六级标准听力测试模拟四Section A答案解析

　　Section A

　　11. W: What a fascinating speaker! It was really food for thought.

　　M: Oh, I’m not sure I’d go along with you there. I kept drifting off quite a few times.

　　Q: What did the man think of the speaker?

　　【解析】选[D]。food for thought指“精神食粮”。I’m not sure I’d go along with you there表明男士并不同意女士的看法。drifting off ≈ gradually fall asleep，意为“昏昏”，由kept drifting off quite a few times可知，男士觉得演讲人的话很无聊、乏味(too boring)。

　　12. W: I can’t believe it. I have been waiting for this latest show for ages and it totally slipped my mind.

　　M: Don’t be too upset about it. You might be able to catch it since the organizers are thinking to have another opening next week.

　　Q: What does the man suggest the woman to do?

　　【解析】选[B]。女士因为忘了去看表演(it totally slipped my mind)而懊恼不已，男士说筹办方正考虑重新组织一次表演，可见他是想建议女士耐心等待，看是否还有一次机会，选项[B]与此相符。encore意为“再唱或再表演”。

　　13. W: I hear you’re working as a market surveyor this summer. It’s got to be awfully difficult asking the same old questions every day.

　　M: Well, it is challenging work, but I get to meet lots of new people and the pay is decent enough.

　　Q: What does the man think of his new job?

　　【解析】选[B]。decent用在口语中指“相当好的，像样的”，the pay is decent enough ≈rewarding，再结合but前面的it is challenging work可知[B]为答案。

　　14. M: I think I’ll read ahead a few chapters, just to get the general picture.

　　W: Try pacing yourself. Slowly but surely you’ll understand it all.

　　Q: What does the woman suggest?

　　【解析】选[C]。男士打算往前多读几章，了解书中梗概。女士建议他不要心急，并表示慢慢读来最后终归会理解全书的意思。pace oneself意为“调整做某事的速度”，这表明女士认为男士不应该以太快的速度一下子读太多(learn too much too fast)。

　　15. W: My headaches are terrible. Maybe I need more sleep.

　　M: Actually, you need less sun and some aspirin. Plus it would help you if you wear a hat. The sun is too bright.

　　Q: What most probably caused the woman’s headache?

　　【解析】选[D]。结合男士话中的you need less sun, wear a hat及The sun is too bright推测，女士头疼的原因很可能是阳光太强烈了，选项[D]正确。Actually常暗示对前面内容的否定，即男士并不认为女士是因为缺乏睡眠才头疼。

　　16. M: How was your dinner at the new French restaurant yesterday?

　　W: We didn’t eat there. We drove all the way down there only to find it’s not open on Monday, so we had our dinner at the small Chinese restaurant next door.

　　Q: What did the woman say about the new French restaurant?

　　【解析】选[D]。only to find后常接不好的或令人意想不到结果。it’s not open on Monday, so we had our dinner at the small Chinese restaurant表明女士并没有去成新开的法国餐厅，因此她也就不会知道那里的食物味道如何，选项[D]正确。
