根据最后一段，〞Ihaveaboyfriendnow,andI’mnotinterestedinonlinedating.〞听力11.C)Hecannotgetaccesstotheassignedbook.

由对话可知，该男士认为令他烦恼的是无论是在图书馆还是在书店他都找不到那本书，由此得出答案。getaccessto指“获得，走近，接近，能够利用某物〞。12.A)Shewilldrivethemantothesupermarket.

由文中女士说她不喜欢别人开她的车以及〞whydon’twegotogether?〞可得知女士将开车与男士一同去超市。13.C)Tidyuptheplace.

由文中〞Iguessit’sprettyobviouswhatyou’llbedoingmostoftoday〞可知，很显然她想让他清扫房间。14.A)ThetalkscanbeheldanydayexceptthisFriday.

此题考查onedayisasgoodasthenext的意思，该短语指的是任何一天都行。因此男士的意思是除了本周五，其它任何一天都可以。15.A)Heunderstandsthewoman’sfeelings.文中男士认为，〞I’dfeelthatwaytooifIwereyou.〞，“如果我是你的话我也会那样〔感到很生气〕。〞因此她赞同女士的想法，表示理解女士的感受。16.D)ShehastoinviteDavidtotheparty.

从文中女士的话可得知，女士的母亲执意要David去参加圣诞party，因此她不得不请David。17.C)ManystudentsfindProf.Johnson’slecturesboring.

由男士的话可得知，很多同学如果课前没喝咖啡的话，几乎很难保持清醒状态，忍不住犯困，也就是说学生们都觉得Prof.Johnson的课很无聊。18.D)Assembleacomputer.

本文中主要是考assemble的意思，如果同学知道assemble意为“组装，装配〞，便不难得出答案。〞putacomputertogether〞指“组装电脑〞。19.B)Itrequireshimtoworklonghours.

男士开头便说〞Ihavetoworkverylonghours〞，因此选B。20.D)Itdemandsphysicalenduranceandpatience.

女士问及工作哪个局部会比拟难时，男士答复道他需要一直站着，同时在他们忙的时候，别人会变得易怒，也就是说这份工作需要体力和耐心。21.D)Inahotel.

由文中〞Iwrotetoaboutsixhotels耪쿷䗩쏔ﺹ늇탿://bulo.hjenglish/q/©版权所有沪江网탿늇ﺹ쏔䗩쿷耪andoneofthemgavememyfirstjob〞可得出答案。22.B)Payingattentiontoeverydetail.

由男士的答复〞Attentiontodetail〞可得知，B选项恰好与〞attentiontodetail〞同义。23.A)ThepocketmoneyBritishchildrenget.

原题为Whatisthetableoffiguresabout?意思是：这个表格是关于什么的？根据第一句话Nowyou’veseenthistableoffiguresaboutthepocketmoneychildreninBritainget?我们可以知道这个表格是关于英国孩子的零花钱情况的。24.C)Itoftenriseshigherthaninflation.

原题为WhatdowelearnfromtheconversationaboutBritishchildren’spocketmoney?意思是：从对话中我们可以了解到有关英国孩子零花钱的哪些信息？原文中女性说话人说“Whydoyouthinktheriseinpocketmoneyisoftenhigherthaninflation?〞意思是：“你觉得为什么零花钱通常要比通货膨胀涨的更高呢？〞据此我们可以判断英国孩子的零花钱比通货膨胀涨的更高，答案应选C.25.B)Payforsmallpersonalthings.

原题为Supposingthemanhadchildren,whatwouldheexpectthemtodowiththeirpocketmoney?对话中男性说话人说“…outofthat,theyhavetobuysomesmallpersonalthings,butIwouldn’texpectthemtosavetobuytheirownsocks,forexample.〞意思是“我希望他们用零花钱去买一些小的个人物品，但我不希望他们把钱存起来去买他们自己的短袜等〞。据此我们可以判断答案选B.26A)Districtmanagers

该题比拟简单，文章开头说到Alex期盼着与districtmanagers的会议，因此正确答案为A项。27D)Theimportantpartplayedbydistrictmanagers

文章中提到在会议结束时，Alex打算以“theconversationabouttheimportanceofthedistrictmanagerstothecompanyplans〞来结束会议，可见他打算强调districtmanagers在公司方案中所起的重要作用。因此D项正确。28B)Fiftypercentofthemwerefemale

此题比拟简单，文章中后面说道“Halfofourmanagersarewomen〞，而参加会议的根本上都是那些districtmanagers，由此可判断，会议的听众有一半是女性，所以此题选B项。29B)Hewasnotgendersensitive

文章最后一句说这些女性districtmanagers听到Alex总用“he〞来指代“districtmanagers〞感到surprised和distressed〔痛苦的，苦恼的〕，由此可见Alex失败的原因是由于他对于涉及到性别的用词不够敏感所造成的。30C)Asktoseethemanagerpolitelybutfirmly

此题比拟简单，原文中提到在餐馆遇到上错菜时，应该“makeapolitebutfirmrequesttoseethemanage〞,和C项所说完全一致。31D)Youcan’ttellhowthepersononthelineisreacting

此题相对简单，答案根本上是原句，“Soyoucan’ttellhowthepersononthelineisreacting.〞32D)Sticktothepoint

此题属于原文再现，原文最后建议写投诉信时，应当“bebusiness-likeandsticktothepoint〞，即围绕自己的要点来说，而不要说些无关紧要的废话，因此应该选D项。33.B)Architect

从原文“BeforeBarbarahadchildren,sheworkedasanarchitectforthegovernment,designinggovernmenthousing〞可以得知。34.A)Dosomevolunteerwork.

从原文“IfBarbarafeelstheneedtodosociallyimportantwork,hethinksthatsheshoulddovolunteerworkoneortwodaysaweek.〞可以得知。35.C)Ababy-sitterisnoreplacementforamother.

从原文“Tomdoesnotthinkababy-sittercanreplaceamother〞可以得知。深度阅读sectionA文章大意：本文关注的是绿色建筑与对待现存房屋的问题。根据文意，所谓绿色建筑即为节能减排的建筑。绿色建筑在节能减排方面意义重大，但是将所有现存房屋替换成绿色建筑是否可行呢？文章给出的答案是不可行的，因为推倒这些房屋进行重建也需要大量能量。那么，如何处理这些能耗大的旧房屋呢？文末给出的建议是对它们进行整修和升级。47.Gincredibly

首先这里需要的是一个副词。根据文意，将这些房屋推倒代之以绿色建筑是极度浪费的。因此选incredibly.48.Kreplace

replaceAwithB,意思是用B替换A.这里是用绿色建筑取代现存房屋。49.Jreduced

这一句话较难理解，翻译成中文即：绿色建筑带来的碳排放量的减少平均需要65年才能够补偿推倒房屋所用掉的能量。reduced,这里用作形容词，指减少了的。50.Lsense

inthebroadestsense,在最广义上，这里是一个固定搭配。51.Hpowering

这里的and引导的是平行结构，因此横线上需要填入一个动词的ing形式。在根据句意可知这里选powering，指为某物提供动力，使某物得以运行。52.Dexceptions

联系下文可知本段意思是老房子根本上是最不节能的。但话不能说得这么绝对，因此用withsomeexceptions,指除一些特殊情况外。53.Eexpand

tinycracksandgaps指的是小的缝隙和缺口。小的缝隙和缺口随着时间流逝，会扩大，从而使得外面空气流入，因而加大了能耗。这里选expand表示扩展，增大。54.Ovast

anumberof

表示大量的，number前面可加一些形容词，如great等，表示数量极大的。这里填入vast，意为数量巨大的。55.Fhistoric

句中有from……to……,从什么到什么，联系整句话，意思是从一些历史上的古老建筑到你自己的战后的房子。postwar指二战后，是一个较近的时间，与之对应的那么是historic.56.Iprotect

首先，从句意判断，可知这一分句仍是陈述为老房屋进行升级的好处。此外，后半句中有介词from.据此我们可以判断，此处应填入的词是protect.SectionBPassage157.D)Itisanindispensabledeviceonanairplane.

wardoff指“避开，防止〞。黑匣子并不能防止灾难发生，因此C选项不正确。indispensable，不能缺少的，文中屡次举例黑匣子在事故发生后起到至关重要的作用，因此此选项正确。58.A)Dataforanalyzingthecauseofthecrash.

本文第二段介绍了黑匣子在对于探寻Yemeniairliner坠毁原因上所起到的重大作用。由第二段第二行〞theblackboxisthebestbetforidentifyingwhatwentwrong〞以及后面由于法国一潜艇找到黑匣子这一发现〞markedahugesteptowarddeterminingthecauseofatragedy〞可以推断出答案。59.C)Theearlymodelsoftengotdamagedinthecrash.

文中第三自然段第三行，由〞Earlymodelsoftenfailedtowithstandcrashes,however,soin1965thedevicewascompletelyredesigned…〞可得知，1965年黑匣子重新设计的原因是之前的黑匣子在坠机时容易遭到破坏。withstand意为“承受，经受〞。60.C)Tomakethemeasilyidentifiable.

由文中得知黑匣子被漆成橙色或黄色的原因是〞toaidvisibility〞。Visibility
