47、le and try to keep the true spirit of Christmas in my heart. W: Im glad to hear it. What does the woman try to do in the conversation? 解析 不定式选项，估计问“目的，打算”。四个选项的宾语均是him，进一步确定是问女士的目的。整个对话内容都是围绕说话人对圣诞节的态度展开的，女士一直在劝说男士不要太在乎钱，只要开心就好。因此正确答案为C项。A项不正确，女士开导男士，并非仅仅为了让他开心。选项B、D与原文不符。 6.A.At a Christmas party.B

48、.Not long before Christmas.C.At the New Years Eve.D.Not long before Christmas.答案:B听力原文 When does the conversation take place? 解析 细节题。女士问男士怎么还没有准备去购物，还有一个星期就是圣诞节了。因此不难判断，对话发生在圣诞节前几天。选项B正确。 7.A.Expectation.B.Complaint.C.Enjoyment.D.Indifference.答案:B听力原文 What is the mans feeling about Christmas? 解析 推断题

49、。对话一开始男士就强调圣诞节让他觉得心力交瘁(get stressed out)，因此A项和C 项肯定不对。接下来男士便提到他妻子会为圣诞节花很多钱，他得花很长时间才能把所有的账全部还清。显而易见，他是在抱怨，因此选项B正确。 8.A.Paying off Christmas bills.B.Trying to earn more money.C.Preparing for Christmas.D.Limiting his wifes expense.答案:C听力原文 What will the man most probably do after the conversation? 解析 推

50、断题。四个动词(分词)选项标明，这是典型的长对话尾巴题，问对话中人物下一步的行动。到对话末尾，男士承认女士说的完全正确，并表示自己会照女士所说的去做，那么他很有可能为圣诞节积极地做准备，因此C项正确。A项是他抱怨的内容，B、D项并未提及。 Section CDirections: In this section, you will hear three passages.
