c指点迷津
听力中很容易遗忘重要信息，这就要求考生学会预测。考生先通观选项，猜测对话主题，这样听的时候可做到“有的放矢”。同时，考生要注意，如果在听力中碰到选项中的原句，一定要做相应标记，以方便回忆。
Conversation One
M: I got two letters this morning with job offers, one from the Polytechnic, and the other from the Language School in Pistoia, Italy.
W: 【19】So you are not sure which to go for?
M: 【19】That’s it. Of course, the conditions of work are very different: The Polytechnic is offering two瞴ear contract which could be renewed, but the language school is only offering a year’s contract, and that’s a different minus. It could be renewed, but you never know.
W: I see. So it’s much less secure. But you don’t need to think too much about steady jobs when you are only 23.
M: That’s true.
W: What about the salaries?
M: Well, the Pistoia job pays much better in the short term. I’ll be getting the equivalent of about ￡22,000 a year there, but only ￡20,000 at the Polytechnic. But then the hours are different. At the Polytechnic I’d have to do 35 hours a week, 20 teaching and 15 administration, whereas the Pistoia school is only asking for 30 hours teaching.
W: Mmm...
M: Then the type of teaching is so different. 【20】The Polytechnic is all adults and mostly preparation for exams like the Cambridge certificates. The Language School wants me to do a bit of exam preparation, but also quite a lot of work in companies and factories, and a couple of children’s classes. Oh, and a bit of literature teaching.
W: 【21】Well, that sounds much more varied and interesting. And I’d imagine you would be doing quite a lot of teaching outside the school, and moving around quite a bit.
M: Yes, whereas with the Polytechnic position, I’d be stuck in the school all day.
19.What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
A)He wants to sign a long瞭erm contract.
B)He is good at both language and literature.
C)He prefers teaching to administrative work.

20.What do we learn about the students at the Polytechnic?
A)They hate exams.
B)They all plan to study in Cambridge.
C)They are all adults.
D)They are going to work in companies.
20.C)选项关于某一类人。听力对话中间，对比了两个选择的优缺点。男士提到，在The Polytechnic，都是成年人。所以考生可判断C为正确答案。
21.What does the woman think of the job at the Language school?
A)Difficult but rewarding.
B)Varied and interesting.
C)Time瞔onsuming and tiring.
D)Demanding and frustrating.
21.B)根据上题，考生可推测选项使用形容词来修饰某一类工作。听力最后，男士提及在The Language School的工作内容，女士给出自己的评价：that sounds much more varied and interesting。因此选项B为正确答案。
Conversation Two

W: Good evening, Edward.

W: Edward, tell us what you know about Dean’s early life.

M: Well, first he acted in plays at high school, 【24】then he went to college in California where he got seriously into acting. In 1951 he moved to New York to do more stage acting.
W: Then when did his movie career really start?
M: 1955. His first starring role was in East of Eden. It was fabulous. Dean became a huge success. But the movie that really made him famous was his second one, Rebel Without a Cause, that was about teenagers who felt like they didn’t fit into society.
W: 【25】So how many more movies did he make?
M: Just one more, then he died in that car crash in California in 1955.
W: What a tragedy! He only made three movies! 【25】So what made him the legend he still is today?
M: Well I guess his looks, his acting ability, his short life, and maybe the type of character he played in his movies. Many young people saw him as a symbol of American youths.
22.What is the woman doing?
A)lnterviewing a movie star.
B)Discussing teenage role models.

C)He was best at acting in Hollywood tragedies.

Section B
c指点迷津：
听力篇章相对来说比较难，信息量比较大，篇幅也比较长。考生要特别注意，听力篇章的开始和结尾都是比较容易出题的地方，所以一开始就要集中注意力。

Passage Two
Juan Louis, a junior geology major, decided to give an informative speech about how earthquakes occur. 【30】From his audience and analysis he learned that only 2 or 3 of his classmates knew much of anything about geology. Juan realized then that he must present his speech at an elementary level and with a minimum of scientific language. As he prepared the speech, Juan kept asking himself, “How can I make this clear and meaningful to someone who knows nothing about earthquakes or geological principles?” Since he was speaking in the Midwest, 【31】he decided to begin by noting that the most severe earthquake in American history took place not in California or Alaska but at New Madrid, Missouri in 1811. If such an earthquake happened today, it would be felt from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean and would flatten most of the cities in the Mississippi valley. That, he figured, should get his classmates’ attention. Throughout the body of the speech, Juan dealt only with the basic mechanics of the earthquakes, carefully avoid technical terms. He also prepared visual aids, diagramming photo line, so his classmates wouldn’t get confused. To be absolutely safe, Juan asked his roommate, who was not a geology major, to listen to the speech. 【32】“Stop me,” he said, “any time I say something you don’t understand.” Juan’s roommate stopped him four times. And at each spot, Juan worked out a way to make his point more clearly. Finally, he had a speech that was interesting and perfectly understandable to his audience.

B)Most of them lacked interest in the subject.
C)Very few of them knew much about geology.

A)By reflecting on Americans’ previous failures in predicting earthquakes.
B)By noting where the most severe earthquake in U.S. history occurred.
C)By describing the destructive power of earthquakes.
D)By explaining some essential geological principles.
31.B)选项是关于某种方式。听力篇章接下来讲到这个演讲的开头，路易斯要用美国历史上发生过的最大的地震为例，引入自己的话题，这样会吸引大家的注意力。由此可判断，B为正确选项。
32.What did Juan ask his roommate to do when he was making his trial speech?
A)Interrupt him whenever he detected a mistake.
B) Focus on the accuracy of the language he used.
C)Stop him when he had difficulty understanding.
D)Write down any points where he could improve.
32.C)选项表示某种做法。听力篇章随后提及，胡安为了让自己的演讲简单易懂，就让同学来听自己的演讲，听不明白的时候打断他。因此，选项C为正确答案。
Passage Three
【33】Esperanto is an artificial language, designed to serve internationally as an auxiliary means of communication among speakers of different languages. It was created by Ludwig Lazar Zamenhof, a polish Jewish doctor specialized in eye diseases. Esperanto was first presented in 1887.An international movement was launched to promote its use. 【34】Despite arguments and disagreements, the movement has continued to flourish and has members in more than 80 countries. Esperanto is used internationally across language boundaries by at least 1 million people, particularly in specialized fields. It is used in personal contexts, on radio broadcasts and in a number of publications as well as in translations of both modern works and classics. Its popularity has spread from Europe, both east and west, to such countries as Brazil and Japan. 【35】It is, however, in China that Esperanto has had its greatest impact. It is taught in universities and used in many translations, often in scientific or technological works. EL POPOLA CHINIO, which means from people’s China, it’s a monthly magazine in Esperanto and it’s read worldwide. Radio Beijing’s Esperanto program is the most popular program in Esperanto in the world. Esperanto vocabulary is drawn primarily from Latin, the Roman’s languages, English and German. Spelling is completely regular. A simple and consistent set of endings indicates grammatical functions of words. Thus for example, every noun ends in “o”, every adjective in “a”, and basic form of every verb in “i”. Esperanto also has a highly productive system of constructing new words from old ones.
33.What does the speaker tell us about Esperanto?
A)It was invented by a group of language experts in the year of 1887.
B)It is a language that has its origin in ancient Polish.
C)It was created to promote economic globalization.
D)It is a tool of communication among speakers of different languages.

A)It aims to make Esperanto a working language in the U.K.
B)It has increased its popularity with the help of the media.
C)It has encountered increasingly tougher challenges.
D)It has supporters from many countries in the world.
34.D)选项是关于某个行为的目的。听力篇章中间，作者讲到，尽管有争议和反对，世界语还是流行开来，世界80多个国家都有自己的成员。从中可以看出，世界语有很多拥护者。
35.What does the speaker say about Esperanto in China?
A)It is used by a number of influential science journals.
B)It is widely taught at schools and in universities.
C)It has aroused the interest of many young learners.
D)It has had a greater impact than in any other country.
35.D)选项是关于it的使用范围，考生可推测it指代的是世界语。听力篇章接下来提到世界语在中国的情况。作者先提出一个观点：在中国的影响比在其他任何地方都要大。接下来作者举了很多例子，学校里教世界语，北京有世界语的广播电台等等。这些都是为了说明世界语在中国的影响。所以D为正确选项。
