this week.Q:What can be inferred about the woman?【解析】选 B。女士回答说事实上她这周一直忙着化学呢,即她还没有找到合作对象。A 和 C 项误解了 be tied up with的含义,分别将该短语理解为“喜欢”和“厌恶”;D 项是说太忙而没有时间学习化学,这与女士所说的“一直忙着学习化学”相矛盾,注 意 的 表 达 方 式。13.M:Make thirty copies for me and twenty copies for Mr.Brown.W:Certainly,Sir.As soon as I finish typing the lette匚Q:What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?【解析】选 C。对话中的copies和

years?Q:What can we say about the man?【解析】选 D。女士推测这是男士第一次登上军舰,男士用否定疑问句的形式对此予以了否定,说以前他就曾在海军服过兵役。即他之前就登上过军舰,故 D 为答案。15.W:How did your interview go?M:I couldn,t feel worse about it.The questions were very fair but I seemed to find no answers for all ofthem.Q:How does the man feel about the interview?【解析】选 B。I couldn,t feel worse about it指 I feel the

C。对话中的关键词是treat”款待;做东;请客”,男士说找不到自己的饭盒了,女士说没关系,我请你吃饭,选项 C 是女士回话的同义转述。A、B 与对话无关。D 是 借 treat 一词设置的干扰项。17.M:Wasn,t it terrific?W:Well,the music was enjoyable,but the story didn t make much sense to me.I still prefer traditionalDrama with strong characters and an exciting plot.Q:What does the woman think of the play?【解析】选 C。对话中男士问女士对戏剧的看法,女士说戏剧的音乐不错,但故事情节没意思,并补充说她喜欢人物塑造力强、情节生动的传统戏剧。由此推知她认为这部戏剧太现代派了,故

are based on the conversation you have just heard.22.What are the speakers discussing?【解析】选 B 0 对话围绕着交下一年的宿舍押金展开,接着女士说她在考虑搬出校园,由此引发了两人的讨论,因此整个对话主要是对话双方讨论下一年在哪居住的问题,因此答案选 B。23.What must a person do in
