四級標準聽力測試模擬五Section A答案解析

字號:

Section A
    11. M: I know I ought to call home, but I’ve got a plane to take and I may be late.
    W: But it only takes a minute.
    Q: What does the woman suggest the man do?
    【解析】選[D]。女士所說的But it only takes a minute意為“但是(給家里)打個電話只需一分鐘”,標明她建議男士現(xiàn)在就打電話,故選[D]。
    12. W: Why didn’t you go to the dancing party last night?
    M: If I’d remembered to check the mailbox, I might have found your note.  
    Q: What does the man imply?
    【解析】選[D]。女士問男士為什么沒有參加昨晚的舞會,男士說如果他記著查看郵箱,也許他會發(fā)現(xiàn)女士的留言(note)。這是虛擬語氣表假設(shè),實際上男士沒查看郵箱,所以不知道有舞會,也沒去參加舞會,選項[D] 符合題意。選項[C]的錯誤在于他根本就沒有查看郵箱,而不是沒有發(fā)現(xiàn)留言。
    13. M: Are you going to run for Student Union VP this year?
    W: I would, but it eats up a lot of my time. If no one runs, I might, but let’s hope someone does.
    Q: What will the woman probably do?
    【解析】選[A]。run for指“競選”;VP是“Vice President(副主席)”的縮寫;eat up指“耗費,耗盡”。
    14. M: I need to go across town, but the traffic is so heavy this time of day.
    W: When you take the subway, you don’t have to deal with traffic. I never drive any more.
    Q: What are the two speakers talking about?
    【解析】選[C]。the traffic is so heavy、take the subway、deal with traffic構(gòu)成了“談?wù)撊绾螒?yīng)付交通擁擠”的特定場景。
    15. W: Did your pictures of the night view come out like you expected?
    M: Actually, I ran out of film before I could even begin. I didn’t realize I’d finished the roll.
    Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
    【解析】選[D]。根據(jù)對話中run out of film...可知膠卷已經(jīng)用完,沒法拍照片了,[A]、[C]兩項與此意矛盾,故錯誤;對話中男士提到I didn’t realize I’d finished the roll.這只是對上一句話起到補充說明的作用。關(guān)鍵的信息在上一句話中。另外,view一詞在這里只是表示景色,不表示場景(scene),因此沒提到play,故[B]項錯誤。
    16. M: John must be joking when he said he planned to sell his shop to go to university.
    W: Don’t be too sure. I don’t know how many times he has told me he wished study some profession instead of going into business.
    Q: What does the woman mean?
    【解析】選[B]。男士說John打算賣了商店去上大學(xué),一定在開玩笑。女士說別那么肯定,John已經(jīng)對她說了很多遍他希望學(xué)習(xí)專業(yè)的知識而不是經(jīng)商。這里的don’t be sure是否定男士的must be joking,即你可別那么肯定John是開玩笑的,意思是她相信John有可能要賣他的商店,選項[B] 符合題意。
