rance的国家指导方针可以帮助支付需住院治理的严重疾病的费用”，由此可见，没有保险的人看病还是需要支付费用的。【录音原文】Communityhealthcentersnotonlyshouldbelocatedininnercities,butinsuburbiaaswell,sincemanypeopletherealsolackhealthinsurance.Thesecenterswouldbemuchmorecost-effectivethanhavingemergencyroomscloggedwithnonemergencycasesofuninsuredpatients.Communityhealthcenterscanbeaugmentedwithschool-basedhealthprogramsforchildren.Inaddition,thedevelopmentofnationalguidelinesforcost-effective,private,community-ratedcatastrophichealthinsurancefortheuninsuredcouldhelppayforthetreatmentofseriousillnessesthatmayrequirehospitalizationorotherexpensivecures.[判断题]11.TheTsunamithatoccurredinNovember2004killedover140,000people,leavingseveralmillionhomelessinAcehProvinceandSriLanka.A.正确B.错误正确答案：B参考解析：特定信息的找寻和判断。录音开头便提到“Thelate-Decembertsunamiusheredin2005onasombernote…”，可知这次海啸发生在2005年12月末，而题干中却指出海啸发生在November2004（2004年11月），因此与录音原文不符。【录音原文】Thelate-Decembertsunamiusheredin2005onasombernote,withthedeathtollatover140,000andrising.SeveralmillionhavebeenlefthomelessalongtheIndianOceancoast,inparticularinIndonesia’sAcehprovinceandinSriLanka.Therebuilding,alongwiththeimmediateneedforemergencyfoodandmedicalassistance,willrequireaglobalreliefeffort.[判断题]12.AgustaWestlandisaninnovativecompanyandamarketleaderinmakinghelicopters.A.正确B.错误正确答案：A参考解析：录音中首先指出欧洲有很多有创意的当地公司，从接下来提到的“Forinstance,AgustaWestland,ahelicoptermaker”和“itwasclassedasa‘pioneer’andlaterasa‘marketleader’”，可知AgustaWestland是一家有创意的公司，并被认为是直升机制造业的领导者。【录音原文】ThegoodnewsforEuropeisthatthereareanumberoflocalcompaniesthatareasinnovativeasany.Forinstance,AgustaWestland,ahelicoptermaker,ismovingintowhatitdubsits“thirdera”ofsustainablegrowth,followingperiodswhenitwasclassedasa“pioneer”andlaterasa“marketleader”.Thecompanyhaslaunchedtwobigresearch-basedprojectstoachievethis.[判断题]13.Violencebroughtaboutbylargegroupsofpeopleorthestateismoreseriousthanviolencebyindividuals.A.正确B.错误正确答案：B参考解析：录音中只是把暴力从广义上分成三类：self-directed，interpersonal和collective，并对这三种类型的暴力进行了解释，并未提及那种暴力更加严重。【录音原文】Atthebroadestlevel,violenceisdividedintothreemajorcategories:self-directed,interpersonalandcollective.Sowedifferentiatebetweenviolenceapersoninflictsuponhimselforherself;violenceinflictedbyanotherindividualorsmallgroupofindividuals;andviolenceinflictedbylargergroupsorstates.[判断题]14.Peoplefromdifferentreligiousandracialbackgroundwouldfinditmoredifficulttobeacceptedbythehostcountries,accordingtowhatisproposed.A.正确B.错误正确答案：A参考解析：该段录音的主要内容是“种族和宗教必须成为关于移民的公众讨论的一部分。假装种族和宗教不会影响态度使得移民政策更加严格”。因此题干内容与录音相符。【录音原文】Raceandreligionmustbeapartofthepublicdiscussionofmigration.Topretendthattheydonotaffectattitudesmakespolicymorerestrictivethanitshouldbe.[判断题]15.Migratorybirdsmayrelyontheearth’smagneticfieldforguidancewhiledivavelingduringcloudydays.A.正确B.错误正确答案：B参考解析：逻辑推理和判断。录音中指出“Oncloudynights,theymaybeusingtheearth’smagneticfield…”，可知，多云的夜晚，迁徙的鸟类在飞行时会依靠地球磁场的指引，而非题干中所提到的duringcloudydays。因此该题表述有误。【录音原文】Migratorybirdsuseseveralwaystohelpthemnavigate.Whiletravelingonaclearnighttheyusethestarsasguides.Oncloudynights,theymaybeusingtheearth’smagneticfieldorthewindtohelpthemnavigateaccurately.Whileflyingduringtheday,thesunprovideshelpfortheirpreciseflight.[判断题]16.TheLiberalDemocratsbelievethatpeopleearningmorethan$100,000ayearshoulddonateexdivamoney.A.正确B.错误正确答案：A参考解析：录音中指出托里党人和自由民主党人都坚持各自关于以税收资助的高等教育的观点，并提到后者（即自由民主党人）认为多余的钱可以毫不费力地从年收入超过10万英镑的人那里获得。因此题干表述正确。【录音原文】BoththeToriesandtheLiberalDemocratsclingtotheideaofpurelytax-fundedhighereducation:theformerintendstosavemoneybycuttingstudentnumbers;thelatterclaimsthatextramoneycanbepainlesslyextractedfrompeopleearningmorethan€100,000ayear.[判断题]17.About85,000patentsaregrantedtoforeignapplicantseachyearinAmerica.A.正确B.错误正确答案：A参考解析：录音中提到美国是世界上主要的专利局，每年批准170,000项专利，而有一半是授予给外国专利申请者的，也就是85,000项专利。【录音原文】InAmerica,manyexpertsbelievethatdubiouspatentsabound,suchasthenotoriousonefora“sealedcrustlesssandwich”.OfthefewpatentsthatarereexaminedbythePatentandTrademarkOfficeitself,oftenaftercomplaintsfromothers,mostareinvalidatedortheirclaimsclippeddown.Thenumberofduplicateclaimsamongpatentsisfartoohigh.WhathappensinAmericamattersglobally,sinceitistheworld’sleadingpatentoffice,approvingabout170,000patentseachyear,halfofwhicharegrantedtoforeignapplicants.[判断题]18.Swedenisacoundivythatisverypopularwithimmigrants.A.正确B.错误正确答案：B参考解析：该段录音的主要内容是“随着越来越多的外国人来到瑞典并在那里定居，他们可能会促进瑞典价值观的改变。甚至邻国的丹麦人都表示不能理解为何瑞典人长久以来忍受这个管理过严的政府”，并未表现出瑞典是一个受移民欢迎的国家。【录音原文】AsmoreforeignerscomeinandsettleinSweden,theymayinturnhelptochangetheirhostcountry’svalues.EvenneighboringDanessaytheycannotunderstandwhytheSwedeshaveforsolongputupwithanannystatethattriestoruneveryaspectoftheirlives.[判断题]19.Accordingtothespeaker,thehumancommunitytendstohaveanarrowinterpretationofthenotionof“progress”.A.正确B.错误正确答案：A参考解析：语义的理解和判断。录音中关于人类社会对“进步”的理解为“Societyisalltoocommittedtothenotionof‘progress’asmeasuredthrougheconomicgrowthandpopulationexpansion.”，alltoo相当于一个程度副词的作用，意为“实在太（很）”，该句话表示说话者认为社会对进步的理解太过狭隘，总是以经济发展和人口增长两项指标来衡量。接着说话者指出“人们并未仔细考虑过致力于‘可持续发展’”。由此可知，题干描述的“说话者认为人类社会对‘进步’这一概念的理解是狭隘的”符合录音中相关内容。【录音原文】Societyi
