Passage 1
16. What does the speaker say characterizes American campuses?
答案:(A) The cozy communal life.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。本篇文章開頭即指出 'Few foreign universities put much emphasis on the cozy communal life that characterizes American campuses from clubs and sports teams to student publications and drama societies.'此可知美國校園的特點(diǎn)就在于集體生活,比如俱樂部、運(yùn)動隊(duì)、學(xué)生刊物以及戲劇社團(tuán)。
17. What does Brown University president Vartan Gregorian say about students' daily life?
答案:(C) It is as important as their learning experience.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。布朗大學(xué)校長在說到學(xué)生日常生活時說“In America it is assumed that a student’s daily life is as important as his learning experience. . .” 可見在美國學(xué)生平日生活和他們的學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)歷同等重要。
18. In what way is the United States unrivaled according to the speaker?
答案:(C) It provides numerous options for students.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。聽力原文中說到America’s menu of options—research universities, state institutions, private liberal-arts schools, community colleges, religious institutions, military academies—is unrivaled.其實(shí)歸根結(jié)底就是America's menu of options is unrivaled.美國各類學(xué)校應(yīng)有盡有任你選。
19. What does the speaker say about universities in Europe and Japan?
答案:(B) They are responsible merely to their Ministry of Education.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。說到歐洲和日本大學(xué)時,原文"In Europe and Japan, universities are answerable only to a ministry of education, which sets academic standards and distributes money."中的"answerable only to…"意思和"be responsible merely to"相同,即“只對……負(fù)責(zé),只聽從……的”。
Passage 2
20. What does the speaker say about the sea link ferry?
答案:(D)It is leaving Folkestone in about five minutes.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。聽力原文為"We are due to leave Folkestone in about five minutes."渡船將在五分鐘內(nèi)出發(fā)。其他選項(xiàng)信息都沒在聽力中出現(xiàn)。
21. Where is the snack bar situated?
答案:(D) In the front of A deck.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。聽力原文為"There's a snack bar serving sandwiches and hot and cold refreshments situated in the front of A deck."。小吃店是位于甲板A上。基本信息重現(xiàn)。
22. What does the speaker say about the lounge on B deck?
答案:(A) It is for the sole use of passengers travelling with cars.
【點(diǎn)評】:細(xì)節(jié)題。聽力原文為"Passengers are reminded that the lounge on B deck is for the sole-use of passengers traveling with cars..." B甲板上的休息室是專門給那些開車旅游的乘客的?;拘畔⒅噩F(xiàn)。
Passage 3
23. B. It was named after its discoverer.
24. C. Cro-Magnon people painted animals they hunted and ate.
25. A. They know little about why the paintings were created.
【點(diǎn)評】本文為科普類說明文,主要圍繞法國東南部的一個著名洞穴——肖維巖洞(Grotte Chauvet)展開。肖維巖洞由Jean-Marie Chauvet在1994年圣誕夜首次發(fā)現(xiàn),故以Chauvet的名字命名。與法國同時期其他洞穴不同的是,肖維巖洞內(nèi)的動物壁畫并不是被捕獵的動物,而是那些大型、有力而威猛的動物。許多專家們由此認(rèn)為,壁畫上的動物是當(dāng)時人們精神生活的象征。本文由于涉及國外藝術(shù)文化的話題,對許多考生來說比較生疏。但只要對篇章的開頭及結(jié)尾、相關(guān)關(guān)鍵詞做到有效把握,答出問題也是比較容易的。

注意:此部分試題請?jiān)诖痤}卡1上作答。
Intolerance is the art of ignoring any views that differ from your own. It __26__ itself in hatred, stereotypes, prejudice, and __27__. Once it intensifies people, intolerance is nearly impossible to overcome. But why would anyone want to be labeled as intolerance? Why would people want to be __28__ about the world around them? Why would one want to be part of the problem in America, instead of the solution?
There are many of the explanations for intolerant attitude, some __29__. childhood. It is likely that intolerant forks grew up __30__ intolerant parents and the cycle of prejudice has simply continued for __31__. Perhaps intolerant people are so set in their ways that they find it easier to ignore anything that might not __32__ to their limited view of life. Or maybe intolerant students have simply never been __33__ to anyone different from themselves. But none of these reasons is an excuse for allowing the intolerance to continue.
Intolerance should not be confused with disagreement. It is, of course, possible to disagree with an opinion without being intolerant of it. If you understand a belief but still don't believe in that specific belief, that's fine. You are __34__ your opinion. As a matter of fact, __35__ dissenters (持異議者) are important for any belief. If we all believed the same things, we would never grow, and we would never learn about the world around us. Intolerance does not stem from disagreement. It stems from fear. And fear stems from ignorance.
