Part Ⅲ Listening Comprehension
Section A
11. M: Why don't you come to our home for dinner some time this week? I have practiced to improve my cooking.

Q: Why can't the woman accept the man's invitation?
【解析】B)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是關(guān)于女士，由此暗示對(duì)話當(dāng)中應(yīng)該更加重視與女士有關(guān)的部分。男士邀請(qǐng)女士去他家吃晚飯(come to our home for dinner)，女士說(shuō)這個(gè)星期有芬蘭來(lái)的客人（visitors from Finland）要招待，可能要下個(gè)星期去。因?yàn)榕窟@個(gè)星期有客人，所以女士不能接受男士的邀請(qǐng)。故正確答案為B)。

W: If I were you, I'd request the wake-up call from the hotel reception.
Q: What does the woman advise the man do?

Q: What can we learn from this conversation?
【解析】B)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都更側(cè)重男士方面，由此暗示對(duì)話當(dāng)中應(yīng)該更加注意與男士相關(guān)的部分。 男士一般都在星期六下午睡個(gè)午覺(jué)(enjoy a long siesta on Saturday afternoon)，但女士說(shuō)Mr. Smith已經(jīng)在門(mén)口停車(chē)，馬上就來(lái)了(parked his car at the door，he is coming up)。由此可以推斷，男士今天不能睡午覺(jué)了(won't be able to enjoy a nap)。故正確答案為B)。
14. W: How is George doing? Is he doing all right?
M: He is doing fine now. He planned to change his job for a while but finally decided to keep the present one.
Q: What can we learn about George in this conversation?
【解析】B)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是有關(guān)George和工作的關(guān)系，對(duì)工作的看法和態(tài)度，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于George和工作的。 George的工作現(xiàn)在做得不錯(cuò)(doing fine)。雖然他想過(guò)換工作(planned to change his job)，但是他決定保留現(xiàn)有的工作(keep the present one)。故正確答案為B)。

【解析】C)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是表示身份的詞，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于某人的身份。男士要和牙醫(yī)預(yù)約洗牙和檢查(have my teeth cleaned and checked)。由此可見(jiàn)，女士應(yīng)該是牙醫(yī)診所的接待員(receptionist)。故C)為正確答案。
16. M: Professor Kennedy has been very busy this semester. As far as I know he works till midnight every day.
W: I wouldn't have troubled him so much if I had known he was so busy.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
【解析】D)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是有關(guān)女士和教授之間的關(guān)系，由此可以推測(cè)，本問(wèn)題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于女士和教授的學(xué)習(xí)和工作的。男士說(shuō)教授這個(gè)學(xué)期很忙(very busy this semester)，每天工作到深夜(works till midnight every day)。女士回答說(shuō)如果早知道是這么忙就不會(huì)那樣麻煩他了(wouldn't have troubled him)。由此可以推測(cè)女士很后悔占用了教授很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間(regrets having taken up much of the professor's time)。故D)為正確答案。
17. W: May I make a recommendation, sir? The clams with our special sauce are good. They're fresh from the ocean.
M: Thank you, but I don't care for clams.
Q: Where did this conversation probably take place?
【解析】A)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是表示地點(diǎn)場(chǎng)景的短語(yǔ)，由此可以推斷，本題是考查關(guān)于某件事情發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)。 女士推薦說(shuō)配特制醬汁的蛤蜊(The clams with our special sauce)很不錯(cuò)，蛤蜊是剛從海里捕上來(lái)的(fresh from the ocean)。由此可見(jiàn)本對(duì)話發(fā)生在餐館(restaurant)，故正確答案為A)。
18. W: I suppose we should look for a bigger house, but I don't see how we can afford it right now.
M: If only we hadn't spent so much money on our car this year.
Q: What can we learn from the conversation about the speakers?
【解析】D)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是They可能會(huì)做出的選擇，由此可以推斷，本題是考查關(guān)于某些人即將做出的決定。女士覺(jué)得應(yīng)該找一間大一點(diǎn)的房子(look for a bigger house)，但目前又承擔(dān)（afford）不起。男士指出了負(fù)擔(dān)不起的原因，今年花了錢(qián)在買(mǎi)汽車(chē)上(spent so much money on our car)。由此可見(jiàn)，他們無(wú)法換一間大點(diǎn)的房子，因?yàn)殄X(qián)不夠(don't have enough money)。故正確答案為D)。
Conversation One
M: Oh,Janna, you're early! I'm happy you're here early today because I'd like to discuss your attendance for a moment.
W: Gee, Dr.Livingston, (19) I'm really sorry about missing class yesterday.

W: Sorry, I've been extremely busy. I can explain for it. Dr.Livingston. I have a part-time job, so...
M: Well, I hope you're already for today's exam.
W: Today? I thought it was Monday!

W: What do you mean?
M: Today's the final day you can withdraw and get a full refund.
W: Maybe I really should. What do you suggest?
M: I wish you could attend classes regularly; however, if you don't believe you're capable of this, then don't waste your money.
W: Thanks, Dr.Livingston. I really appreciate your advice. If it's okay,(21) I suppose I'll go ahead and drop the class.

Conversation Two
W: Dr.Thomas? This is Keet Bradley from the daily news.(22)I'd like to ask you some questions about the new official standard weight that you purchased.
M: I'd be happy to help you. What would you like to know?
W: First of all, how was the standard weight used?
M: Well, the people in our department (23)use it to check the scales all over the country. The department of weights and measures, we are a government agency. It's our responsibility to see that (23)all the scales measure a kilogram accurately so this is the way we use to adjust the scales.
W: How did you check the scales before?
M: We have an old standard weight that we used to use.(24)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.
W: Oh. So when the weather was humid it weighed more and when it was dry it weighed less.
M: 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.
W: How much did it cost?
M: About 45 thousand dollars.
W: 45,000 dollars? For one kilogram weight? That's more expensive than gold.(25)Is it really worth that much?
M: (25)I'm sure it is. Industries depend on our government agency to monitor the accuracy of scales so that when they buy and sell their products there is one standard. Think of the drug industry, for example, those companies rely on high accuracy scales to manufacture and package medicine.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. What is the conversation mainly about?
B)?！窘馕觥克膫€(gè)選項(xiàng)均為概括性比較強(qiáng)的短語(yǔ)，由此可以推測(cè)，本題考查的內(nèi)容很有可能是對(duì)話的主題。由metals，measuring weight，metric等詞推測(cè)，對(duì)話可能與金屬或其他某種事物的度量有關(guān)系。 女士說(shuō)她想問(wèn)男士幾個(gè)關(guān)于新度量衡的問(wèn)題(new official standard weight)，由此揭示對(duì)話談?wù)摰闹黝}是關(guān)于衡量重量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的單位。
23. What was the standard weight used to do?
A)。【解析】四個(gè)選項(xiàng)均為不定式，由此可以推測(cè)，本題考查的內(nèi)容可能是目的或行為。男士說(shuō)他們用新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)度量衡來(lái)檢測(cè)全國(guó)的天平(scales)，他們有責(zé)任利用它來(lái)確保所有的天平都能夠準(zhǔn)確地測(cè)量1公斤的重量(measure a kilogram accurately)。
24. Why was it necessary to replace the old standard weight?
C)?！窘馕觥克膫€(gè)選項(xiàng)均描述某件事物的缺點(diǎn)或問(wèn)題，由此可以推測(cè)，本題考查的內(nèi)容可能是某件事物的弊端。 男士說(shuō)舊天平會(huì)被取代是因?yàn)樗粔蚓珳?zhǔn)(imprecise)，制造材料低劣(made of poor quality metal)。故正確答案為C)。

Section B
Passage One
Jim Thorpe was an American Indian, born on May 28, 1888 in Oklahoma.(26) When he had his education at the Carlisle Indian School in Pennsylvania,his athletic coach considered him a splendid athlete and encouraged him to concentrate on sports. From then on, Thorpe participated in almost every aspect of athletics. Whenever he competed in any event, he easily won first place.
In the years that followed, he took part in football games against such renowned teams as Harvard and West Point. Thorpe again and again brought his team to victory. In 1912 he was invited to compete in the Olympic Games in Stockholm. There he excelled in several tack events and was presented with first place gold medals. He was the first athlete to capture first place awards in so many track events.
When Thorpe returned home from the Olympic Games,(27)he was welcomed with parades and celebration. The president called him the highest type of citizen.(28)However, this was all short-lived because it was found out that at one time Thorpe had been a professional athlete. Since an athlete must be an amateur in order to participate in the Olympic Games, Thorpe did not qualify. Therefore, all of his medals were taken away from him.
In later years, Thorpe played baseball and football professionally. His admirers often tried to have his medals returned to him, but in vain. Thorpe died a lonely man in California on May 28, 1953.Today, as always, many still believe Thorpe was the best athlete that ever lived.
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. Where was Thorpe's athletic talent discovered?
C)。【解析】四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是表示地點(diǎn)的狀語(yǔ)，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容可能跟某件事情發(fā)生的地點(diǎn)有關(guān)。
早在Thorpe還在Carlisle Indian School上學(xué)的時(shí)候(had his education at the Carlisle Indian School)，他的體育教練(athletic coach)就發(fā)現(xiàn)了他卓越的運(yùn)動(dòng)才能(splendid athlete)，并鼓勵(lì)他專(zhuān)心從事運(yùn)動(dòng)(concentrate on sports)。故正確答案為C)。
27. How did American people receive Thorpe when he came back from Stockholm in 1912?
B)?！窘馕觥克膫€(gè)選項(xiàng)都是They開(kāi)頭，都是對(duì)待某人的態(tài)度，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容可能是關(guān)于一些人怎么對(duì)待某個(gè)人的。 當(dāng)Thorpe 1912年從Stockholm回來(lái)的時(shí)候，美國(guó)人民為他舉行了游行(parades)和慶祝(celebration)。故正確答案為B)。
28. Why were Thorpe's medals taken away from him?
D)。【解析】四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是Because開(kāi)頭的，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于某件事情發(fā)生的原因。按照當(dāng)時(shí)的規(guī)則，參加奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)的運(yùn)動(dòng)員必須是業(yè)余選手(an amateur)，Thorpe曾經(jīng)是職業(yè)選手(professional athlete)，這并不符合規(guī)定，所以他的獎(jiǎng)牌被收回(taken away)。故正確答案為D)。
Passage Two
About three hundred words in the English language come from the names of people. Many of these words are technical words. When there is a new invention of discovery, a new word may be coined after the inventor or scientist.
It is interesting to observe how many common English words have found their way into the language from the names of people. For example, "sandwich", you may eat everyday. Lord Sandwich who lived from 1718 to 1792 used to sit at the gambling table eating slices of bread with meat in between. This kind of eating tastes delicious.(29)As the Lord was the only one among his friends who ate bread in that way, his friends began to call the"bread-Sandwich"for fun. Later on the word became part of the English language.
The word "boycott" means to refuse to have anything to do with somebody or something. This word is another example. The word comes from a man called Captain Boycott. He was a land agent in 1880 and he collected rents and taxes for an English landowner in Ireland.(30)But the Captain was a very harsh man. He treated his poor tenants very badly. His tenants decided not to speak to him at all. (31)Eventually word got back to the landowner and the Captain was removed. The word "boycott" became popular and was used by everyone to mean the kind of treatment that was received by Captain Boycott.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
29. Who coined the word "sandwich"?
【解析】C)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是關(guān)于人物的詞，由此可以推測(cè)，本題內(nèi)容與人物有關(guān)。 由于Lord Sandwich是他的朋友里面唯一一個(gè)那樣吃面包的人(only one among his friends who ate bread in that way)，他的朋友們開(kāi)始叫這種食物"bread-Sandwich"(Sandwich面包)?？梢?jiàn)最初使用sandwich這個(gè)詞的人是Lord Sandwich的朋友們。
30. What didn't the tenants like?
【解析】B)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中有兩個(gè)是不定式，有兩個(gè)是人物身份，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容可能與人物的態(tài)度有關(guān)系。佃農(nóng)們都不喜歡Boycott，因?yàn)樗麑?duì)待佃農(nóng)的態(tài)度很差(treated his poor tenants very badly)，佃農(nóng)們于是決定不和他說(shuō)話(not to speak to him)。故正確答案為B)。
31. What did the landowner do when he found out that the tenants were boycotting his agent?
【解析】A)。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是He開(kāi)頭描述某人的行動(dòng)，由此可以推測(cè)，本題的內(nèi)容是關(guān)于某個(gè)人采取的行動(dòng)。 當(dāng)?shù)刂靼l(fā)現(xiàn)佃農(nóng)抵制Captain Boycott后，地主就把他換掉了(the Captain was removed)，故正確答案為A)。
Passage Three
The family is changing.(32) In the past, grandparents, parents, and children used to live together, and they had an extended family. Sometimes two or more brothers with their wives and children were part of this large family group. But family structure is changing throughout the world. The nuclear family consists of only one father, one mother, and children; it is becoming the main family structure everywhere.
(33)The nuclear family offers married women some advantages: they have freedom from their relatives, and the husband does not have all the power of the family. Studies show that in nuclear families men and women usually make an equal number of decisions about family life.
But wives usually have to "pay" for the benefits of freedom and power. When women lived in extended families, sisters, grandparents, and aunts helped one another with housework and childcare. In addition, older women in a large family group had important positions. Wives in nuclear families do not often enjoy this benefit, and they have another disadvantage, too :(34)women generally live longer than their husbands, so older women from unclear families often have to live alone.
(35)Studies show that women are generally less satisfied with marriage than men are. In the past, men worked outside the home and women worked inside. Housework and childcare were a full-time job, and there was no time for anything else. Now women work outside and have more freedom than they did in the past, but they still have to do most of the housework. The women actually have two full time jobs, and they have not much free time.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. Who used to live together in an extended family?
