onA1.W:Hello,CustomersService.WhatcanIdoforyouM:Icalledtocomplainaboutthedeliveryofmyorderlastweek,butIhaven’tgotanyreplyyet.Q:Whatdidthemancomplainaboutlastweek【答案】C。事实细节题。此题询问男士上周投诉过的问题。从男士的话“我上周曾经致电你们投诉有关我的订单的送货情况”，可知本题应选择与对话原文一致的C项Thedeliveryofhisorder(他的订单的送货情况）。2.M:Iamabitworriedabouttomorrow’sinterview.W:Don’tbeupset.Youarealwaysverygood!Q:Whatisthemanworriedabout【答案】B。事实细节题。本题询问男士担心什么。男士一开头就说他“担心明天的面试”，只要抓住关键词interview即可发现B项Takinganinterview.(要去面试）为本题答案。3.W:Manypeoplearecomplainingaboutthatrestaurant.Thefoodisexpensiveandisn’tgood.M:Isometimesgothereforlunch.Afterall,it’sthenearestonefromouroffice.Q:Whydoesthemansometimesgotoeatintherestaurant【答案】C。细节推断题。本题询问男士去那家餐厅就餐的原因。根据男士所说“毕竟那儿离我们的办公室最近。”可确认本题应选择与对话意思相近的C项Itisclosetohisoffice.(离他的办公室很近），C项中的close和对话原文中的near是近义词。4.W:Mr.Smith,howshallwedeliveryourgoods,seaorbyairM:Well,Ipreferdeliveringthembytrain.Q:Howdoesthemanlikethegoodstobedelivered【答案】C。事实细节题。本题询问男士想要选择什么送货方式。对话中男士说的deliveringbytrain(通过火车）明他选择的送货途径应该是C项Bytrain。5.W:Sorry.Allsingleroomshavebeenbooked.Weonlyhavedoubleroomsavailable.M:ThenI’llhavetwodoubleroomsforthreenights.Q:Whatisthemandoing【答案】D。推理判断。由对话中双方提到的singlerooms(单人间），doublerooms(双人间）等可以推断本题与预订酒店房间有关，此时可以判断男士在做的就是D项Bookinghotelrooms(预订酒店房间）。SectionBConversationOneM:Hello,Ms.Li.Ihavegoodnewsforyou.W:GoodnewsWhatisitM:Yourshoesatthetradefairhaveimpressedus.We’rethinkingofplacinganorderwithyou.W:That’sgreat!WhattypeofshoesareyouinterestedinM:Sportsshoes,particularlytheshoesforkids.W:OK.willemailyouthelatestpricelistrightnow.M:That’sfine.W:Bytheway,ifyourorderislargeenough,youcanhaveadiscount.M:Thankyou.isthemanlikelytodo6．【答案】D。事实细节题。题目询问男士将可能做什么。对于这个问题，男士在对话中提到了“我们想要下订单”，D项Placeanorderwiththewoman与此内容对应，为本题答案。7.Whatwillthewomansendtotheman【答案】B事实细节题。题目询问女士将要给男士发送什么。女士在对话中说到“我马上把最新报价单通过电子邮件发给您”，其中的“报价单”与B项的pricelist对应，故B项为正确答案。ConversationTwoW:Hi,thisisroom566.M:Yes,Madam.HowcanIhelpyouW:CouldyoubookataxiformetotheairporttomorrowmorningM:Sure.WhattimedoyouwantthetaxiW:Myflightisat8:30.WhattimedoyouthinkIshouldleaveM:7:00o’clock.Ittakesonly30minutesfromourhoteltotheairport.W:Thenbookataxiat7forme,please.M:Alright.Thebookingwillbemaderightaway.W:ThankyouAndpleasemakesurethetaxiarrivesby7.M:Noproblem.We’lltakecareofthatdidtheconversationmostlikelytakeplace【答案】A场景推断题。本题询问对话最可能发生在哪里。对话一开头女士所说的房号Room566就透露了对话发生在酒店住客和前台之间，即发生在酒店里，可见本题答案应为A项atahotel。didthewomanmakethecall【答案】B。事实细节题。题目询问女士为什么打电话。女士一开头报完房号后，马上就提到了她致电前台的目的，“预订明早去机场的出租车”,B项Tobookataxi(预订出租车）为本题答案。10.Atwhattimewasthewomanmostlikelytoleavethehotelthenextmorning【答案】C。细节推断题。题目询问女士明早最可能几点钟离开酒店。对话中提到了几个时间点，女士的航班是8:30,从酒店去机场只需30分钟，所以前台建议女士7点从酒店出发就可以了，而女士也听从这个建议，决定7点搭乘出租车离开酒店，可见，本题应选A项By7:00。SectionCAninterviewersometimesstartswithanopen-endedquestionlike“Couldyoutellmesomethingaboutyourself”Itisawaytobreaktheiceandmakeyoufeelcomfortableduringtheinterview.Itisalsoawayfortheinterviewertoknowmoreaboutyourpersonalitytohelphimorhertodecideifyouareagoodfitforthejob.Itisnotagoodideatotalktoomuchaboutyourselfbecausetheinterviewerdoesn'twanttoknoweverythingaboutyou.Butontheotherhand,tellingtoolittlecanmakehimorherwonderwhyyouaren’tmoreopen.Soit’sagoodideatosharesomepersonalinterests.Theseinterestsmaynotelatetoyourwork.11.comfortablelittle14.personalintereststoSectionDGoodafternoon,LadiesandGentlemen!Welcometoourcompany,FamilyDollar.TodayI’llfirstgiveyouabriefintroductionaboutourcompany.ThenI’lldiscusswithyouwhatjobsareavailableatpresentandhowtoapplyforthem.FamilyDollarisachainofstoresthatoperatewithintheUnitedStates.Ourmainproductsareclothing,fooditems,andhouseholdproducts.Wehavebeeninbusinessformorethan50yearsandbecomealargecompany.Wearealwayslookingfortalentedyoungpeople,withrelatedworkingexperiencetojoinourteam.YoumaywonderwheretofindjobopeningsatFamilyDollar.Themostobviousplaceisourwebsite.Ifyouareinterested,youcanvisitourwebsiteandmakeyourapplicationonline.16．【答案】abriefintroduction/anintroductionabout。题目询问说话人一开始要谈什么。短文开头说话人就点明了I’llfirstgiveyouabriefintroduction，故空格可根据录音直接填人abriefintroduction或概括为anintroduction。17．【答案】fooditems。题目询问公司的主要产品有哪些。抓住空格前后的clothing和householdproducts去听原文，在上下文就能听到答案fooditems。18．【答案】Over50years。题目询问该公司已开业多久。题目的howlong提示答案应该是表示“多久”的一个数字。原文提到的数字就只有一个morethan50years，可见此处应填入50。19．【答案】website。题目询问在哪里可以找到有关“家庭财富”公司的职位空缺的信息。题目的问题也是说话人自己提出的问题（Youmaywonderwhereto...)，他在提出了这个问题之后自问自答，马上提供了答案：Themostobviousplaceisourwebsite.表明在其“网站”就能找到相关信息，因此，空格处应填人website—词。20．【答案】online/onthewebsite/onitswebsite。题目询问申请工作职位的途径。短文末尾提到makeyourapplicationonline,故空格可根据录音直接填入online—词，或者表达相近意思的onthewebsite或onitswebsite。PartⅡSectionA21．【答案】C。本题考查分词作状语的用法。本题开头提到的investigation(调查）和主句当中提到的“委员会发表事故原因的报告”存在着时间的先后顺序，一般来说，要先调查，才能下结论发表报告，因此，状语的分词应为现在完成式，表示“调查”发生在前，可见本题答案为C项Havingcompleted。22．【答案】D。本题考査sufferfrom...的词组搭配。当suffer用作不及物动词的时候，一般只和介词from搭配，构成固定词组sufferfrom...，意为“遭受……”。23．【答案】A。本题考査引出让步状语从句的连词用法。本题四个选项都可用于引出让步状语从句，其中A项however意为“无论怎么……”，表示程度，其后一般为形容词或副词。本题空格后的challenging为形容词，因此A项however正确。24．【答案】D。本题考査倒装句的用法。only放在句子开头会引起句子的主谓倒装，only引起的倒装句为半倒装句，即助动词与主语的倒装，符合这个规律的有B项hasheleft和C项heleft,再
