听力文本及答案解析

06

W: Could you please tell me if Flight 050508 from San Francisco will be on time

M: Yes, madam It should be arriving in about 10 minutes

Q: Who do you think the woman is talking to?

答案：A

分析：这是一道判断人物身份的题目，这类题目就是抓关键词，这离得最关键的词就是“Flight”听到这个词我们就知道对话发生在机场里，所以答案自然是A。

07

M: Sorry to trouble you . But is there any possibility⁴ of borrowing a blanket⁵ ? I feel cold.

W: I think we’ve got one . Could you wait until after take off please

Q: What is the probable⁶ relationship⁷ between the two speakers

答案：B

分析：这个前一题基本属于一类题目，这题是判断人物关系。解体思路同样是抓关键词，但这题要比前一题难得多，这里有两个关键词 blanket 毯子 但最关键的一个词是take off 起飞。根据这两个词我们完全可以判断对话发生的场景和飞机有关，且和上题不同这个场景是发生在飞机上。 那么答案就是 B

08

W: I heard you caught a cold . How are you feeling today

M: I can’t complain . At least I’m out of bed

Q: How is the man today

答案：Ａ

分析：这里的解题关键是男人的话，At least I’m out of bed　至少我可以下床了。那也就是说比原来好一点了，但还没有完全好。所以选Ａ

09

W: I wish my hair was longer

M: Yes, pity you had it cut . If only you’d listened to me

Q: What can we learn from the dialogue

答案：Ａ

分析：这段对话用到了虚拟语气。女生说：我真希望我的头发长一点，言下之意女生现在是短发。接着男人说：是的，真可惜你把它剪掉了。“If only……”虚拟语气，如果你听我的就好了。因为是虚拟语气，所以实际的意思是女人没有听从男人的意见，答案是Ａ

10

W: Has Andrew come back from his trip to Paris

M: Yes , and he liked it so much that after only two weeks at home he went back to study French for a year

Q: What does this conversation tell us about Andrew

答案：Ｂ

分析：这是一道动作目的题，再短对话中是比较难的一种题目。我们看着段对话，女人说Andrew　从巴黎旅行回来了是吗？男人说，ｙｅｓ　是的，然后又说：他非常喜欢那里，所以回来两周之后又回到巴黎学一年法语。注意这里liked，went back　用的都是过去式，说明事情已经发生了，那么Andrew现在状态应该是正在巴黎学法语，选Ｂ
