Nor is it something that could be remedied by some supernatural power. It is rather an(28)and final act for which there is no remedy on earth or in heaven. A species once extinct is gone forever. However many generations(29)us in coming centuries, none of them will ever see this species that we extinguish.

答案解析

1.C.。未听先知:选项中restaurant出现了两次,A.“饭店每天都有特别供应”、B.“饭店以食品多样而闻名”和C.“拌沙拉的调料使这道菜十分诱人”都在描述饭店好的一面,故推测本题考查内容与饭店哪方面比较出色有关,而D.“女士应该将原料进行充分搅拌”与其他三个选项内容明显不属于一类,故基本可以提前排除。详解女士发现这家饭店的沙拉多种多样,请男士给她推荐点特别的,男士向她推荐了混拌沙拉,因为这道菜的调料是用浆果制作而成。由此可知,是特殊的调料使得这款沙拉与众不同。

2.B.。未听先知:四个选项均以He开头,由A.“他从Mary那里接手公司”、B.“他正在经营很成功的生意”和D.“他正在建立一家新的咨询公司”可以猜测,对话内容与男士经营公司有关,C.“他没能预见到一些重大问题”属于男士失败的原因,而其他三个选项均为描述一般事实的陈述句,故基本可以提前排除C。

详解:女士说她前几天碰到了Mary,从Mary那里听说男士的新咨询公司现在很成功,男士说他的生意发展得比他们预想得要好,现在已经有多于两百名客户了。由此可知,目前男士的生意相当成功。

3.C.。未听先知:选项中出现了supplies一词,A.“应该安排人员专门负责办公用品”、B.“男士可以把光盘放在公司的柜子里”、C.“男士应该能在柜子里找到办公用品”和D.“办公室的打印机没纸了”四个选项的语义相互交错,围绕着办公用品、光盘、纸张、柜子展开,听对话时应注意捕捉这几者之间的相互联系。

详解:对话中男士问女士是否知道光盘和打印纸放在哪儿了,女士说如果还有的话,应该都放在柜子里了,因为所有的办公用品都放在那里。由此可知,女士的意思是男士应该能在柜子里找到他所需要的办公用品。

4.A。未读先知:由四个选项中的glass(es)和dictionary可以判断对话内容与阅读词典和眼镜有关,结合A“他必须用放大镜才能看清楚”和B.“女士可以用他的眼镜来阅读”两个选项的意思可以大致判断,对话中的两个人需要借助某种工具才能进行阅读,而C和D.两个选项可以说明他们看不清楚的可能是词典的内容。

详解:对话中女士对男士说词典里的字太小了,她根本就看不清楚那些释义,男士说他要去拿放大镜,没有放大镜,他也无法看清楚。由此可知,男士得用放大镜才能看清楚。

5.A。未听先知:选项均为以v-ing形式开头构成的名词性短语,由A.“重新装修她的办公室”和D.“为办公室增加点家具”可以推断,对话内容与办公室的家具和装修有关;B.“主修室内装修专业”和C.“寻找专业建议”也与之相关,由A.中的her判定,听录音时需要特别关注与女士有关的信息。

详解:女士对男士说她正考虑重新装修办公室,家具旧了,墙上的漆也开始脱落了,男士说他可以把他弟妹的电话给女士,因为他弟妹毕业于室内装修学院,可以给女士免费进行评估。由此可知,女士正在考虑的事情是重新装修办公室。

6.D.。未听先知:四个选项均为名词性短语,由选项A.“港口管理问题”、B.“港口设施的改善”、C.“货运物品延期”和D.“集装箱船匮乏”可以看出,这些选项都提到了港口所面临的一些问题,因此听对话时对此类信息要特别关注。

详解:对话中女士对男士说她们有一大批货物需要运走,但怎么也找不到集装箱船只,男士表示在这个港口,此类问题一直存在,港口的设施根本满足不了人们的需求。由此可知,两人讨论的是港口缺乏集装箱船只的问题。

7.B.。未听先知:四个选项都很简短,为四个名词短语,且内容各不相同,通常出现此类选项时,考查内容一般围绕对话的主旨大意展开。

详解:对话中女士奇怪为什么Rod没有涨工资,男士说那是因为老板觉得他的工作态度有问题,老板说她看到Rob在咖啡机边的时间比在办公桌前办公的时间还要多。由此可知,对话中的两人正在讨论他们的同事Rod。

8.C.。未听先知:四个选项均为动词短语,可以推断本题考查的是某人的动作行为,结合选项A.“向酒店经理打电话求助”、B.“把事项日期延后”、C.“换个地方举办宴会”和D.“请专家来改正问题”可以推断,应该是某件事情出了差错或是变故,因此本题考查的内容与人们采取的应对措施有关。

详解:对话中女士对男士说酒店打来电话,说由于日程安排出了问题,他们不能承接宴会了,男士马上说他知道在High Street有一家印度餐馆,可以为团体客户提供特殊待遇,那里的食物很棒,房间也足够大。由此可知,男士的言外之意是说他们可以把宴会的地点改在他所推荐的印度餐馆。

9.What do we learn about the man’s daily life?

B.。详解:四个选项均以He开头,且均使用了一般现在时,可以推测本题考查内容与男士的日常生活有关。由各选项A.“他分担一些家务职责”、B.“他经常回家很晚,赶不上吃晚饭”、C.“他偶尔会为家人做饭”和D.“他有时会与朋友外出就餐”可以看出,本题的重点是男士通常是怎样解决晚餐的。其中,A.与其他三个选项的内容有较大差异,可以提前排除。对话中男士与女士见面时,男士告诉女士他正要回家,Susan正在家里等他回去吃晚餐,他不能总像平日里那样老是赶不上吃晚餐。for a change表达的意思是“改变一下”,既然男士今天要按时回家与家人一起共进晚餐,也就可以推测出他大多数时候是不按时回家吃晚餐的。

10.Why did the woman come to see the man?

D.。详解:四个选项均为动词不定式结构,此类选项通常表示本题考查的内容为即将发生的行为动作或某种动作的目的,A.“带他去吃晚餐”与B.“谈论一项预算计划”、C.“讨论一个紧急问题”以及D.“告知一个重要信息”这三个选项的内容明显不属于一类,可以预先排除。对话中女士说她很抱歉在周五的这个时间来找男士,但她的事情非常重要,而没有提到“问题”,因此排除C.,显然女士来找男士的目的就是要告诉男士一件重要的事情。

11.What makes the woman worry about the Indian Rupee?

D.。详解:四个选项都与商业行为相关,而且两次提到了India,可以判断对话内容涉及印度的商业或经济,选项均为对印度经济进行负面描述的句子,但内容各不相同,无法进行排除或断定本题所考查的重点,听对话时就需要对所有涉及到印度经济的内容多加留意。对话中女士明确告诉男士印度的收支平衡赤字急剧升高。

12.What does the mail say about most people when they get into love affairs?

A.。详解:四个选项均以They开头,根据选项A.“他们对自己的另一半有着不切实际的期待”、B.“他们或许没有准备好形成一种相伴一生的关系”、C.“他们对生活有了更为现实的认识”和D.“他们想要适应自己角色的转变”可以判断,选项中的they指的就是普通大众,本题考查的是人们对爱情或者婚姻、家庭的看法。对话中女士问男士为什么爱情不能永葆活力,男士说人们陷入恋爱关系时,往往都对对方抱有一种不切实际的期待,如果对方与自己想象得不一样,则希望对方能够为自己而改变.坦实际上,人们很难真正改变。

13.What does the mail say about himself as a singer OH the road most of his life?

D.。详解:四个选项均以He开头,A.“他很幸运,能够去很多新奇的地方”、B.“他能够忘记生活中的烦恼”、C.“他能够认识很多有趣的人”和D.“他很幸运,能够做自己喜欢的事情”,四个选项都是在描述男士的美好生活,可以判断对话中一定讲述了男士幸福的一面,听对话时对此类信息要特别注意。对话中女士问男士,他已经62岁了,还经常到处走动,是什么吸引他一直上路,男士毫不犹豫地说是音乐促使他前行,能够做自己真正热爱的事情的人是幸运的,他们能够触碰到生活的极致。由此可见,男士所做的正是他自己喜欢的事情。

14.What do most people think of the life of a famous musician?

C.。详解:四个选项均为简单的主系表结构,四个形容词是关键,选项所给信息过少,无法判断本题考查内容,但听录音时,对与这些形容词有关联的内容都要注意捕捉。对话中女士问男士人们最容易对知名音乐家所产生的错误概念是什么,男士明确地说,人们认为知名音乐家的生活只有光辉,这是不对的。生活对于他们并不比对待普通人更加仁慈。

15.How does the mall feel whenever he is recognized by his fans?

B.。详解:四个选项均为单个形容词,有正面的,也有负面的,选项所给信息过少,无法判断本题考查内容,但听录音时,对与这些形容词有关联的内容都要注意捕捉。对话中女士问男士走到哪儿都会被人认出来的感觉如何,男士说,按说他应该已经习惯了这种感觉,但事实是,他依然感觉十分惊异。他举了一个例子,他曾经去过一个日本小镇,那里的人根本不会说英语,但却一下子就认出他了,还知道他的音乐。fascinating和amazed的意思相似,都表示“惊异,惊喜”。

16.What should team members do to fully realize their potential?’

B.。详解:四个选项均为以动词原形开头的句子结构,可以判断本题考查的是行为动作。A.“保持传统的组织文化”、B.“学习新的关联方式,共同协作”、C.“紧跟技术的快速发展”和D.“学会尊重企业等级制度”均为现代企业中员工所应该做的事情,听录音时注意判断文章当中提到的是哪一点。短文中说,虽然团队当中可能有些人的确非常博学,但他们也应该学会与团队中的其他人员共同协作,形成良好的合作关系,一起解决问题。

17.What needs to be considered for effective team management?

A.。详解:四个选项均为疑问词开头的陈述句语序的句子,因此可以判断问题中一定包含某种结构,这些选项均可以充当该词或该表达的宾语。结合选项A.“团队该怎样与它的服务对象相融合”、B.“该怎样建设团队才能改善团队表现”、C.”团队中应该纳入什么样的员工”和D.“团队中的成员应该具有怎样的素质”可以推测,本题考查应该怎样进行团队建设。短文中提到,问题不仅在于应该怎样让团队更高效地工作,还应该让团队与他所服务的公司或社会融合在一起。

18.What conclusion Can we draw from what Casey says?

D.。详解:四个选项的意思分别为A.“团队经理必须设立清晰且较高的目标”、B.“团队必须包含有不同文化背景的队员”、C.“团队成员应该知识丰富,并富有创造性”和D.“团队经理应该具备某些特定的技能”,其中有两项都提到了团队经理,可以初步判断本题考查的内容极有可能与团队经理所应该具备的素质或是其所应该承担的责任有关。短文中提到按照Casey的看法,如果团队经理能够展示出他所提到的各种素质,整个团队就能够更好地发挥潜力,实现目标。也就是说,团队经理应该具备某些特定的素质。

19.Wath do we learn about Mosaic?

D.。详解:四个选项均以It开头,意思分别为A.“它是Illinois大学提供的分享教学观点的平台”

B.“它主要用于科学家和技术人员之间的文字信息传递”、C.“它刚开始时是一个很成功的软件,但没能持续很久”和D.“这一程序允许人们通过网络共享信息”,由此可以判断,It一定是某种技术形式,更有可能是某种软件或平台,本题考查内容与It的功能有关。短文一开始就提到,Mark和他的朋友开发了Mosaic,它可以允许人们通过网络在全世界范围内共享信息。

20.What did Andreessen do upon arriving in Silicon Valley?

B.。详解:选项均以He开头,A.“他拜访了一批著名的计算机科学家”、B.“他与一位名为Jim Clark的企业家碰了面”、C.“他卖掉了朋友们开发的软件”和D.“他投资了一项领先的计算机生意”都是对He行为动作的描述,听录音时应注意捕捉与He的行为动作相关的信息。短文中说Andreessen一到硅谷,首先就与硅谷的著名企业家Jim Clark进行了会面。

21.Why were venture capitalists willing to join in Clark’s investment?

A.。详解:四个选项均以They开头,A.“他们对他的新想法充满信心”、B.“他们相信他的计算机专业知识”、C.“他们对新科技十分狂热”、D.“他们相信他的业务关系”都是在表述“他们”对于“他”的看法.听录音时首先要确定的是They和he分别指代的是什么人,才能正确判断他们之间的关联。短文最后一部分说,Clark不仅自己投了资,还为Andreessen找了风险投资家,他们之所以愿意为Andreessen投资,主要是因为他们热衷于Clark的新想法。

22.What is probably the best form of advertising according to the speaker?

C.。详解:选项均为名词短语,A.、B.、C.三个选项描述的都是广告类型,D.虽然没有出现advertising一词,但“分发免费试用品”也是广告推销的一种形式,可以判定本题考查内容与广告形式有关。短文开头处提到,最好的广告形式就是臼口相传,也就是人们会把自己认为不错的产品或服务推荐给朋友。

23.What does the speaker say is purpose of many organizations’using prestige advertising?

B.。详解:选项均为不定式短语,通常不定式短语所表达的是目的、打算或是即将发生的行为动作,由各选项意思:A.“销售特定商品”、B.“树立声誉”、C.“推广特定服务”和D.“吸引高端客户”可以推测,本题考查内容与广告的目的有关。短文中提到很多机构通过广告公司进行宣传,并不一定是想要销售产品,更多的是想树立企业或公司的良好声誉。

24.How do large companies generally handle their advertising?

A.。详解:四个选项均为以By开头的介词短语,介词by通常表示某种方式或手段,由各选项的意思:

A.“使用大型广告公司的服务”、B.“雇用自己的专业广告人员”、C.“在行业领先的报纸上购买广告空间”和D.“制作自己的广告”可知,本题考查的是通过何种手段进行广告活动。短文中提到,虽然对于大公司来说,建立自己的广告部门、自己撰写广告方案、购买媒体空间都不是多么困难的事情,但他们还是倾向于借助大型广告公司所提供的服务来做广告。

25.What would advertising agencies often do before a national campaign?

D.。详解:四个选项均为动词原形开头的句子结构,可以判定本题考查的是行为动作,由B.选项中的survey和D.选项中的,ads可以推测,本题考查内容与真正投放广告前的行为有关。短文最后提到,广告公司在向全国投放广告之前,通常会先小范围地在报纸、电视等渠道上进行测试,也就是说,他们会在特定的地区进行广告试验。

l。详解:空格位于不定冠词an和名词concept之间,应该填入以元音发音开头的形容词作定语,修饰名词concept。第一句提到物种灭绝是一个不容易理解的概念,而在下文提到,它与杀死那些可以再重生的单个生命形式不同,也就是说, 它是一个永远无法逆转的概念。eternal意为“永远的,永恒的”。

shing。详解:空格所在句和后面两句构成了排比句式,说明了extinction这一概念的独特性。空格所在句为倒装句,充当句子的表语,由于空格后有名词,因此,填入的词需要和名词numbers一起构成名词性短语。由句意可知,灭绝不仅仅是数字的减少。diminish意为“减少,减小”。

te。详解:空格位于连词and之前,需要填入一个形容词,与final形成并列关系,一起来修饰名词act。物种的灭绝是永远的消失,绝对不会再出现。absolute意为“绝对的”。

d。详解:空格位于状语从句中的谓语部分,由于前面的主语为复数,主句时态为一般将来时,因此,空格内填人动词的一般现在时。由空格后的in coming centuries可知,此处要表达的意思是:不管在我们之后还有多少代人会继续生存,都不会再看到那些已经灭绝的物种了。succeed意为“接替,继承”。

a vast scale。详解:空格所在句不缺少句子主要成分,因此,应填入副词或副词短语,充当句子的状语。上一段提到了灭绝,本段提到了人类对自然资源的浪费和破坏,这些都是大范围的行为。on a vast scale意为“大面积的,大范围的”。

31.As regards。详解:空格与其后的名词短语basic natural resources不是句子主干的一部分,因此需要填人介词,构成介词短语。上一句说到了人类对天空、大地和空气的污染,本句则提到了自然资源。As regards意为“至于,关于”。注意空格位于句首,As首字母需要大写。

up。详解:空格位于句子的谓语部分,与are…being连在一起构成现在进行时的被动语态,表示“正在被……”,因此应该填入动词或动词词组。由but we are also rtfinin9可知,此处要表达的意思是:我们正在以疯狂的速度和手段将自然界中不可再生的资源消耗殆尽。used up意为“用光,消耗光”。注意使用动词的过去分词形式。

ing。详解:空格前有两个动名词processing,consuming,由and确认这三个词应该是并列关系,因此也填入动词的一ing形式。这里要表达的意思是:人类正在处理、消耗、丢弃珍贵的资源。disposing意为“处理,扔掉”。

cation。详解:空格位于形容词cultural之后,应该填入名词,与cultural形成名词短语后,再通过OI?与historical change形成并列关系。与change“变化”相对应的词为modification。modification意为“修改,改变”。

ude。详解:空格位于介词0f之后,应该填入名词,充当介词的宾语。空格所在句要表达的意思是:人类正在经历的变革十分重大,不仅是简单的历史变迁或是文化变更,而是地理、生物以及心理等各种秩序的重大变革。magnitude意为“重要性。重要程度”。
