BThe advantages and disadvantages of living in a cosmopolitan city.
CThe danger and threat of population explosion in urban areas.
DThe high living standard of Singapore, London, Paris and New York.
正确答案： C解析：
主旨题。录音开头讲话者便表示自己在一个世界性城市——新加坡，生活了五年，接着表明自己很喜欢那里的生活方式，并以事例进行具体说明。然后，讲话者承认住在这样的城市也有不利之处，并作了具体阐释。由此可见，该段录音主要介绍了住在世界性大城市的优点和弊端。因此选项B能全面概括录音的主要内容。
【录音原文】
For five years I lived in Singapore, a metropolis of almost three million people. Like London, Paris and New York, Singapore is a cosmopolitan city, with people from different parts of the world living and working together. I enjoyed the urban lifestyle I led there, and made the most of the super amenities, ranging from the excellent shops to some of the best restaurants in the world. In the evenings and at weekends there were always cultural events, with such diverse attractions as classical Western music, and exhibition of Malay art or a Chinese opera in the street, it was difficult to get bored. Perhaps most impressive, however, was the remarkable transport infrastructure, with excellent roads, a swift and efficient bus service and a state-of-the-art underground system which could whisk commuters from the suburbs straight into the heart of the city. This is particularly important, as the government banned private cars from entering the central business district during the morning and afternoon rush hours to reduce congestion on the roads and pollution from the exhausts.
Of course, living in a city like this has its disadvantages as well. For a start, the cost of living can be very high—renting an apartment, for example, is very expensive. And as the city is expanding, there are a lot of building sites where new apartments are continually being built to deal with the population explosion which is a direct result of the government encouraging people to have more children. -
第21题：
单选题The author expresses disappointment at the end of the first paragraph (lines 9－11) primarily because she ______.Ahad expected to feel differently about entering Paris
Bdid not want to carry her luggage to her destination
Cwas fired and hungry from the long plane ride
Dhad hoped Paris would be less dirty
Erealized she brought too many belongings
正确答案： E解析：
作者提到她的感受“This was not the climactic moment I had anticipated”，故选A项最合适。 -
第22题：
单选题The author of the text puts the word “deepest” (line 13, paragraph 3) in quotation marks most probably in order to ______.Asignal her reservations about the accuracy of psychohistorians’ claims for their work
Bdraw attention to a contradiction in the psychohistorians’ method
Cemphasize the major difference between the traditional historians’ method and that of psychohistorians
Ddisassociate her opinion of the psychohistorians’ claims from her opinion of their method
正确答案： C解析：
推断题。题干所在句子提到Psychohistorians, convinced of the absolute rightness of their own theories，由absolute“绝对”一词可以看出作者想要表达的否定之意，因此对deepest加引号是表示作者对这一看法持保留态度。 -
第23题：
单选题What is worth nothing from the example of Athens County is that _____.Agreater efforts should be made to improve people’s living standards
B70 percent of the people there have been, employed for two years
C50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfare
Dthe living standards of most people are going down
正确答案： B解析：
细节推断题。B项“70%的人就业已达2年”。第二段称70%的脱离福利照顾的人在过去两年里参加了工作，但并没说该郡70%的人参加工作已达2年，故B项有误。C项“50%的人口不再依赖福利政策”，文而章说雅典郡的贫困率在30%以上，为全国贫困率的2倍，显然C项错误。D项“大多数人的生活水平在下降”也与文章不符。A项“为提高人民生活水准尚须做出巨大努力”与第三段“作为穷人的代言人，这表明，尚须做更多的努力”属同义转述。因此，A项为答案。 -
第24题：
单选题Which author wrote about his or her own experience in the above works?AJ. K. Rowling
