SectionIListeningComprehension

PartA

1．a(chǎn)ccountants。獨(dú)白前三句交代了調(diào)查的總體狀況，如對象范圍(membersofdifferentprofessions)、調(diào)查內(nèi)容(howmuchtimetheydevotedtoreading和whattypesofbookstheyenjoyed)，然后依據(jù)調(diào)查對象的職業(yè)分類，對調(diào)查結(jié)果進(jìn)行說明。其中第四、五句說明的就是第一類對象的狀況：Accountantsspendanaverageoffivehours....，考生只要聽清了這一處即可作答，關(guān)鍵是要留意拼寫。

2．biographies。本題是針對第三類對象的狀況而設(shè)置。獨(dú)自第七、八句說明的是政治家的閱讀習(xí)慣，其中第七句指出：Politicians…favorbiographiesandhistorybooks，即政治家們喜愛看傳記和歷史書籍，因此本題填入biographies一詞?？忌詰?yīng)特殊留意拼寫。

3．forty-six／46。本題針對第四類對象(出租車司機(jī))的閱讀時(shí)間設(shè)題。獨(dú)自第九句指出：Taxidriversmanageanaverageoffourhoursandforty-sixminutesaweek(出租車司機(jī)平均每周閱讀4小時(shí)46分鐘)。對于這類數(shù)字細(xì)節(jié)題，考生一是在聽音時(shí)應(yīng)作好記錄，二是應(yīng)直接用阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字回答，以避開消失拼寫問題。

4．1awyers。本題針對調(diào)查對象的身份而設(shè)置。獨(dú)白第十一、十二兩句說明白律師的狀況：Lawyersreadthehighestpercentageofcrimefiction…，即律師看罪案小說的比例最高?？忌灰辞逶嚲硭o表格，聽錄音時(shí)嚴(yán)格根據(jù)獨(dú)白交代信息的挨次做好相應(yīng)記錄即可確定正確答案。

5．contemporary。本題針對最終一類調(diào)查對象(老師)的狀況設(shè)題。對應(yīng)的信息位于獨(dú)自第十四句：Teachers’strongpreferenceisforcontemporaryfictionovertheclassics(老師們極為偏愛當(dāng)代小說而不是經(jīng)典作品)。考生需要留意拼寫的精確?????性。

6．Studyingpopulationgrowth。獨(dú)白其次段第一句在首次提到聯(lián)合國人口基金會的時(shí)候就對其職能進(jìn)

行了說明．．．．isresponsibleforstudyingpopulationgrowth，即它負(fù)責(zé)討論人口增長。

7．Over6billion。獨(dú)自第三段第一句指出：Theworldpopulationisnowmorethan6billionpeople，由于

最多只能填人3個(gè)單詞，因此將over等。

8．(almost)200%。答案信息對應(yīng)于第四段其次句：The49leastdevelopedcountriesareexpectedto

increasebyalmost200%，其中的increase指的就是人口增長，題目只是與此在表達(dá)上稍有不同。

9．theworld’sresources。在第四段第三句中，指出了聯(lián)合國的觀點(diǎn)：theuNagencysayspeople…theworld’sresourcesthanpeopleindevelopingcountries，留意其中的resources用的是復(fù)數(shù)形式。

10．Women。獨(dú)白最終一段提出了掌握人口增長的一些措施，其中其次、三句指出：Italsosavswomen…slowerpopulationgrowth,其中的needmore
