W: John's been looking after his mother in the hospital. She was injured in a car accident two weeks ago and still in critical condition.

M: Oh, that's terrible. And you know his father passed away last year.

Q: What do we learn about John?

答案：D. He has been having a hard time.

解析：根據(jù)聽力原文可知，“John's mother is in the hospital and his father died last year.”（約翰的母親出車禍住院了，父親兩年前也過世了）由此可見，John的近況還是蠻悲慘的；答案也就顯而易見了。

M: What a boring speaker! I can hardly stay awake.

W: Well, I don't know. In fact, I think it's been a long time since I've heard anyone is good.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

答案：D The woman thinks highly of the speaker

解析：根據(jù)聽力原文可知，男生覺得演講無趣，女生卻很淡定地說：外語學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)“其實(shí)我已經(jīng)很久沒有聽到那么好的發(fā)言了”。由此可見，女生對(duì)發(fā)言還是很肯定的。選項(xiàng)D中“thinks highly of”即“對(duì)…評(píng)價(jià)高”，故D是正確答案。

W: I'm having a lot of trouble with logic and it seems my professor can't explain it in a way that makes sense to me.

M: You know, there is a tutoring service on campus. I was about to drop statistics before they helped me out.

Q: What does the man mean?

答案：C.  The woman should seek help from tutoring services.

解析：首先女生說她邏輯學(xué)得很辛苦，接受不了老師的講課方式也理解不了課程內(nèi)容。

而后男生說學(xué)校有輔導(dǎo)班，他在參加之前幾乎要掛科了，輔導(dǎo)班幫了他大忙。言下之意是推薦女生也去上輔導(dǎo)班。

M: This is a stylish overcoat. I saw you wearing it last week, did't I?

W: Oh, that wasn't me. That was my sister Jill. She's in your class.

Q: What does the woman mean?

答案：C. Jill wore the overcoat last week.

解析：首先男生問女生上周是否穿過拉風(fēng)外套，然后女生說：“That was my sister Jill. She's in your class.”（那是我姐姐Jill，她和你同班）也就是說男生很有可能看到的那個(gè)穿著拉風(fēng)外套的人是女生的姐姐Jill。轉(zhuǎn)自:考試網(wǎng) - [Examw.Com]

M: Jane, suppose you lost all your money while taking a vacation overseas, what would you do?

W: Well, I guess I'd sell my watch or computer or do some odd jobs till I could afford a return plane ticket.

Q: What are the speakers talking about?

答案：B. An imaginary situation.

解析：根據(jù)原文錄音可知，對(duì)話開頭男生講到：“Jane, suppose you lost all your money while taking a vacation overseas, what would you do? ”這里的"suppose"表明“假定、料想”由此可見，兩人談?wù)摰氖且粋�(gè)虛擬場(chǎng)景。
