youdon’tmind,whatpositioninthecompanyappealstoyoumost?M:Well,I’dlikethepositionofsalesmanagerifthatpositionisstillvacant。Q:Whatdowelearnabouttheman?【答案】Heisbeinginterviewedforajob。【解析】这是较为简单的细节推理题。从position,company这几个关键词中，我们就可以快速判断出此题的场景为面试，因此男士应该正在接受一场面试。C选项错误，他想要销售经理的职位，但并不表示他本身就是销售经理。16.M:Idon’tthinkIwanttoliveinthedormitorynextyear.Ineedmoreprivacy。W:Iknowwhatyoumean.Butcheckoutthecostifrentinganapartmentfirst.Iwon’tbesurprisedifyouchangeyourmind。Q:Whatdoesthewomannimply?【答案】Themanisunlikelytomoveoutofthedormitory。【解析】这是推理判断题，询问女士的言下之意。最后一句，女士表示“你改变主意的话，我不会觉得奇怪”，可知，男士不太可能搬出宿舍。A选项是个干扰项，虽然该选项看上去意思和B选项差不多，但对话中并没有提到男士想找一个更安静的地方，他想搬离寝室，是为了更多的个人空间。17.M:You’reontherighttrack.Ijustthinkyouneedtonarrowthetopicdown。W:Yeah,you’reright.IalwaysstartbychoosingtwoboardertopicswhenI’mdoingaresearchpaper。Q:Whatdowelearnfromtheconversation?【答案】Thewomanisgoingtomakehertopicmorefocused。【解析】这是推理判断题。从对话中可知，男士希望女士缩小主题的范围，女士回答“你是对的。”说明女士会采纳男士的建议，缩小主题。18.W:Thispicnicshouldbeatthelastonewewentto,doesn’tit?M:Oh,yeah,wehadtospendthewholetimeinside.Goodthing,theweatherwascooperativethistime。Q:Whatdowelearnaboutthespeakersfromtheconversation?【答案】Theydidn’tquiteenjoytheirlastpicnic。【解析】这是推理判断题。beat一词是个难点，beat本意有“打败”的意思，这次的野餐打败了上次，即这次比上次好，下文中，男士说“上次我们不得不呆在室内，但这次天气不错。”可以再次确认他们不喜欢上次的野餐，因此，正确答案为B。ConversationOnenM:WhenIsayIliveinSweden,peoplealwayswanttoknowabouttheseasons。W:Theseasons?M:Yeah,youknowhowcolditisinwinter?Whatisitlikewhenthedaysaresoshort?W:Sowhatisitlike?M:Well,itiscold,verycoldinwinter.Sometimesitiscoldas26degreesbelowcentigrade.Andofcoursewhenyougoout,you’llwrapupwarm.Butinsideinthehousesit’salwaysverywarm,muchwarmerthanathome.SwedishpeoplealwayscomplainthatwhentheyvisitEngland,thehousesarecoldeveninthegoodwinter。W:Andwhataboutthedarkness?M:Well,yeah,aroundChristmastimethere’sonlyonehourofdaylight,soyoureallylooksforwardtothespring.Itissometimesabitdepressing.Butyouseethesummersareamazing,fromMaytoJulyintheNorthofSwedenthesunneversets.It’sstilllightinthemidnight.Youcanwalkinthemountainsandreadanewspaper。W:Oh,yeah,thelandofthemidnightsun。M:Yeah,that’sright,butit’swonderful.Youwon’tstayupallnight.AndtheSwedesmakesmostofitoftentheystartedworkearlierinsummerandthenleaveatabout2or3intheafternoon,sothattheycanreallyenjoythelongsummerevenings.They’dliketoworkhard,butplayhard,too.IthinkLondonersworklongerhours,butI’mnotsurethisisagoodthing。Q19:Whatdowelearnaboutthemanfromtheconversation?A)HelikesSwedenbetterthanEngland。B)Heprefershotweathertocoldweather。C)HeisanEnglishlivinginnSweden。D)HevisitsLondonnearlyeverywinter。【答案】【解析】本题为推断题。根据文章大意可推断得出。整篇文章中，分，一处是男士说，“SwedishpeoplealwayscomplainthatwhentheyvisitEngland,thehousesarecoldeveninthegoodwinter。”，瑞典人在冬天去拜访英格兰时，会抱怨英格兰室温太冷。另一处是男士在谈到冬天天气时，说道：“Itissometimesabitdepressing。”长时间寒冷的天气令人沮丧。因此可推断得出，男士更喜欢hotweather，热天气。所以，答案为：Heprefershotweathertocoldweather。Q20:WhatdoSwedishpeoplecomplainaboutwhentheyvisitEnglandinwinter?A)ThebadweatherB)Thecoldhouses。C)Thegloomywinter。D)Thelongnight。【答案】【解析】对话中，当男士介绍瑞典的极寒天气时，谈到只要穿暖，出门很暖，而室内更暖和，为了强调这一观点，男士继续说道：“SwedishpeoplealwayscomplainthatwhentheyvisitEngland,thehousesarecoldeveninthegoodwinter。”说是瑞典人在冬天去拜访英格兰时，会抱怨英格兰室温太冷。所以，答案为：Thecoldhouses。Q21:HowdoesthemandescribetheshorthourofdaylightaroundChristmasinSweden?nA)Delightful。B)Painful。C)Depressing。D)Refreshing。【答案】【解析】女士问：“Andwhataboutthedarkness?”男士答道：“aroundChristmastimethere’sonlyonehourofdaylight,soyoureallylooksforwardtothespring。”临近圣诞节的时候，每天仅有一小时为白天，所以人们都非常向往春天，希望春天快点到来。然后，进一步强调性地评论道：“Itissometimesabitdepressing。”有时候真有点令人沮丧。因此，本题答案为：Depressing。Q22:WhatdoesthemansayabouttheSwedishpeople?A)Theyoftenstayuplatereading。B)Theyworkhardandplayhard。C)Theyliketogocampinginsummer。D)Theytrytoearnmoreandspendmore。【答案】【解析】男士在谈到瑞典的极昼天气时，着重谈了瑞典人在极昼天气的工作情况，并进一步对瑞典人的工作习惯进行了评价。男士说道：“They’dliketoworkhard,butplayhard,too。”瑞典人既能在工作时努力工作，又能在能玩时拼命玩。所以，本题答案为：Theyworkhardandplayhard。ConversationTwoW:Whatkindoftrainingdoesoneneedtogointothistypeofjob?nM:That’saverygoodquestion.Idon’tthinkthereisany,specifically.W:Forexample,inyourcase,whatisyoureducationalbackground?M:Well,IdidadegreeinFrenchatNottingham.Afterthat,Ididcareersworkinsecondaryschoolslikethecareersguidancepeoplehereisintheuniversity.ThenIwentintolocalgovernmentbecauseIfoundIwasmoreinterestedintheadministrativeside.Thenprogressedontouniversities.Sotherewasn’tanyplanandtherewasnospecifictraining.Thereareplentyoftrainingcoursesinmanagementtechniquesandcommitteeworkwhichyoucanattendnow.W:Butinthefirstplace,youdidaFrenchdegree.M:Inmytime,therewasn’tadegreeyoucoulddoforadministration.IthinkmostoftheadministratorsI’vecomeacrosshavedegreesandallsortsofthings.W:Well,Iknowinmycase,IdidanEnglishliteraturedegreeandIdidn’treallyexpecttoendupdoingwhatIamdoingnow.M:Quite。W:ButyouarelocaltoNottingham,actually?IsthereanyreasonwhyyouwenttoNottinghamUniversity?M:No,no,IcomefromthenorthofEngland,fromwestYorkshire.NottinghamwasoneoftheuniversitiesIputonmylist.AndIlikethelookofit.Thecampusisjustbeautiful.W:Yes,indeed.Let’ssee.WereyoufromtheindustrialpartofYorkshire?M:Yes,fromthew
