　　【英語(yǔ)六級(jí)聽(tīng)力材料及答案】

　　For twenty-five years, I was a full-time thief, specializing in picking pockets. Where I come from in southeast London, that's an honorable profession. [32]Anyone can break in a house and steal things, but picking somebody's pocket takes skill. My sister and I were among the most successful pickpocket teams in London. We worked in hotel and theatre lobbies, airports, shopping centers and restaurants. Now we don't steal any more, but this crime is worldwide. Here's how to protect yourself. Professional pickpockets do not see victims-only handbags, jewels and money. [33]Mothers with babies, the elderly, and the disabled are all fair game. My preferred target was the lone female, handbag at her side-the right side to be exact. So if I'm next to her, I can reach it cautiously with my right hand across my body. Only about one woman in a thousand carries her bag on the left, and I tended to steer clear of them. Women whose bags are hanging in front of them are tricky for the pickpocket as there isn't a blind side. If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with handles rather than a strap. [34]For men, one of the best places to keep a wallet is in the back pocket of tight trousers.You'll feel any attempts to move it. Another good place is in the buttoned-up inside pocket of a jacket. There is just no way in. Even better, keep wallets attached to a cord or chain that is fastened to a belt. [35]A pickpocket needs targets who are relaxed and off-guard. The perfect setting is a clothing store. When customers wander among the racks they are completely absorbed in the items they hold up. The presence of a uniformed security guard is even better. A false sense of security makes a pickpocket's job much simpler.

　　Questions 1 to 4 are based on the passage you have just heard.

　　1. Why does the speaker say that picking somebody's pocket is an honorable profession in southeast London?

　　正確答案：A

　　解析：題目詢問(wèn)為什么作者說(shuō)在倫敦東南部，扒竊是一個(gè)光榮的職業(yè)。關(guān)鍵是要聽(tīng)到an honorable profession之后的那句話：“任何人都可以闖入一棟住宅偷東西，但是扒竊需要技術(shù)。”故答案為A。符合“聽(tīng)到什么選什么的”原則。

　　2. According to the speaker, who is most likely to become a victim of pickpockets?

　　正確答案：C

　　解析：題目詢問(wèn)根據(jù)作者所說(shuō)，誰(shuí)最有可能成為扒手的獵物。關(guān)鍵是要聽(tīng)到“帶著嬰兒的媽媽，上了年紀(jì)的人和殘疾人都是可以下手的對(duì)象。我更喜歡的目標(biāo)是沒(méi)有人陪伴的女性，手提包挎在側(cè)面——確切地說(shuō)，是挎在右側(cè)�！边@兩句話說(shuō)明了什么樣的人可能成為扒手的目標(biāo)，而第2句中的“preferred更喜歡的”說(shuō)明是最有可能的，故選C。

　　3. In the speaker's opinion, what's the best place for a man to keep his wallet?

　　正確答案：A

　　解析：題目詢問(wèn)根據(jù)作者的看法，男人放錢(qián)包的最佳位置是哪里。關(guān)鍵是要聽(tīng)到“對(duì)于男人來(lái)說(shuō)，緊身長(zhǎng)褲后面的口袋是放錢(qián)包的最佳位置之一。”故答案為A。作者說(shuō)放錢(qián)包的另一個(gè)好地方是上衣里面的口袋，而不是B(上衣頂部的口袋);C、D在文中均未提及。

　　4. What is the perfect setting for picking pockets according to the speaker?

　　正確答案：B

　　解析：題目詢問(wèn)根據(jù)作者所說(shuō)，扒竊的最佳地點(diǎn)是哪里。關(guān)鍵是要聽(tīng)到“一個(gè)扒手需要發(fā)現(xiàn)放松并且毫無(wú)警惕的目標(biāo)。最佳地點(diǎn)是服裝店。”故選B。
