(词组)。 34. 【答案解析】invented 空格所在句为简单句，缺少谓语。结合上下文，本段在介绍特技演员Yakima Canutt，且段落以一般过去时为基础，故空格处应填入动词(词组)的过去式。 35.【答案解析】figured out 分析句子结构可知，空格所在的简单句缺少谓语。结合空前的also可知，这里描述的动作与34题在时态上应该相同，故空格处应填入动词(词组)的过去式。 相关资料 |
