Section B

　　Passage One

　　【聽力原文】

　　Good afternoon. I'm Celia Kim, housing director here at the university. [ 16] I'm visiting all the dormitories this week to inform students about check-out procedures. I know you have a lot on your minds with finals coming up, but there are a few things you need to be aware of as you prepare to leave for vacation. This dormitory will be closed during the summer months and will reopen on September 1st. You must vacate your room by June 3rd. Even if you're registered for classes during the summer, you must leave this dorm by June 3rd. If this poses a problem for you, you should contact my office as soon as possible. You should remember to turn in your room key before you leave. Failure to return your key can result in a 20-dollar fine. [17 ] You must also make sure that all of your personal property has been cleared out of your room. [18] I'll be passing out a form for you to fill out concerning the condition of your room. You should report on the form any damage to your room which has occurred over the last year, such as holes in the room's walls, doors, windows or cabinets. That way, our summer maintenance crew will know where to make repairs before the next school year starts. If you have any questions during the next few days, please ask your resident advisors or call my office. Now please take one of the forms as they are passed around.

　　16. What does the speaker mainly discuss?

　　17. Before leaving their dorm rooms, what must the students do?

　　18. What must students report on the forms?

　　16.D

　　【解題思路】四項(xiàng)均為名詞短語，相互之間關(guān)聯(lián)度不高，且該題目為此段短文的第一題，因此很可能考查短文的主旨。

　　【解析】講話者在開頭就進(jìn)行了自我介紹，表明自已是“housing director here atthe university(大學(xué)的住宿主管)，其講話內(nèi)容也圍繞學(xué)生宿舍在暑期的各項(xiàng)管理規(guī)定展開，可見該短文的主旨是暑期前的各項(xiàng)退宿手續(xù)，故選D。check-out意為“離開房間;退房結(jié)賬”，其反義短語為“check-in(辦理入住;登記，報(bào)到)”。

　　17.C

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均以動(dòng)詞原形開頭(register，repair，remove，call)。

　　2.三項(xiàng)屬于學(xué)生可能需要做的事情(register for summer school，remove personal property，call the housing office)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查學(xué)生需要做的事情，應(yīng)留意與動(dòng)作有關(guān)的信息。

　　【解析】本題是問學(xué)生在離開宿舍前必須要做的事情。housing director重點(diǎn)強(qiáng)調(diào)了三件事情：一是學(xué)生必須在6月3日之前搬離宿舍，如有困難，需與宿管部門聯(lián)系;二是學(xué)生在離校之前要交出鑰匙;三是要確保將自己的個(gè)人財(cái)物帶出自己的房間。沒有選項(xiàng)提及搬離或交鑰匙的事情，故正確答案只能是C。

　　18.B

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均為名詞性短語。

　　2.兩項(xiàng)含有與假期有關(guān)的詞匯(summer addresses，leave)，分別涉及地點(diǎn)和時(shí)間。

　　結(jié)論：應(yīng)注意聽與假期有關(guān)的名詞，可能是需要聽眾提供某種信息。

　　【解析】本題是問學(xué)生在表格里應(yīng)該填寫什么信息。講話者提到，學(xué)生需要填寫一個(gè)關(guān)于房間狀況的表格，寫明在過去的一年當(dāng)中房屋設(shè)施有哪些損壞，比如墻、門、窗、柜子等等。故選B。

　　Passage Two

　　【聽力原文】

　　Good evening. I am doctor Winkle, saying hello to you from the school radio station. Do you have trouble sleeping at night? Tossing and turning in your bed can be a very painful experience. Then maybe this is for you.

　　[ 19 ] When you worry about needing sleep and twisting around, trying to find a comfortable position, you're probably only making matters worse. What happens is that your heart rate actually increases, making it more difficult to relax. You may also have some bad habits that contribute to the problem.[20] Do you rest frequently during the day? Do you get virtually no exercise, or do you exercise strenuously late in the day?

　　Do you think about sleeping a lot or sleeping late on weekends? Any or all of these factors might be leading to your insomnia by disrupting your body's natural rhythm. What should you do then on those sleepless nights? [21 ] Don't bother with sleeping pills. They can actually cause worse insomnia later. The best thing to do is to drink milk or eat cheese or tuna fish. They are all rich in the amino acid that helps produce in the brain a neurotransmitter that induces sleep. This neurotransmitter will help you relax, and you'll be on the way to get a good night's sleep. Until tomorrow's broadcast, this has been another in the series "Hints for Good Health" by Doctor Winkle.

　　19. What happens when you turn and twist to get comfortable?

　　20. What sometimes causes people to have trouble sleeping?

　　21. What does the speaker say about sleeping pills?

　　19.B

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均為句子。

　　2.三項(xiàng)含有與睡眠、休息有關(guān)詞匯(relax，sleep，sleeping)。

　　3.四項(xiàng)均提及第二人稱(your，you)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查對(duì)睡眠情況的描述，從句式來看，可能是談到某種影響。

　　【解析】短文在開始部分提到，如果擔(dān)心自己難以入睡，一直輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè)試圖找一個(gè)舒服的姿勢(shì)的話，你很可能只會(huì)使情況更糟，因?yàn)檫@時(shí)候心率會(huì)加快，從而使人更難以放松、入睡，故選B：

　　20.C

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均為名詞短語。

　　2.兩項(xiàng)含有與缺少有關(guān)的詞匯(failure，lack)。

　　3.三項(xiàng)含有與睡眠、休息有關(guān)的詞匯(rest，sleep，goingto beD.。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能是問什么因素會(huì)導(dǎo)致失眠。

　　【解析】短文提到，“可能還有其他一些不好的習(xí)慣會(huì)導(dǎo)致失眠。你白天是不是經(jīng)常休息?你是不是一點(diǎn)都不鍛煉?抑或是你很晚的時(shí)候還做劇烈運(yùn)動(dòng)?你周末的時(shí)候是不是想多睡一會(huì)或睡懶覺?其中任何一個(gè)因素或者所有這些因素都可能導(dǎo)致失眠，因?yàn)樗鼈儠?huì)打亂你身體的自然節(jié)奏�！睂⒏鬟x項(xiàng)中的敘述與短文提及的內(nèi)容比對(duì)即可得出正確選項(xiàng)為c。D(睡前吃奶酪)在后文中雖有提及，但卻屬于有助于睡眠的做法。

　　21.A

　　【解題思路】

　　1.三項(xiàng)以they開頭，需先判定they的指代對(duì)象。

　　2.三項(xiàng)含有與產(chǎn)生影響有關(guān)的動(dòng)詞(cause，help，make)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查某種東西會(huì)產(chǎn)生何種影響。

　　【解析】題干問講話者(即溫克爾博士)對(duì)于安眠藥持怎樣的觀點(diǎn)。溫克爾博士提到：“當(dāng)晚上失眠的時(shí)候，你應(yīng)該做些什么呢?不要吃安眠藥，因?yàn)榘裁咚帟?huì)引起以后更糟糕的失眠。最好是喝點(diǎn)牛奶，吃些奶酪或者金槍魚�！惫蔬xA。

　　Passage Three

　　【聽力原文】

　　[22] We've just discussed how most snakes move, but there are some notable exceptions. One is the snake called the "American side-winder". From its name, you can probably guess that it moves sideways rather than in a straight line. This is because it lives in the desert where the sand slips and slides. [23] With nothing firm to push against for traction, the side-winder has had to adapt its way of movement to the shifting sand. It pushes against the sand with the entire side of its body, and then move sideways or sidesteps. Think about how a skier climbs a slope on skies. The skier places the skies at an angle of approximately 90 degrees to the direction of movement. The skier then moves each ski by taking a step to the side up the slope. The side-winder snake moves in much the same manner. It lays its body at about 60 degree angle to the direction in which it wants to go. By doing this, the snake has more sand to push against. Then it points its head in the direction it wants to go and leaps to a parallel spot. Contractions down the length of the snake's body force the remainder of the body to follow. [24] If you see the tracks left by a side-winder in loose sand, you'll see a series of paralleled lines. !251 An added advantage gained from this method of moving may be that the snake's body is kept cooler by the breaking of contact with the hot sand during its leaps.

　　22. What is the main topic of the talk?

　　23. Why does the side-winder move the way it does?

　　24. What do the side-winder's tracks look like?

　　25. What may be a special advantage of the side-winder's method of moving?

　　22.C

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均為名詞性短語，且相互之間關(guān)聯(lián)度不高。

　　2.兩項(xiàng)合有與沙漠有關(guān)的詞匯(sand，desert)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查短文的主旨。

　　【解析】講話者在開頭處就提到：“剛剛我們已經(jīng)講了大多數(shù)蛇的移動(dòng)方式，但是還有一些明顯的特例，American side—winder(北美斜行蛇)就是其中的一種�！苯酉聛�，講話者詳細(xì)介紹了這種蛇的移動(dòng)方式。故選C。

　　23.B

　　【解題思路】四項(xiàng)均為以to開頭的不定式短語。而不定式短語通常可以表示目的。因此本題很可能考查某種做法的目的是什么。

　　【解析】題干問這種斜行蛇為什么要這樣移動(dòng)。短文中提到：“With nothing fu'rn to push against for traction，the side—winder has had to adapt its way of movement to the shifting sand.(由于找不到堅(jiān)硬的東西來提供支撐摩擦力，斜行蛇只能使其移動(dòng)的方式適應(yīng)松軟的細(xì)沙環(huán)境。)”接著，講話者將這種蛇的移動(dòng)方式與滑雪者的行進(jìn)路線進(jìn)行了類比，故選B。

　　24.D

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均以lines結(jié)尾。

　　2.修飾lines的均為表示形狀的形容詞(wavy，circular，perpendicular，parallel)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查這種蛇移動(dòng)路線的具體形狀，需重點(diǎn)關(guān)注與lines有關(guān)的內(nèi)容。

　　【解析】短文中明確提到，如果你觀察斜行蛇在細(xì)沙中留下的痕跡，就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)它的行跡是平行線的形狀，故選D。其他三項(xiàng)wavy(波浪形)、circular(圓形)、perpendicular(垂直線形)均未提及，可以排除。

　　25.A

　　【解題思路】

　　1.四項(xiàng)均為名詞短語。

　　2.三項(xiàng)以比較級(jí)開頭(10wer，greater，wider)。

　　3.四項(xiàng)均含有與動(dòng)物的生理狀態(tài)有關(guān)的詞或短語(body temperatures，energy consumption，conceal itself,vision)。

　　結(jié)論：本題可能考查斜行蛇特殊的移動(dòng)方式對(duì)于其在沙漠中的生存有什么好處。

　　【解析】講話者在結(jié)尾處指出，這種移動(dòng)方式在行進(jìn)的過程中有短時(shí)離開地面的時(shí)候，因此能夠使斜行蛇在灼熱的沙漠里保持較低的體溫，故選A。

　　Section C

　　【聽力原文】

　　The northern Italian city of Milan banned all traffic from its streets for 10 hours on Sunday [ 26 ] in an attempt to reduce smog.

　　The measure which was first imposed on a trial basis in the year 2007 is [ 27 ] triggered whenever pollution exceeds the statutory limit for 12 [28] consecutive days.

　　Satellite imagery shows Milan to be one of the most polluted cities in Europe. An estimated 120,000 [29]vehicles will be affected by the move, according to the major daily newspaper in the city.

　　The most polluting vehicles have [30 ] been banned from driving through the city center since Thursday. But on Sunday, there was supposed to be no traffic between 8:00 and 18:00.

　　The ban is imposed when pollution [31 ] exceeds 50 micrograms of particulates per cubic meter of air over 12 days. The last time the full ban was [32] in force was in February.

　　The move is not popular with all environmentalists, who argue that the city's public transport system should be improved to [33 ] discourage people from using their cars. Local Green Party councilor Enrico Fedrighini said cars with three or four people inside should be offered free parking, for example. "One or two car-free Sundays

　　each month will not do anything to [34] tackle the smog crisis," he told the daily newspaper in the city.

　　Public transport was to be bolstered during the day, with an [35] extra metro trains and buses operating.
