第5题：
单选题Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?AMany people protested in the past six months.
BMany people threw tomatoes at the German Chancellor.
CMany people threw eggs at an important member of the German Chancellor’s Social Democrats.
DMany people threw eggs at the German Chancellor, but he was not hit.
正确答案： C解析：
事实细节的找寻和判断。根据录音结尾提到的“Tens of thousands have joined protests in the last six weeks…”，可知，这次抗议持续了六周，而非选项A中的six months。另外，录音中提到“The mushy remains of a tomato thrown at a prominent member of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats”，可知抗议过程中有人朝Gerhard Schroeder总理领导的社会民主党中一位重要人物投掷番茄，由此可见，B项和C项的说法均有误。再者，录音最后的“Schroeder himself has been pelted with eggs, none of which hit their mark”，表明人们朝德国总理Schroeder扔过鸡蛋，但未击中，可见，选项D与录音原文内容相符。
【录音原文】
The mushy remains of a tomato thrown at a prominent member of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats has posed a legal dilemma for authorities trying to assess how to punish the thrower. Police investigating the fruit, thrown by an unemployed protestor at the premier of the state of Brandenburg, said they have concluded it was a yellow tomato. Had it been a soft red one, the man would have faced a lesser charge of causing malicious damage. A harder, green tomato could carry the tougher charge of bodily harm. A yellow one is somewhere in between. “In these types of cases it has to do with the consistency of the fruit,” said a spokeswoman for the court in the eastern city of Cottbus. No decision on the charge has yet been reached. Social democratic politicians have been facing the wrath of the public in recent months, especially in the economically depressed east where many people face painful jobless benefit cuts from January 2005. Tens of thousands have joined protests in the last six weeks and Schroeder himself has been pelted with eggs, none of which hit their mark. -

BMcDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.
CMcDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.
DMcDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.
正确答案： D解析：
文章首段提到“Since its founding in 1948”，麦当劳成立于1948年，故A项正确；由“McDonald’s has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.”可知，麦当劳起初规模很小，而现在全球3万多个城市都有麦当劳的分店，故C、D两项正确。B项“麦当劳在全世界每个城市都有分店”过于绝对，首段只提到其在118个国家有分店。故本题选B。 -

单选题According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?AThe current deal is scheduled to be completed within half a year.
BWhat Toshiba buys is a nuclear power supplier.
CThe purchased corporation is headquartered in Pennsylvania.
DNew nuclear plants are likely to be built in India by Toshiba.
正确答案： A解析：
事实细节的找寻和判断。录音首句便指出东芝公司正在购买nuclear plant builder Westinghouse Electric，可知其购买的是核电站建造公司Westinghouse Electric，而非选项B所提到的a nuclear power supplier（核能供应商）。因此选B。
【录音原文】
Japanese electronics maker Toshiba said Monday that it was buying nuclear plant builder Westinghouse Electric, the US-based unit of the British government’s British Nuclear Fuels, for US $5.4 billion.
Toshiba Chief Executive Atsutoshi Nishida said that while the price might seem quite high, Toshiba had a lot of competition for the company and that the future growth and profit potential of the business made it the correct price.
“By 2020 the market for nuclear power generation is expected to grow 50 percent compared to 2005,” Nishida said at a London news conference. “Toshiba is responding to this challenge by acquiring Westinghouse.”
Upon completion of the acquisition, Toshiba expects its nuclear power business to expand to three times the current level by 2015 as a result of operational and technological synergies, Toshiba said in a statement.
Toshiba expects to close the deal within six months and is not expecting regulatory troubles, Nishida said. Westinghouse will keep its headquarters in Pennsylvania, as well as its equipment, employees and trademarks, he said.
Toshiba, which makes electronic goods including DVD players, semiconductors, electric motors and power systems, is preparing for an expected surge of new investment in power plants in China, India and the US.
Westinghouse, which has built most of the nuclear reactors in the United States, is likely to design the plant and service them when they come online. -

BThe acceleration of language death didn’t start until 200 years ago.
CThe study is conducted with the financial support of UNESCO.
DThe language of Ainu was long neglected before the late l980s.
正确答案： D解析：
事实细节的找寻和判断。录音中提到“However, the past 300 years or so have seen a dramatic increase in the death or disappearance of languages…”，由此可知，大约300年前，某些语言就出现了加速消亡的现象。因此选项B（直到200年前，语言才出现加速消亡的现象）与录音原文不符。
【录音原文】
Half of the 6,000 or so languages spoken in the world are under threat and a wealth of human knowledge could be lost with them, according to a new study. The study says pressures from dominant languages such as English, French, Spanish and Russian are drowning out minority tongues at an accelerating pace. “The dying and disappearance of languages has been going on for thousands of years as a natural event in human society, but at a slow rate,” says the study funded by UNESCO. “However, the past 300 years or so have seen a dramatic increase in the death or disappearance of languages leading to a situation today in which 3,000 or so languages that are still spoken are endangered, seriously endangered or dying.” The study cites several reasons for the disappearance of languages, ranging from repressive government policies and assimilation to economic pressures, migratory trends, disease and natural disasters. While sounding the alarm, it notes that a determined multilingual approach can rescue even the most threatened tongues. In Japan, only eight elderly people spoke Ainu on Hokkaido Island by the late l980s after decades of official neglect, but promotional policies have since revived the language. -
