2018年6月·第2套 英语六级听力真题原文与答案解析

What do we learn about the woman?

开场人物引入句。主持人 Tonight we have a special guest from a local establishment, the Parisian Cafe. 这句把嘉宾与“巴黎咖啡馆”绑定，是典型的开场身份介绍信号；再结合后文她一直用 we have rabbits wandering freely around the place. 的 we 自指这家店，可确认她就是店主。

• a special guest from a local establishment, the Parisian Cafe↔the owner of a special café“来自这家店的嘉宾+全程 we”=店主

• A)未提及她确实养动物、说顾客都是爱动物的人，但全程没说自己倡导 animal protection；She advocates animal protection. 是借“店里有动物”过度联想出来的身份，原文无据。
• B)原词陷阱原文有 offer something a little special 和咖啡馆场景，She sells a special kind of coffee. 就把 special 和 coffee 这两个真被念到的词拼起来，但她卖的特色是“店里有兔子”，不是“一种特别的咖啡”，答非所问。

  借用原文：offer something a little special and different from other establishments

• C)未提及原文只谈她现有这一家特色店，从未提扩张或连锁；She is going to start a café chain. 的 café chain 与将来计划都是无中生有。

What does the woman say about cafes in her city?

她对同行下的直接判断句。we felt they are all rather similar to each other 是受访者亲口给本市咖啡馆下的定性，用了 we felt 引出观点、they 指代这些店，正是被问者应答里承载答案的那句。

• they are all rather similar to each other↔They bear a lot of similarities.形容词 similar 名词化为 similarities

• B)原词陷阱原文确有 Cafes certainly are a very competitive market sector.，They are a profitable business sector. 就借 sector 一词制造熟悉感，但原文说的是 competitive（竞争激烈），不是 profitable（盈利），偷换了关键定性。

  借用原文：Cafes certainly are a very competitive market sector.

• C)与原文相反原文明说这些店 all rather similar to each other，They cater to different customers. 却说它们面向“不同”顾客，恰好与“相似”相反，是预读时就标出的相反陷阱。

  借用原文：they are all rather similar to each other

• D)未提及原文谈的是店里养兔子供顾客体验，从没说这些咖啡馆帮顾客照看宠物；They help take care of customers' pets. 是把“店里有动物”错接成“代管宠物”，无中生有。

How does the Parisian cafe guarantee that its rabbits pose no health threat?

Furthermore 引出的措施 + health risk 收束。Furthermore, our rabbits are regularly cleaned and have all received the required shots. 由 Furthermore 递进引出具体做法，紧接 So there is no health risk whatsoever. 用 health risk 点回题干的 health threat，一前一后正好框定这就是“保证健康无虞”的答案句。

• our rabbits are regularly cleaned↔regular cleaning被动句变名词短语
• have all received the required shots↔injectionsshots = injections 同义替换

• B)原词陷阱原文确说 Rabbits are very peaceful and certainly do not bite.，By selecting breeds that are tame and peaceful. 就借 peaceful 一词诱选，但那是在说兔子不咬人（安全），且并非“挑选温顺品种”这一办法，与题干问的“健康”更不对路。

  借用原文：Rabbits are very peaceful and certainly do not bite.

• C)与原文相反原文恰恰说兔子 play about and brush against their legs，是自由地蹭到顾客腿边、与人亲近；By placing them at a safe distance from customers. 说让兔子与顾客保持安全距离，与原文场景正好相反。

  借用原文：little rabbits play about and brush against their legs

• D)张冠李戴原文只说咖啡馆给孩子 a chance for them to learn about rabbits and how to take care of them，是面向孩子的体验，并非通过“告知顾客如何与兔子相处”来保证健康；By briefing customers on how to get along with them. 把对象与目的都接错了。

  借用原文：a chance for them to learn about rabbits and how to take care of them

What does the woman say about their customers?

As for our customers 引出的总评句。As for our customers, they are all animal lovers 用 As for 把话题切到“顾客”，紧跟的 they are all animal lovers 就是她对这群人下的整体定性，是承载本题答案的那句。

• they are all animal lovers↔They love the animals in her café.名词 animal lovers = 动词 love the animals

• A)张冠李戴原文 a chance for them to learn about rabbits 说的是“给孩子一个了解兔子的机会”，主体是 children；They want to learn about rabbits. 把这句安到 customers（顾客）头上，对象错位，且原文是“提供机会”而非顾客“想学”。

  借用原文：a chance for them to learn about rabbits and how to take care of them

• B)原词陷阱原文提到 Sometimes a young child may get over-excited，是举例说孩子有时太兴奋，并未说顾客“喜欢带孩子来”；They like to bring in their children. 是把 child 这个词重新包装成一条原文没有的顾客习惯。

  借用原文：Sometimes a young child may get over-excited

• D)未提及全文没有任何顾客评价/打分的内容；They give her café favorite reviews. 的 favorite reviews 是无中生有，靠“顾客满意”的氛围诱人脑补。

What do the speakers say about the food their children like?

贬义定性词 garbage。男士用 It's always some garbage 直接给孩子爱吃的食物下了"垃圾"这一定性。这种"对某物的直接定性词"就是细节评价题的答案信号，听到 garbage 这种带强烈贬义的概括词就锁定。

• It's always some garbage↔It is mostly garbage.always 与 mostly 同义弱化

• A)未提及录音通篇未提 additives（添加剂），只笼统说 garbage、unhealthy。这是凭"垃圾食品听起来就有添加剂"的常识脑补，原文并无依据。
• B)过度推断录音只说食物 unhealthy、是 garbage，从未说它 lacks the essential vitamins（缺乏必需维生素）。这是把"不健康"过度具体化成"缺维生素"。
• C)过度推断录音没有把孩子爱吃的食物与 obesity（肥胖）这一后果挂钩，全程只停在"unhealthy/garbage"层面。把"垃圾食品"自然联想到"导致肥胖"是常识，不是原文所说。

According to the speakers, what affects children's choice of food most?

强调结构 it's all that。女士用 I think it's all that advertising on TV 的强调句式把成因一口咬定在电视广告上，紧接 That's where they get it 再次确认。这种"it's all that…/That's where…"的归因强调就是"最主要原因"的答案信号。

• advertising on TV↔TV commercials.advertising=commercials 同义词

• A)未提及录音从未提到食物的 fancy design（精美设计/包装）影响孩子，归因只落在广告上。这是凭"包装好看吸引小孩"的常识脑补出来的因素。
• C)未提及录音没有把 taste and texture（口味与口感）列为影响选择的因素，更没说它"最"主要。这是把"小孩爱吃当然因为好吃"的常识当成了原文。
• D)未提及录音通篇没提 peer influence（同伴影响）。它利用了"小孩互相攀比"的生活经验设套，但原文归因始终是广告，不是同伴。

What do the speakers believe big food corporations are doing?

贬义定性 clever tactics。女士说商家把钱花在 clever tactics designed to make young children want to buy their products，再补 Children never stand a chance，强烈暗示这是"算计孩子"。这种"对行为的贬义定性 + 加重语气"就是态度类细节题的答案信号。

• clever tactics designed to make young children want to buy their products↔Trying to trick children into buying their products.tactics 概括为 trick
• Children never stand a chance↔trick children补刀句坐实欺骗

• A)原词陷阱录音确实说商家 have so much money to spend，但花在 tactics（手段）上，不是 Investing heavily in the production of sweet foods（重金投入甜食生产）。它盗用"很多钱"这个原词，却把去向偷换成"生产"。

  借用原文：have so much money to spend on clever tactics

• B)与原文相反Marketing their products with ordinary ingredients（用普通食材营销）与原文相反：上文 One never sees ordinary ingredients being advertised 明说普通食材根本不被广告，商家卖的恰是 garbage。它盗 ordinary ingredients 一词却把意思反了。

  借用原文：One never sees ordinary ingredients being advertised on TV

• D)与原文相反Offering children more varieties to choose from（给孩子更多选择）把商家说成在做好事，与录音"设套算计孩子"的负面定性完全相反，录音也根本没提"更多选择"。

  借用原文：clever tactics designed to make young children want to buy their products

What do we know about the speakers when they were children?

时间转换 When we were children。男士用 When we were children 把话题从"现在的孩子"切回"自己当年"，紧跟 we barely had any junk food available。这种"时间状语引出的对比句"就是过去情况题的答案信号。

• we barely had any junk food available↔They seldom had junk food.barely=seldom 否定频率词

• A)偷换概念They hardly ate vegetables（几乎不吃蔬菜）把原文"几乎没有垃圾食品"的否定对象偷换成了"蔬菜"。barely/hardly 这个"几乎不"的结构是对的，接的名词却被换掉了。

  借用原文：we barely had any junk food available

• C)张冠李戴favored chocolate-coated sweets（偏爱巧克力糖果）盗用了第7段 chocolate-covered sweets，但那是说"现在广告里的垃圾食品"，不是说话人小时候爱吃的；时间和主体都安错了。

  借用原文：chocolate-covered sweets

• D)张冠李戴liked the food advertised on TV 盗用了前文反复出现的 advertised on TV，但电视广告讲的是"现在的孩子"，说话人明说自己小时候 barely had any junk food，根本不在电视广告的语境里。

  借用原文：advertising on TV

What can be found in the Valley of the Kings?

关键词 Valley of the Kings 后紧跟 where 引出存在物。答案句由专有地名信号 the splendid Valley of the Kings 触发，其后 where the tombs of many of these ancient monarchs have stood for over 3,000 years 用 where 引导出该地存在的事物——陵墓，这就是题目问的有什么的落点。

• the tombs of many of these ancient monarchs↔Tombs of ancient rulers.monarchs=rulers 同义替换

• A)原词陷阱选项 Stretches of farmland. 盗用了原文 the nearby farmland on which ancient Egypt depended 里的 farmland，但那是讲尼罗河洪水滋养沿岸农田，并不在帝王谷里能找到，地点对错位了。

  借用原文：carrying new topsoil to the nearby farmland on which ancient Egypt depended

• B)未提及选项 Typical Egyptian animal farms. 借 Egyptian 与 farm 的关联诱选，原文只提埃及依赖农田耕作，从未说帝王谷里有典型的埃及动物农场，属凭埃及二字硬凑、原文无对应内容。
• D)原词陷阱选项 Ruins left by devastating floods. 盗用原文 the Nile used to flood annually 的 flood，但原文洪水是滋养农田的正面作用，根本不是 devastating（毁灭性）的废墟，且废墟也不在帝王谷，词对、语义与地点全错。

  借用原文：the Nile used to flood annually, thereby creating, irrigating and carrying new topsoil

In what way is the Amazon different from other big rivers?

段首否定 hardly 标出反常之处。答案句是第 3 段开门第一句，用否定词 Great civilizations and intensive settlement are hardly associated with the Amazon 直接点出亚马孙河的反常——别的大河多孕育文明，它却几乎没有，这种段首突出的否定式断言正是它与众不同的信号。

• Great civilizations and intensive settlement are hardly associated with the Amazon↔It is hardly associated with great civilizations.近乎原句保留，仅省去 settlement

• A)未提及选项 It provides habitats for more primitive tribes. 里 more primitive tribes（更原始的部落）原文从未提及，原文末句只说它 irrigates the largest tropical rain forest on earth，是灌溉雨林而非为原始部落提供栖息地，属凭雨林联想硬加。
• C)偷换概念选项 It has not yet been fully explored and exploited. 借开发/探索的话题诱选，但原文谈的是文明与定居稀少，从未说它尚未被充分开发利用，是把没文明偷换成没开发，原文无此层意思。
• D)与原文相反选项 It gathers water from many tropical rain forests. 盗用原文 irrigates the largest tropical rain forest on earth 的 tropical rain forest，但原文是亚马孙河灌溉雨林（河给雨林水），选项却说它从多片雨林汇水（雨林给河水），施受方向正好相反。

  借用原文：the Amazon irrigates the largest tropical rain forest on earth

What does the speaker say about the Amazon?

数据信号 about 20% 与 more than…combined。答案句以转折 Yet 引出关键数据 carries about 20% of the world's fresh water，并补一句 more than the Mississippi, Nile, and Yangtze combined，含百分比与多于…相加，正是数据题该锁定的统计落点。

• carries about 20% of the world's fresh water↔It carries about one fifth of the world's fresh water.20%=one fifth 数字换算等值

• B)与原文相反选项 It has numerous human settlements along its banks. 说沿岸有众多定居点，但原文 intensive settlement are hardly associated with the Amazon 恰恰说密集定居几乎与它无缘，选项与原文极性相反。

  借用原文：Great civilizations and intensive settlement are hardly associated with the Amazon

• C)原词陷阱选项 It is second only to the Mississippi River in width. 盗用原文真念过的 Mississippi 和 wide，但原文 more than the Mississippi, Nile, and Yangtze combined 是说水量多于它们，so wide at some points that…neither shore can be seen 是说它极宽、从未说宽度仅次于密西西比河，把不同的量与排名硬凑在一起。

  借用原文：The Amazon is so wide at some points that from its center neither shore can be seen.

• D)原词陷阱选项 It is as long as the Nile and the Yangtze combined. 盗用原文 more than the Mississippi, Nile, and Yangtze combined 里的 Nile、Yangtze、combined，但原文这串河名比的是淡水量（carries…more than），不是长度，选项把比较的对象量从水量偷换成 long（长度）。

  借用原文：carries about 20% of the world's fresh water—more than the Mississippi, Nile, and Yangtze combined

What does the speaker think is an inevitable truth?

题干词原文复现。信号是题干里的 inevitable truth 在 It's an inevitable truth that all of us live a life in the fast lane 中原话出现，that 引导的从句就是这个"事实"的具体内容，即答案所在。

• all of us live a life in the fast lane↔We are always in a rush to do various things.比喻短语转直白同义

• A)原词陷阱A 借用了原文里的 fast lane 让人耳熟，但原文只说大家都过快节奏生活，从没说"快节奏 leads to success（带来成功）"，这个因果是选项凭空加上的。

  借用原文：all of us live a life in the fast lane

• C)答非所问"对平静的追求成了一种潮流"在原文里并没有作为"inevitable truth"被说出；原文提到平静（tranquility）是讲她个人的转变和结尾的建议，不是说它已成趋势，本题问的是那个"事实"，对不上。
• D)过度推断原文说大家"过着快节奏生活，尽管知道忙不健康"，并没说"所有人其实都向往慢而平静的生活"；D 是把说话人结尾的个人主张夸大成"全体的内心渴望"，与那句"事实"的本意相反。

  借用原文：being busy is not always particularly healthy

What does the speaker say about her life in Tokyo?

转折 But 后引出东京生活。信号是段首的转折词 But after I moved to Tokyo——前面讲新西兰的慢生活，But 之后才转到东京，这正是本题问的"东京生活"落点，紧跟的描述就是答案句。

• I got used to having a pile of to-do lists↔She was accustomed to tight schedules.短语换近义词 + 具象换概括

• A)未提及原文讲东京生活只说待办多、日程乱、忙得像蜜蜂，从没提"难以平衡家庭与工作"；balancing family and work 是文中根本没出现的内容。
• B)原词陷阱B 借了原文里的 social events 让人耳熟，但原文是说她被无尽的会议和社交活动"填满时间、忙得团团转"，是负担，不是"enjoyed（享受）"；选项把忙碌偷换成了享受。

  借用原文：filling my time up with endless work meetings and social events, rushing along as busy as a bee

• D)张冠李戴原文东京段只讲忙，没说"闲暇全用来写书"；book 一词虽在第三段出现，但那是她"读到"一本书 I came across a book，不是她写书，更不在东京段，D 把无关且改写错的细节塞了进来。

  借用原文：I came across a book called In Praise of Slowness

What made the speaker change her lifestyle?

时间转折 Then, one day 引出起因。信号是 Then, one day 这个时间转折——它标志故事从"一直很忙"拐向"开始改变"，紧跟的"读到一本书并意识到……"就是促成改变的那件事，即答案。

• I came across a book called In Praise of Slowness↔Reading a book about slowing down.动词与书名的同义改写

• A)未提及原文从没说她担心"忙碌会毁掉家庭"；ruining her family 是文中完全没有的原因，属凭日常想象添加的选项。
• B)偷换概念原文说她意识到忙"detrimental（有害）"、可能让生活变成 endless race，但这是读书后的领悟，并非"察觉自己健康在下滑"这一亲身体验；B 把抽象的"有害"偷换成具体的"健康下滑"，且颠倒了"先读书才醒悟"的顺序。

  借用原文：being busy is not only detrimental

• C)原词陷阱C 里的快节奏生活确是全篇背景，但原文促成改变的直接起因是"读到那本书"，而非"被快节奏累垮"；选项盗用主题词 fast-paced life 制造耳熟，却把背景错当成了导火索。

  借用原文：rushing along as busy as a bee

What happened after the speaker changed her lifestyle?

but 后的 I've become 落出真意。信号有两处：前半 It doesn't mean that my to-do lists no longer exist 先排除"完全弃用清单"这一误解，转折词 but 之后的 I enjoy the daily activities 才是改变后的真实结果，转折后才是落点。

• I enjoy the daily activities as I carry them out↔She came to enjoy doing everyday tasks.近义词逐一对应

• A)与原文相反原文结尾建议大家别用 the cultural norm that says "busy"，主张反其道而行，而不是"开始顺从文化习惯"；A 与原文的主张正好相反。

  借用原文：instead of the cultural norm that says "busy"

• C)未提及原文结尾让人改用 exciting and fun 来回答，那是为了体现"不再以忙为常态"，不是为了"更礼貌"；用语更礼貌 polite expressions 是文中没有的说法。
• D)原词陷阱D 借了原文真出现的 to-do lists，但原文明确说 It doesn't mean that my to-do lists no longer exist——清单并没有不存在；D 把"没那么依赖"夸大成"彻底停用"，被前半句直接否掉。

  借用原文：It doesn't mean that my to-do lists no longer exist

What assumption about introduced species is challenged by a number of scientists?

转折 But + 题干同词 question the assumption。答案句由转折词 But 领起，且与题干 assumption 用同一个词 question the assumption，转折后正是被质疑的那条假设；听力里 But 之后才是真意，加上题干原词复现，这句必是答案句。

• the presence of alien species can never be acceptable in a natural ecosystem↔They pose a threat to the local ecosystem永不可接受=被视为对生态的威胁

• A)原词陷阱录音第一段确有 root out non-native organisms（铲除外来生物），选项把 root out 搬来却改成 root out native species altogether（彻底铲除本地物种）——铲除的对象是外来物种、不是本地物种，且 altogether 这种绝对化也无据，是典型听到原词就想选的陷阱。

  借用原文：root out non-native organisms

• B)张冠李戴外来物种有益、有助生物多样性是后面科学家反驳时的立场，而非题干要的被质疑的假设；选项 contribute to a region's biodiversity 方向正相反，且 biodiversity 一词出现在第五段讲威胁时 the greatest threat to biodiversity，借这个词制造熟悉感，实为张冠李戴。

  借用原文：the greatest threat to biodiversity

• D)未提及选项说外来物种会与本地物种 crossbreed with native species（杂交），录音通篇讨论的是威胁、控制、归化，从未提到杂交这一点，属凭常识臆造、原文无对应的未提及项。

What does Dr. Michael Rosenzweig think of exotic and native species?

人名 said Dr. Rosenzweig 直接领出本人观点。答案句中 said Dr. Michael Rosenzweig 把发言人锁定为题干问的那个人，他亲口给出的判断 Distinctions between exotic and native species are artificial 就是观点句；态度题紧跟人名找他说的评价句即可定位。

• Distinctions between exotic and native species are artificial↔Their distinctions are artificial几乎原句压缩，artificial 评价一致

• A)与原文相反Rosenzweig 明说区分是 artificial（人为、不真实），选项却说分类 Their classifications are meaningful（有意义、站得住），与他的立场完全相反，是把观点极性反转的陷阱。

  借用原文：Distinctions between exotic and native species are artificial

• B)偷换概念选项说它们的 interactions are hard to define（相互作用难界定），但原文谈的是 distinctions（区分）人为，且说难以界定的不是 interactions；选项借 species 的话题感把 distinction 偷换成 interaction，答非所问。

  借用原文：Distinctions between exotic and native species are artificial

• C)过度推断选项说 Their definitions are changeable（定义可变），原文虽提到区分取决于 picking a date（挑个日期），但 Rosenzweig 的核心判断是这条区分本身人为，而非强调定义会变；changeable 看似沾边，却不是他给出的定性，属偏离重心。

  借用原文：picking a date and calling the plants and animals that show up after that date exotic

What does Professor Don Smith say about alien species?

人名 said Don Smith + 数量限定 Only a small percentage。答案句由 said Don Smith 锁定发言人，开头的数量限定 Only a small percentage 正是他给出的核心事实；题干问某人 say about，紧跟人名的这句限定数量的陈述就是答案句。

• Only a small percentage of alien species cause problems in their new habitats↔Only a few of them cause problems to native speciesa small percentage = a few，同义换说

• B)与原文相反选项说外来物种 may turn out to benefit the local environment（可能有益于本地环境），但原文末尾 Smith 的真意恰相反——他提醒 non-native species can appear harmless for decades, then turn invasive（看似无害多年后会转为入侵），强调的是别被表象骗，而非可能有益；选项把警示反向曲解。

  借用原文：non-native species can appear harmless for decades, then turn invasive

• C)原词陷阱选项 Few of them can survive in their new habitats（少有能存活）借用了原文 in their new habitats 这一原词，但 Smith 说的是少数会惹问题、九成已 fit into their environments 适应良好，恰恰是大多数能存活；选项把适应说成不能存活，与原文相反。

  借用原文：fit into their environments and are considered naturalized

• D)原词陷阱原文确有 only about 10 percent are invasive——10% 是入侵的比例；选项 Only 10 percent of them can be naturalized 把数字搬对，却说成只有 10% 能归化，与原文 The other 90 percent…are considered naturalized（九成才是归化）正好颠倒，是典型听到数字就想选的陷阱。

  借用原文：only about 10 percent are invasive

What should you do when doing business with foreigners?

强调句 It is essential 标出讲者的核心建议。讲者先说对方卖给我们时会努力说英语、尊重我们的传统方法，紧接着用 It is only polite for us to do the same 要求我们反过来也这样，并用 It is essential if we want to sell British products overseas 加重语气——“essential（必不可少）”这种强调用词，就是答案句的信号。

• respect our traditions and methods↔Respect their traditional culturetraditions and methods 概括成 traditional culture
• do the same when we visit them↔Respect their traditional culture.do the same 指代前句的“尊重对方传统”

• B)原词陷阱录音开头有 our series of business seminars，选项 Attend their business seminars. 正是盗用了 seminars 这个原词。但“seminars”指的是讲者自己办的这场系列讲座，根本不是“和外国人做生意该做什么”的答案，纯靠耳熟骗选。

  借用原文：our series of business seminars

• C)未提及Research their specific demands.（研究他们的具体需求）听起来像很专业的商务建议，但录音里讲者给的总纲是“尊重对方传统”，全程没有讲“研究具体需求”。这是把一个看似合理的商务套话强加进来，原文未提及。
• D)偷换概念Adopt the right business strategies.（采取正确的商业策略）是个很笼统的大词，看似稳妥。但讲者明确给的建议是“尊重对方传统方法”这一具体点，而非泛泛的“正确策略”；用一个更大更空的概念把原文的具体主张换掉了。

What must you avoid doing with your Indian colleague?

禁止语气 must not + 国家名 India 双重信号。这句同时出现 you must not drink alcohol 的强禁止语气和定位锚 in India，问“必须避免做什么 + 印度同事”，正好对上 must not 和 India 两个信号，定位非常稳。

• drink alcohol on the first and seventh of the month↔Drinking alcohol on certain days of a monththe first and seventh 概括成 certain days

• A)张冠李戴Showing them your palm. 里的“手掌 palm”来自录音讲泰国如何叫服务员那段：Place your palm downward and make an inconspicuous waving gesture。那是泰国的“正确做法”，不是印度的禁忌，被搬到印度题里张冠李戴。

  借用原文：Place your palm downward and make an inconspicuous waving gesture

• B)张冠李戴Giving them gifts of great value. 里的“贵重礼物”取自讲阿拉伯国家那段 presenting him with a gift of equal worth and beauty。那是阿拉伯礼俗，且并非“必须避免”，被错挂到印度同事头上。

  借用原文：presenting him with a gift of equal worth and beauty

• D)张冠李戴Clicking your fingers loudly in their presence. 来自泰国段 In Thailand, clicking the fingers, clapping your hands, or just shouting "Waiter!", will embarrass your hosts。这是泰国叫服务员的禁忌，不是印度同事的禁忌，国家对错了。

  借用原文：In Thailand, clicking the fingers, clapping your hands, or just shouting "Waiter!", will embarrass your hosts

What do we learn about some Spanish business people?

国家名 Spain + 数字时间是定位与答案信号。in Spain 是定位锚，紧跟的数字 working until about 2 o'clock and then returning to the office from 5:30 是答案承载点——听到国家名加一串时间数字，就是本题的落点。

• working until about 2 o'clock and then returning to the office from 5:30↔They have a break from 2:00 to 5:30 p.m.“干到2点、5点半再回”推出“2点到5点半休息”

• A)未提及They are very easy to satisfy.（很容易满足）录音里关于西班牙人压根没说过，属于自己脑补的性格评价，原文只讲了作息时间，没有任何关于“是否容易满足”的内容。
• B)原词陷阱They have a strong sense of worth. 里的“worth（价值）”呼应的是阿拉伯段 a gift of equal worth and beauty 中的 worth，被移植成对西班牙人的性格判断。原文讲西班牙只说了作息，没有这种评价。

  借用原文：a gift of equal worth and beauty

• C)张冠李戴They tend to be friendly and enthusiastic.（友好热情）对应的是录音讲阿拉伯人那段 the politeness and generosity of the people are without parallel。这是阿拉伯人的特点，被张冠李戴给了西班牙人。

  借用原文：the politeness and generosity of the people are without parallel

What did George Grune do in 1984?

时间锚点 1984 加结论句。录音里 Shortly after he took over the Reader's Digest Association in 1984 出现题干同款时间 1984,顺着往下,真正的结论是 Grune has shaken up the culture here——开锁只是象征性动作,搅动文化才是这件事的实质。

• Grune has shaken up the culture here↔completely changed the company's cultureshaken up=completely changed

• B)原词陷阱录音确实念到董事会议室里有 paintings by many world-famous artists like Monet and Picasso,但那是介绍公司文化时举的例子,说的是公司收藏,并非 Grune 在 1984 做的事;选项 collected paintings by world-famous artists 把听到的名画原词搬来安到 Grune 头上。

  借用原文：paintings by many world-famous artists like Monet and Picasso

• C)原词陷阱录音说他 took over the Reader's Digest Association in 1984,是接掌整个协会;选项 took over the sales department of Reader's Digest 盗用 took over 这个原词,却把接掌对象偷偷缩小成销售部门,与原文不符。

  借用原文：took over the Reader's Digest Association in 1984

• D)原词陷阱录音里他对董事会议室做的是 unlocked the company's boardroom 并对员工开放,这是个象征性举动;选项 had the company's boardroom extensively renovated 盗用 boardroom 原词,却把开锁开放篡改成大修翻新,动作完全两样。

  借用原文：unlocked the company's boardroom

How did the Wallaces define the formula for Reader's Digest?

formula 后的列举即定义。录音先说 had a clearly defined formula,紧接着用 Articles were to be short, readable and uplifting 把公式逐条列出,were to be 这种规定式语气标志着这就是他们定下的办刊要点,是答案句。

• Articles were to be short, readable and uplifting↔Its articles should be short and inspiringwere to be=should;uplifting=inspiring

• A)未提及录音从未说华莱士给杂志定价合理;选项 It should be sold at a reasonable price. 是无中生有,录音讲公式时只谈文章与选题,未涉定价。
• C)原词陷阱录音 selling 28 million copies each month in 17 languages 提到 languages,但那是讲杂志后来的发行规模,不是华莱士定的公式;选项 It should be published in the world's leading languages. 把 languages 原词搬到办刊主张上,张冠李戴。

  借用原文：selling 28 million copies each month in 17 languages

• D)偷换概念录音说选题 Subjects were picked to inspire or entertain,entertain 是面向读者的;blue- and pink-collar 则出现在讲后来裁员的第三段;选项 Its articles should entertain blue- and pink-collar workers. 把两处不相干的原词 entertain 和 blue- and pink-collar 拼在一起,制造像对的假象。

  借用原文：Subjects were picked to inspire or entertain

What do we learn about the founder of Reader's Digest, DeWitt Wallace?

明确陈述待员工如家人。录音直接陈述 the childless Wallaces always considered employees to be part of their family,这是对创始人待人风格的正面定性句,always 加重了语气,正是答案句。

• considered employees to be part of their family↔treated the employees like members of his familyconsider as part of=treat like member

• A)张冠李戴懂得让杂志盈利、盯利润的是后来的 Grune(has his eye focused on the bottom line),不是创始人 Wallace;选项 He knew how to make the magazine profitable. 把 Grune 的特征安到创始人头上,张冠李戴。

  借用原文：has his eye focused on the bottom line
