C)在銀行兌現(xiàn)支票。 |
D) Find a parking meter. |
D) 找一個(gè)停車計(jì)費(fèi)器。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】選項(xiàng)均缺少主語,屬于細(xì)節(jié)題加轉(zhuǎn)折題型,預(yù)讀時(shí)無需關(guān)注句意,直接找相似場(chǎng)景即可,并且按照聽力短對(duì)話規(guī)律,重點(diǎn)仍然在女士話語當(dāng)中,典型的"轉(zhuǎn)折"出答案題型。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】由but后的money changer可知男生需要換零錢,可快速排除選項(xiàng)B (購物中心)和選項(xiàng)D (停車) 二個(gè)場(chǎng)景,答案應(yīng)在選項(xiàng)A、C當(dāng)中。C選項(xiàng)雖也和"錢"有關(guān),但對(duì)話中對(duì)該選項(xiàng)中的銀行只字未提,由此可知答案為選項(xiàng)A。
【原文及譯文】
M: Excuse me. Do you have change for a ten-dollar note? I need to pay the parking meter.
W: I'm sorry, but I think you can get it through the money changer in the shopping center across the street.
Q: What is the man trying to do?
男士:打擾一下,你能給我換開一張10美元的鈔票嗎?我需要支付停車費(fèi)。
女士:很抱歉,但我覺得你可以到馬路對(duì)面的購物中心里的貨幣兌換中換取零錢。
問題:男士要干什么?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】parking meter 停車計(jì)費(fèi)器;cash a check 支票兌現(xiàn);change n. 零錢

C) Promoting a new product. |
C) 促銷新產(chǎn)品。 |
D) Bargaining with a salesgirl. |
D) 與女售貨員討價(jià)還價(jià)。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)覽選項(xiàng),可發(fā)現(xiàn)均缺少主語,與11題一樣,屬于細(xì)節(jié)題加建議題型,直接尋找相似場(chǎng)景即可,可快速排除選項(xiàng)C,因?yàn)橹挥蠧選項(xiàng)是關(guān)于"出售"(促銷),而其它選項(xiàng)都和"購買"有關(guān);答案應(yīng)在選項(xiàng)A、B、D中。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】女士話語仍具有絕對(duì)指導(dǎo)意義,非常簡(jiǎn)單的建議考點(diǎn),竟然直接用到了suggest,其后必有答案,女生提到toy train和brand,加上男生說的school boy,可確定答案為選項(xiàng)B。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】A選項(xiàng)中的son是無中生有,切忌主觀猜測(cè)。選項(xiàng)D可在聽時(shí)排除,原文中并無任何涉及關(guān)于"還價(jià)"或具體金額的內(nèi)容。
【原文及譯文】
M: Can you recommend something that a school boy of 7 or 8 will really like?
W: I'd suggest this toy train, sir. It's an excellent brand. Very popular all over the world these days.
Q: What is the man doing?
男士:你能給我推薦一個(gè)七八歲學(xué)童真正喜歡的東西嗎?
女士:我給你推薦這款玩具火車。這是一個(gè)優(yōu)秀的品牌。在世界各地都非常受歡迎。
問題:男士正在做什么?

A) 拍照。 |
B) Enhancing images. |
B) 突顯形象。 |
C) Mending cameras. |
C) 修理相機(jī)。 |
D) Painting pictures. |
D) 畫畫。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】選項(xiàng)仍均缺少主語,屬于細(xì)節(jié)考查題。選項(xiàng)D與其他三項(xiàng)明顯不同,可初步排除。第一句由女士發(fā)出,需仔細(xì)聆聽,原文提到taking pictures(拍照),由此確定話題方向。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】女士說話中提到taking pictures,與選項(xiàng)A中的taking photographs一致,答案為A選項(xiàng)。
【原文及譯文】
W: Do you let people know when you're taking pictures of them?
M: I try not to. You know any picture of a person who poses for the camera would look dull and unnatural.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?
女士:你給人們拍照時(shí),會(huì)讓他們知道嗎?
男士:盡量不讓他們知道。你也知道一個(gè)人為拍照擺出的姿勢(shì)看起來呆滯、不自然。
問題:講話人在談?wù)撌裁?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】pose v. 擺姿勢(shì) n. 姿勢(shì),姿態(tài);enhance v. 提高,加強(qiáng);image n. 圖像,形象

B) He can provide little useful information. |
B) 他提供不了太多有用信息。 |
C) He will show the woman around Baltimore. |
C) 他將領(lǐng)女士參觀巴爾的摩。 |
D) He will ask someone else to help the woman. |
D) 他將找其他人來幫助女士。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】此題考查意義解釋題加轉(zhuǎn)折題型,此類題型答案多為"聽見什么不選什么"。本題需要對(duì)考生有一定的實(shí)力要求,屬于可"失分"的題目。關(guān)注動(dòng)詞 move to,provide,show around和ask。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】經(jīng)典轉(zhuǎn)折考法,直接用but定位答案即可,男生說自己當(dāng)時(shí)還很年輕,言下之意自己對(duì)當(dāng)?shù)厍闆r不夠了解。答案為B選項(xiàng)。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】根據(jù)四級(jí)聽力中短對(duì)話"尾詞錯(cuò)誤原則",即結(jié)尾內(nèi)容聽得越清楚越不能選,可順利排除A選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)C沒有提及。選項(xiàng)D與選項(xiàng)B為相似項(xiàng),其中應(yīng)有答案,男士并未主動(dòng)提出找人幫忙,故排除選項(xiàng)D。
【原文及譯文】
W: I need to talk to someone who knows Baltimore well. I'm told you lived there.
M: Oh, but I was really young at the time
Q: What does the man mean?
女士:我需要找個(gè)非常了解巴爾的摩的人。我聽說你曾在那里居住過。
男士:哦,但是我那時(shí)候太年輕了。
問題:男士是什么意思?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】show around 領(lǐng)......參觀
15. A) He is rather disappointed. |
A) 他非常失望。 |
B) He is highly ambitious. |
B) 他很有抱負(fù)。 |
C) He can't face up to the situation. |
C) 他不能面對(duì)處境。 |
D) He knows his own limitation. |
D) 他知道自己的不足。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)讀四個(gè)選項(xiàng)時(shí)只有B提到了"正面、積極"的方向,可初步排除。選項(xiàng)預(yù)讀較難,但本題屬于經(jīng)典轉(zhuǎn)折題型,關(guān)注相應(yīng)標(biāo)志詞即可。but出現(xiàn)表示"前否后肯",直接用but定位答案,就可選出正確選項(xiàng)。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】原文是"承擔(dān)責(zé)任前需要積累更多經(jīng)驗(yàn)",表明他知道自己的不足之處,與選項(xiàng)D同義。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】A選項(xiàng)中是rather,與原文的a little 不一致,可排除。C選項(xiàng)原文中未曾提及。
【原文及譯文】
W: Aren't you disappointed that you didn't get the promotion?
M: Maybe a little, but I know I need more experience before I'm ready for that kind of responsibility.
Q: What do we learn about the man from this conversation?
女士:你沒有被提升,不覺得失望嗎?
男士:可能有一點(diǎn),但我覺得承擔(dān)責(zé)任前需要積累更多經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
問題:從此對(duì)話可以得知男士的什么信息?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】disappointed a. 失望的;ambitious a. 有雄心的;promotion n. 晉升;responsibility n. 責(zé)任

C) Her gym exercise has yielded good results. |
C) 她的健身鍛煉取得了很好的效果。 |
D) Her effort to keep fit is really praiseworthy. |
D) 她努力健身的做法值得稱贊。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)讀四個(gè)選項(xiàng),可知選項(xiàng)A與其他三項(xiàng)明顯不同,可初步排除。選項(xiàng)B、C都是關(guān)于鍛煉效果極佳的表達(dá),按照慣例其中應(yīng)該有答案。本題為意義解釋題,同義替換是答案。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】男士提到y(tǒng)our effort has paid off,這與選項(xiàng)C中的has yielded good results一致,故選擇C項(xiàng)。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】男士贊揚(yáng)女士身材好,但未曾提到她以此聞名,B選項(xiàng)可排除。男士也未稱贊她的作法,故排除選項(xiàng)D。
【原文及譯文】
W: I've been working out the gym since January. I was a bit out of shape.
M: You look terrific. It seems that your effort has paid off.
Q: What does the man imply about the woman?
女士:我從一月份一直在健身房鍛煉。我之前都有些走形了。
男士:現(xiàn)在你看起來很棒?磥砟愕呐]有白費(fèi)。
問題:男士暗示女士什么?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】gym n. 健身房;yield v. 產(chǎn)生;keep fit 保持體型;work out 體育鍛煉;out of shape 走形,走樣;pay off 得到好結(jié)果
17. A) Female students are unfit for studying physics. |
A) 女學(xué)生不適合學(xué)習(xí)物理。 |
B) He can serve as the woman's tutor. |
B) 他可以擔(dān)當(dāng)女士的家庭教師。 |

C) 在學(xué)校,物理是一門很重要的學(xué)科。 |
D) The professor's suggestion is constructive. |
D) 教授的建議是有建設(shè)性的。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】本題選項(xiàng)預(yù)讀最難,找不出明顯的相反或相似選項(xiàng),聽前可暫時(shí)確定兩組方向。選項(xiàng)A、C與物理有關(guān),選項(xiàng)B、D是導(dǎo)師的建議,待場(chǎng)景明確后再排除。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】首句用到suggest,接著說到tutor,場(chǎng)景明確,和選項(xiàng)B、D有關(guān),排除選項(xiàng)A、C。首句Professor Clark suggested I get a tutor for advanced physics,可知答案為選項(xiàng)D。
【原文及譯文】
W: Professor Clark suggested I get a tutor for advanced physics.
M: Well, that might help. Advanced physics is a pretty difficult course.
Q: What does the man mean?
女士:克拉克教授建議我得為高等物理找個(gè)家庭教師。
男士:嗯,那可能有幫助。高等物理確實(shí)是一門比較難的科目。
問題:男士的意思是什么?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】tutor n. 家庭教師;constructive a. 有益的,建設(shè)性的
18. A) Indifferent. |
A) 漠不關(guān)心的。 |
B) Doubtful. |
B) 懷疑的。 |
C) Pleased. |
C) 高興的。 |
D) Surprised. |
D) 驚奇的。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)讀時(shí)可排除唯一的"積極"選項(xiàng)C。本題為加了"弦外之音" 意義解釋題,同義替換是答案,此類題有較少的明顯的語言點(diǎn)可以指示答案,難度較大。聽音時(shí)關(guān)注說話者的語氣。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】女士所謂的好消息是談話的兩個(gè)人都沒有被炒魷魚。男士卻既不興奮,也沒有表示懷疑,所以輕易排除選項(xiàng)B、C。因?yàn)樗呀?jīng)有點(diǎn)厭倦這份工作了,甚至想到要去辭職。與選項(xiàng)A意義相符。
【原文及譯文】
W: Bill, have you heard the latest news? It appears we two won't be laid off after all.
M: Oh, I'm somewhat tired of working here. I've been wondering whether I should resign.Anyway, the news seems to be good for you.
Q: How does the man feel about the news?
女士:比爾,知道最新消息嗎?好像我倆都沒有被炒魷魚。
男士:哦,我在這兒工作有些厭煩了,我一直在考慮我是否應(yīng)該辭職。無論如何,這個(gè)消息對(duì)你來說是個(gè)好事。
問題:男士對(duì)新聞是怎么看的?
【詞匯點(diǎn)撥】indifferent a. 漠不關(guān)心的;doubtful a. 持懷疑態(tài)度的;lay off 解雇;resign v.辭職;be tired of ... 對(duì)......厭倦
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. A) He prefers the smaller evening classes. |
A) 他更喜歡晚上的小班課程。 |
B) He has signed up for a day course. |
B) 他已經(jīng)報(bào)名參加白天課程。 |
C) He has to work during the day. |
C) 他白天上班。 |
D) He finds the evening course cheaper. |
D) 他發(fā)現(xiàn)晚上課程更便宜。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)覽選項(xiàng),選項(xiàng)A、D討論evening class,選項(xiàng)B講述day course,立刻可推測(cè)此長對(duì)話與課程有關(guān),且該課程有day class和evening class之分。從這四個(gè)選項(xiàng)暗含的意義推測(cè),男士應(yīng)偏重于evening class,可初步推測(cè),此題考查男士選擇evening class的原因。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】原文中男士明確說明it would have to be an evening course since I work during the day,關(guān)鍵詞在于since,正所謂"因果必考",選項(xiàng)C與原文相符。
20. A) Learn a computer language. |
A) 學(xué)習(xí)一門計(jì)算機(jī)語言。 |
B) Learn data processing. |
B) 學(xué)習(xí)數(shù)據(jù)處理。 |
C) Buy some computer software. |
C) 買一些電腦軟件。 |
D) Buy a few course books. |
D) 買一些課本。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】行為動(dòng)作考查題,根據(jù)19題推測(cè),本對(duì)話涉及報(bào)班,由本題四個(gè)選項(xiàng)可知,所報(bào)課程與電腦有關(guān),因?yàn)榍叭?xiàng)均與computer有關(guān)?芍x項(xiàng)D與其他三項(xiàng)明顯不同,可初步排除。本題也為一細(xì)節(jié)題,在聽力過程中,應(yīng)適時(shí)記錄相關(guān)信息。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】女士先提到了Have you taken any courses in data processing,在其后緊跟著又對(duì)其進(jìn)行了解釋data processing is a course you have to take before you can take computer programming。對(duì)于data processing在對(duì)話中重復(fù)出現(xiàn),且與問題相符,故選擇B選項(xiàng)。
21. A) Thursday evening, from 7:00 to 9:45. |
A) 周四晚,7點(diǎn)至9點(diǎn)45分。 |
B) From September 1 to New Year's eve. |
B) 從9月1號(hào)至新年前夕。 |
C) Every Monday, lasting for 12 weeks. |
C) 每周一,持續(xù)12周。 |
D) Three hours a week, 45 hours in total. |
D) 一星期三小時(shí),總共45小時(shí)。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】由選項(xiàng)即可知本題考查數(shù)字的細(xì)節(jié)題,且考查的數(shù)字為持續(xù)的時(shí)間,初步推測(cè)為某一課程所持續(xù)的時(shí)間。所以如在聽力過程中涉及數(shù)字都要作筆記,且應(yīng)注意數(shù)字的上下文場(chǎng)景。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】對(duì)該問題的回答,信息較分散,最初提到了every Monday, from 7 to 9:45。接下來在let me see停頓之后出現(xiàn)答案12 weeks,from September 1 to Christmas eve. 整合以上信息,應(yīng)選C。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】選項(xiàng)A錯(cuò)在Thursday evening,原文中明確給出應(yīng)該是Monday evening。選項(xiàng)B中的New Year's eve也是偷梁換柱,應(yīng)為Christmas eve。選項(xiàng)D涉及小計(jì)算,每晚3小時(shí),持續(xù)12周,應(yīng)大約總共36小時(shí)才正確。
22. A) What to bring for registration. |
A) 登記時(shí)需要帶什么。 |
B) Where to attend the class. |
B) 到哪里去上課。 |
C) How he can get to Frost Hall. |
C) 去弗羅斯特大廳怎么走。 |
D) Whether he can use a check. |
D) 他是否能用支票。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】根據(jù)"前二后二必考"原則,本題又為本對(duì)話的最后一題,此題必在文章后面出題。由四選項(xiàng)的形式可初步推測(cè),本題考查的是問題的內(nèi)容。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】本題的問題直截了當(dāng),在原文中男士給出了明確的提問,Is there anything that I should bring with me? 與選項(xiàng)A同義。
【干擾項(xiàng)分析】許多考生按照常理或主觀臆測(cè)選定選項(xiàng)B,此項(xiàng)在原文中恰恰沒有提到。原文中男士也明確表明I know how to get there,選項(xiàng)C是多余的。文中雖提到checkbook,是女士對(duì)男士問題的回答,而非男士的發(fā)問,故排除。
【原文及譯文】

【聽音指導(dǎo)】本題為本長對(duì)話的第一題,出題點(diǎn)必在對(duì)話開始,由選項(xiàng)可知,本題涉及職業(yè),對(duì)于職業(yè)的考查也是前幾年四級(jí)考試的重點(diǎn)。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】男士在文中明確提及trading in financial markets,根據(jù)同義推斷原理,可推斷該男士的職業(yè)是financial trader.
24. A) He can save on living expenses. |
A) 他可以節(jié)省生活費(fèi)用。 |
B) He considers cooking creative. |
B) 他認(rèn)為烹飪是具有創(chuàng)新性的。 |
C) He can enjoy healthier food. |
C) 他喜歡健康食物。 |
D) He thinks take-away is tasteless. |
D) 他覺得外帶食品不好吃。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】預(yù)覽選項(xiàng),可知選項(xiàng)A與其他三項(xiàng)明顯不同,可初步排除。本題與食物或烹飪有關(guān)。所以在聽音過程中,如提及cooking或food,應(yīng)多加注意,適時(shí)記錄。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】 聽音過程中聽到此句I always cook a meal rather than have a take-away,即可知答案就在附近,接下來的一句To do something my brain will regard as creative中,出現(xiàn)了關(guān)鍵詞creative,選項(xiàng)B與之相符,故選擇B選項(xiàng)。
25. A) It is something inevitable. |
A) 是某種不可避免的事情。 |
B) It is frustrating sometimes. |
B) 有時(shí)候令人沮喪。 |
C) It takes patience to manage. |
C) 它需要耐心來管理。 |
D) It can be a good thing. |
D) 它可能是件好事。 |
【聽音指導(dǎo)】本題是細(xì)節(jié)加評(píng)論題,關(guān)鍵要弄清楚各選項(xiàng)中it所指代的內(nèi)容。本文出現(xiàn)頻率最多的詞是stress,可大膽推測(cè),此題考查的是對(duì)stress的評(píng)述。本題又是此長對(duì)話的最后一題,答案應(yīng)在聽力對(duì)話的后兩句。
【正確項(xiàng)分析】I do actually enjoy an element of uncertainty. 只要抓住此句中的一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞uncertainty,此題便可輕易而解,選項(xiàng)A正確。
【原文及譯文】
W: So, why exactly does your job have a reputation for being stressful?
M: Stress is generally driven by the feeling of being out of control of a situation and the feeling of a situation controlling you. Trading in financial markets combines both.
W: How do you relax in the evening?
M: I very rarely do anything work-related so it's easy to escape the markets. I generally go to the gym or go for a run, especially if I've had a bad day. I always cook a meal rather than have a take-away. To do something my brain would regard as creative.
W: Do you think what you do for relaxation is an effective way to beat stress?
M: I don't think there is a specific rule about how to beat stress. I generally find out what I do is effective for me.
W: Would you consider changing your job because of the high stress factor?
M: I have considered leaving my job due to stress-related factors. However, I do think that an element of stress is a good thing, and if used the right way, it can actually be a positive thing.
W: What do you enjoy about the stressful aspects of your job?
M: Having said all that, I do actually enjoy an element of uncertainty. I enjoy a mental challenge. Trading generates a wide range of emotions second by second. How you deal with and manage those emotions dictates short, medium and long term trading performance and success.
23: What is the man's job?
24: Why does the man prefer to cook a meal rather than have a take-away?
25: What does the man say about an element of stress in his job?
女士:那么,到底為什么你的工作以緊張出名呢?
男士:當(dāng)人們束手無策或感覺被控制時(shí),就會(huì)有壓力感。金融市場(chǎng)上的交易正是這兩者的結(jié)合。
女士:你晚上如何放松?
男士:我很少做與工作有關(guān)的事情,所以很容易逃脫市場(chǎng)。我通常去健身房或是出去跑步。尤其是在我感覺某天很糟糕的時(shí)候,更是如此。我總是做飯,而不是叫外賣。做點(diǎn)兒有創(chuàng)意的事。
女士:你認(rèn)為你放松自己的方法對(duì)消除壓力有效嗎?
男士:消除壓力沒有特定的法寶?偟膩碚f,我發(fā)現(xiàn)我所做的一切對(duì)我來說都是有效的。
女士:你是否因壓力大而考慮換工作呢?
男士:因?yàn)閴毫Φ囊蛩匚以紤]過離開我的工作。但是,我認(rèn)為壓力是一件好事。如果運(yùn)用得當(dāng),壓力實(shí)際上是有益的。
女士:你喜歡工作中的哪些壓力?
男士:說了這么多,我的確喜歡不確定因素。我喜歡挑戰(zhàn)。交易會(huì)在瞬間產(chǎn)生一系列大范圍的情緒波動(dòng)。你如何處理及管理這些情緒支配著中短期及長期交易業(yè)績(jī)和成功。
23:男士的工作是什么?
24:為什么男士喜歡做飯,而不是叫外賣?
25:關(guān)于工作中的壓力感,男士說了什么?
