Conversation One
W: 【19】Bob, can we really afford a holiday? We’re paying for this house and the furniture is on HP and...
M: Now listen, Peggy. You work hard and I work hard. 【20】We’re not talking about whether we can have a holiday. We’re talking about where and when.
W: Shall we go to Sweden?
M: Sweden is colder than Sheffield. I’d rather not go to Sweden.
W: What about Florida? Florida’s warmer than Sheffield.
M: Yes, but it’s a long way. How long does it take to get from here to Florida?
W: All right. Let’s go to Hawaii.
M: You must be joking. How much would it cost for the two of us?
W: But the brochure says the problem of money will disappear. Bob, where do you really want to go?
M: 【21】I’m thinking of Wales or Scotland. Do you know why?
W: Yes. They’re right on our doorstep and so close to home.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What might be the possible relationship between the two speakers?
20. What are they talking about?
21. Where does Bob want to go?
19. 答案D
解析：從選項可以判斷問題是關于兩個人之間的關系。聽力對話一開始，說兩個人已經買了房子，還買了家具，隨后兩個人討論度假的問題。從中可以判斷兩個人最有可能的關系是夫妻。注意聽力開頭提到的HP指hire purchase，為“分期付款”的意思。
20. 答案B
解析：根據選項，考生推斷問題可能是兩個人討論的話題。聽力開始，男士說，我們要討論的，不是能不能去度假，而是什么時候，去哪里度假。所以選項B為正確答案。
21. 答案C
解析：四個選項都是地點，考生推斷問題可能是他們度假的地方。聽力最后，男士想著要去威爾士或蘇格蘭。而選項A、B、D都是女士建議的地方。
Conversation Two
W: What a beautiful day! It’s a shame to stay inside all day.
M: Do you have a suggestion?
W: Actually, I guess I do. Why don’t we go for a run?
M: Well, I really don’t like running.
W: OK, then. How about roller skating? Don’t you have a pair of skates?
M: Now that you mention it, I do have a pair. But where could we skate? That’s not an indoor skating rink.
W: 【22】You know the bike path on the other side of campus—the one that goes through the trees?
M: Yes?
W: Well, I’ve seen people skating there, and it’s a really pretty area.
M: That’s true, but I also remember that there are some hills over there.
W: So what?
M: So, I don’t mind going up hills, but I hate going down them, 【23】because I’m not good at stopping. In fact, the only way for me to stop is to jump off the path and hope I land on some thing soft.
W: Tell you what. 【24】I’ll show you how I stop, and if it doesn’t work you’ll still have the grass to fall back on.
M: OK. I’m ready, but 【25】I think we should bring something to drink.
W: 【25】Good idea! What’s in the dorm fridge?
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. Where does the woman want to skate?
23. Why doesn’t the man like skating on hills?
24. What does the woman offer to do for the man?
25. What will the speakers probably do next?
22. 答案B
解析：選項是一些地點，因此在聽力過程中要特別關注地點的表達。聽力一開始，女士覺得天氣很好，建議出去玩，最后選擇了skate。男士問，在哪里滑呢?女士說，校園另一邊有個自行車道，可以在那里玩。
23. 答案A
解析：選項是一些問題，根據前題，考生推斷可能是滑冰中出現的困難。聽力中間，男士說，上山沒有問題，很討厭下山，因為不擅長在滑冰中停下來。選項A用have trouble doing的結構表示“干某事有困難”。
24. 答案D
解析：選項使用了祈使句，前文講男士在滑冰中停下來有困難。女士說，我可以教你，如果真的不行，你還可以摔在草地上。從中判斷D為正確選項。
25. 答案C
解析：選項使用祈使句表示要做的事。聽力最后，男士說，可以帶一些喝的東西。女士附和，冰箱里有什么呢?所以接下來，他們最有可能做的事，是尋找飲料。
