2009年12月英语四级听力考试全真模拟题(4)

　　14. W: You see, there are too many people here. Let’s go to some other places.

　　M: All right. But cold weather in December cannot keep people away from the busy shops.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　【解析】选[B]。女士说这里人太多了，到其他地方去看看吧。男士说，没问题，但是12月的冷天也不能阻挡人们来这些热闹的商店，言下之意是尽管12月的天气很冷，逛商店的人仍然会多，故选项[B]符合题意。

　　15. W: Your exam is over, isn’t it? Why aren’t you cheerful?

　　M: Oh, I don’t know. It isn’t that the questions were too hard, but I always feel uneasy when the exam doesn’t seem to have much to do with the book.

　　Q: What was the man’s opinion of the exam?

　　【解析】选[B]。在but后男士提到试卷与书的联系不大时，他就总觉得不安。选项[B] 是对此的同义转述。对话提到...it isn’t that the questions were too hard, 意思是这些问题其实并不难。由此可以排除选项[A]、[D]。[C]项中time(考试时间)在对话中没有提及。

　　16. W: What do you think of the movie?

　　M: It was worth neither the time nor the money.

　　Q: What does the man mean?

　　【解析】选[B]。“neither...nor...”结构是对两个内容的否定，也就是说时间和钱花得都不值，言外之意就是这部电影根本不值得一看。

　　17. M: Good afternoon. I’m Mr. Jackson. I answered your ad for an experienced advertising executive.

　　W: Oh, yes, Mr. Jackson. Won’t you have a seat? The manager will see you shortly.

　　Q: What do we learn about Mr. Jackson?

　　【解析】选[D]。男士来应聘广告上说的有经验的广告主管职位。女士说经理马上就会见他。关键词是experienced(有经验的)、see you(会见)，另外前面的ad指报纸上的招聘广告，后面的advertising executive指的是广告主管职位，选项[D] 符合题意。

　　18. M: Excuse me, would you please tell me when the next flight to Los Angeles is?

　　W: Sure. The next direct flight to Los Angeles is two hours from now, but if you do not mind transferring at San Francisco you can board now.

　　Q: What can we learn from the conversation?

　　【解析】选[D]。the next flight、direct flight(直达航班)、transferring(转机，换乘)构成了“在机场咨询航班情况”的特定场景。由女士所说的if you do not mind transferring at san Francisco you can board now可知答案为[D]。
