W: I am going to Martha's house. I have a paper to complete. And I need to use her computer.
M: Why don't you buy one yourself? Think how much time you could save.
Q: What does the man suggest the woman do?
正確答案:B
解析:關鍵是要聽到男士所用的表示建議的句型:“為什么不自己買一臺電腦呢?”故選B。A是對男士后一句話(想想看你能節省多少時間啊)的曲解;C是女士的本意;D為原文只言片語的胡亂拼湊。注意Why don't you...或Why not...是典型的提出建議的句型。

W: Daddy, I have decided to give up science and go to business school.
M: Well, it is your choice as long as pay your own way, but I should warn you that not everyone with a business degree will make a successful manager.
Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
正確答案:D
解析:女兒對老爸說,她要放棄science而去讀business school,老爸于是提了一點建議。關鍵是要聽到男士but后面的話:“我得提醒你,并不是每一個擁有商業學位的人都能成為一名成功的經理。”顯然,他是讓女兒三思而后行,所以答案為D。A是無關信息;B是對男士的話的曲解;C過于絕對,與男士的態度不符。注意對話中出現了一個重要聽力(口語)詞組pay one's way“負擔有關費用”。
