s my whole reason for getting a pass i mean i was planning to take a swimming class employee but that s not how it works 学生在开头便说明了来意 表明整个对话是关于 pass 的 之后学生表示想到大学健身房参 加游泳课程 以为有个 pass 就可以上课 于是后面的对话就围绕雇员给学生解释 pass 的作 用展开 b c d 都可排除 question 2 why does the woman s initial excitement turn to disappointment a she is told that all swimming classes are full b she learns that she will have to

anything employee yes but they just come in and play or swim on their own but taking a class that s a different story i mean someone has to pay the instructors 学生说那些在健身馆里运动的人都是免费入馆的 but 是个标志词 雇员表示他们都是

one way that birds protect their young d one way that birds provide food for their young 答案 c 解析 从第 7 秒开始 professor ok today we re going to continue our discussion of the parenting behaviors of birds and we re gonna start by talking about what are known as distraction displays 教授开篇就说明主题 是 parenting behaviors of birds question 7 according to the lecture what do birds usually do when putting on a distraction display click on 2 answers a they imitate another kind of animal b they fly in circles around their nest c they cover their nest with their wings d they pretend they are sick or injured 答案 ad 解析 从第 1 分 23 秒开始 professor one pretty common distraction display is what s called the broken wing display and um in in a broken wing display the bird spreads and drags a wing or its tail and while it does that it slowly moves away from the nest so it it really looks like a bird with a broken wing and these broken wing displays can be pretty convincing another version of this kind of distraction display is where the bird creates the impression of a mouse or some other small animal that s running along the ground one another 句型是个提示 一般 distraction display 中的鸟类会有这两种表现 所以答案是 a d question 8 according to the lecture when do birds put on their most conspicuous distraction displays a just before they lay their eggs 本文章由尚友原创或整理 4 b immediately after they have laid their eggs c just before their young become independent d immediately after young have left the nest 答案 c 解析 从第 2 分 50 秒开始 professor now what s interesting is that birds have different levels of performance of these distraction displays they don t give their top performance their prime time performance every time what they do is they save their best performances their most conspicuous and most risky displays for the time just before the baby birds become able to take care of themselves now 是个关键词 前半句提示我们教授接下来就要说鸟类在什么时候会最明显地迷惑表 演 即为后半句 just before the baby birds become able to take care of themselves c 选项最为吻合 question 9 why does the professor say this a to introduce an explanation b to express uncertainty c to point out an error d to emphasize a point that should be obvious 答案 a 解析 从第 35 秒开始 重听部分 but sometimes certain species of birds do the exact opposite when a predator approaches they do their best to attract the attention of that predator now why would they do that professor but sometimes certain species of birds do the exact opposite when a predator approaches they do their best to attract the attention of that predator now why would they do that well they do that to draw the predator away from their nest away from their eggs or their young birds and the behaviors that the birds engage in to distract predators are called distraction displays well 这个标志词之后的就是对自己提出的 now why would they do that 这句问题的解 答 因此 教授说这段话的用意即是为了提出一个解释 question 10 why does the professor say this a to explain the behavior of the predator b to emphasize that predators have excellent hunting skills c to state the purpose of birds behavior d to emphasize the risks involved in a distraction display 答案 c 本文章由尚友原创或整理 5 解析 从第 1 分 06 秒开始 重听部分重听部分 you know something that ll make the predator think ah here s an easy meal professor most of the time when birds are engaging in distraction displays they re going to be pretending either that they have an injury or that they re ill or that they re exhausted you know something that ll make the predator think ah here s an easy meal 在说这句话之前教授在说鸟类通常会假装自己受伤等迷惑表演 而说 you know something that ll make the predator think ah here s an easy meal 论述了鸟类这样做能达到怎样的效果 这样迷惑表演的目的是什么 答案是 c question 11 why does the professor say this a to describe the behavior of an injured sandpiper b to give an example of a well performed broken wing display c to show why some sandpipers fail to distract predators d to distinguish the sandpiper s display from another kind of display 答案 d 解析 从第 2 分 04 秒开始 重听部分重听部分 but not to give the impression that its wing s broken professor now what the purple sandpiper does is when a predator approaches it drags its wings er but not to give the impression that its wing s broken but to create the illusion that it has a second pair of legs 这段话出现在教授在说另一种 distraction display 里 而教授以 sandpiper 为例 必定是 sandpiper 的行为不同于上一种 distraction display not to but to 的句型给予提示 是为了区分两者 question 12 what aspect of architecture in the united states is the lecture mainly about a the differences between rural and urban styles of housing b the reasons for popularity of a particular type of house c the various styles of houses that are popular in new england d the decorative details that are typical of houses built in new england 答案 b 解析 从第 1 分 59 秒开始 professor uh now why did the cape cod style house become so popular in the northeast now why

should have fewer rooms b a house s design should reflect the inhabitants needs c the materials for a house should be selected before the house is designed d houses in cold harsh climates should be built with inexpensive materials 答案 b 解析 从第 2 分 24 秒开始 professor what does this concept that form should follow function how would it be applied to housing design sue well if it means that the design of a building should be based on the needs of the people who use it then well the architect has to be very practical to think about the people who ll actually be living in the house or working in the office building whatever 在教授提出 how would it be applied to housing design 这个问题之后 sue 的 well 提示 了 sue 的回答就是答案 sue 的回答围绕着 the needs of the people who use it 所以答案为 b question 14 why does the woman refer to visiting her grandparents a to explain why she is interested in residential architecture b to explain why she knows a lot about the history of cape cod c to explain why she is familiar with cape cod houses d to explain why she enjoys visiting rural new england 答案 c 解析 从第 3 分 04 秒开始 professor good of course for a cape cod house it might be even more accurate to say that form also follows climate who knows what the climate s like on cape cod bob cold in the winter sue and whenever i visit my grandparents it s really wet it s usually either raining or snowing or foggy and windy too i guess because it s so exposed to the ocean sue 提到自己 visiting grandparents 是为了说明 cape cod 的气候 而回想之前教授提的问 题 仍然是与 cape cod houses 相关的话题 此问题很难分辨 也无标志词提示 需要自己的理解 c 答案最为接近 question 15 according to the lecture what are two features of cape cod houses that were influenced by climate click on 2 answers 本文章由尚友原创或整理 7 a the thickness of walls b the slope of the roofs c the number of windows d the simplicity of the exterior e the size of the chimney 答案 bd 解析 从第 4 分 04 秒开始 professor and look at the slope of the roof the steep angle helps keep off all that rain and snow that accumulates in the winter uh another thing cape cod houses usually face south to take advantage of of the sun s warmth through the windows that s helpful in winter now what can you tell me about the chimney about its location sue well it s in the middle because does that have something to do with heating the houses i mean since the heat never has to travel very far bob that d mean you can heat the house more efficiently right professor exactly now see how the house has very little exterior decoration that s also typical of early cape cod houses 两种特征相隔的比较远 但是还是有 that s also 这样的词来提示 that s also 前说的即 为另一种特征 答案是 b d question 16 according to the professor what contributed to the attitude of conformity in rural new england communities during the 1600s and 1700s a people depended on their neighbors for their own survival b people living in rural areas often had moved there from cities c people had to live very close to their neighbors d people had limited access to information from outside their community 答案 a 解析 从第 5 分 25 秒开始 professor but it was more than just a matter of money in these rural areas people depended on each other for survival neighbors had to help and support each other in a difficult environment so you didn t want to appear to be showing off you d want to avoid anything that might set you apart from your neighbors the same people you might need to help you someday so so all this help to create an attitude of conformity in a community but so so 的句型 非常清楚地表明了自己的观点 so 之前的就是教授的见 解所在 答案为 a question 17 本文章由尚友原创或整理 8 why does the professor say this a to indicate that the student s

talk about a an academic interest they have b reasons why they deserve to be hired c their educational background d the classes they hope to teach 答案 a 解析 从第 48 秒开始 student you mean like a lecture professor yes like a sample lecture on one of their academic interests yes 这个连接词表达了教授对于学生想法的肯定 表明学生对于 applicants 的理解是正确 的 教授也在句后补充答案 所以答案为 a question 4 why does the professor mention that one of the

the hiring process c he does not want to be responsible for any decisions that are made d he does not understand why the professor has asked him the question 答案 d 解析 从第 24 秒开始 重听部分重听部分 what s that got to do with me professor i think you know the department is looking to hire a new professor are you familiar with our hiring process student no but what s that got to do with me but 是个助听词 学生在表示了不知道流程之后用了 but 来提出自己的疑问 即为什 么教授会问他这样的问题 question 6 what is the lecture mainly about a the effect of the decrease in temperatures on wetlands b the use of computer models to analyze temperature patterns c the theory that land development affected the climate of south florida d the importance of the citrus industry to the south florida economy 答案 c 解析 从第 20 秒开始 professor uh but these are the obvious changes but there are also less obvious changes like the climate one interesting case of this uh of changes in the local land use causing changes in climate specifically the temperature is in

farmland d to explain why people want to build farms there 答案 c 解析 本文章由尚友原创或整理 11 从第 1 分 52 秒开始 professor oh yes farmers moved south but the land was not suitable for farming you can t grow oranges in wetlands so farmers had to transform the wetlands into land suitable for farming to do that you have to drain the water from the land move the water elsewhere and divert the water sources such as rivers hundreds of miles of drainage canals were built in the wetlands 在最后听到了需要的关键词 canals 再回忆之前听到的内容 从 so 这个标志词开始的 就是答案 即为 c 本题的难处在于 canals 本身这个词的截取以及对于整段内容的理解 对于标志词的敏感 度 question 8 what does the professor imply about major weather patterns such as ei nino a she does not believe they are the main cause of the changes in florida s climate b she is certain that they have caused a worldwide
