M: Its been hot and humid for three weeks straight. I wish itd light up.W: I love summer weather, but there is a limit. Q: What does the woman mean? 【解析】选C。I love summer weather, but there is a limit表明女士喜欢hot weather，但她认为太多闷热潮湿的天气会令人不爽(Too much can be unpleasant)，选项C正确。12. M: Im trying to find someone to come with me to the new sculpture exhibit in the art museum on Saturday. W: Im not too crazy about art myself, but what about Mary? Shes taking an art history course and seems to be enjoying it. Q: What does the woman suggest the man do? 【解析】选B。be crazy about指喜好某事物，Im not too crazy about art myself表明女士不想陪男士去看雕塑展，but what about Mary?则表示她建议男士邀请其他人陪他一起去。13. M: Now suppose I was to stay at home and do all the housework and look after the children while my wife went out to work. What would you think about that?W: If Im going to be logical, no.Q: What does the woman mean?【解析】选C。男士假设他整天待在家里做家务、照看孩子，而他的妻子出去工作，问女士对此有什么想法。If Im going to be logical, no表明女士认为男士的假设是不合逻辑的(illogical)。14. W: These tomatoes are huge and fat. You must have watered and fertilized them a lot.M: Yes, I did. They ought to be ripe enough to pick by the next Friday when we have our party. Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place?【解析】选D。男士说等下周五聚会的时候西红柿就该熟透了，再结合女士话中的These tomatoes 及watered and fertilized them推断，两人应是在花园里针对西红柿植株展开对话的，因此选D。15. M: Im really enjoying that literature with Professor Benson. Was the lecture this morning interesting?W: To tell you the truth, I was so exhausted from staying up last night to finish the reading that I didnt get much out of it.Q: What does the woman mean?【解析】选B。so exhausted.that I didnt get much out of it说明女士太疲倦了，所以没怎么听Professor Benson讲的课。so.that.结构与too.to.结构意思相同，exhausted tired，get out of learn from，因此选项B正确。stay up意为熬夜。16. M: Im sorry, Miss. Youll have to come with us. Hidden cameras have detected what you have done. Leave the merchandise here.W: Ill come along, but I assure you that I can prove my innocence.Q: Where does this conversation most likely take place? 【解析】选A。结合男士话中的Hidden cameras (隐形摄像头)和merchandise(商品)推测，对话应该是发生在商店里，场景是男士怀疑女士偷了商店里的东西。17. W: I dont know why, but since I saw Williams on TV, I dont feel so bad about myself now.M: Well, they say laughter is the best medicine.Q: What can be inferred about the show the woman just watched? 【解析】选B。男士话中的they指Williams一家人，即电视节目中的人物。they say laughter is the best medicine表明这档节目很滑稽(funny)；since I saw Williams on TV, I dont feel so bad about myself now说明这档节目很令人鼓舞(inspiring)。18. M: Did you see that new art work? You know that poster they just put up in the cafeteria; I wonder whose bright idea that was.W: You know theres nothing wrong with the poster itself, it just doesnt go with the colors in the cafeteria.Q: What do we learn about the poster from the conversation?【解析】选C。女士所说的theres nothing wrong with the poster itself表明她和男士都认为自助餐厅里贴的海报不好看。另外，理解男士话中的讽刺语气(art work和bright idea)对解答该题也有很大帮助。go with the colors意为颜色搭配协调。Conversation OneM: Doctor Thomas? This is Keith Bradley from The Daily News. Id like to ask you some questions about the new official standard weight that you purchased.W: Id be happy to help you. What would you like to know?M: First of all, how is the standard weight used?W: Well, the people in our department use it to check the scales all over the country. The Department of Weights and Measures - were a government agency - its our responsibility to see that all the scales measure a kilogram accurately. So this is the weight we use to adjust the scales.M: How did you check the scales before?W: We have an old standard weight that we used to use. It had to be replaced because it was imprecise. You see, it was made of poor quality metal that was too porous - it absorbed too much moisture.M: Oh, so when the weather was humid, it weighed more. And when it was dry, it weighed less.W: Exactly. And that variation can affect the standards of the whole country. So our department had the new weight made out of higher quality metal.M: How much did it cost?W: About forty-five thousand dollars.M: Forty-five thousand dollars! For a one kilogram weight! Thats more expensive than gold. Is it really worth that much?W: Im sure it is. Industries depend on our government agency to monitor the accuracy of scales, so that when they buy and sell their products theres one standard. Think of the drug industry, for example: those companies rely on high accuracy scales to manufacture and package medicine.Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.19. What is the conversation mainly about?【解析】选A。选项都是一些总结性的词句表明该题可能就对话的主旨或大意提问。由对话开头就提到的some questions about the new official standard weight that you purchased可判断该对话是围绕新的标准测重砝码展开的，故选A。B和C都是针对对话中it was made of poor quality metal that was too porous - it absorbed too much moisture设的干扰项。D在对话中没有涉及。20. How is the weight used?【解析】选B。选项表明该题可能考查某一个事物的用途或作用。C中的atmosphere与选项中多次提到的scale，metal，weight等词关系不大，故可初步排除。由对话中Dr. Thomas的回答. use it to check the scales all over the country可直接得出答案是B。D是根据对话中的higher quality metal设的干扰项。21. What does Doctor Thomas probably think about the cost of the new weight?【解析】选D。选项表明该题是就某物是否值许多钱提问。A 和C的观点完全相反，B持中立态度，D说该事物拥有的重要功能来说是很合理的，看问题全面、客观，这样的选项往往是答案。当对话中女士对该工具是否值那么多钱提出疑问时，Dr. Thomas的回答是Im sure it is，而后又举了药品工业的例子说明标准测量砝码的重要功能，故D正确。Conversation TwoM: Hi, Grace. Mind if I eat lunch with you?W: No. Mr. Evans, not at all.M: Thanks. I just heard that youre studying nutrition and youve got quite a bit of experiences working in the cafeteria, so I wonder if you will be interested in a small project we are doing this term.W: Whats the project all about?M: More and more students have been deciding not to buy the meal here and we want to attract them back. So I want to hear what students would like. Your job would be to find out.W: Well, if the menus were changed, then maybe I wouldnt have to listen to so much criticism.M: That makes you perfect for the job. Would you be interested?W: Im not sure. What sorts of changes are you thinking of?M: Id like to make some changes in the way we prepare our food. For example, just look at what we have to choose from today. You got a fried hamburger and I got fried chicken. They both contain too much fat.W: But youd better not get rid of them. Theyre everybodys favorite.M: Well, we can certainly keep them, but we need to give the people who are health-conscious some choices. For example, we could also prepare chicken without the fatty skin and serve it on some rice with a light sauce. Do you think that would appeal to students?W: Well, Id like that. Youre right. Youd better find out what others think. Sorry, Ive got to get back to work. Id like to hear more though. Ill drop by your office later.M: OK, see you then.Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.22. What are the two speakers talking about?【解析】选B。选项表明该题很可能是就双方谈论的话题提问，且谈论的话题与cafeteria有关。根据对话中男士所说的Id like to make some changes in the way we prepare our food可判断B正确。A和C的内容在对话中均没有涉及。D是根据对话中的working设的干扰项。23. What does the man want the woman to do?【解析】选D。选项表明该题很可能就某人的工作或任务提问。选项A、C、D都与食物有关，而B没有涉及到食物，与其他三项差别较大，故可初步排除。由对话中男士所说的I want to hear what students would like. Your job would be to find out可推知Mr. Evans是要Grace调查学生喜欢的食物，这与D意思一致。A是针对对话中的fried hamburger和fried chicken设的干扰项。24. What does the man suggest the cafeteria do?【解析】选C。选项表明该题可能考查某人对食物的建议。A、C、D都提到了食物的配料或成分，B只提到了食物的价格，与其他三项明显不同，故可初步排除。由对话中的a fried hamburger .fried chicken.both contain too much fat推断，男士建议女士应该做一些脂肪含量少的食物，这与C意思一致。D是强干扰项，男士只是拿这些油炸食品举例，告诉女士应该增加产品种类。25. How does the woman think of the mans project?【解析】选C。根据选项推断该题可能考查某人的态度。前三项都属于一种明确的态度，DIndifferent意思为漠不关心的，与其他三项明显不同，很可能不是答案。由对话中女士所说的Whats the project all about？及Id like that可推知女士对男士的项目很感兴趣，故选C。考生应注意含有somewhat，certain等词的选项往往是答案。 Section BPassage OneQuestions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26.

Your teeth are a living part of your body. They have nerves and blood vessels. Diseased teeth can cause pain, die, and fall out. False teeth often do not work as well as natural teeth. If you do take proper care of your teeth, you can keep them your entire life.Plaque is the main enemy of healthy teeth. Everyone has plaque. It is a sticky, colorless film that coats the teeth. Plaque is always forming on the teeth. Plaque that is left on the teeth for some time hardens. The result is tooth decay and gum disease. The bacteria in plaque live on sugar. They change sugar into acids. If left untreated, decay goes deeper and deeper into the tooth. After a while the decay reaches the nerves and blood vessels of the inner tooth. By the time this happens, the tooth has probably started to ache.In addition to tooth decay, there are also gum diseases to watch out for. The bacteria in plaque make poisons that attack the gums. Teeth become loose and may fall out. Adults lose most teeth this way.Gum disease starts slowly. There may be no pain. As a rule, gum disease first appears as swelling. Then the gums become tender. There also may be bleeding. To heal diseased gums, your teeth need one or more dental cleanings. Regular visits to your dentist are a must.Many people worry about bad teeth. This may result from several causes. It could be due to gum disease or leftover bits of food. It may be caused by plaque. Decayed teeth can cause bad breath.Keep your mouth healthy! When you brush your teeth, do a good job.Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.26. What does tooth contain according to the passage?【解析】选A。根据文中的Your teeth are a living part of your body. They have nerves and blood vessels可知，牙齿存在神经和血管，由此可知选项A正确。27. What does the bacteria in plaque live on?【解析】选C。文中提到The bacteria in plaque live on sugar，由此可知，牙菌斑里的细菌依靠糖分生存，因此选项C正确。28. What is the most appropriate title for this article?【解析】选B。本文通过介绍牙齿的构成部分以及牙菌斑引发的蛀牙和牙龈疾病，指出保持牙齿健康的必要性，因此适合本文的标题应为：蛀牙和牙龈疾病，B项正确。Passage TwoGood morning. First Id like to welcome all of you to this workshop on student housing. Ill go through the information about types of housing available for the fall and later hand out application forms. Then, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me.There are three main types of housing here for you to choose from: the dorms, the family student apartments, and the international houses. As of now, there is some space available in each type, but they are filling up fast. You should get your application in as soon as possible. Let me explain some of the main features for each type of housing.We have mens dorms, womens dorms, and coed dorms. Most of the rooms are doubles, with two beds, two closets, and two desks. We also have a few triples and a few single suites, but I think the suites are already taken. On each floor of the dorms there is a large bathroom and shower area. There arent cooking facilities in the dorms, but you can buy a meal ticket for the cafeteria.The family student apartments are grouped together near the north entrance to the school. Each apartment has a kitchen, a living dining area, and either one or two bedrooms. There is a fenced play area for children.The international houses are a group of apartments for any student. They are organized into language and culture themes, and some of them have rules about speaking only a certain language during mealtimes. Its been a good way for students to learn about other cultures as well as practice languages. These houses are for all students, no matter how much of a particular language you speak. I think that Spanish House is full, but there are rooms available in all the other houses.Well, thats the main information. Ill pass out these applications now and answer your individual questions.Questions 29 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.29. According to the speaker, what should the listeners do as soon as possible?【解析】选B。文中的.but they are filling up fast. You should get your application in as soon as possible表明，因为房间很快就会住满人了，所以listeners需要尽快把申请交上去，B项正确。30. Which type of housing allows cooking?【解析】选C。由文中的The family student apartments.Each apartment has a kitchen可知，供一家人住的房间里设有厨房，可以做饭，C项正确。31. Which place has no more room for students?【解析】选D。speak提到I think that Spanish House is full.，由此可知，西班牙语的房间已经住满没有地方可安排了，D项与文章内容相符。32. What will the listeners probably do next?【解析】选C。由短文最后一句可知，接下来speaker会给大家分发申请表，而listeners需要做的就是填写申请表，因此C为答案。Passage ThreeA baby spends the first year of life learning to listen. A newborn child comes equipped with a finely tuned pair of ears, but he doesnt yet know how to use them. A buzz of meaningless noise surrounds him. No one sound means more than any other. Unlike his ears, the hearing center of his brains is still immature. As the baby grows, two things happen. First, he becomes better at picking out certain sounds. Second, he begins to remember them.This development is easy to see. If you make a loud sound near a day old babys head, you will not see any reaction. Only a check on his pulse or breathing rate will show a change. But just two weeks later, the same noise will make him jerk. He may even turn his head toward you, now the human voice means something to him. If he hears another baby crying, he may cry. By his fourth to sixth week, sounds like the doorbell or the closing of a door no longer surprise him.What is actually happening is that he is starting to learn to listen. He can select certain sounds and memorize them. When he hears that sound again, he can match it with the one he has heard before. These skills are basic to all learning.At the same time these early hearing and language skills get under way, the child begins to practice making sounds. His first sounds are the discomfort sounds. These sounds are heard when he is not quiet or sleeping. These sounds mean nothing to him yet. To his mother they say he is wet, uncomfortable, or hungry.Within the babys first month, another sound appears: the comfort sounds. These are different from the discomfort sounds. As the child grows, his comfort sounds will use more of the vowels and consonants and rhythms which he will later use. These sounds will come together to form the first word. This special event will be long remembered by the proud parents.Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.33. Why does a newborn baby have to spend the first year of his life learning to listen?【解析】选B。综合文中提到的A newborn child comes equipped with a finely tuned pair of ears和Unlike his ears, the hearing center of his brains is still immature可知，新生儿之所以要用第一年的时间学习听音是因为虽然他们耳部发育已经成熟，但他们大脑的听力中心却没有发育成熟，选项B正确。34. Whats a newborn babys reaction to a loud noise near him?【解析】选D。文中提到， If you make a loud sound near a day old babys head, you will not see any reaction，即如果在刚出生的婴儿的头部上方弄出大的声响，你不会看到他有任何反应，选项D不理睬与原文相符。35. When does a baby begin to use more vowels and consonants?【解析】选B。文中提到，As the child grows, his comfort sounds will use more of the vowels and consonants.，由此很容易得知本题答案为B。 Section CAttention to detail is something everyone can and should do especially in a (36) _job market.
