Q：What do we learn about the speakers?

M： Yes. My son is graating from high school, and I want to get him something special.

Q：Where does the conversation most probably take place?

Question 3

Question 8

W： I really admire the efficiency of your secretaries.

M： Our company selects only the best. They have a heave workload and we give them a lot of responsibilities.

Q：What are the speakers talking about?

Now you'll hear the two long conversations.

Conversation One

W：Hi Leo, why do you say English would become the world language?

M：Well. For one thing, it's so commonly used, the only language that is used by more people is Chinese.

W：Why is English spoken by so many people?

M：It's spoken in many countries of the world because of the British empire。 And now of course is the influence of America as well.

W：Many students find English a difficult language to learn.

M：Oh all languages are difficult to learn。 But English does have two greatest advantages.

W：What are they?

M：Well,first of all, it has a very international vocabulary。It has many German, Dutch, French,Spanish and Italian words in it。So speakers of those languages will find many familiar words in English。In fact, English has words for many other languages as well.

W： Why is that?

M： Well, partly because English speakers have travelled a lot, they bring back words with them. So English really does have an international vocabulary.

W： And what is the other advantage of English?

M： It that English grammar is really quite easy. For example, it doesn't have dozens of different endings for its nouns, adjectives and verbs, not like Latin, Russian and German for example.

W： Why is that?

M： Well, it's quite interesting actually, it's because of the French。 When the French ruled England, French was the official language, and only the common people spoke English。 They tried to make their language as simple as possible。 So they made the grammar easier。

Questions 9 to 11 are based on the conversation you've just heard.

Q9： What does the man say about Chinese?

Q10： What made English a widely used language?

Q11： What is said to be special about English vocabulary?

W：Well, first of all, we need one complete new drawing board.

M：DO44 or DO45?

W：Ah, I don't know. What's the difference?

M：Well,the 45 costs 15 pounds more.

W：So what's the total price then?

M：It's 387 pounds.

W：Dose that include valued-added tax?

M：Oh, I'm not sure。 Most of the prices do. Yes, I think it does.

W：What are the boards actually made of?

M：Oh,I don't know. I think it‘s a sort of plastic stuff these days. It's white anyway.

W：And how long does it take to deliver?

M：Oh, I couldn't really say. It depends on how much work we've got and how many other orders there are to send out, you know.

W：Ok, now we also want some drawing pens, ink and rulers, and some drawing paper.

M：Oh dear. The girl who takes all those supplies isn't here this morning. So I can't take those orders for you. I only do the equipment you see.

Passage One

No one knows for sure just how old kites are. In fact, they have been in use for centuries. 25 centuries ago, kites were well-known in China. These first kites were probably made of wood. They may even have been covered with silk, because silk were used a lot at that time. Early kites were built for certain uses. In ancient China, they will use to carry ropes to cross rivers. Once across, the ropes were tear down and wooden bridges would hang for them. Legend tells of one General who flew musical kites over the enemies' camp. The enemy fled, believing the sounds to be the warming voices of angels. By the 15th century, many people flew kites in Europe. Marco Polo may have brought the kite back from his visit to China. The kite has been linked to great names and events. For instance, Benjamin Franklin used kite to prove the lightening electricity. He flew the kite in the storm. He did this in order to draw lightening from the clouds. He tied a metal key and a strip of silk to the kite line. The silk ribbon would stop the lightening from passing through his body. Benjamin's idea was first laughed at. But later on, it enlightened the invention of the lightening rod. With such grand history, kite flying is short remain an entertaining and popular sport.

Passage Two

I have learnt many languages, but I'm not mastered them the way the professional interpreter or translator has。 Still, they have open doors for me。 They have allowed me the opportunity to seek jobs in international contexts and help me get those jobs。 Like many people who have lived overseas for a while, I simply got crazy about it。 I can't image living my professional or social life without international interactions。 Since 1977, I have spent much more time abroad than in the United States。 I like going to new places, eating new foods and experiencing new cultures。 If you can speak the language, it's easier to get to know the country and its people。 If I had the time and money。 I would live for a year in as many countries as possible。 Beyond my career, my facility with languages has given me a few rare opportunities。 Once, just after I returned my year in Vienna。 I was asked to translate for a German judge at Olympic level horse event and learned a lot about the sport。

In Japan, once when I was in the studio audience of a TV cooking show, I was asked to go up on the stage and taste the beef dish that was being prepared and tell what I thought。 They asked” Was it as good as American beef?" It was very exciting for me to be on Japanese TV, speaking in Japanese about how delicious the beef was。

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the passage you've just heard.

Question 19 What does the speaker say about herself?

Question 20 What does the speaker say about many people who have lived overseas for a while?

Question 21 How did the speaker experience of living in Vienna benefit her?

Question 22 What was the speaker asked to do in the Japanese studio?

submitting these reports." he said. She would put check marks on them like she had been reading them。 As I began to read about scientists,economists and philosophers。 I started imaging myself in their shoes。 As he got into the hobbit of hard work, his grade began to soar。 Ultimately he received a scholarship to attending Yale University, and later he was admitted to the University of Michigan Medical School.

Directions: In this section, you will heara passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea.

Now listen to the passage.

When you look up at the night sky, what do you see? There are other heavenly bodies out there besides the moon and stars. One of the most fascinating of this is a comet. Comets were formed around the same the earth was formed. They are made up of ice and other frozen liquids and gasses. Now and then these dirty snow balls begin to orbit the sun just as the planets do. As a comet gets closer to the sun, some gasses in it begin to unfreeze. They combine with st particles from the comet to form a huge cloud. As the comet gets even nearer to the sun and solar wind blows the cloud behind the comet thus forming its tail. The tail and generally fuzzy atmosphere around the comet are characteristics that can help identify this phenomenon in the night sky. In any given year, about dozen known comets come close to the sun in their orbits. The average person can't see them all of course. Usually there is only one or two a year bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Comet Hale-Bopp discovered in 1995 was an unusually bright comet. Its orbit bought it relatively to the earth within 122 million miles of it. But Hale-Bopp came a long way on its earthly visit. It won't be back for another 4 thousand years or so.

大學英語四級真題聽力長對話

What kind of training does one need to go into this type of job?

That’s a very good question. I don’t think there is any, specifically.

For example, in your case, what was your ecational background?

Well, I did a degree in French at Nottingham. After that, I did careers work in secondary schools like the careers guidance people. Here is in the university. Then I went into local government because I found I was more interested in the administrative side. Then progressed on to universities. So there wasn’t any plan and there was no specific training. There are plenty of training courses in management techniques and committee work which you can attend now.

But in the first place, you did a French degree.

In my time, there wasn’t a degree you could do for administration. I think most of the administrators I’ve come across have degrees and all sorts of things.

Well, I know in my case, I did an English literature degree and I didn’t really expect to end up doing what I am doing now. Quite.

But you are local to Nottingham, actually? Is there any reason why you went to Nottingham University?

No, no, I come from the north of England, from west Yorkshire. Nottingham was one of the universities I put on my list. And I like the look of it. The campus is just beautiful.

2020年7月大學英語四級聽力真題原文：短文1

Section C

Directions: In this section, you will hear three passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a ques- tion, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D) . Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.

There is a saying that goes something along the lines of ‘You must love yourself first before you can love someone else.’ Similarly, I personally believe that you must be comfortable and happy in your own company before you can truly be yourself in the company of others. There is a massive difference between being lonely and being alone. Loneliness is a horrible feeling. However, you don’t have to actually be alone to feel that way. Many times, I’ve felt lonely when surrounded by a big group of people. In contrast, being alone can actually be a blessing, particularly, when you’ve actively chosen it. In my experience, being bored and alone is dangerous and can easily lead to the feeling of loneliness. The trick is to be active. Get outside, stretch your legs, do something cultural, buy yourself something tasty to eat or something pretty to wear. You don’t have to take anyone else into consideration and can do whatever you please. Spending time alone also allows you to more efficiently take care of problems. And then, when it’s time to be social and meet up with your friends, you will be fully there, because you won’t have too much other stuff floating around in your mind. Having been alone for a bit, you will also appreciate your friends’ company more and chances are your time spent together will be more worthwhile.

Question 16: What does the speaker say about being alone?

Question 17: What does the speaker say how to rece one’s feeling of loneliness?

Question 18: What is an advantage of spending one’s time alone?

Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and decide which is the best answer.

11. W: Simon, could you return the tools I lent you for building the bookshelf last month?
M: Uh, well, I hate to tell you this … but I can't seem to find them.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
12. W: I'm going to Martha's house. I have a paper to complete, and I need to use her computer.
M: Why don't you buy one yourself? Think how much time you could save.
Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
13. W: Bob said that Seattle is a great place for conferences.
M: He's certainly in a position to make that comment. He's been there so often.
Q: What does the man say about Bob?
14. W: Mr. Watson, I wonder whether it's possible for me to take a vacation early next month .
M: Did you fill out a request form?
Q: What is the probable relationship between the two speakers?
15. M: Do you want to go to the lecture this weekend? I hear the guy who's going to deliver the lecture spent a year living in the rain forest.
W: Great! I'm doing a report on the rain forest. Maybe I can get some new information to add to it.
Q: What does the woman mean?
16. W: Wow! I do like this campus: all the big trees, the green lawns, and the old buildings with tall columns . It's really beautiful.
M: It sure is. The architecture of these buildings is in the Greek style. It was popular in the eighteenth century here.
Q: What are the speakers talking about?

17. M: This article is nothing but advertising for housing developers. I don't think the houses for sale are half that good.
W: Come on, David. Why so negative? We're thinking of buying a home, aren't we? Just a trip to look at the place won't cost us much.
Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?
18. M: Would you pass me the sports section, please?
W: Sure, if you give me the classified ads and local news section.
Q: What are the speakers doing?
Now you'll hear two long conversations.
Conversation One
W: Hello, Gary. How're you?
M: Fine! And yourself?
W: Can't complain. Did you have time to look at my proposal?
M: No, not really. Can we go over it now?
W: Sure. I've been trying to come up with some new proction and advertising strategies. First of all, if we want to stay competitive, we need to modernize our factory. New equipment should've been installed long ago.
M: How much will that cost?
W: We have several options ranging from one hundred thousand dollars all the way up to half a million.
M: OK. We'll have to discuss these costs with finance.
W: We should also consider human resources. I've been talking to personnel as well as our staff at the factory.
M: And what's the picture?
W: We'll probably have to hire a couple of engineers to help us modernize the factory.
M: What about advertising?
W: Marketing has some interesting ideas for television commercials.
M: TV? Isn't that a bit too expensive for us? What's wrong with advertising in the papers, as usual?
W: Quite frankly, it's just not enough anymore. We need to be more aggressive in order to keep ahead of our competitors.
M: Will we be able to afford all this?
W: I'll look into it, but I think higher costs will be justified. These investments will result in higher profits for our company.
M: We'll have to look at the figures more closely. Have finance draw up a budget for these investments.
W: All right. I'll see to it.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
• What are the two speakers talking about?
• What does the woman say about the equipment of their factory?
• What does the woman suggest about human resources?
• Why does the woman suggest advertising on TV?

Conversation Two
W: Sir, you've been using the online catalogue for quite a while. Is there anything I can do to help you?
M: Well, I've got to write a paper about Hollywood in the 30s and 40s, and I'm really struggling. There are hundreds of books, and I just don't know where to begin.
W: Your topic sounds pretty big. Why don't you narrow it down to something like … uh … the history of the studios ring that time?
M: You know, I was thinking about doing that, but more than 30 books came up when I typed in 「movie studios.」
W: You could cut that down even further by listing the specific years you want. Try adding 「1930s」 or 「1940s」 or maybe 「Golden Age.」
M: 「Golden Age」 is a good idea. Let me type that in …. Hey, look, just 6 books this time. That's a lot better.
W: Oh … another thing you might consider … have you tried looking for any magazine or newspaper articles?
M: No, I've only been searching for books.
W: Well, you can look up magazine articles in the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature . And we do have the Los Angeles Times available over there. You might go through their indexes to see if there's anything you want.
M: Okay. I think I'll get started with these books and then I'll go over the magazines.
W: If you need any help, I'll be over at the Reference Desk.
M: Great, thanks a lot.

Section B

Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

In the next few decades people are going to travel very differently from the way they do today. Everyone is going to drive electrically powered cars. So in a few years people won't worry about running out of gas.
Some of the large automobile companies are really moving ahead with this new technology. F & C Motors, a major auto company, for example, is holding a press conference next week. At the press conference the company will present its new, electronically operated models.
Transportation in the future won't be limited to the ground. Many people predict that traffic will quickly move to the sky. In the coming years, instead of radio reports about road conditions and highway traffic, news reports will talk about traffic jams in the sky.
But the sky isn't the limit. In the future, you'll probably even be able to take a trip to the moon. Instead of listening to regular airplane announcements, you'll hear someone say, 「The spacecraft to the moon leaves in ten minutes. Please check your equipment. And remember, no more than ten ounces of carry-on baggage are allowed.」
Questions 26 to 28 are based on the passage you have just heard.
• What will be used to power cars in the next few decades?
• What will future news reports focus on when talking about transportation?
• What is the special requirement for passengers traveling to the moon?

Passage Two
The period of engagement is the time between the marriage proposal and the wedding ceremony. Two people agree to marry when they decide to spend their lives together.
The man usually gives the woman a diamond engagement ring. That tradition is said to have started when an Austrian man gave a diamond ring to the woman he wanted to marry. The diamond represented beauty. He placed it on the third finger of her left hand. He chose that finger because it was thought that a blood vessel in that finger went directly to the heart. Today, we know that this is not true. Yet the tradition continues.
Americans generally are engaged for a period of about one year if they are planning a wedding ceremony and party. During this time, friends of the bride may hold a party at which women friends and family members give the bride gifts that she will need as a wife. These could include cooking equipment or new clothing.
Friends of the man who is getting married may have a bachelor party for him. This usually takes place the night before the wedding. Only men are invited to the bachelor party.
During the marriage ceremony, the bride and her would-be husband usually exchange gold rings that represent the idea that their union will continue forever. The wife often wears both the wedding ring and engagement ring on the same finger. The husband wears his ring on the third finger of his left hand.
Many people say the purpose of the engagement period is to permit enough time to plan the wedding. But the main purpose is to let enough time pass so the two people are sure they want to marry each other. Either person may decide to break the engagement. If this happens, the woman usually returns the ring to the man; they also return any wedding gifts they have received.
Questions 29 to 31 are based on the passage you have just heard.
• What was the diamond ring said to represent?
• Why did the Austrian man place the diamond ring on the third finger of the left hand of his would-be wife?
• What is the chief advantage of having the engagement period?

Passage Three

「Where is the university?」 is a question many visitors to Cambridge ask, but no one could point them in any one direction because there is no campus. The university consists of thirty-one self-governing colleges. It has lecture halls, libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city.
Indivial colleges choose their own students, who have to meet the minimum entrance requirements set by the university. Undergraates usually live and study in their colleges, where they are taught in very small groups. Lectures, and laboratory and practical work are organized by the university and held in university buildings.
There are over 10,000 undergraates and 3,500 postgraates. About forty percent of them are women and some eight percent from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance. Since the beginning of the 20th century more than sixty university members have won Nobel prizes.
The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and research. It has more than sixty specialist subject libraries, as well as the University Library, which, as a right library, is entitled to a of every book published in Britain.
Examinations are set and degrees are awarded by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in 1881, but it was not until 1948 that they were awarded degrees.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
• Why is it difficult for visitors to locate Cambridge University?
• What does the passage tell us about the colleges of Cambridge University?
• What can be learned from the passage about the libraries in Cambridge University?
• What does the passage say about women students in Cambridge University?
Section C
Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46 you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.
Russia is the largest economic power that is not a member of the World Trade Organization. But that may change. Last Friday, the European Union said it would support Russia's (36) effort to become a W.T.O. member.
Representatives of the European Union met with Russian (37) officials in Moscow. They signed a trade agreement that took six years to (38) negotiate .
Russia called the trade agreement (39) balanced . It agreed to slowly increase fuel prices within the country. It also agreed to permit (40) competition in its communications instry and to remove some barriers to trade.
In (41) exchange for European support to join the W.T.O., Russian President Putin said that Russia would speed up the (42) process to approve the Kyoto Protocol, an international (43) environmental agreement to rece the proction of harmful instrial gases. (44) These 「greenhouse gases」 trap heat in the atmosphere and are blamed for changing the world's climate .
Russia had signed the Kyoto Protocol, but has not yet approved it. The agreement takes effect when it has been approved by nations that proce at least 55 percent of the world's greenhouse gases . (45) But currently, nations procing only 44 percent have approved the Protocol. Russia proces about 17 percent of the world's greenhouse gases . The United States, the world's biggest procer, withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol after President Bush took office in 2001. So, Russia's approval is required to put the Kyoto Protocol into effect.
(46) To join the W.T.O., a country must reach trade agreements with major trading countries that are also W.T.O. members . Russia must still reach agreements with China, Japan, South Korea and the United States.

銆銆 Conversation 1

銆銆M: I bet you're looking forward to the end of this month. Are you?

銆銆W: Yes, I am. How did you know?

銆銆M: David told me you had a special birthday coming up.

銆銆W: Oh鈥yeah that's right. This year will be my golden birthday.絎8棰

銆銆M: What does that mean? I've never heard of a golden birthday.

銆銆W: I've actually just learnt this concept myself. Fortunately, just in time to celebrate. A golden or lucky birthday is when one turns the age of their birth date. So, for example, my sister's birthday is December 9th and her golden birthday would have been the year she turned nine years old. Come to think of it, my parents did throw her a surprise party that year. 絎9棰

銆銆M: Interesting. Too bad I missed mine. My golden birthday would've been four years ago. I assume you got big plans then.

銆銆W: Actually yes. My husband is planning a surprise holiday for the two of us next week. I have no idea what he's got in mind, but I'm excited to find out. Has he mentioned anything to you?

銆銆M: He might have.

銆銆W: Anything you'd like to share? I'm dying to know what kind of trip he has planned on where we're going. 絎10棰

銆銆M: You know nothing at all?

銆銆W: Not a clue. Hard to imagine, isn鈥檛 it? Though I must say I think he's been having even more fun keeping the secret from me in the past few weeks.

銆銆M: I'm sure both of you will have a fantastic time. Happy golden birthday! I can't wait to hear all about it when you get back. 絎11棰

銆銆W: Mr. Green, what do you think makes a successful negotiator?

銆銆M: Well, that鈥檚 hard to define. But I think successful negotiators have several things in common. They are always polite and rational people. They are firm but flexible. They can recognize power and know how to use it. They are sensitive to the dynamics of the negotiation. 絎12棰 The way of rises and falls and how it may change direction. They project the image of confidence, and perhaps most importantly, they know when to stop. 絎13棰

銆銆W: And, what about an unsuccessful negotiator?

銆銆M: Well, this is probably all of us when we start out. We are probably immature and over-trusting. Too emotional or aggressive. We are unsure of ourselves and we want to be liked by everyone. Good negotiators learn fast. 絎14棰 Poor negotiators remain like that and go on losing negotiations.

銆銆W: In your opinion, can the skills of negotiation be taught?

銆銆M: Well, you can teach someone how to prepare for a negotiation. There are perhaps six stages in every negotiation. Get to know the other side. 絎15棰 State your goals. Start the process. Clarify areas of disagreement or conflict. Reassess your position. Making acceptable compromises. And finally, reach some agreement in principle. These stages can be studied. And strategies to be used in each can be planned beforehand. But I think, the really successful negotiator is probably born with six sense about responding appropriately to the situation at hand.

銆銆W: The artistic sense you鈥檝e just described?

銆銆M: Yes. That鈥檚 right.

答案解析：

15.

W: I want to send this package by first class mail. I'dalso like some stamps.

M: Do you want the mail insured?

Q: Where are the two speakers?

正確答案：B

解析：女士說：「我想以第一類郵件的方式寄這個包裹，另外我還想買幾張郵票。」男士回答：「你的郵寄物品需要買保險嗎?」可見對話發生在郵局，即B。介詞「in/at+地點名詞」構成標準的詢問對話發生場所的場景題選項。解答這類題時，要留意對話雙方的話，由關鍵詞確定答案。本對話中，第一個說話人說的send this package byfirst class mail, stamps以及第二個說話人說的mail, insure，都是郵寄東西時常用的詞彙。

16.

M: I thought that maybe we could go there for lunch today. That is, if you haven't promised togo with someone else.

Q: What does the woman mean?

正確答案：C

解析：男士提議說，女士如果沒有約會的話，中午一起吃飯;女士表示贊同，說：「太好了。不過我希望你的心情已經比上午好了一些。」言下之意說，男士上午情緒不好，故C正確。「中but」題。女士的話That'd bewonderful... 是隨口贊同說的客氣話，並不表示女士很興奮excited，據此排除A。but後面的內容才是重點，它表明男士上午情緒不佳，故選C，同時排除其他。

Section C

pound Dictation

Corporations as a group offer a variety of jobs. Most large panies send people to colleges to 36 ______ graating students with the 37 ______ academic training. A large university may have more than 500 panies a year knocking on its doors. Big firms are your best 38 ______ for a job because their normal growth, employee 39 ______ , and turnover create thousands of job 40 ______ nationwide each year.

Corporations, however, 41 ______ the rule that the biggest isn't always the best. Many *** all firms with a few hundred employees have positions that may 42 ______ with your professional goals, too. Such firms may not have the time, money, or need to send people around to your college; you will probably have to 43 ______ them yourself either directly or through an employment agency. Don't ignore these little panies. 44 _____________________________________________________________ . You could bee a big fish in a pond, reaching a high-level position more quickly than you would 45 _____________________________________________________ .

For example, a *** all pany may need a bright engineering, accounting or management graate who report directly to the senior vice-president of engineering, the pany controller, or the general manager. 46 ___________________________________________________________________ . In addition, responsibilities may e faster in a *** all firm with less specialization and fewer lower-level employees to receive delegated authority.

答案解析：

36. interview

解析：不定式to後面加原形動詞。interview意為「對……進行面試」。

37. required

解析：此處是動詞的過去分詞作定語，修飾後面的名詞，不要漏寫結尾的ed。

38. place

解析：此處是名詞位於形容詞後，作表語。

39. retirements

解析：與前面的growth和後面的turnover屬於並列關系，此處也需要名詞，拼寫時記得最後還有個表復數形式的s。

40. openings

解析：由前面修飾的片語thousands of可知此處需復數名詞，opening表示「空缺」之義，不要漏寫結尾的s。

41. illustrate

解析：此處應採用一般現在時，由於主語是復數名詞，因此該詞是原形動詞。illustrate在此意為「說明」。拼寫時注意中間有兩個l。

42. correspond

解析：情態動詞may後面，應是原形動詞，該詞與with搭配。correspond with在此處意為「與……一致。」拼寫時注意中間有兩個r。

43. contact

解析：片語have to後面接原形動詞;根據上下文，該詞很可能表示聯絡之義。

44. 標准答案：Their salaries are usually petitive and the chances for advancement are even stronger than those of a big firm

聽音關鍵：salaries, petitive, chances for advancement, stronger than, big firm

答案重構：Their salaries are usually good and you will have stronger chances for advancement in these little panies

畫龍點睛：此句聽寫只要抓住兩層意思：小公司薪水也好而且晉升機會較大，按照聽到的關鍵詞把意思表達完整即可。

45. 標准答案：if you had climbed the more petitive ladder of a corporate giant

聽音關鍵：had climbed, more petitive ladder, corporate giant

答案重構：if you had climbed the more petitive ladder of a big pany

畫龍點睛：此句採用了虛擬語氣，故從句要用過去完成時。結尾的a corporate giant，可用意思類似的a big pany替換，單詞簡單，也避免拼錯。

46. 標准答案：In large firms it may take years to reach that level and accumulate similar experience

聽音關鍵：large firms, take years, reach that level, accumulate, similar experience

答案重構：In big panies, if you want to be in that position and get similar experience, you may spend years of time

畫龍點睛：原句是用it作形式主語，可根據句子含義，轉換一下主語，換一種表達。

W: Hi. How can we help you today?

M: Yeah. I'd like to get my hair trimmed a little. Nothing fancy. Just a basic trim.

W: Well, can we interest you in today's special?

M: Um... No...

W: [19]We'll shampoo, cut, and style your hair for one unbelievable low price of $9.99. Plus, we'll give you a clean shave and a back massage to help you relax. Best service in town!

M: Okay, [20]I'll have the plete service today, but as I said before, I just want to get my hair trimmed. A little off the top and sides. That's all. I mean, that's all.

W: No problem. Relax. [21]You're in good hands. Okay, here we go. So, what do you do for a living?

M: I'm a lawyer, specializing in workplace accidents, and [22]I'm in town for an interview for a new job, and... Hey, what happened to my hair? And what's left of my hair turned purple. Are you even a licensed beautician?

W: Well, sir. We offer a money-back guarantee on all our work, so if you're not pletely satisfied...

M: Satisfied? I'm anything but satisfied. [22]How in the world am I supposed to go to a job interview looking like this? Forget it. Forget it.

Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

19. What is one service NOT included in the special price at the beauty salon?

正確答案：B

解析：女士說，當日的特別優惠是以9.99美元的價格享受洗、剪、吹，外加剃須、背部 *** 。A、C、D均有提及;只有B修指甲不在服務范圍內，故應選B。通讀選項，知道這篇對話與理發有關。本題選項涉及相關服務專案，解答時要注意對話中提到哪些專案，以做相應標記。此外，修指甲不屬於一般男士理發業務范圍，根據「主題原則」，與主題無關的即為答案，直接選B。

20. Why does the man repeatedly say "That's all"?

正確答案：C

解析：男士的原話是：「今天就來整套服務吧。不過，……我只想把頭發修一下。上面和兩邊都稍微修剪一點點就可以了……」這里的「That's all」表明男士不想要別的花樣，只需要自己想要的服務，故C正確。根據男士說的「Okay, I'll have the plete service today」，可排除A甚至D全套服務所需的長時間與quickly矛盾;B無依據。

21. What does the beautician mean by "You're in good hands"?

正確答案：C

解析：女士說：「沒問題，放鬆點，給你服務的是個好手。」所謂「好手」即是水平高的美容美發師，故C正確。本題問「You're in good hands」是什麼意思 。像這種「短語含義題」，絕不能選其單詞本義，由此可排除A;若頭發狀態良好，就不用來理發了，故B也可排除;D是利用原詞relax設定的干擾項。

22. Why does the customer go to this beauty salon to improve his appearance?

正確答案：D

解析：男士先說，他到城裡來面試一份新工作。隨後又抱怨，「我這個樣子怎麼去面試?」可見男士來美容院理發是為了參加面試，故D正確。四個選項均以「He is going to」開頭，差別在to後面的內容上。A、B未提到，可排除;男士說他是一個處理工傷事故的律師，C中的一般將來時態與對話內容不一致。
