W: I can’t seem to reach the tea at the back of the cupboard. M: Oh…Why don’t you use the ladder? You might strain your shoulder. Q: What does the man suggest the woman do? 【答案解析】B 对话中，女士说她够不到橱柜里的茶叶，说明茶叶摆放的位置对女士来说有点高。男士以“为什么不用梯子呢?”回应，可见，男士是建议女士use the ladder去reach the tea。B选项属于对话内容再现，因此正确。 2. W:Since it’s raining so hard, let’s go and see the new exhibits. M:That’s a good idea. Mary Johnson is one of my favorite painters. Q:Where does the conversation most probably take place? 【答案解析】D 通过对话中女士说的 “雨很大”和“去看新的展览”推断，地点应该在室外，即D选项中的Outside。且男士提到“my favorite painters”，D选项的art gallery正好与之对应，因此正确。 3. M:I hear the students gave the new teacher an unfair evaluation. W:It depends on which students you are talking about. Q:What does the woman imply? 【答案解析】B 女士说要取决于是哪些学生，这是对男士所说“给新老师的评估不公正”的回应，说明女士对于男士的说法有异议，并非所有学生都如此。B选项的does not quite agree是对女士话语的合理推断，因此正确。 4. W:It must have taken you a long time to fix up all these book shelves. M:It wasn’t too bad. I got Doris to do some of them. Q:What does the man mean? 【答案解析】C 对话中男士说道“I got Doris to do some of them”，这里的do和them是避免用词重复，指代 上句女士所说的“fix up”和“bookshelves”。C选项正是对男士话语的合理推断，因此正确。 5. W:Rod, I hear you’ll be leaving at the end of this month. Is it true? M:Yeah. I’ve been offered a much better position with another firm. I’d be a fool to turn it down. Q:Why is the man quitting his job? 【答案解析】D 女士就离职一事向男士发问时，男士给出了肯定答案“Yeah”，且补充说道“I’ve been offered a much better position…”。D选项的found与对话中been offered对应，a better position是对话内容的再现，因此D选项正确。 6. W:I honestly don’t want to continue the gardening tomorrow, Tony? M:Neither do I. But I think we should get it over with this weekend. Q:What does the man mean? 【答案解析】A 男士以“But”表明客观情况是“我们应该在周末前完成”，显而易见，做园艺的时间并不宽裕，A选项是对男士话语的合理推断，因此正确。 7. W:You’ve already furnished your apartment? M:I found some used furniture that was dirt cheap. Q:What do we learn from the conversation? 【答案解析】D 对话中男士说“我找到了一些很便宜的二手家具”。D选项的bought对应句中found，inexpensive对应cheap，是对该句的同义转述，因此D选项正确。 8. W:Has the mechanic called about the repairs? M:Not yet. I’ll let you know when he calls. Q:What do we learn from the conversation? 【答案解析】B 对话中女士问道“Has the mechanic called…”，男士以“Not yet”回答，并补充道“I’ll let you know when he calls”，说明the mechanic没有打电话过来，且女士想要接到the mechanic的电话。换言之，女士一直在等the mechanic的电话，B选项正是对这一情况的合理推断，故为正确答案。 Section C Among the kinds of social gestures most significant for second?language teachers are those which are identical in form but different in meaning in the two cultures. For example, a Colombian who wants someone to approach him often signals with a hand movement in which all the fingers of one hand, cupped, point downward as they move rapidly back and forth. Speakers of English have a similar gesture though the hand may not be cupped and the fingers may be held more loosely, but for them the gesture means goodbye or go away, quite the opposite of the Colombian gesture. Again, in Colombian, a speaker of English would have to know that when he indicates height he must choose between different gestures depending on whether he is referring to a human being or an animal. If he keeps the palm of the hand parallel to the floor, as he would in his own culture when making known the height of a child, for example, he will very likely be greeted by laughter; in Colombia this gesture is reserved for the description of animals. In order to describe human beings he should keep the palm of his hand at a right angle to the floor. Substitutions of one gesture for the other often create not only humorous but also embarrassing moments. In both of the examples above, speakers from two different cultures have the same gesture, physically, but its meaning differs sharply. 26.【答案解析】identical 空格出现在由which引导的定语从句中。从句的主语为关系代词which，系动词为are，空格和different由but连接作并列表语。由此推断，空格处很可能填入一个形容词，且与different表意相反，即意为“相同的”。 27.【答案解析】approach 空格位于who引导的定语从句中。该从句的主语为关系代词who，谓语动词为wants，宾语为someone，空格与其前面的to和后面的him一起构成动词不定式结构，作宾语补足语。由此推断，空格处应为及物动词(词组)原形。 28.【答案解析】back and forth 空格出现在由as引导的时间状语从句中。其中they作主语，move作谓语，rapidly作状语。分析句意可知，they指代“finger”，因此move为不及物动词。由此推断，空格处作状语，可能是副词(词组)、介词短语、动词不定式短语、分词(短语)等形式。 29.【答案解析】opposite 空格所在句是一个由but连接的并列句。空格所在的分句二主谓宾结构完整，空格所在部分与分句二以逗号隔开，作状语。鉴于空前是定冠词the，空后是介词of，本空应该填入一个具有名词性质的词(组)。 30.【答案解析】indicates 空格位于when引导的时间状语从句中，该从句缺少谓语。由于从句主语he为单数，且整篇文章以一般现在时为基础，空格处应填入动词(词组)的第三人称单数形式。 31.【答案解析】referring to空格所在的 whether引导的宾语从句中，主语是he，系动词是is，空格处作表语。此外，由空格后的名词短语可知，本空可能为现在分词(短语)、过去分词(短语)或“形容词+介词”等形式。 32.【答案解析】parallel to 空格出现在If引导的条件状语从句中，且从句主谓宾结构完整。结合上下文语境分析，空格处应作宾语the palm of the hand的补足语。此外，考虑到空格后有名词floor，形式可能是介词词组、形容词词组、分词(短语)等。 33.【答案解析】reserved 分析句子结构可知，空格可能在句中作表语，也可能与is构成现在进行式或被动语态，共同作谓语。由此可知空格处可能填入名词、形容词、现在分词、过去分词等。 34.【答案解析】at a right angle 空格所在句主谓宾结构完整。分析发现，本空与32题的空格处句型一致，所填词同样充当the palm of his hand的宾语补足语。因此本空应该也是描述手掌的位置，故需要填入一个表方位的词(组)，其形式可能是介词词组、形容词词组、分词(短语)等。 35.【答案解析】embarrassing 分析后可知，空格所在句主谓宾结构完整。not only…but also连接humorous与本空构成并列结构。由此推断，所填词很可能与humorous一样为形容词，共同作moments的定语。 相关资料 |
