Part IIListening Comprehension(30 minutes)
Section A
Directions: In this section, you will hear two long conversations. At the end of each conversation, you will hear four questions. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.
Questions 1 to 4 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

M: I've just bought a new blender.

M: 我刚买了一台新搅拌机。

W: What's that?

W: 那是什么?

M: A blender, you know, a machine that blends food.

M: 搅拌机,你知道,就是一种用来搅拌食物的机器。

W: Uh, yes, of course, the electric kitchen appliance.

W: 呃,知道,当然知道,就是那种电动厨房用具。

M: Exactly, this one is state-of-the-art. I've been meaning to buy one for a while, and I did thorough research on which specific model to get. I read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews. Anyway, it's amazing.

M: 没错,这台是最先进的。我想买一台已经有一段时间了,而且还认真研究了到底该买哪个具体型号。我大概看了上百条网上的用户评价。总之,它太棒了。

W: Really? What could be so special about it? I mean it's just a blender.

W: 真的吗?它到底有什么特别的?我的意思是,它不就是一台搅拌机吗?

M: Well, basically, it's just a very good one. It feels heavy and sturdy and well made. It also has lots of power and can easily cut and crush practically anything. This way, the soups and juices I make come out really fine and smooth, with no lumpy bits.

M: 嗯,基本上,它就是一台非常好的搅拌机。拿在手里感觉很重、很结实,做工也很好。它的功率也很大,几乎什么东西都能轻松切碎、碾碎。这样一来,我做出来的汤和果汁都特别细腻顺滑,没有结块。

W: Um, I see. I've never thought of getting one myself. It sounds like the kind of thing that, for me personally, I would rarely use.

W: 嗯,我明白了。我从来没想过自己也买一台。听起来,这种东西对我个人来说应该很少会用到。

M: I've never had one before, and now that I do. I use it all the time. I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning, but three or four times a week, and it feels fantastic. It's a really healthy habit.

M: 我以前从来没有搅拌机,但现在有了以后,我一直在用。我早上会做新鲜果汁,也不是每天早上都做,但每周会做三四次,而且感觉特别棒。这真是个非常健康的习惯。

W: I can imagine that must feel quite satisfying. I can picture you getting all creative in the kitchen and trying out a multitude of different ingredient combinations, and it's obviously going to be healthier than buying packaged juice from a supermarket.

W: 我能想象那一定很令人满足。我都能想象你在厨房里发挥创意,尝试各种各样的食材组合,而且这显然会比从超市买包装果汁更健康。

M: It's so much healthier. It's not even close. Did you know that store-bought juice is like 10% sugar?

M: 健康多了,根本不是一个级别的。你知道吗,商店里买的果汁含糖量大约是百分之十?

W: Right, so then you bought it for the health benefits?

W: 好吧,所以你买它主要是为了健康方面的好处?

M: Mostly yes. Basically, it allows me to have a more varied diet with a far wider assortment of nutrients, because it's not only fruit in my morning juices you see. I can also throw in vegetables, nuts, yogurts, cereals, anything that tickles my fancy.

M: 主要是的。基本上,它让我能拥有更加多样化的饮食,摄入种类丰富得多的营养,因为你看,我早上的果汁里可不只是水果。我还可以加蔬菜、坚果、酸奶、谷物,任何我喜欢的东西都行。

1.
A)Read numerous comments users put online.
B)Blended all his food without using a machine.
C)Searched for the state-of-the-art models of blenders.
D)Did thorough research on the price of kitchen appliances.
【题目】

What does the man say he did before buying the blender?

【翻译】

男士说他在购买搅拌机之前做了什么?

  • A) 阅读了大量用户在网上发布的评论。
  • B) 不使用机器搅拌他所有的食物。
  • C) 搜索了最先进的搅拌机型号。
  • D) 对厨房电器的价格做了彻底的研究。
【答案】
A(细节题)Read numerous comments users put online.
【定位】
P5

I did thorough research on which specific model to get. I read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews.

我对具体该买哪个型号做了彻底的研究。我大概读了几百条网上的用户评论。

【信号】

男方自述买前动作。这题问"the man...did before buying",信号就是男方在介绍这台机器时,自己说出的那串"我做了……"。关键落点是 I read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews,"读了几百条网上用户评论"正是买前的准备动作。

【替换】
  • read through maybe hundreds of online user reviewsRead numerous comments users put online.几百条=numerous,评论=comments
【排除】
  • C)原词陷阱录音里 state-of-the-art 是男方用来夸"这台机器很先进"(this one is state-of-the-art),并不是说他"去搜寻顶配机型"。选项 Searched for the state-of-the-art models of blenders. 把这个原词搬过来拼成一个他没做的动作,听到 state-of-the-art 就选就中招。

    借用原文:this one is state-of-the-art

  • D)偷换概念男方确实说了 I did thorough research,但研究的是 which specific model to get(该买哪个型号),不是价格。选项 Did thorough research on the price of kitchen appliances. 偷偷把研究对象换成 price,听到"thorough research"就选就被偷换。

    借用原文:I did thorough research on which specific model to get

  • B)与原文相反选项 Blended all his food without using a machine. 说"不用机器就把食物搅了",可整段重点恰恰是他买了一台机器(blender 就是机器)。这和录音说的正相反,属无中生有又反向的陷阱。
2.
A)Eating any blended food.
B)Buying a blender herself.
C)Using machines to do her cooking.
D)Making soups and juices for herself.
【题目】

What does the woman say she has never thought of doing?

【翻译】

女士说她从未想过做什么?

  • A) 吃任何搅拌食品。
  • B) 自己购买一台搅拌机。
  • C) 使用机器来做饭。
  • D) 自己制作汤和果汁。
【答案】
B(细节题)Buying a blender herself.
【定位】
P8

I've never thought of getting one myself.

我自己从没想过要买一台。

【信号】

女方应答中的never thought原话。题干问 never thought of doing,录音里女方原话就是 I've never thought of getting one myself,"never thought of"与题干几乎一字不差,这句被问者的直接应答就是答案句。one 指上文的 blender。

【替换】
  • never thought of getting one myselfBuying a blender herself.getting one=buying a blender,myself=herself
【排除】
  • D)张冠李戴soups and juices 是男方说的(他做的汤和果汁 the soups and juices I make),不是女方"从没想过给自己做"的事。选项 Making soups and juices for herself. 把男方做的事安到女方头上,是张冠李戴。

    借用原文:the soups and juices I make

  • C)原词陷阱录音里 machine 出现在介绍 blender 时(a machine that blends food),女方并没说自己"从没想过用机器做饭"。选项 Using machines to do her cooking. 借 machine 这个原词编了个她没表过的态。

    借用原文:a machine that blends food

  • A)未提及选项 Eating any blended food. 蹭了 blend 这个话题词,但女方从没说"从没想过吃任何搅拌食物",她说的是没想过"买机器"。属未提及。
3.
A)Cooking every meal creatively in the kitchen.
B)Paying due attention to his personal hygiene.
C)Eating breakfast punctually every morning.
D)Making his own fresh fruit juice regularly.
【题目】

What does the man say is a really healthy habit?

【翻译】

男士说什么是真正健康的习惯?

  • A) 在厨房里创意性地烹饪每一餐。
  • B) 适当关注他的个人卫生。
  • C) 每天早上准时吃早餐。
  • D) 定期自制新鲜果汁。
【答案】
D(细节题)Making his own fresh fruit juice regularly.
【定位】
P9

I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning, but three or four times a week, and it feels fantastic. It's a really healthy habit.

我早上会榨一杯鲜果汁,也许不是每天早上,而是一周三四次,感觉棒极了。这是个真正健康的习惯。

【信号】

healthy habit前紧挨的那件事。答案信号是 It's a really healthy habit 里的 it——它回指紧挨着前面那件事 I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning...three or four times a week。男方把"经常自榨果汁"明确称作"真正健康的习惯"。

【替换】
  • I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning, but three or four times a weekMaking his own fresh fruit juice regularly.一周三四次=regularly
【排除】
  • A)与原文相反Cooking every meal creatively in the kitchen. 借的 creative in the kitchen 是女方的猜想 getting all creative in the kitchen,不是男方说的健康习惯;而且 every meal(每一餐)比录音的"一周三四次"夸张得多,频率过头。

    借用原文:getting all creative in the kitchen

  • C)原词陷阱录音男方只说早上榨果汁、还"不是每天早上",Eating breakfast punctually every morning. 借 morning 这个原词,编出"每天准时吃早餐",既无 breakfast 也无 punctually,是原词陷阱。

    借用原文:I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning

  • B)未提及Paying due attention to his personal hygiene. 讲"个人卫生",整段对话围绕果汁与营养,从没谈卫生,属未提及,靠跑题词凑数。
4.
A)One-tenth of it is sugar.
B)It looks healthy and attractive.
C)One's fancy may be tickled by it.
D)It contains an assortment of nutrients.
【题目】

What do we learn about store-bought juice from the conversation?

【翻译】

从对话中我们了解到关于商店购买的果汁的什么信息?

  • A) 其中十分之一是糖。
  • B) 它看起来健康且有吸引力。
  • C) 它可能会引起人们的兴趣。
  • D) 它包含各种营养成分。
【答案】
A(细节题)One-tenth of it is sugar.
【定位】
P11

Did you know that store-bought juice is like 10% sugar?

你知道店里买的果汁差不多有百分之十是糖吗?

【信号】

对象store-bought juice配数字。题干对象 store-bought juice 在录音里只在 store-bought juice is like 10% sugar 这一句被正面描述,且带一个具体比例 10%。"对象点名 + 出现数字"双重信号,这句就是答案句。

【替换】
  • store-bought juice is like 10% sugarOne-tenth of it is sugar.10%=One-tenth
【排除】
  • D)偷换概念It contains an assortment of nutrients. 借的 assortment of nutrients 是男方夸"自榨晨间果汁"的(a far wider assortment of nutrients),对象是自榨果汁,不是店买果汁。题干问的是 store-bought,对象被偷换。

    借用原文:a far wider assortment of nutrients

  • C)原词陷阱One's fancy may be tickled by it. 盗用 tickles my fancy,但录音里这词形容的是男方往自榨果汁里加 anything that tickles my fancy,和店买果汁无关,是张冠李戴的原词陷阱。

    借用原文:anything that tickles my fancy

  • B)与原文相反It looks healthy and attractive. 蹭了 healthy 一词,但录音说"自榨"比店买更健康(It's so much healthier),从没说"店买果汁看起来健康诱人",attractive 更是没提,属未提及兼相反。

    借用原文:It's so much healthier

Questions 5 to 8 are based on the conversation you have just heard.

W: Today we have a very interesting guest. Mr. Thomas Benjamin Grimm, the mayor of Berkton, is here to talk about his job and responsibilities overseeing this charming village. Mr. Grimm, thank you for being here.

W: 今天我们请到了一位非常有趣的嘉宾。伯克顿的市长托马斯·本杰明·格里姆先生来到这里,和我们谈谈他的工作,以及负责管理这个迷人的村庄所承担的责任。格里姆先生,感谢您今天来到这里。

M: Thank you for having me.

M: 谢谢您的邀请。

W: I'd like to start by stating the obvious. Berkton has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and this has happened under your watch. Just how did you achieve this?

W: 我想先从一个显而易见的事实说起。伯克顿已经成为全国最受欢迎的旅游目的地之一,而这一切都是在您的任期内发生的。您究竟是如何做到的?

M: The achievement belongs to all the residents of Berkton. It was a shared effort where everybody pitched in for the communal good.

M: 这项成就属于伯克顿的所有居民。这是大家共同努力的结果,每个人都为公共利益贡献了自己的力量。

W: But how did this change happen? In about 10 years, Berkton has gone from a relatively unheard-of sleepy village to a must-see destination.

W: 但这种变化是如何发生的呢?大约10年的时间里,伯克顿从一个相对默默无闻、寂静沉睡的村庄,变成了一个必游之地。

M: Yes, the change has truly been remarkable. Berkton was always fortunate to be endowed with such a beautiful natural allure. The Ambury Hills above the village remain untouched by human development, and the Sonora Valley just below it is equally stunning. The transformation commenced in a town hall meeting in spring 2008 over 10 years ago now, when an overwhelming majority of neighbors voted in favor of "Motion 836". This legislative proposal essentially set out to harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in Berkton. The idea was that if all the properties looked a certain way with shared design features, then a village as a whole would look more beautiful. And it worked.

M: 是的,这种变化确实非常显著。伯克顿一直很幸运,拥有如此美丽的自然风光。村庄上方的安布里山丘仍未受到人类开发,而下方的索诺拉谷同样美不胜收。这场转变始于十多年前,也就是2008年春天的一次市政厅会议。当时,绝大多数居民投票赞成了“第836号动议”。这项立法提案的核心目标,是让伯克顿所有房屋的外观风格协调统一。这个想法是,如果所有房产都采用某种统一的外观和共同的设计元素,那么整个村庄看起来就会更加美丽。事实证明,这确实奏效了。

W: It certainly did. I'm looking now at a before-and-after photo, and the change is truly remarkable. It's hard to believe it's the same place. And how do the neighbors feel now?

W: 确实如此。我现在正在看一张改造前后的照片,这种变化真的非常显著。很难相信这是同一个地方。那么,居民们现在对此有什么感受呢?

M: Great pride, I would say.

M: 我想,他们感到非常自豪。

W: But what about the multitudes of visitors now crowding the streets? Is everyone happy about that?

W: 但现在有成群的游客挤满街道,这又怎么样呢?大家对此都感到满意吗?

M: The tourists we receive are a blessing, as they have completely revitalized our local economy. Every visitor is warmly welcome.

M: 我们迎来的游客是上天的恩赐,因为他们让我们的地方经济彻底恢复了活力。每一位游客都会受到热情欢迎。

B)How the residents will turn Berkton into a tourist attraction.
C)How charming he himself considers the village of Berkton to be.
D)How he has led people of Berkton to change the village radically.
【题目】

What is the question the woman asked Mr. Grimm after the introduction?

【翻译】

这位女士在介绍之后向Grimm先生提出了什么问题?

  • A) 他如何使自己成为广受欢迎的Berkton市长。
  • B) 居民将如何把Berkton变成旅游胜地。
  • C) 他本人认为Berkton村有多迷人。
  • D) 他如何带领Berkton的人们彻底改变了这个村庄。
【答案】
D(细节题)How he has led people of Berkton to change the village radically.
【定位】
P3

Berkton has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and this has happened under your watch. Just how did you achieve this?

Berkton 已成为全国最受欢迎的旅游目的地之一,而这一切就发生在你的任期之内。你究竟是怎么做到这一点的呢?

【信号】

主持人在介绍后抛出的直接提问句。答案句的信号是主持人(W)在开场介绍之后说出的那句直接发问 Just how did you achieve this?——"this" 回指上一句 "Berkton 变成热门旅游地",所以她问的正是 "你如何促成了这场转变"。对话题里,主持人 "介绍之后的第一个问句" 就是答案落点。

【替换】
  • how did you achieve thisHow he has led people of Berkton to change the village radicallythis=把村子变旅游地,即 "彻底改变村庄"
  • this has happened under your watchhe has led people of Berkton"在你任期内发生"=市长带领大家做成
【排除】
  • A)原词陷阱A 用了原文反复出现的 popular as the mayor of Berkton 这些原词,但主持人问的是 "如何改变村子",不是 "市长本人如何变得受欢迎";原文 popular tourist destinations 说的是 "村子" 受欢迎,A 偷换成 "市长" 受欢迎,听到 popular 就选会中招。

    借用原文:Berkton has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country

  • B)张冠李戴B 说的是 the residents will turn Berkton into a tourist attraction,主语是居民、且是 "将要" 做的将来事;可主持人问的是 "你(市长)如何做到了已经发生的转变",B 张冠李戴(把焦点从市长换成居民)又错了时态。

    借用原文:The achievement belongs to all the residents of Berkton.

  • C)原词陷阱C 说 How charming he himself considers the village of Berkton to be,借用了原文 this charming village 里的 charming 一词;但 charming 是主持人介绍时用的,且主持人问的是 "如何做到转变",不是 "市长觉得村子多迷人",C 把客观描述偷换成 "市长的主观评价"。

    借用原文:overseeing this charming village

6.
A)It was developed only to a limited extent.
B)It was totally isolated as a sleepy village.
C)It was relatively unknown to the outside.
D)It was endowed with rare natural resources.
【题目】

What do we learn about Berkton 10 years ago?

【翻译】

关于10年前的Berkton我们了解到什么?

  • A) 它的开发程度很有限。
  • B) 它完全与世隔绝,是个沉睡的村庄。
  • C) 它在外界相对不为人知。
  • D) 它拥有稀有的自然资源。
【答案】
C(细节题)It was relatively unknown to the outside.
【定位】
P5

In about 10 years, Berkton has gone from a relatively unheard-of sleepy village to a must-see destination.

大约 10 年间,Berkton 从一个相对默默无闻的沉睡小村,变成了一个必看的旅游胜地。

【信号】

"from…to…" 中 from 后即 10 年前的状态。答案信号是主持人这句 gone from a relatively unheard-of sleepy village to a must-see destination 里的 "from…to…" 结构:from 后面 a relatively unheard-of sleepy village 正是 "10 年前" 的起点状态,to 后面才是现在。问 "10 年前",答案就在 from 之后。

【替换】
  • a relatively unheard-of sleepy villageIt was relatively unknown to the outsideunheard-of=unknown,同义替换
【排除】
  • A)未提及A 说 developed only to a limited extent(只在有限程度上被开发),但原文只说村子 "没名气/沉睡",从没说它 "被开发到有限程度";这是凭 "沉睡村" 的印象自行脑补的开发说法,原文无据。
  • B)原词陷阱B 用了原文原词 sleepy village,但把 relatively unheard-of(相对没名气)夸大成 totally isolated(完全孤立);relatively(相对)被偷换成 totally(完全),程度被拔高,与原文不符。

    借用原文:a relatively unheard-of sleepy village

  • D)原词陷阱D 说 endowed with rare natural resources,借用了原文 endowed with such a beautiful natural allure 的 endowed 与 natural;但原文说的是 "自然之美(allure)" 而非 "罕见资源(resources)",且这句讲的不是 "10 年前的状态",与题问的时间也不对。

    借用原文:Berkton was always fortunate to be endowed with such a beautiful natural allure.

7.
A)All the properties in Berkton were designed by the same architect.
B)The majority of residents lived in harmony with their neighbours.
C)The majority of residents enjoyed cosy housing conditions.
D)All the houses in Berkton looked aesthetically similar.
【题目】

What resulted from the passing of the legislative proposal "Motion 836"?

【翻译】

立法提案"836号动议"的通过产生了什么结果?

  • A) Berkton的所有房产都由同一位建筑师设计。
  • B) 大多数居民与邻居和睦相处。
  • C) 大多数居民享有舒适的住房条件。
  • D) Berkton的所有房屋在美学上看起来相似。
【答案】
D(细节题)All the houses in Berkton looked aesthetically similar.
【定位】
P6

This legislative proposal essentially set out to harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in Berkton. The idea was that if all the properties looked a certain way with shared design features, then a village as a whole would look more beautiful. And it worked.

这项立法提案本质上是要统一 Berkton 所有房屋的外观审美。其设想是:如果所有房产都按某种方式、带着共同的设计特征呈现,那么整个村庄看起来会更美。而它奏效了。

【信号】

提案后紧跟的 "统一外观"+"奏效了"。答案信号有两处:一是紧跟提案的目的句 harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses(统一所有房子的外观),二是收尾的 And it worked.(它奏效了)——"奏效" 确认了这个 "外观统一" 的效果真的实现了,正是提案带来的结果。

【替换】
  • harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in BerktonAll the houses in Berkton looked aesthetically similar"统一外观"="外观看起来相似"
  • shared design featuresaesthetically similar"共同设计特征"=外观相似
【排除】
  • A)原词陷阱A 说 designed by the same architect,借用了原文 shared design features 里的 design;但原文说的是 "共同的设计特征",从没说 "出自同一个建筑师",A 把 "设计相似" 偷换成 "同一人设计",是听到 design 就选的陷阱。

    借用原文:if all the properties looked a certain way with shared design features

  • B)偷换概念B 说 lived in harmony with their neighbours(邻里和睦相处),疑似借了原文 harmonize(统一)与 an overwhelming majority of neighbors voted 里 neighbors 的影子;但原文是说邻居们 "投票通过提案",harmonize 指 "统一房屋外观" 而非 "邻里关系和睦",B 偷换了概念。

    借用原文:an overwhelming majority of neighbors voted in favor of "Motion 836"

  • C)未提及C 说 enjoyed cosy housing conditions(享受舒适的居住条件),但原文谈的是房子 "外观是否统一、村子是否更美",从没谈居民住得舒不舒适;cosy(舒适)是凭 "漂亮房子" 联想出来的,原文无据。

A)They have helped boost the local economy.
B)They have made the residents unusually proud.

  • B) 他们使居民感到异常自豪。
  • C) 他们为其知名度做出了相当大的贡献。
  • D) 他们给村里的每个人都带来了快乐。
【答案】
A(细节题)They have helped boost the local economy.
【定位】
P10

The tourists we receive are a blessing, as they have completely revitalized our local economy.

我们接待的游客是一种福气,因为他们彻底重振了我们当地的经济。

【信号】

因果词 as 之后即原因。答案信号是因果连词 as:它前面是判断 The tourists we receive are a blessing,后面 they have completely revitalized our local economy 才是 "为什么是福气" 的真正原因。问 Why,答案就在 as 引出的从句里。

【替换】
  • they have completely revitalized our local economyThey have helped boost the local economyrevitalize=boost,同义替换
【排除】
  • B)张冠李戴B 说 made the residents unusually proud,借用了原文前面 Great pride 的 pride;但那是回答 "邻居们现在感受如何" 时说的居民对 "村子变美" 的自豪,不是 "游客" 带来的、也不是 "游客是福气" 的原因,B 张冠李戴、错配了问题。

    借用原文:Great pride, I would say.

  • C)原词陷阱C 说 contributed considerably to its popularity,借了原文反复出现的 popular/popularity 影子;但说话人给出的 "福气" 原因是 "重振经济",不是 "游客提升了知名度",C 把答案换到了名气这条线,与 as 后的原因不符。

    借用原文:Berkton has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country

  • D)过度推断D 说 brought happiness to everyone in the village,疑似从 Every visitor is warmly welcome 的友好氛围里推出来;但原文只说 "重振经济/欢迎游客",没说 "给村里每个人带来快乐",everyone/happiness 都是脑补放大,过度推断。

    借用原文:Every visitor is warmly welcome.

Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear two passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear three or four questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 1 with a single line through the centre.
Questions 9 to 11 are based on the passage you have just heard.

Researchers in the US have created a remote-controlled robot that is so small it can walk on the top of a US penny. In research published in the journal Science Robotics, a team at Northwestern University said the crab-like robot is 0.5mm wide. Researchers described it as the smallest-ever remote-controlled walking robot.

美国研究人员研制出一种遥控机器人,小到可以在一枚美国一美分硬币的顶部行走。在《科学机器人学》杂志发表的一项研究中,西北大学的一个团队表示,这种蟹状机器人宽度仅为0.5毫米。研究人员称,这是迄今为止最小的遥控行走机器人。

The tiny robot can bend, twist, crawl, walk, turn, and even jump without the use of complex hardware or special power. The engineers said this is because the robot is powered by the elastic property of its body. To construct the robot, the researchers used a shape-memory alloy material that transforms to its remembered shape when heated.

这种微型机器人无需复杂的硬件或特殊动力,就能弯曲、扭转、爬行、行走、转弯,甚至跳跃。工程师表示,这是因为机器人依靠其身体的弹性特性驱动。为了制造这种机器人,研究人员使用了一种形状记忆合金材料,这种材料受热后会恢复到其记忆中的形状。

Using a laser, the team is able to heat the robot at specific parts of its body, causing it to change shape. As the robot deforms and goes back to its original shape, it creates movement from one place to another. "Because these structures are so tiny, the rate of cooling is very fast," project lead Professor John A. Rogers said. "In fact, reducing the sizes of these robots allows them to run faster."

团队利用激光加热机器人身体的特定部位,使其发生形变。当机器人变形并恢复到原来的形状时,就会产生从一个地方移动到另一个地方的运动。项目负责人约翰·A·罗杰斯教授说:“由于这些结构非常微小,冷却速度非常快。事实上,缩小这些机器人的尺寸可以使它们运行得更快。”

While the research is still in the exploratory phase, the team believes that technology could lead to micro-sized robots that can perform practical tasks in tightly confined spaces. "You might imagine micro-robots as agents to repair or assemble small structures or machines in industry or as surgical assistants to clear clogged arteries, to stop internal bleeding, or to eliminate cancerous tumours—all in minimally invasive procedures," Rogers said.

尽管这项研究仍处于探索阶段,但团队相信,这项技术可能促成能够在极其狭窄空间内执行实际任务的微型机器人。罗杰斯说:“你可以设想,微型机器人可作为执行者,在工业领域维修或组装微小的结构或机器;也可以作为手术助手,在微创手术中清除堵塞的动脉、止住内出血或消除癌性肿瘤。”

  • B)未提及选项B说靠 a special type of tiny motor 运转,但录音通篇没提任何 motor(马达),供能来源明确是身体弹性;这是凭"机器人=有马达"的常识硬编出来的无中生有项。
  • C)原词陷阱选项C把录音里 from one place to another 和 memory(来自 shape-memory)两处原词拼在一起,说机器人 moves…by memory;但原文是靠形状记忆合金"变形再复原"才产生移动,并非"靠记忆移动",属偷换概念。

【排除】
  • A)过度推断选项A说 Replace humans in exploratory tasks,借了录音里 in the exploratory phase 的 exploratory 一词;但原文只说研究"尚处探索阶段",从未说要"取代人类",replace humans 是凭空拔高的过度推断。

    借用原文:While the research is still in the exploratory phase

  • C)原词陷阱选项C说 Explore the structure of clogged arteries,盗用了录音举例里的 clogged arteries;但 to clear clogged arteries 只是诸多设想用途中的一个例子,且原文是"清理"血管不是"探查结构",把举例之一冒充成总的未来预期,以偏概全。

    借用原文:as surgical assistants to clear clogged arteries

  • D)原词陷阱选项D说 Assist surgeons in highly complex surgery,盗用录音 as surgical assistants 的医疗设想;但原文设想的是充当外科助手做清血管/止血等"微创"操作,并未说"辅助高度复杂的手术",highly complex 是被改大的程度词,同样属举例被偷换。

Questions 12 to 15 are based on the passage you have just heard.

I don't want to boast or anything, but I have always considered myself something of an elite sleeper. Given the opportunity, I will sleep for marathon stretches, and can doze through the most extreme situations. On one very rough ferry crossing, on the route to the Isles of Scilly, for example, my traveling companion spent the entire 3-hour-ride throwing up in the bathroom, while I dozed happily on a plastic chair.

我不想自夸什么的,但我一直认为自己算得上是睡眠精英。只要有机会,我就会一睡数小时,甚至在最极端的情况下也能打瞌睡。例如,在一次前往锡利群岛的航线上,渡轮经历了一段非常颠簸的航程,我的同伴在整个3小时的旅途中都待在卫生间里呕吐,而我却惬意地坐在塑料椅上打盹。

Unfortunately, it has come to my attention that I am not an elite sleeper after all. It seems I am just lazy, because elite sleepers are defined as the approximately 3 percent of the population who are biologically programmed to need less sleep than the rest of us. According to a study that came out in March, elite sleepers have rare genetic changes, which means they can sleep fewer hours than mere mortals, without any risk of cognitive decline.

遗憾的是,我最近才意识到自己终究算不上睡眠精英。看来我只是懒,因为睡眠精英的定义是:约占总人口3%、在生理上注定比我们其他人需要更少睡眠的人。根据一项于3月公布的研究,睡眠精英存在罕见的基因变化,这意味着他们睡眠时间少于普通人,却不会面临认知能力下降的风险。

It may not be possible to change your own genes, but can you train yourself to need less sleep? Is there a non-biological way to reach elite sleeper status? I have spent the past year trying to answer that question. Not for fun, I should add, but because having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep, for which I still have a great passion.

改变自己的基因或许不可能,但你能训练自己减少睡眠需求吗?有没有一种非生物学的方法可以成为睡眠精英?过去一年里,我一直在努力回答这个问题。需要补充说明的是,这并不是为了好玩,而是因为生孩子严重打乱了我的睡眠,而我至今仍然非常热爱睡觉。

For a while, I assumed I'd be forced to become one of those people who jump out of bed at the crack of dawn. After a year of tough scientific study, however, I have discovered being forced to get up early in the morning is very different from being an early bird.

有一段时间,我以为自己不得不变成那种天一亮就从床上跳起来的人。然而,经过一年的艰苦科学研究,我发现,被迫早起与早起的人是两回事。

A)She threw up in the bathroom.
B)She slept during the entire ride.
C)She dozed off for a few minutes.
D)She boasted of her marathon race.
【题目】

What does the speaker say she did on her ride to the Isles of Scilly?

【翻译】

说话者说她在前往锡利群岛的途中做了什么?

  • A) 她在浴室里呕吐了。
  • B) 她在整个行程中都在睡觉。
  • C) 她打了几分钟瞌睡。
  • D) 她吹嘘自己的马拉松比赛。
【答案】
B(细节题)She slept during the entire ride.
【定位】
P1

On one very rough ferry crossing, on the route to the Isles of Scilly, for example, my traveling companion spent the entire 3-hour-ride throwing up in the bathroom, while I dozed happily on a plastic chair.

比如有一次在去锡利群岛的航线上、那趟非常颠簸的渡轮航程里,我的旅伴整整三个小时都在卫生间呕吐,而我却在一把塑料椅上美美地睡着了。

【信号】

对比连词 while 分开「她」和「旅伴」。while I dozed happily on a plastic chair 里的 while 是答案信号:它把两个人的行为对照开——while 前是旅伴 throwing up in the bathroom,while 后才是「我」做的事。听到 while、whereas 这类对比词,要立刻分清前后各是谁。

【替换】
  • I dozed happily on a plastic chairShe slept during the entire ride.doze 等于睡着,且时长沿用前文 entire 3-hour-ride
【排除】
  • A)张冠李戴She threw up in the bathroom. 盗用了录音原词 throwing up in the bathroom,但那是 while 前「我的旅伴」做的事,被安到了「她」头上,典型听到原词就想选的陷阱。

    借用原文:my traveling companion spent the entire 3-hour-ride throwing up in the bathroom

  • C)原词陷阱She dozed off for a few minutes. 借用了 doze 这个原词,但把时长偷改成「几分钟」,与原文 entire 3-hour-ride 的整程相反,是在「睡多久」上做手脚。

    借用原文:I dozed happily on a plastic chair

  • D)原词陷阱She boasted of her marathon race. 拼了两个扎眼原词:boast 来自开头 I don't want to boast、marathon 来自 sleep for marathon stretches(指「长时间地睡」,非比赛)。它们都不在「乘船」场景里,且 marathon stretches 根本不是「马拉松比赛」。

    借用原文:I will sleep for marathon stretches

A)They are mostly immune to cognitive impairment.
B)They can sleep soundly during a rough ride at sea.
C)They are genetically determined to need less sleep.

What do we learn from the passage about elite sleepers?

【翻译】

我们从这段文字中了解到关于精英睡眠者的什么信息?

  • A) 他们大多对认知障碍免疫。
  • B) 他们能在海上颠簸的行程中安然入睡。
  • C) 他们在基因上被决定需要更少的睡眠。
  • D) 他们约占人口的百分之十三。
【答案】
C(细节题)They are genetically determined to need less sleep.
【定位】
P2

elite sleepers are defined as the approximately 3 percent of the population who are biologically programmed to need less sleep than the rest of us.

精英睡眠者被定义为大约占人口3%、在生物学上被设定为比我们其余人需要更少睡眠的那群人。

【信号】

下定义句式 are defined as。elite sleepers are defined as 是答案信号:are defined as 是典型的下定义句式,问某类人特征时,定义句就是答案句。定义里的核心是 biologically programmed to need less sleep。

【替换】
  • biologically programmed to need less sleepThey are genetically determined to need less sleep.biologically programmed 等于 genetically determined
【排除】
  • A)原词陷阱They are mostly immune to cognitive impairment. 借了 cognitive 一词(原文 cognitive decline),但原文只说他们少睡时 without any risk of cognitive decline——是「不因少睡而认知衰退」,并非泛泛地「对认知损害免疫」,把条件性表述夸大成绝对免疫。

    借用原文:without any risk of cognitive decline

  • B)张冠李戴They can sleep soundly during a rough ride at sea. 把第1段讲者本人乘船 very rough ferry crossing 时睡着的事,安到了「精英睡眠者 They」这类人头上,主语张冠李戴;何况第2段恰恰说她其实不是精英睡眠者。

    借用原文:On one very rough ferry crossing

  • D)原词陷阱They constitute about 13 percent of the population. 盗用了原文的「百分比加人口」结构 approximately 3 percent of the population,却把数字从3%偷改成13%,是典型数字陷阱。

    借用原文:the approximately 3 percent of the population

改变自己的基因也许不可能,但你能训练自己变得需要更少睡眠吗?有没有一种非生物学的途径达到精英睡眠者的地位?我过去一年就一直在试图回答这个问题。

【信号】

讲者亲口发问加紧跟「我花一年回答这个问题」。答案信号有二:一是讲者自己抛出的问句 can you train yourself to need less sleep?;二是其后 I have spent the past year trying to answer that question 把「过去一年」与这个问句直接挂钩,明确指认它就是她要弄清的那个问题。

【替换】
  • can you train yourself to need less sleep?Whether one can train themselves to sleep less.疑问句改写成 Whether 间接问句,you 变 one
【排除】
  • A)原词陷阱Whether there is a way to reach elite status. 借了原文问句里的 reach elite sleeper status,但原文紧接着用 that question 回指的重点是「非生物途径即训练自己少睡」;D 才精确对上她真正探究的内容,A 停在表层措辞。

    借用原文:Is there a non-biological way to reach elite sleeper status?

  • B)与原文相反Whether it is possible to modify one's genes. 盗用 change your own genes,但原文是 It may not be possible to change your own genes, but——改基因被 but 否定掉、用来引出真正的问题,选它正好取了被推翻的那半句。

    借用原文:It may not be possible to change your own genes

  • C)答非所问Whether having a baby impacts one's passion. 用了原文的 having a baby 和 a great passion,但原文这两词出现在解释「她为何研究」的背景里,并非她要弄清的那个疑问句,属答非所问。

    借用原文:having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep, for which I still have a great passion

然而,经过一年艰苦的科学研究,我发现被迫早起和真正的早起者是非常不同的两回事。

【信号】

转折 however 加标记词 I have discovered。答案信号有二:however 把前文「我以为我会被迫成为早起者」的旧假设推翻;紧跟的 I have discovered 直接挂出结论。转折后加 discovered 标记的那句就是答案句。

【替换】
  • being forced to get up early in the morning is very different from being an early birdBeing forced to rise early differs from being an early bird.get up early 等于 rise early,is very different from 等于 differs from
【排除】
  • A)未提及It is in fact quite possible to nurture a passion for sleep. 拼用了原文的 passion(a great passion),但原文 passion 指「她对睡眠本就有热情」,从未说「可以去培养」,更不是这次研究的发现,属无中生有。

    借用原文:for which I still have a great passion

  • B)原词陷阱Babies can severely disrupt their parents' sleep patterns. 几乎照搬原文 having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep(disrupt 原词复现),但那是第3段交代的「为什么做研究」,而题问「研究后发现了什么」,时间、逻辑位置都错,答非所问。

    借用原文:having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep

  • D)与原文相反New parents are forced to jump out of bed at the crack of dawn. 盗用 jump out of bed at the crack of dawn,但原文这是她 I assumed I'd be forced to become 的旧假设,紧接着 however 就把它否定了,取它等于选了被推翻的内容。

If you read an article about a controversial issue, do you think you'd realise if it had changed your beliefs? No one knows your own mind like you do—it seems obvious that you would know if your beliefs had shifted. And yet a new paper in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology suggests that we actually have very poor awareness of our own belief change, meaning that we will tend to underestimate how much we've been swayed by a convincing article.

如果你读了一篇有关争议性问题的文章,你认为自己会意识到它是否改变了你的信念吗?没有人比你更了解自己的想法——你似乎理所当然会知道自己的信念是否发生了变化。然而,《实验心理学季刊》发表的一篇新论文表明,我们实际上很难觉察到自己的信念变化,这意味着我们往往会低估自己受一篇有说服力的文章影响的程度。

The researchers recruited over two hundred undergraduates across two studies and focused on their beliefs about whether physical punishment of kids is an effective form of discipline. The students reported their initial beliefs about whether physical punishment is an effective way to discipline a child on a scale from "1" completely disbelieve to "9" completely believe. Several weeks later they were given one of two research-based texts to read: each was several pages long and either presented the arguments and data in favour of physical punishment or against it. After this, the students answered some questions to test their comprehension and memory of the text. Then, the students again scored their belief about whether physical punishment is effective or not. Finally, the researchers asked them to recall what their belief had been at the start of the study.

研究人员在两项研究中招募了两百多名本科生,重点考察他们对于体罚孩子是否是一种有效管教方式的看法。学生们首先在“1”(完全不相信)到“9”(完全相信)的量表上报告自己对于体罚是否是管教孩子的有效方式的初始看法。几周后,他们被安排阅读两篇基于研究的文章中的一篇:每篇文章都有数页之长,分别陈述支持或反对体罚的论据和数据。读完后,学生们回答了一些问题,以测试他们对文章内容的理解和记忆。随后,学生们再次对自己认为体罚是否有效进行评分。最后,研究人员要求他们回忆研究开始时自己的看法。

The students' belief about physical punishment changed when they read a text that argued against their own initial position. Crucially, the memory of their initial belief was shifted in the direction of their new belief—in fact, their memory was closer to their current belief than their original belief. The more their belief had changed, the larger this memory bias tended to be, suggesting the students were relying on their current belief to deduce the initial belief. The memory bias was unrelated to the measures of how well they'd understood or recalled the text, suggesting these factors didn't play a role in memory of initial belief or awareness of belief change.

当学生们读到一篇主张反对其最初立场的文章时,他们对于体罚的看法发生了变化。关键在于,他们对自己初始看法的记忆也朝着新看法的方向发生了偏移——事实上,他们记忆中的初始看法比起原先的看法,更接近当前的看法。他们的看法变化越大,这种记忆偏差通常也越大,这表明学生们可能是在依靠当前的看法来推断最初的看法。记忆偏差与他们对文章的理解程度或回忆程度无关,这说明这些因素并未影响他们对初始看法的记忆,也未影响他们对信念变化的觉察。

The researchers concede that this research was about changes to mostly moderate beliefs—it's likely the findings would be different in the context of changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs. However, our beliefs on most topics are in the moderate range, and as we go about our daily lives reading informative material, these intriguing findings suggest we are mostly ignorant of how what we just read has updated and altered our own position.

研究人员承认,这项研究考察的是主要处于中等程度的信念变化——如果是在极端或根深蒂固的信念发生变化的情况下,研究结果很可能会有所不同。然而,我们对大多数问题的看法都处于中等范围,而且当我们在日常生活中阅读信息性材料时,这些耐人寻味的发现表明,我们大多没有意识到刚刚读到的内容如何更新并改变了自己的立场。

As the American population grows, so does the number of American moms. But, more than a century after Mother's Day became an official holiday, even as that number increases, the share of the American population who are mothers is at the lowest point in a quarter century.

随着美国人口增长,美国母亲的人数也在增加。但是,在母亲节成为法定节日一个多世纪之后,尽管这一人数不断上升,母亲在美国总人口中所占的比例却处于四分之一世纪以来的最低点。

It's frequently noted that fertility rates are falling sharply in richer countries. But the less-observed consequence of this trend is that the decline in births can also mean a decline in motherhood in America. According to my analysis of data from the Census Bureau, the decline of American motherhood is real, occurring very quickly, and may continue for some time yet.

人们经常注意到,较富裕国家的生育率正在急剧下降。然而,这一趋势一个较少被关注的后果是,出生人数减少也可能意味着美国母亲人数的减少。根据我对人口普查局数据的分析,美国母亲人数的下降确实存在,发生得非常迅速,而且可能还会持续一段时间。

Not only are moms making up less of the population, but their characteristics are changing too, and in a way that might be linked to their proportional decline. Moms today tend to be older than in the past. Just looking at recent years, the change in age-specific birth rates has been drastic.

母亲不仅在总人口中所占的比例越来越低,她们的特征也在发生变化,而且这种变化可能与她们比例上的下降有关。如今的母亲往往比过去年长。仅从近几年来看,不同年龄段的生育率变化就十分显著。

In just the past few years, the peak childbearing age range for American women has advanced from that of 25-29 to that of 30-34. Meanwhile, childbearing among women under 20 has fallen by half or more, while childbearing among women 35 and older is rising.

就在过去几年中,美国女性生育高峰年龄段已从25至29岁推移到30至34岁。同时,20岁以下女性的生育率下降了一半甚至更多,而35岁及以上女性的生育率正在上升。

One positive consequence of this age shift is that a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise children. Less positively, however, many women find that, as they age, they can't have as many kids as they would like. Plus, having children later in life can increase the risk of health complications. These finer points aside, one major consequence of the older-moms trend is that fewer years of a woman's life are spent as a mother. This means that, at any given time, a larger share of women, and thus of the whole population, will report not having children in government surveys. In other words, later motherhood means less motherhood.

这一年龄变化带来的一个积极后果是,新生母亲中有更大比例在经济上已做好抚养孩子的准备。然而,不那么积极的是,许多女性发现,随着年龄增长,她们无法生育自己希望拥有的那么多孩子。此外,晚年生育还会增加出现健康并发症的风险。撇开这些更细致的问题不谈,母亲年龄增长趋势的一个主要后果是,女性一生中作为母亲度过的年数减少了。这意味着,在任何特定时点,接受政府调查的女性中,以及因此在全部人口中,报告自己没有孩子的人所占比例都会更高。换句话说,晚育意味着较少的母亲经历。

Even as motherhood rates decline, Mother's Day, of course, will endure. In fact, despite the demographic shift, retail spending on the holiday appears to be rising. It is hard to say if Mother's Day spending is rising more than one would expect, given that the American population keeps growing, but one factor might be that the proportion of women who are the mothers of adult children is rising. And those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the moms they no longer live with.

即使母亲比例正在下降,母亲节当然仍将延续下去。事实上,尽管人口结构发生了变化,这一节日的零售消费似乎正在增加。很难说母亲节消费的增长是否超出了美国人口持续增长这一因素所能带来的预期,但其中一个原因可能是,成年子女的母亲在女性中的比例正在上升。而这些成年子女在庆祝那些已经不再与自己共同生活的母亲时,可能会更加慷慨。

A)American moms have been increasingly inclined to live alone.
B)The American population has been on the rise in the past 25 years.
C)American motherhood has actually been on the decline.
D)The fertility rates in America have in fact been falling sharply.
【题目】

What does the speaker conclude from her analysis of the Census Bureau's data?

【翻译】

说话者从她对人口普查局数据的分析中得出了什么结论?

  • A) 美国母亲越来越倾向于独自生活。
  • B) 过去25年美国人口一直在增长。
  • C) 美国母亲身份实际上一直在减少。
  • D) 美国的生育率实际上一直在急剧下降。
【答案】
C(细节题)American motherhood has actually been on the decline.
【定位】
P2

According to my analysis of data from the Census Bureau, the decline of American motherhood is real, occurring very quickly, and may continue for some time yet.

根据我对普查局数据的分析,美国 "当母亲" 这件事的减少是真实存在的,正在迅速发生,而且可能还会持续一段时间。

【信号】

题干原话回扣 + 断言语气 "is real"。这句以 According to my analysis of data from the Census Bureau 直接回扣题干的 "analysis of the Census Bureau's data",紧接着用断言语气 the decline of American motherhood is real,"is real(确实如此)" 这种作者明确下判断的口吻就是结论信号。

【替换】
  • the decline of American motherhood is realAmerican motherhood has actually been on the decline名词/动词换说法,意思同为 "母亲减少"
【排除】
  • A)未提及American moms have been increasingly inclined to live alone 说母亲越来越爱独居,全文谈的是母亲数量/比例下降,从未提母亲的居住方式,属凭空添加的内容。
  • B)原词陷阱The American population has been on the rise 借用了原文 As the American population grows 的原词,人口确实在涨,但题干问的是作者从数据得出的 "结论",作者的结论是母亲在减少,人口上涨只是铺垫前提,不是结论本身。

    借用原文:As the American population grows

  • D)原词陷阱The fertility rates in America have in fact been falling sharply 用了原文 fertility rates are falling sharply 的原词,可作者的结论对象是 "motherhood(当母亲)" 而非 "fertility rates(生育率)"——原文里生育率下降是 "frequently noted(常被提到)" 的旧事,作者要讲的 "less-observed(少被注意)" 的新结论是母亲减少。

    借用原文:fertility rates are falling sharply

A)More new mothers tend to take greater care of their children.
B)More new mothers are economically able to raise children.
C)A larger proportion of women take pride in their children.
D)A larger proportion of women really enjoy motherhood.

What does the speaker say is a positive consequence of the age shift in childbearing?

【翻译】

说话者认为生育年龄推移带来的积极后果是什么?

  • A) 更多新手母亲倾向于更悉心照顾她们的孩子。

One positive consequence of this age shift is that a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise children.

这一年龄变化带来的一个正面后果是:更大比例的新晋母亲在经济上已为养育孩子做好了准备。

【信号】

作者亲口贴的 "positive consequence" 标签。这句开头 One positive consequence of this age shift is that 与题干用词几乎一字不差,"positive consequence" 是作者明确贴上的 "好处" 标签,标签之后的内容就是要找的答案句。

【替换】
  • a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise childrenMore new mothers are economically able to raise children"economically prepared"≈"economically able",比例≈more
【排除】
  • A)未提及More new mothers tend to take greater care of their children 说更多新母亲更用心照顾孩子,原文讲的好处是 "经济上准备好",从没说她们更会/更用心照顾,属凭空添加。
  • C)原词陷阱A larger proportion of women take pride in their children 借用了原文 a larger proportion 的原词造出熟悉感,但作者说的是 "economically prepared",根本没提 "take pride(自豪)",比例的对象被悄悄换成了情感。

    借用原文:a larger proportion of new mothers

  • D)原词陷阱A larger proportion of women really enjoy motherhood 说更大比例女性享受当母亲,同样套用了 "a larger proportion" 的措辞,但原文的好处是经济准备,没说享受,且全文末句 later motherhood means less motherhood 的基调也不是在讲享受。

    借用原文:a larger proportion of new mothers

P6

It is hard to say if Mother's Day spending is rising more than one would expect ... but one factor might be that the proportion of women who are the mothers of adult children is rising. And those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the moms they no longer live with.

很难说母亲节开销是否涨得超出预期……但一个因素可能是:身为成年子女之母亲的女性占比在上升。而这些成年子女在为已不同住的母亲庆祝时,可能花钱更大方。

【信号】

给原因的标记 "one factor might be"。这句用 one factor might be that 明确引出原因,与题干 "one explanation" 对应;后一句 those adult children may spend more generously 进一步点明是成年子女花钱多,原因信号清晰。

【替换】
  • those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the momsMore mothers have adult children celebrating the holiday因果同一件事换主语视角表述
【排除】
  • A)过度推断The meaning of motherhood has changed considerably 说母亲节/母亲身份的含义大变,原文只说开销上涨的一个具体原因是成年子女花钱,并未上升到 "含义改变" 这种概括判断,属过度拔高。
  • B)张冠李戴More and more mothers go shopping to treat themselves 借了原文 "spend/spending" 的花钱语境,但原文是 those adult children may spend more generously——掏钱的是成年子女,不是母亲自己购物犒劳自己,主体张冠李戴。

    借用原文:those adult children may spend more generously

  • D)与原文相反The number of American mothers has been growing steadily 说母亲数量稳步增长,这与全文结论 the decline of American motherhood is real 正好相反;况且作者还专门指出 given that the American population keeps growing 的是人口、不是母亲,选项把对象与方向都弄反了。

Questions 22 to 25 are based on the recording you have just heard.

Since NASA published a paper in 1989 claiming that houseplants can soak up pollution and toxic chemicals, businesses and homeowners have increasingly invested in greenery to help clean their air. But, a new analysis suggests it could actually take more than 1,000 plants per square meter to gain a benefit any greater than simply opening a couple of windows.

自美国国家航空航天局(NASA)于1989年发表一篇论文,声称室内植物能够吸收污染物和有毒化学物质以来,企业和房主越来越多地投资于绿植,以帮助净化空气。然而,一项新的分析表明,要获得任何超过简单打开几扇窗户所能带来的益处,实际上可能需要每平方米摆放超过1000株植物。

The problem lies in the fact that NASA conducted their tests in sealed containers that do not simulate the conditions in most people's homes or offices. The space agency was primarily concerned about keeping the air fresh for astronauts cut off in biospheres or space stations and helping to combat "sick building syndrome", which had become a problem due to the super insulated and energy efficient offices of the late 1970s. By the early 1980s, workers regularly complained of skin rashes, sleeplessness, headaches, and allergies as they breathed in toxic chemicals from paints and plastics.

问题在于,NASA是在密封容器中进行测试的,而这种环境并不能模拟大多数人家中或办公室的实际情况。该航天机构主要关注的是如何为被隔绝在生物圈或空间站中的宇航员保持空气清新,以及帮助应对“病态建筑综合征”。由于20世纪70年代末的办公室采用了高度隔热且节能的设计,这种综合征逐渐成为一个问题。到了20世纪80年代初,员工经常抱怨出现皮疹、失眠、头痛和过敏症状,因为他们吸入了来自油漆和塑料的有毒化学物质。

NASA found that certain plants could remove chemicals from the air, and even today, garden centers recommend the plants for air cleaning properties. However, a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years found that houseplants in a normal environment have little impact. In fact, natural ventilation is far better at cleaning the air. The researchers also calculated the clean air delivery rate for plants in the studies they analyzed and found that the rate at which plants disperse the compounds was well below the usual rate of air exchange in a normal building, caused by the movement of people coming and going, opening doors and windows.

NASA发现,某些植物能够去除空气中的化学物质,直到今天,园艺中心仍会因这些植物具有净化空气的功效而予以推荐。然而,一项对历时30年、涵盖数十项研究的新评估发现,在正常环境中,室内植物的影响微乎其微。事实上,自然通风在净化空气方面要有效得多。研究人员还计算了所分析研究中植物的清洁空气输送率,发现植物分散这些化合物的速率远低于普通建筑通常的空气交换速率;后者是由人员进出以及开关门窗等活动造成的。

Many of the studies did show a reduction in the concentration of volatile organic compounds over time, which is likely why people have seized on them to praise the air purifying virtues of plants. But the researchers' calculation showed it would take 10 to 1,000 plants per square meter of floor space to compete with the air cleaning capacity of a building's air handling system or even just a couple of open windows in a house. In contrast, NASA's sealed experiment recommended one pot plant per 100 square feet.

许多研究确实显示,挥发性有机化合物的浓度会随着时间推移而降低,这可能就是人们抓住这一点来赞美植物净化空气功效的原因。但研究人员的计算表明,要与建筑空气处理系统,甚至住宅中仅仅打开几扇窗户的空气净化能力相匹敌,每平方米地面面积需要摆放10至1000株植物。相比之下,NASA的密封实验建议每100平方英尺摆放一盆植物。

This is certainly an example of how scientific findings can be misleading or misinterpreted over time. But it's also a great example of how scientific research should continually reexamine and question findings to get closer to the ground truth of understanding what's actually happening.

这无疑说明,科学发现可能会随着时间推移而产生误导或被误解。但这也很好地体现了科学研究应当不断重新审视并质疑已有发现,从而更加接近对实际情况的真实理解。

I read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews」(我对具体该买哪个型号做了彻底的研究。我大概读了几百条网上的用户评论),靠男方自述买前动作定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(read through maybe hundreds of online user reviews ↔ Read numerous comments users put online.)。其余选项:C 项属原词陷阱(录音里 state-of-the-art 是男方用来夸"这台机器很先进"(this one is state-of-the-art),并不是说他"去搜寻顶配机型"。选项 Searched for the state-of-the-art models of blenders. 把这个原词搬过来拼成一个他没做的动作,听到 state-of-the-art 就选就中招);D 项属偷换概念(男方确实说了 I did thorough research,但研究的是 which specific model to get(该买哪个型号),不是价格。选项 Did thorough research on the price of kitchen appliances. 偷偷把研究对象换成 price,听到"thorough research"就选就被偷换);B 项属与原文相反(选项 Blended all his food without using a machine. 说"不用机器就把食物搅了",可整段重点恰恰是他买了一台机器(blender 就是机器)。这和录音说的正相反,属无中生有又反向的陷阱),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 2 题:What does the woman say she has never thought of doing? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 2 题是细节题,正确答案 B)Buying a blender herself。答案句出自录音「I've never thought of getting one myself」(我自己从没想过要买一台),靠女方应答中的never thought原话定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(never thought of getting one myself ↔ Buying a blender herself.)。其余选项:D 项属张冠李戴(soups and juices 是男方说的(他做的汤和果汁 the soups and juices I make),不是女方"从没想过给自己做"的事。选项 Making soups and juices for herself. 把男方做的事安到女方头上,是张冠李戴);C 项属原词陷阱(录音里 machine 出现在介绍 blender 时(a machine that blends food),女方并没说自己"从没想过用机器做饭"。选项 Using machines to do her cooking. 借 machine 这个原词编了个她没表过的态);A 项属未提及(选项 Eating any blended food. 蹭了 blend 这个话题词,但女方从没说"从没想过吃任何搅拌食物",她说的是没想过"买机器"。属未提及),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 3 题:What does the man say is a really healthy habit? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 3 题是细节题,正确答案 D)Making his own fresh fruit juice regularly。答案句出自录音「I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning, but three or four times a week, and it feels fantastic. It's a really healthy habit」(我早上会榨一杯鲜果汁,也许不是每天早上,而是一周三四次,感觉棒极了。这是个真正健康的习惯),靠healthy habit前紧挨的那件事定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(I make a fresh fruit juice in the morning, maybe not every morning, but three or four times a week ↔ Making his own fresh fruit juice regularly.)。其余选项:A 项属与原文相反(Cooking every meal creatively in the kitchen. 借的 creative in the kitchen 是女方的猜想 getting all creative in the kitchen,不是男方说的健康习惯;而且 every meal(每一餐)比录音的"一周三四次"夸张得多,频率过头);C 项属原词陷阱(录音男方只说早上榨果汁、还"不是每天早上",Eating breakfast punctually every morning. 借 morning 这个原词,编出"每天准时吃早餐",既无 breakfast 也无 punctually,是原词陷阱);B 项属未提及(Paying due attention to his personal hygiene. 讲"个人卫生",整段对话围绕果汁与营养,从没谈卫生,属未提及,靠跑题词凑数),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 4 题:What do we learn about store-bought juice from the conversation? 答案是什么?为什么选 A?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 4 题是细节题,正确答案 A)One-tenth of it is sugar。答案句出自录音「Did you know that store-bought juice is like 10% sugar?」(你知道店里买的果汁差不多有百分之十是糖吗?),靠对象store-bought juice配数字定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(store-bought juice is like 10% sugar ↔ One-tenth of it is sugar.)。其余选项:D 项属偷换概念(It contains an assortment of nutrients. 借的 assortment of nutrients 是男方夸"自榨晨间果汁"的(a far wider assortment of nutrients),对象是自榨果汁,不是店买果汁。题干问的是 store-bought,对象被偷换);C 项属原词陷阱(One's fancy may be tickled by it. 盗用 tickles my fancy,但录音里这词形容的是男方往自榨果汁里加 anything that tickles my fancy,和店买果汁无关,是张冠李戴的原词陷阱);B 项属与原文相反(It looks healthy and attractive. 蹭了 healthy 一词,但录音说"自榨"比店买更健康(It's so much healthier),从没说"店买果汁看起来健康诱人",attractive 更是没提,属未提及兼相反),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 5 题:What is the question the woman asked Mr. Grimm after the introduction? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 5 题是细节题,正确答案 D)How he has led people of Berkton to change the village radically。答案句出自录音「Berkton has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and this has happened under your watch. Just how did you achieve this?」(Berkton 已成为全国最受欢迎的旅游目的地之一,而这一切就发生在你的任期之内。你究竟是怎么做到这一点的呢?),靠主持人在介绍后抛出的直接提问句定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(how did you achieve this ↔ How he has led people of Berkton to change the village radically;this has happened under your watch ↔ he has led people of Berkton)。其余选项:A 项属原词陷阱(A 用了原文反复出现的 popular as the mayor of Berkton 这些原词,但主持人问的是 "如何改变村子",不是 "市长本人如何变得受欢迎";原文 popular tourist destinations 说的是 "村子" 受欢迎,A 偷换成 "市长" 受欢迎,听到 popular 就选会中招);B 项属张冠李戴(B 说的是 the residents will turn Berkton into a tourist attraction,主语是居民、且是 "将要" 做的将来事;可主持人问的是 "你(市长)如何做到了已经发生的转变",B 张冠李戴(把焦点从市长换成居民)又错了时态);C 项属原词陷阱(C 说 How charming he himself considers the village of Berkton to be,借用了原文 this charming village 里的 charming 一词;但 charming 是主持人介绍时用的,且主持人问的是 "如何做到转变",不是 "市长觉得村子多迷人",C 把客观描述偷换成 "市长的主观评价"),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 6 题:What do we learn about Berkton 10 years ago? 答案是什么?为什么选 C?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 6 题是细节题,正确答案 C)It was relatively unknown to the outside。答案句出自录音「In about 10 years, Berkton has gone from a relatively unheard-of sleepy village to a must-see destination」(大约 10 年间,Berkton 从一个相对默默无闻的沉睡小村,变成了一个必看的旅游胜地),靠"from…to…" 中 from 后即 10 年前的状态定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(a relatively unheard-of sleepy village ↔ It was relatively unknown to the outside)。其余选项:A 项属未提及(A 说 developed only to a limited extent(只在有限程度上被开发),但原文只说村子 "没名气/沉睡",从没说它 "被开发到有限程度";这是凭 "沉睡村" 的印象自行脑补的开发说法,原文无据);B 项属原词陷阱(B 用了原文原词 sleepy village,但把 relatively unheard-of(相对没名气)夸大成 totally isolated(完全孤立);relatively(相对)被偷换成 totally(完全),程度被拔高,与原文不符);D 项属原词陷阱(D 说 endowed with rare natural resources,借用了原文 endowed with such a beautiful natural allure 的 endowed 与 natural;但原文说的是 "自然之美(allure)" 而非 "罕见资源(resources)",且这句讲的不是 "10 年前的状态",与题问的时间也不对),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 7 题:What resulted from the passing of the legislative proposal "Motion 836"? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 7 题是细节题,正确答案 D)All the houses in Berkton looked aesthetically similar。答案句出自录音「This legislative proposal essentially set out to harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in Berkton. The idea was that if all the properties looked a certain way with shared design features, then a village as a whole would look more beautiful. And it worked」(这项立法提案本质上是要统一 Berkton 所有房屋的外观审美。其设想是:如果所有房产都按某种方式、带着共同的设计特征呈现,那么整个村庄看起来会更美。而它奏效了),靠提案后紧跟的 "统一外观"+"奏效了"定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(harmonize the aesthetic appearance of all the houses in Berkton ↔ All the houses in Berkton looked aesthetically similar;shared design features ↔ aesthetically similar)。其余选项:A 项属原词陷阱(A 说 designed by the same architect,借用了原文 shared design features 里的 design;但原文说的是 "共同的设计特征",从没说 "出自同一个建筑师",A 把 "设计相似" 偷换成 "同一人设计",是听到 design 就选的陷阱);B 项属偷换概念(B 说 lived in harmony with their neighbours(邻里和睦相处),疑似借了原文 harmonize(统一)与 an overwhelming majority of neighbors voted 里 neighbors 的影子;但原文是说邻居们 "投票通过提案",harmonize 指 "统一房屋外观" 而非 "邻里关系和睦",B 偷换了概念);C 项属未提及(C 说 enjoyed cosy housing conditions(享受舒适的居住条件),但原文谈的是房子 "外观是否统一、村子是否更美",从没谈居民住得舒不舒适;cosy(舒适)是凭 "漂亮房子" 联想出来的,原文无据),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 8 题:Why does the man say the tourists are a blessing to Berkton? 答案是什么?为什么选 A?

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 9 题:What does the passage say about a team of researchers at Northwestern University? 答案是什么?为什么选 A?

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 10 题:What did the researchers say about the robot they created? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 10 题是细节题,正确答案 D)It is powered by the elastic property of its body。答案句出自录音「The engineers said this is because the robot is powered by the elastic property of its body」(工程师们说,这是因为机器人由其身体的弹性属性提供动力),靠因果 because + powered by定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(powered by the elastic property of its body ↔ powered by the elastic property of its body)。其余选项:A 项属与原文相反(选项A说靠 complex hardware 变形,盗用了录音原词 complex hardware;但原文明说机器人做各种动作 without the use of complex hardware,是"不靠"复杂硬件,选项把否定说成了依靠,方向相反);B 项属未提及(选项B说靠 a special type of tiny motor 运转,但录音通篇没提任何 motor(马达),供能来源明确是身体弹性;这是凭"机器人=有马达"的常识硬编出来的无中生有项);C 项属原词陷阱(选项C把录音里 from one place to another 和 memory(来自 shape-memory)两处原词拼在一起,说机器人 moves…by memory;但原文是靠形状记忆合金"变形再复原"才产生移动,并非"靠记忆移动",属偷换概念),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 11 题:What do the researchers expect their robots to do in the future? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 11 题是细节题,正确答案 B)Perform tasks in tightly confined spaces。答案句出自录音「While the research is still in the exploratory phase, the team believes that technology could lead to micro-sized robots that can perform practical tasks in tightly confined spaces」(尽管研究仍处于探索阶段,但团队相信,这项技术可能催生出能够在狭小空间内执行实际任务的微型机器人),靠believes + could 引出展望落点定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(perform practical tasks in tightly confined spaces ↔ Perform tasks in tightly confined spaces)。其余选项:A 项属过度推断(选项A说 Replace humans in exploratory tasks,借了录音里 in the exploratory phase 的 exploratory 一词;但原文只说研究"尚处探索阶段",从未说要"取代人类",replace humans 是凭空拔高的过度推断);C 项属原词陷阱(选项C说 Explore the structure of clogged arteries,盗用了录音举例里的 clogged arteries;但 to clear clogged arteries 只是诸多设想用途中的一个例子,且原文是"清理"血管不是"探查结构",把举例之一冒充成总的未来预期,以偏概全);D 项属原词陷阱(选项D说 Assist surgeons in highly complex surgery,盗用录音 as surgical assistants 的医疗设想;但原文设想的是充当外科助手做清血管/止血等"微创"操作,并未说"辅助高度复杂的手术",highly complex 是被改大的程度词,同样属举例被偷换),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 12 题:What does the speaker say she did on her ride to the Isles of Scilly? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 13 题:What do we learn from the passage about elite sleepers? 答案是什么?为什么选 C?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 13 题是细节题,正确答案 C)They are genetically determined to need less sleep。答案句出自录音「elite sleepers are defined as the approximately 3 percent of the population who are biologically programmed to need less sleep than the rest of us」(精英睡眠者被定义为大约占人口3%、在生物学上被设定为比我们其余人需要更少睡眠的那群人),靠下定义句式 are defined as定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(biologically programmed to need less sleep ↔ They are genetically determined to need less sleep.)。其余选项:A 项属原词陷阱(They are mostly immune to cognitive impairment. 借了 cognitive 一词(原文 cognitive decline),但原文只说他们少睡时 without any risk of cognitive decline——是「不因少睡而认知衰退」,并非泛泛地「对认知损害免疫」,把条件性表述夸大成绝对免疫);B 项属张冠李戴(They can sleep soundly during a rough ride at sea. 把第1段讲者本人乘船 very rough ferry crossing 时睡着的事,安到了「精英睡眠者 They」这类人头上,主语张冠李戴;何况第2段恰恰说她其实不是精英睡眠者);D 项属原词陷阱(They constitute about 13 percent of the population. 盗用了原文的「百分比加人口」结构 approximately 3 percent of the population,却把数字从3%偷改成13%,是典型数字陷阱),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 14 题:What has the speaker been trying to find out over the past year? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?

I have spent the past year trying to answer that question」(改变自己的基因也许不可能,但你能训练自己变得需要更少睡眠吗?有没有一种非生物学的途径达到精英睡眠者的地位?我过去一年就一直在试图回答这个问题),靠讲者亲口发问加紧跟「我花一年回答这个问题」定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(can you train yourself to need less sleep? ↔ Whether one can train themselves to sleep less.)。其余选项:A 项属原词陷阱(Whether there is a way to reach elite status. 借了原文问句里的 reach elite sleeper status,但原文紧接着用 that question 回指的重点是「非生物途径即训练自己少睡」;D 才精确对上她真正探究的内容,A 停在表层措辞);B 项属与原文相反(Whether it is possible to modify one's genes. 盗用 change your own genes,但原文是 It may not be possible to change your own genes, but——改基因被 but 否定掉、用来引出真正的问题,选它正好取了被推翻的那半句);C 项属答非所问(Whether having a baby impacts one's passion. 用了原文的 having a baby 和 a great passion,但原文这两词出现在解释「她为何研究」的背景里,并非她要弄清的那个疑问句,属答非所问),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 15 题:What has the speaker discovered after a year of tough scientific study? 答案是什么?为什么选 C?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 15 题是细节题,正确答案 C)Being forced to rise early differs from being an early bird。答案句出自录音「After a year of tough scientific study, however, I have discovered being forced to get up early in the morning is very different from being an early bird」(然而,经过一年艰苦的科学研究,我发现被迫早起和真正的早起者是非常不同的两回事),靠转折 however 加标记词 I have discovered定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(being forced to get up early in the morning is very different from being an early bird ↔ Being forced to rise early differs from being an early bird.)。其余选项:A 项属未提及(It is in fact quite possible to nurture a passion for sleep. 拼用了原文的 passion(a great passion),但原文 passion 指「她对睡眠本就有热情」,从未说「可以去培养」,更不是这次研究的发现,属无中生有);B 项属原词陷阱(Babies can severely disrupt their parents' sleep patterns. 几乎照搬原文 having a baby has severely disrupted my sleep(disrupt 原词复现),但那是第3段交代的「为什么做研究」,而题问「研究后发现了什么」,时间、逻辑位置都错,答非所问);D 项属与原文相反(New parents are forced to jump out of bed at the crack of dawn. 盗用 jump out of bed at the crack of dawn,但原文这是她 I assumed I'd be forced to become 的旧假设,紧接着 however 就把它否定了,取它等于选了被推翻的内容),均可排除。

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 17 题是细节题,正确答案 A)Their belief about physical punishment changed。答案句出自录音「The students' belief about physical punishment changed when they read a text that argued against their own initial position」(当学生读到一篇与自己最初立场相反的文章时,他们对体罚的信念发生了改变),靠题干条件原话复现处即答案句定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(The students' belief about physical punishment changed ↔ Their belief about physical punishment changed.)。其余选项:B 项属答非所问(选项"他们的记忆把他们推向当前信念"蹭了录音 the memory of their initial belief was shifted in the direction of their new belief,但那是"信念已改变"之后另起的现象(记忆偏移),不是题干问的"读到反对文章时直接发生了什么";记忆偏移是次级结果,答非所问);C 项属与原文相反(选项说"他们最初信念的记忆回来了(came back)",但录音明确说记忆 was shifted in the direction of their new belief、closer to their current belief than their original belief,即对原信念的记忆被改写、偏离了,而非"回来了",方向恰好相反);D 项属未提及(选项说"他们受体罚的亲身经历困扰着他们",录音通篇只讲对体罚"是否有效"的信念与记忆,从未提学生本人"受过体罚的经历(experiences of physical punishment)",更没说被 haunted(困扰),属凭 physical punishment 这个话题词臆造),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 18 题:What did the researchers concede concerning their findings? 答案是什么?为什么选 C?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 18 题是细节题,正确答案 C)They may not apply to changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs。答案句出自录音「The researchers concede that this research was about changes to mostly moderate beliefs—it's likely the findings would be different in the context of changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs」(研究者承认,这项研究针对的大多是温和信念的变化——很可能在极端或根深蒂固的信念发生变化时,研究结论会有所不同),靠concede 后的让步句即答案定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(it's likely the findings would be different in the context of changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs ↔ They may not apply to changes to extreme or deeply held beliefs.)。其余选项:A 项属与原文相反(选项说结论"与温和信念几乎无关(little to do with moderate beliefs)",蹭了录音 mostly moderate beliefs,但录音恰恰说这项研究就是"关于温和信念"的,结论正适用于温和信念,A 把适用对象说成了无关,与原文相反);B 项属未提及(选项说研究结论"没有反映对体罚看法的变化",但录音第三段恰恰证明了看法会变(The students' belief about physical punishment changed),研究者承认的是"对极端信念可能不适用",从没说"没反映看法变化",属臆造);D 项属过度推断(选项说"没有更多证据,结论难以改变人们立场",听感上像研究的谨慎口吻,但录音研究者承认的是适用范围(极端信念可能不适用),从未提"需要更多证据才能改变立场",evidence 的说法是凭学术语感臆造的),均可排除。

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 20 题:What does the speaker say is a positive consequence of the age shift in childbearing? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 20 题是细节题,正确答案 B)More new mothers are economically able to raise children。答案句出自录音「One positive consequence of this age shift is that a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise children」(这一年龄变化带来的一个正面后果是:更大比例的新晋母亲在经济上已为养育孩子做好了准备),靠作者亲口贴的 "positive consequence" 标签定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(a larger proportion of new mothers are economically prepared to raise children ↔ More new mothers are economically able to raise children)。其余选项:A 项属未提及(More new mothers tend to take greater care of their children 说更多新母亲更用心照顾孩子,原文讲的好处是 "经济上准备好",从没说她们更会/更用心照顾,属凭空添加);C 项属原词陷阱(A larger proportion of women take pride in their children 借用了原文 a larger proportion 的原词造出熟悉感,但作者说的是 "economically prepared",根本没提 "take pride(自豪)",比例的对象被悄悄换成了情感);D 项属原词陷阱(A larger proportion of women really enjoy motherhood 说更大比例女性享受当母亲,同样套用了 "a larger proportion" 的措辞,但原文的好处是经济准备,没说享受,且全文末句 later motherhood means less motherhood 的基调也不是在讲享受),均可排除。

英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 21 题是细节题,正确答案 C)More mothers have adult children celebrating the holiday。答案句出自录音「It is hard to say if Mother's Day spending is rising more than one would expect ... but one factor might be that the proportion of women who are the mothers of adult children is rising. And those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the moms they no longer live with」(很难说母亲节开销是否涨得超出预期……但一个因素可能是:身为成年子女之母亲的女性占比在上升。而这些成年子女在为已不同住的母亲庆祝时,可能花钱更大方),靠给原因的标记 "one factor might be"定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(those adult children may spend more generously when it comes to celebrating the moms ↔ More mothers have adult children celebrating the holiday)。其余选项:A 项属过度推断(The meaning of motherhood has changed considerably 说母亲节/母亲身份的含义大变,原文只说开销上涨的一个具体原因是成年子女花钱,并未上升到 "含义改变" 这种概括判断,属过度拔高);B 项属张冠李戴(More and more mothers go shopping to treat themselves 借了原文 "spend/spending" 的花钱语境,但原文是 those adult children may spend more generously——掏钱的是成年子女,不是母亲自己购物犒劳自己,主体张冠李戴);D 项属与原文相反(The number of American mothers has been growing steadily 说母亲数量稳步增长,这与全文结论 the decline of American motherhood is real 正好相反;况且作者还专门指出 given that the American population keeps growing 的是人口、不是母亲,选项把对象与方向都弄反了),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 22 题:What does NASA's 1989 paper claim houseplants can do? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 22 题是细节题,正确答案 B)Absorb poisonous chemicals。答案句出自录音「Since NASA published a paper in 1989 claiming that houseplants can soak up pollution and toxic chemicals, businesses and homeowners have increasingly invested in greenery to help clean their air」(自从 NASA 于 1989 年发表一篇论文,宣称室内植物能吸走污染和有毒化学物质以来,企业和房主便越来越多地投资绿植来帮助净化空气),靠claiming 后接论文主张定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(soak up pollution and toxic chemicals ↔ Absorb poisonous chemicals.)。其余选项:A 项属与原文相反(Add to indoor toxic pollutants. 盗用了录音里的 toxic chemicals(有毒化学物)一词,却把『吸走』反说成『增加』,与论文主张正好相反);C 项属未提及(Beautify the home environment. 是植物『好看』的生活常识,录音从头到尾只谈净化空气、从未提美化,属凭常识硬填);D 项属原词陷阱(Soak up surrounding moisture. 借用了答案句 soak up 这个动词,却把吸收对象从『污染物』偷换成『水分(moisture)』,录音并未说植物吸潮),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 23 题:What is said to be the problem with NASA's study reported in its 1989 paper? 答案是什么?为什么选 B?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 23 题是细节题,正确答案 B)It was based on experiments under conditions unlike those in most homes or offices。答案句出自录音「The problem lies in the fact that NASA conducted their tests in sealed containers that do not simulate the conditions in most people's homes or offices」(问题在于,NASA 是在密封容器里做的实验,而这种容器并不能模拟大多数人家里或办公室的环境),靠The problem lies in 明示缺陷定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(sealed containers that do not simulate the conditions in most people's homes or offices ↔ It was based on experiments under conditions unlike those in most homes or offices.)。其余选项:A 项属原词陷阱(NASA did experiments in sealed containers resembling the super insulated offices of 1970s. 把录音真出现的 sealed containers 和 super insulated 两处原词硬拼,还说密封舱『像 1970 年代办公室』——录音说密封舱『不模拟』普通环境,二者恰恰不像,属张冠李戴式拼接);C 项属过度推断(NASA conducted tests in outer space whose environment is different from ours. 借了录音 space stations 的太空联想,但录音说实验是在 sealed containers 里做的,从没说在 outer space 做测试,属无中生有);D 项属未提及(It drew its conclusion without any contrastive data from other experiments. 说该研究『缺对照数据』,录音指出的缺陷是『实验条件不真实』,从未提缺对照数据,属未提及),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 24 题:What is the finding of a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years? 答案是什么?为什么选 A?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 24 题是细节题,正确答案 A)Natural ventilation proves much more efficient for cleaning the air than houseplants。答案句出自录音「However, a new evaluation of dozens of studies spanning 30 years found that houseplants in a normal environment have little impact. In fact, natural ventilation is far better at cleaning the air」(然而,一项跨越 30 年、对数十项研究的新评估发现,正常环境下的室内植物作用甚微。事实上,自然通风在净化空气方面要好得多),靠However 转折后是真结论定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(natural ventilation is far better at cleaning the air ↔ Natural ventilation proves much more efficient for cleaning the air than houseplants.)。其余选项:B 项属原词陷阱(Houseplants disperse chemical compounds more quickly with people moving around. 盗用了录音 disperse the compounds 和 movement of people 两处原词,却说『植物因人走动散得更快』;录音的意思是建筑本身的换气率(人来人往开门窗)远高于植物的散播率,是在贬低植物,而非夸植物散得快,方向被偷换);C 项属过度推断(Natural ventilation turns out to be most effective with doors and windows wide open. 借了录音 opening doors and windows 的原词,却加上『most effective / wide open』这种录音没说的最高级和条件;录音只说通风比植物好,没说门窗全开才最有效);D 项属偷换概念(Houseplants in a normal environment rarely have any adverse impact on the air. 几乎照搬了录音 houseplants in a normal environment have little impact,但把 little impact(作用甚微)偷换成 rarely have any adverse impact(几乎无害)——录音说的是植物『没多大净化作用』,不是说植物『无害』,含义跑偏),均可排除。
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 25 题:What does NASA's sealed experiment recommendation exemplify in scientists' pursuit of truth? 答案是什么?为什么选 D?
英语六级2024年6月第2套听力第 25 题是推断题,正确答案 D)The necessity of continually reexamining and challenging findings。答案句出自录音「This is certainly an example of how scientific findings can be misleading or misinterpreted over time. But it's also a great example of how scientific research should continually reexamine and question findings to get closer to the ground truth of understanding what's actually happening」(这无疑是一个例子,说明科学发现如何会随时间被误导或误读。但它也是一个绝佳的例子,说明科学研究应当不断重新审视、质疑已有结论,以更接近事情真相的理解),靠But also 转向真正落点定位。正确项是答案句的同义替换(scientific research should continually reexamine and question findings ↔ The necessity of continually reexamining and challenging findings.)。其余选项:A 项属与原文相反(The root cause for misinterpretations of scientific findings. 抓的是 But 之前那句 can be misleading or misinterpreted,且录音只说会被误读、从未分析『根本原因(root cause)』,既取错重心又无中生有);B 项属原词陷阱(The difficulty in understanding what's actually happening. 盗用了录音结尾 understanding what's actually happening 这串原词,却把它说成『理解之难(difficulty)』;录音说的是科研应不断质疑以『接近』真相,重点是方法而非『难』,属截取原词答非所问);C 项属未提及(The steps to be taken in arriving at any conclusion with certainty. 说『下确定结论的步骤』,录音强调的恰恰是『不断重审质疑、逼近真相』这种开放过程,并未给出『确定结论的步骤』,且 certainty 与录音口吻相反,属未提及兼相反),均可排除。
