2.Section A

解析:
(分数:4.00)
 A.The asset of the US there has been frozen.
 B.The conflict there threatens the U.S. national security. 
 C.Rallies are planned to protest the war there.
 D.The U.N. Security Council is involved in the issue there.刘璇老公王弢
解析:解析:新闻开头提到美国总统表示,他正在采取行动,因为在Darfur的冲突已经威胁到美国的国家安全和外交政策(threatens the national security and foreign policy of the United States),B中的threatens the U.S.national security提到了其中一点,故为正确答案。A“美国财产被冻结”张冠李戴,新闻是说4个苏丹人的财产被冻结。美国总统的声明发表在集合之前(days before rallies are planned),故C所说的集会不可能是总统采取行动的原因。D只是胡乱拼凑了新闻中的U.N.Security Council和involved,“联合国参与其中”并非美国总统采取行动的原因。
 A.Four Sudanese.
 B.The U.S. president.
 C.Reporters.
 D.George Clooney. 
解析:解析:新闻提到,社会名流,如奥斯卡金像奖得主演员George Clooney计划在游行集会上演讲,故选D。
(分数:4.00)
 A.Consumers give up motorcycles.
 B.Some politicians suggest cutting down prices of gasoline.
 C.Oil companies are not satisfied with it.
 D.Some congressmen think oil companies should be examined. 
解析:解析:新闻提到,对于石油公司的高利润,某些美国国会的议员认为对石油公司的利润需密切观察(should be examined closely),D所说与此相符。消费者虽然有怨言(raised complaints),并没有说放弃使用摩托车,A错误。汽油的价格高昂是事实,但新闻并没有提到“政客建议要降低油价”,B错误。新闻只提到石油公司反对征收暴利税(windfall
profits tax),并没有提到他们是否满意高额的利润,C错误。
 A.It might not work. 
 B.Consumers will finally benefit from it.
 C.It is good for oil industry.
 D.It should also be imposed on other industries.
解析:解析:新闻提到,石油分析家说征收暴利税可能达不到预期的目标,有反作用(counterproductive),考生即使听不懂该词的意思,也可从下一句的“石油工业的高利润最终会让消费者受益”可知,分析家并不反对石油公司有高利润,即对“征收暴利税”是持反对意见,故A为正确答案。B“消费者最终受益”和C“对石油公司有利”都对“征收暴利税”持正面态度,与新闻所说相反。D“对其他行业也征收暴利税”没有在新闻中提到。
(分数:6.00)
 A.At 4:35 pm local time.
 B.At 4:35 am local time. 
 C.At 4:25 am local time.
 D.At 4:25 pm local time.
解析:解析:根据选项可以判断问的是时间,而且四个选项比较相似,听录音时要重点留意新闻中的相关信息。新闻一开始就提到,根据美国地质勘探局的消息,当地时间凌晨4点35分发生了地震(The quake hit at 4:35 am local time),故B为答案。
 A.The US Geological Survey first reported the earthquake.
游戏情侣网名大全 B.India's Meteorological Department has predicted the earthquake.
 C.A newly-built building collapsed in the earthquake. 
 D.Three thousand people were reported dead in the earthquake.吴莫愁纹身
解析:解析:新闻提到,地震使许多墙倒塌了,并且一幢新建的六层高的建筑倒下了(a ne
wly-built six-storey building...collapsed),C所述与此一致,为答案。A、B中的机构US Geological Survey和India's Meteorological Department都有在新闻中出现,但所说的事情“首先报告地震”和“预测了地震”都没有在新闻中提到。新闻中陆续报道各地的伤亡人数,都是零星的数量,远远达不到D所说的3000人。
 A.Because he had a heart attack after the earthquake.
 B.Because he jumped from a fourth-floor balcony.
 C.Because he was badly injured during the quake.
 D.Because he suffered a stroke after the earthquake. 
解析:解析:选项均以Because开头,可判断问的是原因,并且根据heart attack、jumped from a fourth-floor balcony、badly injured、suffered a stroke可以推测某人做了某事产生了不好的后果,听录音时要留意新闻中相关信息。新闻最后提到,一名23岁的男子在地震后因中风而死亡(suffered a stroke after the quake),故D为答案。A“地震后心脏病发作”和B“从四楼阳台跳下来”都不是这个23岁男人的死因,C“他在地震中受了重伤”没有在新闻中
提及。

考研考试时间安排__________________________________________________________________________________________
解析:
(分数:8.00)
 A.He finds it hard to afford the rent all by himself. 
 B.He feels lonely living all by himself.
 C.He needs to find somebody to make the apartment more comfortable.
 D.He wants to get help with his courses from his roommate.
解析:解析:对话开始,女士就提出了对话主题:看男士是否还需要人合租。男士急切地说:“要啊!自从为了上学减少了工作时间以来,我的钱就很紧张了。”故A正确。从选项来
看,本题问男士的情形。答题关键是男士说的strapped for cash,它与A中的afford the rent构成紧密的相关性。其他选项就没有这种相关的内容。(口语中,cash即money,be strapped即“身无分文的”。)
 A.The carpet in the living room is soiled in several places. 
 B.The carpet in the living room is worn out in several places.
 C.The toilet is clogged and the sink has a few leaks.
 D.The windows in the bathroom can keep out rain and snow.
解析:解析:女士看到房间里的地毯时说:“看来你该换新地毯了……那些污渍是怎么回事?”可见A正确。soiled意为“污染的,脏的”。
 A.He used some cardboard to keep it shut.
 B.He applied some super glue to keep the hinges on tightly.
 C.He pushed a box against the door to keep it shut 
 D.He pushed a chair against the door to keep it shut.
解析:解析:男士说冰箱门坏了,关不紧。“我用个箱子顶着它使它合得拢。”C正确。由选项知,本题问他是如何“使它关紧”的。关键词包括cardboard,super glue(超级胶水),box,chair。根据这些关键词,“听到什么选什么”。
 A.Find a job for the man.
 B.Split the rent.
孟耿成
 C.Help Dave fix up the house.
美女裸泳无遮挡图片 D.Look for another place. 
解析:解析:对话结尾处,女士对该房子已毫无合租兴趣:“我想我已经看够了。真难以相信,你在这样的条件下还能生活!”因此D正确。本题必须根据女士的语气推断。
