15. W: How did your interview go?
M: I couldn’t feel worse about it. The questions were very fair but I seemed to find no answers for all of them.
Q: How does the man feel about the interview?
【解析】選[B]。I couldn’t feel worse about it指I feel the worst，這說明男士的面視并不理想，[B]是對他心情的正確描述。比較級用于否定結構可表示“最…不過”。如Nothing better(那最好不過了)。
16. M: I can’t find my lunch box anywhere.
W: Never mind. I’ll treat you today.
Q: What do we learn from this conversation?
【解析】選[C]。對話中的關鍵詞是treat“款待；做東；請客”，男士說找不到自己的飯盒了，女士說沒關系，我請你吃飯，選項[C]是女士回話的同義轉述。[A]、[B]與對話無關。[D]是借treat一詞設置的干擾項。
17. M: Wasn’t it terrific?
W: Well, the music was enjoyable, but the story didn’t make much sense to me. I still prefer traditional drama with strong characters and an exciting plot.
Q: What does the woman think of the play?
【解析】選[C]。對話中男士問女士對戲劇的看法，女士說戲劇的音樂不錯，但故事情節沒意思，并補充說她喜歡人物塑造力強、情節生動的傳統戲劇。由此推知她認為這部戲劇太現代派了，故[C]為答案。
18. W: Where have you been all this time? The train is about to leave!
M: Sorry I’m late, but I was waiting for you at the information desk upstairs. It’s lucky I thought to look for you here on the platform.
Q: Where did the man think they were supposed to meet?
【解析】選[D]。根據男士的回答，我一直在樓上信息臺那里等你，可知男士認為他們應在信息臺見面。所以答案為[D]。
Conversation One
W: Excuse me, are you going to buy that book?
M: Well, I need it for a class but it’s awfully expensive.
W: Oh, we must be in the same class. Introduction to British Literature?
M: Yes, that’s the one. Were you there yesterday for the first class?
W: I sure was. Professor Robert really seems to know his subject.
M: Yes, I took his Shakespeare course last semester and it was very good. He likes listening to his students.
W: That’s a relief. I’m a biology major and I was a little uncertain about taking an English course.
M: I’m an English major and this is a required course. But now I’m in trouble because I’m not sure I can afford this book.
W: Hey, I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we split the cost and share the book?
M: Sounds great. Do you live on campus?
W: Yeah, I live on the 10th floor of Butler Hall.
M: Perfect. I live on the 3rd floor of Butler. We should have no trouble sharing the book. I can bring it up to your room right after I wrap up the assignment.
W: It’s a deal.
Questions 19 to 21 are based on the passage you have just heard.
19. Where is the conversation most probably taking place?
【解析】選[A]。分析選項發現四個選項均是由表示方位的介賓短語“in+名詞”構成，表明本題考查的是對地點的判斷，我們可以根據行為活動和代表性的詞語來判斷地點。對話一開始女士的buy that book即表明對話發生在書店內。而圖書館一般與借書、還書有關。
20. Which class are the man and the woman taking together?
【解析】選[C]。四個選項的內容在錄音中都有提及，關鍵是聽清題目問的是男士和女士一起討論的是什么課。回憶女士所說的in the same class和Introduction to English Literature以及男士的肯定回答Yes可以得出答案。
21. What does the man think about Professor Robert?
【解析】選[D]。根據[B]、[C]、[D]可以推斷He指的是一個老師或者教授。錄音中提到了Professor Robert，女士說Professor Robert really seems to know his subject，男士肯定了女士的說法，說Professor Robert的課very good并且喜歡listening to his students，由此可以判斷Professor Robert是一個優秀的教授。
Conversation Two
M: You should have seen the line at the housing office. It took me an hour to make my dormitory deposit for next year. Have you made yours yet?
W: No, I’m not sure I’m going to.
M: There’s not much time left. The deadline’s May 1. That is just two weeks from now. Are you short of cash?
W: No, I’m Okay.
M: You’d better hurry up if you want a dorm room next September. There aren’t enough rooms for every one, and first year students have priority.
W: Well, I’ve been thinking about living off campus.
M: Have you any idea of how much that would cost? There is the rent, utilities, and you’d probably need a car.
W: I know it would be more expensive. I think I can handle it though. The dorm is just so noisy that I can’t get anything done. Maybe my grades would be better if I had some peace and quiet in a place of my own.
M: You should study in the library the way I do. Think of the money you’d save.
W: I’ve got to think it over some more. There’s still two weeks left in April.
Questions 22 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
22. What are the speakers discussing?
【解析】選[B]。對話圍繞著交下一年的宿舍押金展開，接著女士說她在考慮搬出校園，由此引發了兩人的討論，因此整個對話主要是對話雙方討論下一年在哪居住的問題，因此答案選[B]。
23. What must a person do in order to live in a university house?
【解析】選[A]。對話中男士說You’d better hurry up if you want a room next September，而從前面的對話內容(make my dormitory deposit for next year)可知男士說的hurry up指的是趕緊去交dormitory deposit，由此可知如果要住學校的房子，就要付一些錢給housing office，故選[A]。
24. Where do the two speakers live now?
【解析】選[A]。從對話最后兩人談到在宿舍學習時的情況和住宿舍可以省錢可以判斷兩人現在都住宿舍，只是女士想搬出宿舍住。
25. What does the man seem to be concerned about?
【解析】選[D]。從男士的話Think of the money you’d save可以判斷他關心的是money，因此答案選[D]。[A] Grades是女士關心的問題。[B]和[C]兩項對話中未談及。
