sinthepaperlastnight.從這句話中可以看出她得知職位信息的來源是thepaperlastnight，對應A選項。23.Whydidthewomanfindthejobappealing?【答案】BShecouldworkclosetoherfamily.【解析】本題關鍵詞是appealing，意為引起興趣的。女士提到她喜歡這份工作的原因是beneartothefamily.，close是near的同義替換詞，因此選擇B選項。24.WhathadthewomanbeendoinginGeneva?【答案】CWorkingasasecretary.【解析】女士提到她在日內瓦做了一些secretarialwork，也就是選項C中的secretary。雖然她也提到之前在大學學習，但是她取得的學位是adegreeinEnglish，而非選項D中的adegreeinFrench.25.Whatwasthewomanaskedtodointheend?【答案】CSendinawrittenapplicationassoonaspossible.【解析】對話中女士希望得到面試機會，但是男士要求先要遞交書面申請（replyawritingtotheadvertisement），并不是所有人都能得到面試機會，因此選擇答案C。第二篇：大學英語四級聽力真題高分句型總結在線學英語體驗請申請：洛基英語，中國在線英語教育領導品牌否定句ButSodidI.but?(199301-7)Iwish?but?(199301-9)Iwantto?but?(199301-10)planto??but?(199306-3)I’msorrytohearitbut?(199306-4)I’dlovetobut?(199301-8)(199401-3)(199501-7)(199701-8)(199801-9)I’dliketobut?(20XX09-2)(20XX12-6)I’msorryyoufeelthatwaybut?(199506-3)sure?but?(199506-4)Buttheproblemisthat?(199601-6)Thatmaybetrueforyou,butitcertainlyisn’ttrueforme(199701-6)Iwill?but?(199706-9)Thankyouforyouradvicebut?(199706-10)Thatistrue?but?(199801-6)But?isnteverything(20XX12-3)Ithought?but?(20XX12-5)Soundsgreat.But...(20XX01-3)Not/Never在線學英語體驗請申請：??doesn’tagreewithme(199306-1)Idon’tthinkso(199306-9)No,thankyou.(199501-6)I’mnotusedtodoingsth(199501-6)(20XX01-7)I’venever?(199606-6)(20XX01-1)Thereisnoneedto?(199901-3)Itdoesn’tmatter(20XX01-3)Idon’tthinkit?(20XX06-7)(20XX01-8)Idontknowforsure(20XX01-2)ImafraidIcan't?(20XX01-7)(20XX12-1)Ican’tbelieveit?(20XX09-4)Idontcare(20XX12-8)Ireallycan’tafford?(20XX12-10)“弄錯”Youmustbethinkingofsomeoneelse(199606-2)Youmusthavemadeamistake(20XX06-10)反問表否定Howcouldyoudosth(20XX01-5)(20XX01-9)really?(20XX01-8)Shouldhedothat?(20XX06-6)“成千上萬人瘋狂下載。。。在線學英語體驗請申請：更多價值連城的絕密英語學習資料，洛基內部秘密英語，技巧，策略請在網上申請報名”第三篇：20XX年12月大學英語四級聽力真題MP3下載20XX年12月大學英語四級聽力真題MP3下載11.W:Thiscrazybusschedulehasgotmecompletelyconfused.Ican’tfigureoutwhenmybustoClevelandleaves?M:Whydon’tyoujustgototheticketwindowandask?Q:Whatdoesthemansuggestthewomando?【答案】B)Goandaskthestaff.【解析】這是一道事實細節題。從對話中可知，女士搞不清楚列車時刻表，男士建議她去售票窗口咨詢。ticketwindow售票窗口。12.W:IreallyenjoyedtheTVspecialaboutdraftslastnight.Didyougethomeintimetoseeit?W:Oh,yes,butIwishIcouldhavestayedawakelongenoughtoseethewholething.Q:Whatdoesthemanmean?【答案】A)HefellasleepinthemiddleoftheTVprogram.【解析】這是道推理判斷題，考查男士的言下之意以及虛擬語氣。couldhavedone意為本可以做某事，但未做。從對話中可知，男士確實回家看了電視節目，但是他說道：IwishIcouldhavestayedawakelongenoughtoseethewholething.我真希望自己當時能再晚點睡著，這樣我就可以看完整場節目了。說明他沒有看完整場節目就睡著了。13.W:Airport,please.I’mrunningalittlelate.Sojusttakethefastestwayevenifit’snotthemostdirect.M:Sure,butthereisalotoftrafficeverywheretodaybecauseofthefootballgame.Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthewomanfromtheconversation?【答案】B)Sheisworriedaboutmissingherflight.【解析】這是道場景題，略有難度。剛開始，我們還無法很快判斷出該對話發生的場景，很多同學一聽到airport可能會誤以為對話發生在機場，但如果我們繼續聽下去，就會發現，該對話應該發生在出租車上，因為女士說了句“請選擇最快的路”，而男士說“因為有球賽，所以到處都交通擁堵”可以幫助我們再次確認對話發生的場景。選項A不對，原文是說要挑thefastestway哪怕不是themostdirectway；選項C也不準確，才剛上車，并沒有擁堵，司機只是提前說明因為球賽會碰到擁堵；選項D錯誤，女士是為了趕去乘飛機的，而不是去看球賽。14.W:MayImakearecommendation,sir?Ourseafoodwiththisspecialsauceisverygood.M:Thankyou,butIdon’teatshellfish.I’mallergictoit.Q:Wheredoesthisconversationmostprobablytakeplace?【答案】A)Atarestaurant【解析】這是道場景題，較為簡單。從對話中可知，女士希望向男士推薦一道菜，從首句中即可推斷出該對話最有可能發生在餐館中，男士說，他過敏，不吃貝殼類海鮮，可以幫助我們再次確認對話發生的場景。15.W:Nowonemorequestionifyoudon’tmind,whatpositioninthecompanyappealstoyoumost?M:Well,I’dlikethepositionofsalesmanagerifthatpositionisstillvacant.Q:Whatdowelearnabouttheman?【答案】A)Heisbeinginterviewedforajob.【解析】這是較為簡單的細節推理題。從position,company這幾個關鍵詞中，我們就可以快速判斷出此題的場景為面試，因此男士應該正在接受一場面試。C選項錯誤，他想要銷售經理的職位，但并不表示他本身就是銷售經理。16.M:Idon’tthinkIwanttoliveinthedormitorynextyear.Ineedmoreprivacy.W:Iknowwhatyoumean.Butcheckoutthecostifrentinganapartmentfirst.Iwon’tbesurprisedifyouchangeyourmind.Q:Whatdoesthewomanimply?【答案】B)Themanisunlikelytomoveoutofthedormitory.【解析】這是推理判斷題，詢問女士的言下之意。最后一句，女士表示“你改變主意的話，我不會覺得奇怪”，可知，男士不太可能搬出宿舍。A選項是個干擾項，雖然該選項看上去意思和B選項差不多，但對話中并沒有提到男士想找一個更安靜的地方，他想搬離寢室，是為了更多的個人空間。17.M:You’reontherighttrack.Ijustthinkyouneedtonarrowthetopicdown.W:Yeah,you’reright.IalwaysstartbychoosingtwoboardertopicswhenI’mdoingaresearchpaper.Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?【答案】D)Thewomanisgoingtomakehertopicmorefocused.【解析】這是推理判斷題。從對話中可知，男士希望女士縮小主題的范圍，女士回答“你是對的。”說明女士會采納男士的建議，縮小主題。18.W:Thispicnicshouldbeatthelastonewewentto,doesn’tit?M:Oh,yeah,wehadtospendthewholetimeinside.Goodthing,theweatherwascooperativethistime.Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthespeakersfromtheconversation?【答案】B)Theydidn’tquiteenjoytheirlastpicnic.【解析】這是推理判斷題。beat一詞是個難點，beat本意有“打敗”的意思，這次的野餐打敗了上次，即這次比上次好，下文中，男士說“上次我們不得不呆在室內，但這次天氣不錯。”可以再次確認他們不喜歡上次的野餐，因此，正確答案為B。ConversationOne【聽力原文】M:WhenIsayIliveinSweden,peoplealwayswanttoknowabouttheseasons.W:Theseasons?M:Yeah,youknowhowcolditisinwinter?Whatisitlikewhenthedaysaresoshort?W:Sowhatisitlike?M:Well,itiscold,verycoldinwinter.Sometimesitiscoldas26degreesbelowcentigrade.Andofcoursewhenyougoout,you’llwrapupwarm.Butinsideinthehousesit’salwaysverywarm,muchwarmerthanathome.SwedishpeoplealwayscomplainthatwhentheyvisitEngland,thehousesarecoldeveninthego
