答案解析
Section A(1-8)
1. W: I’m going to give up playing chess. I lost again today.
M: Just because you lost? Is that any reason to quit?
Q: What does the man imply?
【答案解析】A 男士說(shuō),僅僅因?yàn)槟爿斄?那能算是放棄的理由嗎?顯然,帶有責(zé)備與不贊同之意。再結(jié)合女士所說(shuō)的“我打算放棄下棋”可知,男士不贊同女士放棄下棋。A選項(xiàng)是對(duì)男士話語(yǔ)的合理推斷,因此正確。
2. M: Do you know Sally’s new address? She’s got some mail here, and I’d like to forward it to her.
W: Well, we’ve not been in touch for quite a while. Let’s see. Mary should know it.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【答案解析】D 由女士說(shuō)的“我們已經(jīng)有一段時(shí)間不聯(lián)系了”可知,她不知道Sally的新地址,隨后女士又補(bǔ)充道“Mary應(yīng)該知道”,即Mary可能知道Sally的新地址。D選項(xiàng)是對(duì)女士話語(yǔ)的同義轉(zhuǎn)述,因此正確。
3. W: I missed classes this morning. Could you please lend me your notes?
M: My notes? You’ve never seen my handwriting, have you?
Q: What does the man imply?
【答案解析】B 男士以“你從未看懂過(guò)我寫(xiě)的字,不是嗎?”來(lái)回應(yīng)女士“能把你的筆記借給我嗎?”這一請(qǐng)求,言下之意是男士認(rèn)為女士看不懂他寫(xiě)的筆記。B選項(xiàng)是對(duì)男士話語(yǔ)的合理推斷,因此正確。
4. M: I’m taking my girlfriend to the fancy new restaurant for her birthday tonight.
W: I went there last weekend, I found it rather disappointing.
Q: What does the woman mean?
【答案解析】D 女士說(shuō)“我覺(jué)得那家餐廳非常令人失望”,結(jié)合男士所說(shuō)的“我要帶女朋友去那家新開(kāi)的高級(jí)餐廳”這一語(yǔ)境可知,男士和女士談?wù)摰氖峭患也蛷d,即女士覺(jué)得該餐廳不怎么樣。而女士這樣告知男士,是希望他換一家餐廳就餐。D選項(xiàng)是對(duì)女士話語(yǔ)的合理推斷,因此正確。
5. W: Winter is over at last. Time to put away my gloves and boots.
M: I’ve been waiting for this for months.
Q: What does the man mean?
【答案解析】C 女士說(shuō)“冬天終于結(jié)束了”,男士回應(yīng)道“我這幾個(gè)月都在等這一時(shí)刻的到來(lái)”。由這一語(yǔ)境推知,男士口中的“這一時(shí)刻”即“冬天終于結(jié)束了”,也就是說(shuō)男士盼望春天的到來(lái)。C選項(xiàng)是對(duì)男士話語(yǔ)的合理推斷,因此正確。
6. W: Thank you for bringing the books back.
M: I thought you’d need them over the weekend. Many thanks for letting me use them.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
【答案解析】C 女士感謝男士將書(shū)送回,男士以“非常感謝你讓我使用這些書(shū)”回應(yīng)。由此可知,女士將書(shū)借給了男士,男士很感謝她的幫助。C選項(xiàng)是對(duì)對(duì)話內(nèi)容的合理推斷,因此正確。
7. W:Are you working flexible hours?
M:No, I’m not. The weather today is so nice, so I decided to walk to work, and that meant I had to leave an hour earlier than usual.
Q:What did the man decide to do?
【答案解析】B 男士說(shuō)“因?yàn)榻裉斓奶鞖夂芎,所以我決定走路上班”。本句中的“決定”與題干中的decide對(duì)應(yīng),B選項(xiàng)是對(duì)話內(nèi)容的同義轉(zhuǎn)述,因此正確。男士是說(shuō)“l(fā)eave an hour earlier than usual(比平時(shí)提早一個(gè)小時(shí)出發(fā))”,并非提早Start work,C選項(xiàng)為細(xì)節(jié)干擾。
8. W: Our plane has been circling for a long time. Why the delay?
M: The airport was closed for a while this morning, and things are still not back to normal.
Q: What does the man mean?
【答案解析】A 男士說(shuō)機(jī)場(chǎng)出現(xiàn)了狀況,因此暫時(shí)關(guān)閉。結(jié)合女士所說(shuō)的“我們的飛機(jī)已經(jīng)盤(pán)旋一陣子了,為什么遲遲不降落?”可知,飛機(jī)遲遲無(wú)法降落正是由機(jī)場(chǎng)的暫時(shí)關(guān)閉所致,而飛機(jī)的起落屬于airport’s operation(機(jī)場(chǎng)運(yùn)營(yíng))范疇。A選項(xiàng)是對(duì)對(duì)話內(nèi)容的合理推斷,因此正確。
Section C
Looking at the basic biological systems, the world is not doing very well. Yet economic indicators show the world is prospering. Despite a slow start at the beginning of the eighties, global economic output increased by more than a fifth during the decade. The economy grew, trade increased, and millions of new jobs were created. How can biological indicators show the opposite of economic indicators?
The answer is that the economic indicators have a basic fault: they show no difference between resource uses that sustain progress and those uses that will hurt it. The main measure of economic progress is the gross national product (GNP). In simple terms, this totals the value of all goods and services produced and subtracts loss in value of factories and equipment. Developed a half?century ago, GNP helped establish a common way among countries of measuring change in economic output. For some time, this seemed to work reasonably well, but serious weaknesses are now appearing. As indicated earlier, GNP includes loss in value of factories and equipment, but it does not take into account the loss of natural resources, including non?renewable resources such as oil or renewable resources such as forests.
This basic fault can produce a misleading sense of national economic health. According to GNP, for example, countries that overcut forests actually do better than those that preserve their forests. The trees cut down are counted as income but no subtraction is made for using up the forests.
26.【答案解析】prospering 空格位于省略引導(dǎo)詞that的賓語(yǔ)從句中。從句的主語(yǔ)是the world,空格可能填入現(xiàn)在分詞(短語(yǔ))或過(guò)去分詞(短語(yǔ)),與is構(gòu)成復(fù)合謂語(yǔ);也可能填名詞、形容詞、介詞短語(yǔ)、動(dòng)詞不定式(短語(yǔ))等,構(gòu)成系表結(jié)構(gòu)。由連詞Yet可知,本句與第一句為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。而第一句使用了現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí),故空格填分詞(短語(yǔ))構(gòu)成復(fù)合謂語(yǔ)的可能性更大。
27.【答案解析】decade Despite引導(dǎo)的讓步狀語(yǔ)中出現(xiàn)了表時(shí)間的eighties,且the前是通常用于表時(shí)間的during,由此推測(cè)空格處所填詞很可能是表示時(shí)間的名詞性質(zhì)的詞(組)。
28.【答案解析】opposite 空格位于該句的賓語(yǔ)部分,由于空格前為定冠詞the,空格后為介詞of,可以判定空格處應(yīng)填入具有名詞性質(zhì)的詞(組)。
29.【答案解析】sustain that引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句,修飾resource uses。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,從句缺少謂語(yǔ),既然先行詞resource uses為復(fù)數(shù),考慮到主謂一致原則和文章的主時(shí)態(tài)為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí),空格處應(yīng)填動(dòng)詞(詞組)的原形。
30.【答案解析】In simple terms 該句主干結(jié)構(gòu)完整,本空填入的詞(組)應(yīng)作狀語(yǔ)或插入語(yǔ)。其形式可以是副詞(短語(yǔ))、介詞短語(yǔ)、動(dòng)詞不定式(短語(yǔ))、分詞(短語(yǔ))等。
31.【答案解析】establish 空格前為謂語(yǔ)helped,空格后為名詞短語(yǔ)a common way;而help (to) do sth.為固定搭配,故空格處很可能填入(省略to的)動(dòng)詞不定式。
32.【答案解析】reasonably 空格所在句的主干結(jié)構(gòu)完整,空前為不及物動(dòng)詞work,空后的副詞well作狀語(yǔ),修飾work,故空格處填入副詞(短語(yǔ))作狀語(yǔ),修飾work或well。
33.【答案解析】take into account 根據(jù)空格前的助動(dòng)詞does not可以確定,空格處應(yīng)填入動(dòng)詞(詞組)的原形。
34.【答案解析】misleading 空格前為不定冠詞a,空格后為名詞sense,空格處應(yīng)作定語(yǔ),修飾該名詞?梢蕴钊朊~(動(dòng)名詞)、形容詞、現(xiàn)在分詞等形式。
35.【答案解析】using up 空格所在句的主語(yǔ)為no subtraction,謂語(yǔ)為is made,for the forests作狀語(yǔ)。鑒于空格前為介詞for,空格后為名詞the forests,空格處應(yīng)填入動(dòng)名詞(組)。
