参考答案和解析
正确答案: B
解析:
录音中提到今年会展中有很多关于参展商和参加者稀疏的牢骚,人数从2000年的20万降到了5万,接着录音中对Comdex曾经的繁华和衰落的原因进行了描述。因此选项B符合录音内容。
【录音原文】
This year the mood at the show was unusually gloomy. There was much muttering about the sparsity of both exhibitors and attendees, whose numbers fell to around 50,000 this year from around 200, 000 in 2000. Veterans grumbled that a once-sprawling show that used to take five full days to absorb could now be covered in an hour or two. Once the biggest annual show in Las Vegas, Comdex has lately been eclipsed by the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which earlier this year attracted around 120, 000 visitors. This mirrors the shift in the technology industry’s centre of gravity, away from PCs towards sexier consumer-electronics devices—such as mobile phones, games consoles, digital-video recorders and flat-panel TVs.

    B.The demand of labor is less than the supply of labor
    C.The demand of labor is equal to the supply of labor
    D.The author is not clear about the relation between the demand of labor and the supply of labor

    答案:A
    解析:
    细节题。根据四个选项的关键词demand of labor和supply of labor可定位到第四、五、六段。第四、五段介绍技术变革和资本积累使劳动力需求增加;第六段提出由于人口增长、技术变革和国内资本积累,劳动力供应增加,最后一句提到“劳动力供给稳步增长,但增速低于劳动力需求”。由此可知,劳动力供不应求。

    All the adults in the UK are very lazy

    B

    C

    Pets will be in trouble if their owners don’t keep healthy

    D

    All people in Glasgow feel ashamed because they don’t get enough exercise


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    推理判断题。第二段提到“half of the adults are so lazy”,因此A项“所有的成年人都很懒惰”属于以偏概全;第六段提到“one in six children in the UK are very fat before they start school”,所以B项中的“一半”错误。倒数第二段提到“Glasgow, was shamed as the laziest city in the UK, with 75% asked thinking they do not get enough exercise”,所以D项中的“all the people”也属于以偏概全。因此C项正确。

    正确答案: C
    解析:
    是非题。第一段最后两句提到有孤独症状的人mentally deficient, yet most are proficient musicians,因此选项A表述正确。该段第二句指出“刺激大脑两边颞叶能唤醒癫痫病人的‘音乐记忆’”。而颞叶的损伤可能导致所谓的musicogenic epilepsy(音乐性癫痫),由此可知大脑中的某些部分(即颞叶)与音乐相关,因此选项B正确。第二段收据提到有1%的人suffer from amusia, or true tone deafness,可知某些人生来就对音乐完全不懂。只有选项D的内容没有提及。

    正确答案: D

    由原文第三段中的“He went on very successful reading tours and earned a lot of money.”可知,C项正确。文章第三段提到那个时候因为没有收音机或电视,人们喜欢听作者在公共场合读书,所以他四处读书并挣了很多钱,并没有说他喜欢旅行,故A项错误;第一段中提到他的很多书都是关于穷人和他们的苦难的,而不是关于他自己的童年,故B项错误;原文第二段提到,又回到学校上了两年学,狄更斯15岁离开了学校,后来写了The Pickwick Papers,并没有说他是为了要写这本书而离开学校,故D项错误。
