原文
M：The biological project is now in trouble. You know my colleague and I have completely different ideas about how to proceed.
W：Why don’t you compromise? Try to make it a win-win situation for you both.
Q：What does the woman suggest the man do?
［答案］C)。[听前猜测]四个选项都是动词短语，故推测本题考查说话人要做什么。[精解]对话中男士埋怨生物学项目出麻烦了，同事和他的观点截然不同，女士用why don’t you引导的句式进行劝说，建议他compromise(让步)，实现win-win situation(双方共赢的局面)。由此可见，女士建议男士作出让步，以和为贵。故本题答案是C)。
12.A) Mary has a keen eye for style.
B) Nancy regrets buying the dress.
C) Nancy and Mary went shopping together in Rome.
D) Nancy and Mary like to follow the fashion.
M：How does Nancy like the new dress she bought in Rome?
W：She said she would never have bought an Italian style dress if she had known Mary had already got such a dress.
Q：What do we learn from the conversation?
［答案］B)。[听前猜测]四个选项中多次提到Nancy和Mary，还出现了style, dress, fashion等词，所以推测本题可能涉及两人的某件服装款式。[精解]对话中男士打听Nancy是否喜欢新买的衣服，女士回答到，Nancy说如果她知道Mary已经有一件这样款式的衣服，她绝对不会买的。结合生活实际，任何人都想买一件与众不同的衣服，可见Nancy后悔自己买了一件与别人同样款式的衣服。故答案为B)。
13. A) Wash the dishes.
B) Go to the theatre.
C) Pick up George and Martha.
D) Take her daughter to hospital.
M：You are not going to do all those dishes before, we leave, are you? If we don’t pick up George and Martha in 25 minutes, we will never get to the theater on time.
W：Oh, didn’t I tell you Martha called to say her daughter was ill and they could not go tonight?
Q：What is the woman probably going to do first?
［答案］A)。[听前猜测]四个选项都是动词短语，内容涉及到洗碗、看电影、接人等，故推测本题考查说话人的动作。[精解]对话中男士反问女士不会等洗完了碗再走吧，接着说如果不在25分钟内接上George 和Martha，可能无法按时到达剧院；女士回答说Martha来电话说女儿病了，今晚去不了了，可见他们不用去接人了，时间也就不紧张了。因此，女士首先可能做的事情是洗碗。故答案为A)。
14. A) She enjoys making up stories about other people.
B) She can never keep anything to herself for long.
C) She is eager to share news with the woman.
D) She is the best informed woman in town.
M：You’ve been hanging on to the phone for quite a while. Who were you talking with?
W：Oh, it was Sally. You know, she always has the latest news in town and can’t wait to talk it over with me.
Q：What do we learn about Sally from the conversation?
［答案］C)。[听前猜测]四个选项都是以she作主语，听音时侧重女士的话语。[精解]男士询问女士和谁通电话，女士回答说是和Sally，接着说Sally总是有最新消息，并且迫不及待地要和她讨论。故答案为C)。
B) A mechanic.
C) A driving examiner.
D) A technical consultant 2.
W：It’s always been hard to get this car into first gear. And now the clutch seems to be slipping.
M：If you leave the car with me, I will fix it for you this afternoon.
Q：Who is the woman probably speaking to?
［答案］B)。[听前猜测] 四个选项都是职业名称，因此推测本题考查说话人的身份。[精解]两人的对话中提到了this car，first gear，clutch，fix it for you等关键词，而且男士说要为女士修车，可见女士的说话对象应该是机修工。故正确答案为B)。
16.A) The shopping mall has been deserted 3 recently.

W：Well, there used to be some really good stores, but lots of them moved out to the mall.
Q：What do we learn from the conversation?
［答案］D)。[听前猜测]选项中出现了shopping mall，shoppers，downtown，business等词语，因此推测本题与购物相关。[精解]对话中男士问为什么市区看上去十分萧条，女士解释说以前的确有一些不错的店铺，但是很多都搬到商业街去了。可见，四个选项中仅有D)的表述正确，故答案是D)。
17.A) He will help the woman with her reading.

C) He feels sleepy whenever he tries to study.

M：Well, for me the hardest part about studying here is staying awake.
Q：What does the man mean?
［答案］B)。[听前猜测]有两个选项以he作主语，还出现了reading，study，campus等，可以推测对话内容与校园中的学习生活相关。[精解]对话中女士认为在休息室学习很舒服，男士说对他而言，在那里学习最难做到的是不打瞌睡，可见男士不适合在休息室里学习。故本题答案为B)。

W: These mosquito bites are killing 5 me. I can’t help scratching.

Q: Why does the man suggest the woman wear long sleeves?
［答案］C)。[听前猜测]四个选项都是不定式作目的状语，听音时要注意说话人做事的目的。[精解]对话中女士埋怨蚊子咬得她忍不住直挠，男士建议她下次野营时要采取防护措施——穿长袖衣服。可见男士建议女士穿长袖衣服是为了预防蚊子叮咬。故本题答案为C)。
