1 六级 2012年12月卷（二）听力原文及答案 Listening Comprehension Section A

11. W: It’s a miracle that Robert came out of the air crash

alive.

M: That’s indeed a miracle. All the other passengers

were killed.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

【听前预测】根据意思相反的两个选项中有一个可能是答案的命题规律，将答案锁定在[A]和[C]之间。

【解 析】选[A]。对话中女士提到Robert…alive（罗伯特…活着），[A]中的survived对应alive，故答案为[A]。

12. M: Isn’t it rather cold outside, Sally?

W: It is a bit, but I can’t stand the terrible smoke inside.

I’d rather stay here if you don’t mind.

Q: Why does the woman want to stay outside?

【听前预测】选项中的smoke a cigarette， the smell of

smoke inside等表明，对话与吸烟有关。

【解 析】选[D]。对话中女士提到but I can’t stand the

terrible smoke inside（但我受不了里面的烟味）。[D]中的doesn’t like the smell of smoke inside是对此的同义转述，故答案为[D]。but后的内容常为考点。

13. W: I’m going over to see a car someone has for sale.

With all your experience as a mechanic, I’d

appreciate your opinion.

M: That was twenty years ago. Cars have changed so

much. I’m not sure how much help I might be, but

sure I’ll come along for the ride.

Q: What does the man imply?

【听前预测】由选项中的The woman shouldn’t，He doesn’t

know可知，男士的话为听音重点。

【解 析】选[C]。男士的话Cars have changed so much.

I’m not sure…（汽车变化太大了，我不确定…）为听音重点。由男士的话可知，男士对新车把握不大，故答案为[C]。come along意为“来，出现”。appreciate one’s opinion表示要征求某人的意见。

14. W: You’ll have to apologize a bit more sincerely if you

expect your friend to actually trust you again.

M: I don’t know what else I could say. Besides, I don’t

think it’s an apology he wants.

Q: What does the man imply?

【听前预测】由选项中重复出现的apology以及He

will/couldn’t find可知，对话与道歉有关，男士的话为听音重点。

【解 析】选[D]。男士的话I don’t think it’s an apology

he wants（我认为他要的不仅是个道歉）为听音重点。[D]的内容是对此的同义转述，故为答案。由男士提到的I

don’t know可排除强干扰项[B]。

15. M: I’ve been running a mile every afternoon for the past month. But I still haven’t been able to lose more

than a pound or two. I wonder if it is worth it.

W: It always seems hard when you are just starting out.

Q: What does the woman mean?

【听前预测】由选项中的running daily， exercise， warm

up可知，对话很可能与锻炼身体有关。The man should表明，女士的话为听音重点。

【解 析】选[D]。女士的话It always seems hard

when…just starting out.（刚开始时…总是很难）为听音重点。[D]的内容是对此的同义转述，故为答案。It always

seems hard when you are just starting out常用于鼓励别人坚持做某事，别因为开始的困难而放弃。

geology class. But I’m not certain if I have the

mountain, especially when it’s full of tools.

M: They are taking two donkeys to carry the tools. We

just have to carry our personal items, like clothing

and sleeping bags.

Q: What does the man mean?

【听前预测】由He doesn’t know/mind可知，男士的话为听音重点。

【解 析】选[C]。男士的话two donkeys to carry the tools（两头驴驮工具）为听音重点。驴驮工具，说明女士不用背工具，故答案为[C]。personal items意为“私人物品”。

17. W: Do you ever get tired of the same topics always

being discussed at council meetings?

M: Do I? You know sometimes I think some members

have nothing better to talk about.

Q: What does the man mean about the council

members?

【听前预测】由选项中重复出现的They，topics，discuss可知，对话与某些人讨论的话题有关。

【解 析】选[A]。对话中女士提到the same topics

always…，男士提到have nothing better to talk about（没有什么更好的话题可谈论），[A]中的have a narrow range

of topics to discuss是对此的同义转述，故为答案。get tired

of…意为“对……厌烦”。bring up意为“提出”。

Do you think I should apologize again?

W: If I were you, I’d let her cool off a few days before I

approach her.

【听前预测】由选项中重复出现的Daisy以及Apologize,

apology可知，对话可能与向Daisy道歉有关。

【解 析】选[C]。对话中女士提到let her cool off（让她消消气），[C]中的when Daisy is less angry是对此的同义转述，故为答案。cool off意为“冷静下来”。

What surprises many people about this book is that it

suggests that the best thing to do is to change yourself

because you are not going to change the other person.

M: Really? It’s “me” that has to change as opposed to the

other person?

W: Well, have you ever changed anybody?

M: I’ve tried many times. It’s not really possible though.

W: That’s right.

M: But how can I do that?

W: The book is here. Bring it back home and read it and

you can find the answer.

M: Before I pay my money I should be clear that this book

is useful for me. I don’t want to pay for it and then find I

have paid for nothing.

W: This book is definitely worth the money. The book even
