[考点]细节题。对话最后建议女士下一次再有演讲的时候可以找他一起练习,把他当观众。A项正确。
【听力原文】
M: Hi, Sarah, what’s up?
W: Oh, hi. I just got out of a history class. I had to give a presentation.
M: How did it go?
W: Terribly. I’m sure I made a fool of myself.
M: why? Weren’t you prepared?
W: No, it’s not that. [1] I just get so embarrassed and nervous whenever I’ve to speak in front of a group of people. I stand up and my face gets red and then I get even more nervous because I know everybody can see me blushing.
M: It’s not so bad to blush.
W: But it happens all the time. If the professor asks a question and I know the answer, I’ll blush like crazy if he calls on me. Doesn’t that ever happen to you?
M: No, not really. [2] Maybe you should forget about the people. Look at something else in the room, like the exit sign.
W: I guess I could try that. But I doubt it will help.
M: You know we talked about this in psychology class. Blushing, even though it is involuntary, is more or less a learned behavior.
W: What do you mean?
M: [3] Oh, children hardly ever blush at all. And, among adults, supposedly women blush more than men.
W: I wonder why.
M: I don’t know why either. [4] Why don’t you use me as your audience when you’ve got an oral presentation in class next time?
W: Good idea. Thank you. Well, I’ve got to get going for my next class. I’ll talk to you later.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
1. What was the woman’s problem?
2. Why might looking at the exit sign help the woman?
3. What does the man say about children?
4. What does the man suggest the woman do?

    答案:C
    解析:
    第三段提到她在遭到丈夫的殴打之后失去了还未出生的孩子。因此她只有一个孩子。选项A错误。第二段提及她没有得到过高工资的工作,并不意味着她没有工作。选项B错误。第三段提到她失去孩子之后,她的丈夫进了监狱。因此,选项C正确。最后一段提到她得到了社会上的很多帮助,还进了大学。所以,选项D错误。

  • 第6题:

    单选题
    Andrea's tendency to ______ her skill as a driver was more than genuinely irritating; it was hard to take such claims seriously from someone who has had her license suspended twice.
    A

    boast of, humorous

    B

    brag about, infuriating

    C

    deny, amusing

    D

    declaim, apathetic

    E

    defend, unproductive


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    因为Andrea的驾驶执照已经被吊销两次了,可知她开车的技巧一定不好,所以第二空的意思一定和“可疑的”意思相似,第一个空应是“吹嘘”的意思。boast“自吹自擂”;humorous“幽默的;可笑的”。

  • 第7题:

    C

    inspire her to find out another way to solve her problem

    D

    help her forgot some unpleasant things earlier that day


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    从第二段最后爸爸说的话“There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can’t get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another.”,由此可知爸爸带作者去教堂塔楼顶是为了使他明白解决事情的方法不只一条,一条行不通可以尝试另一条,故C项为正确答案。

  • 第9题:

    单选题
    Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A

    Throwing away a toy from her kids is an act worth following.

    B

    Kids should be encouraged to do things independently.

    C

    A mother who cries often before kids may lead to dependence of her kids.

    D

    A mother should not expose her depression too much in front of her kids.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    是非题。选项A的内容出现在第一段最后一句,该句只是举例说明母亲的行为对孩子性格的形成起重要作用,并未指出该行为的对与错,以及是否值得其他母亲的效仿,因此选项A不符。

  • 第10题:

    B

    Nightingale began to learn nursing when she was 24.

    C

    Nightingale’s efforts to reorganize the hospitals were welcomed by both the doctors and the injured soldiers.

    D

    Nightingale received all her education from her father.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    细节题。文章第六段尾句提到,经过九年医学护理的学习,南丁格尔在33岁时开始从事看护工作。由此可知,她在24岁时开始学习护理,选项B与之相符。由第四段尾句可知,南丁格尔并不是家中唯一的孩子,她还有一个妹妹,故A项错误。尾段首句提到,南丁格尔的奉献得到病人的感激,却遭到男医生们的憎恨,故C项错误。由第四段倒数第二句可知,南丁格尔的家庭教师教会了她音乐和绘画,故D项错误。因此本题答案为B项。

  • 第11题:

    单选题
    Kaia gave her presentation on Renaissance thinkers dressed as Copernicus.
    A

    gave her presentation on Renaissance thinkers dressed as Copernicus

    B

    dressed as Copernicus to give her presentation on Renaissance thinkers

    C

    dressed as Copernicus and her presentation Renaissance thinkers was given

    D

    gave her presentation dressed as Copernicus on Renaissance thinkers

    E

    dressed as Copernicus giving her presentation on Renaissance thinkers


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    原句修饰语使用位置不正确,会产生文艺复兴的思想家穿成哥白尼的样子而不是Kaia穿成哥白尼的样子。C因为使用了过去式造成句子不连贯且句意模糊。D中另一个修饰短语位置不正确on Renaissance thinkers应紧跟presentation之后。E修饰语用错,会产生哥白尼在给Kaia介绍有关文艺复兴思想家的错误意思。

    第(29)题答案

    A.continue
    B.remember
    C.start
    D.try

    答案:A
    解析:
    【考情点拨】理解推断题。【应试指导】本句意为:当你的孩子长大一些了.要继续跟她说话。前文已提到要跟你的孩子说话,所以continue继续,符合句意。其他几个动词虽然都可以接动词的-ing形式,但不符合本句的意思。故选A。

    A.she was afraid of being laughed at
    B.the priest asked her not to do so
    C.her husband was a nice guy
    D.she was not well-educated

    答案:A
    解析:
    从第二段可知,她没有受过什么教育,也从来没有过像样的工作。她的思想还是比较封闭的。因此她认为向警察、法院以及妇女避难所寻求帮助是件羞耻的事。

    A.Do not beat the kid any more
    B.Learn to take care of the family
    C.Leave me and my children
    D.Be a good father

    答案:C
    解析:
    见这篇短文涉及家庭暴力的问题。第一段讲到Laura结婚六个月了。她丈夫吸毒。她不希望自己的儿子或者未出世的孩子过这样生活。她很害怕她的丈夫,不敢直接撵她的丈夫出门,只好给她的丈夫留了一张字条。由此判断,字条上写的是要求她的丈夫离开这个家。

  • 第17题:

    Lisa was running late.Lisa,25,had a lot to do at work,plus visitors on the way:her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs,she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn′t been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
    Several yards away,Frank,43,and his girlfriend,Jennifer,found a spot close to where the front of the.train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
    But when he heard the scream,followed by someone yelling,"Oh,my God,she fell in!"Frank didn′t hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!Not you!"his girlfriend screamed after him.
    She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa,he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
    It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
    Lisa thought she′d been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn′t,and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
    Police and fire officials soon arrived,and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,"she explained.

    How did Frank save Lisa?

    A.By lifting her to the platform.
    B.By helping her rise to her feet.
    C.By pulling her along the ground.
    D.By dragging her away from the edge.

    答案:A
