1、Accordingtothespeaker,thefirstmodernOlympicGameswereheldasan

internationalcompetition.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：在圍繞中心話題的紛繁信息中把握重要人物的主要觀點(diǎn)和主張。根據(jù)

信號詞desire找到重要人物BaronPierredeCoubertin的主張是解題的關(guān)鍵。

2、TheClintonadministrationthoughtthatthebanofUSaidtoPakistansuccessfully

stoppedthespreadofnuclearweaponsinSouthAsia.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：能夠正確找到指示代詞所指對象是解題關(guān)鍵。原文該發(fā)言人所提的沒

能推進(jìn)美國制止南亞核武器傳播的目標(biāo)的法律，就是指禁止向巴基斯坦提供援助的

命令。

3、Inflationoccurswhengovernmentsectorsintervenethecapitalisteconomicsystem.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：1）掌握表示因果關(guān)系的信號詞，可以幫助聽者作出正確的判斷。題干

中occur表明該題重點(diǎn)在于找尋和判斷inflation的原因，由此可使聽者將重點(diǎn)放在

找尋原文關(guān)于inflation的原因上；2）同義詞替換。本題需掌握stemfrom與題干中

的。ccur同義，均是表示因果關(guān)系的信號詞。

4、Thespeakersaysthattheperiodsofseismicactivityarcincreasinglycomplexand

maycausetheearthtowobble.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：識別聽力材料中的關(guān)鍵信息，并對其上下文充分理解，是解答本題的

關(guān)鍵。如本題中的關(guān)鍵信息是seismicactivity,如果對有關(guān)該詞部分的內(nèi)容充分理

解，便能作出正確的判斷。

5、Accordingtothespeaker,aseatbeltandanuprightseatprovidelessprotectionfor

carpassengers.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知織點(diǎn)解析：理解關(guān)鍵單詞和短語的含義是解題的關(guān)鍵。本題原文中recline意思

是“斜倚著的"，與題于中situpright意思相反；atadditionalriskofinjury意思為“受

傷可能性加大”，與題干中l(wèi)essprotection相呼應(yīng)。

AmericaneconomywillsoonberecoveredifAmericanscansolvetheproblemof

unemploymentandcontroloilprices.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：B

知識點(diǎn)解析：1）中心句和支持性細(xì)節(jié)的關(guān)系。材料中第一句是中心句，概括了當(dāng)今

美國面臨的最大問題是經(jīng)濟(jì)疲軟。后面的內(nèi)容具體說明了這一點(diǎn)。2）根據(jù)原文中詞

匯的色彩，可作出正確韭斷。如原文中自始至終使用了帶有貶義色彩的詞，如：

slump,deficit,unemployment?depression,frivolous,damaging等，由此可判

斷，美國的經(jīng)濟(jì)不會在短期內(nèi)recover“恢復(fù)

7.PrivateinformationfromPolishsecretagentsenabledtheBritishCustomsauthorities

toconfiscatethearmsshipmentwhichwasorderedbytheUlsterVolunteerForce.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識之解析：1）從復(fù)雜的信息中識別主干部分的主要內(nèi)容是解題的關(guān)鍵。本題的信

息龐雜，因此要根據(jù)題干內(nèi)容抓住原文話語中的主干部分，排除次要信息，如一些

起修飾作用的短語和詞匯及對這批軍火的具體統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)等；2）掌握同義詞替換，原

文中tipoff意為“為通風(fēng)報(bào)信”，與題干中enabled...to...相呼應(yīng)。

8、Tokeeptheprosperityoftheairindustry,theDepartmentofDefensehasinvesteda

義替換。

9、AnewflawwasfoundinMicrosoftInternetExplorer.Buttheflawwillnotaffect

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

maintenanceofdatafilesofcomputers.

A、正確

B、錯(cuò)誤

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

D、Itismorecommon.

標(biāo)準(zhǔn)答案：A

知識點(diǎn)解析；識別信號詞有助于迅速解題。文中談到幾種傳統(tǒng)的散熱器后使用了短

語ontheotherhand這個(gè)表對比的詞組來介紹石英散熱器，由此可推測該物與前面

提到的散熱器肯定不同，通過背景常識，可幫助我們迅速猜測選項(xiàng)A有可能是正
