　　录音原文：

　　13.

　　W: I think we've covered everything. What about a cup of coffee before we move on to the next item?

　　M: Good idea. I really can't wait another minute.

　　解析：

　　A 关键是要听懂表示建议的巨星What about a cup of coffee before we move on to the next item(进行下一项之前，来杯咖啡怎么样?)也就是说，先稍作休息，故A正确，而B，C均不正确。D与对话内容无关，只是利用个别原词制造的干扰项。

　　14.

　　W: But what happens if it rains? What are we going to do then?

　　M: We'll have to count on good weather, but if it does rain, the whole thing will have to be canceled?

　　C 关键要抓听but后面的重要信息“如果真的下雨，整个事情就得取消”，关键词是rain和cancel，含有对应的信息的是C“万一小雨，他们将无法按原计划行事”。本体属于第二个人的话语中间带but的转折题，but后面是答案。对话中没有提到天气预报(weather forcast),故A不正确;count on意思是“指望，依靠”，count in意思是“把......计算在内”，男士说我们得观望天气，而B“他们没把天气计算在内”与男士的话恰恰相反。D错在postpone“推迟”。
